As the old man proudly announced that he had lived for five hundred years, a sense of eminent pride radiated from his face. Su Yu watched him intently. Indeed, for a human to live a full five hundred years was indeed something to be proud of. However, Su Yu could also sense the underlying sorrow behind the elder's pride. No matter how heroic one's life might be, no matter how grand, eventually they would reach the same endpoint as him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, you may understand what turning five hundred years old implies for me. Today, I have gathered you here to let you know that I... can break this limit. It is time for us to determine who will be the new Master of the Main City," the old man announced.
