At the Snow Sword Sect, the bronze bell was used to summon all disciples of the sect. There were a total of five strikes on the bronze bell, corresponding to five levels of urgency. One strike was a one-star emergency, and five strikes represented a five-star emergency. A five-star emergency would never be sounded unless it was a matter of life and death, threatening the survival of the sect.
Three strikes, however, could only be considered moderate. Still, the sect had a rule: as long as disciples were still within the sect grounds, they were required to appear once the bell rang. Those who failed to show up would face severe punishment, and repeated absences could even lead to expulsion from the sect. Elders conducted random investigations each time, and any disciples found skipping would be directly arrested.
To avoid trouble, Liu Shuying prepared to head to the training grounds to see what was going on.
