Chapter 135 - Greed

Despite the usual focus on the contest, many visitors had come to gawk at the roped off area where the air was visibly distorted like a Ruin.  Many had assumed it was a Ruin until their elders informed them, or the guards had, that it was actually a failure called folded space.

It was further rumored that it was a brutal place on the other side that was barely holding its stability but the guards assured they were close to breaking the nexus that anchored the connection to Cimmeria.

Since there was no sign of the border destabilizing nor Qi flowing violently as times passed, most moved on, but a few experts expressed their concern when they learned how old the folded space was.  Even so, all authorities reassured them that there was a final solution that would be implemented before the contest began.

As more powers arrived, the words spread but now only days remained yet no sign of the final solution was being done.
