Capítulo 856: Tragedy

The battles in the metal arena continued, interrupted only by occasional spectacles that acted as breaks and promoted the tournament's rewards. Some announcements were purely scientific, but the wealthy parties knew enough about the topic to understand its appeal.

As for the contestants, the majority was average. Everyone was hungry for fame and glory, but the reality of the situation was quite depressing. Those descendants had ambition and drive but lacked the talent, training, and techniques to shine.

Of course, a few exceptions had popped out, but the tournament had just begun, so no major party tried to hire anyone. That was bound to change, but more descendants had to be eliminated first.

Despite the lack of significant events, everyone seemed to enjoy the tournament. The lower families loved the free exposure, especially when the nobles were part of the audience. The chance to seize precious resources and items also fueled their excitement.
