Chapter 1497
Sylvia was still unaware that a new group of people was already living right next to her. No one in the citadel knew that Syl Zhang of Radiant Ind and the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng had sneaked into the citadel. Its soldiers were still vigntly watching out for the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng.
Under sedo''s arrangements, Henry and others began familiarising themselves with the entire citadel.
The distribution of forces within the citadel was simple. Although it was the citadel, only one academy existed within it. To be precise, there were five academies, but the Thousand des Academy was much stronger than the other four. The other four academies followed the lead of the Thousand des Academy. All decisions were made by the Thousand des Academy. In terms of the quality of the teachers and students, the Thousand des Academy was many times more superior that the other academies.
As the leading academy in the citadel, countless talents were enrolled in it, and the teachers within it were also extraordinary experts in their respective fields. However, the size and credentials of the other four academies were not much different from the Thunder Academy. This was also the reason why the Thousand des Academy could keep being the strongest.
Besides the Thousand des Academy, there was another force called Sword Valley in the citadel. Its headquarters was not within the citadel, but it had a sword academy which branched from the Sword Valley and represented it. The sword academy would report everything that happened in the citadel to Sword Valley directly.
In addition to the Thousand des Academy and Sword Valley, the Martial King''s Mansion was also the thirdrgest force in the citadel.
The Martial King was a gifted genius who had stepped into the Supremacy Master Realm before the age of 30. Now, in the entire region of the Wanshan District, the Martial King was considered as a top expert amongst the young generations. Some said that the Martial King was at par with Aureo, but this statement had never been proven. However, a man who could get engaged to the War Goddess was definitely the best amongst the elites! There were many experts under the Martial King''s Mansion, and this was why it was able toe third among the major forces of the citadel. The Martial King was the inheritor of the previous Lord of the citadel, so he came from an extremely wealthy family background.
The powers of the small forces were not much distributed throughout the citadel. All of them relied on to either one of the three major forces. The bandits around the citadel joined their forces with the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng.
The three major forces of the citadel were not united in any way. They each had their own division of work. Take the order and safety of the citadel for example, no matter how much the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng assaulted the citadel, only the Thousand des Academy would dispatch their men to help with stopping them. The other two major forces did not care for those matters in the slightest. Even the Martial King who had was engaged to the War Goddess would not pay attention to those matters, simply leaving the War Goddess to resist the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng alone.
Compared to theplicated distribution of power in other ces, the system of the citadel was rtively simple and easy to understand.
This meeting was jointly held by the Thousand des Academy and Sword Valley. A meeting of this sort would be held once every year. The aim of it was to keep maintaining the position of Sword Valley and the Thousand des Academy in the entire Wanshan District. However, because of the emergence of Radiant Ind and the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng this year, many people believed that things were about to change.
There were only seven days left before the start of the meeting from then on.
Henry, Wade, and the others had received invitations to the meeting. At that moment, the Thousand des Academy and Sword Valley were probably lying in wait for them to enter the city after seven days.
Henry and others stayed in the citadel for three days. On the fourth day, Valentin returned with some useful news about the underground treasure of Thunder Town.
Valentin was originally responsible for assassination and gathering intelligence back in Radiant Ind. It had always been easier for him to obtain information, but even so, it still took him three days to find out about the treasure of Thunder Town, which showed how meticulous the Thousand des Academy and Sword Valley were. If it had not been for the fact that Thunder Town had caused quite an uproar, no one would have discovered anything about its treasure. Many people had heard of the treasure, but none of them knew what it really was.
Henry and his friends sat in the living room of the vi. The doors and curtains were shut tight, avoiding being heard or seen by anyone else. "Boss, the Thousand des Academy and Sword Valley n to leave for Thunder Town after the meeting."
Valentin reported the news he had obtained. "ording to what I have heard, the unearthed treasure from beneath Thunder Town has something to do with the Elite Spirit Hall, which is why Sword Valley and the Thousand des Academy hold it in particrly high regard, even if it would mean having to sacrifice the lives of the citizens of the town."
"It''s rted to the Elite Spirit Hall."
Henry smiled and said.
"That''s right."
Valentin nodded. "I''ve heard that this treasure is able to point out the direction of the Elite Spirit Hall."
"Heh heh, in the end, all they are after are the countless Battle Spirits in the Elite Spirit Hall."
Henry stood up and said, "If they want to search for it, just let them, but of course, we can''t allow them to find it that easily. As for the Elite Spirit Hall, I don''t think they can do anything even if they are sessful at finding it."
Henry had absolute confidence in the Elite Spirit Hall. With the power of all the True Spirits, Henry was fearless in the Core! Wade looked at themunication device on his wrist and said, "Boss, there are only four days left before the meeting. Regarding that kid they call the Martial King, shall we giv him a
good beating? That guy, I''ve long despised him."
Henry pulled aside the curtain of the French windows, revealing a thin slit. He squinted his eyes and looked at the detached vi not too far away from him. "Since we have already entered the city, we definitely can''t let him live life sofortably. Beating him up isn''t good enough. Let''s go find some ce to eat. We shall talk more as we eat."
Ranjeet, who had been silent for the whole time, suddenly lit up when he heard Henry say the word "eat".
Photon Hotel was a pretty famous in the citadel, its specialties were very well-known. Even Wade and the others who ruled within the mountains had heard of its name mentioned more than once.
This time, Wade and others made their way to the hotel with Henry, Ranjeet, and Yaffah.
The interior of the hotel was designed very elegantly. Soft music yed in the halls, and the diners were all seated at their tables, enjoying their dishes that came in the same amount of Three-star Michelin dishes as they whispered on.
Every one of the waiters was dressed in formal shirts and vests. They were all handsome men and beautifuldies, which was very pleasing to the
eye.
They were obviously in a high-end restaurant. In an era where people earned an average ie of about 1,800 yuan, the average dining price in it was already 1,500 yuan.
That was to say, with the monthly sry of an ordinary teacher from an academy, one would barely be able to buy a meal here. After all, the average dining price of the

Henry and others were seated at a long table with candles on it. They listened to the soothing melodies and watched Ranjeet devour the dishes meant for ten people.
"Bro, the dishes here are too small, don''t you think? It''s not even enough for a child."
Ranjeet rolled his eyes as he mocked the restaurant.
"Well, ask for 20 people''s worth of dishes then."
Henry smiled and looked around.
