After a brief break, the second round began. This time, there were fewer disciples participating outside the competition stage.
The rules of the Outer Courtyard Minor Competition were quite simple. The first two rounds were considered a selection phase, where the elders announced the match-ups from a large pool of participants. Then, the top ten would be selected for the third round, which was the real main event, where the top ten Outer Courtyard disciples would also compete.
