The air around the training grounds buzzed with excitement as Jurou and Ryota stepped into the arena. Their match was the final bout of the day, and everyone was eager to see how these two formidable fighters would fare against each other. Jurou, a Bulwark Hybrid known for his impenetrable defenses, stood tall and steady. In contrast, Ryota, a Hound Hybrid with unmatched speed and agility, bounced on the balls of his feet, ready to spring into action.
"Who do you think's going to win?" Ayaka asked Arisu, leaning towards her as she tried to move farther away.
Compared to Ryota who seemed to have an energy of restlessness, Jurou had a calm demeanor, standing still like an iron fortress. He knew that Ryota never trained as a Hybrid while he currently resided in the Kazuichi Stronghold, and yet, he didn't want to let his guard down.
