The Hundred Cities Alliance was instantly crushed, with ten cities falling. What a resounding slap to the face.
As the news spread, the remaining city lords from dozens of cities flocked to the Sky Extreme Sect, only to be met with a message announcing the sect's closure. Stunned and despairing, they were left in disbelief.
The organizer, the Sky Extreme Sect, had abandoned the Hundred Cities once trouble arose. It was only then they realized, albeit too late, how futile it was to regret.
The distance between cities spans thousands of miles, and without the aid of a Divine Ship, flying takes several days.
In the event of a battle, reinforcements could only arrive via the Transmission Array, and each array could transport only a few dozen people at a time, making it an infinite wait.
Thus, they fell into despair.
Some began contemplating surrender.
Because those who surrender first might end up with a minor official position.
