Combat tournament.
Sam walked to the contests area of the arena and looked at the audience. Unlike the other tournaments, the combat tournaments are all going to be held on the same day, one after the other. It is possible only in the Gambler academy though.
Because the number of people who participate in the combat tournament is the lowest in all of the academy realm. Even though Gambler academy has one of the highest number of students if not the highest.
Sam looked around at the contestants.
There are only thirty people in the second grade along with him. Five people will be selected out of it as candidates. Most of them would be at peak stage and rarely some late stage ones. In the Gambler academy, with so few candidates, it is more likely for the late stage ones to slip up if there are no strong peak stage candidates.
That, and the fact that people who do specialize in combat in the academy are way too good.
