The Bai Clan participants numbered around 40.
But that was only for those going through the Bai Clan's selection. Others, like Bai Xueqing, decided to join through their respective sects.
Out of those 40, nearly 20 openly opposed Bai Zihan and were even ready to fight him.
Among them, only three were in the Nascent Soul Realm, while the rest were in the Golden Core Stage.
However, they didn't think that Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were necessary to beat down Bai Zihan, who was only at the Golden Core Stage.
Even if the rumors were true—that he had gained mastery over the Heaven-Grade Technique, Nine Shadows Flowing Light Sword—they believed that with their numbers, it was impossible for them to lose.
The others chose not to get involved, either because they didn't think it was necessary or because they didn't want to be caught up in the clan's politics.
"Then, are you all ready? Begin!"
Bai Feng announced.
