Shi Lang and the team suited up and they were taken to a ring. This was the arena for their group battle stage. They sat in a room overlooking the arena ground. From this room, they could even enter the pilot cockpit of their mechas with ease. They did not have any barriers around them except for a magnetic field that will come down after the battle has ended.
For whatever it mattered, a medical team was always standing by to help the contenders in perilous conditions. However, they could only enter the field when the battle has ended, if the hurt contender could not say the three magical words, 'I admit defeat' in time, and the opponent killed him then it was all done for.
Shi Lang had decided to keep his position flexible. He will enter the battle depending on the situation. The other thing was the technical consoles placed inside the observation room. This was for the team to monitor the situation of the mecha during the battle.
