Another branch broke under Hao Xuan's feet. They had been walking through the foggy hills for about 10 minutes straight. The visibility was horrible and he could only see about 3 meters ahead. There was no other sound around them, not wind, not a single bug, nothing.
It was an eerie kind of silence.
"How much further is it?" Hao Xuan inquired.
Ryfon stopped and looked around. He broke off a leaf from a nearby tree and examined it carefully before throwing it away.
"Just a couple of minutes," he said before continuing.
With a sigh, Hao Xuan also followed after with heavy steps but Ryfon spoke up again not long after.
"We can talk about something if you're bored."
Hao Xuan wasn't really in a mood to chit chat but he still wanted to know a few things in detail so he decided to accept the offer.
"The tournament then. Tell me the details. Cornelia told me the history and gave a rough overview so just tell me exact details. What should I expect?"
