The Dragon and Phoenix Gathering
The heart of the world's righteous factions, where the leaders of the Nine Great Sects and Five Great Families gather to decide the affairs of the Jianghu.
This 'Dragon and Phoenix Gathering' is an official stage for the world's finest, hosted by the Murim Alliance to discover and unite the next generation of righteous leaders in response to signs of the Demonic Cult's resurgence.
All roads in the world lead to Mount Song. In front of the Murim Alliance's Hall of Governance, the massive martial arena situated higher than the clouds vibrated with an overwhelming aura, as if the very essence of the righteous factions had been gathered there. The 'Dragon and Phoenix Gathering' held here today was both a gateway for the young masters who would hold the future hegemony of the Jianghu and the first arrow fired by the righteous factions toward the Demonic Cult.
While the Alliance Leader and the elders of the righteous factions watched, Paeng Ho walked out to the center of the arena, carrying a massive saber slanting across his shoulder. The stone floor seemed to groan under the weight of his every step.
It's not like the Murim Alliance is picking a new leader; are we just here to see some tricks from young punks? Hmph, I'll make my saber ring loud enough for the Alliance Leader to hear!
Just as a silence settled after that arrogant shout, Un-gyeom, dressed in a deep navy Taoist robe, landed silently on the arena as if he had stepped through the air itself.
On the other side of the arena, Moyong Seol, who was waving a fan under the shade of a plum blossom tree, surveyed the battlefield with cold eyes. Her calculated gaze was already analyzing Paeng Ho's breathing and Un-gyeom's footwork.
