"A Familiar Hall"

When Ainsley's carriage descended into the front yard, many other carriages were also crowding the parking lot in front of the grand white mansion. 

However, these carriages were obviously better than the carriages that Ainsley saw when she attended the tournament's welcoming banquet. 

Indeed, no matter what, her rivals back then were middle-ranking families that were striving to be high-ranking families. 

But these people in front of her were genuine high-ranking families. 

Whether they just became one last year or had been one for decades or more, they're all high-ranking mafia families that were second only to the 7 great and 7 sacred families. 

Usually, when there were new high-ranking families, there were also old high-ranking families that fell from grace and got demoted to middle-ranking status.
