Novillian Venatus Royale

The Novillian Venatus Royale (often shortened as NVR) is a contest where the participants fight each other until one person is left standing. The winner gets placed in the Champion tier 'Novillian' refers to the Ancient Novillians who started the contest. 'Venatus' refers to the fight itself. 'Royale' refers to a battle royal; a battle where the last person standing wins. The NVR is divided by three phases.

Preparation phase
The preparation phase takes place before the actual NVR. Once the prior Champion dies, the preparation phase gets announced by the Novillian Judges. During this phase, there are no rules or clear objectives. The purpose is purely to find out how strong every participant is since a Jade tier or higher is required to join the NVR. This phase lasts exactly a thousand days.

Registration phase
The second and shortest phase is the registration phase. During this phase, every participant with a Jade tier or higher gets to decide whether they join the NVR. They make their decision by calling one of the Novillian Judges. This phase lasts only two weeks.

Venatus Royale
The last phase is the Venatus Royale (often referred to as the 'actual NVR'). All participants who registered get teleported to the Colosseum of Space. There are no spectators; despite the large stand. After an official announcement, a countdown of 120 seconds starts. If someone attacks during the countdown, they get instantly disqualified and executed by the Overseer. The participant that survived the NVR will receive the Novillian Crown.
