The seven competitors had gathered at the center of the arena, standing in a loose formation as Elder Baruun materialized before them. His imposing figure was clad in his sleeveless sect elder robes, his arms crossed, scars danced and told a story across his weathered skin. His Spirit Mystic-level pressure weighed down on the competitors for a brief moment before withdrawing, a silent reminder that none of them were above the rules.
Though, this casual act caused Elder Baruun to suddenly feel his battle senses tingling and skin feel prickly like he was staring at something more dangerous than even the most vicious of Abyssal Demons. His eyes darted to the nonchalant expression the Sect Master's Personal Disciple had maintained as he regarded the wave of spiritual pressure that had washed over him without care. Their eyes met and Elder Baruun felt a slight chill go down his spine as he peered into the swirling storms that were in Lassim's eyes.
