"Apparently he won the scholarship competition of the Royal Family. Since the Princess was pleased with his performance, she gave him this token. This is the only reason someone like him can afford to stay in this place," the guard informed the General.

"Two booms," Long Chen replied.
"Only two?" Western General exclaimed, smiling wryly. "That's all? That's your performance that stunned her?"
"She said it was because I was able to cause two booms despite coming from a poor background with no resources to cultivate," Long Chen explained.
"Ah, that's true. I forgot this test was for poor people of the Empire. So two booms aren't that bad," the Western General nodded as he returned the ring to Long Chen.
" Where are you actually from?" Western General asked.
