Putting aside the lively bustle of the main hall, Li Dai and Old Man Han arrived at the back hall. The palpable atmosphere of mutual hatred here immediately made Li Dai realize that, just like her, these people were here for a life-or-death battle. Li Dai thought to themselves that if not for the guards stationed around these ash-gray, spacious walls, these people probably would have already started fighting right here.
Some of these mutually hostile opponents had deliberately arranged to meet here, while others had simply come to see the spectacle of the Sixteen Continents Grand Tournament and happened to run into their mortal enemies, wanting to finish each other off once and for all. Since random violence was prohibited inside the capital city, this was the only place left.
As for those who deliberately came to this place to settle scores, they had other reasons. They wanted their opponents dead and had reached an irreconcilable impasse, but besides themselves, they also had family and friends. They wanted the feud to remain strictly their own affair without implicating their loved ones, which was why they came to the Arena of Execution in the Holy Capital to settle their grievances.
