A robotic dummy could be seen at the center of the battle arena. It was painted black and looked like a robot soldier. It only had its toss attached to a pole that was dug deep into the ground. It was started, and its eyes shone in a red glow. It had moved before stopping, and everyone looking at it could feel a chill.
"Audience, are you excited to see the strength of our participants?" Asked the commentator. The crowd cheered, showing their excitement.
The first participant stepped forward and went and stood above the battle arena. There was also a retake this time. He took out his 'Book of Contracts' and summoned his contract beast. It was a hyena-like creature with sharp blades like big claws on the front legs and smaller back legs.
"The first participant has summoned Blade Hyena; will it be able to get a decent score?" The commentator said Others are also looking at the battle arena.
The Beast Tamer commanded, "Attack with 'Cut.' "
The Magic Beast's back two legs pressed hard as he jumped; its right claw grew in the air and became like a big blade. It appeared in front of the dummy and hit it in the chest with all its strength. Its claws moved and were about to hit the chest of the dummy when it moved, showing its superior flexibility and being easily dodged.

The commentator said, "Oops, I forgot to tell while the lower part of the dummy is fixed. Its upper part can move to dodge the attack, so keep that in mind when attacking it."
The participant looked at the dummy and commanded his contract beast, "Use 'Shapen' before attacking with the 'Quick Attack' and 'Fury Slash' combo."
The magic beast cried, and his body shone in a white glow. It jumped again at its opponent, this time at a speed unimaginable before. Its body covered in blue light was about to reach the dummy when the claws on both of its forelegs grew in size. A black hue surrounded them.
This time, the sword beast attacked again. It again targeted the chest. The dummy moved again, but this time the beast didn't miss. A 'clang' sound was heard. The participant, who had a grin on his face looking at the dummy, was happy and waiting for what the dummy would say.
The dummy said "weak" before a number appeared on the machine a few meters away from him, covered in a barier.
The vertical bar on it was raised to 100. When the other participants saw it, they couldn't believe their eyes. They had seen the attack, and they knew it was not that weak.
The beast tamer clenched his teeth. He hated this dummy who was insulting him again and again. He commanded, 'Use 'stored power' and 'overgrow' before using 'Destruction Sword.'
"At last, finish it with a 'quick attack' and 'fury cut.'
The Magic Beast cried as its eyes shone in a yellow glow. Its body suddenly started to grow, especially its forelegs. The claws in them also grew and became three times their size; they were shining in a white glow due to the 'sharpen' effect used before.
The beast jumped into the air. Its blades, like claws, were suddenly surrounded by black smoke. In the air, they separated from both its forepaws and formed a sword; his sword was a black-colored sword with black smoke radiating from it. A white glow still covered it. The magic beast caught the sword's hilt by its mouth before its faltering body, covered in blue light, accelerated at the opponent.
The dummy still tried to dodge, but the Magic Beast was not faltering for it. It slashed its sword, surrounded by black smoke, and a small explosion took place. It stopped behind the dummy with their backs facing each other.
The sword in the Magic Beast's moth disappeared, turning into smoke. The magic beast could be Sean Panting. Its body
It shook and started to turn back to its original size. Its master saw it and summoned it back.
The dummy looked at the dent on its chest before looking at the Beast Tamer and saying "Average.", The participant was further enraged that this dummy was too much. On screen, 321 appeared; it was the score of the first participant.
The others also sighed and started planning what to do. Other participants came one after another to try their luck. Most of them failed, only being able to reach below-average strength. The dummy counted the attack on vital points and calculated the score keeping that in mind, but it was very hard to hit, especially vital parts like the head and heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe round continued with everyone trying to get a better score. Gyan Shinde, the boy with the Golden Sword Beast, was able to get a 400 score, but that too was marked as average by the dummy.
Many others successfully landed their attacks and were able to put some dents in him with their full strength. The audience enjoyed it when Dummy made fun of the participants. After some more challenges, it was now time for Yashika to
attack it.
She summoned her contract beast and asked it to transform. This round was not very advantageous to her, as the main strength of her contract beast was how it could help its master in battle. She had a lot of experience and came up with a plan. She commanded, "Use 'mark strike" with "quick slash."
The silver rapier shone with brilliance and attacked the dummy. Its attack was very fast and landed on the shoulder of the dummy. She commanded it to swing the dummy again with the same moves, which surprised others.
A blue arrow appeared above the dummy, and Yahshika commanded, "Now use 'Wind Enchantment', 'Precision Stab," and 'Final Strike."
The silver-colored rapier first shone blue, and a pair of wings appeared around it. Then it shone in a red glow and moved toward the dummy. A silver glow appeared on its tips as it moved toward the dummy. The dummy moved to the right after faking to move to the left side.
The silver rapier continued, and a shining red string could be seen that went from the tip of the rapier to the head of the dummy. The dummy tried to dodge, but the Silver Rapier was very past; it struck at the head and landed a clean hit before it was shot back by the recoil.
A very small dot appeared on the head of the dummy, who laughed and said "Above average.", The number 578 appeared on the screen, which was a very good score. The audience cheered for her. They were amazed by her combo. She was at a disadvantage in this round, but this was an extraordinary performance.
