    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ready, you two?" Tennol asked. Keith and Scarlet were inside the arena.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ready!" The two shouted. With that, the golem was summoned! No hesitation, the golem dashed at the two. Keith quickly got in between the two and raised his shield, blocking the golem''s blow. As he did,


    <span style="font-weight:400">How is this made out of stone? The attack power on the golem was not as strong as the one he faced in the practical. But it still packed a wallop! Is this because Scarlet and I are fighting it? The strength must have been adjusted for the two.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith quickly dodged the golem''s blow. He continued to guard as he distanced himself from Scarlet. She was doing her job, chanting. And when he saw the magic circle shining,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmpf!" Keith punched the golem with his shield and jumped away. And that''s when a wall of mes smashed into the golem. The monster was blown to bits.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good job, you two. You may go back." Tennol pped his hands. Keith and Scarlet nodded as they returned to the bleachers.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"A little more warning on the fire. I thought I was going to die." Keith could feel the fire right up his neck.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I knew you could dodge it." Scarlet smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith blinked his eyes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Next pair up!" Tennol continued on with his ss.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"So those two still haven''t agreed yet?" When Keith returned, he noticed Herrick and Alfia were still arguing!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"This is going to go horribly."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t think so." Scarlet interjected, "Even if they can''t cooperate with one another, their abilities are still at the top." Alfia and Herrick were among the strongest in strength and magic.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No, they''re going to screw this up," Keith muttered.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Sometimes, strength doesn''t help you win."


    <span style="font-weight:400">It didn''t take long before it was Alfia and Herrick''s turn. When the two entered, Tennol gave them a strange look. When the pairs entered, they would either cooperate or grumble. But these two were about to fight one another!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Are the two of you ready?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We''re doing this!" "No, this!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." How long are you two going to bicker? Tennol shook his head as he summoned the golem.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You need to tank it,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m going to do whatever I want!" Herrick raised his sword.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We need to deal with this together!" Alfia''s expression darkened.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then match my pace!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s not how it works!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">These idiots. Keith shook his head. Did they not see what was happening in the front? The golem came rushing at them. It was not giving them time to talk.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tch!" Alfia quickly stepped back while Herrick took the hit! He blocked it with his sword. The golem continued to swing its arms around. Herrick dodged before he bared his feet down and mmed his sword right into the center of the golem. However,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What the?!" Herrick''s eyes widened! His sword mmed into the golem. The problem with the sword was lodged into the stone. And the golem took the chance to smack Herrick away! The man was sent flying into the wall.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You need to watch his moves!" Alfia roared.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m doing that!" Herrick got out of the rubble and charged at the golem. When he did that,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Get out of the way!" Herrick turned his head to see a fireball. And that smacked dead on at Herrick! The beastman red at her,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Are you trying to burn me?!" "You got in my way!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Princess! Look forward!" Faelyn called out. Melor did the same, "Keep your cool!" While they argued again, the golem attacked!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gah!" Herrick was sent flying again; this time, he flew at Alfia. The two smash into the wall again.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You damn fool!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m the fool? You need to watch where you''re going!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Watch out!" The golem was before them again, ready to m its fist down. Before it had the chance,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"That''s enough!" Tennol pped his hand. When that happened, the golem paused. Tennol looked at the two, "The two of you failed."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Go back to the stands." Tennol shook his head. He couldn''t look at the two of them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Alfia got up from the ground and red at Herrick. But thetter did the same.


    <span style="font-weight:400">This was your fault!


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, time for your punishment." Tennol grinned.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Punishment? When was there a punishment?!" This was not part of the script.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Of course! There should be punishment after the abysmal performance from the ones who failed." Tennol grinned.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Can you not grin like that? The way he looked made it seem like he would do something evil. And that was precisely what he was going to do.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I got the go-ahead from the other professors. The students who failed the assignment will be wearing this." Tennol took something out.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Bracelets?" In Tennol''s hand was a pair of bracelets.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s really simple. Keith,e up here." Tennol grinned.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Can I not?" "No,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hah," Fine. I deserve it. Keith got up and wore one bracelet. When he did, a purple string formed, connecting with the bracelet on Tennol''s wrist. It disappeared


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Basically, if I move like this," When Tennol moved his hand, Keith pped himself in the face!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Instructor!" Keith''s eyes twitched.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And you can move the other person up and down." Tennol started to move around, and that caused Keith to move!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Basically, the person copies the other''s moves."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You guys will have it on for a few days."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What?!" The failed students groaned, "What about sleep?!" Were they going to sleep with it on?!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, you don''t have to worry about it. Your managers will take it off during baths and sleep." They thought it through.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Now, failed students. Take one."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I can already tell this will be a hectic day."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Indeed," Keith chuckled.
