"At last… the awaited morning has arrived," I whispered as I rubbed my eyes.
I washed my face, ate breakfast, then let out a slow breath before focusing my energy.
My accumulation was at its peak.
Everything was prepared for what was coming.
The previous days had been filled with training, planning, and discovering new things…
Yet none of that was enough to truly reassure me.
I quickly pushed those thoughts away, then put on my clothes.
I pulled out the teleportation stone from my hand, closed my eyes, and whispered the destination within my mind.
Suddenly—
I was transported… to the heart of the wilderness.
The moment I opened my eyes, they widened in shock.
"What an overwhelming presence…" I murmured.
In the vast region between Sunset City and Sunrise City…
An enormous crowd of people and warriors had gathered together.
I never imagined the number would be this absurd.
Thousands upon thousands of people…
Just to watch the opening of the combat tournament.
