"Students, auxiliaries, professors," Director Ignatius's voice resonated throughout the stadium. "The first trials of the Two Hundred and Forty-Eighth Semester Tournament officially begin."
The audience fell silent as the Director yielded the attention to the professors of different years to continue.
In the first-year stadium, Yang continued, his gravelly voice carrying effortlessly across the arena:
"Team One of Group A, prepare to face the Big Stone Lurker. Remember: coordination, strategy, and prudence. The objective is to demonstrate that you can defeat the beast together, not to showcase individual bravery."
Ron and his teammates entered the arena, wearing the characteristic black uniform with chest protections. Their steps were confident, almost swagger, as they approached the center.
