It was a distant yet mesmerizing sight.
Aria Everstone sat frozen in her seat, her eyes fixed on the spectacle before her.
"The winner is... the disciple of white Cherry blossom Aiden, Vera! Vera!"
The audience, overwhelmed by the breathtaking display, was momentarily stunned into silence. But it wasn't long before someone's cheer ignited a chain reaction, and the entire crowd erupted into raucous applause.
"Wow!!! Incredible!"
"With this, the battle of the Younger Generation is unpredictable!"
"That's right! Now I'm looking forward to the Skyward Assembly in three years!"
Everyone rose to their feet, offering resounding applause. Even Aiden, her master, joined in, clapping with a serene smile. Aria also rose slowly, her gaze lingering on Aiden as she politely applauded.
"...Alright, everyone, settle down for a moment," a voice called out.
