"Of course!" the attendant explained with a smile. "There can be significant differences in the fighting prowess of cultivators despite the cap of cultivation here, and there is no one who would be willing to challenge a person whom they know they can't win against in the dueling ring. The main purpose of the dueling ring is to temper one's combat techniques, and this can only be done with a suitable opponent. Thus, in order to allow for better pairing of opponents, the dueling ring is divided into various tiers too!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.
Take him for example, competition at such a level couldn't even trigger his motivation at all, let alone sharpen his skills.
"The dueling rings are divided into primary, intermediate, and advanced. If you are able to win ten rounds consecutively in a certain tier, you will be allowed to proceed to the next tier," the attendant explained.
