This time, Zhang Tie increased his flying speed slightly and reached the skies above Tigerhold City from Golden Light City in just over twenty minutes.
Among the original eight cities of Huaiyuan Hall, the city built by the Yiyang City branch in Sun River Prefecture was Tigerhold City.
Geographically speaking, Tigerhold City bore some resemblance to the old Yiyang City. Both stood by the sea and possessed the strength for maritime trade. The old Yiyang City had Yiyang Mountain at its back, while present-day Tigerhold City lay cradled in the embrace of Tiger-Embracing Mountain. Though Tigerhold City had not been founded for long, its potential for development far surpassed that of Yiyang City. The conditions at Tigerhold Harbor were also better than those of the old Yiyang Port. From this alone, one could see the effort Huaiyuan Hall had poured into this place.
The coastal region east of You Province was mountainous. Tigerhold Harbor was one of You Province's two great seaports. Besides conducting maritime trade with the coastal provinces within Great Xia, these two great ports of You Province also served as vital port hubs linking Great Xia with the Morning Mulberry Subcontinent to the northeast of the Eastern Continent, enjoying a unique geographic advantage—connecting north and south, linking Morning Mulberry. These eight words were a true portrayal of Tigerhold Harbor's role and the foundation of its prosperity.
