Alex looked around, searching for Serene. He spotted her sitting in one of the VIP areas. Their eyes met, and they both nodded, a slight smile tugging at their lips.
On the opposite side of the arena stood the Noctshade Club, led by none other than Meika Noctshade.
As the Noctshade Club entered the battle arena, a single chant echoed through the stadium:
"Dark Demoness! Dark Demoness!"
Following them, the Rebel Club stepped into the arena.
This time, the chants split like thunderclaps across the crowd:
"Lioness of Roarhart!"
"Ice Phoenix Princess!"
"Fire Dragon!"
"Earth Dragon!"
Cheers erupted in divided waves, each group rooting passionately for their favorite warrior.
Alex took in the roaring crowd, feeling the electricity in the air. He muttered, "The crowd's unusually fired up today. Why?"
