It is only after their death will you be able to tell if they have feats or not and the approximate amount of feats. So Feats will be the proverbial bone of contention within the competition, not the position of last man standing.

Feats will be the main thing that people will be fighting over and they will need every edge that they can get. They will need weapons, armor, and healing pills that will be able to get them back into fighting conditions quickly. It is where the Wild card of the loot box comes in. 

Do I break the loot box or not? Do I fight that person or not? These are the pertinent questions the competitors have to ask themselves occasionally during this challenge. This is also an open world with open rules of engagement so anybody can take advantage of a fight by stalking the fighters.

You can't fight someone or a monster from a loot box and believe that no one will interfere. So it becomes important to ask yourself who to fight and which loot box to break. A loot box can produce weapons that will give you the edge to kill more people or it might produce a monster that will attract attention, chase you down, and generally be the end of you.

There are so many uncertainties. But not for him. He is certain that if he goes northeast by 15 degrees and walks for 117 meters he will find another loot box. This loot box is unlike the 20 or so around him with monsters inside them. That makes the ratio of good loot boxes to bad loot boxes become 1:20.

An uninformed person may be surprised by the ratio of monster loot boxes to actual loot boxes in their surroundings but he is not uninformed and he is not surprised. He knows that it is not a coincidence that he was teleported to this very section of the 7th ring. He can put the pieces of the puzzle together and come up with the idea that the arena spirits are hoping to drown him in monsters. Unfortunately for them, he won't fall for their bait.

"A space ring. Not bad." He said when he saw the loot box.

He can already see what is contained within the loot box from afar so he went close to it and cracked the box open with a punch. The box fell apart easily. He picked up the ordinary silver ring levitating above the ruined box. The ring will not increase his fighting prowess but it will be useful for holding other stuff that he finds. He wore it and started for the next loot box with loot in it. He didn't go too far before he stopped.

He paused and said dryly, "Another space ring."

This time, he is not so excited after seeing what the loot box contains. He already has a space ring. Having another one is redundant and outright useless when his first one is not doing anything.

"Another one isn't so bad." He managed to say.

He decided to get it. It is always good to prepare. An extra one means versatility. Besides, it is free of charge and it is not a monster. He broke the box and continued to the nearest loot box without a monster in it. What he saw made him frown.

"I have a bad feeling about this." He muttered.

There's another space ring in the loot box. That makes three in a row. He is either very lucky or something else is at play here. He left the loot box and went after another one in his vicinity without a monster within it. Only to find it has a space ring in it. He wasn't surprised at all by the outcome.

He smiled and said, "I see. That's what their game is."

They dropped him in an area very far from the first ring and filled the surrounding with loot boxes containing monsters. But there is a limit to the number of loot boxes with monsters that they can create per zone. They can't just make every loot box contain monsters. The rules dictate that they have to make loot boxes with actual loot at some point regardless of their unfavorable opinion of him. So they decided to make loot boxes that contain space rings. 

"I wonder what they planned next. Whatever it is, it had better be good because this is not." He said out loud to the arena spirits who are no doubt listening to him.

Then he continued his search. There's a limit to the amount of space rings that they can make per zone too. There must be something after that. Seeing as their plan is to eliminate him, then whatever they are planning must be serious because what he has seen is not enough to eliminate him. It is impressive that they placed all of these here before the challenge started but it is not effective yet.

He tried a lot more boxes after that and found the next thing that they are willing to give up. He found healing pills. They aren't the powerful ones either. It is the least powerful one that will help him to maintain his fighting prowess after being injured. 

"It is useless. It is not a surprise." He said as he examined the pill.

It is a white tablet-shaped pill with concentration-enhancing properties and there is only one of it within the box. A loot box can contain more than one item but not the ones around him. The ones around him seem to have decided to have the least amount of loot within them and also pretty useless ones too.

The arena spirits gave him healing pills after running out of monsters and space rings. It is the worst kind of healing pill and there's only one of it. It is lacking in both quality and quantity. He doesn't need to think too much to know that it is not by chance that he found it within a loot box close to his position.
