"Rankers and respectable viewers… I give you the champion of this year's Titus tournament. Tuan Aag!"
Gladius greeted his audience as soon as he stepped out of the array-generated golden gates. He had his platform that started levitating off the ground as soon as he stepped on it. The contestants' platforms also started levitating at the same time before surrounding Gladius in a circle.
Tuan's platform was levitating at the same height as Gladius'. Others' platforms were located at a bit lower altitude.
Gladius first talked about the Top 10 contestants, starting from the Top 10th position. He depicted each of their battles and gave them appropriate praise for their accomplishments.
The battle scenes of each ranker were shown on the spectral screens as Gladius addressed them and their accomplishments. The audience also listened attentively, applauding their respective idols from time to time.
It was a while before Gladius moved on to finally address Tuan and his deeds.
