Chapter 61: 061 Eastern Exchange Competition_1
Actually, this conjecture seems a bit far-fetched, almost like looking for a loophole in talent. Casio himself knew the probability was extrely low, but he still couldn’t help but think about it. After all, if it were to succeed, the rewards would be substantial.
He put Negri’s business card, which ca with a flattering smile, into his pocket. Just consider it an attempt, no harm if it couldn’t be successful. After the banquet was over, he could arrange a visit to this Sunset Antique Company and tour the antiques warehouse.
After all, he was not making a purchase, just browsing around for leisure.
Thinking this way, Casio went to get a dessert from the long table. He then returned to sit next to Moses.
Ti passed by the minute and the second, and the banquet finally ended around four o’clock in the afternoon. The guests dispersed one after another.
Only Casio and his martial brothers were left in the whole hall.
Moses and Casio sat on the sofa, and Lanxi, dressed in a blue suit, leaned casually on the armrest of the sofa. Heige was standing on the red carpet with a wine glass in his hand.
“This ti when I returned from East Sea County, I actually have a very important piece of news to share with you.”, Heige paused, as he beca aware that not everyone was present: “Your second senior sister is in seclusion. I will tell her the news personally when she cos out.”
As soon as he ntioned East Sea County, Moses blurted out, “Tell us about your experiences in East Sea County, is it as prosperous as they say in the newspapers? And the martial artists there…”
“The news I am going to share is related to martial artists.” Heige smiled slightly, “You should know that there is a very famous secret martial arts force in East Sea County, the Tsunami Yunquan Fist.”
“Yunquan Gate will join with two other second-tier secret martial arts forces in East Sea County to host the first Eastern Six-County Martial Arts Exchange Competition!”
“At that ti, the entire eastern secret martial arts world of the Hong Li Federation will be in an uproar. Nearly a hundred secret martial arts sects, both big and small, will most likely receive invitations, and most of them will choose to participate…”
Casio blinked his eyes. He had once heard his teacher Lixia talk about this Yunquan Gate. It was a top-notch existence in the martial arts world of the eastern part of the Hong Li Federation, and even had an air of being the number one secret martial arts sect in the eastern six counties. Due to the recent emphasis on the developnt of sea transportation by the Hong Li Federation in the last several decades, the number of ships and rchant ships on the sea had multiplied several tis.
Plenty of sea routes that connect to various countries around the world had been opened up.
East Sea County is elongated with an incredibly long coastline and several excellent harbors. Most of the business from Hong Li Federation to Star Blue Empire and Yana United Nations have to go through East Sea County. Hence, East Sea County is economically and culturally developed.
The originally top-tier second-rate Yunquan Fist took advantage of this opportunity to make a leap forward. Its influence expanded greatly and it beca the first force in the eastern region.
Heige took a sip of his wine, allowing everyone a slight relief to digest the news. Half a minute later, he continued, “Since this Eastern Exchange Competition is being held for the first ti, we won’t consider the participation of secret martial artists over thirty for now. Hence, the participants will be of our age group, talents from all sects…”
Hearing this, Casio could noticeably sense Fourth Brother Moses’s breathing beca heavier, and his excitent overflooding. Third Brother Lanxi also seed raring to give it a shot.
Is this the belligerent instinct of a martial artist? Or is it the desire to win or lose?
During this era, transportation and information were not well developed, we could even say it was quite closed off. So people will never leave their county in their lifeti, and martial artists also lack interaction. Talented martial artists like Moses and Lanxi could only occasionally spar and exchange with so secret martial arts sects and martial arts halls in North Flow County.
Sotis, even opponents were lacking, thus they could only practice with their sect mbers.
Now, an opportunity to enter the broader secret martial arts world and to witness dozens of different secret martial arts schools was presented before their eyes.
The feeling of excitent and anticipation imdiately overflowed.
Afterward, Heige reiterated the rewards of the competition. There were prizes for the top ten, with the most exceptional ones for the top three, and it decreased progressively. The last seven places received the sa prizes, without any distinction. But even the rewards for the last seven nas were quite generous, all of which were cultivation resources.
Casio was sowhat unable to contain himself when he heard about the rewards.
As expected of a top-tier sect in a prosperous place, the prizes for the last seven places were only slightly inferior to the rewards given by the sect for discovering the Orchid Heart Grass. Not to ntion the grand prize for the top three, and especially the first place, which probably would be several grades higher.
Not only that, according to elder brother Heige, even the sects behind these ten people could benefit. It seed that Yunquan Gate would start economic and resource cooperation with those sects. In any case, the value of the benefits was even more astonishing than for individuals.
“Yunquan Gate is aiming to make a na for the Eastern Exchange Competition in one go, and also to establish itself as the number one in the east…”, Casio made a brief guess about the intentions of this competition.
“Exactly.”, Moses nearby snapped his fingers,”But this Eastern Exchange Competition they are hosting suits my taste!”
“I’m already sowhat impatient to participate…”, Moses twisted his robust neck, a series of crisp bone noises echoed.
“Don’t rush, as core disciples of the Wind Elephant Gate, we will definitely secure places to compete, just be patient.” Heige laughed, “Before we officially go to East Sea County to participate in the exchange competition, there might be an internal ranking competition within the county first, to finalize everyone’s ranking. Then, when the official competition begins, we will be divided into groups according to the rankings inside each county.”
Casio turned quiet, rembering sothing. The extermination of Wind Elephant Gate was after the in-county competition, where so senior mbers accompanied all participating disciples and spectators to East Sea County.
They were ambushed halfway, almost annihilated.
The scene of the battle in his mory was extrely clear. The gate master and elders fought fiercely to block the enemies, many teachers protected the nurous disciples to flee, but in the end, they all fell one by one.
As for other information, it was a bit blurry. The mories in Li Wei’s obsession were like a movie. Only so major scenes would have clear images and detailed information, and there were large gaps and temporal jumps between each clear scene.
“Why were they ambushed on the way? Is there a trap in this Eastern Martial Arts Exchange Competition? Is it related to Yunquan Gate?”
Casio had a pile of questions in his heart, he took a deep breath, switching his attention from his mind to the external world. At present, Elder Brother Heige was telling stories about East Sea County under Moses’s request, especially about the prosperity of martial arts in East Sea County.
Around four-thirty, the four of them left Ferro Hall. The aftermath of the banquet, of course, they didn’t need to deal with. There would naturally be waitstaff and cleaning crew to take care of it.
The largest shareholder behind this Ferro Hall was Wind Elephant Gate, so Heige didn’t have to pay a cent to host the banquet here.
