After deciding who would fight, Elder Yawan explained about their opponent. To prevent cheating and manipulation, they could only fight the other examinee who was taking the test today. In return, if their opponent wins, they will be considered to pass today's entrance tests.
Unfortunately, not many people are participating in today's test. Because of yesterday's event, many examiners died from the explosion or were afraid of coming for the test. Most people decide to wait for Angus' group to pass before participating in the test again.
They don't want to gamble their life just to experience another crazy thing like yesterday. Although most survivors are high-grade, they still don't want to risk their lives by getting near Angus' group.
Some participants even leave the town to avoid getting involved with them. Therefore, there are only a few participants in the plaza. Most of these people truly need to enter Nirvas or have some important business with Nirvas.
“Everything is both simpler than we can imagine, and more complicated that we can conceive.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
