Xiang Mingfeng walked to the center of the stone tablet forest, cupping his fists in greeting. "Many of you here are familiar faces… but let me introduce myself. I am Xiang Mingfeng of Wuji Mountain!"
The crowd was silent, their eyes fixed on Xiang Mingfeng, their ears keen to catch his next words.
"Now that we find ourselves in the bronze realm, it's a result of our past lives' karma and heaven's decree." His voice echoed through the forest. "For thousands of years, countless gifted individuals have perished in the bronze realm, their talents no less than ours. Among them was the unparalleled Chu, who was revered as the beacon of hope for all of Qingzhou.
"Yet, despite their promise, they ultimately failed… They died in here in the bronze realm." Xiang Mingfeng's resolve was unwavering. "I believe we can't continue to fight alone, lest we make their same mistakes and meet a similar fate in the bronze realm."
