Betting

After learning about the match, Ryan hurried to the venue. 

Under the tall statues of the founders, there were six floors for duels. 

First floor was usually used for Level 1-3 Awakeners. 

Second floor for Level 4. 

Third for Level 5. 

Sixth for Level 8. 

That is, even staff could challenge one another to a duel. There was adequate seating on each floor for every ring. 

Ryan, tagged by his three Level 3 followers, was about to press second floor button on the elevator, but paused abruptly.

He glanced around at the crowd on the ground floor and thought of something. 

The ground floor was contracted to Trade Union, and it resembled something that of a casino. 

Cheering lights. Food. Equipment. Everything was sold here. 

But the biggest business was, of course, betting. 

Cadets could bet with their merit points. If they won, they'd be rich overnight.
