Kapitel 26: Tournament Part 1
The streets on the imperial capital of Divine Dragon Empire was crowded, the people were all busy. People were running back and forth, some were even busy decorating the streets with the empires flag. Yamamoto who was walking on the busy street called out to a young man.
"Young man I just notice that everyone is in a rush. What is going on?" said Yamamoto
"Senior it seems you are not from here because you don't know what occasion today is. Today the Two of the 'Three Great Generals' would successfully return after their victory in the war against our neighboring empire, the 'Nine Profound Empire'. With the combined effort of the 'Hundred Swords General' and the Thunder Frost General, they successfully defeated the enemy army. It is also said that they even battled against 'Black Lion General' the number three general of the Nine Profound Empire and defeated him, making the enemy general retreat with his tail tuck between his legs." the man said as his face was full of admiration and respect.
"Thank you, young man," Yamamoto said as he leaves the man currently occupy in his own dream.
Yamamoto continues his walk in the bustling streets of the capital until he reaches the town square. In there was a large battle arena, people were line up as they enter the large arena. As Yamamoto went inside thousands of people were sitting as they wait for something.
Minutes later the people started to cheer and shout as they look, clap and stomp their feet as they saw the incoming figures. Leading them was a male and a female wearing a set of armor. The male was wearing a golden armor with red cape in his back, he was carrying a golden sword with dragon engraving on its blade. He gave the feeling of a rightful person.
The female was wearing a set of blue armor with black skirt. She has a beautiful and proud look, She has a rapier hanging on her waist.
They were the two of the 'Three Great General' of the Divine Dragon Empire. Jin Tian knew as the 'Hundred-Swords General' and Lei Shuang the 'Thunder Frost General. The both of them sat beside each other as they look at the crowd shouting their name.
"His Majesty the Emperor the crown prince and the second prince has arrived. Accompanying them was the 'Crimson General' General Xie" a soldier shouted as he kneels.
The crowd stop their shouting and kneel to the ground they all shouted simultaneously,
"We greet His Majesty the Emperor"
"We greet the Crown Prince"
"We greet the Second Prince"
The emperor looks at the crowd and said with a smile, "all of you stand up." Then look at his two generals and said,
"General Jin and General Lei the both of you give your all on the war against the 'Nine Profound Empire' you even seriously wounded their general. For what you did to the empire, I emperor Long Liu thank you deeply." the emperor said as he looks at his two generals with respect.
"We just do what we are supposed to do your majesty," said General Jin.
"Your majesty need not thank us, because we need to protect our empire and the citizens against those bastards." General Lei said.
"Still allow me to thank you again for protecting my Empire," the emperor said as he signals his guards.
A group of soldiers came in carrying two boxes of gold and arrived at the front of the two generals.
"General Jin and General Lei this is just one of the present I have prepared for the both of you. Later go to the palace and meet me, I will give the other presents there" the emperor said.
"We thank his majesty" the two of them said as they kneel.
The emperor look at his people and said in a loud voice, "My people as you know we are at war at our neighboring empire the 'Nine Profound Empire' for almost a hundred years. They are aiming to take our land from our family. Those beasts want to make our family, our friends and our people as their slaves."
The emperor take a deep breath and continue, "But fortunately our generals here are able to stop them for now, the reason they were able to stop the enemy general was because they underestimated our power, they thought that we would be easily conquered like they do to other kingdoms and empires. But I know, the next time they attack they would be much more careful, decisive and ruthless. Luckily for us that it is the 'Black Lion General' was leading their army when they went to war. If their number one general was to lead their army, sadly to say but even if our 'Three Great Generals' were to battle him together, they will surely lose. So today aside from celebrating our victory against the empire, we would also hold a tournament today."
"Everyone can participate in this tournament, whether you are a senior or a junior you can join this competition. There are no rules in this competition, you can do whatever you want to your opponent. Those who want to join just need to enter the arena and shout your name and the name of the one you want to challenge. The audience could also challenge whoever they wanted to fight. I will announce the prize after the final battle was over. That's all."
A commotion started as soon as the emperor finish what he's saying, people from the empire and from different sects from the empire started discussing among themselves. Yamamoto was just watching all of them as he was sitting while holding his cane with both hands.
Swiftly a middle aged man landed at the platform, he has a white hair tied in a bun and a sword in his hand. He directed his gaze at a certain area in the audience and said in a determined voice,
"Xia Yunba challenges Xia Peng from the Sacred Mountain"
The looks on the faces of the sacred mountain people were full of confusion, they know that the two of them were brothers. Xia Yunba as the youngest and Xia Peng as the oldest, but there are no enmity between the two, that is why they were baffled by the challenge of the younger one.
Xia Peng who was an old man wearing a green robe look at his brother below and lightly said, "Younger brother why did you wish to challenge me, you know to yourself that you cannot hope to beat me. So why cause all of this?"
"Elder brother the battle has still not started so don't tell me that I cannot defeat you. So come down here and see whether I can defeat you or not" Xia Yunba said.
*Swisshh* *Boom*
As fast as the wind and as hard as the rock, Xia Peng jumped down the platform creating cracks around the arena. Several white cloaked man appear and create a barrier around the platform. To prevent the audience getting hurt from some unexpected scenario.
