章 901: Avalanche

Time flew quickly, and Khan struggled to keep track of it among his many occupations.

The tournament was reaching its apex, and some representatives had even started disclosing their interest in specific descendants, triggering public auctions that entertained the arena for days.

That development could bring problems, but Khan realized he had overestimated the descendants' desire to retain political freedom. No one rejected the nobles' desire to bolster their ranks with promising soldiers. The involved young contestants saw the auctions as a great honor, making most of Khan's precautions and rules pointless.

As disappointing as that looked, Khan couldn't help but accept and focus on the development's positive sides. The poorer families remained loyal to their regressive mindset and couldn't even consider opposing the nobles. However, that also prevented problems, saving Khan from the need to intervene to handle them.
