To avoid the crowd, Elder Zhou took Han Cai inside the arena from the back of the mountain. Despite this, Han Cai was still noticed by many disciples. He walked in the center with Elder Zhou in front, surrounded by yellow-robed disciples of the Zhou faction. He appeared as an unreachable immortal child, walking around protected by bodyguards. The disciples began whispering, "So this is Han Cai." Elder Zhou had bet a lot on this "golden goose" of his, so he didn't want any mishaps to happen. He had brought yellow-robed disciples of the Zhou faction to ensure peace.
Nothing happened, and they reached the arena peacefully. Elder Zhou asked all yellow-robed disciples to go to the arena and sit with other outer sect disciples. Kong Dandan, who was also going to participate in the common faction, went towards the common faction disciples.
Elder Zhou took Han Cai to the elder section, where many elders were sitting.
The arena was quite large, and there were ten fighting platforms set up inside. So, ten consecutive battles could commence at once.
The seating arrangement in the arena was divided into four parts:
the south of the arena was for the elders of the outer sect,
the north was for the inner sect elders and sect master, the east was for outer sect disciples, and the west was for inner sect disciples.
Outer sect disciples were dressed in yellow and gray, while inner sect disciples were dressed in red and blue.
When the elder and Han Cai entered the section, many elders noticed them. They all looked at Han Cai, but no one said anything. Elder Miao of the discipline hall was sitting in the center of all the elders, with some other elders of the discipline hall sitting around him.
When elder Miao saw elder Zhou and Han Cai, he stood up and signaled for Elder Zhou to come and sit on a chair beside him. Elder Zhou nodded and walked to the center of all the elders, where Elder Miao was sitting, and Han Cai followed him quietly.
When they reached Elder Miao's side, Elder Zhou greeted him, then pointed towards Han Cai and said, "Elder, this is Han Cai, a disciple of my Zhou faction."
Han Cai came forward and bowed, "Greetings, Elder Miao."
Elder Miao had noticed Han Cai entering the arena long ago.
He smiled, and his eyes glowed as he said, "Come, come, sit beside me. I have heard a lot about you."
Han Cai nodded and sat beside Elder Miao, and Elder Zhou sat beside Han Cai. Most elders noticed how Elder Miao asked Han Cai to sit beside him. This was a bit out of the norm, many elders brought their faction's disciples for this tournament, but all the disciples were standing behind the sitting elders. No disciple was sitting beside any elder. These disciples standing behind the elders of their respective factions, were going to participate in the tournament
Even Elder Ji, sitting a little bit far from them, and Fan Zixin, standing behind him, also noticed Han Cai. To elder Ji, Han Cai indeed looked very special, but he consoled himself, as he had the outer sect hall now, so he was not much at a loss. This time, female outer sect elders were present too. Some of them brought female disciples of their factions. Han Cai thought male to female ratio in the sect was despairingly low. No wonder all the disciples, be it a common faction or special faction, were always thirsty.
. Slowly, the arena was filled on all sides. All outer sect elders, inner sect elders, outer sect, and inner sect disciples were present. The last to arrive was the sect master. Han Cai had never seen a sect master before.
