Alex flew along with his aunt to the outside of the city and went to one of the plateaus in the east.
He landed at the edge and saw over a thousand different disciples there ready to train.
As soon as Liz landed on the plateau, every single one of them greeted her. After all, she was the highest-ranked disciple of the sect and everyone looked up to her.
They all returned to their task, and as soon as the sun was up, they brought out a bunch of staff and before Alex's eyes, started striking at each other.
They stayed in pairs and while one of them hit the other, the other one took the attack without flinching. Alex could see the signs of pain on their face as most of the ones being hit took the swing to their body while biting on their own lips.
"What… are they doing exactly?" Alex asked. "Trying to hurt themselves?"
"Have you never seen someone cultivate their body? Keep watching," she said.
