The Outer Court Rankings VII: One Against Three?

================================

"Now that everyone is ready. Let the battle...begin!"

A fight did not break out immediately like the previous time. Instead, the disciples on the ring were observing each other.

Arthur shrugged and decided to break the silence.

"So who is going first?"

The weaker ones tensed their muscles when he spoke and quickly got into a fighting stance.

Meanwhile, the three disciples that were ranked in the top thirty were no longer being subtle about their scrutinizing gaze.

Arthur looked at them and smiled, "Come on now, is there any need to continue pretending? I know you are out to get me, and so am I."

"You guys can join in on the fun between me and these three..." Arthur looked at the others as he pointed his fingers at those three disciples.

"...or you can fight your own battle and hope to last long, the choice is yours."

Arthur's words were heard by the spectators as he spoke a bit loudly.
