The announcement echoed through the colossal colosseum, signaling the arrival of Silas' team to the stage. Silas, alongside his teammates, walked out in unison, a mixture of anticipation and determination etched across their faces. On the opposite side, their adversaries mirrored their posture, each team flanked by stern-looking men in suits who led them to their designated positions.

The dirt ground parted, revealing an innermost fighting ring, a battlefield awaiting the clash of champions. Silas' team coach, the teacher of combat theory, stood right beside them, ready to lay out the rules for this stage of the tournament.
