Chapter 440 Challenge Accepted

The next day, Landon, Beri and the whole team began their 3-week journey to Zhuli City..... before splitting up and each going their own way.

Meanwhile, Back in Baymard... the usually busy streets became even more chaotic.

The roads were packed and the sidewalks were busy with majority of the people moving towards District D.

And within the District, hundreds and thousands of people we’re currently gathering in a massive stadium-like hall.

The place was rowdy and full of life!

And why wouldn’t it be?

Today was the day many people had been waiting for.

Today... was the first day within ’World Record week 1’.

It’s been 2 years since Baymard had begun their practice of creating World records..... as those who won and participated in them, usually ended up in the newspapers.... as well as in the world record part of the museum.

Their names would be legendary for many more years to come.

And due to this, they had also been seen as celebrities.... as people truly wanted to shake their hands and take portraits with them too.

And one shouldn’t forget that every year, even though these people don’t get any pay from doing this... an industry within Baymard, or even an association, like the human rights association, could end up giving them sponsorship deals and campaigns.

So they might get much more money at the end of the bargain.

And just this alone was enough to make many of them overly excited.

Last year, many of them had seen posters of the strongest man in the world eating the new vegetable Wraps from one of the most popular fast food places.... so how could they not want to sign a contract as well?

For now, contracts and campaigns only last a year, so as to give chances to other world record breakers.

Of course in the future, it might even last for 5 years if need be.

But for now, a year-long contract for these people, as already seen as a rare opportunity to them.

The reason why he had previously come, was because he wanted his son to school here in Baymard.

Of course he and his wife would have to work to pay the tuition, but he didn’t have any problems with that.... as nothing was more important than his son’s education and future.

Even though he was but a poor farmer from the empire of Deiferus, he had been saving money painstakingly for a year and a half now..... so as to plan for this move.

Anyway, while here... he had heard of the world record thing, and had immediately decided to participate in it, so as to make his wife and 7-year-old son feel proud of him.

.

"Aye... Danver.... if we don’t leave now, we are going to be late!" Said Danver’s neighbour on the 4th floor of the apartment complex that they were living in.

"Coming!" Danver said, while quickly locking his door.

His wife was at work, while his son was in school.

He hadn’t told them of his plans to participate, lest they became disappointed with the results.

Hence right now, even though it was his off day... he was still sneaking around to go-to for the event.

Taking the bus, he and his friend quickly arrived at the spot excitedly.

Looking at the crowded place, Danver felt his heart rate increase rapidly.... as if it was ready to fly out of his chest any moment from now.

This is it!

Today was the day that he would change his life!

With that thought in mind, he and his friend struggled to slip through the crowd, until they finally got to the front.

The crowd before him was like a pool of people, with everyone moving in their own direction.

Some were leaving the place with joy written all over their faces, while others had sadness on theirs instead.

Some people left feeling anxious, as they were scared that even if they won a world record title now.....someone else would challenge it and beat their record before the end of the 3-week long event.

And of course while some were leaving, many were also going in as well.

"Welcome sirs..... are you participants or observers?"
