The crowd's energy remained electric as the announcer prepared to introduce the next match. The anticipation for each duel only seemed to grow, especially as fresh faces continued to step into the arena. The announcer's voice boomed across the stadium, pulling everyone's attention back to the battlefield.
The announcer's voice rang out once more, calling the next contestant to the arena.
"From Silver Veil Academy, we have Riven Althar, the Shadow Dancer! Known for his speed, precision, and unmatched agility, this young prodigy has already captured the attention of our judges and audience alike!"
The crowd erupted into cheers as Riven stepped onto the battlefield. His confident stride and sharp gaze made it clear he was no stranger to the spotlight.
Riven drew his rapier with a flourish, the blade catching the light as he twirled it expertly. He gave a small bow to the crowd before locking eyes with his opponent: a burly fighter wielding a heavy greataxe.
