The emperor looked at his advisor, and asked ”How many people saw hinorant to the content of the letter, the imperial advisor looked back at his euards, eleven captains, and the City Lord himself”
The emperor handed the letter over to his advisor, which after a quick read, looked at the e ”Your I man mentioned by the Crown Prince?”
”It's far-fetched But it's simple to verify One needs the physique of a martial cultivator to be athe premiation, ill be able to confirm it” Responded the emperor in a calm tone
The news of the appearance of a dual cultivator had reached the Krehan empire after nine months
The reason why the news had reached them so fast, was because the letters and reports to the krehan eh a formation installed directly into the imperial castle
Spatial cultivators, which were always present during h mobility, were able to utilize this one-way formation to teleport small objects directly into the imperial castle
The size of what they could teleport depended on the distance In order to teleport a full grown man, they had to be no further than twenty thousand kiloht be lost in the middle
That meant that the entire military of the empire, whose total number was in the hundreds of millions, would theoretically be able to enter into an enormous pocket dimension, and teleport back into the castle from anywhere within the radius of twenty thousand kilometers
Unfortunately, due to side effects caused by a teleportation froer distance, thisused for military transportation
Of course, the empire had learned about this limitation in the worst possible way
When the spatial cultivator that thousands of years ago had found the instructions to replicate this for two hundred thousand instead of twenty thousand
When two thousand years ago the Krehan e e the capital, many fractions of the military had been forced to teleport back to the ist these factions, happened to be forty thousand kiloers, the st them to teleport them back
What arrived in the castle, was half of the body of the spiritual cultivator, and the ashes of as once the ring which contained the pocket dimension
This event had forced the empire to reexamine the instructions of the formation Only then did they find the mistake, and found out about the formation limitations
It was thanks to this formation that the news had reached all the way to the Krehan empire If they waited for the news to spread by voice, considering how far Nestreia was, it would have taken a century or longer

The next two days passed peacefully
Daniel had installed the time sphere into his pocket dimension, and had created a flow of time inside a two kilometer radius from the castle
Alesia had spent the past two days with the rest of the group, which was already accustomed to her presence Daniel had even allowed her to visit thetesting rooh into a sparringdefeated in only two moves
Her shock was so deep that she couldn't help but think of ould have happened if Jerigh joined the competition of the Ruler of the Sword in her place
Unfortunately, there was no going back now
When the day of the Evaluation and premiation arrived, Daniel and Alesia left the pocket dimension and teleported back into the Saullet mansion
There, they found the Saullet couple waiting for them
”Where were you?” Asked Ehtly worried tone
Alesia looked back at herout in Daniel's castle Lots of good people there”
”Alright Are you two ready to go? The evaluation will start in an hour” Said Edmund with a voice filled with an irritation that not even he knew the reason for
After both of them nodded, Edmund teleported the four of the of the square was slightly different There was a podiue, and the black-cloaked ht in front of it
Around the stage, all the disciples that had participated in the coe of the square
Closer to the edge, were those who had claiht to be evaluated first The rest stood in the back, and would be evaluated only for their presentation and demonstration
