The players participating in the mercenary PvP tournament gathered at the square outside the Hall of Mercenaries' entrance with ten minutes left before 7 P.M. Official statement stated that a teleportation array would send these players into their respective PvP arenas.
Players who had the participation-was-more-important-than-the-result mindset showed their high level of responsibility at this point and, as long as they were part of mercenary groups, made sure to participate in the PvP tournament. As such, the square was crowded with players like canned sardines and even the many roads leading to the square were filled with people.
