Sword Rankers
Final Test: One Vs One

Team Ran was automatically teleported back to the exam building after the 2nd test ended.

Ran looked around, clearly there were only a few people left, the building that was originally filled with many people, now only a little more, until the originally crowded exam building, which was, now it feels so relieved that there are at least a few people left.

Ran glanced around, he wanted to see people he might know. And sure enough, there is a team that Ran knows, the team that Ran first defeated, it is the team of the woman who wears a kimono, the woman along with her team in a battered state.

Ran thinks to go to him, but he knows that it is a very bad idea, so he undoes his intentions, Ran turns around to avoid passing them. The sensitive William, followed Ran without asking anything.

But, the woman with the kimono even went to Ran first, "Wait! You're the ones who beat us, right?"

Ran did not reply, the others did not, they all remained silent and left as if nothing had happened.

The woman in the kimono remained insistent, despite knowing that she was being ignored, she kept shouting to Ran's team, "You listen to this! I don't know what reason you guys didn't eliminate us, but you'll regret continuing to underestimate me! You remember that!"

After shouting, the woman turned around and went to her team place again, in her heart, Ran set one thing, I will not hesitate anymore!

Then as usual, Ranker Amare and Ranker Emily appeared mysteriously on the stage in the middle of the room.

"Congratulations to you, the 40 people who successfully passed the team exam this time." Ranker Emily congratulates.

Then continued by Ranker Amare, "Honey very well... I'm sure you've all tried hard to work together, but the final test will be done individually. Alias, you're going to fight one on one. Hehe..."

Bhuakk...

Ranker Emily hits Ranker Amare's stomach to keep him quiet.

"It hurts woi!"

"Shut up! If you don't stop, the test won't start."

"Yes yes I understand."

After a brief debate between the two of them, Ranker Emily begins the explanation for the 3rd exam, aka the final exam.

"Ekhemmmm... As I said before, this final exam will be conducted individually. Each one of you will fight the other participants in a one-on-one fight. But the good news is, this last test only requires one fight to pass."

The whole room became rowdy.

Just one time? That easy?

It's unbelievable.

Did ya?

Steady.

Hopefully my opponent will not be too strong.

Everyone was busy talking about the final exam which turned out to be easier than they expected, Ran was also surprised by this announcement.

Just one time? So I only need one win and can pass? And after that become a Ranker? It's hard to believe, it feels like my dream is getting so close.

Ran subconsciously clenched his hands, his spirit regained after hearing the announcement, it felt like just one more step to achieve his dream, just one more step to be able to prove himself.

"Ekhemmmm... Please calm down, there's still news we haven't delivered. In addition to only needing one victory, you also only need one defeat to fail. So if you fail the first fight, you will fail to become a Ranker."

Everything was tense again, for a moment they forgot about the risk of defeat, if they lost, they would fail and there would be no more opportunities.

"HahaHaha... Ahey! Ahey! Ahey! Don't be so tense, if you fail, you can take the exam next year. Well... That's even if you still have the guts to come again." Ranker Amare said casually.

But everything is not relaxed, everything is tense because their final fate will be determined here.

Then, there was a participant who raised his hand to ask, "Sorry, I want to ask."

"Please." Ranker Emily gave him permission.

"What about the fight? Are we going against our previous comrades?"

"It's not certain, the battle line-up will be determined at random, there's a chance that you'll fight your own comrades, but that's uncertain, because we'll make a balanced fight. Participants who will fight each other will have more or less the same power statistics, to be more fair."

Ran was a little relieved to hear that, at least he would not fight William or Eduardo because of their vast difference in strength. But he is worried that he will face Enzo who is not too strong.

"Already, don't think about it, now let's get to the fighting arena."

The entire building shook, the stage where Rankers Emily and Amare descended underground, along with that, a marble staircase appeared to go down.

The participants looked at this suddenly-appearing basement. In the basement, there is a luxurious colosseum, and outside of the colosseum, there are various food stalls.

Whahuh? Colosseum but outside there are modern food outlets? Who thinks like this? He's drunk or something.

Although a little doubt, one by one the participants came down through the marble stairs that suddenly appeared, the marble staircase leads to the front door of the colosseum, which leads to the door of the colosseum, inside the Colosseum Ranker Amare and Emily stood on the same stage.

Participants enter one by one into the colosseum.

"The last test will be held in 30 minutes, in that time, you are free to enjoy the food that has been provided, and of course it is free hahahaha..." Amare Ranker.

Most participants hesitated, but some unsuspecting went to the food stall and took the food already provided in it.

Ran was among the most hesitant with this food stall, while the other participants started to take food, Ran was still confused on the spot.

Seeing Ran who was just a wink, William took the initiative to invite Ran to eat, "Ran, Let's eat, we haven't eaten for 1 day, surely you are hungry once, right?"

"eeee... Well... Right, but I'm a little hesitant about this."

"Already Ran, do not be too suspicious, after all there is no way the Rankers will harm us, they have made many rules so that no one dies on this dangerous test."

Ran was still hesitant, but seeing William's very convincing eyes, Ran finally accepted William's invitation to eat, "Here you go, let's eat."

"Mklphh..." William smiled happily at Ran's reply.

Eduardo who was around them was amused by Ran and William's interaction, "Iuhhh... What the fuck are you guys? Amused to know, just keep your bromance scene to yourself."

"What the hell are you!? There go."

"Yes, I'm going."

"Aahaha..."

...****************...

Ran sits with William and Enzo at the same dining table, each of them taking a different meal.

William took a food package containing fish and vegetables.

Enzo took the sandwich.

Ran took a burger and fries

"Eh Will, do you like fish?" Ask Ran.

"Hmm...? Not really, but this food menu has the most balanced nutrition compared to other food menus."

"Wahaha... A very predictable answer, huh." Enzo laughed loudly, though William did not understand what was funny.

They eat their own food, but when William sees the oil coming out of Ran's burger and fries, he comments on the food Ran took.

"Ran, doesn't the food you took look a little unhealthy?"

"Muhokkk..." Ran choked on hearing William's words.

Enzo laughed again

"really right? It seems that the meat used is too oily, the existing sauce looks too much and is not necessarily healthy, not to mention the fries are also very oily, too, it could be that the oil used is an oil that has been used repeatedly."

"Ehehe... Well... Indeed, I must admit that this food is not healthy, but I also can not refuse it. I used to work at a fast food restaurant, there was a fierce but good boss. As a result, this food always reminds me of them." Said Ran with a slightly sad expression.

William understands what Ran feels, but...

"I understand Ran, you must be missing right? But still it's not healthy! Reduce eating such foods if you want to be strong, increase your vegetable intake!"

"Muhokkk..."

A crushing attack landed on Ran.

While Enzo still continues to laugh until the food in his mouth splashed everywhere.

.

.

.

Ran, Enzo and William had finished eating, coincidentally too, the break time was up, therefore the three of them went straight into the colesseum to see the fight schedule.

Inside the colesseum, there is a large screen mounted on the wall of the colesseum, there is a fight schedule on the screen.

On the first schedule, there is the name Rocky, the big man who annoys Ran on the first day of the exam, he is paired to fight with someone named Dracko.

Ran was looking for his fight schedule, he found it not long later, Ran's name is in the 5th fight and paired to fight with someone named Andre. Ran breathed a sigh of relief because he did not have to fight with William or Eduardo, but the bad side was that he did not know anything about the man named Andre.

Meanwhile, William's name is in the 3rd fight against a person named Jack, then Enzo's name is in the 4th fight and will fight a person named Bagas, who is also known as Bagas, and Eduardo's name was in his 2nd fight against a man named Frank.

Ran clenched his hands, he tried to focus and not underestimate his opponent, because all who managed to get through here must be strong people because they were able to survive so far.

The first fight is about to start, Rocky and Dracko walk out the door in opposite directions. They both seemed ready for whatever was to happen.

Dengs

The bell rings as a sign of the start of the fight.
