Phase 2

The sun was shining brightly in the Los Angeles sky as the Staples Center, one of the city's largest and most iconic stadiums, filled with anticipation.

The stands were already starting to fill up with excited fans, and the atmosphere was electric as everyone was eager to witness several of the tournament's best archers face off in Stage 2.

Inside the stadium, the halls were packed with competitors, their teams and families, all preparing for the competition to come.

Klaus walked through the crowd, being recognized by some fans who greeted him enthusiastically. He, however, did not wish to be the center of attention this time. Today, he was just an eager spectator, curious to see how Max, Emma, Lara and Andrew would fare.
