<div class="floatright">(http://www.splendidclaw.com/seto/kaiba25/setoposter1161.JPG)</div>The leading backer of the Duelist Academy was to make an appearance and make a private business deal. Apparently the Rhodes had fallen into a measure of debt due to several issues that occurred within the Academy. Primarily college funding and student loans. Kids and their hijinks. However the case many of the duelists were in their late senior years having made the transcendence into adulthood. Essentially a college curriculum and one that had a telling price tag upon it. Rarely was Kaiba called down like this but he was issued a traditional duelists challenge to have the slate cleaned off. They were desperate enough to have this wiped clean. To say nothing concerning his pride as a duelist, Kaiba had accepted the challenge. Of course Kaiba didn't have any intentions of dueling if nothing was wagered. Nothing ventured and nothing gained. As such people gathered in droves to greet him, to catch a glimpse of the famous Seto Kaiba. In his traditional white jacket and well cut clothing, the man walked with full confidence. Whilst the public appearance was for those students, everything concerning the duel itself and the deal made was to be done in private. He had secured the dueling arena for this express purpose and it was sealed behind him. His opponent was waiting for him.
