Apart from territorial expansion, the Republic of Northwest had not had any major incidents in recent years.
This was not surprising. The Republic of Northwest was located at the border, had a strong national power, and its own system was quite stable. Such a strong country, not to mention 10 years, even 20 or 30 years would not be enough for anything major to happen.
In this world, wars often broke out between countries, but no matter what kind of army they had, they could not cross such a long distance to attack the Republic of Northwest.
As for the neighboring countries, to the east of the Republic of Northwest was a steep barren mountain range. This mountain range was almost impossible to climb and could only be crossed by a few canyons. Even if they passed through the canyons, the other side was either the vast Gobi Desert or the snowy plains. Neither was suitable for marching.
Further east of the Gobi Desert and the snowy plains was the "Western Desert" of the Orc Empire. That was the province with the weakest rule of the Orc Empire. The governor of the Western Desert would be thankful if others did not find trouble with them. Why would they find trouble with the Republic of Northwest?
As for the north and west of the Republic of Northwest, they were both vast seas. There were civilizations in the sea, such as mermaids in the distant sea and murlocs in the coastal sea. However, the boss behind the Republic of Northwest, His Majesty the Void Mask, was the guide of the Goddess of Ocean. He was roughly equivalent to a master or adoptive father. Unless water was in their heads, the Sea Races would never dare to find trouble with the Republic of Northwest.
Of course, it would not be easy to find them, because they did not have any coastal cities at all. Even if they set off from Void City, which was closest to the sea, and walked straight to the nearest coast, it would still be more than 1,300 miles away. Such a long distance was really an insurmountable chasm for the Sea Races.
The only "close border" of the Republic of Northwest was the Commonwealth of Gold Coins in the south. However, the Commonwealth of Gold Coins itself was not a strong country, and the merchant party bordering the Republic of Northwest was relatively weak in the Commonwealth of Gold Coins. In addition, due to the disaster relief in the past … Now many cities in the north of the Commonwealth of Gold Coins were discussing whether to join the Republic of Northwest. Even in the parliament of the merchant party, there had been more than one such proposal. If this country would find trouble with the Republic of Northwest, those who thought so should definitely go to basic politics classes first — strengthen their memory of common political knowledge by getting their palms smacked by the teacher with a wooden plank.
Since the neighboring countries would not do anything to harm the Republic of Northwest, and the Republic of Northwest itself was very safe, of course, there would not be anything special that was worth mentioning.
As for the Number One World Martial Arts Tournament that was held once every ten years and the celebration of the founding of the nation, those were all routine official duties and were nothing special to talk about.
Sui Xiong nodded lightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "Who is the champion of this year's World Number One Martial Arts Competition?"
Wall immediately said the name of a veteran strongman. Sui Xiong was surprised and asked, "I remember that he had already participated in the first World Number One Martial Arts Competition, right?"
"That's right, but he was still young at that time, and his grades were only average." Wall replied, "Later on, he participated in every Number One Martial Arts Tournament, and his results continued to rise. In the end, he won first place in this tournament."
"… This person is really inspirational."
"Yes, he has already been conferred a title in his hometown, becoming a baron. I think that as long as he can put his perseverance and passion in practicing martial arts into the construction of his territory, maybe his territory will also develop into a world-class one. "
At this point, Wall suddenly thought of something and said with great interest, "Oh right, in this year's Martial Arts Tournament, there's a dark horse that has emerged!"
"Dark horse? Who? "
"Fira Kenji." Wall was afraid that Sui Xiong did not know this person, so he explained, "He is a native of the Republic of Northwest, a first-generation immigrant, a half-orc of the pig race. He used to be a cook. Later on, when he joined the joint exploration team and helped the Commonwealth of Gold Coins to explore a silver mine, he happened to pick up an ancient adventurer's relic when he was helping to transport something. It was a magic ring. "
"Ring?" Sui Xiong was a little curious, and subconsciously remembered some novels he had read before he transmigrated. "Could it be that the soul of an ancient legendary mage is hidden in that ring?"
"Eh?! Your Majesty, you know. "
"… No, I don't know." The corner of Sui Xiong's mouth twitched, and he replied calmly, "Go on."
Wall looked at Sui Xiong's changing expression with some curiosity, and continued to say, "There is an ancient legendary mage who died many years ago in that ring. He tried to use the method of teaching magic to steal his body and resurrect himself."
"Did he fail?" Sui Xiong asked.
"Yes, he failed," Wall said. "Fira's friend, Hope Wilder, saw through the ancient mage's plot, and instead beat him at his own game. With the power of modern magic, he let Fira devour the ancient mage's soul. Thus, Fira was reborn, and he quickly grew into an excellent mage. He has been focusing on combining the concept of magic and 'eating', and with the help of 'Gourmet' Miramon and 'Hygienist' Mado Kong, he finally created a special magic system that he named 'Green Magic' — this magic system uses eating certain monsters to learn the magic abilities of the monsters themselves, and it is very wonderful. "
"In other words, he achieved excellent results in the World First Martial Arts Competition by relying on this wonderful magic and winning by surprise?"
"Yes, with his real strength, to be honest, it is really not easy for him to enter the top four of the World First Martial Arts Competition." Wall nodded. "But for him, it is not important whether he can enter the top four or not. The reason why he participated in the World First Martial Arts Competition was actually to seek revenge. "
"Revenge?"
"Yes, he has a grudge against Ruby Siliu, the instructor of the exploration team of the Ministry of Mines. He suffered a lot in the past, and he has never forgotten it. This time, Ruby Siliu also participated in the World First Martial Arts Competition, and he said that he would definitely achieve good results. After Fira learned about it, he hurried to register, and he succeeded almost one minute before the registration deadline. "
Wall paused, and then said, "Fira was not very lucky. In order to fight with Ruby, he had to fight all the way to the top eight. After that, every match he fought was very difficult. On the contrary, the last match against Ruby was quite easy. After defeating Ruby and entering the top four, he actually gave up … "
Sui Xiong could not help but laugh. "He is also an interesting person!"
