The Dragon Duel, meant to showcase military might and technology, ultimately swept through the entire Chengyun Dynasty capital region in an unexpected manner.
Darkness exterminating pestilence, ancient revival, human liberation, pestilence symbiosis...
This game among the upper echelons had affected far too many areas.
Over a hundred million civilians in the capital region alone had been impacted, not to mention the costs of postwar reconstruction and disinfecting fortifications afterward.
At the same time.
Countless messages flew like snowflakes toward the present-day Six Nations.
Announcing the end of this Dragon Duel.
Hua Qianqiu had usurped another's position and advanced to Progenitor by harnessing the Power of Pestilence.
Tu Luming had achieved complete liberation, unleashing the human body's latent potential and transforming her form.
Only half of their pestilence battle had been broadcast live.
The official statement declared that Hua Qianqiu, having been contaminated by the Power of Pestilence [Black Tortoise], had betrayed the Chengyun Dynasty and humanity, and had been executed.
He had revived ancient Plague Exterminators and guided the Fallen Cult Leader into Chengyun to sow chaos...
Although Hua Qianqiu had enjoyed immense prestige, even that could not absolve him of crimes involving a public enemy of Chengyun like Cui Ni. People were shocked by Hua Qianqiu's detestable true face, though some also questioned the authenticity of the information.
Very soon, the Chengyun court publicly announced the results of this Dragon-class battle and the subsequent incidents.
"Knife Sharpener [Xing Lian] has been executed."
"Fallen Cult Leader [Cui Ni] has been executed."
"[Hua Qianqiu] has been executed."
"Dragon-class pestilence [Scent Fox] has been executed."
"Dragon-class pestilence [Poppy Demon] has been executed."
"Citizens."
"Today's Chengyun is another peaceful day."
