For this part of the fights Jasmine had to scratch her head a little to figure out how to approach this. Normally she wasn't someone who would overvalue her own abilities and devalue those of others. Then again, she wasn't doing that now either. But... it was difficult to imagine how she was supposed to face a first and second year and not have a predetermined outcome floating over her head.
She had convinced herself that this was the whole point of it all -- to show the participants a dangerous type of strength which if not countered would grind them into dust and would under no circumstance relent. Honestly Jasmine held a great deal of respect for both Yuuto and Misako showing interest in this whole ordeal. Regardless of their reasons for doing so, wanting to face something that was a very real threat so they could learn in the process was beyond admirable. It was perhaps because of this respect and admiration that Jasmine didn't outright cancel their match. She couldn't very well shit on their efforts and feel good with herself about it.
The location picked for today's festivities was much alike the locations Jasmine had picked before. This time, however, downtown Tokyo wasn't desolate at all. Rather, it was a city which seemed to have just been abandoned, meaning literally everything you'd find out there in the real world existed here too. Working vehicles. Gun stores. A whole damn mall. Everything. Saikyuen, as always, spared no expense.
Jasmine was standing in the open, smack dab in the middle of a very large crossroads. Her hands were folded beneath her chest, head lowered, eyes closed. The wolf was mentally preparing for this fight, all while giving the two she was supposed to fight a little room to breathe and strategize. She hoped the two of them had actually gotten in contact with one another and discussed things prior to this little training exercise because she was not, under any circumstance, going to hold back when the time to fight comes around the corner.
She hefted a low breath as her mind tried to come up with ways the two students would try to tackle her. That, and, well... she was weighing her options in terms of countering those ways and then rattling them. There were many possibilities at her disposal, yet she quickly decided to wait it out. See what the two younger students would come up with. Misako had surprised her once before, after all. Who knows what the two of them could come up with.
Downtown Tokyo proper, just no people. Daytime. Whatever you think downtown Tokyo has, the arena probably has as well. Though do run it by me if you think it's a little too outlandish. Other than that, go HAM and have fun.
