After the university's inaugural function was over, Mark returned to the mansion with his family to celebrate Lu Shan's first birthday.
A private banquet was held for the guests in his mansion; Mark and Song Yue sat together, with the 1-year-old sitting between them. Shang Jiao, Mark's parents, some close relatives of Song Yue, ministers and their respective families, Eol, Allen and Zan Rong, Sylvandria, and even the four guardian beasts in their humanoid forms attended this banquet, showcasing the strength of demigod numbers on Mark's side to the royal guests, the envoys.
At the same time, this is also a unisex banquet and not a traditional banquet that separates genders into different halls. The envoys from vassal states were a bit embarrassed to stay at the banquet which was filled with family couples all around. They could only bear it and quietly ate their food amid the bustling environment.
Shen Ling unfortunately couldn't attend due to her state.
