As if answering the question, another figure erged from thin air. This ti, a woman with a smooth, radiant white complexion stepped forward gracefully. Her long, straight black hair swayed gently with each movent. The white robe she wore looked elegant, with sky-blue accents around her waist that further highlighted her grace.
With a relaxed stride, she passed by the officials seated in the reserved area. However, as she approached, one by one, they stood and bowed their heads in respect. It was not rely a gesture of courtesy; so even shook her hand as if welcoming a long-lost family mber.
Shen Yu observed the scene carefully. The familiarity displayed by the officials toward this woman only deepened his curiosity. Who exactly was she? No one else here was treated with such warmth, except those of the highest rank.
His eyes followed her every step as she made her way to the front row of seats. When she finally stopped and took a seat on the right, two chairs away from the center, Shen Yu nearly held his breath.
"The other right hand," he muttered softly, his gaze still locked onto the woman.
Questions swirled in his mind, but before he could think further, a loud voice from the main stage shattered his thoughts.
At the center of the stage, a woman stood with unwavering confidence. Isabel, the host, bead brightly, revealing a set of flawless white teeth that glistened under the dazzling lights from multiple angles.
"Are you entertained?" she called out loudly, raising the microphone high, as if inviting a synchronized response from the audience.
Cheers erupted from all corners. Roars of excitent filled the arena, especially from the seats occupied by the Cui race and the Silent Forest Elves. That blazing energy seeped into Isabel's chest, making her heart swell with exhilaration.

"Even more spectacular performances are on the way! But before that, let's welco our esteed guests!" she declared with fiery enthusiasm, spinning a full 360 degrees before raising the microphone once more.
The audience grew even more restless, their curiosity peaking. Large caras stationed in various corners continued to focus on Isabel's face, which radiated excitent.
"Hahaha... Relax, relax. I know you're all eager."
Isabel took a brief breath, then in a dramatic tone, she announced, "Alright… Let us welco… The Honorable Lord ng Hao!"
She deliberately paused between words, a trick she used to build suspense. And as expected, it worked. A thunderous ovation erupted across the arena.
The caras instantly zood in on ng Hao, who was already seated in the front row of the reserved area. With confident movents, he stood up, flashing a broad smile, and waved toward all directions.

The excitent was not limited to the audience from the Guandu Realm; even the Earth race and Silent Forest Elves joined in with passionate cheers. Their faces were filled with admiration, for many of them, the chance to witness soone of such high status in real life was incredibly rare.
Isabel stood calmly at the center of the stage, waiting for the right mont. Her gaze remained focused on ng Hao, ensuring he had enough ti to acknowledge the crowd's applause. A few seconds passed, then ng Hao slowly took his seat again. The overwhelming cheers gradually subsided, and soon, the arena returned to silence.
"Next, The Honorable Lady Hua Ling!" Isabel's powerful voice echoed throughout the venue.
Once again, the audience erupted in a roar of excitent.
Not far from ng Hao, a dignified woman with a smooth, refined face stood gracefully. With a gentle smile, she lifted her hand, waving to the audience, mirroring ng Hao's previous gesture.
However, what was surprising was that the applause for her was just as thunderous. The audience cheered her na repeatedly, their enthusiasm undiminished. Once again, the arena surged with an overwhelming wave of energy.
