"Have you ford your group?" asked Eloise to confirm.
"Sorry for not telling you. I've already ford it," Aaron replied.
Eloise was silent, as was Emily. They stared at each other for a while, which was enough to confuse Aaron. In the end, they responded by nodding their heads.
It was easy for soone to form a group. It only required confidence, ability, and so money to build it from scratch. Aaron, with all the things he had, it was not difficult for him to form his group.
Eloise found it helpful that Aaron had already done it, so she didn't have to explain from the beginning.
The woman smiled contentedly, not showing her annoyance. Instead, she held the glass forward, asking Aaron to pour the wine for her.
"It's good you've ford your group. I don't think I need to explain from the beginning about the group and its terms of establishnt," Eloise replied, accepting the wine in her glass, a dark purple wine with a sour and slightly bitter taste.
Aaron did the sa, pouring the dark purple wine into his glass. Emily chose to enjoy the water while her sister and Aaron downed the alcoholic bottle. The three toasted before eating the food ahead of them.
"So, as your question suggests. The inter-group tournant is hosted by many parties, from the guild office to the three major groups," Eloise replied.
"The three major groups take on the role of organizers? Not participants?"
"In the past, we joined as participants. However, there were protests from other groups who said the three major groups' abilities were no longer at their level."
"At that ti, the three major group presidents on the top floor decided to put the three major groups as supre rank groups," Eloise said.
'It turns out that there really is a rank higher than High. It seems difficult for one group to break through to Supre rank,' Aaron said.
Eloise stared straight ahead, smiling as Aaron looked stunned at the Supre Rank. The woman had predicted it.
Aaron was indeed ambitious to bring his group up to Supre rank to be on par with the three major groups.
The woman tried to act naturally as if she didn't know Aaron's ambition. Telling him that Aaron's group would have a hard ti breaking through to the Supre rank would only bring a bad reputation to the notoriously sensitive Aaron. It was better for Eloise to play it safe.
"If your group manages to reach Supre rank, then I will join your group, Master Venerable Sage," Emily replied, innocently and naively filled with enthusiasm.
Aaron smiled, her behavior reminding him of Sokia, "If you join, you will leave your sister alone here, Emily."
"That's okay. I don't mind if she leaves. After all, she'll be safe with you."
The man cleared his throat, chugging the wine in his glass until it was gone. Again, Aaron poured the wine into his glass and Eloise's glass. Eloise began to discuss the chanism of the group tournant, Aaron began to listen carefully.
"To participate in the tournant, a group must have at least 10 mbers. There is no tier limit for mbers on the 25th floor, but on the 50th floor, there is a specific limit."
"Each group has the right to send a maximum of three mbers to join. The registration fee is 50000 RL for one mber," Eloise replied, saying the price of the registration fee had not changed.
Aaron listened as he sipped the wine in his glass. The information he got today could be directly known to Lewis, who was currently eting Bella in the negotiation room of the City Guild Office.
The woman before Aaron continued to explain about the tournant. Before the main round of the tournant was held in the Lilith Arena, the participants would fight according to their group rank. For example, Low rank.
Groups with Low rank would fight each other with groups of the sa rank. They called it pre-qualification.
The system was a knockout, and those who won moved on to the second pre-qualification stage. The Guild Office will take the 10 participants who completed the pre-qualification to fight in the final qualification.
In the final qualifying round, participants from the Low-rank group will fight against those from the Interdiate rank. One group will be filled with five people for the system in the final qualifier. Each person will fight against the others in that group, and one participant will fight against four people at different tis.
Those who win will get two points, those who draw will get one point, and those who lose will get zero points. The total number of qualifying groups reached 10, with a total of 50 people fighting in the qualifying round.
Only first and second place will qualify for the main round, and a total of 20 people will qualify for the main round.
In the main round, the group system will again be used with a total of ten groups. Each group will contain five people like the final qualifiers.
Only those who reached the top of the standings could proceed to the quarterfinals, the semifinals, the finals, and the champion.
Eloise estimates that the total ti needed to reach the final round is 1-2 months. Currently, registration for rank-low groups to join the pre-qualifiers was open.
'I need to recruit at least 10 mbers to join,' Aaron explained.
"Is there no minimum tier limit for tournant participants?" Aaron asked, Eloise shook her head.
She said that the better the group recruited talented people, the greater the chance of them entering the main round. That was quite a relief. With Lewis' level, there would be no one who could match him in this city.
"I had to qualify to join the pre-qualification. I have to find 10 mbers to join," Aaron said.
"That's why you have to find mbers right away. However, I don't want to make you pessimistic. Most mages already have their groups. So, it will be difficult for you," Eloise explained.
"Indeed, but there's nothing prohibiting from snatching mbers of other groups, right?" asked Aaron; Eloise shook her head.
"As long as you have 10 mbers, then you're eligible to join the pre-qualification."
"Then I'll take Sara and the others. They will join my group," said Aaron, surprising Eloise and Emily.
This was what Eloise was afraid of. She was worried that Aaron would take more mbers from Sky Sword just because his ability was stronger than Eloise's. The woman looked at Aaron with squinted eyes as if she was asking him to forbid him from doing so.
"I won't accept it!" said Eloise, refusing.

"How about we make a deal?" asked Aaron, surprising the woman.
Aaron took out his SS rank talent slip and showed three of these items. Eloise gasped, as did Emily. They didn't have any S rank talents yet, but the man in front of them offered SS rank talent slips.
"Three SS rank talent slips?" asked Eloise, shocked.
"The deal is that I will hand over these three items to you as long as you are willing to hand them over just to qualify my group for the tournant. How's that?" asked Aaron.
"I don't know, I can't—"
"AGREED!" said Emily happily and excitedly.
"You? You swapped our mbers just because of that talent slip?" asked Eloise, shocked.
"Yes. It's only temporary, after all. They will return to Sky Sword after the tournant is over. Right?"
Aaron nodded, agreeing with what Emily said, "She's right. I'll bring them back. I promise."
