Head Elder Li Ming's voice boomed across the arena, "Lian Chen of the Pagoda of Spear is victorious against Lin Xiu!" The spectators cheered loudly, their enthusiasm shaking the very air around them. Lian Chen then took a deep breath, feeling the thrill of victory wash over him as he withdrew his Azure Serpent Spear, its blade glinting under the arena lights.
"Next match, Wei Feng of the Pagoda of Sword versus Zhao Ming of the Pagoda of Sword!" Head Elder Li Ming announced.
Wei Feng stepped into the arena with an aura of calm confidence. Opposite him stood Zhao Ming, a tall and lean disciple, holding his sword firmly. "Senior Wei Feng, it's an honor," Zhao Ming said, clasping his fist in greeting. However, Wei Feng didn't return the gesture. He simply disregarded Zhao Ming's greeting and held his sword firmly in his hands, ready for battle.
