"He's… reached the Core Formation realm…"
Those words were like a slight breeze passing by the ears of the group discussing the best and most suitable candidate to take over supervision of the Martian special regional city. It stirred gentle ripples, and the discussion about potential City Lord candidates continued for a few more moments…
Finally, the voices faded. The various important figures gradually froze, then abruptly turned towards the expressionless Martian Colony Governor. There was a moment… when the entire hall descended into a deathly silence.
It was during this silence that the Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord coughed. The sound of his cough echoed in the quiet halls. His voice, which the rest found annoying then, drifted amongst the group.
