The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2642  Champions Tournament (1)

On the Continent of Beasts...

On the majestic continent dominated by the beasts, the vast territory of lush nature and the oldest tribes in the world hadn't changed all that much with the new technologies that had revolutionized the world over the last two decades.

However, the majestic continent led by the dragons of the Spiritual World had not lagged behind the spiritual growth of the rest of the world. While the forces of the Central Continent and Divine Continent had prospered with alien technologies and less competition for resources, these beast-lands had been revolutionized by the introduction of foreign organisms.

After exterminating the alien beings, parts of the Spiritual World's beast races discovered some after-effects of alien beings in their homies. Certain animals and plants thrived in a symbiotic relationship that contributed to the spiritual well-being of the planet, enabling them to coexist harmoniously.

In recent years, several alien plant beings and a few bestial beings had been introduced to the Continent of Beasts and successfully integrated into this community.

Coupled with the bodies of enemies buried in the area, as well as less competition for resources, the continent's inhabitants had grown stronger, just as the forces of the Central Continent had!

The Nine-Tailed Fox Tribe, which, its members could now go further in their cultivation than just the 9th stage, had evolved a lot in recent years, as had the Gorgon Tribe, the Phoenix Tribe and, most importantly, the Dragon Tribe.

All these forces had narrowly survived the calamity, with between 10 and 30 members of their race left for each tribe, not much, but enough to be hopeful.

Unlike the Sky Whales, who had been wiped out, all these races, even those with fewer members remaining, had the chance to recover their numbers in the future.

Some of these tribes even had members born after the war, juniors who would probably have the easiest time in the history of the Spiritual World.

Certainly, these tribes were 'vulnerable' with their small numbers. However, they had virtually no competition among themselves and, perhaps for this reason, were living peacefully at present.

In one of the few cities on the continent, representatives of each of the tribes now lived together to maintain communication between their active forces.

In this particular place, a city of 10,000 inhabitants, where over 500 races now lived, could be seen from afar for beings flying nearby.

Buildings for humanoid beings dominated the central area of the city, as human groups also maintained a position there. But on the sides of the city, there were several areas for beasts in their natural forms, with many types of housing, stores and services available.

Towards the center of the city, in one of the largest local buildings, a group of area leaders were talking about urgent matters from the Central Continent!

"Vico and Callie have returned? So soon?" Asked a level 97 dragon, representative of his tribe in this city.

"That really is a surprise," said a level 96 phoenix when she saw the human representing the Black Plain Empire nod in agreement.

Elen Nash, an old ally of Minos and the empire's current representative on the Continent of Beasts, level 92, said, " the journey of Minos and the others was truly successful, which is why Vico and Callie returned early. Callie is now in The Adamant Land taking care of helping the local forces, while Vico is in the Central Continent. But the most important thing about their return is the chance for more people to join Minos' group in Zocarro!"

The surrounding creatures, 27 beings to be precise, each from different races, the weakest at level 94 and the strongest at level 97, looked at her with a glint of interest in their eyes.

Apart from the gorgon, whose eyes were covered with eye patches, they all felt that her next words would be positive for them in some way.

Elen continued, "His Imperial Majesty Rowan Stuart intends to host the Champions Tournament in the Black Plain Empire. It will give direct access to a place in the group that will go to Zocarro with Vico and Callie, but also the right to vie for another indirect place that will be decided between the losers of the Spiritual World and The Adamant Land competitions."

She explained further. "There will be four tournaments, considering our two worlds. One of them will be for non-subordinates of the Stuart family. And the other will be exclusive members of the family. The winners of each of them will go to Zocarro, adding up to four places. Those who come second in each of these tournaments will fight each other to decide the final winner, who will take the fifth place available."

The level 97 dragon, in his humanoid form, like almost everyone else there, stood up while clenching his fists. "What are the requirements for the tournament?" He asked in an anxious tone.

Elen answered, so that everyone understood. "To take part in the Champions Tournament, one cannot have a history of fighting against the Stuart family. One must have already interacted with Minos Stuart, but also be loyal to the Stuart family. Their forces must be committed to contributing to the Black Plain Empire, and their cultivation must be above level 90.

The competition should have some kind of cultivation restriction, so everyone will fight at the same level. As such, everyone will fight against everyone, until the biggest winner is decided.

The competition will start in a year's time, but before that, those interested must go to Dry City to go through the stages of registering for the event.

Other than that, the tribes and forces that join the tournament must deliver concrete plans, with evidence that their forces will not be endangered by the potential departure of one of their members from the planet.

There are other minor requirements, but to find out more, you'll have to join the competition."

Each of them listened carefully to Elen's primary explanation, imagining that this would be the most competitive meeting of their world, and would surpass even the Continental Tournament.

Elen, on the other hand, couldn't help but get eager for this competition, seeing how clever Rowan had been to use something like this. At the same time as he was giving his allies the chance to benefit from the cultivation chances of a superior world, he was using it to raise the grade of loyalty and commitment of his planet's forces towards him and the empire!

'This move is brilliant. We'll be even stronger with this tournament!' She looked at the creatures talking to each other, full of anticipation for the battles some of them would fight before and during the tournament. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Before signing up for the tournament, they would surely compete within their own tribes for the chance to go to the competition for the chance to go to Zocarro!
