The training room used for duels was a huge facility designed in a way that could easily replicate any environment through spatial magic.

There were several screens where the audience could watch the ensuing battle without fear of being hurt in any way.

The crowd that had earlier gathered at the Serdana dorm slowly made its way towards the training room among them, countless other students from other classes and dorms had also joined in.

The news that two members of the elite class were about to duke it out had spread like wildfire and everyone wanted a piece of the action.

In the prep room, Arnik watched anxiously as Rowan prepared himself for the fight. He looked confident.

A bell rang in the arena signaling both fighters to come out.

Arnik quietly left the room behind Rowan, he didn't like this situation but, since it was something Rowan had decided for himself, he couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.
