At ten o'clock in the morning, the Rank matches at the Arena commenced punctually!
In the venue, the eight sub-arenas and one main arena were all hosting matches simultaneously, with each competition ground filled to capacity with spectators.
The sub-arena where Rocky was competing was located at the southeast side of the venue at the number three platform, and as the match time drew near, the venue gradually filled with people. The audience count exceeded that of the preliminary selection by more than double, easily numbering four to five thousand.
Four to five thousand spectators represented the entire audience for the Rank matches because, be it in terms of quality, highlights, excitement, or even the level of bloodiness, the Rank matches were a notch above the preliminary selection, and so naturally, the audience for the Rank matches far outnumbered those from the preliminaries.
"Ladies and gentlemen! The first round of today's Rank matches is about to begin! Let's cheer!"
