The day of the last competition finally arrived.
Alex couldn't help but feel somewhat nervous, as this day would have a large impact on his future.
He had arrived at the stadium early on and was sitting in the hall alongside his friends, who were also quite nervous. All 100 of them were present there, not a single one missing.
No one would want to miss it for the world.
Alex looked around at everyone who was silently waiting. Not a single person bothered with small talk at this point. Each person around them was their greatest opponent, after all.
Leafheart sat in a corner close to him, her eyes completely shut as she cultivated, preparing for the start in a few hours.
Dusklily sat not far away, looking through some sort of talisman constantly, seemingly trying to learn something at the last moment.
Aethersage was like him, looking around the hall at the other people, trying to push his own thoughts away as they distracted him.
