Inside a huge locker room, squad Rizing begins their preparation as the tournament closes in. "I hope everyone is ready." Caster says to us. We nod. Not only Rizing, but, the other teams are here too. They are getting ready to fight in this tournament too.

A guy walks upto to us. "Oh boy if it isn't Rizing." The guy says. "Well, who is the team leader who will be leading you guys at the battleground?" The guy asks. "That would be me." I say looking at the guy. The guy puts out his hand with smile. "My name is Fred Bastian and I am going to make this very clear..." The expression on the Fred's smiling face changes to an evil smile. "Your going to lose at your level." He says with his evil smile intact. I sigh. Everyone sighs along with me. "Whatever." I say. "Eh?" Fred looks confused. "Your going to ignore my warning...So your going to regret it." Fred says and leaves. Caster smiles.

"Now everyone let's begin with the rule's of this tournament." An announcer appears on the T.V. "The rules are quite simple, you will be fighting here." The announcer shows us a huge circle arena with the sides open. "And anyone who gets knocked of this arena, shall be eliminated from the qualifiers." The announcer says. "It will obviously be a battle royale just like every year." All of squad Rizing smile. "Now you must asking why the qualifiers? It's because new squads always want to join the academic tournament but we can't just put them with the best out there. So we measure everyone's mana power and according to that we leave 1 spot open for the squads to join through the qualifiers meaning that you get enough time to train until the qualifiers." The announcer says. "So I hope you guys are ready to go and give us all an entertaining fight!" The announcer says. Well...I don't know about entertaining but we are definitely about to give everyone a shock of a fight.

After the announcement, we all begin to make our way towards the arena. We reach to the middle of the arena. There are about a 1000 more students here other then us. This is going to be a crazy royale. "HEY~! DO YOUR BEST!" I look towards the crowd watching us and Cyan there is cheering me up. "Would you please keep your volume down, mistress?" A young butler says to Cyan. "Oh sorry!" Cyan says with a nervous smile. "You have changed a lot mistress...Don't you want a lollipop?" The butler asks. "Nah, I am good, if I start licking the lollipop then I won't be able to concentrate on this fight." Cyan says. "I see..." The butler says.

"I hope everyone is ready for the qualifiers!" The announcer says. "Here we go 3, 2 and 1...GO!!!!" The announcer announces as the crowd gives a huge cheer for the tournament to begin. It's a cluster here, everyone is battling random people. Some are just hitting their own teammates while we of the Rizing are just standing and watching this happen. "So this is why you said don't take initiative when it comes to royale..." Ajay says to me. "Yep, you got it." I say.

"DO YOU THINK I DON'T NOTICE YOU RIZING-GUH!"

*Smash*

Before Fred could reach us Grace smacks her leg right into Fred's chest knocking him out of the ring. I sigh. "Hey Grace, you do realise that people could see your panties from the kick right?" I ask. "Who cares? We just have to win. After all, in a war, you wouldn't look at a grown woman's tits or panties would you?" Well she is right on that part.

We didn't do anything until the last moment of the tournament where the final 4 teams were duking out with each other and their mana is low and our is yet brimming to the fullest. "Wow...We didn't even fight and we won..." Casey says with her eyes all bored. "I know right? My plan worked." I say. "How the hell did you come up with this plan anyways?" Damien asks me. "Well, playing too many battle royale games makes you know a lot of things for example, camping." I say. "Did he just mean that we were camping all this time?!" Everyone looks confused.

I stand in front of the guy whose half beaten and all his teammate are knocked out. I smile. "Checkmate!" I say. "Tsch..." The guy falls on the ground. "Hey ref! His knocked out!" I say. "Ye-yeah, so that means...SQUAD RIZING HAS WON...With all...Their 20 people still intact with them..." The announcer says with a surprised expression. Caster smiles. "Well that was expected from them, considering they are lead by a very intelligent person." Caster says with a smile.

Our celebrations begin as we make it through the qualifiers and through to the top 16 in the next round. "WE WON! WE WON!" Everyone begin to chant at our dorm. We might have won the qualifier...But...We still have a long way to go. The next is the round 16...If we get that persons team to begin our competition with...We are going to have a lot of trouble dealing with them...I just hope that it will be an easy battle and not him...
