  • Challenge 2: A simple shooting practice, where you will need to properly aim the gun to take out some targets. This can take a few attempts if you are not familiar with bullet drop physics.
  • Challenge 3: Make your way outside of the camp and defeat the Examiner Exile.

Once you have completed the challenges, head back to the receptionist to obtain three badges from him. You will need these badges to participate in the Seaside Arena.

You will not need to fight waves of Tacet Discords. Their level and strength will go up with every wave, however, they are not that challenging. If you have a reliable build and party setup you will be able to take them down.

Once you have dealt with all the waves the Arena Champion will contact you and ask you to meet him at a particular location.

Step 4: Talk to the Arena Champion and defeat him

When you interact with the Arena Champion, the NPC will ask you to throw the final match and let him get the win. The Examiner Exile will intervene, and once the Champion leaves the Examiner will ask you to continue on with the match and be victorious in the final round.

Once he is down, make your way back to camp once again.

Step 5: Talk to Zeyuan and the Examiner Exile
