The quarterfinals began.
Lu Yuan took a look at his opponent, Ivan, a hulking man who stood two meters tall.
He was covered in thick hair, with bulging muscles—a brawny brute through and through.
Once the two of them appeared in the arena,
the contrast was stark. Lu Yuan, small in stature, wore a calm, nonchalant expression.
