The car hadn't yet entered Cangming County, but those inside were already saturated by the atmosphere of the road.
The closer they got to Cangming County, the more martial artists they saw proceeding ahead.
They carried swords, spears, bows, and arrows without any restraint, some wearing sect apparel, others in uniform family garb.
Each team consisted of six people.
From the looks of it, everyone had received the same invitation.
Within each team, there were martial artists of various ranks.
To Xia Liu's surprise,
he had overestimated the strength of these families and sects.
Many teams didn't even have a single Heaven-Rank martial artist, and some only had Mid-Level Earth-Rank warriors.
Throughout his journey, he hadn't encountered any Earth-Rank High-Level martial artists.
This was truly unexpected.
However, after giving it some thought, it was probably due to preconceived notions.
