Among them was the Pavilion Master of Treasure Pavilion.
The City Lords of the four major districts.
Of the Ten Commanders, only Wang Hong had not yet arrived.
In short, most of the prominent figures in Spirit State had arrived, which showed how seriously they took the impending Nine States War.
The old man was all smiles as he looked down at the disciples below, saying, "All of you, rise!"
The disciples from the two halls stood up.
"The Nine States War is about to begin."
"I believe that you all are even more excited than I am."
"After all, this is the only opportunity to enter the Imperial Capital."
"Once you enter the Imperial Capital, your identities and status will soar overnight."
"I'm afraid that by then, even I would have to bow when I meet you," the old man chuckled.
