Chapter 274: Xiumeng City

While Bai Rouyun kept contemplating the problem at hand, and the memories she had of the Shitian Tower, the carriage came before the city gates.

The queue was long but due to the sheer size of the gates, a large number of travelers could enter at any time. The only reason for the queue to have grown this unmanageable was due to the contest that was set to be held at the city's affiliated academy soon.

The two most prominent academies in the continent were the Holy Dragon Institute and the Cloudsoar Imperial Academy. The two schools had been at odds with one another since their creation and they were also located in the two most powerful empires within the continent that constantly tried to find the other's weakness.

The tournament was placed in a border city between the two empires. This border city was special, as it did not actually belong to either of the kingdoms, but had its own reputation, and was known as a heaven for cultivators.
