All the Blademasters in the room seem to ignore you as you walk by. They may target you to do a /rude or other emote. Nothing to be concerned with, really.
This quest appears to be bugged. The blade either doesn't appear or is not useable to start the fight. Bug report link

Beastrider Spaulders, Plainsthunder Shoulders, Stormsteppe Pauldrons, 16g 98s, 10,950 XPDescription
The time has come to challenge the Burning Blade masters. Go to the back of the cavern. There you will find the challenge ring and the masters watching over it from above. Pull the blade from the middle of the ring to issue your challenge. My clan values honor above all else and will respect your claim to trial by combat. As reward, you will be allowed to walk away with your blueprints and your life. Or, you will be dead.
