  They were confused.

  At this time, another person walked out from behind the gate, then another, and another… Very soon, dozens of people swarmed out and pushed Mahel aside.

  “W-what’s going on? Isn’t today the welcome meeting?”

  The people present were stunned and lost.

  This time, Han Xiao smiled and slowly said, “Don’t have to be surprised, these people are all rookies who will be joining the association today. Guys, let’s welcome them.”

  As soon as he said that, everyone was bewildered.

  You’re not f*cking pulling my leg, are you?

  Even the three Universal Civilizations’ direct members on the side had their eyes wide open with shock.

  There were no signs before today. They all thought today was an ordinary welcome meeting. None of them thought such a surprise would happen.

  Every welcome meeting was hosted for just one person. When had the association ever accepted so many rookies at once?

  Plus, when did so many new Beyond Grade As appear in the universe? There were as many of them as a third of the association! It was completely impossible!

  What festival is it today? Is the president joking with us?

  He must be.

  While these thoughts flashed past their minds, they subconsciously sized up these dozens of ‘rookies’. Suddenly, their bodies shook.

  “Wait a minute, these people look so familiar!”

  “Are they… Primordial Ones‽”

  “How is that possible? The Primordial Ones died centuries ago. They must have purposely dressed up this way!”

  “Aiyo, they really look the same. Their disguise is amazing!”

  The people hastily searched for the information of the Primordial Ones online and matched with the revivors present. They were all surprised.

  Manison looked at Han Xiao with a frown and asked with a deep voice, “What’s the meaning of this? Finding a group of people to disguise themselves as Primordial Ones and even letting them join the association. What is this nonsense‽”

  “You think it’s fake too?”

  Han Xiao glanced at him and was not surprised. After all, to those who did not know about it, this was way too unbelievable. Anyone normal would doubt it.

  He slowly stood up and looked around. His grin grew bigger as he said firmly, “I know you all have doubts, but these people are none other than the Beyond Grade As who existed in history. They have awakened from the river of time, revived, and decided to join the association to shine for the Beyond Grade A class!”

  As he said that, the venue became dead silent.

  Everyone present was completely dumbfounded.

  That was, everyone except Kasuyi, who was shivering with excitement. He was the only other person who knew about the Sanctums, and he immediately linked them.

  Is this what Black Star did when he went missing for four months‽

  “…Tell me, is this true?” Kasuyi turned and stared at Han Xiao. He could not wait to hear the answer, afraid that this was just a joke.

  Han Xiao gave him a firm look and said slowly, “On my honor, I hereby promise that this is not a joke!”

  At this instant, joy, shock, admiration, and other emotions exploded in Kasuyi’s heart!

  He only had one thought in his mind…

  Black Star… did it!

  At this time, Beiger, who stood at the front, chuckled. He stepped up, facing everyone’s shocked looks, and said calmly, “Youngsters, times… have changed!”

  As soon as he said that, the energy of dozens of Beyond Grade As shot up the sky without holding back!

  Boom!

  With a loud noise, the rooftop of the entire venue was blown away. The floor and walls cracked!

  The enormous pressure swept the entire planet. At this instant, all lives on Planet Finn were pressed onto the floor almost simultaneously. Deafening alarms echoed across the planet!

  The Beyond Grade As present were all remote projections and could not feel the impact, but all of their organizations had an agency on Planet Finn.

  Almost instantly, everyone received an emergency report from their agency. All of their radars were showing dozens of Beyond Grade A energy sources, coming from the dozens of people right in front of them! No evidence could be more solid!

  At this instant, the expression of all the members present changed drastically. Their faces were filled with disbelief and aghast.

  This is true? The Primordial Ones are alive‽

  Impossible!

  Everyone was dumbfounded!

  An irresistible shock instantly shattered their view of the world, leaving only endless confusion.

  At this point, almost no word could describe the shock they were feeling.

  Even Manison was stunned for a few seconds. He turned around hastily and stared at Han Xiao.

  “What in the world did you do? How did they revive‽”

  Like waking up from a dream, eyes filled with disbelief focused on Han Xiao.

  These revivors were all brought into the association by Black Star. He definitely knew all about how this happened!

  “Black Star, how the hell did this happen‽”

  “Answer us!”

  “Speak!”

  The people were in an uproar, wanting to know the answers.

  Seeing how worked up everyone was, Han Xiao smiled and said calmly, “In this world, there’s a special information form phenomenon named the Sanctum Revival. Once you step into the Beyond Grade A territory, you will leave a set of backup data. Even if you die and leave absolutely nothing behind, not even ashes, you can still be revived through the Sanctum Revival.

  “This will only happen once for everyone, meaning all Beyond Grade As have a second life… and using this phenomenon is how I revived them from their graves in history!”

  Having received a clear answer, everyone was astonished.

  The shock and jubilation exploded in everyone’s mind!

  There’s such a mysterious phenomenon that only works on Beyond Grade As in the universe? Is this another Space Wonder‽

  Everyone realized that this was a gift to all Beyond Grade As!

  If they had heard about this from someone else, they would most likely have laughed at it and not believed it. Now, however, an example of it happening appeared right in front of them, proving what Han Xiao said was true.

  The next second, the way everyone looked at Han Xiao changed.

  Black Star had revived so many Primordial Ones, which meant that he already controlled the method of using it. He explained that it existed, but he never said anything about how to use the Sanctum Revival. Therefore, for now, Black Star was probably the only way they could enjoy the benefits of ‘Sanctum Revival’‽

  Thinking from another perspective, it had only been about half a year since Black Star became the president. Logically, he might have discovered the method of Sanctum Revival long ago and kept it hidden all this time if he did not become the president…

  This moment, everyone felt that electing Black Star as the president was the wisest decision they could have made!

  Han Xiao looked around at everyone’s expression.

  “Since everyone no longer has doubts, don’t forget the subject of today’s welcome meeting…”

  Han Xiao raised his hand. The seats around the round table started moving, and rows of new seats extended from under the ground. These were for the revivors. Then, Han Xiao clapped his hands.

  “Everyone, let’s welcome the return of the old era.”

  Chapter 1260: Times Have Changed |

  Pa pa pa!

  With Han Xiao in the lead, everyone could only suppress their inner shock and temporarily applaud. A feeling of witnessing history being made spontaneously rose in them.

  However, the scene happening in their minds was probably akin to being robbed by a bunch of thugs while they were happily camping and feasting on hotpot in the wilds. This was too damned ‘surprising’!


  Seeing this, the dozens of Revivors smiled and took their seats one after another. Seeing Mahel standing stupidly on the same spot, some of the Primordial Ones kindly pulled this little brother to his seat as well.

  The applause slowly stopped, and Han Xiao sat down once more before looking at Beiger and the others. “Everyone, would you like to introduce yourselves?”

  “I feel that there’s no need.” Beiger waved his hand as he surveyed the scene. “If they want to know who we are, they just have to check up on our history.”

  Everyone subconsciously nodded. The Primordial Ones were all famous, so every Beyond Grade A would have heard their names before.

  At this moment, Dylan raised his smooth chin slightly. “Although I’m not a Primordial One, I believe everyone here should also know of me, right?”

  Everyone turned to face him. Among the Revivors, there were a few that were not Primordial Ones, so they were not as popular and well known as the rest.

  “Who are you?” Sun Hunter was curious.

  “Tsk, there’s really someone who doesn’t recognize me?” Dylan glanced at him. “Little thing, listen up. I’m the Elf King Dylan. Go home and brush up on your historical knowledge. Don’t ask such ignorant questions next time.”

  Sun Hunter was stunned for a moment before turning furious.

  Do you even know how to talk, to dare call me a little thing!

  If it was not my remote projection here, I’d conjure dozens of gun barrels into your mouth and blow you to death!

  On the other hand, many of the Mages felt a jolt in their spirits.

  “So, it turns out to be the famous ‘Elf King’ from the history of magic. It’s said that you took a different approach, pioneering a special elven spell system. Now it has become the mainstream magic system of the elves, but unfortunately, due to your sudden death, some of the mysteries and secrets have been lost forever. I hope I will have the opportunity to ask you for advice in the future.”

  Austin could not help but speak, showing his goodwill. A Mage’s desire for spells was akin to the Mechanic’s curiosity about technology.

  Hearing this, Dylan instead lowered his head to pick at his nails before casually saying, “It’ll depend on my mood. I normally do not like to converse with untalented Mages, but if my mood is good, I could share some information.”

  Austin’s expression froze, and he shut up. Seeing this, the other Mages that wished to talk also closed their mouths, not wanting to flatter a non-responsive person.

  Seeing this, many of them gave Dylan side-eyes.

  It turns out that this person spoke with such a strange tone. No wonder he died so badly in history—he deserved it!

  Seeing that the atmosphere had become a little delicate, Beiger moved away from the subject and smiled. “I have to say, this association is run well. During our time, there wasn’t such a good environment. The people who established the association are really long-sight and talented!”

  “I feel that way as well.” Han Xiao smiled.

  Hearing this, everyone glanced at Han Xiao and at Beiger, whose expressions remained unchanged.

  These two were really shameless, one flattered so obviously, while the other was bold enough to accept it.

  Beiger turned back to look at the rest as he spoke in a friendly manner. “We have many days ahead of us. I hope that we will have the chance to get to know each other better.”

  Everyone nodded and responded without putting on an arrogant expression. The Primordial Ones were the pioneers of this path, so respect was definitely needed.

  The newcomer orientation finally returned to its original role. Both groups of people communicated with each other for a while, allowing the dozens of Revivors to integrate into the association. Even if the other members of the association felt this matter to be hard to believe, they had to accept the fact that these ‘elderly’ had risen from their coffins.

  While the Revivors were accepted on the surface, everyone was still filled with doubts. They were very curious about how Black Star had discovered the phenomenon of Sanctum Revival, how he convinced the Revivors to join the association, and where they had stayed until now.

  But Han Xiao behaved splendidly, lightly skimming past all these questions without properly explaining anything.

  Everyone felt as though they had an itch in their hearts, their impression of Han Xiao turning more mysterious. They all began to feel awed by him. No one knew how much strength he had hidden, only feeling that he was unfathomable.

  But precisely because of this, the rest of the Association felt relaxed. In the past, everyone obeyed the rules of the association for protection and resources, but another important reason had been added.

  The Sanctum Revival gave everyone assurance. Originally, there were still some people worried about the three Universal Civilizations, counting gains and losses, but their mentality had now stabilized, their fear of the three Universal Civilizations diminishing significantly.

  Just as everyone was busy chatting, Manison sat by the side silently observing, his heart full of shock.

  Black Star, turns out this is the trump card you prepared. Beautiful! The Sanctum Revival is of extraordinary significance for us. Not only will this enhance the confidence of members in facing risks, but it also strengthens the cohesion of the association. The group will be more united than ever before.

  Furthermore, the resurrection of the historical Beyond Grade As is a way to quickly replenish our numbers, more efficient than slowly wait for a new Beyond Grade A to be born. The strength of the association will expand greatly in a short time, being reborn and breaking through the safety line of the three Universal Civilizations at once. Even they will have to weigh up the consequences if they wish to make a move… With this, I don’t have to risk launching the Intelligent Plague.

  Manison sighed in his mind.

  He had always been worried that Black Star’s route of peace would form the basis of confidence for the three Universal Civilizations and was worried that the influence of Black Star alone would not be able to affect the determination of the three Universal Civilizations. However, it seemed now that Black Star’s response was completely out of his expectations, allowing him to even be relieved of his hidden cards.

  Manison had no choice but to admit that Black Star’s move was far more effective than his plan of sacrificing eight hundred soldiers to wipe out a thousand of the enemy’s soldiers.

  While the two of them were typically at odds with each other, he acknowledged Han Xiao’s ability and was quite relieved this time that he ‘did not believe in the wrong person’.

  On the other hand, Kasuyi glanced at Han Xiao from time to time, his favorability of him increasing.

  Kasuyi was aware of most of the facts behind the Sanctum Revival and was probably the only person there other than Han Xiao who knew of the fact that there were no limits to the Sanctum Revivals. He was naturally more excited than anyone else.

  He did not know why Han Xiao was pretending that there was only a single chance for the Sanctum Revivals, but after a little thought, he could guess the general intention and naturally would not expose it on the spot.

  At this moment, Kasuyi could not help but feel fortunate.

  Thankfully, my relationship with Black Star is not too bad. I’ve never offended him and even chose him as my companion to explore the Celestial Star Alliance. If it was someone else, even if they know the existence of the Sanctums, they would probably be just like me, having no clue even for the next few decades… I don’t know how he even managed to master the Sanctum Revivals.

  Kasuyi was unaware of the Holy Accord, so he thought that Han Xiao had gotten inspiration from their trip to the secondary dimensions. He secretly sighed to have found himself a reliable comrade.

  While the majority of the association members were pleasantly surprised and excited, the descendants of the three Universal Civilizations had solemn expressions.

  From a personal point of view, the Sanctum Rev
ival was indeed a divine revelation for the Beyond Grade As, but from the perspective of the civilization, if the Beyond Grade A Association possessed such a method, it would be earth-shattering news for the direct descendants.

  The Beyond Grade As now have an extra life, so unstable factors cannot be removed once and for all. This will be troublesome. Even if they can be cleansed once, the deceased will definitely learn how to be smart after reviving, turning to hide and plot their revenge in secret.

  The core of this problem was Black Star. Only he had the means to perform a Sanctum Revival. Unless he was killed first, or the method of Sanctum Revival was obtained from him, it would be almost impossible to split the Beyond Grade A Association.

  The direct descendants frowned as similar thoughts appeared in their minds.

  They had more or less received the news that the three Universal Civilizations planned to attack the Beyond Grade A Association, but at this juncture, Black Star had revealed his true colors, deliberately exposing this method. In their opinion, this was undoubtedly a warning signal. The three Universal Civilizations would be frightened with this move, such that they would not act rashly.

  Moreover, the high-end combat strength of the association had suddenly soared up by a third. Even if the upper echelons of the civilizations wished to carry out their plan, they also had to consider the issue of their costs.

  For the entire Beyond A realm, he did not hesitate to take the pressure upon himself… This is not like Black Star’s usual style.

  Thinking of this, the eyes of the direct descendants looking at Han Xiao turned meaningful.

  Han Xiao also noticed the gazes of these direct descendants, but his face was calm, and he secretly smiled.

  The Calamity of the Supers was inevitable, and conflicts would eventually erupt. Right now, he had become the detonator of the Calamity of the Supers, but his fundamental goal had not changed. He had to find a way to keep the three Universal Civilizations in check, so as to control the intensity of the conflict during the Calamity of the Supers and save more strength to deal with the World Tree Civilization.

  His other objective was for self-consideration. Only when the entire Grade was cohesive could his position be more stable.
