The fun idea was, of course, turning out to be an hour-long sparring session between the students and the combat instructor.
This batch of students was much more seasoned than the first years, they would last an hour of sparring. Hopefully.
Among the students, Warden found a familiar face. Liam sat in one corner, his face twisting in surprise upon seeing him as he nodded at Warden. Unlike Kiara, who was probably on leave, this was the first time Liam was seeing him since they left the village. And, of course, he was wondering how it all turned out like this.
As everything was prepared, Warden said, "Only sparring might get a little boring after a while. How about this: If any of you manage to land a scratch on me, I will reward them with 100 credit points."
