Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!

After a few minutes of wild cheers that echoed to the heavens, the crowd fell silent in anticipation of the first battle. Only the sound of their hearts beating could be heard. With eyes opened wide, they watched carefully. Some even cast magic in their eyes so they could see clearly, and in their ears, so they could hear better.

DING!!! DING!!! DING!!!

At the sound of the large gong, the battle started. 

The Liam Twins attacked first. The older of the twins who held the scythe teleported swiftly towards the man with the golden eyes and swung her scythe towards him. The man easily evaded her strike and teleported at her back. He aimed his arms towards her back and a ball of wind formed on his palm.
