At Zenith Society in the Serenity Hall, a well-dressed, refined man took out a parchment scroll from his treasure
chest. The parchment’s cover boasted three bold words: Astonishing World List.
Zenith Society’s Astonishing World List housed the most elite warriors globally. There were no age restrictions, no
gender biases, and no discrimination based on age. It was solely based on merit. However, it was a given that those
who made it onto the list were celebrated and legendary figures!
Breaking the seal, the refined man carefully unfolded the parchment. The contents were concise, listing only ten
names.
From top to bottom:
Top on the list: Arion Foyer of Sacred Wyrm Summit Second on the list: Alaric Drakon of Dragon Guard
Third on the list: Seth Hughes, the Sword Whisperer of West Lucozia Fourth on the list: Cyrus Hadley, Guildmaster of
Sword UnionFifth on the list: Alloy Marshall, Guildmaster of Celestial AllianceSixth on the list: Penelope Solace,
Leader of the Mystic Arts Order

Arts Union Ninth on the list: Elder Shade, Bounty League Leader Tenth on the list: Nestor Wilkins, Palace Attendant
Scanning the list, the refined man picked up a pen. He marked a check next to the name of Nestor Wilkins at
number 10 and then moved the pen upward, checking next to Elder Shade’s name at number nine.
“Report!”
A disciple from Serenity Hall rushed in, handing over a slip with urgent news. ” Guildmaster, I just got word that
Frost Bane, Guildmaster of Frostbane Citadel, has left the city.”
“Oh?”
The refined man raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. Frost Bane had guarded the city for ten years without
stepping outside, and now, unexpectedly, he had broken his own rule.
“Where did Frost Bane go?” he asked.
“He’s heading directly toward Oakvale, likely going to Quandary Mountain,” the disciple reported.
“Scenic Monastery at Quandary Mountain?” The refined man quickly caught on and smirked.
“Interesting,” he said, “First Nestor, then Elder Shade, and now even Frost Bane is in motion. It seems that Logan
Rhys is in for a challenging day.”
Serenity Hall, renowned for selling information, was well-connected and informed. In times of major events,
Serenity Hall always knew first.
For instance, last night, the entire Oakvale was already in turmoil. But this morning, there was even more
commotion from various directions.
“Report!”
While he was contemplating, another disciple from Serenity Hall hurried in and presented a message slip.
“Guildmaster, from the direction of West Lucozia, there’s a sword aura rapidly approaching.”
“Sword aura? Who is it?” the refined man immediately asked.
“Judging by the sword’s intent, it should be Seth Hughes, the Sword Whisperer of West Lucozia!” the disciple
reported.
“Even Seth Hughes is making an appearance.”

and Martial Arts Union will also show some movement. The entire world is about to experience a seismic shift.”
The Astonishing World List, with five out of its top ten elite legendary warriors in action, was an unprecedented
occurrence. The established world order was inevitably on the brink of disruption.
Whether this turn of events was a blessing or a curse remained uncertain.
At that moment, the refined man seemed to grasp the gravity of the situation and promptly instructed, ” You two,
quickly notify our Chief Guildmaster. It appears that the Astonishing World List is on the verge of a major
reshuffling.”
In Aylka at the Regal Observatory, a slender, white-haired Elder Sage gazed at the disarrayed divination charts on
the table. His brows furrowed deeply.
“How could this happen?”
He found it hard to believe. He attempted divination several times, but all the results were the same. For a
moment, Elder Sage’s expression became even more grim.
“Master, what’s wrong?”
Behind him, a veiled woman spoke up.
