DM-Ascendency

With the popularity of Liandri's tournaments rising ever higher, the Liandri Corporation was forced to increase the number of matches for the viewing public. However, an unfortunate side-effect to the increased number of matches was the increase of new fighters being inundated to the ranks of combatants, regardless of quality or experience. When a simple Nali ruin, buried deep in the mountains, was discovered, Liandri Corp. Snatched it up and converted it into an arena for testing potential competitors. With this arena in the tournament proper, competitors are tested before entering the main tournament - the winners ascend to the ranks of combatants, while the losers are separated and sloughed off.
