Dai He took Lin Mu to one of the side areas, that had a few tables set up. There were several guests sitting there, talking to each other. Lin Mu took a look and could tell that all of them seemed to have met each other recently took from their subtle behavior.

"Honored guests, please meet Daoist Mu Lin. This is also his first banquet as well as his first Tournament of the Guardian beasts." Dai He spoke after coming to stand between the tables

A good host would know which guests to introduce to who. After all, even if there were many guests invited that were all promising competitors, there were still difference in their status and belonging.

Thus one had to match them with similar guests, at least for the start. It wasn't obligatory that one must only talk to guests that were similar to them. This was simply so that the guests would find it comfortable to mingle.

For people who had never taken part in the tournament before, a gathering like this would be rather new and they might find it a bit awkward to talk to others. Thus the host had gathered them this way.

First they could get acquainted with each other, and then talk to the other guests. There were no restrictions after all.

"Greetings Daoist Mu Lin." Some of the people greeted freely.

"Hello." Some were a little shy but still greeted.

And then there were a few that simply didn't say anything and looked at him blankly.

Lin Mu didn't mind their actions and simply greeted them the same.

He cupped his hands and spoke, "greetings to you all too. I hope we all have fun today."

"Haha, we sure will." One of the men sitting on the table replied enthusiastically and stood up. "Please join us," he gestured to the empty spot on the table.

"I'll take that up then." Lin Mu said before puling the chair and sitting down while the host left to attend to the new guests.

Little Shrubby peeked his head out from below the table and looked at the people too. The sight of his head elicited a few reactions from the two women that were sitting on the table as well.

"AH~ Is brother Mu Lin a beast tamer too?" one of the women asked.

Lin Mu looked at her, finding her to be in her mid twenties appearance wise. But from her cultivation base, he was sure that she was at least a couple thousand years old.
