As Malakai entered the space, all eyes turned toward him. One of the guards in black suits approached.
"You're mandated to wear this."
Malakai looked at the object in the man's hand. 'A regulator.'
He wasn't surprised. Rhett had already told him this would happen. To make things interesting, all contestants had to fight at Genesis level strength.
He nodded and slipped it on, immediately feeling his strength drop to the Genesis stage.
'I still have my Vita sense.' Despite the regulator, he could still feel the flow of Vita around him.
"Wait here and go through that door when your name is called." The guard gestured to the biggest door at the far end of the room before turning and walking away.
Malakai shifted his gaze across the room.
Some contestants stood, hunched against walls. Others were crumpled on the floor, bruised and bloody, struggling to breathe. A few sat comfortably on side benches, unbothered.
