"Excuse me, has anyone seen classmate Tetsuya?"

A powerful duelist uses their momentum to overwhelm their opponent, and a true duelist must maintain their momentum no matter how much pressure they face in a duel.
If you can't even keep your tempo and rhythm, your deck won't answer you. If you lose before you start, it's as good as a loss."
The teacher said a lot, but ultimately it all boiled down to one word: practice.
No amount of experience or skill can substitute for practice.
To that end, the teacher recommended some academy-designed practice decks, where students had to draw specific combos in the fewest draws possible. The decks were split into Beginner, Intermediate, and Elite levels by difficulty.
"This is just the first stage," the teacher said.
"Our goal for the first semester is to pass the Beginner challenge. If you progress quickly, you might challenge the Elite deck in the second semester.
The Elite deck requires you to reliably draw the specified combo from a 40-card deck.
And that's just practice—actual duels are different. Next semester, we'll train you to perform under your opponent's pressure."
"Success!"
Before the teacher finished, a student with jellyfish-like hair jumped up excitedly from the back row.
"The Elite challenge isn't so hard, teacher!" the jellyfish-head grinned, showing off the five cards he drew at once. "Got it in one go!"
Teacher: "???"
The teacher adjusted his glasses, nearly slipping off his nose, and stared in disbelief at the proud jellyfish-head making a V-sign to the class.
First day and he clears the Elite challenge in one try? What is this, a natural-born card body?
Maybe you should teach this class instead. I'll listen.
