As soon as Arin turned back to look at Tessa, he suddenly heard the announcer's voice.
"We have a winner!!!"
Tessa had eliminated her opponent and also eliminated one of the two other opponents who fought.
Which ant...
"The winner of this tournant is... Greenfield Academy!"
"YESSSSSS!"
The students of Greenfield Academy instantly cheered, their voices so loud that others in the first part of the city could hear them.
A small smile ford on Arin's face as he stared at Tessa, who was also smiling.
Ron, who was seated in the front row of the arena after being eliminated, was also cheering.
Tessa and Arin were the two participants left standing, and they had successfully secured a victory for Greenfield Academy.
"The both of you can now exit the platform!" the announcer said.
Arin and Tessa ca down from the platform and joined Ron in the front row, though the other participants were glaring at them, especially the warrior girl whom Arin had defeated.
"Haha! Finally, we have co to the end of this tournant! The participants fought with all their hearts, and even though Greenfield Academy won in the end, your efforts have been recognized!"
The announcer continued praising the participants for another fifteen minutes more before he finally changed the topic.
"Okay! The King would have loved to speak to all the students in the arena, but it's already getting late, so he will surely visit the Academies in this Kingdom to address you all!"
Indeed, it was already getting late, and all the students would have to return to their various Academies along with their teachers, so there was no ti to do anything else.
After a few more words from the announcer, the tournant finally concluded, and all the students began moving towards the various carriages their Academy ca with.
They would leave the sa way they ca.
Though, like Orion had already ntioned, the participants would sleep in a dorm building in the arena.
"Ah, they should show us the dorm building already," Ron complained as he stared at the students who were leaving.
Slowly but surely, the seats were getting empty.
Before Tessa could say anything, three figures suddenly rushed towards them.
"Arin!" Leon exclaid as he approached Arin with a grin.
Hector and Lina were walking behind him.
"Miss Riya ntioned that you guys will arrive at the Academy tomorrow, so we decided to see you all before we leave," Lina said.
Tessa smiled. "Ouu... that's so sweet of you."
"I know..." Lina said as she suddenly hugged Tessa.
"Why are they acting like this is the last ti they will ever see each other?" Arin muttered as he diverted his attention to Leon.
"I knew our Academy would win," Leon said as he tapped Arin's back.
The ntion of their Academy winning made the other participants look at Leon with visible anger.
He shrugged before looking at Arin again.
"Yeah," Arin said. "It was tough, though."
"Haha, but we still erged victorious," Hector said.
They all spoke to each other for a few more minutes before Riya ca to get them.
Anger was visible on her face because their journey back to Greenfield Academy had been delayed because of the three of them.
Shortly after they left, Alex arrived and sat down next to Arin.
He was still considered a participant even though he didn't do anything in the tournant, so he would still have to sleep in the dorm building.
Finally, the announcer ca back from wherever he went to before.
"Alright, follow ," he said.
Instantly, the participants stood up and began following him until they arrived at a building.
It was a three-storey building and would be able to accommodate the 56 participants who were in this tournant.
"Okay, I will give each of you a tag, and the number written on it is your room number. Before it'll fully be night, a lady will bring clothes for each of you."
"And don't worry about the size of the clothes," the announcer added. "We already have your asurents."
With that, he began giving each of the participants a tag.
Finally, he gave Arin a tag.
The tag was like a small piece of polished wood, with a number written on it.
The number 50 was written on Arin's tag, aning that his room number was 50.
"Alright, you all can go in now."
They all nodded as the announcer walked away.
"My room number is 45," Tessa said as she leaned closer to Arin, wanting to see his room number.
"50, huh?" she muttered.
"Yeah, that's definitely the third floor," Arin said with a smile.
"Uh, my room number is 1!" Ron exclaid with a deep frown.
Alex, Arin, and Tessa chuckled after seeing Ron's expression.
"Well, my room number is 47," Alex said. "It'll either be the second floor or the third floor."
After chatting a bit more, they entered the dorm building and walked towards their various rooms.
They were all tired after the tournant. The battle, the tension, and the cheering were enough to make anyone tired, so most of them instantly slept off imdiately they entered their rooms.
Arin reached the third floor, and after a few steps, he arrived at a door that had the number '50'.
Imdiately he entered, he observed the room.
"There's not much difference between this room and the one in the Academy," he muttered.
"Hmm, this one is smaller, though," Seraphine said.
"I was already wondering when you would say sothing," Arin said as he sat down on the bed and pulled the bracelet from his wrist before dropping it on the floor.
In an instant, Roxanne appeared and lowered her head.
"Greetings, Master."
"Ah, I've kinda missed you both," Arin let the words slip from his mouth.
Because of the events in the tournant, it didn't even feel like one day. It felt like two weeks.
Roxanne chuckled, flashing her white teeth. "It's a honour..."
Arin didn't know what to reply. He just watched as she walked towards the window and began her staring session.
"A new view, huh?" he muttered to himself, watching as her expression changed when she realized that she could see a part of the entire arena from the window.
It was a good view.
Now, it was ti for sothing else.
"Seraphine, get ready. It's ti to initiate the plan..."
