Chapter 139
The sky was clear and bright, its azure canopy like a deep ocean reflected above, stretching endlessly toward the horizon. It encompassed undulating mountains beneath, forests deep as indigo, and majestic classical castles sprawling through the verdant woodlands.
Frost had not fully melted, leaving streaks of white across the land. Despite being June, the northern Roland Kingdom felt like early spring.
In terms of national strength, Roland Kingdom was merely a third-rate small country. However, in the realm of arts and culture, this nation, renowned as the Country of Arts, held a special position throughout Blue Star.
As Blue Star’s most art-and-elegance-revering nation, it gathered the world’s most prestigious music schools and various other art academies. Countless artistic powerhouses emerged from here.
The “Moonlight Temple,” symbolizing the highest hall of arts, was located in Roland Kingdom’s capital. Innumerable artistic medals originated here, including the “Silver Moon Medal” – the highest honor all Blue Star artists dreamed of.
Even beyond medals and awards, simply having the opportunity to hold a personal concert or private exhibition at the Moonlight Temple was a lifelong wish for countless artists.
–This meant they had been recognized as supreme among their peers – from then on, their fame would spread throughout the world.
Someone had once conducted a rather pointless survey that concluded: Roland Kingdom citizens, immersed in art since childhood, surpassed all other Blue Star nations in average artistic cultivation and achievement.
–This became a point of pride for Roland Kingdom – at least in this field, they had beaten countries with stronger economies, more advanced technology, and greater national power.
