Sun Venerable bowed with his hands in a fist, showing due respect to the Emperor. His tone was neither overbearing nor servile: "Your Majesty, your actions humiliate me!" He cast a disdainful glance at Master Sun: "What qualifications does he have to compete with me on the same stage?"
Immortal King Yuanxia could not help but scoff, saying: "Old man, playing on seniority, what notable achievements have you made in the recent decades?"
"There is no need to argue, I have decided. Sun, are you unwilling to accept?" Emperor Dacheng said indifferently.
Sun Venerable lowered his head, "I dare not refuse."
"Both of you, each forge a new country-protecting Immortal Artifact — it must be a completely new design, you are not allowed to repeat any old designs. First present your forging plans, I will review it with two other Emperors. After approval, you may begin forging."
"The first one to succeed will be in charge of all our clan's Country-protecting Immortal Artifact renovation plan."
