Three days later, Kuilan Pavilion.
For thousands upon thousands of years, the City of Ten Thousand Kings had always been the largest and most prosperous city of the Great Wilderness Humans. Placed in the Main World, it would have been a nation's cultural, economic, and political center!
In a city inhabited by several million people, the conditions for food, clothing, housing, and transportation were naturally exceptionally abundant. There were taverns and restaurants of every size catering to commoners, as well as high-class establishments that received nobles and wealthy magnates.
Kuilan Pavilion was one such top-tier establishment.
The enormous nine-story pavilion stood by the inner lake. When night fell, the ever-burning lamps hanging beneath its eaves lit up, reflecting off the rippling lake surface. It was truly one of the sights of the City of Ten Thousand Kings.

Including Miya and Gao Jing, everyone wore Witchmark Masks.
A Witchmark Mask was a special Witchcraft Artifact. Strictly speaking, it was actually an eyepatch, but once worn, it could conceal one's appearance, alter the color of one's pupils, and even modify one's voice.
Transcendents below the Legendary rank basically had no chance of seeing through it!
Such Witchcraft Artifacts were quite costly, beyond the means of ordinary Wizards. Yet the members of the mutual aid alliance summoned by Miya were no ordinary people, and Witchmark Masks were merely standard equipment for them.
According to Miya, the alliance gatherings she organized had always preferred a lack of candidates over indiscriminate acceptance.
Anyone attending had to possess a piece of Void Equipment.
There was no need to elaborate on the value of Void Equipment. It was so expensive
