Chapter 978 - Four Regions Tournament (1)

Shen Yanxiao had unknowingly reached the peak of centralization.

She had yet to realize how much influence she had on the people in Sun Never Sets and Oriental City. Moreover, this level of influence would soon create a prosperous future for Shen Yanxiao.

But right now, that future was still far away.

Shen Yanxiao was busy expanding her influence.

Time passed day by day, and the seventh day of the seventh month was soon approaching.

At this time, Shen Yanxiao had received an invitation.

In the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, Shen Yanxiao sat on the main seat and as she read the invitation letter in her hands, the corner of her lips slightly curled up.

She had waited for this day for a long time. She did not forget how much trouble Geng Di that bastard had caused her when she was building Sun Never Sets.

The upcoming tournament was the best time for her to take revenge. She could finally outright beat up that bastard Geng Di!

“The Fourth Regions Tournament is divided into three categories: team, individual, and group. A team battle is a hundred-man all-out brawl while the individual battle will be participated by the city lord of the four forces. As for the group… it’s a battle between five to ten people. City Lord, do you have plans on who to bring with you?” Du Lang analyzed the current situation.

Today, all the important members of Sun Never Sets were present. This was the first time Sun Never Sets had participated in a tournament, and they wanted to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. And so, they had no choice but to pay attention to them.

If they won, the eastern region of the Forsaken Land would gain a firm foothold in the Forsaken Land. If they lost, they would be reduced to the miserable state of being exploited by others.

The purpose of the tournament was to test the disparity in strength between the few cities in the Forsaken Land. The team battle tested the comprehensive strength of each city while the individual battle tested the strength of the four city lords. As for the group battle, it was a battle between the elites of each city.

Winner was king, losers were bandits.

The winner would obtain certain benefits from the other three territories, and the losers could only accept the fact that they had been exploited.

“Which side won the previous tournament?” Shen Yanxiao propped her chin and asked.

“The Twilight City of the Seventh Kingdom,” Du Lang said.

“Twilight City? Isn’t it Blizzard City?” Tang Nazhi was surprised by the answer. No matter how he looked at it, the other two cities, excluding Sun Never Sets, were weaker than Blizzard City.

Be it Long Fei’s personal strength, the quality of soldiers in Blizzard City, or their elites, Blizzard City was second to none.

Du Lang shook his head and said. “Long Fei did not participate in the previous tournament which was equivalent to forfeiting the individual battle. Also, something else happened during the team battle, which resulted in their loss.”

“The God Wind Alliance had lost the team battle?” Yan Yu raised his eyebrows. This situation was even more inconceivable. Long Fei might not have attended due to physical reasons, but Blizzard City still belonged to the God Wind Alliance. The strength of the mercenaries under the God Wind Alliance was the most outstanding in the entire Brilliance Continent. No matter how he looked at it, they would not lose to any country’s army.

Du Lang said, “Long Fei did not participate in the previous tournament and the people they sent out for the team battle were not from the Blizzard Mercenary Group. Instead, they were the allied force of the other four mercenary groups. Within those hundred people they chose, each mercenary group sent out twenty-five people. Even though their individual strength was powerful, they did not come from the same branch. Thus, their teamwork in the team battle was inferior, so naturally, they could not compare to the forces of the other cities.”

“There seems to be some internal strife going on in the God Wind Alliance,” Qi Xia whispered with a faint smile.
