Qi Sheng withdrew his gaze from the Azure Star Sea Area.
He had watched the entire three-way battle between Shuyan, the Misty Abyss Clan, and the Ascension Clan.
Just as he had predicted, Shuyan had the greatest potential for growth. All it needed was one opportunity to rise rapidly.
This war was Shuyan's fortuitous encounter.
It had allowed Shuyan to distinguish itself and officially become the overlord controlling two sea areas.
But Shuyan wasn't the only one who had impressed him in this war. There was also another living being: Night Abyss.
Qi Sheng looked back over the Misty Abyss Clan's relatively brief rise.
He saw how Night Abyss, with outstanding talent and determination, had repeatedly led the Misty Abyss Clan to carve a path through encircling enemies, seize resources, and break through the limits imposed on the clan.
It was also Night Abyss who had raised the Misty Abyss Clan to heights it could never have reached on its own.
At the final moment,
Night Abyss had stayed behind to protect the clan, prepared to shed its last drop of blood for them. That resolve and sense of responsibility showed the qualities every commander should have.
Qi Sheng admired beings who, even within a fate destined to end in tragedy, could bring their talents to the fullest.

Any advantage based on modern skills and experience was negligible over the long development
