Sparring matches were a common affair at gatherings of martial artists, often used as a way to liven up the atmosphere.

"An excellent proposal, Master Liu. Just sitting here is dreadfully dull."
"Indeed. Everyone says the Liuhe Sect's Fist Skill is exceptionally refined. Let us see it for ourselves today."
Gao Yuan considered for a moment, then nodded. "Very well. However, I have one small request: whoever steps into the ring, please exercise restraint. We wouldn't want to harm the friendly atmosphere."
Martial artists are hot-blooded. It's common for what starts as a friendly exchange to end in bloodshed and enmity. A reminder beforehand was necessary.
"Don't worry, Master Gao. We'll just let the junior disciples have a bit of fun."
"Yes, yes. We'll pull our punches."
