Let's opt NOT to get ourselves embarrassed in the town we just entered. Last time we tried to show off we had to be carted away to an infirmary. It'd put a but of a damper on things for our group if we got injured again. We can just watch and see whoever the 100th victim is.

After a short break, an earth pony mare steps into the ring with a foam battle-axe, and introduces herself as Juniper Berries of Coltswell.

Announcer: "Let's hear it for our new challenger, Juniper Berries!"

The crowd stomps enthusiastically as the two contestants get into position.

Announcer: "Are you ready? And… fight!"

Before Juniper Berries can so much as react, Gerwalta's weapon becomes a spiraling blur, and the foam battle-axe is sent flying out of the ring. Instantly disarmed, the pony finds herself at the mercy of the griffon's foam spear, and eagerly resigns.

Moonflower: "Whoa, cool!"

Announcer: "This is it, ponies! Gerwalta the Gladiator claims her hundredth victory in a row!"

The crowd cheers once more. Gerwalta and Juniper Berries bow to each other, then the mare picks up her weapon, and returns it to the rack.

Minuette: "Over already? I know it's all in good fun, but that Gerwalta looks a bit too strong for the league. Hmm… I wonder if there's anypony here who can shut down her winning streak."
