On the academy's social media, a video of the All-STARS guild destroying Mad Monkeys went viral. This fight sparked a lot of discussion in the comments section.
The All-Stars guild became well-known in the academy, and some people even began to support them; Ajit took advantage of the hype and used the guild's account to post numerous details about the guild members on social media.
The night was also challenging to survive due to multiple attacks by wild beasts; One member guarded while the other slept, the All-Stars guild members stood guard one by one; they decided to leave early morning to reach the area with high-level wild beasts.
After traveling for five hours, they finally found a good hunting spot with many advanced-stage level 5 magic beasts. Rishi and his teammates decided to take a break and eat something before going hunting.
Dev was a good cook; he roasted the meat of the magic beasts and served it with the spices he had brought.
They begin hunting the magic beasts after eating their meal and resting for a sufficient amount of time. This time, they all were cautious, and one person was always on guard while the others hunted. Rishi also instructed Vakar to continue exploring the area around them and inform him if any other guilds approached them.
Rishi and his team hunted for four hours and failed to find any high-level magic beasts after four hours; They decided to take a break and eat lunch before continuing their exploration.
While the All-STARS guild was having fun, other guilds were fighting, and the Caster commented on the fights: "Mineva guild is up against Enigma; who will win?"
"The Enigma guild has begun their attack, but Mineva's tanks are doing a good job of stopping them, and Mineva's swordsmen is also attacking Enigma's damage dealers."
"The Enigma must act quickly, or the mages of Mineva will finish their chanting; the Enigma is attempting to stop them, but Minerva's tanks are simply too difficult to deal with." An enormous thunderclap was heard as the two guilds were fighting, after which a lightning spell struck the Enigma guild members, dealing significant damage and stunning them, followed by multiple fireballs. All Enigma members were defeated and teleported out.
"As I mentioned earlier, this is Mineva's famous combo 'Thunder Strike' plus 'Mystical Fire' combo. If you want to defeat Mineva, you need to stop their mage from casting their spells because after they cast their spell, it doesn't matter how many teammates you have; they will all be deleted instantly."
"Mineva has participated with a different team composition; They have two tanks, one swordsman, and two mages. Their swordsman and one mage are second-year students, while the other mage Kajal and two tanks are first-year students.
"In previous years, I have never seen a team composition so different, but this year's competition is very different. Many first-year guilds employ a variety of strategies. Kajal Agastya is also a brilliant mage; she assembled a formidable team in just two months, which deserves to be applauded. Mineva fought and destroyed two guilds today."
One guild was seen approaching Exodia on the screen; Both guilds appeared unaware of their adversaries. "Triade Guild and Exodia Guild are very close to each other; will we see another big fight back to back?" said the Caster.
The Exodia guild members were hunting magic beasts when one of the guild members' contract beasts barked, alerting its master to enemies nearby. That member alerted other guild members to the presence of enemies nearby.
Exodia guild members asked their one teammate, who possessed a flying contract beast, to locate the other guild's location; the contract beast returned and informed them of the other guild's location.
Exodia decided to ambush them and end the battle as soon as possible. Exodia's mage calculated how long other guilds would take to approach them and began casting a large wind spell called "Tornado."
The Triads guild members approached Exodia without knowing about the ambush, and the mage of Exodia cast his spell just as they were ten meters away.
When their tank saw- the attack, he summoned his magic beast to defend and used the guard spell to block the spell, but the spell appeared out of nowhere, leaving him unable to defend himself, and the "storm" spell landed on the tank and knights of the Triads guild, throwing them into the air.
The Archer of Triads was also within the spell's range, but he was pushed back by his Knight teammate. The other members of Exodia attacked the Triads guild members who were affected by the spell, using their damage-dealing abilities to take care of the two Triads guild members.
The other triad members wanted to help, but their remaining two members asked them to leave while they held Exodia back.
Surviving three days was critical, and the triads didn't want to be eliminated from the competition. The three Triad members glared in rage at the Exodia guild before fleeing; they wanted to do as much damage to Exodia as possible, but they decided to exact their revenge on the third round.
Triads were the seventh-ranked guild in the first round, They were also unlucky, like the All-Stars, but they did not use strategies like Rishi's guild, so they received a low ranking. Triads were a guild founded at the end of the previous year by three second-year students. They were unlucky that the other guilds overshadowed them.
"Guys, Even after the ambush, Exodia appears to be able to take out only two members of the Triads guild. The Tank and the Knight of Triads performed a selfless act! It was because of them that other guild members were able to flee."
"The Triads are also a very underrated guild, and I believe they would have done better if Exodia hadn't ambushed them. Let's see how many points they can get now that their three members are still in the game." The camera then moved to Rishi's guild.
There was another guild nearby, only 100 meters away, but both guilds were resting, unaware of the other guild's presence; Rishi asked Vakar to explore the area around them out of habit, Vakar flew by and noticed other guilds nearby after a while.
Vakar returned to Rishi and informed him of the presence of another guild, which Rishi then informed Dev of.
"Let's go attack them," Dev said.
"Isn't it unethical to ambush them?" Manu questioned.
"This is a competition we must win against all our opponents. It's our job; there's nothing wrong with it; what will you tell Ajit when he asks why we didn't come first and lost that spot because of a few points? Every point is crucial for our win," Dev responded.
"Dev is correct, Manu; it is their misfortune that they met us. We were also ambushed by another team, and all the other teams faced the same problem. They will be able to escape if they are good; you don't have to think about them," Dilip said.
