Bab 155: Tournament Opening Ceremony [2]

"Now, finally, let's welcome the first-year students!" the announcer's voice resonated throughout the colosseum, drawing a mix of curious murmurs and encouraging applause from the spectators.

The first-year students, who were still greenhorns in the eyes of the academy, walked in with a mix of nervousness and determination. They had yet to gain the recognition and prestige of their seniors, but their potential was undeniable.

Leading them was Adrian with Aria on his right side and Emeric on his left. They had to enter according to their rankings after the entrance exam. Behind them were Lyra, Ren, Aurelia, Aurelius, and the others.

"Look at those fresh faces," the announce remarked, watching the first-year students march in. "They may be unproven now, but you never know—some of them might become the next legends of this tournament. Just like the Dragon Maiden Ciel."
