At the referee's signal, Serena was the first to act.
She raised one hand, her expression calm, and Starweaver materialized behind her, and a few seconds later, the Elemental Guardian appeared as well.
She limited herself to only summoning two contracts rather than the full three.
Because she didn't need a third.
Across from them, Obsidian Moon Valley unleashed everything they had.
All three of their second-year students summoned a maximum three contracts—nine spiritual creatures in total. Beasts of varying attributes and combat styles filled the field. A jagged-armor mantis with reflective plating, a mist-emitting spinal crawler, and even a rare twin-casting fox spirit with duplication ability were among them.
Dark Moon stuck with their routine, summoning only two contracts per person. Six.
Only six.
