"I do not plan on starting immediately. The territory claiming period will only begin during the final 30 years. This gives you all 80 years' time to use the resources of our Star Clan to raise up geniuses worthy of protecting the lands of your ancestors.

"In addition, each one of you here will be allocated one universe that is completely untouchable. It will not be able to be claimed by points no matter how many one might have."

A collective sigh of relief was released. They knew that King Star had reason on his side, but the idea of shifting away their territories was too much. Even if they knew it would benefit them in the long run, humans were innately selfish creatures. Not many could set such things aside to think of the future

King Star nodded to himself, it seemed like things were working well.

"As for the matter of claiming territories, that another reason I've called you all here today. I propose that we form the Mortal Plane Federation.

"We will have a set of laws decided by all of us today. In addition, when the timer has run down to 30 years, and it's time to begin our territory claims, the Federation will move as one. Those who decide to oppose the rules we've set here today will feel the wrath of us all."

The hearts of those below pounded. A very dangerous question crept into their heads 'What if?'

What if they managed to birth an outstanding genius? What if they already had geniuses who were only lacking the resources they needed to shine? What if they got lucky and the whole trajectory of their Clan completely changed due to this event?

"I will set your minds at ease even further." King Star said with a kind smile. "Not only will point totals for territories by decided by the merit of the territory, but there will be one more factor. Remember your untouchable universe? This will be known as your Clan or Sect's Core Universe. When claiming a territory, the further the universe is from the borders of your current territory, the exponentially more expensive it is. I believe this is an arrangement that will put your minds at ease."

Hearing these words, even the other 8 top ranked Clans and Sects couldn't find a word worth rebutting. This system It was for the best. Although it was obvious the Star Clan could take great advantage of this system to quickly expand their territory, it was also true that they could as well.

Plus, since the Star Clan had the largest territory to begin with, with two whole quadrants, they would also need more time to reclaim their own lands first, ironically putting them at a disadvantage.

As it always had been It would be survival of the fittest.

King Star smiled brightly. They had succeeded.

He waved his hand, causing a bright board to appear in the air. It was filled with names, coordinates, and long strings of numbers following it.

At the very top was a very eye-catching name indeed: Celestial Universe.

And not many spots below that, there was yet another: Soul Universe.

The damning part? Unlike the 61 other locked universes with no point totals to their side, representing the 61 powers which had attended this day, both of those universes had clear point totals to their sides.

The message was clear: Even if it was the Sacharros, so long as you had enough points, the Federation would help you bring them down as well.

King Star's smile only seemed to grow brighter with each passing moment. "There is only one final thing I will discuss before we officially open our Federation's first Parliament, and that is the special circumstance of True God gen ."

"What a grand list." A beautiful voice that seemed capable of making one's bones soften rang out, easily slicing through the momentum of King Star's words and causing him to inadvertently frown. "I wonder how my husband would feel knowing that his territory was being sold off to the highest bidder without his consent"

The sudden voice caused the atmosphere to freeze. If before, the sudden appearance of Apollos hadn't shocked the Clan and Sect elders below, the appearance of not one, but three beauties in the sky definitely did.

One wore a gorgeous, fluttering red dress, her red-gold hair flowing to the small of her back as her emerald eyes pierced toward King Star.

She was the one who had spoken, a beauty with a voice and appearance so mesmerizing that even the Heads of the leading 9 territories, men who hadn't been moved by women in hundreds of thousands of years, felt a long dead fire relight in their lower abdomens.

The second had a petite, slight frame. Her silver hair fell like a waterfall of mercury and liquid aluminum, partially covered by a white lace headdress that exuded a pure aura. Though she didn't say a word, her strength blanketed the parliament, causing a cold sweat to permeate the backs of the various leaders. This woman they were no match for her.

Finally, there was the third. She was tender and immature compared to the former two, and could match neither their demeanor nor their elegance, but she was refreshing to gaze upon, overflowing one's heart with warmth. Light pink hair and sparkling pink-diamond eyes, her face held an adorable expression that filled one with the will to protect.

Though the second of the three women wasn't recognized by those below, the remaining two were most definitely. True God Sacharro's wife and little sister!

True God Diasho's eyes shone so brightly when they landed upon Amphorae that it almost seemed they might fall out of their sockets.

'What a woman!'

As a sword sprite, Diasho Ren felt it very keenly That sharp, hidden killing intent. The way she wreaked of blood His rod stood at attention, he cared not one bit if others would notice.
