At the edge of the Miura Clan's floating island, the carrier flying treasures that brought the participating youths to the Land of Shadows were nowhere to be seen. What replaced them in this airspace were several floating platforms made of clouds that were hundreds of meters wide.
There were roads made of clouds led from the island towards these fancy platforms, and disciples were moving from the island to these platforms using them.
The Mortal Realm disciples had to settle for walking while looking up in the sky as the disciples in the Spiritual Realm casually passed by over their heads and elegantly landed on the cloud platforms. Of course, most of them came prepared to possibly face Spiritual Realm cultivators so they carried flying treasures with them to use, however, to take them out now and use them would be too embarrassing.
