Chapter 417: Blood Moon and Shattered Lake
Stars Kingdom, 9:30 PM, Galaxia National Sports Arena.
This open-air stadium, built by a legendary spellcaster, requires no additional light sources. By merely gathering and reflecting the starlight, it can make the entire arena as bright as daytime, with the spotlight effect achieved by adjusting the mirrors. At this time, 4,600 seats were filled with students and faculty from the colleges of Galaxia. As the smooth arena floor was transformed into a shallow ground by the Miracle of Earth and Wood, an uproar erupted from the crowd. Apart from the students of Truth College who clapped vigorously, the rest of the students couldn’t help but curse.
“Big thanks to the Death Chant Phantom Band for their amazing performance!” Arsenault’s clear and bright voice cruised over the stadium, quelling the students’ commotion. “Next, we have the final segment of the College League opening ceremony—the Meteor Trial!”
“Please welcome the contestants!” another female host announced. “First up is a freshman from Swordflower College’s Swords Sect, two-wings spellcaster, Sonya Therave!”
As Sonya emerged from the tunnel, a pillar of starlight focused on her, making her combat attire glitter brightly. Fireworks erupted at the entrance, forming patterns of swords and roses, and the thunderous applause from thousands of people welcomed the village girl into the combat arena!
Eight massive holographic screens simultaneously displayed her front, side, and angled views. But thanks to the stage makeup that Lois and others had spent an afternoon perfecting, along with the ‘Fixed Day’ spirit’s enhancement, Sonya’s beauty was flawless from any angle. No amount of starlight could overshadow her radiance. She proudly raised her chin, basking in the attention.
As she stepped onto the shallow ground stage, Sonya glanced at the commentary booth, thinking that her greatest luxury two months ago was merely to be seated there, introducing the new generation of Stars in Galaxia.
Even she hadn’t imagined that two months later, she would become one of the Stars herself.
And next, she needed to prove that she was the brightest star!
