《Winter Sovereign》Chapter 68: Tournament Start
Advertisement
Serra listened intently.
How amusing... So, he thought that far? If so, he must've anticipated the time when he would have to leave or that something would happen to him. He knows it himself that he only rose through the conflict and became such an overlord of his generation because of the chaos and war.
He thought to himself.
Conflict may give birth to tragedy, deaths and despair, but also gives birth to hope.
Along with the rise of new heroes.
Only heroes who faced adversity could hope to rise to greatness.
After all, a smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.
Isn't that so for me?
"Well then, let's end it here and rest. We should make preparations for the tournament."
Lilia said then left through the door.
"Hm. This tournament... I hope it's interesting."
After that, days passed.
Lilia and the rest gathered information and prepared for the tournament.
Serra prepared potions and various medicinal pills for the team.
Of course, he stayed within the limits he set on himself.
It wouldn't do at all to go beyond them.
That would break the balance of the game.
Finally, the day of the tournament would start would officially begin.
An announcement was released throughout the city.
"All participants of the tournament are to head to the tournament grounds before noon immediately! Any team not present before the start will be removed from the tournament!"
The various teams were alerted.
At once, they stopped whatever they were doing and headed to the tournament grounds.
They gathered together and moved.
There were a myriad of expressions gathered on their faces.
Some were worried.
Some were excited.
While others showed confidents expressions as they moved along.
Regardless, none of them held fear whatsoever.
They all had confidence in themselves and aimed for glory.

"Lilia!"
Luisa also heard the announcement and immediately went to find the rest.
She immediately went to the inn.
"Luisa! You heard the announcement?"
Lilia said.
Luisa nodded.
"Where are the rest?"
She asked.
"They're should be gathering here."
Footsteps were heard.
Serra and Aies came down.
"It's finally time!"
Aies excitedly claimed.
"So it is."
Serra nodded.
"Let's go then."
"Wait. Seileen isn't here yet."
Lilia stopped them.
"What? Where is she?"
"She should still be at the shops looking at weapons."
Aies spoke impatiently while Serra remembered where she went.
"There's no way she didn't hear the announcement. Let's wait a bit."
Lilia dissuaded them.
Aies pouted but calmed down.
Serra merely nodded in understanding.
In that moment...
"I'm here!"
Seileen came bursting in.
She was sweating.
She must've rushed here immediately.
"I came here immediately after I heard!"
"Since we're all here. Let's go."
Lilia spoke.
With a nod, everyone left.
At the tournament grounds.
It was a grand sight.
There were thousands of people.
It was literally a sea of people.
Furthermore, all of them were cultivators!
There plenty of grand characters who ruled as overlords of their regions.
Powerful cultivators rarely seen were as plentiful as grass here.
They were all respectfully sitting in their respective seats.
Waiting patiently for the tournament.
Down below, there were a few thousand youths participating in the tournament.
They were wearing proud and excited expressions.
None were arrogant.
All present understood that everyone present here were their peers and were by no means easy foes.
They couldn't allow themselves to be the slightest bit arrogant.

Rise of the Desolate Star
“The soul is a sword. The body its sheath. Adversity is the hammer, while courage is the anvil. Oh, and son? Your tears and snot, they’re just the sparks that chip away at the impurities, like dungflies off a sow’s arse.” - Kendric Farrow Ever since he could remember, young Skyle Farrow’s body and mind have been hammered relentlessly like red-hot steel against the anvil of adversity under the watchful eyes of his father. All the while, Skyle’s heart and soul have been nurtured by the enduring warmth of his loving mother. Skyle has always asked why a simple farmboy would have need for all manner of skills like hand-to-hand combat, wilderness tracking, archery, beast taming, geography, history, politics, and even embroidery! The one vital question remains unasked, however: just what are his parents preparing him for? The invasion of a demonic horde? The advent of an age of war and endless bloodshed? The dark legacy of an ancient mystical power? A desperate struggle to save the lives of those he holds dear? The end of the world? It is a good thing he never asked these questions, for the answer would have been yes - to all of them. Now Skyle must take his first steps beyond the sheltered world he has known. He has been raised strong, but is he strong enough? Welcome to a tale of friendship, love, loss and heartbreak. It chronicles the growth of a young boy into a legend whose path will shatter the very foundations of the world. Expect a rich, detailed world with vivid characters. Each will pursue their own complex agendas due to realistic motivations. The MC will be overpowered, not through liberal use of plot armor but rather the deliberate application of arduous training, clever thinking, and nurtured talent. Battles will be graphic, victories will be bittersweet, and defeat will not mean the end of the world - for time waits for no one and life goes on whether we like it or not. New chapters posted on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6 p.m EST, 10 p.m. GMT.
