Alex stood not far from the gate in the group of 2000 people that were looking forward to the gate opening. There were 5 people present in front of the gate.
Huang Xinyi, the old man that had explained that earlier, the sect leader of the Blue Spring sect, wore his purple and white robes as he stood in the middle.
Wu Song, another elderly man that was the Grand elder of the Heaven's Frost sect wore his royal blue robes, waiting for the sun to come up.
Xuan Texin, Elder Xuan of the Frozen Heart sect also stood there, waiting.
Mu Beigong, the sect leader of the Nether Poison sect, had a face that looked half melted. Most others would have likely sought a cure or at least looked to hide it if they could not, but he didn't. Having been the victim of the best poison he had made, he proudly presented the horrific results of his actions to deter his enemies.
