"My sister is an honorable woman. Although she supports me, her decisions will always be fair and will not be partial towards me. If she thinks I am not capable enough, then she will not help me ascend to the throne. Therefore, I have to rely on myself. My sister told me you would stay in the Timber Deity Empire for some time. You can help me while you're here." Woods became excited. He could make use of Rocky's help before he returned to the Holy Dragon Empire. He trusted Rocky, and he believed that Rocky could aid in his career.
"All right." Rocky agreed. Anyway, he also needed Woods to help him. So, it would be a fair deal.
Together, they got on the carriage and left.
Along the way, Rocky explained his plan to Woods. It was brief, but Woods was clever enough to see the big picture right away. He saw through Rocky's plan and discerned his grand ambition hidden in the plan. He knew that if his plan succeeded, it would shake the Wild Spirit Land, and Rocky would have an unimaginable influence over the entire land.
"So you want me to help you secretly?" Woods asked as he understood the meaning behind Rocky's words.
"Yes. With your help, this plan will be carried out smoothly. The sooner we carry out the plan, the better," Rocky replied.
"Sure! I'm in!" Without thinking about it, Woods agreed to help Rocky. He was convinced that if Rocky's plan succeeded, it would boost his chance in ascending to the throne. Rocky was right. He would benefit greatly from his plan.
"As for the details, I will just write it down and give it to you later. Once I return to the Holy Dragon Empire, make sure you do everything as planned. Be careful, we cannot afford to make a mistake," Rocky continued.
Woods nodded his head in agreement.
Before long, the carriage finally arrived at the north side of the capital. It passed through the high walls that extended from west to the east and halted at a magnificent round building that looked like a giant arena. A boisterous noise was coming from the inside.
The royal family of the Timber Deity Empire considered beast fighting as their favorite pastime. They took pleasure from watching it and would squander a huge amount of money gambling on it. Many royal members including princes were obsessed with the game.
Today's beast fighting competition was hosted by the royal family. As Rocky and Woods entered the beast arena, they saw several princes, including Geoffrey. Together with his trusted subordinates, he was seated at the exclusive area of the viewing platform. They were surrounded by beautiful women and were being served sumptuous food and expensive wines.
Several members and spirit manipulators of the royal family were on the viewing platform. The entire platform was suddenly filled with frenzy as the crowd cheered in excitement.
The appearance of Woods and Rocky quickly caught the attention of many people. They were both familiar to the crowd, and soon someone recognized Rocky as the mysterious beast master of the Cao Clan.
People from the audience whispered among themselves, and soon everyone in the arena had their eyes on Woods and Rocky.
The crowd wondered why Rocky and Woods came to the arena together. The arena was suddenly abuzz with speculations and it made the princes unhappy. For them, if the mysterious beast master of the Cao Clan was with Woods, it meant that the Cao Clan was also connected with Woods.
As everyone watched, Woods took Rocky to meet his brothers one by one. The princes smiled and pretended they were happy and excited to meet Rocky.
Before long, Woods and Rocky sat in an exclusive area as an assembly of beautiful women came to serve them.
