Entering The Arena, Peach and Stella will find the Swordfighter Sparkla who questions who Peach is in the outfit while recognizing Stella. Before he warns Peach and Stella about the place, the two stairs disappear and the [[King Knight]] shows up and starts the battle against Swordfighter Peach. In the first phase, the King Knight will approach Peach and swing his sword. Peach can dodge his attack and will automatically stomp on him putting him in a stunned state. Peach must take this opportunity to hit him repeatedly, resulting him to smash against the wall, then sliding down the wall. In the final phase, he will use his sword to stab the floor, causing a wave that Peach must dodge. He will also prepare to ram into Peach with his sword, which can be indicated with the purple mist on the floor; Peach can evade his attack repeatedly. At some point, he will perform a surprise attack depending on where he rammed from (if he rammed from the left, he will disappear then appear quickly to the right to ram into Peach, vice versa); Peach can dodge the attack and she will stomp on him, allowing her to defeat him. Upon his defeat, he will slide from the wall falling off-screen. The stairs reappear, the Swordfighter Sparkla is free and the Sparkle Gem is obtained.
