Even in the whole of the rippling wave continent, it would be difficult to find such a talent.


    Dante got ready by putting on his favourite set of golden-ck robes and headed out to meet the Winton and Patriarch Gavin


    As he exited his room he saw multiple members of the kinsman n rushing around the ce.


    It seemed like everyone was excited for thepetition, doing all sorts ofst minuets tasks before the tournament officially started.


    On his way to meet Patriarch Gavin, Dante ran into Reba. She was wearing a bright red coloured robe with brilliant golden edgings. She had a serious aura around her as she seemed to be thinking about something.


    As she was looking around she seemed to notice Dante and waved over to him. seeing Reba''s invitation, Dante went over towards her


    "Good morning Dante. I hope you''re ready for the inter-npetition" greeted Reba


    "Of course I''m ready, after training hard I even managed to advance for my cultivation level and now I''m stronger than ever!" Said Dante


    Like that, Dante and Reba carried on with their conversation until they reached Patriarch Gavin''s personalpound.


    But as they were approaching they were greeted with a shocking sight.


    In front of the patriarchspound, there was a magnificent red carriage ordained with golden markings and the symbol of the Kinsman n, a fiery red serpent.


    But what was most interesting about the carriage were the horses drawing it. the Horses were a pair of gigantic ck Warhorses that were packed to the brim with muscles. in addition to this, the horses had a terrifying, monstrous aura around them, it was an aura he had never seen around any horses, not in his past life and not even in this life.


    As Dante was admiring the magnificent carriage he heard a voice call out to him


    "You guys finally arrived, we''ve been waiting for you for a while now."


    Looking towards the direction of the sound Dante saw Patriarch Gavin opening the carriage door.


    "If you guys had taken any longer we could have beente " continued patriarch Gavin


    "All right Dad, we heard You already so can stop whining, we''re already here now so there is no need to carry onining," said Reba


    "Okay ill stop, but hurry up and get in, we need to be leaving soon" said Patriarch Gavin.


    So Both Dante and Reba entered the carriage and what they saw did not disappoint either of them.


    The inside of the carriage was as luxurious as you would expect for a carriage that was so wondrously decorated n the outside. The inside was lined with soft padding while they were still many soft cushions littered throughout the whole of the carriage.


    As they entered they managed to spot Winton quietly sitting down meditating. He seemed to be focusing on something so they decided not to disturb him


    After they had entered Patriarch Gavin shut the door behind them and told them the driver it was fine to go.


    As they started moving Dante couldn''t help but question Patriarch Gavin on the massive horses that were pulling the carriage


    "Uncle Gavin, what''s the deal with those massive horses outside. I''ve never seen anything like them before so those can''t be regr horses right?"


    "Of course, they can''t be regr horses" responded Patriarch Gavin


    "Just looking at their size should have made it obvious. Those horses are warhorses that have been bred to be asrge and as strong as possible. On top of that, the ancestors of these horses have been interbred with magic beasts many years ago so that they have a magical beats bloodline running through them. But due to the domesticated nature of horses and the fact that they only have part of the magical beast bloodline, these horses are thousands of times easier to tame than any magical beast would ever be.


    As Patriarch Gavin was exining the history of his treasured warhorses, the carriage finally manage to leave the n and entered the main road of Brightsteel city.


    The thing that shocked Dante the most wasn''t the decorations around the city and stores.


    Instead, the thing that shocked Dante the most was the humongous crowd of people that hade out to watch thepetition. If you told Dante that the whole of Brightsteel City hade out to watch it he would actually believe you, the crowd of people was just thatrge!


    But as Dante thought more about it, the whole situation started to make more and more sense. The culture and technology of these times were quite ancient, meaning that for regr people there were actually very few means of entertainment. Sure there were ys and poems but that was something mostly enjoyed by the rich and privileged, not regr people who are working upwards of 12 hours a day just to keep food on the table.


    But the inter-npetition was different it was a rare event that only happened once every three years and on top of that, it was free!


    Fighting has always been a type of entertainment people have loved to watch, be it the diators from ancient times or even boxing and UFC of the modern-day, watching fights has always been in human nature.


    And when the people that are fighting are from the three biggest ns of the city, arguably the most powerful people they will ever see in their lives, it only makes watching these brutal fights much more satisfying to watch


    As Dante was thinking all this, his carriage slowly made its way through the overwhelming crowd
