The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

Rishi and his guild members emerged from the dungeon and decided to spend the night resting. Dev also advised Lalit, Manu, and Jay to rest and avoid training so that they could give their best performance. All of this was in preparation for their first job advancement the following day.

After a good night's sleep, Rishi and his friends gathered the following day to teach the members how to make the right decision. Dilip also advised Manu about what should be his priorities when selecting a suitable Job class and element.

Jay, Manu, and Lalit listened intently to other guild members' suggestions. Following that, they all said the word "Awaken," and a screen appeared in front of them, asking, [Do you want to participate in trial 1?" asked Yes or No.]

They all said "Yes" and were teleported away. Rishi and the other guild members waited patiently for them to finish their first job advancement.

Jay, Manu, and Lalit gave their best and cleared all trial stages one by one; They appeared one by one after a while. They informed the other guild members that they had all completed their trials. Jay was the biggest winner because he got a rare job class on his first promotion.

"Jay, could you tell me more about your class?" Dev asked.

"My class is called Wind Archer; it is a rare grade job class that is only available to people who are exceptionally talented in archery and have a strong affinity for the wind element," Jay explained.

"That sounds cool," Ajit said.

"So you've awakened the wind element?" Rishi.

"Yes, my class would be rendered useless if I chose any other element, and the wind is also the element with which I have the strongest affinity," Jay responded.

"And how about you, Manu? What job class did you choose?" Dev asked. Dilip looked at Manu to hear his response.

"I was given many options, including a rare Grade Job class called Mana Lancer, but I chose the Spearman class as instructed by senior brother Dilip," Manu explained.

When Dilip heard Manu's response, he nodded and smiled with satisfaction, while everyone else was taken aback by his response.

"You could have gone with Mana Lancer Manu. It's a Rare Grade class with a lot of magic Damage, whereas Spearman is only an Uncommon Grade class." Dev commented,

"Yeah, but I think that class isn't suitable for me," Manu replied.

"It looks slightly different at the start, but you get used to it soon enough; You would not have been offered that class if it was unsuitable for you. You should have given your decision more thought, Manu," Dev said disappointedly.

"Enough, Dev; you have no right to lecture my follower; it's his own decision," Dilip said, standing between Dev and Manu.

"You're ruining his life, Dilip; not everyone is as talented as you; Life doesn't give you many chances to succeed; this was one of them. He missed it because of you; do you even realize what you've done?" Dev asked.

"It was my decision; Senior had nothing to do with it," Manu explained.

"Manu, you missed a huge opportunity because you believed his nonsense; you have no idea what kind of guy he is; I've known him for two years. Guess how many times I have seen him train?" asked Dev.

"Never," replied Dev with a pause.

"He never trains, but when it comes to ability, he has even defeated a teacher; he is lazy and always sees everything around him as a joke and everyone around him as a follower," Dev said solemnly.

"He can be a good friend but never a good teacher; how can someone who has never trained teach you?" he continued.

"You're crossing the line, Dev; if it had been anyone else, I would have ripped his mouth apart," Dilip said as he clenched his knuckles.

"You can ask Ajit if you think I'm lying; it's enjoyable for him to have someone around who praises him and does all of his work. He'll never be serious about teaching you because he looks for fun and joy in everything; think about how much you've learned from him."

"He always assigns you difficult tasks and then enjoys punishing you; he is no less sadistic than Orcs we met at the dungeon; both find pleasure in the pain of others," Dev explained. He wanted to continue when he got slapped by Dilip, It shook Dev's entire body.

Dev'd words hurt Dilip a lot because somewhere inside, he knew that some things that Dev said about him were true, but only some things were true, not all.

"It's up to you whether you believe him or believe me," he said to Manu. "If you agree with him that following my advice costs you ample opportunity, you are free to leave; I will not stop you."

"But if you trust me even a little bit, meet me at the training hall at 3 PM," Dilip said before looking at Dev one last time and walking away, looking for somewhere to vent his anger.

Jay gave Dev an angry look; he had no idea his supportive senior could say such harsh words. He was aware that Dilip had been hurt, It was well known that words could sometimes hurt far more than any weapon.

He decided to leave, and as he turned to go, he heard Dev, "You will thank me one day for what I did today." Manu chose to ignore Dev and leave.

"Why did you do that, Dev?" Ajit asks after Jay has left. "I've known you for long, and you've never done anything like that."

"It was necessary to make Dilip feel some responsibility and become serious about training, or else Manu would have fallen behind," Dev explained. This response increased everyone's admiration for Dev.

When Rishi saw this, he smiled and decided to change the subject. "What class did you choose, Lalit?" he inquired.

"Mage, I saw a need in our guild and chose that class," Lalit retorted sarcastically.

"It's not the time to joke, Lalit; respond honestly," Ajit said.

"What would I have chosen if I was only offered one class? That too, tank," Lalit asked, with a sad expression on his face. This response made everyone laugh; almost all people are given multiple classes to choose from, only a few unfortunate people are given only one choice."

"Don't be too hard on yourself. It's your first job promotion; you can get a better class next time. What about the element?" Rishi inquired.

"I had many elements with high affinity, but I awoke the earth element," Lalit explained.

"What were the other components?" Ajit inquired.

"Metal, fire, and water," Lalit replied.

.

.

Rishi and his guildmates trained for two days straight, both weekends, so they didn't miss any class. After Manu, Lalit, and Jay advanced in the game, their team became much more powerful.

Rishi even reserved a dungeon for them to gain as many levels as possible; he and the other guild members trained and discussed strategies.

Ajit has even given Rishi a list of all the powerful guilds participating in the tournament, Rishi was surprised to learn that many large guilds were skipping this year's guild competition to compete in a larger inter-academy tournament with a much larger prize pool.

​ The news overjoyed Rishi, Now that all the big players had gone, the situation had changed. It was the best chance to become famous in the academy.

He knew he wasn't the only one who thought this; many other guilds would try to capitalize on this opportunity, which meant many more guilds would participate in this competition, he reasoned before adding, "But that's good; getting first by only racing alone won't be fun."
