Next to the white-robed old man who had suddenly appeared in the sky above the arena, another white-robed old man, as well as a beautiful woman with gentle facial features had both appeared by his sides barely a moment later, causing a single thought to appear in the minds of the disciples in the audience seats

''Dao Emperors! Those 3 Elders are all Dao Emperors!''

At the same time, although Shun Long and the others didn't recognize the old man at the center of those 3, with just a glance, Shun Long had immediately recognized the bald old man with an unkempt appearance who was standing by his side, as well as the beautiful middle-aged woman with those limpid black eyes.

This bald old man with a long white beard was the same person who had been responsible for Shun Long's fourth test when they entered the Holy sect more than 10 months ago, the white-robed Dao Emperor, Elder Cao Ling.

Just like the last time that Shun Long had seen him, Cao Ling's appearance hadn't changed in the slightest, not caring about his looks in the least, but Shun Long had a very deep image of this old man.

''Long-ge, what is master doing here? Could it be that she is responsible for this Martial Roll of Honor tournament?'' Liu Mei looked at the beautiful middle-aged woman in the sky in surprise, before she turned her attention towards Shun Long and asked in a curious voice.

The beautiful woman in white robes in the sky was really Liu Mei's master, Elder Xuan.

Hearing Liu Mei's question, Shun Long shook his head in confusion.

He hadn't expected for 3 inner court Elders to be present during this Martial Roll of Honor tournament either.

Although to Shun Long and the rest the Martial Roll of Honor tournament was considered important, in the eyes of these Elders, most likely, it shouldn't be worth them personally making a trip to oversee it unless there was another reason behind it.

The 3 Elders in the sky looked at the nearly 200.000 outer court disciples gathered that had filled the arena, before the old man at the center of the 3 nodded his head, as his calm voice entered the ears of every single outer court disciple in the crowd a moment later

''Most of you probably don't know me so let me introduce myself. My name is Sun Wen and I will be overseeing the Martial Roll of Honor tournament today.''

Hushed discussions instantly filled the arena within the next moment, as everyone stared at the white-robed old man in the sky.

''This is Elder Sun Wen, the head of the inner court Elders?''

''Ah! I have only heard of Elder Sun Wen's name but this is the first time that I am seeing him too. I have heard that he is the strongest of all the inner court Elders. Only our sect master and the Grand Elder are said to be stronger than Elder Sun!''

The number of outer court disciples who had personally seen Elder Sun Wen was very small, but almost everyone knew of this head Elder who usually managed most of the affairs of the sect, causing the eyes of the disciples of the crowd to light up with admiration and fervor.

Since the Grand Elder was in seclusion and the sect master was rarely within the sect, Elder Sun Wen was the Elder who usually managed most of the affairs.

Even Shun Long who hadn't heard almost anything about Elder Sun Wen had now learned from the discussions of the people around him, that this old man was actually the strongest of the inner court Elders in the Holy sect.

The white-robed Elder Xuan Jiao then waved her hand and the entire arena quickly fell silent for the second time.

Elder Sun Wen nodded his head, before he took out a pitch-black token from his spatial ring and held it in his right hand before his gaze fell on the arena below him.

As soon as the pitch-black-colored token appeared, Elder Sun infused his qi inside it before mysterious runes and patterns appeared on its surface.

At the same time that those runes appeared on the black token, similar runes seemed to have also covered the surface of the arena as well, before the entire arena started to violently tremble barely a moment later.

Shun Long's eyes widened in shock as he stared at the 8 huge platforms that were slowly emerging from the depths of the arena.

Even the trees in the forest region inside the arena seemed to have been pushed aside, as the huge platforms, each of whom was more than 100 meters wide appeared in the eyes of every single outer disciple.

Most outer disciples seemed to have already expected this scene and weren't too surprised by it, but there were still plenty of people like Shun Long's group who were stunned upon seeing this scene for the first time.

Elder Sun Wen smiled as he looked at the crowd and said calmly

''These 8 arenas will be used for your fights today. Your sect identifying token will guide you to the arena that you need to enter before every fight.

The rules of the Martial Roll of Honor rankings are fairly simple. To win a fight, all you have to do is make your opponent to admit defeat or render them unable to keep fighting. The outer court Elders will also be observing your fights so they will be able to judge the fight as well. As long as you win a single fight, your ranking will be displayed on your sect identifying token.

However, remember that you are not allowed to intentionally kill or cripple another disciple. If any of you break the rules, you will be lucky if you are simply expelled from the sect. At worst, you may even lose your life.''

Elder Sun's voice had turned extremely serious as he said the last sentence, making some disciples in the crowd shiver while most of them simply nodded their heads.
