The Arena was full of life as the students waited in excitement for the tournament to begin.
The hologram that floated just above the arena displayed the names of the upcoming opponents.
[Devon Zuberi, First Year.
Andrew Bellshot, Second Year.]
A wave of murmurs immediately rose among the crowd.
"A first year?"
"Is this a joke?"
"Bellshot's gonna crush him."
Linda leaned forward, fingers tightening around her snack bag. "They really put Devon up against a second year right away."
Cass looked at the hologram and shook his head, "there isn't much of an option anyway, it was either a second or third year, since there's only three first years."
"I see," Linda nodded before digging into her bag and tossing a piece of candy in her mouth.
Cassian, on the other hand, lifted his head towards the VIP section. That was where the noble families gathered, and he was completely sure that the Burns were there.
