Students in Trouble

"Someone has rigged the tournament." 

"What!?" Dennis said in shock.

Lith and Ralph weren't shocked like Dennis but a little surprised when they heard it. As for the cow, it didn't know what the tournament was in the first place, let alone what rigging it meant.

Emilia nodded her head and said, "that's right. The tournament has been rigged by someone. We do not know who it is and are trying to find the person." 

"Oh, I see." Dennis replied.

Emilia then continued, "and the beasts you came across right now, they aren't supposed to be here. This world's energy and resources do not allow any beast to be above Tier 5 but you came across four of such beasts. Thankfully, they were still in the midst of developing and absorbing nutrition from the soil and didn't attack you or else things would've been bad." 

The four nodded their heads hearing her explanation.

The three wanted to know more about this and started having a chat with Emilia.
