685 DETAILS OF THE COMPETITION (1/2)
”Competition?” ,Jimmy asked as he felt that this competition is quite interesting.
”Hahaha! I know that you don't know anything. But since you people are like one of the best in the campus, I am going to tell you details in advance.” ,Jovan continued, ”The Solar City is considered to be very big by the common people. But those common people are just frogs in the well who hadn't seen the outside world. But since you people are my friends, I will borden your view a little.”
Jovan continued, ”There are total of nine province in the empire. The name of our empire is Wing Empire. And the nine provinces comes under the jurisdiction of the Wing Empire. They are Eagle Province, Crane Province, Wolf Province, Lion Province, Tiger Province, Serpent Province, Hawk Province, Fox Province, Turtle Province.”
”Wing? Wolf?” ,Lucky asked in amazement, ”What the hell? Why all the names has animals and birds involved in it?”
Jovan sighed and said, ”Our first Emperor is very fond of forest life. He has high interest in the forest life to the extent where he named all the provinces under his jurisdiction with animals and birds names.”
Lucky said, ”And our Solar City comes under Eagle Province.”
”That's right.” ,Jovan replied, ”And this is the reason why this competition is very important for every fighters in not only the Solar City, but for all the Cultivators in the Wing Empire.”
”Why would a competition conducted by the Eagle Province is very important for all the cultivators in the entire Wing Province?” ,Ram asked, ”If it is conducted by the Eagle Province, then the one who should give more importance to it are the cultivators from all the cities that comes under the jurisdiction of the Eagle Province right?”
”That's right. But this competition is conducted by none other than the Emperor himself!” ,Jovan said, ”To be honest, everyone were surprised with the emperor's decision to conduct the competition. This Wing Empire's competition is actually conducted by the emperor once every hundred years. The reason for this is to see the improvements made by all the fighters in their cultivation. And simultaneously, it is to look for any possible new talented fighters.”
”Alright. If that is the case, then why exactly the people in the empire are surprised with the emperor's decision? What is so strange about this?” ,Jimmy asked.
Jovan replied, ”As I said just now, this competition is conducted once every hundred years. And the previous competition was held just thirty years ago. Everyone were surprised with the emperor's decision. Because the emperor has moved the schedule much ahead of time this time. As for the reason for emperor's decision, no one knows it. But one thing is for sure. The entire empire is going to be busy. This competition is celebrated as one of the major festival in the entire empire!”
”How good is our Solar City in the competition?” ,Benjamin(Ben) asked.
Jovan stayed silent for a moment. He sighed in embarrassment and said, ”Don't mention it. Our City might look very strong from appearance. But the truth is that in the competition, the results of our city is not good at all. In the millions of years of history of this tournament, no contestant has ever reached close to the experts from other cities. It was according to the rules of the competition that the top ten candidates would go to the Royal Capital to compete for the championship. But after going to the Royal Capital, all the ten candidates from the Solar City has failed to reach the next round! It was a greatest disappointment for our city. This is one of the reason why our City Lord is not strict when it comes to the newcomers like you who wished to join our city. It became easy for you people to join our City, because the rules for joining the City weren't strict enough!”
