"Hahaha! Isn't this an exciting day today?"
A deep voice asked a question to its audience. It carried with it a certain authority that couldn't be challenged by any participants in the event.
"Audience members as well as participants from all five academies. Welcome! I'm Rufus Rodriguez, and I would like to share a few things with you before we proceed with the event."
Rufus Rodriguez greeted his audience with a smile on his face and excitement in his voice. This Grandmaster Ranker looked to be in his early 30s. He was wearing typical adventurer clothing as if he was ready to fight anyone. The smile on his face was contagious and subtly forced everyone who looked at him to smile with him.
This A-rank entity had served as vice-principal of Lionhearts Adventurers' Academy. But he was relieved of those duties when he made substantial progress on his ranking journey.
