Hum!

The ring constantly hummed as the sounds made everyone feel like they wished to prostrate before it.

Liu Heng's father gazed at the scene, flabbergasted, unlike the others. 'T-This is Resonance? To think my son would attain such a state that was just mentioned in passing in a mysterious book I chanced upon in accident.'

He then noticed the look of doubt and confusion on Krune's face, immediately getting up as he said, "Everyone! For the future of our family's rise, please don't reveal this information until Liu Heng is old enough to shoulder the fate. Otherwise, he might be snatched away from us."

"Family head doesn't need to worry." One of the members stood up and cupped his hands, saying, "If someone dares to leak this information, then I would personally behead them and their entire family line."

"I'll do the same."

"Anyone who leaks this information is a traitor to the Liu Family."

Upon seeing everyone in the room express the same stance as him, Liu Heng's father sighed in relief, saying as he cupped his fists, "With all of you helping me, I'll be able to rest assured. Liu Heng is the hope of our family to attain more Imperial Meisters and establish a stronghold in the capital."

His words didn't mean much for everyone, thinking that it was just fuelling their plans to expand their family. However, for his brothers, his choice of words caused their eyes to tremble for an instant before they controlled themselves.

"Now, everyone, please excuse us for the time being. I wish to train Liu Heng in the ways as an Imperial Meister," he said, watching everyone get up, bow and begin leaving from the family hall.

He then motioned for Liu Heng to follow him, watching the Sun Ring fall into the confused hands of Liu Heng.

After arriving at a discrete room at the back of the hall, closing all the doors to prevent the words discussed within from leaking out, Liu Heng's father took in a deep breath, asking Liu Heng, "What do you feel right now?"

"I am confused to be honest," Krune said after a moment of thought. "I feel like even though I have become an Imperial Meister, the sensation I'm feeling from the Sun Ring is different from what I had expected."

"That's because it's no longer the Sun Ring," his father replied, telling him, "As you have attained the Resonance phenomenon, things are different now."

"What do you mean?" Krune was confused.

"There are three Imperial Arms: The Moon, the Sun, and the Star. Why do you think such a division exists?" he asked.

"Isn't it because of the difference in materials used?" Krune asked in confusion. He didn't state the complete answer because it wasn't something Liu Heng was supposed to know.

"There's that, but that's only in relation to the Sun and Moon Imperial Arms." His father nodded, giving him a basic gist of all the knowledge he was already aware of. After that, he suddenly dropped a shocking statement.

"However, a Star Imperial Arms isn't something that could be created by human hands," he said, shocking Krune.

"What do you mean by that? How come the Royal Family has them then?" Krune was confused. After all, even Su Zixin didn't know of this information. Everything related to the Royal Family was shrouded in mystery.

"If I hadn't seen this today, I too wouldn't have been able to believe this otherwise." Sighing, his father said, "A Star Imperial Arms is something that would awaken from either a Sun or a Moon Imperial Arms after attaining certain conditions."

"It would awaken?" Krune was shocked.

"Yes." His father nodded before explaining, "To awaken an Imperial Arms into a Star Imperial Arms, two conditions must be attained. First, the spirituality of the Imperial Meister should exceed the Sun or Moon Imperial Arms. This would force it to break its initial mold and birth the Star Imperial Arms. And secondly"

He said, sighing in the end, "You much be a descendant of the Royal Family. These two conditions are a necessity to evolving an Imperial Arms into Star Imperial Arms. In the first condition, when your spirituality exceeds the Imperial Arms, it causes the Resonance phenomenon."

"What's this spirituality? Also, how do I have the blood of the royal family in me? I don't remember our family line having shared blood with royalty." Krune was becoming more and more confused as he heard about things.

"Let me tell you about that." Suddenly, the voice of his mother resounded as her figure appeared in the room all of a sudden, startling him. Even with his Sonic Radar, he hadn't noticed her presence until she appeared there.

Krune then noticed his father turning silent after that. His earlier proud disposition had turned meek, looking at his mother like he was a mouse gazing at a cat.

Such an action from him surprised Krune, making him wonder just what was up.

His mother then spoke, her voice a bit tender as compared to how she spoke in the past, "This spirituality is nothing but the weight of your memories. There are some children born during the time of spirituality, allowing them to gain memories of their previous lifetimes. Only those that have more than a century's worth of memories are capable of causing this Resonance phenomenon. That's also why a Star Imperial Meister is incredibly rare. After all, with the death of a Star Imperial Meister, the Star Imperial Arms cannot be used."

"Or better yet, a normal Imperial Meister can only use it after feeding his entire life essence. That's why the Royal Family hardly mobilizes their Star Imperial Arms." She spoke in one breath.

"But" Krune was still confused.

At this time, his father spoke, "Your mother's current identity has been fabricated. Her actual identity is that of the Emperor's daughter whose identity has been kept under wraps since birth."

"The Emperor's daughter" Krune muttered, gazing at his mother before asking, "So, that makes you a princess?"

"Pretty much." His mother smiled in response. "Our imperial astrologer had proclaimed that I would be the one to bear this generation's Star Imperial Meister.. That was why I married into the Liu Family."
