Under Xu Mu's command, Blaziken began mercilessly picking off the freshmen one by one.
Every freshman he targeted was eliminated with almost no chance to fight back.
Fortunately, Blaziken still gave them a chance to show what they could do. He couldn't just knock them all out instantly like Venusaur had.
That would have made things far too difficult for Xu Mu and the teachers.
If everyone was knocked out in the same instant, how could they tell who had performed well and who hadn't?
In less than fifteen minutes, the Second Formation had fallen.

If the thought didn't send chills down their spines, it certainly made their skin crawl!
"All right, students whose names I call, step forward. You can go back and rest."

Well, novices were all their current skill level warranted...
"Understood!" the freshmen answered in unison.
Even after Xu Mu had crushed them head-on once
