Severin’s curiosity was piqued after hearing Rourie’s statement. He responded slowly, “As many of us

know, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Please do share with us the details.”

Rourie proceeded to explain, “To be honest with you, Elder Severin, our family isn’t considered among

stronger ones in Nontwo City. We are not very confident of vying for a place at the sacred lake.”

the

He paused for a moment before continuing with a sigh. “The lake is open only once every twenty years.

Those who wish to participate will need to pay the Grandiuno Sect a hundred thousand spiritual stones.

Unfortunately, there’s no guarantee that we will be able to secure a place simply by making that payment.

We would still need to compete with other contenders from other families.”

Severin deduced that the Chorteaus might want him to join the tournament. At the same time, he could

not help but wonder why the Chorteaus were not that confident despite their strength. “You’re strong, and

you should be able to…”

Rourie interjected before Severin could finish his sentence, “Perhaps you are not yet aware that the quotal

is limited only to ten people. Aside from the mayor’s daughter and the level nine royal saints from the

city’s first–class families, there are at least ten unaffiliated practitioners who are also level nine royal

saints. As you can see, securing a place for my family is an almost herculean task.”

Severin finally understood why the competition was so tight. “That explains it. What do you propose we

do, then?”

Severin seemed willing to discuss it further rather than rejecting it outright. Rourie thus felt renewed hope

in his idea for cooperation. He rose from his chair and said, “I would like to ask you to fight on behalf of

the Chorteaus. It doesn’t matter how many places you can secure. We wish only to have one.”

Severin fell into contemplation rather than accepting immediately.

On the other hand, Wuhlricht and the elders beside him were elated. “Can I confirm with you that you only

want one of the spots we secure?”

They left the Skyblue Sect and came to that higher world to become a supreme saint. Securing a few

places for the sacred lake for the Chorteaus would allow them a chance at achieving that. It was only

natural for them to feel excited.

With a smile, Rourie confirmed, “Yes. We want only one place regardless of how many places Elder

Severin obtains.”

He was well aware that the Chorteaus‘ chances of securing a place at the sacred lake were slim.

However, they might be able to secure one place with Severin’s assistance as a level nine royal saint. turn, affected their share of the city’s resources and profits.

Having listened to the explanation, Severin nodded after a brief thought. “I agree.”

Severin’s definitive answer brought relief to Rourie. He smiled and said, “I look forward to our fruitful

cooperation then!”
