"The Star Sea was fraught with danger."
"They passed the Myriad Worlds Mysterious Tower's Second Floor so quickly. Do you think the Devil Race, Demon Race, and other races won't hear about it?"
"Assassinations! Ambushes! Every conceivable method will be used to snuff out geniuses in the cradle. They will never be allowed to grow."
The elder said coolly, "Besides, the Star Sea itself is perilous beyond measure. Take Tian Hanfeng: an accident while exploring a Forbidden Land killed him on the spot."
Qin Hao drew a deep breath.
He knew the Star Sea was brutal, but he had never imagined it was this brutal.

The Star Sea had only so many resources. For one race to grow stronger, it had to hold the others down.
