The instructor explained the first stage of the competition using 3D projections to illustrate the layers of the labyrinth. "The rules for this stage are… There are no rules."
He stated flatly.
Most students tilted their heads in confusion. However, a few of the clever ones understood that this was merely natural, considering the reconditioning they were about to undergo.
That also meant students could decide to team up and tackle the maze, something they were glad they could do.
"The only rules around are the ones in the labyrinth itself. Make your way out in the given time, and avoid traps, void creatures and mana-draining sections.
"For this stage, the first person to make it out will be awarded 500 points. This is in addition to the number of points acquired in the labyrinth from killing void creatures."
The void creatures on each floor had been allocated points that students could gather when they killed them.
