The stadium is simply gargantuan. First thing to behold is the private lodges of the emperor and the most prominent noble families and sects. Then, a whole chunks of the stands are dedicated to the various participating towns, with preparation rooms for last minute practice as well as waiting rooms, cutting the fighters from contact from their sect and the other teams alltogether. Last, the stands themself, allowing the layman to come enjoy his fair share of the entertainment the tournament will surely provide.

<span class="mu-s">I'll do you even better : here's your reward for that task : not giving you anything.</span>

Sin Din picked some... Mist blown by wind stallion? A great suit to her current spirit, that will compliment her Windy Cavalier Halberd's style as well as her mobility.
Something tingle your nose. The scent... Yes. It smells a bit like Luo Bin's Qi, the Highwayman associated with the Elusive Freemen.
Maybe the girl would benefit from their unique techniques?
Meanwhile, Yi Norm picked some Jade Monkey Bostaff Expert - seems that this single spirit is as strong as your current Horse Spirit, in addition to be an incredible match to him and his style. Truly, they both had outstanding luck in their draw of the sect's bounded beast coffers.
You perform the ritual, which takes you what remains of the morning.
Getting out of the closed room, your citymates are trickling in the stadium. Venerable Stable Lotus even hired a third-stage young Immortal Chief food cart to ensure all of you are well-fed before the incoming fights. The seller even has shrimp-spring rolls - which taste oddly metallic and hard to chew until you get it's not shrimp spring-rolls.
