The illusion field shattered violently beneath the impact of sovereign flame.
Mist exploded outward in fading strands of shadow. False terrain collapsed like broken mirrors dissolving into dust. The warped echoes that had twisted the battlefield moments earlier vanished one by one, allowing reality to settle back into place with almost painful clarity.
For the first time since the match began, the crowd could finally see the arena properly again.
Thousands of spectators exhaled at once.
The release of tension spread through the colossal stadium like a wave.
Some laughed nervously.
Others wiped sweat from their foreheads, only now realizing how tightly their bodies had remained locked during Shadowfen's illusion assault.
"He broke the domain field…"
"That fire actually purified the mental interference…"
"How is Skygate still coordinating after that?"
The whispers multiplied rapidly across the audience.
