The entire first group from the New Arcadia Empire looked pumped. One of the guys quickly moved to help Nayara walk.
She was struggling. Her ring power was totally drained—just one shot had taken everything out of her. But the force behind that shot was on another level.
Luckily, each group only fought once a day. With the help of the recovery hall, she'd be back to full strength by tomorrow.
They calmly left the arena. Seeing the looks on the other participants' faces, Nayara was satisfied. With the opening Darian gave them, using the bow at that moment wasn't a waste at all. It was a dominating win, and it definitely made every future opponent think twice about facing them.
Fear and extreme caution were the last things you wanted in a tournament like this. In life-or-death fights, sure, being careful made sense. But here? The winner would be the one who was more aggressive and unpredictable.
