At this moment, the vast, circular hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Thousands of gazes converged.
Among these gazes were curiosity and scrutiny, but most of all, a deep-seated reverence.
Everyone who could be here was a council member of the Federation.
They were the elites who had clawed their way up from a population of tens of billions in the Xia Federation to stand at the very pinnacle of power.
They naturally knew of the power of Secret Martial Artists.
Some council members had even cultivated Secret Martial Arts themselves. However, having spent too much energy in other areas to reach their current positions, and with their advanced age causing their Qi and Blood to decline, most of them were stuck in the Qi Blood Realm. Only a select few had broken through to the Martial Arts Family level.
As for Refining God Venerables, they understood the power of that level better than anyone.
