Chapter 60
Since the actual martial matches wouldn't begin until the afternoon, most were idly scanning the surroundings, which is how they immediately recognized Daoist Hyehae, seated at the farthest end.
“Daoist Hyehae, has the Palace Lord of the Three Spirits Palace come to observe today?”
It was a purely formal inquiry.
“She has not.”
“Then what brings you here?”
“One of our palace’s disciples is participating in the martial contest, so I have come in the Palace Lord’s stead to observe.”
“A disciple from the Three Spirits Palace is participating in the martial contest?”
“Ha, to think the Lineage of Daoist Transmission would take on a martial disciple? How unusual.”
As the palace lords murmured among themselves, Ujin Palace Lord Yunhyeon Jin furrowed his brow slightly and spoke.
“I did hear something about Three Spirits Palace sending a disciple to True Martial Hall for training.”
Unlike the other palace lords, the Ujin Palace Lord had already caught wind of this, as it involved a child from Yeongmudang, where his own disciple Hyeonmun was currently stationed.
Especially since his grand-disciple, Seok Jangsan, had persistently pestered him about Kwak Yeon, he couldn’t help but take an interest.
