The disappearance of the iconic tower of the Martial City created a stir in the City and everyone present could not believe it, a tower of that size had disappeared in minutes!
And the worst thing was that there were only 7 days left before the start of the tournament. So this happened at a bad time.
On that day both the mayor and the supreme elder of the martial city were crazy and could not believe that they were robbed of something as important as nothing, the worst was that they had no clues about the thief!
The Martial City was not in a good mood and had intentions to cancel the tournament but the other five powers did not let them, In the last six months they built a huge coliseum for the tournament and that was not cheap plus they built it in the Martial City, So they had to recover their money by collecting the tickets or otherwise the martial city would have to compensate them, which was not possible for the martial city, they did not have the monetary capacity.
So under threat, the only thing the Martial City could do was hold the tournament.
Meanwhile in a restaurant in the fourth Ring of the Martial City.
There were a couple of children along with an Elder eating several delicious dishes when they heard the murmurs of the other diners.
"You have heard that the six great geniuses of the region have arrived in the city this morning!"
"Yes, yes, I've heard it. Tournament entries seem to end in two days."
"Ahhhh how I would like to partic.i.p.ate in this tournament of the hundred regions."
"hahaha You?, Come on when you were twenty you were still in Sixth level Body Refining! and not serious nor compet.i.tion to the weakest of the six great geniuses haha"
"Hahaha" So the man was ashamed and laughed willingly.
But these words made Alexander's group raise its head and said with a little surprise: "The compet.i.tion of the generation has already started?"
Helena and Adam listened to Alexander and Helena said: "The compet.i.tion of the generation? What's that?"
Alexander spoke and said: "They are a series of tournaments made by transcendent powers in order to recruit the best geniuses of a generation".
Adam was surprised and said, "Are the transcendental powers organizing these tournaments?"
Alexander nodded. This could be considered a secret for people with his grandfather's state but in the state of his previous life, it was clear who the sponsors of these tournaments were. Adam was surprised and couldn't help but ask, "But why do you go to so much trouble to do the tournaments?"
Alexander smiled and said: "One never knows where a genius will be born, there are thousands of legends and cases of geniuses who were born in a humble environment and rose to be powerful experts"
Alexander shrugged his shoulders and said: "You know most great clans only generate useless young people, Although they have the high innate talent they are only trash because of this sects seek geniuses even in the most desolate places like these."
"Moreover, even if a genius is born in a region like this it is impossible for him to reach the gates of transcendent powers to perform a test. Because of this, tournaments can be considered as a form of recruitment for the young talents of the continent and each tournament is a different test and those who reach the end have the right to join a transcendent power."
Adam raised his eyebrows and said, "Then will all the young men of a generation enter those tournaments?"
Alexander nodded and said: "Yes, but there are many factors and they are much more complicated than you think and they are so long they are not called "One Generation Tournaments" for nothing".
Adam was surprised and said, "How long do they last?"
Alexander replied: "It depends on how long it lasts in the tournament but the final that takes place in the center of the continent takes place about a hundred years after the start of the first tournament."
This made Helena and Adam get up "ONE HUNDRED YEARS!"
Alexander was embarra.s.sed and said, "Keep it down, we're in public!"
So the two finally realized where they were and his face turned red, The three decided to pay the bill and go to a more private place to continue the conversation.
They rented a room in an inn and continued their conversation and Helena asked: "Why does it last so long?"
Alexander said calmly: "I told you that they are very complicated to explain Since each phase of the tournaments are very different while others are only direct fights one by one but if you want a general scheme It would be something like that".
"There are six regional tournaments taking place in all eight regions of the continent."
(Note: North, Northwest, West, Southwest, South, Southeast, East, Northeast)
"The first is the desolate tournament where geniuses from the weakest areas of the continent partic.i.p.ate."
"The second is the tournament of the Grade Five mortal countries, where the Elite of the desolate land and the winners of the first tournament fight."
"The third the tournament of the mortal countries grade four where the geniuses of the countries of grade five face together with the winners of the last tournament and So on until arriving at the final in the center of the continent where the best talents of the eight regions are found, In the continent that event is the second most awaited by the people".
Adam and Helena were surprised, they didn't expect this tournament to be so big and said: "But how do you decide who enters the tournaments?"
"The powers of the weakest desolate areas can only enter the first tournament and give one Token per country in that region. As for the other tournaments depends on the strength of their clan or sect, in the case of the northern states is something like: 1 token for having false cultivators of lower level, 2 token for having false cultivators of middle level, 3 token for having false cultivators of high level, 4 token for having false cultivators of higher level and in the mortal countries is very similar only that in these countries can partic.i.p.ate from one to eight young people per power depending on their strength."
(Note: Level 1-3 = Lower level. 4-6 = Intermediate level. 7- 9 = High level. Half step = Superior level and a Token is equal to a young person of your power to partic.i.p.ate)
This explanation made Adam angry and he could not help but curse: "Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds don't put the Alba family in their eyes, don't they know that our family has two false cultivators, half an elemental step?
Alexander understood why his grandfather was angry and that was that none of the powers of the region had accepted as an equal to the Alba family so this tournament was based on doubt, Whoever kept the seventh quota, The quota that should belong to the Alba family by right however the powers of the region were seeking to profit at the expense of their family.
It was obvious that they did not treat the Alba family well but did they not think that the Alba family would not take revenge?
Alexander sighed and said: "They must think that even if the Alba family has two experts half an elemental step, they are weaker than the supreme Elders, not to mention that they are outnumbered and my master would not get off on acting".
How wrong they were, The Alba family currently has an Elemental expert not including Audrey who was another Elemental expert.
These were 2 Elemental experts.
Adam now no longer felt remorse for the theft of the tower, in fact, it now seemed that they deserved it.
Adam wanted to go and wash away this humiliation but Alexander said: "Grandpa this is not all bad".
"How come it's not all bad? We've been ignored by them without a second thought."
Alexander explained: "But the people do not know, They only know that they gave seven quotas to the Region does not know how to win the quotas nor the powers explained it so that if we do something like this people can be against us because with the way in which the tournament is done today does not matter the nationality only matters that they are geniuses of the region what makes the region seem more united, That act can make us enemy of the whole region.
Adam calmed down a little and reluctantly said, "So what should we do?"
Alexander calmly said: "Change the situation in our favor".
Adam looked doubtingly at Alexander and said, "Change things in our favor?"
Alexander sat down at a desk in the room and said: "Grandpa pretending to be weak can bring us humiliation like the one we suffer today but there are also advantages, You know if we do something that with the public power that the Alba family has is unthinkable we can do with ours as we want and n.o.body will suspect us".
Alexander smiled and said, "Isn't that worth some humiliation?"
