"Welcome to Round Two of Stage Two. This round would be similar to Round One. Numbers would be drawn randomly by the computer, and the students with those numbers would fight each other. The winners proceed to the next round, while the losers, well, they become spectators. Anyway, let's start Round Two without any delay", the coordinator spoke, starting the new round.
Buzz!
Soon, two numbers popped up.
"It's 46 vs 97. Students who have these numbers come onto the grounds", the coordinator spoke.
The tokens given to the students in Round One were not taken back and remained with the students. These numbers are from that lot.
Number 97 was Erika's, and when her number came, she stood up and walked onto the grounds for the duel. The opposite one was not from one of the other three top academies.
