Capítulo 2265: Experts

Emery stepped into the arena, his every movement calculated as he prepared to face Grand Magus Knox, the towering combat expert from Hall 33.

The atmosphere was electric with anticipation. All eyes were on them, as the outcome of this battle would determine the fate of their halls in the advancement challenge.

Among the thousands of spectators, many were unfamiliar with Emery. They saw only a Full Moon Magus, a rank considered inferior to the status of a Grand Magus like Knox. Moreover, Emery had missed the last tournament, leaving his capabilities largely unknown to the wider audience. Whispers of mock rippled through the crowd, predicting the outcome of Emery's demise.

Grand Magus Knox, as a veteran combatant, had prepared thoroughly, gathering intelligence on all potential challengers, and was well aware of Emery's reputation.
