Meanwhile.
News of the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle, like a wildfire, instantly ignited countless corners of human territory.
Within the Moluo Empire's territory, on the Meck family's main star—Iron Meteor Star.
On the immense training grounds, hundreds of young clan members stood at attention. Their auras were sharp and potent, and all were under two hundred years of age.
They wore uniform dark silver battle armor, their gazes like torches, all fixed on the high platform.
There, the current patriarch of the Meck family—a Tier Nine Star Lord whose aura was as deep as an abyssal sea—was delivering his final exhortation.
"...The Cosmic Peak Genius Battle, held once every millennium, gathers the most brilliant rising stars from across all human territory! This is a battlefield to make your name known, a stairway to the supreme Great Dao!"
The patriarch's deep voice, amplified by a force field, boomed across the grounds, carrying an undeniable authority.
