Meanwhile, in the sky of the floating world, Qin Feng had already ascended to a higher altitude. His voice broke the silence with a heavy tone that echoed down to the very foundation of that world. “Boy, I did not expect you to still be hiding your strength. But if you wish to take my position, this power of yours is still not enough!” Both of his hands lifted his golden hammer high above. In an instant, the hammer elongated and enlarged until it reached the size of thousands of meters. Its surface emitted a heavy light that pulsed like the beat of life, and from within it came the sound of colliding metals, loud and weighty, like worlds clashing against each other. Every vibration echoed in all directions, marking the destructive power that was ready to be unleashed. But that was not all. BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ! The sky rumbled violently. Sharp vibrations rippled through the air, and from behind the swirling clouds of energy, other colossal hammers emerged one after another

"How could this be?" The Star Legion soldiers couldn't believe it. They all looked down, especially those who had lost their bets. The atmosphere, once lively with laughter and victorious cheers, suddenly came to a halt. The whispers that had filled the courtyard vanished as if swept away by the wind. All that remained was a heavy silence that weighed on the chests of everyone present. Some soldiers stared at the ground, not daring to speak, while others remained fixed on the center of the arena, where the remnants of Qin Feng's blood mist slowly faded, leaving the air faintly vibrating with traces of the power that had just erupted. Not only was the Fourth Vice Commander dead, but they also had to cough up ten million Chaos Stones. This defeat felt bitter, striking at their pride and slapping down the arrogance they had just displayed. Feelings of shame mixed with bitterness were etched on many faces. No one had expected that the big bet they thought was safe would actually destroy

Most of those people looked down, not daring to raise their heads. Some stood with their hands folded in front, while others hugged their own arms as if trying to cover wounds that still felt sore. They looked like shadows of their former selves, leaving only bodies that were still able to stand, but their souls seemed to have been left behind somewhere else. The air in the courtyard felt heavy seeing that situation. There was no sound from them, no unnecessary movement. All were silent, only faint gazes directed at the figure of Xiao Tian in front of them. Although Xiao Tian did not know them, his heart ached a little seeing that sight. He stood silently for a moment before looking at them all. "Are you willing to join under my command?" The eight hundred people immediately answered without hesitation. "Fourth Vice Commander, we are ready." Their voices were simultaneous, echoing heavily in the air, not because they were loud, but because of the honesty and relief that had been su

"I'm fine, wounds like this won't kill me. However, I really have to be careful. The strength of the people here is different from all the enemies I've ever faced. I thought that with the strength of my War God's physical body, I wouldn't have any difficulty facing a thirteenth-rank God Emperor, but in reality, I'm still having a lot of trouble." "Your opponent this time is indeed different. If you want to survive, you must immediately increase your strength." "I know that." Xiao Tian immediately sat cross-legged in the middle of the room. His breathing was heavy, regular but clearly audible every time he inhaled. His upper chest felt sore every time it expanded, but he maintained his sitting position without moving at all. His right hand was placed on his knee, while his left hand slowly opened to regulate the flow of energy around his body. The energy in the room began to move slowly, like a fine mist floating low. The flow rotated around him, forming a thin layer that slowly ab

Inside his new hall, Xiao Tian sat on the main bench. The hall had just been built. Although it still looked simple without many ornaments, its arrangement already appeared neat and structured. Pillars stood tall on both sides, supporting a high roof that reflected the soft light from the natural energy flowing around it. The air inside the hall was calm and stable, bringing an impression of authority that was just beginning to form. Before Xiao Tian stood more than eight hundred of his subordinates. They lined up in a straight formation, standing tall, and maintaining uniform precision in their spacing. Not a single sound of conversation was heard. Only the faint breaths from those hundreds of bodies filled the space, reflecting the discipline that had begun to take root within them since being under Xiao Tian's command. Xiao Tian's gaze swept across the entire line from end to end. "You must know, this is the beginning of our formation. From the information I received from the com
