This was the Sakurai Club, in the very heart of Sakura Capital.
Today, however, it had been completely transformed.
Not a single outside guest was allowed inside.
In just over two days, the enormous three-story club building had undergone an unimaginable transformation.
A massive display platform, a stage below it, and countless seats, tables, and chairs made up the scene.
The setup alone made it clear that the special exchange being held here this time was on quite an extraordinary scale.
And that was indeed the case.
Personnel from Sakura Capital's various agencies and countless members of its Beast Tamer security teams guarded the entire street and the area around the club.
Amid what looked like a complete lockdown, figures stepped out of arriving vehicles and aircraft, and even dismounted from pet beasts.
The long-standing order forbidding people from summoning pet beasts for transportation within the city seemed to have no binding force or purpose whatsoever for many of them.
That scene alone was enough to prove just how highly these arriving figures were regarded in Sakura Capital and Cherry Blossom Country.
The exchange began at nine in the morning.
Yet Shen Qiu and the others, including Dong Muyun, had all arrived before nine as members of the Dragon's Country Golden Society delegation.
Once they arrived, almost everyone thought the same thing: This trip was well worth it!
Only after arriving did they discover that those attending this exchange in Cherry Blossom Country included not only people from Dragon's Country, Elephant Nation, the Nation of Ten Thousand Islands, and some Beast Tamer nations on the Eastern Continent,
but even some unusual ferocious beasts.
