Chapter 974: The Saber-Snatching Convention
```
The members of the Prairie's Eight Royal Clans had already arrived, and after a short while, more than ten belligerent monks joined them, belonging to the Kumara Sect—the national religion of the Golden Khanate.
Although the Kumara Sect is a branch of the Esoteric Sect, it has actually become a faction of its own and no longer has much of an association with the Esoteric Sect.
Interestingly, the rise of the Kumara Sect can be considered a miracle. After it split from the Esoteric Sect, its strength was not considered formidable, possessing only one individual at the Sun God Realm.
Upon arriving in the Golden Khanate, the Kumara Sect was cautious and humble, always avoiding conflict with both the indigenous Shamanism and the Eight Royal Clans.
