Zhang Chengyue saw the reaction of the disciples and frowned even more deeply. He took another look at the paper in his hand to confirm that he hadn't read it wrong, then lightly "hmm" sounded, echoing throughout the square, as if thunder was striking beside everyone's ears. The entire square immediately quieted down.
Zhang Chengyue continued, "The rules of the challenge competition are the same as before. If it ends in a draw within the time of three incense sticks, the challenger wins. The list of the first tier commoners is announced here. The lists of other tiers will be announced after the first tier commoners' competition is over. Next, please come on stage."
Having said that, Zhang Chengyue floated off the stage and walked toward the reed-mat shelter. Then five slightly older disciples, with graceful figures, leapt onto the arena. They must be second-tier disciples waiting for the challenge.
