Rishi saw the scene and said, "Stop it, guys. We should not fight among ourselves."
Dev approached Vinay and put his hand on his shoulders, saying, "Everyone is just having fun; you don't need to get serious."
"Dev is right; let's sit and talk. There's no need to use your hands when it's easier to get things done by using your mouth," said Ajit, sitting on his chair.
Everyone took their seats and started discussing all the essential things. Rishi said, "Dev, we must go to an undead dungeon. I believe everyone wants to join and raid that dungeon together."
"You are right; we haven't had fun in a while," said Dev.
"What is the level of the dungeon? I am sick of defeating advanced-stage monsters. I will not join if I need to fight those weaklings," said Dilip, with a bored expression.
"It's an elite-level dungeon; everyone will have fun there. We all have the duel exam for two days, after which I will attempt the second trial to advance to the Elite Stage, and we can go to the dungeon then," said Rishi.
"Rishab is right; we already have three Elite Stage members, with Rishab advancing to the Elite Stage. We will have a better chance of clearing it," said Ajit.
"Did I forget about you, Aman? Have you advanced to the Elite Stage?" asked Ajit.
"What do you think?" Aman released a little presence; everyone could feel the mana around them pressuring them. This was the sign of an Elite-Stage Beast Tamer.
"Congratulations!" everyone congratulated him.
Ajit started making some notes and said, "I will start making preparations; we need to get permission from the city and the academy to raid that dungeon. I think we will also need special potions and items to clear that dungeon."
Dev smiled and said, "We have sufficient time, Ajit; don't be so stressed."
After discussing more things and training with the guild members for a while, Rishi returned to his apartment. After reaching his house, he trained a little more before eating his meal and going to bed.
The next day, he woke early and trained his swordsmanship before preparing for the exam. For breakfast, he had some toast with beast milk.
When he reached the venue, he saw that the battle arena was very different from before. It was the same stadium as the one where the Beast Battle was conducted, but the current battle arena was different.
It was the size of a football field, and the duel was conducted very differently than the other exams. In it, all students entered the battle arena at once and fought until only 50 were left.
Rishi saw every student enter the battle arena one by one; he analyzed them a little before joining them. The battle arena was filled with participants in less than a minute; everyone was careful and kept an eye on the students near them, as they would be the ones to attack them first.
When Rishi looked around, he saw many familiar faces; he was looking for Aditya. An idea suddenly came to Rishi's mind: there were chances that he would not get another chance to fight with Aditya.
Wouldn't it be fun if he eliminated Aditya in this round? It would hurt Aditya more than physically hurting them. His final score would be lower if he gets eliminated in the second round, due to which he would get a low level, and Rishi would not have to see his shitty face daily.
A smirk appeared on Rishi's face; he laughed when he imagined how fun it would be. The students around him moved back a little when they saw him laughing like a madman; everyone knew who Rishi was.
More people knew him by the name 'Reaper' than his actual name; this was a perfect place for someone like Rishab, who enjoyed killing people; that's what the students thought and moved a little further from him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are all gathered here to see the duel round of the exam. It is one of the most famous events in which more than five hundred plus students participate and fight till only fifty remain," said the commentator.
"Today, our guest is Sameer Tyagi, the 'Head Boy' of our academy; he was also the winner of this exam at his time. First of all, I would like to thank him for accepting our invitation. Sameer, would you like to say something to motivate the juniors?" he added. The crowd cheered and welcomed Sameer; this slight reaction told Rishi about Sameer's popularity.
"The one who should be thankful is me; you gave me the honor to join you and witness this event from the commentator's box. As for motivating the juniors, I don't think they need any motivation from me; this year's batch is filled with talented students, so other students are also motivated to perform better," said Sameer.
"This round has always been the most important one; everyone has their eyes on this round as this is the exam where hidden talents are found. The senior students come here to recruit talented juniors, while professors also come to see how their students are performing. This event is like a festival where we all gather to see the rise of new talents," he added.
The crowd cheered when they heard Sameer.
"Mr. Sameer has very beautifully explained the significance of today's event. Would you like to tell our audience about the students you believe will perform very well today?" asked the commentator.
"If I pointed out the names of some students, then it would go against what we want to achieve in this event. We are here to discover, not to highlight. While some students have already proven themselves in the past, most of the students didn't get the chance. Still, today everyone has an equal opportunity to rise among the masses and show everyone what they are capable of," said Kabir.
"Everyone, are you excited for the main event of Mazar Beast Tamer Academy's half-yearly exam, 'Battle Royale'?" The crowd cheered when they heard the commentator.
On the hologram above the number '10,' it was written, "The battle will start when the number becomes zero; every count with me," The crowd followed the commentator, and everyone counted together.
"10"
"9"
.
.
"3"
"2"
"1'
"0"
"The battle begins," with the crowd's cheers, the battle began.
