Tessa and Lina locked eyes as the tension between them increased.
"Students! Watch carefully, because trust me, an epic battle is about to go down!"
The students cheered loudly in response to the announcer's words.
Tessa and Lina continued staring at each other intensely. It was clear that both of them had understood what was going on.

Some of the others were also complaining to themselves about not being the ones among their teammates suitable for this stage.
