An intense war continued between defenders' beasts and the horde of mutants continuing to emerge.
It was chaos on a scale the academy experienced for the first time. Violence transforming the educational institution into a real battlefield where survival depended on execution under pressure that most had never faced outside simulations.
Screams of dying beasts filled the air. The wet sounds of tearing flesh and crunching bone, the roar of elemental techniques colliding and the trembling earth as massive creatures moved, fought and died.
Blood stained the sand purple from corrupt beasts… But also small red dots from the few defenders who'd already been injured, luckily not yet killed.
The arena that had been a competition ground was becoming a blood bath.
And ironically, the final exam's war battle had declined into what was basically already a real war.
It was a more brutal lesson than any instructor could deliberately design.
