Chapter 690: 690

Over the course of the week, the Arena slowly became the most popular spot to spend any time that wasn't needed to absorb materials or work on other skills. Most of the Disciples chose to meditate in the Arena, while the Elders and a few chosen Core Disciples got the premium spots in the alcoves along the wall to absorb the abundant energy in the room.

The reasons for this were twofold. Partially it was because the energy levels were so high that it was better for their cultivation to be in the Arena than their own dorms, but primarily, it was because the initiates were slowly finishing learning the basics of their first skill, and it was the perfect opportunity to establish the pecking order between the old and new Outer Sect Disciples.
