The rules are as follows.
For the tournament, each of the three families and the City Lord's Manor has three slots for participants.
There will only be one round of matches.
It's the simplest format: one-on-one duels.
Each matchup will be decided by drawing lots.
The losers can still challenge a winner for a chance to take their place in the winner's group.
Whoever wins that challenge will replace the loser in the winners' bracket.
In the end—
The winners' group will fight one-on-one until it's settled.
The final four will represent Rising Clouds City and head to Kunlun Heavenly Lake!
After he finished explaining the rules—
The City Lord of Rising Clouds City, Zheng Yong'an, brought out a bucket of bamboo lots.
Each slip of bamboo had a participant's name written on it.
"Now, I'll draw the lots myself. Of course, if anyone has doubts or suspects foul play, you're welcome to speak up."
The crowd responded with good-natured smiles.
