"Great Emperor, the Celestial Cloud Empire has grown far too arrogant! Their momentum has already eclipsed our Qianyuan Empire!"
"That's right! We may have always been called number two, but we've never been pushovers. Even the World Dragon Empire had to show us some respect!"
"What kind of foundation could the Celestial Cloud Empire possibly have? They have none at all! All they have is one powerful Great Emperor. If that Great Emperor dies, the Celestial Cloud Empire will surely be annihilated!"
"The last time, our Great Emperor was forced to wait outside for hours. It was an utter humiliation, the height of arrogance!"
In the imperial court, minister after minister spoke with righteous indignation. They all felt suppressed and refused to accept the situation. By now, word that the Celestial Cloud Empire was ranked first had spread throughout the entire Mortal Realm.
