"It is said that quite a few talents have emerged in this continental competition—many who were never even heard of before," remarked a middle-aged man dressed in brocade. He stroked his short beard as he spoke.
"Indeed," replied someone who had been observing the City Lord of the Holy Capital’s inscrutable smile. Eager to flatter the man, he immediately seized upon the topic of the young girl the City Lord had been personally raising for sixteen years. "I know that girl. For someone so young to secure one of the only three spots from the Holy Source Continent is truly remarkable."
"The Holy Source Continent is a breeding ground for talent," another chimed in. "It’s not just the City Lord’s foster daughter; the King of the Holy Dragon Kingdom has also been raising a foster son. I hear he’s quite exceptional, capable of rivaling the City Lord's ward." After praising the City Lord, this man turned his attention to the King of the Holy Dragon Kingdom, currently the highest-ranking figure present. Since the Heavenly Dao Divine Continent had only sent one representative and no elders were there to observe, it was far more practical to curry favor with the powerful leaders actually in attendance.
