    To maintain order and prevent disruptions, the martial arts alliance set up an enforcement team.Amotion broke out at the entrance gate. The enforcement team had stopped a group of young men and women.


    “What’s going on here? Why won’t let us in?” one of them protested. you“The arean is already full. You should head back,” the enforcement team captain replied bluntly.


    “Head back? Then, howe they could get in?” A girl with a ponytail asked, looking annoyed. She pointed to the group that had just entered.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    “They’re from the Crimson Cloud, a prestigious guild in the Balerno martial world. You aren’t on the same level,”the captain retorted coldly.


    “Hey, don’t look down on us! What’s so good about Crimson Cloud anyway? We’re from the Moonlight Reverence, and we’re just as good!” she argued.


    “That’s right! Why is Crimson Cloud allowed in, but we’re not? That’s prejudice!” the others chimed in..


    “Moonlight Reverence? Never heard of it. I don’t know what obscure guild you belong to, but please go and don’t block the entrance.” The captain became impatient.

    “You… you’ve gone too far!” the girl with the ponytail shouted, her face red with anger.She had traveled so far just to see theyoung grandmaster’s skills. Being denied entry was beyond her expectations.


    “Hey! Show some respect!”


    A young man in green clothing approached them. He said, “I’m Toddy Yarnes, the senior disciple of the Moonlight Reverence. I’m destined to be a grandmaster!


    “I warn you, let us in now. Or you’ll regret it when I be famous!”


    “A grandmaster?” The captain sneered. He pped Toddy in the face, causing him to fall to the ground.The captain scoffed, “Fuck! If you can be a grandmaster, then I must be an ultimate grandmaster!”
