The Lirandel Grounds' arena had massive stone tiers adorned with banners from the twenty-four knight academies of the eastern region of the Kingdom.
There were plenty of people who would visit this huge town during this time of the year, not just to witness the debut of many young trainee knights, but also to conduct business.
There were many nobles who also wanted to see the future of their region and perhaps, scout them while they were young.
Aside from the nobles, merchants, and commoners alike filled the stands, as they all looked up to the Aura Knights. They certainly wanted to be aware of these people who might spread their names in the future once they grew up.
As the event was about to start, the scent of roasted meats and spiced wine mingled with the metallic hint of armor and sword, filled the arena… They could even hear some distant clash of practice duels from the training pits below, as they prepared for the competition.
