Chapter 367 Face to Face
The King's demeanor turned more business-like as he prepared to move the ceremony forward. "But with all of that out of the way, let's get down to the first portion of today's process."
The crowd hushed, anticipation building as they listened intently.
"As you all know and as I stated in the initial announcement, we will be having the first-ever 50 on 50 matchup, designed to critically attack the thought process and test the survival of everyone, and pit enemies as allies and allies as enemies."
The King paused for a moment, letting the gravity of his words sink in. "The first part in making this process happen is to begin the draw selection."
He gestured towards a large, ornate bowl filled with numbered balls ranging from 1 to 100, placed centrally on the stage for all to see.
"We will have each participant come up and draw a lottery number from 1-100."
The participants looked around at each other, a mix of nerves and excitement palpable in the air.
"After everyone has drawn a number, we will release a specific gas into the air that will reveal their color."
The King continued, revealing the team identities. "The royal Prestige will be team purple, and the Burning Suns will be team Orange."
The King's smile broadened, adding a layer of anticipation to the already charged atmosphere. "Before we get started, while all fifty will be on a team, teams will be further broken up into teams of five. Each team will have their own missions that they need to accomplish within the first 24 hours of the Arena."
"I see, very well, carry on and move forward," the king responded with a nod, signaling Ty to proceed.
As Ty expressed his confusion about where to proceed, the King gave a chuckle that echoed slightly in the vast space. "Of course," he said, clapping his hands together. In response to his gesture, a whirlwind of void colors emerged in front of Ty, coalescing into a large golden stand. Around it, dozens of balls began spinning endlessly, creating a mesmerizing display.
Ty noticed an opening on the stand, and the King nodded encouragingly. "Go ahead and place your hand in there, and a ball with a number on it will emerge."
With a nod, Ty extended his arm towards the golden stand. As his hand made contact, the sphere lit up in a dazzling rainbow of colors. Suddenly, Ty felt a sharp, wincing pain in his arm as an object slammed into it.
Grimacing, Ty withdrew his arm and presented it to the King, revealing a white sphere emblazoned with the number 7.
Moments later, the ball transformed dramatically. It turned and exploded into a cloud of purple mist that enveloped Ty completely. As the purple haze settled, it became clear that Ty's attire had changed. He was now dressed in a Purple Gi, adorned with black lines that traced elegantly around it, complemented by trousers and thick black boots of the same color scheme.
Ty inspected his new attire with a mixture of confusion and curiosity. "What happened to my old clothes?" he inquired, looking down at the striking purple Gi that had replaced his previous garments.
The King chuckled lightly, a gleam of amusement in his eyes. "Don't worry, you won't be seeing them again unless you make it to the wish ceremony. But I do hope you the best," he said, his tone shifting slightly to a more somber note.
"Though you may have been the strongest all those years ago, I don't know how you managed to stay alive all this time... but regardless, there are many stronger than you now, and they will for sure kill you."
The King paused, his gaze hardening. "This way, you will go out building the greatest Kingdom ever even more, and the last traces of the Black Flames finally die."
