Maria returned just on time to witness the start of the battle between the water bear and the purple python. From what Maria had heard, this was one of the rare beast only battles. They would happen rarely because the tamers would prefer to get out of the arena and take down an opponent.
This kind of battle was normally more popular with the younger tamers. However, some of the people rushing to get seats still were bragging about how the woman participating preferred to use battles like this to constantly strengthen the individual might of her beasts.
"How did it go?" Clark waited for Maria to respond before he returned his focus to the fight.
