章 154: The first round.

Li Jun was ready before the sun rose. He had received a message during the night, a note from his master that said it was his turn to take part in the tournament. Most disciples had to check the fight schedule that was written on parchment and hung up on a board alongside requests that the disciples could fulfill for spirit stones. 

The disciples who had their own masters would be notified of their fights ahead of time. They didn't have to worry about checking a schedule, so they were free to practice in peace until it was time. 

Li Jun went over his heaven-splitting sword art until he felt that he was sufficiently warmed up. He didn't intend to use his sword intent, and now that he had reached the seventh stage of body refining, he was among the top twenty percent of outer court disciples already. The chances of him fighting someone strong in the first round were quite slim.
