In the universe of Voidborn, the top ten families of Earth were legendary. The Zhang Celestial Clan of China led the list, masters of spiritual cultivation and the creators of two Void Monarch warriors.
Volkov Dynasty of Russia trained brutal combat fighters, molded like soldiers from childhood.
The Aurelian Dominion of the United States combined cultivation with advanced starship technology.
Singh Eternal House of India specialized in energy manipulation and meditation techniques.
Carteris Bloodline of the United Kingdom was famous for royal bloodline techniques. Ben-Azrael Order of Israel mastered soul techniques and spiritual defenses.
Pharaoh Dynasty of Egypt wielded ancient cosmic relics and artifacts. Silva Nova Clan of Brazil dominated in beast taming and jungle combat.
Takeda Stellar House of Japan was unmatched in precision swordsmanship.
Finally, the Adarkwah-Yadom Family of Ghana, once among the strongest families, retained a seat in the top ten largely due to the influence of Steven Adarkwah-Yadom, former head of the Starfall Covenant.
Without his legacy, the family would have long been forgotten.
Currently, Earth's strongest warriors were a mix of legends. Atlas Volkov — Void Monarch Level 9 (Late Stage)
Liang Shen — Void Monarch Level 8
Arjun Dev Singh — Void Monarch Level 8
Eleanor Carteris — Void Monarch Level 7
Azrael Ben-Kohen — Void Monarch Level 7
Ra-Khepri Pharaoh — Void Monarch Level 7
Valtherion Draven — ??? (Cultivation Level Unknown)
These warriors protected Earth from alien invasions, but due to politics, their family backgrounds were sealed from the public.
Michael's parents were not on Earth either; they were serving their military duties when he was two. His father, Mikhail Adarkwah-Yadom, had reached Stellar Lord, while his mother, Anya Adarkwah-Yadom, was a Planet King. Michael had been raised by his grandfather, Ben, ever since. Memories of his distant family haunted him, especially during the trial with the Solar System Oracle, where illusions of his parents appeared, threatening to destabilize his body. The pressure was extreme; one misstep could have caused his body to explode under the spiritual strain.
Focusing entirely on the task, Michael split his consciousness. One part pushed to break through Awakening Stage 7, while the other attempted to connect with the Oracle. Blood streamed from his eyes like a river, his strength fading with each passing second. Yet he refused to fail. Driving straight into the barrier, Michael shattered Awakening Stage 7 and leaped into Energy Gatherer. His body absorbed cosmic energy, refilling his spiritual reserves and fortifying his resolve. Step by step, day by day, he advanced closer to the Oracle. Within fifteen days, he had taken 15,000 steps, nearing the core of the Solar System's consciousness.
Finally, with every ounce of strength left, he reached the Oracle. A brilliant beam of energy erupted from Michael's body, enveloping the chamber. The Solar System acknowledged him as its new master, bestowing its energy upon him after centuries of silence. The trial was complete. Michael awoke to the astonished faces of the Starfall Covenant, some cheering, some burning with envy.
Galaxy Lord Donald, overseeing the proceedings, congratulated Michael and extended an invitation to Vuitton Academy. Michael declined, reasoning that joining a foreign school could jeopardize Earth's claim to the A1 Starship. Instead, he chose to enroll in Adayas Academy, under the guidance of his grandfather and the history of Steven Adarkwah-Yadom, determined to protect both his family and Ghana's place among the top ten families.
Descending from the MAIZE chamber, Becky Adarkwah-Yadom ran to embrace him. "I was so worried," she whispered, her voice trembling. "I'm proud of you." Michael returned the embrace, promising never to disappoint her. Moments later, Lin Kai knelt before him. "Your Highness…" he said.
Michael blinked, confused. "We are friends. Don't call me that."
Lin hesitated. "But… you are the Lord of the Solar System."
Michael's expression hardened. "Yes… but we are still friends."
Before more words could be exchanged, a sharp voice cut through the hall. "A seven-year-old claiming to be the Lord of a Solar System? How laughable." Stepping forward was a tall Russian youth, silver-haired and imposing. His name was Ivan Korovin, a rising prodigy from the Volkov Dynasty, his aura crackling with energy. He challenged Michael openly, eager to prove his own strength.
Michael bowed slightly. "I accept your challenge… but after the inheritance ceremony."
The hall fell silent. Everyone understood the magnitude of what had just occurred. Michael, only seven, had claimed the Solar System Legacy, a power that could shift the balance of the universe. Yet the journey ahead would be even more dangerous, for forces beyond Earth were already aware of his rise.
Could this young boy survive the battles to come? Would he protect Earth, his family, and the Solar System entrusted to him? The answers would unfold in the trials ahead, but one truth was clear: Michael had just begun his path, and the universe would never be the same.
