Everyone was hyped for the next battle, as this would be the one that decided the winner of this exam. Rishi needed to defend two opponents to defend his rank one ce.


    Rishi looked at his opponent, who was looking at him with hateful eyes. He had brown hair and green eyes. He was the same height as Rishi, but his body was more muscr than his.


    The referee asked both participants, "Are you ready?"


    The challenger took out a giant shield and a spear before striking the spear on his shield to make a metallic sound and saying, "I will crush you and take revenge on Aditya. You bastard backstabber, you would have attacked from the front if you were a man."


    Rishi took out his talwar (sword) and stood in the battle stance, with his left hand holding the sheath and his right hand holding the sword''s handle. He tightened his grip before looking at Refree and nodding.


    The ref checked again to ensure both participants were ready before raising his hand and striking down while announcing "Start."


    Rishi used ''phantom steps'' and approached the opponent before using a ''quick draw.'' The opponent brought his shield up in front, trying to block the attack, but nothing happened.


    He was surprised when a ''quick sh''nded on his shoulder. He cried and brought his shield to the side while trying to look for Rishi, but he could not see anyone.


    Standing in front of him, Rishi stabbed him with a dagger; his opponent cried and jumped back. He was looking for Rishi when he suddenly started feeling that he was not able to control his hands or legs.


    He was paralyzed like Aditya, but Rishi used ''Sword Dash'' andnded abo with ''Quick Draw'' on his opponent. Four deep cuts appeared on the body of the opponent.


    Rishi had such high uracy that despite attacking an opponent covered in armor, he could find gaps and attack them.


    Rishi approached him and stabbed him with his dagger four times. The attacksnded on the joints of the legs, and the opponent fell on his knees as if begging Rishi for help.


    Rishi brought his mouth close to the opponent''s ears and said, "I didn''t eliminate him from behind me because I was afraid of him; it was because I didn''t want to waste my efforts fighting a bug like him."


    "You, Bas.." before he couldplete his sentence, Rishi stabbed the dagger in his hand, which forced the opponent to stop in between.


    "Don''t cut me. Do you know what Sameer did to my guild? Tell him to wait just a little more, and I will destroy his Dare Dragons guild as well as Exodia," said Rishi before slitting his throat.


    The audience was not able to see the cruel scene. The fear of Rishi only grew after this battle; No one wanted to mess with a crackhead guy like him.


    pαпdα Й?νê|,сòМ Kajal saw it and didn''t know what to say. She had stopped Rishi many times from openly challenging the Tiwari n, but if that idiot wanted to die fast, he could do as he wished.


    "That looked personal," said thementator.


    "Everyone will soon hear the news tomorrow. Didn''t you find it weird why Lalit was so angry with Chaya and went so far as to eliminate her when they were in the same guild?"mented Shreya, and from the smile on her face, thementator guessed she knew something he didn''t.


    The second challenger was Rajan, who entered the battle wearing a blue VR headset and headphones, but he changed the headset and wore specs. He also changed the headphone to ear pods.


    The teacher asked both participants, "Are you ready?"


    Rishi stood up in his previous stance while Rajan took out some strange ck gloves and put them on. He touched his hands with his fists before standing in his fighting stance. His left hand was on disy and was open, while his right hand was grouped into a fist. Both his legs were wide open.


    "Nice to meet you again, Rishab. Are you ready for the battle?"


    "It''s good to see you again; are you ready to lose again?" said Rishi with a smile.


    "Time will tell who loses and who wins," said Rajan. A strange presence started emanating from him.


    The referee announced the start of the battle before it began. Rajan approached Rishi with his movement technique ''Swift Steps'' and attacked him with a jab.


    Rishi countered with his sword before attacking him with a ''Quick Draw.'' Rajan side-stepped and punched Rishi''s sword to the side. Rishi attacked him with another series of sword attacks, but Rajan somehow defended himself by blocking and dodging.


    He was dancing around the fighting ring, which made it very hard for Rishi to connect a perfect attack on him; he was also outstanding in closebat, even though Rishi was careful around him, as a single punch would lead to his loss.


    "You are quite good with that sword," said Rajan.


    "You aren''t that bad with fists." Rishimented before elerating towards Rajan; when Rajan saw that he used the skill ''Wicked Blow, his punch shone in ck color as he attacked the ce where he predicted Rishi would be.


    Rishi smiled and used ''Phantom Steps'' to move to the side. The attack of Rajan missed, and before he could get into a defensive position, Rishi used ''Sword Dash'' with ''Quick Draw'' tond abo on him.


    He targeted the leg muscles and arms. Rajan used a strange spell to cover the four spots with a defensiveyer where Rishi''s attack was about tond and sessfully defended himself, but Rishi jumped at him and used ''Quick Draw'' to target Rajan''s neck.


    Rajan used the ''block'' skill and brought both his hands shining in yellow in front of his face, but a cunning smile appeared on Rishi''s face as he used ''Sword Dash'' again and disappeared from view, then appeared behind Rajan andnded three sword shes on his body.


    The blood flowed from the three spots, and Rajan gritted his teeth. He was surprised, as were others, as no one knew it was possible to use the ''Sword Dash'' skill this way.


    "Is this even possible? I have never seen someone use ''Quick Draw'' before using ''Sword Dash'' andnding a three-hitbo," said thementator.


    "It''s possible," said Sakshi before stopping for a second and continuing, "but the control and hand speed needed for it is unnatural. It is a toughbo, and tond three hits, you need to master the ''Quick Draw'' technique."
