Darwin's match happened after Floyd's and it ended just as quickly.
His opponent was a Mage just like him, Darwin baited her by casting a fake spell, causing his foe to cast Dispel to interrupt him but since it was fake, Darwin used that chance to hit her with a mana-enhanced kick which didn't count as a spell. His foe was dazed after the hit, and that's when Darwin used the spell: 'Thorned Vines' - to bind her and make her yield with at least five Magic Missiles aimed at her head.
Just like Cedric, Floyd, and Darwin were just here to defend their position. They were challenged and won, allowing them to do just that. That's why their battles were swift. Still, that doesn't mean that they weren't skilled. If anything, this displays their experience in stuff like this.
"I'm up next." Cedric heard Erica say beside him.
"Oh, good luck then." He said, patting her head a bit.
