"Guen, under my teacher's orders, I've come in person to deliver this message: you've joined the Human Race's Supreme Council and been granted a seat. Another Supreme Council meeting will be held soon."
In the Virtual Universe, Venerable Guiyi had come personally to tell Guen the news.
The Supreme Council was a meeting that only members of the Human Race who had reached Universe Venerable or higher could attend. It dealt with major matters concerning the Human Race and determined the future course of the race's development.
According to Venerable Tanshi, in the beginning, only Universe Venerables had attended the Supreme Council. He had been one of its founders. Back then, Universe Venerables had been the undisputed pillars of the race. Only later did Universe Masters gradually join and take the lead. Especially after the God Lord fell, the Universe Venerables' limited perspective had gradually led the Universe Masters to make decisions and then simply inform them. But the tradition of holding the council had remained.
For any member of the Human Race, joining this council was a source of pride. It meant standing among the strongest in the universe.
Guen had been looking forward to the Supreme Council meeting. For one thing, he had never attended one before. For another, Feimo, Yingjun, and Venerable Kongnan—who had recently renamed himself Qiming through a Secret Method—had all been asking if he knew any inside information. But nothing had been confirmed, and he had only made a few guesses of his own, so he couldn't go around talking about them. Still, it was frustrating to feel like even he had no idea what was happening in the universe.
The Supreme Council meeting came sooner than he had imagined.
The meeting was held in the Hall of Gods on Mount of Gods. Guen
