Chapter 116

Upon entering Tianding Martial Arts Hall, Chen Xuan realized the venue was exceptionally spacious, easily capable of accommodating over a thousand people. Because it was located near the suburbs where land prices were relatively low, the master-disciple duo of Wuding and Yutian had been able to expand the hall into a grand, impressive establishment. For this tournament, seventeen major martial arts halls from Tianhai City, Linyun City, and Jiangfeng City had sent a total of seven or eight hundred martial artists, excluding those from smaller, insignificant schools. More than a hundred young disciples had signed up to compete, and they would follow the traditional rules established in previous years to determine the final champion. These young martial artists were the elite among their peers, mostly between eighteen and twenty-five years old. The rules prohibited anyone who had reached the Dark Force level from participating, and those who had achieved such mastery were typically at least twenty-five. Naturally, there were some martial artists over thirty who were still at the Vivid Force level, but they were generally too embarrassed to sign up. Most of the younger disciples hadn’t even reached the Vivid Force level and were only there to cheer for their seniors.
