Around the enormous round table, the densely packed thrones were divided into five levels.

2 meters wide, 10 meters wide, 50 meters wide, 200 meters wide, 1000 meters wide, and the Divine Body of all the powerful beings are perfectly matched with the chairs. Among them, some Universe Overlord such as the Lord of Tian Shi Palace, the Void Palace Master, and the Undying Venerable are sitting on the 200-meter-wide divine throne.

And at the highest point...

On the majestic throne, the Universe Master sat at the highest point, looking down upon all other powerful human beings. They were the super beings from the five major forces of the Human Race.

This majestic throne, 1000 meters wide, is entirely gleaming gold except for the two central thrones, which are black and exude a somber aura. One of the black thrones is faintly carved with a Giant Axe, and sits a giant man with thick fingers and disheveled long hair, resembling Savage. However, the other black throne next to him is empty, with no one sitting on it.

Each of the other golden thrones was occupied by a towering figure.

"Chaos," the Wild Savage Giant and the Giant Axe Founder chuckled mockingly, "These little fellows are all unhappy because of your favoritism towards Lu Yan'an! Don't you, the 'teacher,' have anything to say?"

"What a load of rubbish!"

A chilling coldness that pierced the very soul spread through the air. "Giving them treasures is an act of kindness! Not giving them treasures is perfectly justified! Want Supreme Treasure? Let them fight for them themselves, humph... Here you are, eyeing the treasure of a genius—no, now I should call him a powerful figure—and complaining about unfairness. Isn't that laughable? I can give my own treasures to whomever I want, and no one has the right to say anything."

"In my opinion, it's better to strike once to avoid a hundred more. Those who are jumping the gun should be locked up in the prison of the Initial Universe."

"That's going too far. We can't just stop the Venerable from talking about it. They didn't rob or kill anyone, so they don't deserve to be imprisoned in the Venerable Prison."

On the dozen or so majestic thrones amidst the mist of Lake Namo, each voice spoke, expressing their own opinions and failing to reach a consensus.

"Gentlemen," the City Lord of Chaos on the golden throne said with a smile, "This Lu Yan'an's disciple is not me, but my junior brother Darkness. The Supreme Treasure he obtained have nothing to do with me."

"Regardless of how many Supreme Treasure he possessed during his time World Lord, based on my understanding of my junior brother, he would at most bestow upon him one Soul-type Supreme Treasure. After all, he is only a World Lord; bestowing too many Supreme Treasure upon him would be tantamount to pushing him into the abyss," said the City Lord of Chaos.

"Ah?"

"So, this is Supreme Treasure he obtained himself? Was he only given a Soul-type Supreme Treasure? What about the other three Supreme Treasure? Did he obtain them through fortuitous encounters?"

"This Supreme Treasure is no ordinary thing; it's not something you can obtain through mere chance or wishful thinking. It's usually left behind by extraordinary beings, deliberately reserved for their successors."

"Who cares about some super being... the fact that this treasure has fallen into the hands of our Human Race is a good thing."

Amidst the murmurs and chatter of conversations, the crowd on the dozen or so thrones was abuzz with discussion.

"The other Venerable are waiting; let's begin the meeting." From between the two black thrones, the Giant Axe Founder with the Giant Axe carved into its surface looked at the City Lord of Chaos on his left and said, "Chaos, as is customary, you will preside over the meeting."

"Hmm." The City Lord of Chaos nodded to indicate that he understood.

Amidst thousands of densely packed divine thrones, Lu Yan'an was also exchanging ideas with some Universe Venerable beside him. Although everyone was familiar with the procedures of this Supreme Council, some details could only be understood through firsthand experience.

The thrones in this Hall of Gods are divided into five levels, allowing one to see the figures of those one level higher than oneself. As for conversation... one can actively converse with those of the same or lower level. For example, Lu Yan'an can only converse with four-star experts (Elementary Venerable) and five-star experts (Universe Intermediate Venerable)! The lowest level, Elementary Venerable, can only converse with other Elementary Venerable.

"Everyone!" A gentle yet majestic voice rang out, and the entire Hall of Gods fell silent.

Lu Yan'an immediately recognized the voice... it was the voice of the City Lord of Chaos!

"Every time the Supreme Council is convened, it's because of a major event that could affect the entire race." The City Lord of Chaos's voice was majestic, resounding throughout the entire Hall of Gods, and no one dared to interrupt. "This Supreme Council is convened because... the race war is about to begin."

"Is a tribal war about to begin?"

Almost all the Universe Venerable wore calm expressions, clearly indicating that the arrival of this inter-clan war was expected by many. Only some newly promoted Universe Venerable who had not yet experienced inter-clan wars showed puzzled expressions.

"The inter-clan wars are bloody battles waged by the Four Peak Races the Primal Universe for control of the star sectors where they survive and thrive. It's a decisive war where victory is not an option. This opening... is no exception! If you want to obtain Supreme Treasure and make a great contribution to your race, this is your chance! You can browse the detailed information first," said the City Lord of Chaos.

In front of the numerous powerful figures seated on their densely packed divine thrones, a screen floated up, displaying a wealth of detailed information.

Lu Yan'an was also staring at the screen in front of him...

The Human Race currently possesses 1008 star sectors, with each sector establishing a Universe Country, totaling 1008 Universe Country Human Race. Through countless inter-clan wars over endless Years, resulting in the sacrifice of countless powerful individuals, most of the star sector territories of the Universe Country enjoy peaceful lives, except for the star sector Universe Country nations bordering the Zerg, the Monster Race, and the Machine Race, which are constantly embroiled in war.

In order to better recuperate and thrive, the Four Peak Races agreed to hold a race war every epoch to determine the ownership of adjacent star sectors. During this period, each side would cease hostilities and recuperate.

At the same time, this inter-clan war, as a struggle for survival territory among the Four Peak Races, was originally created to deplete the number of lower and middle-level powerhouses within each clan! This was to prevent the various clans from engaging in infighting due to excessive resource consumption at the lower levels! This intention naturally destined it to be unfriendly to those below the Venerable level.

Without exception! This is the largest territorial war in the Primal Universe since its birth, and it will last forever. Of course, every tribal war is fraught with danger, but it also yields countless treasures. As long as one has enough military merit, even the most Supreme Treasure can be freely exchanged!

For the sake of the Supreme Treasure, even the super beings of the Four Peak Races in the universe will engage in a frenzied battle here! Every race war is a terrible massacre... Every time it opens, Overlord- level figures fall within it.

It's bloody and cruel, yet it drives countless powerful individuals to madness! After all, wars between races are incredibly brutal and naked: if I'm stronger than you, I can destroy you; if I'm stronger than you, I can plunder you. There's no mercy! No retreat! If humanity retreats even a step, its strength weakens, but other races will advance and become stronger. Over time, this will cause humanity's strength to decline continuously, and its territory to shrink. Therefore... it's destined that there can be no soft-heartedness.

Bloody and terrifying tribal wars can drive many people with weak wills insane and cause mental breakdowns. And this is a common phenomenon. Those who think they love killing may not care about killing one or a hundred people, but when they actually kill tens of thousands, millions, or even hundreds of millions of lives, especially with the various illusions and hallucinations on the battlefield, it is easier to amplify their emotions and cause mental breakdowns and deaths. Indeed, there are quite a few strong people who have died as a result!

The Four Peak Races waged war against each other, and also against alliances with other races... These wars were truly overwhelming, and the amount of war debris generated was terrifying. The God Kingdom and so on were far from enough to store the war waste, so the human elites even created a special star system to store this war debris! For example, the Mulong Star Region, where City Lord Luo went to Taobao in the original work, was one of the many Garbage Starfield.

"Hmm, military merits?" Lu Yan'an looked at another document below.

In tribal wars, killing powerful members of the opposing faction automatically earns military merit points! These merit points can be used to exchange for other treasures, including but not limited to Supreme Treasure, Heavy Treasure, Hunyuan Unit, and rare items. In fact, it can be said that as long as you have enough military merit points, you can obtain everything that Human Race possesses!

This is no small-scale skirmish in Outer Region Battlefield. Since its essence is to deplete a large number of the lower and middle classes, the rewards offered by the human elite are extremely generous, with the aim of forcing those who go to participate to fight desperately. After consuming a large amount of the lower and middle classes' "human resources," the surviving "Gu Kings" will receive intensive training from their clans!
