Chapter 557
"Welcome you all, to another year of Aetherian Academy's Tournament!" Leo began speaking as he stood up facing both the crowd and the big figures seated around him.
"I'm sure you all already know the people seated around me so I don't have to go into a full on introduction at this point. So right now, allow me call upon all the students that would be participating in this tournament out here, right now so we can begin."
Hearing this, the crowd all applauded in unison causing the coliseum to shudder a bit. Pointing his hand to the side, the door opened up and the students trickled in.
Slowly, ten blue bands walked out nervously but their weapons were in hand. After a few minutes of walking, they stood in the center of the raised platform.
The platform was around ten metres wide allowing for ample movement from anybody during the tournament and it was raised three metres off the ground.
