Sophia approached Rocky with a cocky smile on her face, her eyes glinting with the thrill of the anticipated duel.
She thought that while Rocky making short work of the rest of the students was expected, the two of them would have an epic battle as she considered herself to be equally as good, if not better than Rocky.
"Hope you saved some energy for me, Rocky. This won't be as easy as the others," she teased, twirling her sword with practiced flair.
"I don't want you to make the excuse that you were tired from fighting these losers later. This is a fair fight…." She said, as she continued with her mockery of the crowd.
Rocky simply nodded, his expression unreadable while his stance remained loose yet undeniably confident. "We'll see," he replied, his voice low and steady.
As the match began, Sophia launched a series of aggressive strikes aimed to test Rocky's defense.
