Everyone had arrived, and the banquet began. The first table was specially reserved for the three major gang leaders, while the seating for the rest of the attendees was arranged according to the strength of their gangs. Song Yun was surprised to find himself assigned to the third table, facing none other than the leader of the Mingjin Gang.
This arrangement certainly cut down on a lot of trouble, saving people from looking down on each other based on gang size—with larger gangs despising mid-sized ones and mid-sized gangs looking down on smaller ones. It would have been chaotic, as everyone in this mix is after respect. If you disdain me, I'll disdain you, and no fighting would be quite the miracle.
