Thirty minutes after Abel entered the Dreamland Tower, the First Army concluded their one-hour break and returned to the war room.
Once everyone had gathered, Zhou Zhou briefed his soldiers on his plan, explaining the roles Abel and the two of them would play when it was put into action.
"If Abel reaches the Intent State tonight, you will most likely be fighting against a Low God-tier Godspirit from the Ice Demon Kingdom tomorrow."
Hearing their lord's words, Bai Yung and Lu Chong were stunned.
From Abel advancing his godhood path to the Intent State, to the Ice Demon Kingdom possessing a Godspirit, and finally to the prospect of battling such a divine entity, every revelation filled the duo with disbelief.
'Have we really reached the stage where we're fighting against Godspirits?'
Bai Yung couldn't believe how far they had come.
While the two were still reeling from the shock of his words, Zhou Zhou handed them the information he had gathered about Godspirits and True Gods.
"Go through these materials. You need to improve your understanding of Godspirits as quickly as possible."
After giving them the instructions, he opened the Myriad Races Lord Battlefield rankings.

"There are now twenty-six lords at the Mythical-tier Advance Grade."
"It took them only four days to reach this point. That's the fastest twenty-six lords have ever achieved the highest rank in the history of the Lord of All Races Competition."
He muttered as he prepared to continue climbing the rankings.
.
On the fiftieth floor of the Dreamland Tower, Abel lay on one of the beds while his consciousness sat inside a conjured Hall of Truth.
With neither hunger nor sleep to trouble him, he devoted himself to training. Days passed, followed by weeks, months, and eventually years.
Boredom, fatigue, and loneliness were of no consequence to the prodigy.
It was as though the tower had been created specifically for him.
That alone might not have been particularly remarkable. However, he had also discovered a mystical place like the Hall of Truth, which he could accurately envision.
On top of that, the tower itself had undergone an upgrade, becoming something that should never have been possible.
It was an impossible series of events that had somehow become reality.
With these successive miracles working in his favor, along with his exceptional talent in the way of the sword, Abel believed he could achieve the Intent State in as little as three years, let alone ten.

Kingdom of Na
"How are the preparations coming along?"
Oroshi asked his disciple, Sama.
With such a rare treasure as the Spike of the First Men at stake, he couldn't help but pay close attention to the preparations for its acquisition.
"We've managed to borrow a considerable amount of resources from the other factions. We should now be able to compete against the Empires for the racial treasure."
Sama reported to his master.
"Excellent. However, we mustn't become complacent."
"The Knight Empire and the Divine Sword Empire might be reluctant to exhaust too many of their resources, but the same cannot be said of the Great Xia Empire."
"They are the only Empire that has endured since the age of Pangu. Even the Saha Empire has declined to the level of an Advance-tier Kingdom after 10,000 years."
"We should borrow even more resources to ensure that we can at least hold our own against them in a bidding war."
Oroshi said solemnly.
"Yes, Master."
Understanding the fear his master held for the Great Xia Empire, Sama accepted the need for further preparations.
.
After completing his tenth match since the break, Zhou Zhou received an unfamiliar notification.
[Respected Mythical-tier Advance Grade Lord, you have achieved the highest ranking score in the Myriad Races Lord Battlefield event - 1,000 Points]
[You have been rewarded with 100,000,000 Battlefield Points for this accomplishment. From now on, you will receive 10,000,000 Battlefield Points daily.]
[You have temporarily obtained the title of the Strongest Lord in the Lord of All Races Competition. Your reward will be delivered in three days, provided you remain the strongest Lord in the Lord of All Races Competition.]
