So Asura Sect had one lord(The leader of the most powerful sect is called lord-he had knowledge of entire demonic arts and had control over many demonic entities, he had the brute force to destroy an army of a million soldiers) and two vice leaders looking after those districts...
The lord looked after three districts which covered a very large area and had many natural resources... Similarly first vice leader looked after two districts which covered smaller areas and so on....
And 2nd vice leader looked after two districts with considerably smaller size but still had great geographical importance...
Many soldiers were stationed in each of the districts,highest no of soldiers were stationed in the three largest districts..Total no of soldiers under the Asura sects were thirty million who had knowledge about the demonic arts,now there were several ranks in the army as well highest being the captain who reported directly to the vice lords of their respective districts....And the most powerful man of the most powerful sect in the Murim is called the lord so there was only one lord in entire Murim world.

Elemental Martial Sect had control over one district with not much resources and they heavily relied on merchant sect....
Mystical martial Sect was once a very powerful sect but now they did not have control over any district or area they came under the authority of Asura Sect as Asura sect had defeated them in battle and took control over their districts and also took half of their scrolls and ancient martial items and the head of this Sect reported to the leader of Asura Sect,they did not destroy this sect because two districts of Asura Sect were occupied by people who practised mystical martial arts though they were weaker as compared to demonic arts,destroying the sect could have caused people to rebel so Asura sect decided,as long as the people follow the given orders the Mystical sect will not be annihilated completely..
Monk sect was an independent sect and had no interest in power or money they stayed at the outskirts of the Murim world and wrote martial scrolls and preached non-violence and only practiced the martial arts of matter manipulation....
And lastly Divine Sect which covered a small area of merely three alleys and a broken building where only five members stayed only the leader's family with a limited amount of food supply who had nowhere else to go and other members of this sect had either died of starvation or gone to some other sect...
