The old monk addressed the crowd, which consisted of both martial artists and curious common people. "Welcome to the triennial Hero Assembly. As many of you know, Wankong Temple has always remained a neutral party in the martial arts sector, which is why we have presided over the previous Hero Assemblies. This year, we are honored to preside over the assembly again."
"That must be the Buddhist abbot of Wankong Temple," Mo Xian whispered to Wang Jingyuan. "I've heard that Wankong Temple has managed to stay out of martial arts conflicts for at least a century."
