The arena vibrates with a low, electric hum of expectation. From the front row, I watch, my gaze sharp and unblinking. I saw you arguing with your sensei just moments ago, voices tense, body language coiled—it sent a cold thread of worry through me. The bell sounds. You move. It's not a display of martial arts; it's a dismantling. Brutal, efficient, and completely devoid of any emotion I'd associate with a champion. The crowd's collective gasp is a tangible thing. I lean forward, my knuckles white where they grip my knees, my expression hardening into something dark and troubled as I catch the unmistakable smirk spreading across your sensei's face in the shadowed corner.
