45. The Drug

Among the people present, Clifford recognized some faces he had seen during the strength test. One of them was Stella Redclaw, ranked second to Vlad Silverblade. However, Clifford believed that was only on the surface since most cultivators tend to hide their true powers. Of the three arenas, two were reserved for friendly spars, and one for wager fights.

The arena allowing wagers had formations set in place to prevent dangerous situations. The moment a killing intent was released, the formation would trigger and disqualify the responsible party. The wagers were between the fighters, not the audience. As such, other than the students involved in the fights, nobody else wasted their time there unless they were bored enough to treat the fights as entertainment.
