One hundred and five competitors lined up along the waterway, yet the nearly 200,000-square-meter competition area still felt spacious.
To the audience, the waterway stretched like a long ribbon, making the competitors seem tiny.
They could barely see the action with the naked eye; special electronic glasses were necessary for a closer view.
The walls of the waterway towered nearly ten meters high, resembling a grand canyon.
As the countdown lit up, a green light flashed, and all the competitors shot forward like arrows.
Water sparkled in the sunlight, but amid the frenzy, Lyra stood still.
The host zoomed by, surprised, "Why isn't NMA's Lyra moving? Is her hoverboard broken?"
Indeed, her board had issues—requiring more psychokinesis than the others made it heavy. But for Lyra, this was an advantage; she struggled to control her psychokinesis.
With a sly grin, she propelled herself forward, sending a dazzling spray behind her.
