The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth



Three days have passed since the Companion test finished, and its result was also announced. Now it was time for the Exam that tested the students' individual strengths. A group of professors and students have gathered in the Battle Arena.

Everyone was excited to witness the duals. This was an exam, due to which outsiders were not allowed to enter. Here, only people from the Academy were permitted to see, and for this Exam, they have decided to go with the traditional style this time.

"Each student had to compete and move on to the next round. The last participant would have to fight a two-minute fight, and the opinion of the judges would decide the winner. The judges this time are famous adventurers from our region," said the commentator. The three judges appeared at the entrance and took their seats.

The first was a middle-aged man with a ponytail; he also had many cuts on his face. His eyes were fierce, giving others the illusion that they were looking at a Beast with a human body. His physique was muscular, making him look even more intimidating.

Beside him was a girl with green eyes, wearing a hat and carrying a long staff. The robe she was wearing only made it easier for others to guess her profession. Next to her was another man, and this one looked handsome. He stood there with his brown hair combed neatly, looking at everyone with a smile.

Today we have a special guest joining me in the commentary box. Please give a round of applause for Ronny." A tall and handsome boy entered the stadium. He swaggered and went to the commentator box. The crowd cheered for him as if they knew him.

Rishi looked at the situation in confusion and looked at the students around him to find a clue. One of the students said, It's Big Brother Ronny; I didn't know he would come as a guest today."

"Who is he?" asked a clueless boy.

"You don't know Ronny?" asked others around him in surprise, as if it were a crime not to know this guy.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I was just curious about him; you can ignore it if you don't want to answer." said the boy; he felt like others were looking down on him.

"Ronny is our senior. He got admission to one of the top ten universities in the State. He was someone who represented our Academy in many competitions. It would not be wrong to say that he contributed a lot to the Academy," replied one boy.

It's only the tenth-ranked university; why are you making it sound like you got admitted to the top-most university?" said one arrogant boy. The others around him looked at him with angry eyes. If looks could kill, this guy would have been dead by now.

"Only tenth? Do you even know about the competition to enter those universities? The students who live in top-tier cities have access to resources way better than us. The resources we use for ourselves are what they might not even feed their pets."

"You will know about it once you try," said the girl, and the others nodded, agreeing with her.

After some further discussion, everyone became silent. They were all looking at the screen, which showed the names of the participants. The students that were well known for their strength, like Rishi, Vinay, Nina, and Kajal, didn't even need to go to the stage as their opponent surrendered fast.

Only weak students had to fight seriously to prove their worth. This boring phase went on for some time before it was time for round 2. This round was more interesting than the previous one, and not many students surrendered, but when Rishi defeated his opponent in a second, showing others his strength, they started to lose hope and started surrendering.

It was already afternoon, and the three rounds were over. There were still ten participants left, but the remaining ones were all interesting. The most interesting thing was leaving Lalit; every other first-year member of the All-Stars was present; this was both good and bad news.

Now they needed to fight among themselves. The other people other than the members of the All-Stars were Kajal, Rajan, Aditya, Chaya, and Bhanu. Among the remaining five, two were members of All-Stars in the past before they left Dare Dragons. The other members of the All-Stars were rubbing their fists, ready to pay these traitors back.

The first battle was Manu vs. Bhanu; the person who had been most affected when these two left the guild was Manu, as he and Bhanu had become good friends. He never knew at that time that he was raising a snake that would one day bite him back; this person had not even tried to talk to him once.

Their battle was interesting at the beginning; Bhanu used his Battle mage skills with his dual-wielding swords. This was just the start; once Manu got momentum, his spear attacks became more and more powerful. His attacks carried many feints, which made it hard for the opponent to predict where he would attack. After some more time, Bhanu was just getting beaten by Manu.

The ones watching realized that there was a personal feud between the two; they could not understand why Bhanu was not surrendering. As the battle continued, Bhanu became full of wounds and cuts, and the judges announced the result of the match.

After this battle, there was another interesting battle: Chaya vs. Nina. If Bhanu had hurt Manu, then Nina was the one who hurt both Rishi and Nina. Nina got close to her, as they were the only two girls in the group. This battle was even more interesting; at the start, Chaya was able to hide herself and sneak at Nina.

But soon Nina was able to defend herself. She wasted no time and unleashed her full power. Her sword left its sheath, and her hand tightly held onto the handle of her sword. Chaya got caught up in her AOE skill, giving Nina one second; this was all Nina needed to end her misery.

She even gave her a bonus—a nice little haircut. Even Rishi was surprised when he saw that this Nina was not to be trifled with. He reminded himself not to irritate her again; who knows what she might do?
