Chapter 341: Chapter 130: Golden Dawn Dabbing the Eyebrows, The Silver-White Warrior
“Hoo—”
With the sound of rushing wind, a giant golden eagle as large as a mountain slowly landed in the wilderness outside a towering and majestic city, so vast that its borders couldn’t be seen at a glance. The eagle kicked up a wild wind that surged in layers around it.
As the golden eagle settled pletely on the ground, a figure floated down, and behind him, dozens of young men and women landed gracefully on the ground, sheltered by a pale cyan wind energy, from the back of the giant eagle.
It was Mu Yuxing and the members of the Yongnan City Beast Taming Union he was leading to participate in the pre-selection battles.
Among the crowd, Lin Su’s eyes widened as he looked at the imperial city not far away, which was several times more magnificent than Yongnan City, his face showing a look of surprise.
Such a grand scale.
Is this the Imperial City of the Great Yan Kingdom?
The Imperial City of the Great Yan Kingdom lies in the central region of the country.
There are five cities in the central region. Besides the Imperial City at the center, the other four cities are located in the east, west, south, and north, guarding the Imperial City.
While flying in the sky, Lin Su had already taken in the scale of the other four cities from a bird’s-eye view.
The four cities bined did not pare to the grandeur of the imperial city before him.
“Let’s go.”
pared to the astonishment of the young Beast Tamers who were visiting the Imperial City for the first time, Mu Yuxing’s expression was remarkably calm. He recalled the Golden Feathered Vulture into the Beast Taming Space and took the lead, walking toward the towering gates of the imperial city.
Seeing this, the rest of the group came back to their senses and hurried to follow.
They entered the Imperial City to register for the pre-selection battles and settled down in the temporary acmodations prepared by the central Beast Taming Union for the peting Beast Tamers.
After Mu Yuxing revealed his identity, everything went quite smoothly.
Soon, the people from Yongnan City gathered again in a small hall that came with the acmodations.
“The pre-selection battles will start tomorrow, with the elite and master Beast Tamers peting separately,” Mu Yuxing glanced at the group and got straight to the point, “The first round of knockout battles will start tomorrow after registration closes. It will last four days, and each of you will only need to fight once.”
“After the knockout round, there will be a revival match that lasts two days. That is the only chance for those who are unlucky to face strong opponents and are eliminated in the first round to reenter the petition.”
“After the revival match, there will be a second round of knockout battles lasting three days.”
“After two rounds of knockouts, there will be a rest day followed by a fifteen-day round-robin tournament, and then the finals.”
These were all pieces of information that the group had learned about in advance, so Mu Yuxing simply mentioned them briefly before he changed the subject, “Now the battle order hasn’t been announced. It’ll probably take about an hour, so you can either wander around the Imperial City or stay in your rooms to cultivate.”
“Okay!” the group responded and quickly left the small hall.
Since Lin Su wasn’t very familiar with the others, he was one of the few who didn’t join anyone.
This was his first time in the Imperial City, so naturally, he wanted to witness the grandeur of the Great Yan Kingdom’s Imperial City.
Of course, his main objective was to attempt the challenge at the Imperial City’s Beast Tower.
Before ing here, Lin Su was worried that challenging the tower would take too much time, causing Mu Yuxing and the other Beast Tamers to wait for him, so he didn’t challenge the Beast Tower.
After all, challenging a tower would be the same anywhere, so he decided to make up for it here.
Lin Su left the post house, wandering aimlessly on the street, contemplating the words Mu Yuxing had just said.
In the whole Great Yan Kingdom, there are a total of twenty-three cities of varying sizes. Yongnan City is one of the stronger ones, so it can send as many as seventy Beast Tamers to participate in the pre-selection battles. Other cities may not have as many, so altogether, there should be around a thousand Beast Tamers participating in the pre-selection battles.
After the first round of knockout battles and the revival match, there will be about seven to eight hundred left, and after the second knockout round, three to four hundred will enter the round-robin tournament.
With so many people participating in the tournament, it’s naturally impossible to finish in one day. Both knockout rounds plus the revival match will take a full nine days, which is pretty normal.
If everything goes as expected, I will only need to participate in two knockout rounds, so in nine days, I will only fight two battles, which is relatively easy.
As for the round-robin tournament after the knockout rounds,
with six people in a group, each person must fight every other member, needing to fight a total of fifteen battles, one per day, which means the round-robin will last fifteen days.
In those fifteen days, I, Lin Su, will have to fight each of the other five people in my group, so on average, I will have to fight a battle every three days, making the schedule a bit tighter.
If the top two from each group advance to the finals, based on these numbers, there will be over a hundred people peting for the two elite Beast Tamer slots.
Lin Su couldn’t help but shake his head.
Indeed, the finals are the most petitive.
Goose-yellow light flickered under his feet, and soon, Qiuqiu and Guigui appeared beside Lin Su.
“Meow? (｡òωó｡)” (Where is this?)
Qiuqiu quickly surveyed its surroundings, realizing it was in a pletely unfamiliar place. It promptly jumped up to perch on Lin Su’s forehead, its curiosity piqued as it began to ask questions.
As for Guigui, seeing the blazing sun overhead, it decisively dove into Lin Su’s shadow, its large eyes also filled with curiosity as they peeked out.
“This is the Imperial City; we’ve arrived at the place where the pre-selection battles will be held. However, the pre-selection battles start tomorrow,” Lin Su explained with a smile, “So for now, we’re going to the Beast Tower to plete today’s challenge.”
