Tieh Chen looked around him and realized that he did not know who this person was.
After all, he was forced to participate in the trial of the Prodigy Tournament. And Fengli City had no colonies—so there was no need to fight among themselves because there were no different factions inside the city. Every single participant was personally selected by the city. Hence, the other families did not have intel about their opponents at all.
Tieh Chen stepped into the ring as the energy shield covered up the ring, isolating the noises and energies from outside.
This was necessary to avoid meta-playing the ring. If an experienced warrior were to be allowed to instruct the participants and hint them about the enemies' weaknesses, it would not be a "competition" anymore.
Still, as the people from other families and the leaders of the four cities saw the name on the screen, they could not help but feel that something was off.
