Ranking System

"Ladies and gentlemen! The second game of the day is about to begin!"

"This game will be much more entertaining than the last!"

Much more entertaining? It may sound exciting to the crowd, but it would be much more challenging for us, the competitors.

"Competitors! Please come back for a second round!"

The head of the organization said with a smile, without needing to say any more words. Everyone who had competed in the first game had returned.

"Off you go!"

Without any time to prepare, we were teleported into a different place. Unlike the wintery plain, we were now in a desert.

"Now for the second game! In this game! It's about hunting!"

"Monsters around the area will appear, and you'll have to do your best to defeat them!"

"The more you kill, the more points you get! Every monster will be one point each, no matter what!"

It was easier to kill the small fries. Looking around us, I have already located some monsters that would be easy for us to kill.

"I'll lead like last time. There is a place where we could fight."

[Third Person POV]

With Charles leading the way, the monsters he found were naturally weak. Monsters of the lowest in the food chain, such as desert rabbits and camels, were found. And with the addition of Nene's nose, she could sense their smell.

This game was different from the last, unlike searching for random objects in the last round. One would need to kill as efficiently as possible.

The place they're in is much more dangerous than the last one. Not only were there stronger monsters, but the weather here was much worse.

"This time, my team won't be so unlucky. They're skillfully defeating monsters at a rapid rate."

Amanda forgetting the previous event was now trying to boast her representative skill. Blaine and his squad held up well against giant sand elephants and desert moles.

The sand elephants specialize in defense, using the sand as magic. They could coat it with mana and harden their armor. To kill them, one would need a strong penetration attack or a strong attack.

As for the desert moles, one would need the right timing. Without Charles's curse, they are holding up pretty well against their enemies.

"They're doing well, but my team is gaining points faster."

"That's because they're lucky! What kind of dog shit luck is this! They practically haven't encountered any monsters that could harm anyone."

Amanda couldn't believe the "luck" that Linsey's team was receiving. Even some of the other high-ranking party members couldn't believe their luck.

"Linsey, does your team have some skill that allows them to observe their surroundings? That's pretty useful. If that's the case, I could see why they won the first round."

Angus said without caring what the others had to say. He found it stupid to assume that everything that they did was luck.

Everyone listened to what Angus had to say. Most of them found what Angus had to say reasonable. The people who believed it was luck were embarrassed.

"Who knows?"

Even Linsey herself doesn't know the full extent of Charles's skill. What she said annoyed everyone curious about her team's ability.

"If you don't want to say shorty, then don't."

"The only thing short is your team's ability to score points."

Linsey was having the time of her life. Her arch nemesis Amanda was taking all the blows from the words that she had said. Amanda hasn't been able to fight back because of her team's results.

Two teams were already eliminated. They were lucky that the head organizer had awareness and monstrous reaction speed, allowing him to teleport anyone the moment that they were about to die.

The two teams had been taken out by the sandstorm coupled with the monsters inside it. Getting sand in your eyes inside a fight isn't a pretty sight to be seen.

With ten minutes left, everyone would need to try their hardest. No one here wanted to get last. Some of the teams took a riskier approach and charged right in.

Charles and his team were still taking this game easy. Nene's instinct on the sandstorm and Charles's eyes were on spot. They had good synergy, making them safe while hunting all the easy targets.

"The rules should be changed! It's boring if they only hunted low-level monsters!"

Amanda couldn't stand it if Linsey's team won. She decided to protest the rules. Most people also agreed with what Amanda had said.

"The rules have already been decided. Regrettably, they are only hunting monsters of that caliber, but the rules are there for a reason."

"Changing it now would be disrespectful to them."

Angus got everyone who wanted the one-point kill rule to be changed to shut up. Linsey smirked, seeing that Amanda got shut down. Today was a good day for her. She will sleep happily remembering this sight.

Ten minutes had then passed by the end of the game. Only four teams were eliminated. The two other teams were eliminated near the end of the game. So, their results shouldn't be lacking compared to the rest.

"Everyone who participated in the first two games has done well!"

"There is one more game before we decide the results of all teams!"

"The next and final game will be decided in an hour! So, please rest as much as possible for this final game!"

"I hope you'll enjoy your time!"

Every team went to their leader to check for their results. Charles and his team went to Linsey to see if they did well compared to the other teams.

"You three did well. You'll undoubtedly win this whole thing if you don't mess up for the final game."

For the other teams, their leader knew that their teams had a low chance of winning. The people who hoped they could still win commanded their teams to target Charles's team.

All we know is that the last game would be different from the rest.
