Perfect! Here's a full Chapter
The Elite Academy courtyard was a whirlwind of chaos. Holographic Corrupted Beasts erupted from digital summoning circles, snarling, claws flashing, teeth glinting. Students and their pets scattered, leaping into action, energy and magic flaring in every direction.
Levi crouched, Ragnar growling at his side. The little beast's violet veins pulsed brighter, syncing with his own heartbeat.

"Three giants, all high-threat status… alright, Ragnar, let's do this," Levi muttered.
Ragnar lunged, slashing with claws that left violet streaks in the air. The beasts roared, circling, testing him. Levi's instincts kicked in—sidestep, counter, slash every move honed from battles past.

A shadow flickered near one of the summoning circles, and Levi's attention shifted. There she was the girl from the courtyard, the one with silver hair cascading down her shoulders, eyes sharp as knives. Her pet, a sleek black dragon-like beast, mirrored her every graceful motion.
Their eyes met.
"Oh!" she gasped, stepping back too quickly and colliding into Levi. Ragnar yipped, hopping between them. Both froze, hearts racing.
"I—I'm so sorry!" she stammered, cheeks flushing a bright crimson.
"N-no, my fault!" Levi blurted, his own face burning. He stumbled slightly, nearly dropping Ragnar.

Ragnar growled, nudging them apart just enough to give them space. Levi cleared his throat, trying to focus, but he couldn't help sneaking another glance at her. The girl, equally flustered, smoothed her hair and avoided his gaze.

Before anything else could happen, a massive Corrupted Beast roared into the simulation, shaking the ground. Levi and the girl exchanged a quick nod, silently agreeing to team up.
Ragnar darted forward, claws slashing with precise coordination. The girl's pet unleashed a spiral of black energy, striking the beast from above. Together, Levi and his new partner synchronized attacks, dodges, and counters, moving like a well-oiled team despite the embarrassing collision moments ago.

As the beast fell, Levi's chest heaved, adrenaline mixing with lingering embarrassment. The silver-haired girl looked at him, eyes sparkling with both challenge and amusement.
"Well… not bad," she said softly, smirking despite her blush. "Maybe you're more than just talk."
Levi swallowed hard. "T-thanks… you're… um… amazing too."

The courtyard erupted in cheers as the remaining digital beasts vanished. Levi exhaled, looking at Ragnar, then back at her. The first trial was over but the sparks between them, both flirty and chaotic, had just begun.
