Chapter 143: My Ex Husband's Ex is Stealing My Son!

Established during a peace treaty between the Great Blood Empire and the Holy Balmaria, the Game of Muk'Bal was no doubt the most dangerous sport in the history of the Spiritual World, reserved for the high aristocracy, and pitting teams of templars and gurus in blood games of nine versus nine.

Even the "safe version" practiced in the Academy often resulted in gashing wounds, searing burns, and the occasional maiming. One maiming every five games. This horrifying ratio made Druids and Surgeons some of the highest-paying professions of the Purple Dawn, with the Coaches of Muk'Bal Teams all ranking among the highest-paid professionals in the region.

Take the Jade-Faced Academy for example. The Dean, Headmistress Achai, earned about 360,000 ener crystals per year. But the Chair of the Sanctuary Department, the Sanctuary Team's Head Coach, and all Sanctuary Coaches, really…made upward of 500,000.
