Chapter 1000: Duel Agreement**
Ouyang Huajin didn't keep Meng Zhang waiting for too long. A few days later, he sent a challenge letter through a messenger.
The letter specified that in three days' time, at the large training ground outside the imperial city, Ouyang Huajin intended to have a fair and public showdown with Meng Zhang. The purpose was to settle the grievances between them.
Within the capital, all private duels were prohibited by official regulations. Cultivators were not allowed to engage in fights or battles in secret.
However, disputes were inevitable within the Cultivation World. Moreover, the Dali Dynasty itself held a culture that revered the strong and looked down upon the weak. Whether it was official or civilian, there was a profound martial spirit prevalent throughout.
Therefore, the Dali Dynasty had specific laws in place.
If Cultivators had disputes that could not be resolved peacefully and they insisted on resorting to combat, they needed to first register their intention with the authorities. Then, under the supervision of designated officials, they would engage in a public showdown at a specific location.
Through life-and-death battles, they would resolve their disputes.
With Ouyang Huajin's influence, it was easy for him to handle all the necessary procedures.
Shortly after he sent the challenge letter, dedicated officials arrived at Meng Zhang's location to confirm his participation in the upcoming duel.
