Various thoughts occurred in the minds of the audience, but no one complained outwardly as Azzy mentioned that this decision was taken by the Clan Head.
As for the participants, they were informed beforehand. So, they stayed calm and composed.
But, the surprise is yet to come.
Azzy continued to speak, "During the selection process, when we met the kids early in the morning and asked them to pick their choices, some of them were quite interested in getting teachings directly from their clan leaders and pavilion masters. Hence, I request, all pavilion masters and sub-clan leaders to participate in this special event to have a friendly spar against each other, giving the future generation a memorable lesson to remember as well as reassuring our villagers that the clan is still as strong as ever. Who knows some spectators could even draw inspiration from these spars to choose their path."
