You expect the Arms Tournament to be exciting, and it is.

The Lacuer Armory Contest, also called the Lacuer Tournament of Arms, is an annual festival held in Lacuer's Colosseum, located within the walls of Lacuer Castle. During the tournament, warriors from around the world are tested in one-on-one matches, sometimes resulting in death although this is hardly encouraged.

Each contestant is forbidden to use their own weapons, items or armor, and instead must select a sponsor to supply these things for them. Between each match, contestants are granted permission to watch the other fights from the stadium seats.

The tournament of S.D. 366, organized partially in response to the Sorcery Globe problem and to show how effective the best weapons are, attracts many warriors, including Claude C. Kenny, Dias Flac, Jose Duran, Grondo Rawlos, Dol Adan, Emil Blegovich, Thomas Nelson, and Glorias. In the The Second Story manga, Ashton Anchors also participates in the contest, managing to reach the quarter finals.

In the first round, every contestant participated. Emil Blegovich wins the seventh match, while in the eighth match Dias Flac defeats Thomas Nelson. The second round starts off with Claude facing off and winning against Dol Adan. In the semifinal round, Claude defeats Jose Duran, while Dias easily defeats Grondo Rawlos. The final round spawns a tough fight between Claude and Dias, though ultimately the champion is the skilled Dias, with Claude taking second place.
