End of the First Phase [4]

Once everything was in place, they relayed the information to several key figures. The First Phase was designed to filter out the truly powerful participants from the rest, while the Second Phase aimed to display the strength and potential of each Empire's future leaders.

It was an event that was typically broadcast across all four Empires for everyone to witness.

"Everyone get ready!"

"Get ready to start the broadcast in exactly an hour."

"Make sure that everything is ready."

Each Empire had its own dedicated broadcasting agency. They would broadcast the entire event from the main channel, free for all citizens to watch.
