My Waste Husband novel 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 Island and the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng had sneaked into the citadel. Its soldiers were still vigilantly watching out for the Seven Protectors of Mountain Heng.

Under Plasedo'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 Blades Academy was much stronger than the other four. The other four academies followed the lead of the Thousand Blades Academy. All decisions were made by the Thousand Blades Academy. In terms of the quality of the teachers and students, the Thousand Blades 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 Blades Academy could keep being the strongest.

Besides the Thousand Blades 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 Blades Academy and Sword Valley, the Martial King's Mansion was also the third largest 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 to come 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 Blades 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 the complicated distribution of power in other places, the system of the citadel was relatively simple and easy to understand.

This meeting was jointly held by the Thousand Blades 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 Blades Academy in the entire Wanshan District. However, because of the emergence of Radiant Island 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 Blades 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 Island. 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 Blades 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 villa. The doors and curtains were shut tight, avoiding being heard or seen by anyone else.

"Boss, the Thousand Blades Academy and Sword Valley plan to leave for Thunder Town after the meeting."

Valentin reported the news he had obtained. "According 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 Blades Academy hold it in particularly high regard, even if it would mean having to sacrifice the lives of the citizens of the town."

"It's related to the Elite Spirit Hall."
