After the City Lord announced the end of the duels along with the results, everyone left the arena to prepare for the next day.
The night passed quickly and it was now time for the group battles.
After all of the Sects gathered in the arena did the City Lord finally announce the beginning of the Group Battles.
"Welcome back everyone to the second stage of the Inter-Sect Tournament! We have now moved on from the Duels to the Group Battles! First, let me announce the rules of the Group Battles. Just like the duels, anything goes as long as you don't kill your opponent, but we have some extra rules this time around. First, each Sect will only be able to form one group containing 5 people. I know that each Sect has 15 people participating, but this is non-negotiable. Each group will have to appoint someone as Captain and the Captain will be in charge of directing the battle."
