Chapter 23: ***TOURNAMENT BEGINS***

The sun shone as a tall shirtless boy jumped up from his bed.

“It’s time, I have been training for this all my life” Bahr said as he walked out of his house.

At the centre of the town. People could be seen walking around and activities were bustling. They all knew this is the day of the Tournament that would change countless of lives.

“Hurry up, let’s move to the arena. I don’t wanna miss the first competition.”

“I think Bahr’s gonna get into the academy”

“My daughter has been training for years. I hope she succeeds”

“I would bet on Bahr”

“My son told me about a new kid who was very strong”

“Strong? So what, Bahr would still defeat him anywhere and any day”

This was the bickering between the males of the town.

The females continued their own discussions at another corner.

“Did you know, Dariuz is gonna to show his face at the arena” One of the ladies flushed red.

“You mean it? Ahhhhhh I want to marry him” some screamed out.
