They find the top bunk of the room already occupied by Chumley Huffington , who explains he was held back last year . He explains how the dorm system works : The Obelisk Blue dorm is reserved for " elite " students who do very well on their entrance exams and have inside connections , while the Ra Yellow dorm is the middle - ground , housing students with successful exams . Finally , the Slifer Red dorm is where new students are placed that the Academy feels have little potential . Afterward , Jaden and Syrus walk around the school a bit , and find the Duel arena where students can practice their dueling skills . Two Obelisk students tell them to get lost because the arena was to be only used for the Obelisks , but then one recognizes Jaden as the student who beat Dr . Crowler .
