There was an uproar when the crowd heard what Dragon-Arm Sovereign had said. However, they were no longer surprised but were making all sorts of remarks.

Mu Chen had already proven his strength. As a Half Step to Grade Nine Sovereign, he possessed the combat force to contend with a Grade Nine Sovereign! He indeed deserved to be conferred as king.

“He is so amazing,” Lord Asura exclaimed as he looked at Mu Chen, who was standing among the mess. He usually looked stern, but he was now touched by Mu Chen. When Mu Chen first came to Daluo Territory, he was just a commander. In just a few years, he had surpassed all of them and assumed kingship.

The rest of the older lords were touched as well. They had witnessed how Mu Chen had worked his way up to become what he was this day.

“Lord Blood Hawk, do you still remember that you had a lot of grudges against the two of them previously?” Lord Mountain Cracker teased Lord Blood Hawk as he glanced at him. When Nine Nether first returned to Daluo Territory, Lord Blood Hawk had had a lot of conflicts with her and created a lot of trouble.

Lord Blood Hawk became embarrassed when he heard it. If Mu Chen and Nine Nether were as powerful when he had first met them, he would not have had the audacity to offend them. He was glad that he had not gone overboard back then. Otherwise, he would be trembling with fear now.

The other new lords were whispering among themselves. They had not expected Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man to fail in securing the kingship. Mu Chen and Nine Nether would become the fourth and fifth kings in Daluo Territory.

There would be a change in the power structure of Daluo Territory with the addition of the two kings. After all, kings had great power, and they could even decide on the allocation of resources for the lords. The new lords were secretly wondering if they should pledge allegiance to the two new kings to get protection from them.

The square was boisterous, and everyone had his own thoughts. Condor King, Spiritual Pupil King, and Sleeping King were smiling. Nine Nether and Mu Chen were not new to them, and the three kings were more ready to accept them as kings than Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man.

Mandela stood up from her throne. She was petite and inconspicuous, but when she stood up, the square instantly quieted down. The older lords and the new lords turned to look at her with great respect.

Mandela was a prominent figure in the North Territory given her status as an Upper Earthly Sovereign and as the top guy in the North Territory.

“The fight for the kingship has come to an end. From now on, Daluo Territory will have two additional kings. They are King Mu and King Nine Nether,” Mandela announced.

“Congratulations, Lord Mu and Lord Nine Nether for assuming kingship!” The people in the square started to congratulate Mu Chen and Nine Nether, and many people looked at them with admiration. Both of them were the youngest kings that Daluo Territory had ever had.

As the people were filled with admiration for Mu Chen and Nine Nether, they were shocked as well. The two of them possessed such great talents and strength at such a young age, and had even prevailed over the two long-standing top powers like Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man. They were astoundingly talented.

Mandela turned to look at Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man, and comforted them saying, “Both of you need not be dismayed. You indeed possess the capability to become king. You only need a bit more experience and time.” Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man were Grade Nine Sovereigns, after all. They were important to Daluo Territory, thus Mandela had to appease them to prevent them from bearing any grudges.

The two of them were new. If they had become kings, they would have become proud, and this would not do Daluo Territory any good. Mandela was thus happy that Mu Chen and Nine Nether had secured the kingships.

Dragon-Arm Sovereign and Withered Old Man felt a little better after hearing Mandela’s consolation. After this experience, they had mellowed out. When they had first come to Daluo Territory, they were prideful. Other than Mandela, they were only wary of Sleeping King, and were not even afraid of Condor King and Spiritual Pupil King. When they were at Grade Nine Sovereign and became masters in the North Territory, enjoying all the attention, Condor King and Spiritual Pupil King were only at Grade Eight Sovereign.

They had thus presumed that they would naturally assume the kingship and be second only to Mandela. They thought no one was capable of vying for the positions with them. However, they had not expected Lord Mu and Lord Nine Nether to appear and put them down so thoroughly.
