This grand event, in general, would usually involve elderly fighters.
So, Sisson's approach took many by surprise.
But Sisson had his own logic and reasons.
He had just received a warning not long ago.
Adam defeated that person's incarnation?
If someone else told him this, Sisson wouldn't believe it.
However, this matter was voiced by the said person himself. Sisson had no choice but to believe it.
Given this event did occur, it clearly signified Adam's strength....
Due to some unique considerations, Sisson decided to use this Fighter Competition as a special assessment. Adam was included for this reason.
Of course, Celine was not aware of these intricate details.
However, she understood that there must be a rationale if Sisson had spoken thus.
All she needed to do was to obey obediently.
Without a word, she turned and left, presumably to prepare.
Even after Celine left, the others present did not relax but continued their matches unstinted.
