On the holographic screens of the arena, Aelith's battle was broadcast in all its intensity, leaving the audience in ecstasy. As the leader of the rankings, she was watched closely by both the spectators and the kings in the Hall of Monarchs.
Aelith stood in the middle of a vast icy plain, facing an army of spirit beasts. Spectral ice wolves, crystal eagles, and a snow colossus with glowing eyes surrounded her.
Raising one hand, Aelith called upon her power, creating a dome of thick snow and translucent shields that reflected the pale light of the surroundings. The beasts advanced with ferocity, but she remained steadfast.
With a quick movement, she whispered,
"Dominion of the Glacial Darkness!"
A wave of black ice spread across the plain, instantly freezing the smaller beasts. The spectral wolves were transformed into ice statues that shattered at the slightest touch. The audience in the arena erupted in applause.
