Ronnie and Poppy were immersed in a state of sheer enjoyment when the much-anticipated main event finally unfolded before them.
Having savored a delightful array of food, they engaged in animated conversation regarding the impending commencement of their college classes.
Ronnie, brimming with anticipation, exclaimed, "It's high time we locate Anthony and the rest of the gang."
As they gracefully rose from their seats, Ronnie's gaze alighted upon a fleeting glimpse of their companions, prompting him to call out to them with unwavering excitement.
Among their comrades, Anthony John Manzi stood out—a man of shorter stature than Ronnie, yet his physique boasted an imposing build. On the other hand, James Maverick Nicholson exuded a slightly taller frame than Ronnie's, coupled with a well-defined physique. These distinct body types swiftly triggered Ronnie's recognition, prompting him to enthusiastically call out to his friends.
"Hey!" Anthony acknowledged with a grin that matched his exuberant tone.
Although they both briefly registered Poppy's unique mark, they seemed to shrug it off, their attention drawn to a different, impending grandeur.
While the significance of Poppy's mark lingered, an even more profound spectacle was on the cusp of unfolding—the inauguration of the tournament. As the hands of the clock inched toward 4 PM, the atmosphere became charged with anticipation, and a palpable hush swept through the assembled crowd.
At that electrifying juncture, the voice of the announcer cascaded through the air, marking the commencement of the grand event. The timbre of their words held a magnetic power, captivating the audience's attention and setting the stage for the thrilling competition that was about to unravel.
