Even if the competition made no sense, Layla needed to keep going. She needed to keep her eyes on her goal and participate in this competition.
The competition was fierce, with participants falling in the ranking by the second. In just an hour, only 30 remained.
Layla had come across a few noble kids who seemed to be struggling. The pressure this place was casting on these kids was immense, and Layla quickly climbed a tree to get herself out of the spell range.
As soon as she climbed high enough, the pressure she felt lightened.
Her new position also allowed Layla enough advantage to cast spells at her opponents and knock them back.
The poor kids had no chance against her when she got serious.
The numbers dropped even further, and only 20 kids soon remained.
As soon as the counter hit 20, the number became stable again, and there were no more drops.
