The seventh day.
Also the first day of Wang Yan's arena.
All around the arena, crowds had gathered early, waiting for the sun to rise.
The seven elders, the ten grand generals, Fang Jinchun, Yan Shilin, and everyone else had also arrived early at the high platform beside the arena, waiting for Wang Yan's defense.
As they looked at the empty arena, everyone was both excited and expectant, as if they were the ones defending the arena today, not Wang Yan.
Finally, the sun rose above the mountain ridge, revealing a faint gleam of light on the horizon.
This was the time for the defender to ascend to the arena.
Yet at this moment, the arena was empty.
However, everyone was somewhat accustomed to this; if Wang Yan had stood on the arena early, they would have found it strange.
Everyone looked towards the Golden Palace at the peak of the Flame Peak.
At this time, Liu Hua had already opened the palace doors and called inside, "Senior brother, it's time to defend the arena."
