Battle King's words left everyone stunned. Especially Ye Qing, Zhou Lingxue, and the others, who looked at Battle King with puzzled expressions.
Observing their expressions, Battle King immediately continued:
"Those people standing over there are veteran King-tier powerhouses who have lived in seclusion. When I say veteran King-tier powerhouses, I truly mean veterans—they all became King-tier powerhouses before the age of thirty-five."
"Looking at their age now, you can probably imagine how much progress they've made over all these years. None of us knows, which means nobody can gauge their current strength."
"However, one thing is certain beyond doubt: every single one of these elders is an peerless powerhouse. The fact that they've all come out together and appear to be here to welcome you shows just how much importance they attach to you..."
Battle King's words hit the crowd like a sudden thunderclap in a calm sky. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief, scarcely believing what they were hearing.
