Chapter 251: Army of Undead

"What is the Knight Tournament then?" Gabriel asked Yuan. 

He didn't know much about the Arecia Empire other than the fact that the Empire was stronger than the Yan Empire. Moreover, based on the name of the tournament, it really did sound like a battle tournament for knights. Was that not the case?

"You really aren't from around here, are you?" Yuan smiled wryly. "As I said before, the Knight Tournament is something in which everyone can take part in. Even mages who aren't Knights..."

"Is this for selection in the Sacred Knight Academy?" Gabriel inquired. If this wasn't a simple battle tournament, he could only guess that it was a selection exam for the Academy of Knights. 

Just like the Lumen Empire had the Academy of Elements, the Arecia Empire had the Sacred Knight Academy, which trained Knights. Even though the Knight Academy was considered weaker than the Academy of Elements as a whole, it was still very powerful.
