Chương 93: Chapter 16: The Champion’s Trial

The crowd roared as the lights dimmed in the massive arena. The energy was electric, the air thick with anticipation. Jack, Ruby, and the rest of the spectators had gathered for one reason—to witness the reigning champion, Darius Novak, defend his title against a new challenger: Amir "The Bull" Hassan, ranked second in the world.

"Do you think he'll win this one?" Ruby asked, leaning toward Jack as they watched from the VIP section.

Jack shrugged, his eyes fixed on the ring. "Darius is the best for a reason. But Amir's no pushover. He's got a reputation for taking down anyone who underestimates him."

Ruby smirked. "Sounds like someone we know."

Jack chuckled. "Yeah, but I'm not the one fighting tonight. Let's just see if Darius can keep that belt."

Down in the locker room, Darius sat on a bench, wrapping his hands with precision. His coach stood nearby, giving last-minute advice.
