"In the Tournament it features several the main arena relating to its Gauntlet, Trial and battle configurations, various features. The large Tournament logo entry doors, neon signage and balcony configuration all remained in place."

Shang gives a General Description Of Tournament.

"The Tournament arena façade and entry doors; The Presenter at the top presents from the balcony. The arena consisted of a rectangular base with a plywood floor, surrounded by a small metal wall with railings; access was provided by a pair of sliding doors forming part of a large Tournament logo the backwall was furnished with neon signage and salvaged scrap metal sculptures and old fashioned hip hop sculptures even including two large metal cones made to resemble metallic trees on the balcony. In contrast the lighting for Tournament was drastically altered, adopting a rapidly alternating sequence of yellow, green, blue, purple and pink ambient lights, rather than the constant red, blue, purple and grey lighting used in the former. A appearance was that for most rounds, the competitors were required to competed from inside The Effect Motion only, located on either side of the balcony and now fitted with the roof".

In the arena Shang shows more of the Gauntlet, Trial and all Arena stage, configurations the area .

"In the arena's Gauntlet and Trial configurations, the area has front entry doors features a large mesh pen, as a start zone for competitors in both stages.

It has many most of which were also used in the Gauntlet with multiple variations between Rounds and Semi-Finals".

Shang shows more to the Four Competitors The Gauntlet.

"First stage of The Tournament in one of its Gauntlet featured a litany of obstacles and hazards between each of the three available routes. These included the ramrig, static and moving ramps, one or more Pits, walls of artificial barrels, bricks or breezeblocks, and The Sentinel. The Swinging Wrecking Ball were also used in Pinball which is also used for blocking from getting to the finishing line. Next I'll show you the Trials ".

Shang shows next, the Four Competitors The Trial as they looked.

"Tug of War, a Trial event based around the Pit. The usage in Trial events varied depending on the nature of the events themselves. For example, the Pit was shown to be active in the Snooker Trial in Round Two, while the Tug of War was based around competitors attempting to avoid being dragged into an open Several Pits and The Swinging Wrecking Ball were also used in Pinball and other Trial stages".

Shang shows third and finally, the Four Competitors The Arena as they looked.

"The Arena configuration, featured the side bars lining the arena walls. Bendy and ropey

The major hazard was an area marked with black and yellow stripes, black and blue or black and red which ran around the circumference of the arena".

Shang shows the Four Competitors lastly the obstacles.

First, The Pit of Oblivion.

"The third and the most addition was the Pit of Oblivion. The Pit was a one-metre cubed hole filled with old tyres and pyrotechnic effects, which would be used to eliminate competitors immediately if they ran or were pushed in by another opponent. The Pit was large enough to fit most competitor robots and even The Guards in, the latter especially during the Gauntlet and Trial stages. When a Competitor fell into the Pit. It would be retained for all subsequent Tournament shows, and became one of the arena's most hazardous".

Secondly, The Swinging Wrecking Ball, which he spoke earlier about the Tournament Stages.

"The Swinging Wrecking Ball is a large fake ball and hung at the very end of the Arena, again primarily serving as an atmospheric object rather than a genuine hazard".

Thirdly, The fake spiked pyramids.

"The fake spiked pyramids now lined the back corners evenly distributed around the arena".

Fourth, Shang shows The floor spikes are also fake due to lethal reasons.

"The floor spikes are also fake due to lethal reasons not to have a Competitor hurt like with other obstacles in Arena, with a better function form. Around the arena in both its Gauntlet and battle configurations, and upgraded to fire faster than before. The spikes proved reasonably effective in lifting and jostling competitors off the floor when they went over them, as well as damaging they would get knocked or tripped over".

Fifth, Shang present a row in the top-right corner, which showed no lethal cutting weapons or blades in the Gauntlet.

"Fifth A row in the top-right corner, which actually formed part of the ramrig with no lethal cutting weapons or blades in the Gauntlet".

"Arena Perimeter. The Presenter presents from the balcony. The Presenter would present and interview Competitors from the balcony, transferring from The Effect Motion onto the balcony for interviews. Also introduce the Trial stages from inside the arena".

Shang speaks about The Referee.

"The Referee a potential player who can contact to find out more about Competitors actions whether they are being fouling or behaving rough aggressive. The Referee has to break up the fight like we in football or boxing that's we sort of person to work to control the situation".

"And last of all it's big as to a Football Pitch!"

The young four Competitors looked at Shang blankly thinking what kind of act he was putting on.

Last of all Shang said "That will be it for today and I hope to see you all again next week in the Tournament".

The young four Competitors make their way to the exit. Rishi, Herbert and Raju go together and Raid went off with his cronies talking to them about the Tournament, Herbert speaks "We're only one week away from the Tournament and this could also mean get into the time of training", Rishi speaks next about winning the Tournament like he never won anything before in his life just so he can prove to everyone he is the best "About winning the Tournament like I never won anything before in my life just so I can prove to everyone I'm the best at Sports" Raju speaks thirdly about winning the Tournament comically "This one I'm going to put on a good show for a performance in the Tournament.

Happy Diwali!" they lit fireworks there were Bhanghra displays, Punjabi Singers, hot warming meals.

Rishi, Herbert and Pooja saw A Bow Man Crossbow And Arrow who looked a lot like the Hindu God Of Good Lord Vishnu but it just a man portraying The Great Hindu God that all Hindustani civilians worshipped of all the bad things that have happened to them in real life. The Bow Man held it and aimed the arrow lighting it flare of flame pointing it at A Giant Huge Hideous Statue of the Hindu Of Evil was Ravana with the darkest features that had clouded a march A Reign Of Terror over millions of innocent people, in mythology, in the crowd they watched and shouted "FIRE!

The Bow Man fired the flaming arrow at The Statue it went up in flames and the crowd cheered wildly at the burning statue "GOOD TRIUMPHING OVER EVIL, LIGHT VANQUISHING DARKNESS!!! HAPPY DIWALI!!!"

Then later came firework display!

Fireworks went off booming in the night sky clouds turned colourful. Making a red orange glow.

The cheers grew louder and louder every second.

Rishi and the others went home happily with the last joy of the day. When Rishi and Herbert were together after he dropped Pooja home making his early promises for her. Herbert chatted "Those Diwali Fireworks were magnificent, weren't they" Rishi replied "Indeed they were. The performance was amazing". Herbert imagined Rishi being a Saviour "Could you just imagine if you were a Saviour to the world Rishi". "Not to say that I wanted to" Rishi assumed not that he would predicted to be one with Kabam's powers as a Saviour to protect the people from criminals, gangs robbers and troublemakers. All he could say "If I wanted to then I would take it up I'm living in this world because we people are meant to be born and that we just live our life".

To Herbert's concern he asked him "Then why are you born why do you think we're living in this world are?" Rishi becomes startled and said "No one had never asked me that question before? I had always asked that question myself when I was a child why I was born in this world, I always kept thinking that? Particularly when I was growing up?"

The two went home separately saying good night for the day.
