At night.
Great Shang's royal palace was fully lit.
Yang Xindi sat on his throne, while Zhou Xuanji and the other nine victors sat on his right, and Great Shang's high officials and general sat on his left. There were three rows of seats on both sides, and 100 of them were seated there.
Di Yu and Yang Renlong were among them.
"This year's World Hero Conference really revealed a hero. Phoenix Sword Emperor, you really came to fame with this one battle. From tonight onward, your mighty name will be made known in all of Great Shang."
An old man, dressed in a black robe, held up his wine cup and said with a smile on his friendly face. His hair was entirely white.
He was Great Shang's State Teacher, Yang Zhongtian.
Yang Zhongtian was an extremely rare goat from the ancient days who cultivated into a demon. He lived for 10,000 years and his power was unfathomable.
