While there had been a certain degree of randomness in the way the factions had been pitted against each other. The strongest factions had been spread far apart, ensuring that their clash would happen at the very end.
After all, delaying their exchange would build up the anticipation.
Today's clash was simply bad luck for the Radiant Sky, being pitted against the Sacred Order.
To create a truly impressive spectacle, since this was the tournament's opening battle and would set expectations for all that followed, only Nicole had been chosen to represent her faction.
Of course that meant she was also the leader. Beating her meant that the Radiant Sky would emerge victorious.
However, everybody knew… that this wasn't possible.
As people watched the battle live, their eyes were fixed on Nicole, who soared above the ground akin to a deity…
Only for the chat to go insane as she suddenly blinked out of existence!
