Qisala and her group arrived at the castle gate and saw two bodyguards in black suits standing there.

"Show me your metal star, or leave!"

Kisara, Yugi, Jonouchi, and Peacock Dance all showed off their metal stars.

"Yes, that's right. Congratulations to the four of you for passing the preliminaries. Now you can enter Mr. Pegasus's castle!"

Kisara and the other three went in first. Honda, Anzi, and Bakura were about to follow them in but were stopped by the bodyguards.

"Non-participants are prohibited from entering the castle!"

"We are cheerleaders, just cheering for them." Xingzi negotiated with the bodyguard with a smile.

"No, rules are rules!"

"Don't be so rigid. The castle is so big, there will always be room for the three of us."

At this time, Qisala turned around and said, "The three of them came with me. Didn't Pegasus say that he could meet any of my requests? I now ask the three of them to come in with me. It's not too much, is it?"

"But?"

At this time, the bodyguard's phone rang.

"Yes, I understand."

"Okay, you three can go in."

"Great!"

Qisala and her group walked into the castle hall and found a middle-aged man with yellow hair, a turban in the style of the US flag, sunglasses, and a short beard standing there.

"Yugi, do you know who that person is?" asked Jonouchi.

"I think I've seen that guy on TV. His name is Keith Howard. He's called Thief Keith because he won prizes in various competitions in the United States," Yugi said.

"Oh, yes, I've heard of him too, but it seems that this person lost to Pegasus in a competition, and there has been no news of him since then." Peacock Dance followed.

"The American champion, that's amazing." Jonouchi exclaimed.

"You little brats over there, you're quite knowledgeable," said the thief Keith. "But since you're even here, it means you've got some skills. This way, the competition won't be so boring, hahaha!"

"This guy!" Jonouchi felt a little unhappy.

Just then, a gray-haired gentleman came out and bowed respectfully.

"Dear contestants, congratulations on passing the Duelist Kingdom preliminaries. Please follow me to the dining area."

The gentleman finished speaking and walked towards the dining area, followed by a group of people behind him.

When they arrived at the dining area, they saw a long table filled with food. Everyone sat down. Jonouchi and Honda almost drooled at the sight of the sumptuous food.

"Everyone, please rest up well in the castle tonight for tomorrow's final elimination match. Please enjoy the meal we've prepared for you today."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jonouchi was the first to pick up the food on the table.

The peacock dancer sitting opposite him couldn't stand it anymore.

"Jounouchi, the way you eat is so ugly!"

"What's the big deal? The most important thing now is to fill my stomach. I haven't had a proper meal since I came to the island."

Seeing what happened to Jonouchi, Peacock Dance held his forehead and sighed.

"He looked so serious and manly during the duel, but why does he act like a child at this moment?" Peacock Dance thought.

As everyone was enjoying their meal, the gentleman continued, "By the way, I have something else to announce to you all!"

After hearing this, the people below stopped eating and looked at the gentleman.

"Before participating in the elimination match tomorrow morning, please prepare the two cards given to you before the game." The gentleman said as he took out the two cards.

"It's this [Glory of the King's Right Hand] and [Glory of the King's Left Hand]. Without [Glory of the King's Right Hand], you can't get the prize, and without [Glory of the King's Left Hand], you can't get the right to duel with Mr. Pegasus."

"Oh no, I decided to participate in this competition on a whim and didn't receive these two cards!" Keith thought to himself.

"One more thing, please look at the soup in front of you."

Everyone turned to look at their soup, and suddenly a golden eyeball appeared in the soup of the five contestants, and the five people were startled.

"You guy, you actually gave us such disgusting things to eat!" said Jonouchi.

"But our soup doesn't have that stuff," Honda said, stirring the soup with a spoon. (PS: Please don't do this in real life.)

"Please open the Millennium Eye in front of you."

Kisara, Yugi, Mamoru, Jonouchi, and Keith fished out the Millennium Eye from the soup, opened it, and found a piece of paper inside with ABCDE written on it.

Yugi is A, Peacock Dance is B, Kisara is C, Keith is D, and Jonouchi is E.

Then the gentleman took out a match chart.

"The first match of the first stage of the elimination round is A vs B, which is Yugi Muto vs. Mai Konosuba."

"The second match is C vs D, that is, Kisara vs. Keith Howard"

"Katsuya Jonouchi gets a bye and goes directly to the second stage."

"After the first stage, the remaining three duelists will draw lots again for the second stage, where another duel will determine the two finalists."

"These are the rules for the elimination round. Please continue your meal. Afterwards, someone will lead you to your respective rooms. With that, I'll take my leave!"

The gentleman bowed and left the dining area.

"Oh, I was planning to continue challenging Qisala, but I didn't expect to duel with Yugi. However, Yugi, please give me some advice during the first game." Peacock Dance said.

"Well, I'm looking forward to that time."

"My opponent is actually Keith." Qisala said lightly.

"Hey, little girl, I'm going to show you hell. Don't be scared and cry when the time comes, hahahaha!"

"Really? You must let me see it, otherwise it won't be the other way around." There was a hint of indifference in Kisara's tone. She hadn't recovered from the fact that Kaiba was sealed, and this Keith actually provoked her. She could only vent her anger on Keith first.

The others couldn't help but shudder when they heard Qisara's words.

"This is the first time I've seen Kisara like this. It's so scary. Although the sound is very small, it feels very creepy." Jonouchi said.

"Yeah, I guess the Kaiba incident was too much of a blow to Kisara. Now Kisara should have entered berserk mode. I think Keith was in a terrible situation during the competition." Honda said secretly.

After everyone finished their meal and prepared to return to their rooms, Yugi gave his [Glory of the King's Right Hand] to Jonouchi.

"Jounouchi, you hope to win the prize money to heal your sister's eyes, so I'll give you this card."

"No, game. You gave me the metal stars, and I'm already very grateful to you. Now you give me this, how can I accept it?"

"Here, Jonouchi. You've been able to win all the way here because of your own strength. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten here even if the game gave you metal stars. We all want Shizuka to get better." Kyoko said.

"Thank you, everyone!"

"Everyone, have a good rest tonight and don't run around. I don't know if there are any strange things in this castle. I'm afraid there might be some danger." Qisala said.

"Yeah, Kisara is right, it's getting late, good night!" Yugi said.

"Good night!"

After everyone returned to the room, a figure suddenly appeared in the shadows at the corner of the corridor, and then disappeared.
