Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

"Well, we'll see who's really stronger once they fight. It's a mistake to pay attention to only Jun Ho." Erina declared. Then, her gaze stayed on several individuals opposite them. "There's also Shisui of No.2 High school. A peak of Awakening Realm and illusionist. He had fused the genes of Spider Mirror."

The students behind her listened with gusto as their gaze met the gaze of No.1 and No.2 High school students. An intangible spark and tension appeared in the atmosphere at this moment. No one was willing to show sigh of weakness.

Belial nodded. "Fu, Syd, and Victor of No.1 High school. Although they weaker than Jun Ho. There strength still belongs to the top end of ranking."

Belial continues to say the notable figures of both schools for their students.

'Now, they should know who to watch out for, right?'

'That's Adam? The one that my teacher keep telling me? Able to come out on top and the most contribution to the beast tide?'

Jun Ho looked at Caleb for a moment before he quickly lost interest. 'I hope he can give a challenge or it would be a huge disappointment.'

At this very moment, Caleb could feel several gazes of students from No.1, No.4, No.5 and No.2 high school on his body.

'Hmmm... Have they investigated me? It seems a lot of them would target me specifically and even form alliance to deal with me. Well, that would be hella fun.' Caleb didn't looked back at the gazes and just stared at the arena that has several cabins lined up.

The cabins gave Caleb a feeling of science-fiction. A transparent glass, white metallic shade, long and thick wires of various colors, and holographic buttons.

'What is the function of these things? Could it be?'

He could guess that they were the means that they would use for Elite Trial.

"Attention! Let the students of respective schools step inside the arena! Anyone who's not inside after ten seconds would get disqualified automatically.

Hearing this, the students and teachers alike were startled. The teachers immediately reacted. Belial roared with all his might that his saliva spewed out: "Why are you still standing stupidly!? Get up on the stage for me!"

Wouldn't it be too shameful for them if they got disqualified so early without even fighting? What would the other school think of them?

Fuck it!

The students cursed in their heart. Aren't they too strict?

Fortunately, everyone has good physical fitness. They jumped in the arena one by one.

As the announcer saw this, he nodded his head with a deadpan expression:

"Next, I'll announce the rules and the format of the game. First of all, your consciousness would be sent to the virtual world named 'Spakatus Island' that has different terrains and environment. The environment inside is harsh and dangerous and 85% of students that participated in the elite trial in the past got eliminated by the environment itself.

Fatty and Mei took a deep breath as they heard this.

"Second, your goal is to kill demon beasts in different territories in the island. Demon beasts scattered around with various abilities. This will tests how well you can adapt to your ever-changing environment. As you know, the battlefield is ever-changing and you could lose life at any moment. One moment, you're in an absolute advantage, another moment, the table flip and you're about to die..."

The students of every school digested the rules and the format of the game intently with their ears perked up. After all, this was related to their future. It was a life-changing game that they need to take seriously. Once lost, they would lose the opportunity to soar to the sky permanently.

'Indeed, the battlefield is ever-changing since there's a lot of unknown factors. Although preparation could help go far and reduce the chance of mishaps. The ability to adapt to any circumstances, flexible thinking, and quick wits are rather instrumental to have the last laugh.'

Caleb couldn't more agree to the statement of the announcer. As someone who went from various world with different rules and power system, he had learned how to adapt. His personality, perception, and views had evolved throughout the process. Now, he doesn't if he became a better version but himself but he's sure in one thing... He was more likely to survive in harsh environment now than his past self!

"Third, for every demon beasts you kill. Y'all would get points. You will form a party of three members and the points would get divided equally. Those teams that survive in the end have the change to fight other teams that survive in the arena... Of course, this isn't certain yet. Maybe the organizer would change their decision and let the team members fight other members of other teams individually. We will see."

"In essence, you need to improve your teamwork to slay beast. Ideally, demon beasts stronger than you. Entry stage Sprout-level demon beasts gives measly ten points. Intermediate stage Sprout-level demon beasts gives 30 points. Then, advanced stage of Sprout-level gives 50 points while the peak stage fives 100 points!"

"Entry stage of Roar-level beasts which are equivalent of Extraordinary Realm, on the other hand, is equivalent to hundred points. See? As for demon beasts higher than Extraordinary Realm. There's nothing like that in the island or you'll just get eliminated immediately if there is..."

"What he hell? Why would they include Roar-level beasts? That is too strong for us Awakening Realm students! Isn't that just courting death?" Fatty, as usual, expressed his dissatisfaction.

However, no one objected to his complaints as they also found it unreasonable to fight monsters that is one realm higher than them!

Mei patted Fatty in consolation: "I'm sure those Roar-level are far and few and between the the possibility of encounter of them in the island is just 10% and below..."

"Fucking Elite Trial! Fucking Rules! No matter what, I'll come out on top!" Zhou snorted.

"Fourth..." The announcer took a deep breath. He just said a lot of thing to the students just now he was out of breath.

Shisui of the No.2 High school waited impatiently and claimed loudly. "There are too many scruples. In the end, our team would be the victor."
