Chapter 213 - Random Selection

(From MC's Perspective)

The following day,

I woke up earlier today, I didn't want late for the event. After cultivating for a while, I went to take a good bath. Some times alter, I changed my clothes into usual one, after leaving the bath.

Then I viewed the time, it's morning 7 AM. I have still some time, before going there, I like to have good breakfast. This hotel is cheap, I don't want to have my breakfast here.

So, I decided to check out. I packed my stuff and placed them inside the storage ring. After sorting out, I took one last glance around the room. Seeing that there is no stuff left behind. I left the room and headed towards the registration desk.

After completing the task at hands, I left the hotel.

Suddenly,

My wrist watch buzzes with notification.

I stopped for a moment to check it.

"It's call from uncle" I said to myself.

Then I attended the call, "Zack, Are you ready? Are you close to the star tower?" serious of questions rang in my ears.

Hearing that, I answered, "Wait, Uncle, I already walked out the hotel. I plan to grab some food before heading towards the location."

The other end of the call, Mr. James nodded listening to his words. Then again, he seems to thought of something and said, "Zack, after the event, You don't have to leave early. Elder Thornton will be there to pick you up."

"What! Elder Thornton will come here. Why? What happened "I said with a solemn tone. It's not usual for busy elder to accompany me. Multiple doubts flashes in my eyes.

The other hand, Mr. James didn't want to elaborate anything further. He didn't want to spoil his state of mind by saying unnecessary things. So, he lied, "Usually, Student is accompanied by Staff. But, our situation is little tricky. There is not much staff in Hansen Campus and rest of them were busy."

Then he continued, "Right now, Elder Thornton got some free times in his hands. So, You don't have to worry about anything."

Listening to Uncle's explanation, I didn't doubt it. It's also good anyway. Elder Thornton is strong warrior, is there is any mishap along the way he can deal with it. Then I replied to him by saying, "It works great for me, Then I'll be waiting for him after the challenge." With that we ended the call.

I didn't dwell on this matter, with in few breaths, I found good restaurant. After having good breakfast, I rushed towards the Star Tower using air cab service.

The Crimson Hall team left simultaneously after having breakfast together.

They took large size air cab to Star Tower. The Same Scenario is happening everywhere around the city. Large number participants headed towards the same location.

The team of six conversing with each other inside the cab.

"How long, Do you think the duration of the vent going to be held?" Sallie couldn't help but ask, she held her chin up with hands. But in her head she is thinking about the challenge.

Hearing her friend's question, Ella rolled her eyes at her. "Are you worried?" she inquired in surprise tone.

Shaking her head, Sallie answered, "I'm thinking about the challenges. It will be good, if it won't take much time."

Ella nodded hearing that. Everyone wants to end the challenge as soon as possible.

But at this time, Austin changed the topic by saying, "Have you heard someone from Red Stone City also registered for the challenge?"

Immediately, everyone's attention drawn to this topic,

The other hand Robb's face turned solemn.

At this time, Bradley asked, "Oh! Red Stone City, Where is it?"

Hearing that Austin replied, "That City is close to our city compare to other participant's cities"

Darius snorted, by saying, "To think people from unknown city is dare to participate in this event." He immediately, thought certain people don't know the height of the mountain.

Hearing Darius's dissatisfied tone, Austin edit want to continue the topic, they were still few minutes away from Star Tower. So, he don't want to ruin the mood.

Some time later,

The Crimson Hall team arrives at the Star Tower.

(From MC's Perspective)

"Finally" I sighed in relief as I reached the location. Thankfully, there is no mishap on the way. I reached here within time.

Just as I walked in front of the gate. There is actually official standing there and guiding everyone inside. I'm not only here, there is also stream of other participants.

Seeing that I'm hurried my pace towards him.

The other hand, official saw incoming Zack. He gestures him to follow others.

Seeing the I followed the rest of the people. Soon, We came in front of the meeting hall, inside there were hundred seats for participants. After entering inside, everyone one begin to sat in the seat on by one.

Some time later, the meeting hall is filled with people. At this time, the Crimson Hall team also entered inside and took their seat. Soon, All the participants took their seat.

At this time, a star tower official came in front of them to instruct them.

Seeing that every participants straightened their back and perked up their ears.

"First of all, Congratulations for participating in Star Tower Challenge." The official said with a smile. Then he saw everyone is attentive, he continued, " The Star Tower Challenge is going to be held in batches. Each batch has ten warrior. They were selected in a random manner. When the first batch completes the trial followed by second one, Simultaneously, rest of the batches will participate in the challenge."

He then gave them some time to digest the information.

Hearing that all of the participants took sharp breath.

"What? For a whole month." Sallie was taken back. Earlier, They were discussing about the event. But they didn't imagine, it's going to be held for month.

Soon, everyone begins to understand about the batch system. It will take some time for everyone to compete. Besides, this just hundred participants, rest of them probably in different meeting hall.

The other hand, Zack.

Where am I going to stay for a month? I already checked out from the cheap hotel. Even if I go back, I don't there will be accommodation. It's seems new headache on the way.

For a while, little murmuring is going on.

At this time,

The official coughed to seek attention.

Then he commented, "I believe everyone can understand the detail. If you have any doubts you can ask me."

Hearing that participants begin to ask questions one by one. Most of them were about the rewards. But the official didn't disclose the detail.

Then some time later,

It was the time of random selection. The random selection for first hundred participants is being held. It's done by artificial system, and it's going to happen before our eyes. So, there is nothing going on behind the scenes.

In the meeting hall, Everyone's name is displayed on the visual screen. Then the official begin the random selection.

The participants don't mind much about the selection. Since, it's going to be individual challenge, it doesn't matter in which batch they are going to be selected.

Soon, one by one. The Participants divided into ten batches. Zack was on first batch itself.

The Crimson Hall team members were among second, third and eighth batches. Among them Ella and Sallie belong to third batch, Darius belong to second batch, while Robb, Austin and Bradley belong to eighth batch.

Seeing his name on eighth batch, Robb felt quite dissatisfied. While Ella and Sallie brimming with joy. They were quite worried about duration of the challenge event. But, now they can roam around the city after finishing the challenge.

But rest of the Crimson Hall members didn't bother about it much.

On the other hand, I felt happy. I can go home after completing the challenge.

Soon the atmosphere, quite down. Everyone understood about their batch.

The official the other hand looked at everyone and said, " Okay everyone listen, the challenge is going to start in one hour. Other than first and second batch, everyone can stay here. The leader ranking board will be broadcasted to everyone."

Hearing that twenty warriors belong to two batches stood from their seat and followed the official. While rest of them stayed back there.

Two batches arrived at the foot of Star Tower a few minutes later. The Star Tower looked dazzling by illuminating green light. It's so huge that people from below can't see level above thirty."

The Crowd exclaimed seeing the huge tower, everyone's eyes shown with bright light.

I couldn't help but feel amazed. Even standing at here, I can feel such a relaxation. It's very auspicious tower, No wonder. Like rest of them, I too observed the height of the tower. After seeing it for a while. I looked around to see any other features. Like the meeting hall, there is also huge display installed here.. It's the leader board ranking, Currently there is no name and ranking.
