Chapter 549 Start of 'Trainer Battle'

The day that each student has been waiting for has finally arrived. They were nervous as well as excited. n(/o-/v./E.-l-(B(.I()n

Instead of taking exams as bad things and hating them, the students liked them as they helped them measure their progress.

The first-year exam was the lightest. Its main purpose was to let students know where they stood among their peers.

No one failed in this exam, as the criteria were very easy. Even if one failed, they could try again and pass later.

The only thing that students didn't like was to read books about theories.

Similar to other colleges, it started with a written test. It was not that hard, and the exam was MCQ-type.

After the physical test, the students were compared to their past results and graded.

This was also easy after the skill test. In this exam, students have to display the new skill they have learned and show their mastery of it.

Surprisingly, no fighting exam tested the combat strength of the students.

This was done so that they wouldn't get stressed. The first year was to get used to college life and relax.

It was designed this way so that students who have sacrificed a lot in their school time to enter college could relax a bit.

The main exam was called 'Trainer Battle' in which students had to face each other by relying on their contracted beasts.

This was done so that students would focus on improving their contract beasts and not ignore their growth.

While it may not look like it from the outside, the core principle on which the government focused was to have students focus on their strengths and not get lost in individual improvement.

The magic beast's strength increased with each stage. The higher the level, the closer their strength became to the tamer.

After reaching Elite Stage itself, many Beast Tamers noticed that they were not that strong than their contracted beasts. This became even more clear when reaching the epic stage.

In the epic stage, magic beasts became very close to the strength of their tamer. With time, their strength only increased.

It started, and students were called in alphabetical order. Rishi had to wait a long time for his turn.

He noticed the looks of the students that had entered before him.

Some were happy when they exited, while others had a sour expression. There was no need to ask, and only one look was enough to guess how their exam might have been.

At first, he was not very interested, as he felt that there would be very little chance that he might need to go all out.

It was not that he was looking down on them; Rishi was, after all, in the Epic Stage, and not many of them had the same level as him.

He felt like he was bullying them, and because of this, he participated regularly in the first-year competitions.

It was then that he saw a girl walking past him. She was tall with long hair. Each step was filled with confidence and belief.

She had silky brown hair and sharp silver eyes. A strange, warm feeling ran through his body when he looked at her.

He felt as if electricity was coursing through his veins. Strangely, this was very strange.

She stopped and then shifted her sword-like eyes toward him. Rishi felt a strange pressure pushing on his shoulders.

'What is going on?' He controlled himself.

This was a feeling he had never felt. The feeling from her was as if she were related to him, and the suppression was also related.

However, his willpower started revealing itself. He recovered, and his enchanting eyes met her for the first time.

The surprised expression on the girl's face turned to a shocked one.

The shock was not from the fact that he had the same bloodline as her; it came from the fact that he had still not awakened his bloodline.

She would have never wasted her precious time looking at such trash if not for the fact he easily recovered from her pressure.

This was something she had never seen or heard of. Other than that, his identity was also the reason that shocked her.

'Blue Skull? So he really belongs to the Rawat family.' She wanted to ask some questions but was forced to enter the Training hall.

She could not delay it any longer or less; she would get her score deducted.
