The award ceremony was quite simple, with speeches from Qin Ken and Gao Xuan lasting only about ten minutes.
The highlight of the entire ceremony was undoubtedly Gao Xuan’s speech.
The mont when Gao Xuan held up the trophy with a radiant smile was captured by photographers, warming the hearts of billions of young female fans.
After the ceremony, as usual, there was a closing performance for the finals. A famous singer ca and sang lively songs, getting the entire audience excited.
Everyone forgot about Hodder. In fact, losers are always forgotten by others.
Neither Song Yunxi nor Jin Yutang mattered at this ti. When everyone was indulging in a jubilant frenzy, the hottest topic was still Gao Xuan, with discussions swirling about the various situations on site.
Being present at the finals has beco a credential one can boast about.
Many Golden Powerhouses and genius Sword Heroes left right after the award ceremony.
Only Tifeng stayed behind; he still had to handle Hodder’s aftermath. Hodder’s Golden Crow Sword and Droprunir’s Golden Ring had to be put away.
Tifeng brought along quite a few attendants, ensuring the affairs were handled properly.
Hodder quickly beca a small urn of ashes, with his birth and death dates engraved on the silver urn, along with a laser-etched photo of him.
The fist-sized urn serves a more substantial purpose for the bereaved to express their grief.
This specially crafted tal urn is extrely durable and corrosion-resistant.
According to interstellar customs, a dedicated spacecraft would take the deceased’s ashes to the Galaxy Core Region and release them into space.
This custom originated from the first batch of human star explorers. Their dream was to explore the Star River and uncover the secrets of the cosmos.
So, after their deaths, they hoped their ashes would wander through space.
This reflects humanity’s courageous and free spirit in interstellar exploration. It gradually beca a customary way to deal with after-death affairs.
Of course, so Star Realms still retain strong traditional cultures, with ashes interred in graveyards.
On Taiwei Star, traditional practices prevail, and the graveyard business is thriving.
Tifeng gently stroked the silver urn. He didn’t like Hodder’s personality, which was proud and gloomy yet lacking wisdom.
However, in this generation of the Odin Family, only Hodder and Talos had the most potential.
Hodder, after decades of accumulation, would inevitably achieve Gold.
Unfortunately, both of the most gifted children were killed by Gao Xuan.
Tifeng was not sad. At his age, he had witnessed too many deaths. He only felt a bit lancholic.
The Odin Bloodline has been passed down through the generations, and their Power has diminished. The honor of the ancestors has been lost by them.
Now, the Golden Bloodline Families of the Central Star Realm no longer consider the Odin Family as peers.
The nurous humiliations he suffered this ti proved it. Because the Odin Family lacks Power, Hodder was killed with impunity and beca a stepping stone for the successful even after death.
Tifeng was not sad for Hodder but felt a deep and intense sorrow for the decline of the entire family. This sorrow was so profound it surpassed his hatred for Gao Xuan.
In Tifeng’s view, Gao Xuan was rely a clown.
The truly hateful were Qin Ken, Song Muyang, and Liu Zhong—those Golden Bloodline Powerhouses—who looked down from above and cared nothing for the honor of the Odin Family.
Even more sorrowful, Tifeng could not take revenge on this group. He could only find trouble with Gao Xuan, venting his anger and sorrow on the weaker Gao Xuan.
This thought made Tifeng even more downcast.
Tifeng felt disinterested and even considered letting Gao Xuan go. Gao Xuan, after all, ca from modest beginnings and was naturally at odds with these Noble Families.
Judging by the attitudes of Qin Ken, Song Muyang, and others, they also had considerable conflicts with Gao Xuan, including people like Liu Zhong and those from Yuan Ancheng.
These Golden Powerhouses were mostly not people with big hearts.
There’s a common misconception among ordinary people that Golden Powerhouses must be magnanimous.
Power and character have no relation. A devious person with sufficient talent who finds his path can beco a powerhouse.
The Alliance has been unable to expand, becoming increasingly complex and fiercely competitive internally over the millennia.
In such an environnt, every Golden Powerhouse that erges is actually quite complex-minded. There’s no such thing as a ’good person.’
In fact, it might be said that there are no good people among Golden Powerhouses.
Song Muyang is considered broad-minded, so he might spare Gao Xuan. Others like Qin Xuan and Liu Zhong would never let Gao Xuan leave Taiwei Star alive.
If another magnanimous powerhouse were in their place, they might try to win Gao Xuan over.
The problem is, with Gao Xuan’s innate arrogance and flamboyance, how could he submit to others?
Tifeng was quite curious to see how Gao Xuan would contend with the various Golden Powerhouses. But after much pondering, he remained uneasy.
He had to watch the faces of the major families to act, and yet he had to consider so much when dealing with a ager Gao Xuan?
Gao Xuan being so high-profile must be relying on sothing. But so what? He, as a Golden Middle-tier Powerhouse, wielding the Eternal Spear, could not possibly fear a re Gao Xuan!
Thinking this, Tifeng extended his Spiritual Power to lock onto Gao Xuan’s aura. Gao Xuan was atop Xinghai Mansion!
Tifeng was a bit surprised that Gao Xuan was bold enough to stay at the hotel without leaving.
On the top floor of Xinghai Mansion, there was another familiar aura of a Golden Powerhouse, none other than Qin Ken.
It seed Gao Xuan and Qin Ken were indeed in collusion. However, the finals were over, and Qin Ken could no longer protect Gao Xuan.
This was sothing Qin Ken had promised him beforehand.
