Chapter 149: The First Class Event

After Aakesh called out the participants, all the participants who would participate to win the class Beast Summoner stepped forward.

”For the event, all of you would enter the virtual portal,” Aakesh said and pointed at the fifteen virtual portals lying on the platform. All the participants nodded after hearing this.

”In the event, you would appear in a jungle full of beasts belonging to different races, species, and cultivation levels. Some may be weaker than you, and some may be way stronger than you.”

”You need to defeat as many beasts as possible using only your hands. The participant who kills the most number of beasts higher than their level would win the event and then the class Beast Summoner as the reward,” Aakesh announced.

After announcing, he pointed at the fifteen participants standing in front of the group of 63 participants and ordered them to enter the portal.

The participants nodded and entered their respective portals.

The next moment, the black screen separated into 15 sections and started showing the scene of the participants.

The participants had appeared in a jungle full of trees. There were so many trees that they wouldnʼt even know who was a meter away from them.

The event needed them to stay at 100% concentration all the time. If the participants missed even a second of the beasts hiding behind trees, they would lose their life and get disqualified from the event.

Since the event asked them to fight only using hands, they couldnʼt use weapons.

The next moment, a beast roar echoed on all the fifteen divisions of the screen at the same time. The participants got ready to fight right away.

Many participants destroyed trees around them to make enough space for them to fight, while many decided to use the tree to their advantage. It wasnʼt only the beast who could use the trees to create a surprise attack; participants also had the same opportunity to do this.

Right after the beast roared, an alert, ”Get ready to fight!” echoed inside their head, announcing the start of the battle for them.

The participants took their positions and got ready to face the beasts. The next moment, the land shook as the horde of beasts arrived.

The participants at first were shocked, seeing such a large number of beasts only at the start, but after they saw their levels, they heaved a sigh of relief, and many participants even rushed in thor crowd.

Since most of the beast in the first horde was either level 1 or level 2, some participants decided to kill them right away as later they could create problems for them when higher-level beasts arrived.

One such participant who rushed into the group of beasts was Clark, one of the guards of Pento. Since he was an intermediate Nascent Soul, killing the beasts wasnʼt an issue for him.

With every punch of his, beasts died in multiple numbers. He was only using 20% of his power at the moment since he needed not only stamina but also power when the higher-level beasts arrived in the battle group. To win the event, the participants required to kill beasts of the higher levels.

”You, come here,” He found a Level 3 beast in the midst of the horde. He grabbed the head of the beast and used it as a weapon to crash into other Level 1 and Level 2 beasts.

Using the head of the beasts relaxed him since its head was hard enough to get used as a hammer. He killed more than 480 Level 1 and Level 2 beasts using the head in around a minute. The beastʼs head finally gave up after that and got crushed into smithereens.

Five minutes had passed since the event began. Since all the participants were at least late Soul Formation, no one got disqualified during these five minutes.

Another bestial roar echoed in the area as if five minutes was a time limit. The next moment, the land started trembling with an intensity even more than the previous tremble.

The next moment, the horde ten times arrived on the scene, destroying everything in its path. The horde was so large that they cleared 20% of the jungle in their rumble.

The horde had upgraded from the previous crowd as the number of Level 3 and Level 4 beasts contributed more than 99% to the horde, while the other 1% consisted of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 5 beasts.

Time flew by, and another five minutes passed. After this, another horde of beasts arrived, adding to the previous horde for every participant. The majority of the beasts in this horde were Level 5 and Level 6, while there were ten or twenty Level 7 beasts.

Unlike the previous events, the beast participating in this event wasnʼt that much talented. They were similar to the regular beasts, so many Soul Formation cultivators were able to defeat Level 5 beasts.

Time flew by, and another five minutes passed. Out of the fifteen, only one participant remained in the event, and the other got disqualified as the third horde overpowered them.

It was time for the fourth horde of the beast to arrive on the scene. This horde would only contain beasts of Level 7 and Level 8, while one beast led the pack, and it was a Beast King.

The Beast King stayed at the back and ordered other beasts in the horde to attack Clark with everything theyʼve got.

After getting the order, the beastʼs eye turned red, and they went on the rampage. In only a few moments, what was once a jungle full of trees turned into ruins.

Clark wasnʼt able to handle the rampage of so many high-level beasts, so he lost his life a few moments later. The next moment, he appeared on the platform. A smile spread on his face, finding him to the last to exit the portal.

He was also smiling as the event went better than he hoped for. He killed quite a few beasts having higher cultivation than him.

The next moment, the virtual projection near the platform lightened up and showed the name and higher-level kills of the fifteen participants who had entered the portal as the first group.

The name on the top of the list was Clark, who had killed 372 Level 6, and 28 Level 7.
