From v7c46: The Dueling Peaks Gala

"For our second program, we have something special. An exhibition match of a wondrous and exotic art introduced to the Grand Marshal by Master Rou. It is a test of grace and skill, power and resilience—a simulated battle, where tactics and strategy are just as important as physical skill. This art shall be showcased by members of the Verdant Blade Sect and the Misty Lake Sect," the smooth voice stated, and I paused, at first confused at what he was referring to— until the arena froze over.She hadn't.I turned to look at Xiulan, who had a little smirk on her face. Xianghua had her hands on her hips, and her grin took up her entire face. Two teams skated out from opposite sides of the arena; the eyes of the disciples of the Verdant Blade and Misty Lake Sects were focused only on each other. The Verdant Blade Sect's disciples all had their faces painted in a mirror of what Xiulan had on the Solstice—while the Misty Lake Sect team were all wearing the traditional reed hats of the Misty Lake."Please observe the powerful art of Ha Qi. We are told it is customary to give names to these teams of cultivators. So without further ado, we have the Verdant Blade Sect Wusheng Heroes versus the Misty Lake Sect Dragon-Fisher Herons. The Grand Marshal shall begin the match."
