"The event has been announced! Today's competition is 'Chariot'! I'm sure you've all seen the 'Chariot' stretching right across Crocus!" Chapati explained loudly. "The premise is simple. In short, it's a race held atop the 'Chariot'! But this is no ordinary footrace! The selected contestants must race across this connected chain of 'Chariots'! If they accidentally fall off, they'll be disqualified immediately! The starting line is outside the city, and the finish line is right here in the Grand Magic Games arena, Domus Flau!"

"There's no rule stating that a person can only compete once. Normally, nobody has enough magic power and energy to sustain themselves through several consecutive events. Besides, to achieve better results and go further in the Grand Magic Games, almost every competing guild tries to conserve each contestant's strength
