Correct answer: C
Answer: Fight
Meaning:
"Joust" means to fight or engage in combat, originally referring to a contest between mounted knights; by extension it can mean to compete or clash in a contest.
Why "Fight" is correct: It is a direct synonym in the sense of engaging in combat or a duel.
Why the other choices are incorrect: "Freak" means an unusual person or thing; "Prank" means a trick or joke; "Niter" is a chemical (potassium nitrate) and unrelated to combat or competition.
