The news of the resurgence of Grand Duke Annan, coupled with the intel that he had successfully ascended, quickly spread throughout the entire Frost Speech province.
The existence of a Gold-tier Transcendent holds calamity-like oppressiveness in any country in this world.
Because with conventional means, forces that lack a Gold-tier Transcendent are completely incapable of resisting those at the Gold tier—the absolute overpowering of Elemental Power is manifested in all aspects.
It's not uncommon for Bronze-tier to defeat Silver-tier, mortals to defeat Bronze-tier, or even mortals to defeat Silver-tier... just like Defu when he first entered the game, and that Diviner Wizard named Jude.
But, Silver defeating Gold is different.
Throughout history—
Even stretching the timeline back to the Second Age, Silver-tier individuals who could defeat Gold-tier Transcendents like Annan could be counted on one hand. They themselves could be called "legends".
