"Let the Tournament Begin!!", known as "Start of the Tournament Finals" in the Japanese version, is the twentieth chapter of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. It was first printed in Japanese in V Jump magazine and in English in Shonen Jump magazine. Both of which were printed in volume 2 of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX graphic novels afterwards.
Summary
Chancellor Sheppard meets with Dr. Crowler and Professor Hibiki in his office. The two hand him the results of the preliminaries. Five of the eight finalists are first-year students, and two of them are from Slifer Red. Both American students also made the final eight, as well as a single third-year student. The match-ups have been randomly selected, and they will be Jaden Yuki vs. Seika Kohinata, Alexis Rhodes vs. David Rabb, Chazz Princeton vs. Syrus Truesdale and Bastion Misawa vs. Reggie MacKenzie. Jaden approaches David, telling him he made it the finals just as David told him after he declined Jaden's duel invitation earlier. David expects to duel Reggie in the finals, as they are in separate blocks. Alexis warns David not to underestimate her, while David is shocked that Syrus also made it to the finals.
Zane Truesdale meets with Seika, and is surprised to see her taking dueling seriously. She states she had a change of heart, and wishes to earn title of Miss Duel Academy back through dueling. A short time later, the first duel begins, with Jaden facing Seika. She thinks it's convenient for her to face Jaden in the first round, as it was his duel with Alexis that caused her enter this tournament in the first place to assuage her pride. Jaden goes first, and Summons "Elemental Hero Stratos" in Attack Position and Sets a card. Seika Summons "Black Mamba", whose effect activates, shifting "Stratos" to Defense Position. This allows "Black Mamba" to attack and destroy it. Seika Sets a card, and Jaden begins his turn. He Summons "Elemental Hero Voltic" and equips him with "Voltic Spear", increasing his attack by 1000 points. Jaden attacks, but Seika activates her face-down "Viper's Grudge", letting her Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Reptile-type monster from her Deck each time one of her Reptile-types is sent to the Graveyard. "Black Mamba" is destroyed, so she Summons a second copy from her Deck, whose effect switches "Voltic" to Defense Position.
Seika Tributes "Black Mamba" to Summon "Urubonus, the Avatar of Malice" in Attack Position. "Viper's Grudge" activates, letting her Special Summon another "Black Mamba" from her Deck, whose effect switches "Voltic" to Attack Position. Seika attacks, with "Urubonus'" effect decreasing "Voltic's" attack points by 300, which lets her destroy it. She attacks directly with "Black Mamba" before activating "Swamp of the Dragon Snake", which will Special Summon a Reptile-type monster from her Deck to Jaden's side of the field during each of her End Phases. She Summons "Poisonous Viper" to Jaden's field. Jaden draws, and "Poisonous Viper's" effect activates, dealing 500 damage to its controller during the Standby Phase. Jaden Summons "Thunder King Rai-Oh" in Attack Position and attacks "Black Mamba". "Rai-Oh's" effect prevents both players from taking cards from their Decks in any way besides drawing. Thus, "Viper's Grudge" cannot activate. Seika comments that it's a troublesome card, but it won't matter, as she has enough in her hand to defeat Jaden.
Featured Duel: Jaden Yuki vs. Seika Kohinata
Turn 1: Jaden
Jaden Normal Summons "Elemental Hero Stratos" (1800/300) in Attack Position and Sets a card.
Turn 2: Seika
Seika Normal Summons "Black Mamba" (1300/1000) in Attack Position, whose effect switches "Stratos" to Defense Position. "Black Mamba" attacks and destroys "Stratos". Seika Sets a card.
Turn 3: Jaden
Jaden Normal Summons "Elemental Hero Voltic" (1000/1600) in Attack Position and equips it with "Voltic Spear", increasing its ATK by 1000, to 2000. He attacks and destroys "Black Mamba" (Seika: 4000 → 3300), with Seika activating her face-down "Viper's Grudge", which lets her Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Reptile-Type monster from her Deck each time one of her Reptile-type monsters is sent from the field to the Graveyard. Thus, she Special Summons another "Black Mamba" (1300/1000) in Attack Position, whose effect switches "Voltic" to Defense Position.
Turn 4: Seika
Seika Tributes "Black Mamba" to Tribute Summon "Urubonus, the Avatar of Malice" (2000/800) in Attack Position, with "Viper's Grudge" activating, letting her Special Summon another "Black Mamba", which switches "Voltic" to Attack Position. Seika attacks "Voltic" with "Urubonus", whose effect activates, decreasing the ATK of "Voltic" by 300, to 1700. Thus, "Voltic" is destroyed (Jaden: 4000 → 3700). "Black Mamba" attacks Jaden directly (Jaden: 2700 → 2400). Seika activates "Swamp of the Dragon Snake", which will allow her to Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Reptile-Type monster to Jaden's side of the field during each of her End Phases. She Special Summons "Poisonous Viper" (100/200) to Jaden's side of the field.
Turn 5: Jaden
Jaden takes 500 damage during his Standby Phase via the effect of "Poisonous Viper" (Jaden: 2400 → 1900). He Normal Summons "Thunder King Rai-Oh" (1900/800), who attacks and destroys "Black Mamba", with its effect preventing "Viper's Grudge" from activating.[Notes 1]

Notes
- ↑ In the TCG/OCG, "Thunder King Rai-Oh" does not negate the Special Summon of monsters from the Deck, only the transfer of cards from the hand to the Deck by means other then drawing
