….

On the other side, at the Great East Hibiscus City.

Darryl and Jewel were sleeping in an inn when a clamor of gongs and drums could be heard coming from outside.

Darryl abruptly woke up and rolled around on the floor before covering himself under his blanket as he could still

hear the commotion.

As Jewel and he shared a room, Jewel would of course sleep on the bed and him on the floor.

“Why is it so noisy outside?” Jewel asked before immediately headed to the window and looked out.

“Darryl, come quick!” Jewel suddenly lost all her grogginess and became as excited as a small child.

The streets below were bustling with a huge crowd of people.

Vendors were yelling on both sides of the streets. Some were selling candies, some cakes while others lanterns. It

was a lively affair.

“It’s so lively! Let’s have a look!” Jewel laughed and dragged Darryl downstairs.

Darryl was still groggy but was totally helpless from being pulled along by Jewel.

He could not help but ask the waiter that he met downstairs, “Why is it so lively outside?”

The waiter smiled and said, “Both of you must not be from around here? Today is the Poetry League which was held

once every three years!”

At that, Jewel immediately clapped her hands, smiled at Darryl, and said, “Yes, yes, yes! I remembered! The

Artemis Sect holds the Poetry League once every three years. This year’s Poetry League is held at Hibiscus City.

We’re so lucky! The Poetry League brings a huge crowd over! Would you please go together with me to have a

look?”

Darryl smiled bitterly as he rubbed his sleepy eyes. Ok, let’s have a look.”

Jewel cheered and quickly ran out of the inn.

The entire streets were extremely lively, crowded, and filled with people. Almost the entire Hibiscus City’s townsfolk

were there.

Jewel held Darryl’s hand and walked in the crowd’s direction.

The streets were packed due to the Poetry League attracting a lot of visitors with people from neighboring towns

joining the affair too.

The huge number of visitors the Poetry League attracted was a great opportunity for the vendors to earn some

cash. The streets were mesmerizing and lively filled with assorted stalls and vendors which sold food, toys, and

even lanterns!

Jewel has never been so happy her entire life as she stopped to look at every stall.

The deeper they headed in, the livelier it became as waves of shouts came and went.

“Delicious candies!

“Sweet and sticky candies!”

Darryl walked along and his mood turned somewhat pleasant from feeling the crowd’s liveliness.

After walking for almost an hour, they finally came to the most crowded area. Darryl could see there were close to

a hundred thousand people in his immediate vicinity!

“There are so many people! Let’s go have a look!” Jewel pulled Darryl and waded through the crowd. At the end of

the crowd was a huge stage.

A gigantic stone pillar was situated on the stage which wrote, ‘The Poetry League-meeting friends through poetry!

A tall lady stood in the middle of the stage with a mic in her hand. She smiled and said, “Everyone! Who could

create the best poem?”

Jewel tugged on Darryl’s hand and gently said, “The Poetry League is held once every three years by the Artemis

Sect. Every Poetry League will attract scholars and literati from all over. They would then compete in the Poetry

League and whoever wins will receive the Gifted Hibiscus Scholar title.

The Gifted Hibiscus Scholar?

Darryl could not help but laugh at that. “What’s the use of that title?”

Jewel shook her head. “I have no idea what usefulness that title brings, but it’s still rather prestigious!”
