Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1867: Chapter 1371: Tower Forging and Title Bestowal

In front of the Four Emperor Tower, the Void rippled without pause.

Almost all the experts and Master-quality figures within the Great Flame Yan Court had gathered here.

The five Imperial Thrones—Ling Xiao, Yu Wenwuji, Fang Qingxiao, Pang Heng, and Dan Taimeng—stood at the very front, with the Five Royal Envoys, Imperial Envoys, Envoys, Special Envoys and other ranks of Envoys arrayed behind them.

On both sides, Huangfu Qi, Wu Yan and the others from the Education Bureau, as well as Qin Meng Grandmaster, Wen Zhong Grandmaster, Mo River Grandmaster and the rest from the Construction Department, were all waiting quietly with their subordinates.

Reasonably speaking, leaving aside people like Huangfu Qi, even the Sky Patrol Department’s Imperial Thrones might not be able to summon these old Grandmasters of the Construction Department, who were devoted to research and had eccentric tempers.

Yet at this moment, the Grandmasters all raised their heads to look at that silver Law-shrouded Space formed beneath the ten-thousand-layered convergence of silver clouds high in the heavens, their expressions calm, their eyes filled with expectation, without the slightest impatience.

Not only because the person they waited for had likely already shattered the shackles of the King Level and ascended to the Emperor Level.

More importantly, this person’s contributions to the Great Flame and to the Blue Sea were such that even the Grandmasters of the Construction Department were filled with boundless admiration!

Yes, admiration!

To become a Grandmaster of the Construction Department in the Yan Court—who among them had no sense of belonging, no sense of responsibility toward the nation and its people?

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

Even if at first they had only been obsessed with delving into the Way of the Four Arts, after countless years in their positions they had long since come to feel the weight of their duty.

For example, Qin Meng Grandmaster of the Array Hall, who, when the Grey Realm first descended, disregarded danger to personally go to the Northern Continent with the army and lay down the Sun and Moon Ascension Array!

For example, Mo River Grandmaster of the Artifact Hall, who forged nine Holy Artifacts and over eighty Epic Star Artifacts before the final battle!

For example, Li Jianfeng Grandmaster of the Alchemy Hall, who, throughout the Beast Tribulation, refined nearly ten thousand various Epic-grade and above Elixirs by his strength alone...

Each of these Grandmasters had shouldered their responsibilities during the Great Tribulation, doing everything within their power to help the Great Flame and the Blue Sea weather the calamity.

Yet everyone knew very well that compared to the one they were waiting for now, the role they themselves had played was not even one-tenth, not even one-hundredth!

If not for that person repeatedly accepting orders in times of peril, turning the tide at the brink of collapse and supporting the crumbling edifice, then not to mention the Great Flame—even the entire Blue Sea would have faced a cataclysm.

Precisely because of this, the Grandmasters of the Construction Department were sincerely filled with admiration and respect; even if it meant putting down their research and forging, they had to personally come to receive him at this moment of profound significance.

If even the old Grandmasters of the Construction Department were like this, there was all the more no need to mention the Sky Patrol Department itself!

Within the field stood countless Sky Patrol Angels; anyone who had guessed the reason for this assembly had blazing eyes, secretly excited as they stared at the brilliant silver light flickering in midair.

In the crowd, Xiang Dingqian’s gaze swept again and again over the five Imperial Thrones and the various Royal Envoys, yet he still did not find that figure.

”All five Imperial Thrones are here; then it can only be him!” Xiang Dingqian clenched his fists, his eyes bright, as if more excited and thrilled than if he himself were breaking through. ”Has he really broken through? Beyond the King Level!”

Within the Vermilion Bird Palace, Xia Xuan, who had already advanced to the Chongyang Realm, felt shock and doubt, yet there was also a trace of sighing emotion on her face: ”Royal Envoy Su truly has the bearing of the Heavenly People...”

As for colleagues like Jiang Lan, Xiahou, Wenren Feng and the others who had stepped into the King Level one after another after the Earth Tribulation, they were likewise filled with admiration and anticipation.

Everyone was waiting.

At this moment, Spirit Light flashed atop the Green Emperor Tower and the Spirit Emperor Tower, and two figures flew over—it was the Spirit Emperor and the Green Emperor.

The two of them also stood with hands clasped behind their backs, looking up at that surging, roiling silver light in the sky.

”He’s coming!”

Seeing even these two emerge, everyone knew the time had almost arrived.

Sure enough, after only a brief moment, the silver light condensed, and the endlessly rippling Void suddenly fell still.

Amid the expectations of the masses, a figure stepped through the air.

Silver hair and silver eyes, gaze divine; with hands clasped behind his back, he stood firm upon the Void Heaven, making the entire sky tremble without end!

”Royal Envoy Su!”

The crowd gazed up at that transcendent, unfathomable figure high in the heavens, his divine aura yet to be restrained, and their hearts surged; they vaguely already knew the result!

Su Yuan’s figure blurred and he appeared before the Green Emperor and Spirit Emperor.

”I have seen the Green Emperor and Spirit Emperor.” Su Yuan cupped his fists.

The Green Emperor raised a hand in return and smiled. ”Congratulations, Royal Envoy Su, on stepping into the same realm as us!”

”Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on ascending to the Emperor Realm.” The Spirit Emperor likewise returned the salute, looking at Su Yuan before him with clear emotion. ”Since you have already entered the Emperor Level, there is no need for such formality.”

Su Yuan nodded with a smile. ”Very well.”

Seeing the two Emperors offer their congratulations first, the crowd below had no more doubts. Led by the Imperial Thrones, countless Sky Patrol Angels shouted in unison:

”Congratulations, Royal Envoy Su, on ascending to the Emperor Level!!”

To the Sky Patrol Department, in the past few decades, the sudden emergence of Su Yuan was undoubtedly a legend among legends!

From his academy days he had already made a name for himself as a genius, specially recruited into the Sky Patrol Department, and from there he advanced step by step—from Special Envoy, to Envoy, to Imperial Envoy, and then to Royal Envoy... At every stage, he displayed astonishing, unparalleled, Transcendent feats!

Whether in Strength or in reputation, beneath the Emperor Level there was none who could match him; he was practically the idol of every Sky Patrol Angel.

And today, after bringing an end to the Beast Tribulation and launching a reverse strike against the Emperor Level, he had, in one stroke, broken through to the Emperor Level!

Many Sky Patrol Envoys shouted until their throats were hoarse, blood boiling, overcome with excitement; all the admiration and fervor they had long held exploded in this cry of congratulations that had been building up for so long.

As for old friends like Xiang Dingqian, Xia Xuan, Xiong Ba, and the others, and those students who had joined the Sky Patrol Department a few years ago with hearts full of admiration—Zhou Lingyun, Wen Long, Zhao Zining—they were all surging with emotion, their excitement beyond words!

Su Yuan looked at the bright, burning gazes of the many Envoys, saw among them many familiar faces, and slightly cupped his fists. ”Thank you, everyone.”
