NOTE[1]
Lu Bihai sat at his desk in his make shift office, working on some documentation - in addition to his regular work, he has been busy with formalities and paperwork ever since the competition of the three big Sects changed format into a tournament - when he heard a commotion outside.
His eyes went up to the door, without raising his head, without putting down the paper scroll he held slightly up to read, without moving his body at all. An unreadable expression appeared on his face.
Soon, the disturbance grew louder - its source was drawing near - and then the door burst open. The Inner Court Elder of the Ember Palm Pavilion barged into the room with a livid expression on his face, a few of Lu Bihai's subordinates closely following, two of whom were trying to physically restrain the intruder but were no match for someone at the gate of Essence Ignition Realm.
