They reached the sect's courtyard soon enough, where a few servant disciples were guarding the gate.
The disciples here were not Inner or Outer disciples of the sect but instead servants that they had recruited from the surrounding empires.
Shen Yuan and the others showed their identity token before entering inside, where the Grand Elder was waiting for them.
As soon as she saw the group entering, she hurriedly made her way towards them and bowed towards Shen Yuxin. "Senior Yuxin, I was waiting for you. Now that you are here, we can discuss the details of the competition."
Shen Yuxin calmly nodded her head. "Bring all the disciples who will be participating in the main hall; we will discuss further there."
Shen Yuan and the others followed her inside the main hall of the courtyard.
Once inside, Shen Yuxin took the main seat at the rectangular table while Shen Yuan and Bing Rong sat on both sides of her. Wan Ling moved beside Shen Yuan.
