(Raja Sect's HQ)
After Giran had told his plan to the higher-ups of the Sect, they all set out to make the necessary preparations. And so most of the inner and outer disciples were left without anyone to train them. They started to fight against each other, or simply follow the steps described in the many books that the new Treasure Elder had distributed.
The Inner Court's arena had become the place where most of the disciples of the sect would come to. Nearly everyone was there, to beat the hell out of each other in the name of training or merely observe others.
One such observer was sitting by himself , the stone stairs around him being completely empty. No one wanted to sit behind that one person, except some inner disciples who had rarely ever saw the lower disciples. They didn't know who this person was, and so they sat besides him.
