Chapter 68 - 76th Cultivation Fair Battle Tournament

Complete silence prevailed over that place. While people were gossiping and murmuring among them, a sound came *flash* it was the sound of the profile spotlighting focused on the centre of the fighting arena.

A black figure was visible on the stage, but due to excessive light falling on him, no one of them could see his face. The figure on the stage raised his hand, snapped his finger, and said, "Let's the show begin, YO!!!"

Abruptly all the lights that were turned off earlier began to glow again, and all the lights were focused on the figure on the stage. Aryan was getting a feeling that he has seen and heard this person, and that too recently, but couldn't remember when and where.

The figure on the stage introduced himself as the commentator, referee, and the doctor assigned for all the fights.

"Yo-Yo!! Peeps sitting with their asses down, let me remind you the rules again in short, cause I know nobody here has read those 10k words essay, I included. So without any ado lets rock!!"

Listening to his commentary, the people in the platform were getting hyped up. They already have a cool commentator, all they need now is a match before them.

The figure on the fighting arena shouted again, "Hey Yo, lazy management, on the screen please."

Out of nowhere, a blue screen materialized on top of the arena mentioning all the prizes for the top 3 rankers as follows.

"Ehhh… We are giving them cards as reward trophy?"

"Fufufu, Lil Aryan they are not any normal card, they are the Aizawas's special cards, only the household members of your family and some other higher-ups and officials under your family have it."

"Okay… But I can't think anything about them, they are nothing more than a small card."

"Lil boy, Lil boy, how can you be some clueless, remind me later I will show you its feature."

Aryan agreed on her proposal and diverted his attention back to the arena. All the viewers seated there were making cheering sounds and asking about the rules. And the person in the middle of the arena was answering them one by one.

Viewer 1 "Sir, how will the match proceed, I mean like a single-elimination or a double elimination or something else?"

"Nice question lad. It will follow the single-elimination route. Two peeps will fight in zone A, two peeps will fight in zone B. Winners of the respective zones will fight the winner of another zone. Let's say in zone A no.1 and no.2 fought and no.2 won and in Zone B no.3 and no.4 fought and no.3 won, then in the next fight no.2 and no.3 will fight. Is that clear to you, Yo?!!" shouted the figure standing on the arena.

"What are the rules and penalties of the match?" asked another viewer.

"Nice question, Yo!! I am the rules and I will choose the penalty."

Silence~~

Utter silence prevailed throughout the platform. 'Just what kind of rule is that?' When everybody was busy wrecking their brain, one of the front row spectators yelled, "Oh Damn, it's Sir Jean. He's here. Sir Jean's here."

All the eyes were focused on the stage. Everyone had a shocked look on their faces, Aryan and Yoshino included.

Aryan was surprised as always, nothing new for him, but in Yoshino's case, it was something different. Sir Jean is none other than the Eastern Country Head, Aditya's best buddy, and the person who gifted Aryan the 7th Generation CLU series Gaming Capsule. (E/N: Hey, that's me :D)

Looking at Yoshino's reaction to his name, he understood that Yoshino knows him. He was just waiting for the right time to ask the question. But before he does that, Yoshino broke out the ice and started telling him about Sir Jean. "Lil Aryan, I know what will you ask next, so cutting the chase, let me tell you about him."

"Hmm..."

"Do you remember the person that came on your birthday and said I won't wish you old man have been doing it since I am young?"

"Ahh… Yes, Now I remember. He introduced himself as Eastern Countries head."

"Yes, the same person."

"I see, that's why I felt like I have seen him somewhere. By the way, what's he doing here? Being a country head comes with many responsibilities and he is here goofing around."

"Fufu, I think its time for beta testing."

"Beta testing?! What's that?"

"You already know that your dad is a researcher and he makes cool invention from time to time."

"Yes, I know."

"And those cool inventions needed to be tested before releasing them into the market."

"Yes, it's obvious to do the final testing of a product before releasing them, so what's about it?"

"And that person standing over there always do that final testing."

"What?!" exclaimed Aryan. Because a country head is a symbol of power and status, and the person before him is the head of more than one country.

'How come he is here to do testing for dad's new invention?!!' Aryan pondered.

"How come he is here to do testing for your dad's invention. You are thinking that right?" she asked with a smug on her face.

"..."

"No need to worry Lil boy, I am not reading your mind. It's the common question that everybody has in mind when they found out the reason for his visit."

"I see."

"By the way do you know where was the Kalinga Palace was located five years ago?"

Aryan pondered for a while before answering, "Some magical space created by gramps I think."

"Yes, you are right and that magical space was just above his house."

"What the…..?!"

"Hehehe no need to be surprised. Both of them are childhood buddies, so when you gramps decided to make one new place for the mansion his father invited us to make it just above his house."

Aryan remained silent for a while to imagine the scenario of the gigantic Kalinga Palace floating on top of a small house.. "Cough, won't that overshadow their tiny house?" Aryan asked in confusion.
