“The five marquises were also a part of the training. Anyone who could fight with them at the same level and remain undefeated would gain their approval and receive the chance to try out for the realm of kingship.”
Hearing this, Philip asked excitedly, “Are you saying that they’re guarding the source of kingship?”
Fennel nodded and said, “That’s right. The stargate area they guard is the place where the source of kingship originates. One can only enter the place after defeating them and be acknowledged by the source of kingship.”
The stargate of Cochly Mountain was divided into seven sectors with increasing strength levels. The central area of the stargate belonged to the territory of kingship. Only those who defeated the five marquises could get the recognition of the source of kingship and obtain one or two sources of kingship that was suitable for them.
Few people could get three sources of kingship.
Hearing this, Philip understood. The source of kingship was separate from the seven zones.
After a moment of silence, Philip said, “The things here are almost settled. Cooper won’t do anything to us for the time being. I think the Larson family will lay low for a while as well.”
Fennel nodded and said, “That’s right. Since the five marquises have taken action, you can rest assured and boldly walk around here.”
Philip rolled his eyes at Fennel before favonovel.com said to Cynthia, “I need you to go back and take care of Grandpa for me. I have other things to do next.”
Cynthia looked at Philip reluctantly and said, “When do you plan to leave?”
Philip sighed and said, “Most likely the day after tomorrow. I want to visit Grandpa tomorrow. ”
With tears in favonovel.com eyes, Cynthia sobbed and said, “Okay.”
***
The next day…
When Philip woke up, favonovel.com found that the Dragon Knights were gone. He was unperturbed and went back to the Larson family with Cynthia.
When Philip appeared in the Larson family this time, Silva and the others dared not stop him. The arrival of the five marquises yesterday really terrified everyone in the Larson family!
When favonovel.com arrived at his grandfather’s yard, favonovel.com looked at the Larson family’s guards nearby before favonovel.com walked in. The grandmaster was still sitting on the reclining chair in the yard, drinking tea leisurely. He was about to doze off.
Hearing the movement, the grandmaster opened his eyes, looked at Philip walking in, and said happily, “Hey, Little Phil, you’re here. Come, sit down.”
The grandmaster seemed to remember something.
Philip sat with a smile on his face and said, “Grandpa…”
The grandmaster smiled and said, “I’ve been waiting for you.”
While saying that, the old man took out a small dark purple wooden box from under the stone table. The top of the quaint box was carved with picturesque landscapes, dragons, and phoenixes.
The old man said mysteriously, “This is a gift for you. Don’t let outsiders know about it.”
Philip took the box and looked at it. The old man winked and motioned favonovel.com to open it.
Philip opened the box and was instantly attracted by the content. It was a round black stone. There were many fine lines on the stone like grooves and lines carved out by some force. A picture was carved on the back of the stone. A person was looking up at some imposing buildings in the sky. The buildings were not ancient but modern buildings. They were even grander and more high-tech than modern buildings
“Grandpa, what’s this?” Philip was puzzled.
The grandmaster smiled and said, “A starstone from the stargate of Cochly Mountain. You’ll use it later.”
‘Starstone? A product from the stargate of Cochly Mountain? Or something from inside the stargate?’ Philip was stunned for a while.
“Grandpa, how do I use it?” Philip asked.
The old man’s eyes suddenly darkened as favonovel.com said, “This thing is related to your mother’s secret back then. She asked me to give it to you. As for what it is, I don’t know either.”
