Most of the powerful figures were enslaved by him. There weren't many Venerable-level experts, just two from the Golden Scale Clan, the Azure Nether Venerable, and the Qianwu who joined later.
The Qianwu are still adventuring on the Primordial Star. Thanks to the Star Treasure Set, the Qianwu have now earned the title of overlord.
He has completely shed the title of the world's biggest loser.
"Silver Voice".
Xingchen spoke.
"From this day forward, Star Palace will officially become the sixth major power among humankind. Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, and other forces will send people to assist us in our development."
"I have now broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe. Please have Elena and the others come to the main hall for a meeting later."
Upon hearing this, King Yinyin was overjoyed: "Congratulations, Palace Master! This is incredibly good news!"
A storm raged in his heart; he never expected that his master would actually break through to the level of the Universe Lord!
How long has it been!
"Don't get too excited yet."
Xingchen shook his head.
"With our power newly established and everything in need of rebuilding, the Star Palace is still very weak and needs to accumulate strength gradually."
A moment later, figures arrived one after another inside the main hall of the Star Palace.
Elena, dressed in a silver-white gown and surrounded by a faint aura of immortal divine power, strode into the main hall.
Although she had only recently broken through to immortality, as the actual manager of the Star Palace, she still possessed a calm and composed demeanor.
"Palace Master."
Elena bowed respectfully, her eyes filled with joy.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough to the level of Lord of the Universe."
He had clearly already learned of the news, which was currently only circulating among the Lord of the Universe and the Supreme Being of the Universe.
However, Elena's special status meant she could naturally find out.
There's no need to hide Xingchen's identity. After all, his battle that made him famous was excessively high-profile, known to all the major races in the universe. There's no need to hide it; it's just that he hasn't had time to publicize it yet.
Xingchen smiled and nodded: "Please sit down."
Subsequently, the Azure Venerable of the Golden Scale Clan, the Lord of the Qianwu Kingdom, and several other core members took their seats. The entire hall was filled with the high-ranking members of the Star Palace.
"Everyone."
Xingchen surveyed the crowd, his voice steady and powerful.
"From this day forward, the Star Palace will officially become the sixth major power among humankind."
A gasp of astonishment erupted within the hall. The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom trembled with excitement: "The sixth major power... does this mean we're on par with the Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Arena?"
That's right, the Qianwu also came, but only through the virtual universe.
"good."
The stars nodded.
"But correspondingly, our responsibilities have also become heavier."
He raised his hand and waved, and a virtual projection unfolded in the center of the hall, displaying the future development plan of the Star Palace.
"First, regarding territory."
The stars point to the star map.
"With our headquarters as the center, there are more than a dozen star regions around us. In our direct line of duty, Elena, you are responsible for liaising with various races and forces to establish a sound administrative system."
Elena quickly wrote down, "Understood."
"Secondly, talent recruitment."
Xingchen looked at Venerable Biyou.
"Virtual Universe Company, Giant Axe Arena, and others will send personnel specializing in weapon crafting and secret techniques to provide support. Biyou, you are in charge of the reception and arrangements."
Venerable Biyou respectfully replied, "As you command."
As tasks were arranged one by one, the future development direction of the Star Palace gradually took shape.
After arranging the main tasks, Xingchen stood up, and suddenly a dazzling starlight shone from her body.
The immense and boundless pressure made everyone hold their breath.
"Everyone."
The sound of stars echoed throughout the entire hall.
"The Star Palace is newly established and its foundation is still shallow. We will need you to work hard. In the future, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."
As Xingchen finished speaking, all the powerful figures in the hall bowed in unison, their eyes gleaming with excitement.
"I will obey the Palace Master's command!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Chapter 186 The Hundredth Era
Elena was the last to leave the main hall. Before leaving, she turned back and took a deep look at the stars. The gap between her and the stars was getting wider and wider. She secretly made up her mind to manage the Star Palace in an orderly manner.
After everyone had left, Xingchen stood in the center of the main hall, his divine sense covering the entire Star Palace territory. He could sense that from this moment on, this starry sky would undergo earth-shattering changes.
Sure enough, just three days later, the first support team from Virtual Universe Company arrived.
Led personally by Venerable Tianyu, the team consisted of three hundred experts from various fields, including fifty weapon-refining masters, twenty experts in secret rune research, and a large number of administrative management personnel.
"Palace Master of Star Palace, this is the first batch of support list."
Venerable Tianyu respectfully handed over a memory crystal.
"The Lord of Chaos City specifically instructed that the needs of the Star Palace should be given priority."
He was extremely respectful to the stars, for they were the masters of the universe!
The original star's feat of fighting nine opponents single-handedly was so glorious that he could not help but respect him.
Xingchen took the crystal, scanned it with his divine sense, and couldn't help but be moved. The talent pool on this list was almost comparable to the core team of an advanced cosmic nation.
"Please thank the teacher for me."
Xingchen said solemnly.
At the same time, the combat instructor team sent by the Giant Axe Arena also arrived.
The leader was an invincible king-level expert known as "Battle King," who was in charge of training the Star Palace guards.
The Cosmic Mercenary Alliance sent a group of experienced explorers to help Star Palace develop the newly acquired territory's resources.
With the full support of the human race, the Star Palace developed at an astonishing speed. In less than a century.
The expansion of the Star Palace headquarters has been completed.
The weapon-refining hall has been initially completed, and the first batch of weapon-refining apprentices have begun their studies.
The guard team was assembled and personally trained by the War King.
With the administrative system in place, Elena took overall command.
Even more astonishingly, as the virtual universe began to vigorously promote the Star Palace's recruitment policy, the entire human realm was shaken.
Join the Star Palace and receive a valuable gift!
This eye-catching title was pinned to the top of major forums across the virtual universe. The detailed policies further fueled the envy of countless powerful individuals.
Upon the arrival of the Cosmic Venerable, he was immediately bestowed with a supreme treasure.
Upon joining the ranks of the Immortal King, a high-grade treasure will be immediately bestowed upon him.
Geniuses began to be recruited across the entire universe, and resources for cultivating geniuses surged, even surpassing those of the other five major powers.
"This is insane! The Star Palace Master is far too arrogant!"
An immortal king exclaimed in surprise in the virtual universe.
"I've heard that the Star Palace Master can refine supreme treasures, so this little treasure is nothing to him."
Another venerable one explained.
After the news spread, powerful individuals flocked to apply to join the Star Palace. Within a short period, seven Universe Venerables submitted their applications; 83 King-level Immortals requested to join.
The Star Palace established a special review committee, headed by Venerable Biyou, to rigorously screen each applicant.
The Star Palace continues to develop at this time.
However, he doesn't accept just anyone; those who have committed heinous crimes are absolutely not allowed to join the Star Palace.
The Venerable Biyou sent over the first batch of personnel lists.
Xingchen glanced at the list: "Very good, reward them according to policy. Also, tell them this is just the beginning. As long as they perform exceptionally well and make sufficient contributions, they will have the opportunity to receive the ultimate treasure reward in the future."
When the first group of participants finally received the promised treasure, the entire Star Palace was in an uproar.
"This...this is really for me?"
A newly joined Immortal King trembled as he accepted the high-grade treasured battle sword, hardly believing his eyes.
"of course."
"I am in charge of distributing them," said Yin Yin Wang with a smile.
"As long as you are loyal to the Star Palace, the Palace Master will never mistreat his own people."
Of course, if someone betrays him, or withdraws after obtaining the treasure, Xingchen can only say that he is not someone to be trifled with.
The news spread like wildfire, attracting even more powerful individuals. The strength of the Star Palace expanded at a visible rate.
After doing all this, Xingchen also went into seclusion. Before going into seclusion, he left behind tens of thousands of treasures, which were more than enough for Xingchen Palace to develop.
He also intends to continue his work analyzing rare treasures.
And his secret techniques.
He is now considered a master of the universe, so how could he not have his own ultimate secret technique for mastering the universe?
