Regarding this special situation, the Ancestral Court issued a strict order, commanding that all clansmen of any identity with a Cultivation base below the Seventh Stage must evacuate the Ancestral Court. They could camp outside and watch the competition for the martial contest through the projection magic of the Crystal Clan.
This decree took three days to fully implement, indeed, it greatly alleviated the previously crowded conditions inside the Ancestral Court. However, even then, the number of people in the Ancestral Court was still much more than usual, it was still bustling. The security patrols of the Ancestral Court began to walk the streets, strictly punishing any discovered breaches of regulations and conflicts, no matter the rank of those involved.
Near the edge of the Ancestral Court, inside a small tavern, two figures clad in large cloaks were sitting opposite each other.
On the table were several small dishes, along with two mugs of beer.
