Everyone had seen Murkel get trapped in the strange cube-like structure made from the hardened arena walls. It wasn't ordinary concrete; it was a special material carved from the strongest pieces by the greatest craftsmen, making it as sturdy as possible.
They knew Pagna warriors could break such a thing if the fighting got out of hand or a large amount of Qi was used, but they had the artifact that could always just reuse and rebuild the material.
However, if Murkel had escaped, there should have been some sign of destruction. Either breaking one of the walls or breaking the material below his feet, yet other than the wall that Rayna had broken, everything else looked perfectly fine.
"Where is he? Where is he!" Rayna shouted. "He couldn't have gotten away!"
She then proceeded to slam a fist full of Qi into the walls next to her, shattering the entire structure, but Murkel was nowhere to be seen.
