People of the North Court loved to duel, and the way they went about it was not entirely similar to other nations.
Gu Shenwei could still recall how the kung fu practitioners of the Central Plain duelled. Theirs was more of a ritual and preparations could take days or even months. Both sides would gather close ones to provide support and at least three respected elders of the martial arts community would be invited to become moderators. The time and place would be fixed beforehand, as would a list of prohibitions during the competition itself.
