"Young Master Baydor, I've brought big news from the Fish-men Domain's Registration Hall!"
A half-naked, dopey, Catfish-headed fish-man with long facial barbels suddenly rushed into the seamount garden, attracting everyone's attention.
At the same time, several dozen more fish-men intruded the private space shortly after with disappointed expressions. Evidently, they had been competing to deliver news to Young Master Baydor but lost the race.
Without any surprise, the sudden entrance of a large group of uninvited guests displeased the Elite Disciples present.
However, they all suppressed their urges to voice their dissatisfaction because the new arrivals were followers of Young Master Baydor. Even if they were lower-ranking disciples in the Outer Palace, they were still backed by a Noble Being. That in itself was a form of status.
