Chapter 105 Preliminary Round
Leaving their questions behind, they arrived at the Preliminary Sparring Match arena.
Given its location in the Southwest, the Seonpung Unit, one of the Eight Guard Units, should have been managing it. Yet, for some reason, the Martial Robes of the martial artists at the reception desk were Black, not the purple of the Seonpung Unit.
Namgung-woo briefly checked the surrounding geography again, wondering if they had come to the wrong arena, but it was exactly as he had been told.
“Excuse me, may I ask a question?”
Namgung-woo addressed a Martial Alliance Martial Artist. The martial artist, who had been reviewing a roster document, replied without even lifting his head.
“Yes, yes, this is indeed the Southwest Preliminary Round arena. Just find your name here and… Gasp!”
The martial artist, who had casually pushed forward the roster document he was looking at and then lifted his head, gasped and held his breath as if he had seen something he shouldn’t have.
He had been answering the same question mechanically, without much thought, due to the sheer number of times he’d heard it. How he wished he could take those words back.
Truth be told, there hadn’t been any issues until now. Being a direct member of the Martial Alliance placed him in a highly respected position within the Righteous Faction Martial World, and his own sect/school was a reputable one, second to none.
However, standing before the name of the Commander of the Azure Sky Unit, who had recently shaken the Righteous Faction Martial World, his background was as fragile as a thatched house in a typhoon. And that wasn’t all. The daughters of the Hebei Peng Clan and the Zhuge Clan were accompanying him!
