As the newly arrived Transcendents in Peters City were going after Lothur, the young people from outside the Province who would participate in the Secret Realm were already in that city.
The Secret Realm of Linn Province didn't only have openings for citizens of this territory. It had 9 slots for locals: 6 slots for the Morning Star Academy, 2 slots for the family of the winning group of the team fights of the Province Conference, and 1 for the winner of the individual fights of this competition.
Besides these slots for people from Linn Province, the Secret Realm also had room for 6 more people, which the imperial family chose according to their preferences.
Currently, the Leopoldine family had chosen six prodigies from their empire, two of them from their own royal house and four youths from different noble families of the empire, from provinces that didn't have their own Secret Realms.
