Chapter 54 - Spar
Before long, Logan noticed a group of judges step onto a large podium at the far end of the arena, silencing every student in the common seats below.
’It’s about to start,’ Logan thought, bumping Robert with his arm to gain his attention.
Complete silence fell as two students walked onto the arena.
On one side, a girl with a short hairstyle, holding a rapier with a cold expression.
On the other side, a short boy holding a dagger in each of his hands with a wide smirk.
’They seem to be talking to each other,’ Logan thought, watching their mouths open and close. ’Too bad this box has noise cancelling.’
Suddenly, all advertisements vanished from the arena displays. One of the juries stood up, gesturing towards the arena with her hand.
Trees grew from the ground at random places, covering over half of the field. At the same time, Logan noticed tiny floating devices swirling through the artificial forest.
The screens above the arena and inside the elite podium changed, only showing two names.
’’Anna Ivanov VS Lucas Müller.’’ The screen flashed, before switching over to a 10-second cooldown.
’I wonder how strong students who’ve been here for four years are,’ Logan thought, tuning out the noise around him.
