Around him, numerous participants immediately recognized his name.
After all, Max Morgan was hardly an unknown figure within the Divine Realm anymore.
Many people had heard about his performance during the Smelting Trial, secret domain of Orion and from the Sword Sovereign's sword.
Some had even personally witnessed it.
However, the moment their senses swept across his cultivation, many expressions immediately changed.
Some revealed disappointment.
Others showed amusement.
A few even displayed open disdain.
To them, fame and strength were two entirely different things. While Max's accomplishments had certainly made him famous, his cultivation at the peak of the Law Awakening Realm simply appeared too low compared to the monstrous geniuses gathered within the Combat Hall.
Most participants here stood at the peak of the Law Refinement Realm, and many had already established impressive reputations throughout their respective races.
