Emperor Yu sighed softly.
Previously, everyone knew this was the last opening of the Dao Domain, destined to be far more brutal than before, with rumors that only one in ten would survive.
But only Emperor Yu and the National Preceptor knew, it was beyond re brutality.
Among the continents, the Eastern Continent was actually the weakest.
Facing the champions from other continents, surviving one out of ten would be the best outco.
"With Prince Qin Ying here, the results shouldn't be too bad, Your Majesty need not worry so much."
Ancestor Qin Ying could be Emperor Yu's greatest reliance.
But even so, the situation was far from optimistic.
"Let them all co, it's ti to tell them about this."
"Hmm!"
"It's ti to let them know, to put so pressure on them. If the rules are seized by outsiders, it's not just a loss for the Eastern Continent, it's a humiliation!"
...
Within the Three Judicial Departnts.
"You say Your Majesty summoned to the palace?"
Zhan Tian was sowhat puzzled, wondering why he was suddenly summoned to the palace.
"Yes, Elder Zhan, and Your Majesty commands you to go to the Imperial Palace imdiately!"
The imperial eunuch below replied respectfully.
"What!"
Zhan Tian instantly rose, his deanor becoming grave.
Enter the palace imdiately!
In all his years as Minister of the Three Judicial Departnts, this had only happened once!
That ti was due to chaos in the Stone Cave!
"And what about the Three Dukes and Liu Sheng?"
"Other eunuchs have already gone to deliver the summons."
Instantly, Zhan Tian knew sothing big had happened, otherwise Emperor Yu wouldn't summon both the Three Dukes and them.
"Let's go!"
With that, he rushed out of the Three Judicial Departnts, ignoring the ban on flying in the Imperial City, and headed directly for the Imperial Palace.
Zhan Tian had just arrived at the city gates of the Imperial Palace.
"Wait!"
He heard Liu Sheng's voice behind him.
Zhan Tian stopped and turned, seeing not just him, but the Three Dukes had gathered there as well.
Even Duke Yuan, whom he hadn't seen for a long ti, had appeared.
"What happened? Do any of you know?"
Zhan Tian looked at the group.
"You'll know soon enough."
Duke Qin said calmly, then walked past Zhan Tian into the palace, followed by Duke Liu and Duke Yuan.
Only Zhan Tian and Liu Sheng were left standing there.
"Let's go, you shouldn't have asked, now you're embarrassed."
Liu Sheng teased him.
"Damn it!"
"Old Qin certainly knows, look at him acting so superior, but we'll find out inside."
Zhan Tian was quite displeased.
Just because he's part of the Imperial Family, acting mighty.
"Alright, let's go!"
Liu Sheng sighed and dragged him into the palace.
Qixuan Hall.
As Zhan Tian entered, he keenly felt the tense atmosphere.
The Three Dukes were already seated.
Emperor Yu slightly raised his eyes, "Sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The two bowed slightly and said in unison, then sat on the right.
Seeing everyone had arrived, Emperor Yu turned to the National Preceptor.
"National Preceptor, you may speak."
"Yes!"
The National Preceptor nodded slightly, then conveyed the news that champions from other continents were coming to Great Yu.
"That's about it."
After speaking, the National Preceptor slowly closed his eyes.
At this mont, except for Duke Qin, the others were deeply shocked. This was the first ti they had heard about the transmission channels between Great Yu and other continents.
"I told you all before, this Buried Land would be extrely dangerous this ti, far exceeding previous tis, and this is the reason."
Emperor Yu said solemnly.
"So that's how it is!"
"Before, I thought it would be extra fierce this ti because it's the last opening, but now it seems I underestimated it."
Liu Sheng looked at Emperor Yu and continued to ask, "Why didn't Your Majesty tell us earlier?"
"It would have been better to prepare!"
After speaking, not only him, but the others also looked at Emperor Yu.
Indeed, if they were inford earlier, they would have spared no effort in nurturing those individuals.
Now, there's less than three years left, too little ti.
"I forgot!"
Emperor Yu's words left them sowhat speechless, even amused.
How could such a major issue be forgotten?
"Alas!"
Emperor Yu sighed for a long ti, "This matter was signed a million years ago, during the previous dynasty. I only rembered it when I sensed anomalies in the Buried Land."
"But.. it's too late!"
Actually, Emperor Yu couldn't be blad for this. If not for the anomalies in the Buried Land, he wouldn't recall this matter at all.
"It's not Your Majesty's fault, it's too long ago. If Your Majesty hadn't told , I would have never heard about it."
The National Preceptor opened his eyes and spoke softly.
This was not an excuse for Emperor Yu; it was indeed the truth.
Events from a million years ago, signed by a previous dynasty, requires anomalies in the Buried Land—such stringent conditions.
It's normal not to rember.
"Now, since we know, let's hear everyone's thoughts!"
The National Preceptor looked at the crowd.
"Are the strengths of the champions from other continents clear?"
Duke Liu asked.
"We don't know. The Eastern Continent's Buried Land was the first to malfunction, all continents were isolated, and the transmission channels haven't been opened. So everything is unknown."
"But one thing... among the continents, the Central Continent is undoubtedly the strongest, this is without question."
"And the Eastern Continent... is at the bottom!"
"So the champions coming will definitely exceed your imagination!"
The National Preceptor's words brought imnse pressure to the crowd.
Especially the phrase 'Eastern Continent at the bottom'!
Even their top combat strength is inferior, let alone the younger generation.
"Then let each of us nominate one person, and with all of Great Yu's strength, in the remaining ti, nurture them without any reservations."
"I ask for nothing else, just to save Great Yu's face!"
