Lea felt her head throb as she looked at the ballooning requests that were flooding into them. Her 2 companions were just as slack jawed as her about it!
What was going on?
They had watched the contest and indeed confirmed no malicious intent. In fact, Lind Frey was quite generous even to those eliminated.
What none of the Advisory Council had anticipated was the elimination round sparking a poaching war!
Floating Isle powers wanted to pick up disciples from weaker ones and also snatch up lower world contestants as well!
The stunning number from the grade 3 elimination round was shockingly up to 20,000 jade slips and innumerable scrolls!
It was well over 4 to 5 times the number of participants!
While they knew there was a legitimate reason to have their guild keep the competition civil and prevent issues of greater powers trying to snatch up promising seeds without starting a war, but what in the cursed spirits was all of that?!
