Inside the Healing Tower...
Peak Master Natasha rushed frantically toward the thirteenth floor with an unusually excited smile on her face.
Even several nurses stared at her strangely because this was the first ti they had seen the cold Peak Master showing such excitent openly.
Finally— She reached the ICU operating section. Without even caring about patient privacy...
BANG!!!
She pushed the operating room door open directly.
"Emma!!!" Natasha called out loudly.
Inside the operation room, several doctors nearly jumped in shock. Emma Rock stood near the operating table wearing a full green surgical coat while carefully operating on a brain patient using silver needles.
Even after hearing Natasha’s loud voice, Emma maintained steady hands while slowly turning her head.
"Peak Master?"
Natasha smiled excitedly. "Emma... The World Tree Blessing has appeared!!!"
Emma froze instantly. Her fingers tightened slightly around the silver needles. Her breathing slowed... Her eyes trembled faintly.
This... Was the mont she had been waiting for.
Her only opportunity to save herself.
Emma Rock directly passed the needles to the blank-faced doctor standing beside her.
Within a few hurried steps, she reached Peak Master Natasha, who was standing at the operation room entrance with visible excitent on her face.
"Master... is it true?!" Emma asked with trembling eyes.
Natasha nodded imdiately. "Yes. I am absolutely certain. The World Tree Blessing has appeared. I even saw the live visuals personally."
For a mont, Emma stood frozen completely. Then slowly... genuine tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.
Her fists clenched tightly with determination. This mont... This was the mont she had been waiting for desperately. For months, she had searched for a way to survive. And now... Hope finally appeared before her again.
But Natasha’s expression slowly beca complicated afterward.
"There is one problem."
Emma imdiately looked up again.
"What happened?"
Natasha sighed softly. "There are only two hundred and sixty-four spots remaining for humans."
Emma’s expression changed drastically.
"What...?! So few?! I heard the last World Tree Blessing had more than one thousand three hundred spots available!"
Natasha nodded grimly. "Yes... But this World Tree Blessing appears completely different. The Dream Realm rumors alone are enough to shake the entire martial world. But don’t worry. Fewer spots also ans greater rewards for those who survive. And I am already using all my influence to secure at least one confird spot for you."
Emma’s breathing beca hurried instantly. "Master... Thank you so much! I won’t disappoint you!"
Natasha gently placed one hand over Emma’s shoulder. "But you must remain careful. The Clark family will definitely secure many spots for their younger generation. And if they discover your prsence... they may attempt to harm you directly. You must stay alert. Understand?"
Emma’s face imdiately darkened slightly after hearing the Clark family ntioned. Her eyes filled with killing intent instantly.
"Don’t worry, Master, You already know my strength. If the Clark family dares to co against ... they will pay the price."
A faint smile appeared on Emma’s lips afterward. "And honestly, dealing with a few Clark family youngsters might finally satisfy my revenge."
The surrounding doctors silently lowered their heads after hearing her murderous tone.
Natasha also remained silent briefly. She clearly understood the hatred buried inside Emma’s heart.
Finally, Natasha spoke again. "From now onward, your only focus is the World Tree Blessing. Forget your doctor duties temporarily. Take any resources you want from the administration departnt. I will personally authorize everything."
Emma nodded imdiately.
Without wasting another second, she removed the surgical gloves from her hands and walked out directly.
Her eyes now burned with ambition.

anwhile...
The existence of only two hundred and sixty-four human spots completely threw the martial world into panic.
Smaller families and weaker factions began moving frantically. Every family with a promising Peak Grandmaster disciple started using every possible connection they possessed.
Because if they failed this ti... Their younger generation might fall behind forever.
The unrest spread rapidly across the entire world martial network. Everyone moved at full speed. Resources... Influence... Political alliances. Everything beca valuable overnight.
Yet at the sa ti... Fear also slowly spread among the martial world. Because the rumors surrounding this World Tree Blessing felt unusually terrifying.
Particularly the Dream Realm!
The information about Dream Realm only existed inside forgotten cultivation texts from thousands of years ago.
Nobody truly knew what they were. But all surviving records carried one terrifying similarity. More than ninety percent of the geniuses entering those realms died.
The few survivors later beca rulers of entire continents. So ancient texts even claid several survivors managed to enter another cultivation world entirely through space cracks.
Nobody knew whether those stories were real or fantasy. But one thing was certain... This World Tree Blessing was dangerous beyond imagination.
***
anwhile...
More and more influential figures began arriving at Nine Lotus Academy.
Clark Family Head Rion Clark arrived personally. The Frost Family representatives also ca. Several Imperial British Family ancestors descended one after another. Even multiple Supre Warriors arrived quietly afterward.
Because the Octopus Organization’s ergency eting was currently being held inside Nine Lotus Academy.
The academy servants nearly collapsed from stress while trying to receive so many influential guests respectfully. Especially because Academy Master Da Vinci had personally ordered one thing:
"No one is allowed near the eting hall under any circumstance."
That single order beca a nightmare. Because every family head wanted imdiate access to the Octopus Organization. Everyone wanted reserved slots... Everyone wanted advantages. And everyone feared being left behind.
By evening, the pressure inside the academy beca overwhelming. More war vehicles continued arriving endlessly. Even the Peak Masters themselves beca restless.
Many wanted guaranteed places for their direct disciples. Because missing this opportunity ant waiting another two or even three years for the next World Tree appearance.
Finally—
Several high-ranking academy servants entered the ergency eting hall nervously.
All Seven Octopus House Masters sat together alongside Master Long and Academy Master Da Vinci.
The discussions had already continued for several hours nonstop. The head servant imdiately bowed deeply while trembling.
"What is it?" Master Long asked calmly.
The servant swallowed nervously. "It’s becoming very difficult to control the family heads outside..."
"There are already more than one hundred influential family representatives gathered inside Nine Lotus Academy. They all demand imdiate audience with the Octopus Organization. We cannot delay them much longer!"
The entire hall beca silent afterward. Even the Seven House Masters slowly turned toward Master Long. Clearly... Everyone waited for his final decision.
Master Long remained silent briefly before turning toward Third House Master Bellard.
"Bellard."
Bellard imdiately stood respectfully.
Master Long spoke calmly afterward. "I already expressed my opinion. But the final authority belongs to your Octopus Organization."
He slowly looked across all seven House Masters. "I know there is no absolute leader among the seven of you. So make a collective decision."
Bellard turned toward the remaining House Masters silently.
Then suddenly— Sixth House Master Nagi Luna slowly stood up.
The Moon Goddess family leader’s expression remained completely serious. "There is no need for further discussion. Master Long only desires the prosperity of our martial community. So my decision is simple... We should follow Master Long’s proposal completely."
Several House Masters nodded slowly afterward. One by one, the remaining House Masters stood up and voiced agreent.
Finally, Bellard sighed deeply before nodding as well.
"The Seven Houses accept Master Long’s decision."
Master Long finally nodded slightly... Then he turned toward the head servant.
"Call everyone inside. Allow all family heads to enter the main hall."
The servant’s face instantly relaxed with relief. "Yes, Master Long!" He imdiately ran outside at full speed.
anwhile, outside the hall...
Over one hundred family leaders and Supre representatives slowly stood up from their seats the mont the giant eting doors began opening.
The real battle for the World Tree Blessing spots will begin now.
