Upon hearing this, the others quickly reacted.

Someone immediately said, "Of course we have to continue. Our 'Extreme Martial Sect' is still waiting to reclaim the territories of those three cities we lost ten years ago. How can it just end like this?"

"Moreover, the Seven Provinces Martial Alliance Tournament is held once every ten years. It's a traditional event that has been continued for hundreds of years by all the cultivation forces in the seven southeastern provinces. How can it stop just because the host is dead?"

Someone else chimed in, "Exactly. What difference does it make if Master Pingyang, who was supposed to host this tournament, is dead? We can just continue as planned."
