The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

Chapter 561 Semi-Final

Students were given the rest of the day to recover their contract beasts. The next round would take place the next day.

Rishi used this day to rest. He wanted his contract beast to be in the best condition. Only Vakar was allowed to train his cloud control ability.

It was because he was nearing mastery of this skill. For the remaining day, Vkr kept using Cloud Control for many hours.

He was tired and had mental fatigue, but he continued without caring about other things.

Soon, he was able to master that skill to the max. However, he was so tired that he fainted the next moment.

Rishi, who was meditating beside him, approached Vakr; he checked his situation before sighing and sending him back to 'Book of Contract.'

He also stopped everything and went to have dinner. After he was done, he went to bed.

Next morning, everyone was gathered in the Battle Arena again for Round 3.

Professor Amrita announced, "Welcome everyone to the semi-final round. Please give a round of applause for our top four."

One after another, Rishi, Divya, Risha, and Mayank. Entered the battle ring. The crowd cheered for them, screaming the name of the one they were supporting.

Most people supported Divya; surprisingly, after her second, most supporters were for Rishi. Mayank and Risha also had their friends supporting them.

"In this round, you four would be divided into a group of two participants each; from both groups, only one will qualify for the finals."

"The first group name will appear on the screen."

All the lights were suddenly switched off. A large screen lit up. In it, there were two blank spaces on both sides, while V was written in the center.

The right-side blank space started shining, and soon, one after another, characters started appearing to form names.

"Everyone's first battle would be Rishi vs. Mayank." The audience cheered; they wanted to see this battle.

"The second battle would be Risha vs. Divya."

Rishi looked at the short boy with curly hair. It was Mayank. A boy with black hair and green eyes.

Coincidentally, Mayank was also looking at him. He looked confident and made eye contact with Rishi.

The whole arena was able to see this little contest. Nothing could be felt on the outside, but they knew an invisible battle was taking place between them.

Divya and Risha smiled at each other. They were friends. When they looked at the atmosphere, they decided to leave the battle ring.

Risha has shone a little brightly since he entered the college. He had rarely participated in any activity.

However, wherever he went, he was able to have a highlight.

'Blue Skull' There was no one who had not heard of this name; similar to him, Vinay was also famous.

Many have noticed this and are confused. Some thought that he was scared, but most knew that it couldn't be.

There might be some special reason for his absence.

"You know, I have been tired of people talking about how great 'Twin Skulls' are. I have been waiting to get an opportunity to crush you both with my feet."

"You are nothing but attention seekers. What do you hide behind your mask? Are you that afraid?"

"It's still time to beg for forgiveness. I am forgiving. I will let it pass if you concede now. Else, don't blame me for being merciless." Mayank was unwilling to accept that anyone could steal his limelight.

He was confident that in the battle of Contract Beasts, he would easily be able to crush anyone.

Rishi looked at him with the same calmness in his eyes, as if he had not heard anything that Mayank said.

This was how he was now. These tricks were useless against him. His opponent wanted to make Rishi angry so that he would fight recklessly.

When Mayank saw that his trick was not working, he approached Rishi and stood before him.

"Where is your friend? I have challenged him, and I will defeat him. Is he too scared to?come?"Laughed Mayank.

"You both are just clowns in your masks, nothing more than that."

Even Amrita was irritated by Mayank; she wanted to stop it. Who knows what would happen if Rishi lost control?

She still vividly remembered what had happened on Rishi's first day at college. A senior had picked up a fight with him due to his girlfriend.

They wanted to humiliate him, but that day he mercilessly blasted them both. That video still sent chills through her body.

She had never seen a boy be this merciless. He had held the neck of the girl and rubbed her face on the wall.

However, when she looked at Rishi, she saw that he was not reacting at all; he was standing at his place with his hands folded and his eyes as calm as a monk.

It was as if his mental fortitude was way above others, as if he were a greater being than them.

Would an elephant care about dogs barking behind him? This was a similar situation.

"You... are you deaf? Can't you hear me?" screamed Mayank, frustrated by the expressionless behavior of his opponent.

He was about to hold the collar of Rishi when Professor Amrita interfered and said, "Stop Mayank. Return to your position."

Maynk clenched his hands and looked at Amrita before looking at Rishi. He turned and left.

If he continued mocking Rishi, then he would appear as an idiot to others. He took a deep breath and calmed himself.

He was going to defeat him. 'I will watch if you can be this calm after you lose to me.'

A chuckle escaped from his lips as he thought about it.

"Beast Tamers summon your first beast." Announced Professor Amrita.

Mayan and Rishi started channeling their mana into their tattos. Their tattos lit up, and 'Book of Contracts' appeared in their hans.

Rishi's book was covered in a purple glow, which was different from the crimson one from Mayank's 'Book of Contracts.'

Their books levitated in the air above their hands as they started summoning their contracted beasts.

Maynk was faster than Rishi; a page left his book of contracts and hit the ground before him.

Cracks appeared in the ground. From the summoning circle covered in red flames, a contract beast came out.

A fountain of lava was released from the circle, which merged together to form a strange creature.

It had a lower body, like a Djihn, and the upper body of a strange humanoid undead creature. A black robe covered its head and torso.

Its body was made up of lava. In place of the eye, two red flames could be seen burning inside its sockets.
