Global Crossing: Empire of Stars

After giving the spoils a preliminary sort, the banquet gradually drew to a close.

This expedition across the galaxy had brought the Empire ample resources for its growth. For a long time to come, it would have no need to worry about a shortage of psionic minerals.

After the chaos of war, the entire Empire entered a period of quiet recovery, using its abundant resources to accelerate development.

In April of 370 in the New Galactic Calendar, several years passed in the blink of an eye.

The entire Milky Way Galaxy seemed to have settled into peace. Apart from the occasional reports of the Tide of Darkness slaughtering cities and annihilating nations, the high-level civilizations that had once ranked among the galaxy's foremost powers had all fallen silent. The stars gradually grew calm, and it seemed everyone had forgotten that the Galactic Hegemony Competition was still underway.

"Your Majesty, the Naram Assembly, held once every hundred years, is about to begin. The 'Sacred Rite' will be held at that time, and the leaders of every branch tribe will be eligible to compete for the position of Tampas High Chieftain. I have decided to go all in!" Liu Jingchang's round figure appeared in the holographic projection.

"Please grant me permission, Your Majesty, and give me the authority to make decisions as the situation demands!"

"Have you made adequate preparations? I recall earlier intelligence mentioning that anyone wishing to challenge the tribal high chieftain at the Naram Assembly must be a branch-tribe leader who takes the field in person, while the other side may choose a trusted aide to fight in their place." Lin Zhichen looked at the still-round man before him. No matter how he looked at him, he didn't seem like a brawny warrior who could wrestle a giant beast.
