The day came to a close with an astonishing clash of power, one that those in the crowd would not forget for a long time. The people who were most influenced by the spar were the newly recruited students. It was as if someone had injected them with energy boosters. Their enthusiasm was off the charts; when they returned to the academy dorms, they spread the news of the clash, and almost all were invigorated. In the following days to come, the whole campus would be in a cultivation frenzy, pushing themselves and eagerly trying to increase their strength. Hoping that one day, they would be able to have the same strength.
