1 p.m, fifteen minutes in, the venue for the Seven Heroes Conference was already bustling with a sea of people.
At that time, various sects had already taken their places as arranged by the Cao Gang.
Sects like the Salt Gang, Tea Gang, Zhongyi Sect, Xingyi Sect, and Heroic Gate, ranking among the "Seven Heroes," were supposed to occupy the "upper seats" at today's conference.
What exactly were the "upper seats"? Simply put, these were the spots closest to the main stage occupied by the Cao Gang, where the sect leaders and top four or five members could sit in quite decent armchairs... Of course, their disciples still had to stand.
