2951 Give it a Try
Unitten couldn't be more pleased with Roan's answer. "That is a very wise decision. No wonder you are so good with your head. No doubt my Lincae Sect is the best place for you, and you understood it immediately."
Roan nodded at the old man. "I was already thinking about joining you, and after today, I'm even more sure about it. Although the disciples I played against couldn't beat me, they showed proper knowledge of warfare. Some of them even forced me to take them seriously in some of the turns. If the young ones are already good, I can only imagine how the much older and experienced cultivators from the Lincae Sect are."
"That's exactly my point," Unitten agreed with him. "Now then, go ahead and make your wish to the queen. Once the festival is over, come and meet me here in the palace. I'll bring you back with us."
Roan had no complaints. "Very well."
Rean and Roan weren't the only ones the experts from the fourteen regions were interested in. Some of them also came down and extended offers to the other youngsters who ended with a tag. The only exception was Foliana, the history girl. In the end, the fourteen regions didn't put much importance in the past, especially in the past of such a broad term like the entire Universe. They barely ever go out of the country, so it didn't matter much to them. Not to mention, they all checked her body, cultivation, and bones with their Spiritual Senses. Foliana was anything but a talented individual. She was only in the Middle Stage of the Foundation Establishment, a terrible progress considering her age. Foliana's expression didn't change at all, though. She was already used to it anyway.
Finally, the leaders of the fourteen regions said their pieces and recruited who they could. Amelia, the queen, then waved for them to go back to their seats before getting up to speak. "Now then, tell me your wishes. Just remember, I'm not omnipotent, so don't ask for anything ridiculous."
One of the winners immediately stepped forward and kneeled. "I wish to join the Royal Family Core Disciples!"
No one felt surprised by that request. It was widely known that the Royal Family received the best resources, let alone a core disciple. Not even the leaders of the fourteen regions found it strange. If anything, they welcomed that request in case it was someone from their side. After all, they could have someone they know inside the Royal Family's inner circle.
Amelia immediately nodded. Such a request wasn't difficult. "Karev, see that he is integrated into the Royal Family subjects."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Karev quickly accepted the order.

Amelia warned the youngster, though. "Remember, even Core Disciples of my Royal Family need to go through rigorous tests to keep their position as Core Disciples. You will be no different. If you fail, you will demoted to an Inner Disciples or even an outer disciple. I hope you won't regret it."
"I'm aware," the guy spoke with conviction. He was a genius from where he came, so he was confident in his abilities.
There were another three participants who asked for the same treatment. Every time the festival happened, you would see them making that request. Many famous characters came from the Royal Family Core Disciples, and they all wished the same.
Rean, Roan, and Foliana, as the only ones to hold their platforms from beginning to end, were left for last. Foliana was the first of the three to step forward to make her request. "I wish to have access to the forbidden library database of the Royal Family and all other Royal Families that came before the Rusbavs."
Amelia narrowed her eyes in response. Many secrets were left behind in history that shouldn't see the light of the day, so they were kept in the forbidden library database. The general history that was used in the contest obviously had nothing regarding these secrets. "What are you planning?"
Foliana answered as if stating a fact. "According to my research, Rusbav Country, or whatever name it had before the Rusbavs, was connected to my own family. I'm on a journey to find more about them, and I believe I can find more answers in the forbidden library."
Amelia looked deeply into Foliana's eyes while thinking about it. The request wasn't hard to fulfill, but it was dangerous. However, in the end, she faintly smiled and nodded. "Very well. However, you will have your memories of what you saw sealed for security measures. Are you willing to accept this condition?"
"I am willing!" Foliana spoke straight away.
"Then it shall be done," Amelia decided. "Karev, see that it is done."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Karev once again accepted the orders.
Finally, it was Rean and Roan's time. Since both of them were here, they have two wishes they can ask for. Roan was the first one to come forward. "I would like access to the alchemy database of the Rusbav Royal Family, including all herbs, materials, and concoction recipes."
Amelia was a little surprised. "I didn't know you were interested in alchemy. Why did you select the Battlefield Board then?"
"Because I'm good at it," Roan answered as if he was answering an idiotic question. Didn't he win all the matches till the end? That should be reason enough for him to have selected that category.
Amelia's mouth twitched. It wasn't every day that someone acted that brazenly in front of her. "This little boy has guts, I'll tell you that. Very well, Karev here will see that you have full access to the alchemy database."
"Thank you," Roan nodded and stepped back. If Salite Herb existed in this country or somewhere else, the database should have information about it.
Last but not least, it was Rean's time to make his wish. They came for the Database, and now they got it. So, what else would they request? 'Should I ask for the Enchanted Moon Gel?'
'No,' Roan shook his head. 'We will get it during the auction, so asking for it now would be a waste of a wish.'
Rean agreed. 'Then... Dragon or Dragon kin Blood?'
Roan pondered a bit. 'Perhaps... give it a try and see if they can provide it.'
And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
