The next day.

The mud around the volcanic river had already become soft and wet due to the heavy downpour of rain.

The trees on the other mountain were swaying slowly in the chilling wind.

Inside the forest, there was a large gray tent set up on an empty ground between the trees.

Several people wearing tight white clothes were adding wood into the campfire at the side and were rotating a metal skewer over the fire carefully. The fragrance of meat being roasted permeated the air.

It was still early in the morning during sunrise. White mist was all around the surroundings.

The opening of the tent was opened by an old man that had a long, white hair and had a cold expression on his face.

He wore white clothes befitting that of a swordsman with a short black dagger tied to his belt.

Two of the people beside the campfire immediately approached the old man.

"Elder Gill, we lost another member of our family yesterday," the woman on the left reported.

"When did it happen?" Gill narrowed his eyes.

"I have already sent out our sentries. Lance went to the volcanic river several days ago but never came back," the woman immediately replied.

"The volcanic river..." Gill's expression turned serious. Before he could say anything else, he detected movements from the shrubs and bushes in front of him.

A man adorned with a red leather armor stepped out of it with a silver scimitar in his hand.

The man had a blank expression on his face.

"You are of the Spenders', right? We need to decide on who to send to the garden. My master wants to see you at the peak of the mountain before noon." The man was glancing around.

Elder Gill pursed his lips; he was about to say something.

However, he was stopped by two other elders who had just stepped out of the tent.

Gill's face turned red and he started panting out of complete rage.

The people nearby the campfire were not satisfied with the way the elders were dealing with the situation, and they looked a tad nervous.

One of the elders calmed down and stepped forward.

"Please tell master Loffy that we will be there on time," he replied with a loud voice.

"Good. It seems your eyes haven't been clouded by fury yet." The man nodded slightly. "I will bring your message to master Loffy." He turned around, and jumping into the shrubs and bushes, he disappeared.

*BAM*

A deep crevice appeared on the empty ground beside the tent. It had been caused by an explosion of pure energy.

Elder Gill then lowered his hand. He was absolutely infuriated that he had to find a way to vent out his rage.

"They have already obtained a slot and they want to take other as well! These bastards..."

"Our opponent is the firstborn heir of the Blue Eagle Nest...They are far more powerful than us..." The elder beside him on the left side sighed with mixed emotions. "In the last battle, we lost several of our family members, two of whom are elders, and many were injured...We are the weakest of the three families now..."

"Master Karl is right. We need to calm down. They will try to annihilate our entire family if anything were to happen during the meeting. Master Kita is still inside the garden, so we still have hope." The elder on the right side nodded slightly.
