Above the stars, the great sun hung high, its dazzling and brilliant light enveloping the entire club at that moment.
All the guests were dumbfounded at this moment. Weren’t we promised starry lights? You call this stars??
This scene pletely surpassed the imagination of everyone present, some guests even couldn’t hold onto their cups, all their attention drawn by that blazing sun.
They couldn’t fathom what extraordinary talent it took to create such a spectacle.
They held their breath and focused on the origin of the great sun, their gaze descending until a handsome and elegant young figure appeared in their sight.
The young man stood with his back to the crowd, his straight silhouette resembling a mountain, or a divine spear, and although not broad, the figure under that brilliant light seemed like the Sun God walking out of mythology.
All the guests looking at him felt their mouths dry, swallowing their saliva.
"On the Celestial City Star, is there really someone with such Heart and Spirit talent?"
"Is he a hidden talent from the five great families? Or a celestial pride passing by by chance??"
Elder Mo’s expression became somewhat remarkable, his previous smugness vanished instantly, and his eyes fixated on the young man.
Meanwhile, other guests stared intently at the figure, as if eager to discover what kind of person the creator of this magnificence was.
Although everyone wore concealing masks within the Hand of Void, these people, as the darlings of Heart and Spirit, understood that everything about a person influenced their Heart and Spirit.
They wanted to understand the essence of the person through the style of their mask.
For instance, someone choosing an Evil Ghost Mask might harbor some underlying savagery; those selecting animal masks might have slight disdain for human calculation; those opting for traditional godly masks might possess arrogant undertones.
Of course, the choice of mask is not always accurate, as some might deliberately select a mask they dislike to confuse others.
But ultimately, as long as there is a choice, there are traces to follow.
The young man, under everyone’s expectant gaze, slowly turned around, and then....
Everyone saw a white mask adorned with a ical smile.
Instantly, the expressions of everyone present turned peculiar.
What is this??
Dude, as someone who outshines the Eternal Night and suppresses the cluster of stars, you e with an emoticon face??
Even Elder Mo, who had been sternly staring at Su Tu, appeared somewhat uneasy.
Su Tu, however, paid no mind to their looks, casually picked up a nearby cup, slightly raised it towards everyone as a gesture, and the guests also graciously picked up their cups to join in the toast.
"Bro, amazing, a bigshot indeed!!"
"pared to you, I feel like some clay speck thrown by Nuwa.."
Dongdong also raised his cup beside Su Tu, speaking in a lowered voice, the first sentence filled with indescribable excitement, slightly replaced by helplessness in the next.
He too was a celestial pride on the Celestial Pride List, seen as lofty in the eyes of outsiders, but pared to Su Tu, he seemed like mere scraps.
"Don’t say that, how could Lady Nuwa throw around clay specks."
Su Tu said gently.
Dongdong thought Su Tu was forting him, just about to say something.
But then he heard Su Tu continue: "Maybe the clay figure fell to the ground."
Instantly, Dongdong’s mouth twitched, darn, Su Tu must be black inside, definitely!!
The two spoke in low voices, joking.
At that moment, the starlight in the venue gradually dimmed, and the dim lights of the Hand of Void began to brighten.
The need to announce the result was gone, everyone already had the answer to who the most resplendent was in their hearts.
As the dim light rose, a transmission of Heart and Spirit echoed in Su Tu’s mind: "Congratulations, my esteemed guest, you are the most resplendent under the Eternal Night. You can, after the assessment, make any request to the Hand of Void."
"As long as the request is reasonable and within the Hand of Void’s capability, it will be met."
The voice was indistinguishable between male or female, very neutral, with an indescribable rhythm that added unspeakable charm to his (or her) voice.
"Alright."
Su Tu responded in his heart.
Then the dim light fully enveloped the entire venue, the soft light falling, gradually calming the crowd that had been fervently discussing due to Su Tu’s spectacle.
Su Tu sensed a faint yet omnipresent power of Heart and Spirit within this dim light.
"A very skillful method."
Su Tu whispered in his heart, the opening ceremony was merely a way for the Hand of Void to manipulate emotions, but now because of Su Tu’s presence, the attention of these people had shifted away from the assessment and towards Su Tu.
This did not align with the Hand of Void’s goal.
Thus, they needed everyone to calm down and refocus on the assessment.
And those able to attend were people with certain attainments in Heart and Spirit, which made forcibly calming emotions through Heart and Spirit likely to provoke resistance.
But this dim light was different, it wasn’t purely a Heart and Spirit method, but more like a psychological approach, using soft light as guidance, supplemented by gentle Heart and Spirit fluctuations, calming everyone and focusing their attention on the Hand of Void.
Sure enough, at this moment, everyone present had mostly calmed down, though their occasional glances at Su Tu were still filled with curiosity and awe, discussions had almost ceased.
