For the time being, Han Wu was still complying with the United Association's arrangements and could not be considered a troublemaker.
The United Association also had no reason to impose restrictions on Han Wu because of the circumstances he had displayed.
But the other factions did not see it that way.
The Eight-Star Zone had once been utterly insignificant, only to rise abruptly recently and produce seven Plane Level Eternal Stage powerhouses in one stroke.
That alone had already shattered the worldview of some long-established factions.
Yet judging by the current situation, Han Wu alone could produce dozens of Plane Level Eternal Stage powerhouses on his own.
Looking upward through the faction rankings, what faction could possibly compare?
With merely the dozens of Plane Level Eternal Stage Avatars before them, Han Wu could raise the Eight-Star Zone to second place in the faction rankings.
If Han Wu was not restricted or absorbed into their ranks,
then before long, even the United Association would have to rank beneath the Eight-Star Zone.
This was something the many factions absolutely did not wish to see.
They could tolerate the United Association standing above their heads.
After all, the United Association was a faction jointly formed by numerous factions and was completely neutral.
But if the Eight-Star Zone rose above them, the implications would be entirely different.
The Eight-Star Zone was an individual faction; it could even be considered Han Wu's faction alone.
If he took a dislike to any faction, he could directly initiate a faction war.
The only ones to suffer losses would be the other factions.
How would the United Association manage things then?
If Han Wu truly became ruthless, he might even deal with the United Association along with them.
The more the faction leaders present thought about it, the
