Nikhil defeats his opponent without wasting any time. Nikhil doesn't say anything, he just looks at Goldie after which Goldie tells all the students and Nikhil, "You are selected!" Hearing this, Nikhil goes to Goldie's right side. All the students who get selected will go and stand on Goldie's right side.
There was a twist here as well. The twist was that if the group from which the student belongs wins this mini combat match, then the first chance to select that student will be given to the teacher from whose group the student belonged. That's why Goldie selected Nikhil and took him to his side. If Goldie had not selected Nikhil, then Kiara would have got the chance to select Nikhil or not.
Sarthak had observed every move of Nikhil very well, "Nikhil is not as perfect as those C rank hunters but if we have to know his rank then it would be better to give him E rank which would be at his peak to go to D rank." He now starts observing the next fight, in this fight a student from Kiara's side wins but Kiara does not select him after which the chance to select him goes to Goldie, Goldie selects him.
Like this more than forty fights happen, Kiara had less students who could use Shakti so Kiara sends the selected students ahead to fight with Goldie's students who were not selected yet.
Now Sarthak comes forward for the next fight, "I am not going to fight with any hunter or beast this time, I will fight with a human here who has power and he knows how to use his power well, but I will not lose here because I have learned a lot from the dungeon incident, I will use all those things here today." Sarthak said to himself, he stretches his hands and legs, moving them here and there in the air. Kiara looks at her selected student with cold eyes, after which that student goes forward to fight with Sarthak without saying anything, seeing Sarthak stretching, Kiara says to herself, "Let's finish this fight as soon as possible and move on to the next fight! By the way, this is the same boy who selected Goldie's group first, let's see how long he can stand against my student who has won the most matches till now." Kiara brings a slanting smile on her face. Nikhil looks at Sarthak with cold eyes and then turns his gaze towards Kiara's student who was coming towards Sarthak. Sarthak and that boy are now face to face, the boy says to himself looking at Sarthak, "I don't like fighting, I don't know what to do with this power that makes me fight even when I don't want to!" He had short hair and his height was 5 feet 5 inches, his hair color was black. The fight starts, as soon as Sarthak moves forward for the first attack, everyone sees that Sarthak stops in the middle, no one understands anything but Sarthak got a notification from the system which only he was able to see. Ding..!! [ Challenge received! Defeat the opponent standing in front of you] [Reward: Instant Level Up] "Instant Level Up?" Sarthak said to himself, but the boy standing in front of Sarthak did not want to give time to Sarthak, he activates his power after which green coloured aura comes out from both his hands, he moves both his hands forward and opens them due to which his mana energy comes out from his hands and they turn into green coloured crab hands, he jerks his hand forward due to which his crab hand made of mana energy stretches and his hand moves forward while that boy is standing at his place and was controlling his crab hand made of mana by just moving his hand and with his mind.
Sarthak then feels that something is moving towards him, he reacts immediately and dodges those hands one by one, he bends, jumps. He then comes in a safe range from where he can escape from his opponent's attack without any difficulty.
"It was so close, if I would have been a second late I would have been caught in his hands! For now I should focus on this fight instead of the system, if I lose then I don't know what the system will do with this challenge, I have to get selected somehow."
Sarthak said to himself, the boy's crab hands which were made of mana were now connected to the end like a mana wire, which allowed the boy to use his mana hands for a longer distance. Both his crab hands now also had round shield protection which surrounded his mana hands.
Sarthak was ready, the boy attacks, his attacks had become faster and more accurate than before, while continuously dodging his attacks Sarthak says to himself, "He is not giving me a single chance to get close to him, if I keep on dodging like this then there is a chance that I will get selected but I will not get the reward of the new challenge, if I want to strengthen myself quickly then I will have to complete the challenge given by all the systems." He says to himself, he pays attention to the attacks of the boy and realizes that the boy was not using his full strength to fight him, Sarthak thinks, "I don't know what kind of powers this boy has, but looking at him it seems that this power helps him to take out his mana from the body and transform it into any object, okay I got it." He now moves forward trusting himself and his improved senses instead of avoiding us. The boy attacks, crab hands come from the right side to catch Sarthak, Sarthak firmly places both his feet on the floor, Nikhil sees this, Goldie and Kiara also see this, Kiara says to herself on seeing this, "This fight ends here now!"
As soon as the boy opens his hand to catch Sarthak, the shield protection is removed, Sarthak sends more than half of his body weight on his right hand, he opens his palm and very cleanly pushes it slightly behind him, due to which the attack goes behind Sarthak instead of catching him and Sarthak moves ahead.
Everyone is surprised to see this, even the boy himself who was controlling the hands made of mana. Sarthak's head is down and his hair is covering his eyes, but as soon as Sarthak raises his eyes while running forward, a smile appears on his face and his eyes start glowing in light red color.
No one can see the red glow in the eyes of Sarthak who suddenly appeared, except Goldie, his facial expressions are normal and his attention goes more on Sarthak. Here Sarthak was moving towards that boy but suddenly that boy brings both his crab hands with shield protection and he hits Sarthak with it, this attack was strong, Sarthak's body falls backwards and with this the fight also ends.
This fight was won by Kiara's student so Kiara had the option to take him in her group or not. Kiara turns her gaze towards Goldie without looking at Sarthak, "This boy did well but only talented students can come in my group." Kiara said to herself in her mind.
Goldie understands Kiara's gesture on which Goldie looks at Sarthak and tells him, "You have been selected!" Sarthak stands up and while tightening his hand says to himself, "Shit..! That boy fought really well, I should check my system screen, what happened to that challenge in which I had to defeat my opponent!"
He thinks about the system screen while walking after which the system screen opens in front of him, he starts getting notifications from the system.
[Congratulations! You have passed the student selection, rewards are being given]
