Chapter 378: The "Oracle"

The atmosphere in the arena was tense with anticipation as Kain walked toward the stage. This was one of the most anticipated matches of the day.

On one side was Kain, who many in the audience still wanted to be knocked down a peg or two.

On the other side was Mira who was the only one outside of the top 5 who has managed to defeat someone who was part of the top 5 since they all entered the college. Would she be able to stage another upset again?

"Come one, come all! Place your bets on the match of the day—Kain vs. Mira!"

The voice rang out loud and clear, amplified by an obvious lack of shame. Kain froze mid-step, his expression shifting to one of incredulity as he turned toward the source of the commotion.

There they were—his so-called "friends"—operating a full-blown gambling ring in the spectator stands.
