So, this was the person they were looking for. It would only make sense that she was the champion of the pit...

“That’s her,” Roy said, drawing a nod out of Kimoura.

“Maybe we should wait and observe,” the light adept suggested. “If she’s the champ, then she’s gotta know how to fight.”

“Agreed,” Roy said, scooting to the edge of his seat in anticipation. Below, Stonebreaker and the Black Queen began to square off at the pit’s center, eyes now locked in a heated stare.

“Reeeeaaady?” The announcer asked, returning to her perch near the arena’s edge. “Fight!”

Stonebreaker immediately smashed his fists together, reforging his armor of stone as he waded in for an attack. Rin responded in kind, dropping low and awaiting her opponent’s approach with azure energy swirling in her palm.

Stonebreaker struck first, swinging in with a powerful right hook that seemed powerful enough to take off Rin’s head! However, the woman proved to be quite nimble, ducking the blow before slamming an open palm into the man’s side. Pure spirit energy suddenly erupted from her hand, shearing away a piece of Stonebreaker’s rocky defenses and sending him staggering through the sand.

Not wasting a single breath, Rin lunged at her off-balance opponent, drawing pure azure aura into her palms. Stonebreaker made a desperate attempt to right himself, digging his heels in and crossing his stony arms in defense. And yet, it would prove all but futile...

A sound like hammer on stone echoed through the arena as Rin slammed her aura-infused palms into her enemy, shattering portions of his rocky flesh and spilling more of his blood with each successive blow.

Roy found it fascinating how precise her strikes were, landing not as techniques but as quick blasts of pure spirit energy. Since his short time on Eon, he’d never seen an adept wield pure spirit energy before. However, the lack of a distinct element didn’t seem to diminish her power at all... In fact, she seemed downright fearsome for a Spiriteka.

Back on the battlefield, the Black Queen had backed her opponent into a corner, forging hexagonal lines of spirit energy and cutting off Stonebreaker’s escape. Roy could see a look of desperation forming on the man’s face, the look of a man who was ready to do anything he needed to survive.

As Rin stepped forward, Stonebreaker summoned every bit of energy he had left, pouring it into a final technique as he slammed his palm into the ground.
