11 CAPTURED TERRITORIES

Ashu removed his spiritual energy from token and came back to his senses. He came down from hideout and started to survey the area of surroundings; he soon found out Medicine Valley's ten important zones, which were leading zones for medicine hunt and were captured by Top 10 participants. They were not forbidden zones, but essential areas for medicinal growth; they had rich medicinal growth coverage areas, but didn't have top quality medicines, rather they had average quality medicines.

Ashu heard from other participants that, these Top 10 participants had monopolised these territories of important zones and created a hierarchy system, where each Top 10 participant will be leader of a group and their group would have around 500 follower participants. If any follower participant gets any kind of medicines, then the leader will get 50% share of credit points i.e., followers were forced to pay tax of credit points for every medicine to leader, in exchange of security from wild beast and other Top 10 leaders and his followers. They get to explore these captured territories, which were monopolised by Top 10 leaders and if they don't want to share their credit points with these leaders, then they have to leave these captured territories; they have to wander alone in Medicine Valley for their survival and earn credit points themselves, where they not only have to survive from wild beasts, poisonous plants and insects, but also other opponents or they have to quit tournament in critical situations, where they are unable to defend themselves.

Ashu further found out about these territories; they were exotic physiographical regions with abundant Spirit qi and medicines, such as Volcanic Mountain Range, Cold Desert Region, Evergreen Rainfall Region, Swamp Region, Dry Arid Region, Poisonous Miasma Region, River Territory, Central Plain Region, Western Fog Plain, Southern Hurricane Region; there were many more regions in medicine valley, but the level of danger was high in those areas to hold ground.
