Seeing that Aizen was practicing his swordsmanship on the Plum Flower poles, Arcturus waited until he thought that the freshman had it down. Arcturus called out for Electra Demeter to join them, and the fencer quickly found her way up onto the elevated sparring ring. Her gunblade hung on a magnetic plate over the half-skirt covering her right hip, which complemented the half-cloak that hung knee-high from her left shoulder, integrated into a shoulder-length glove.

"Electra, Aizen here just about has the hang of the Plum Flower poles, with and without weapons. Since you're the only other sword-fighter here, how about the two of you spar? Standard gym rules for this match, so just use your pure sword and cloak moves.", Acturus suggested. Electra nodded, and spoke to Aizen.

"A cloak or cape can be used to distract, block, conceal, and entangle. Since it's your first time fighting with an opponent using one, I'll stick to my sword at first, then I'll use my cloak and show you my tricks once you have an idea of how I fight.", she informed the freshman, before drawing her sword and letting him unsheath his. Arcturus took the sheath, stepped back onto one of his glyphs to give the two more room to spar, and looked out at the other freshmen. Laden was doing well with Bjorn, reconfiguring the station to perform different exercises. Meanwhile, Felix had advanced to the intermediate parkour obstacles, surprising Arcturus. He looked to Aiden, and saw that Ricky had joined his other two training partners and that the trio of sophomores had formed a rough triangle formation around the freshman, with Kieran still refraining from using his Semblance, much to Arcturus' relief. He was also impressed that Aiden was managing to send a few balls back at the others. Looking back to Aizen and Electra, he saw now that they were warming up to each other in the battle, clashing more and more. The rest of the sophomores were still going about their business, though they sometimes stopped briefly to see how the freshmen were doing from a distance.
