"Welcome to the main stages of the international tournament!!" the emcee spread his hands wide and announced.
Finally, the crowd could not hold themselves any longer, erupted into loud cheers and boos. Their supporters cheered the names of different countries on one after the other. They all held placards and posters as they cheered. Some people even erected betting rings at certain positions on the arena to get quick money. Those in authority saw this but let it slide in order to let civilians have fun.
"As I said earlier, this will be an individual tournament due to the unevenness of the number of participants. And because of this, the prizes will be individually distributed and not nationally" At the mention of 'prizes', the ears of every individual present in the arena perked up "The prize for the holder of the third position will be one elemental OR psychic ability orb of their choice, two hundred and fifty elemental gems, and fifty energy stones"
