The Array Competition Begins

The energy within the Lightning Sect's Grand Coliseum shifted once more after Volten's announcement. The excitement from the Martial Comprehension Competition still hung in the air, but anticipation had already begun building for the next major event of the Elder Summit.

The stage rumbled to life. Lightning-etched formations flickered across the arena floor as the platform began reconfiguring itself. The smooth stone surface split into multiple hexagonal zones this time, each one pulsing faintly with pre-engraved a standard set of circuit lines—the foundation for the arrays that would soon be built on top and tested.

The coliseum stirred with renewed anticipation as the stands filled once more, the hum of conversation growing louder with each passing moment.

"Who's got the fastest setup time this year?"

"I heard one of them can activate an entire array with a single movement—no setup delay at all."
