A massive arena had been erected around the Blood Stele, with the stele itself as the centerpiece.
The area around the arena was now teeming with people, filling the entire temporary town. It wasn't just traveling merchants and common folk; many powerful figures from various factions had also arrived.
Dozens of high platforms stood in various positions around the arena.
Each platform served as a viewing area for the powerful figures of a particular faction.
By now, powerful figures had already arrived early on some of the platforms...
"Quick, look! That's the Second Prince of the Great Wu Empire, Wu Zhiqiu. The Great Wu Empire sent many of its civil and military officials, too."
Someone pointed at a platform and murmured.
Another person said, "Over there are the Third Princess and Prince Lieye of the Nanye Dynasty. They've traveled a great distance to spectate."
"What about the Seven Great Flame Countries? Did any of the Flame Kings come?" someone else asked softly.
