Academy’s Newbie Survival Event

Five hours passed by in the blink of an eye and Big D returned, snapping Almond out of his ability production session.

"It's time. Let's go."

Almond opened his eyes, but he was no longer in the room. Instead, he found himself in the night sky.

"What the hell is that?" Almond's eyes were filled with amazement as he saw a huge theatre structure with a population of hundreds of thousands sitting and facing a giant rectangular screen in front of them 100 meters away. 

"They are the audience who wants to entertain themselves, and many of them are also parents, friends, and relatives to the thousands of participants."

"Thousands?" Almond was taken aback. "This seems to be a rather big event. What do I have to do?"

Suddenly, fireworks shot into the sky and painted it beautifully.
