The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

After Nina, it was now time for Vinay to defend his rank. He stood up from his throne and started approaching the fighting ring; he entered the fighting ring and started waiting patiently for his opponents to come.

Vinay looked at his opponent, who was also analyzing him; he was taller and more muscular than Vinay. He was carrying a Roman sword with him.

The referee asked both, "Are you ready?"

The Challenger stood in his fighting stance, his left leg in front and right on the back, his sword in the front pointing at Vinay. He stared at Vinay with his cold eyes as if analyzing his opponent.

Vinay took out a weird book that looked mysterious and ancient. It was shining in a purple glow, and at the center of it was a skull, above which the words 'Book of Death' were written.

After both participants were ready, the battle started. The swordsman knew Vinay was a mage, so he approached Vinay using a movement skill. In between, he also used the 'sharpen' skill to increase the attack of his attacks.

Vinay cast a 'Bone Spear' at the opponent, which was easily chopped in half. When Vinay saw that the opponent was about to get close, he cast 'Hands of the Dead.' Two hands made up of bones came out of the ground and held the Challenger.

The Challenger used his sword skill, 'Fury Cut,' to land multiple blows on the hands, which weakened them. Vinay didn't waste a second and cast 'Bone Spear' one after another.

Instead of hitting the opponent, the three bone spears landed on the ground near it, surrounding the opponent.

Some people in the crowd even made fun of Vinay's aim, but Vinay's eyes shone in a cold glint behind his skull mask, and he said, "Explode," and the three spears exploded.

The Challenger was caught between the explosion of the tree bone spears and the pieces of bones that also entered his body.

He was in a dreadful situation when a blue barrier appeared around him and surrounded him. He sighed in relief and looked at his opponent from the barrier.

The mask hid the face of the opponent, but from his shining eyes, he could guess that he was smirking.

The second Challenger was different from the previous one; he wore a robe instead of armor. He had long brown hair and black eyes. He had a grin from the start of the match; he had complete confidence that he could win.

Vina stared at him from behind the mask as if looking at the air. The Challenger got a little flared up but decided to control himself. He summoned a magic staff that had a big orb above it.

The referee announced the start of the battle again. Vinay used 'Hands of Death' to capture the opponent; two bony hands came out of the ground below the mage and held him.

There was a mocking grin on the mage's face as he used the 'Burn' spell and started destroying those hands. A spear made out of bone came at him when he was just about to succeed.

The mage had a mocking grin on his face when he saw the attack, and he used the barrier spell to defend himself easily. Vinay exploded the bone spear, and cracks appeared on the barrier. The mage flared up.

He first cast one more barrier spell before casting the Mystical Fire spell at Vinay. Multiple balls made of fire started coming toward Vinay.

When he saw the massive spell he used, 'Bone Shield,' the bones came out of the ground and formed a barrier in front of Vinay, but he didn't stop them; he cast 'Bone Prison' on himself.

Four pillars made of bones came out of the four sides of Vinay before they joined together and formed a prison made of bones around Vinay.

The multiple balls made of fire collided with the barrier made out of bones one after another. The barrier started to weaken as more projectiles hit it; at last, it was destroyed, and the small explosions could be heard one after another.

The mage smiled when he saw that he believed he was about to win, but just as he thought that the dust had cleared, he saw Vinay surrounded by a box made of bones.

It was burned and filled with cracks but was still intact in the shape of the box. Vinay cast 'Hands of Dead' towards the opponent; the hands made of bones appeared again and held the legs of the opponent.

The mage was just about to destroy them when he heard Vinay say, 'Switch places.' A purple glow appeared on the spells cast by Vinay. Both spells disappeared after a second, and the mage was confused when he started feeling goosebumps.

The audience was also confused when something unexpected happened; both spells appeared again, but their positions were different from before.

The prison, made up of bones, surrounded the mage while the bony hands held Vinay's legs.

Vinay's eyes shone with a dead glint as he cast multiple 'Bone Spears.' The spears made up of bones appeared once again out of thin air and started approaching the mage.

The mage tried to cast his barrier spell but was unable to do so; the three spears made of bones bypassed the gaps in the cage made up of bones and nailed him to the ground.

Vinay again said "explode," and another explosion took place. The mage was not even able to blink his eyes when he saw himself covered in blood and filled with small pieces of bone.

He was horrified and flared up simultaneously; he said, "I will see you.." He wanted to say something more but was teleported out of the fighting ring.

"What an interesting match. It's rare to see a fight between two mages, but it is always entertaining. Vinay, this guy, I can never see through him; where was he in the earlier exam? Was he busy somewhere else?" the commentaspeculatedting on his thoughts.

"This junior is also very talented; he only used elementary spells, but his mastery of them is terrifying. His 'bone spears are of advanced level; they have the second property of explosion. Of all the dark mages I have seen, none have mastered it to that level," said Shreya as she looked at Vinay with curiosity in her eyes.

"His 'Bone Prison' is also an advanced version; it weakens the opponent while also having an effect known as 'My Territory,' which makes it impossible for any person inside it to use any barrier skill," she added.

"At last, his 'Hands of Death.' I know this is a ridiculous theory, but I believe the 'Switch Places' is an attribute it got at advanced level." she commented.

"can someone master three spells at advanced level?" said the commentator in disbelief.

"The world is big, and all kinds of talents are present there." Shreya sighed after completing her sentence.
