Chapter 2037
Over the next three days, the two sovereigns of Violetglory settled the details about the migration with Tianming. They were incredibly thorough and made many requests for territories and resources, ensuring that they got good conditions for leaving their homes. They would also be losing a lot, after all, like the formations their ancestors had toiled hard to make after countless generations, not to mention the many buildings, landscapes, mausoleums, and so on. Giving up on the cultural heritage of an entire star was almost heartless.
If they had enough time, moving some buildings and mausoleums over when the two stars were close enough wouldn't be that big a problem. Other than that, things like legacy caeli and divine materials would be easy to bring with them. All in all, though, it was still an impossibly large effort.
The migration of Flameyellow had been much simpler, as only people had to be moved. Both sovereigns knew that there would definitely be more complications in their case. Even if their subjects were told the real reason for their migration, they wouldn't believe it. If it weren’t for the mere utterance of the words ‘Skyway Quadstar’ and news of a fleet of two thousand divine astralships coming their way, the two sovereigns wouldn't have feared it at all. Currently, nobody but three people of Violetglory knew about their imminent migration. Instead, news of a mysterious stranger was spread by the Violetcloud Imperium and the Divineglory Dynasty.
"Did you hear it? Three days later, Sovereigns Starfeather and Brightscorch are going to duel a stranger two-on-one!"

"Who is it?"
"Both of their administrations said it would be someone we'd be familiar with, but nobody but the sovereigns knows who it really is. The sovereigns are said to have privately arranged it before spreading word of the duel!"
"They're going to fight in the Violetcloud Battlefield!"
"I didn't think that I’d ever see sovereigns fight in person within my lifetime. What a rare chance!"
"Maybe you'd get to see it in your dreams. The whole of Violetglory is buzzing with fervor over the duel. I’ll be surprised if you're able to get a spot at the Violetcloud Battlefield on the day of the duel."
"Are you stupid? There’s projections we can see the duel from in the wondersky realm, you know."
"Oh, right... I let the excitement get to my head."
"Who could that familiar stranger be, then? I don't know any sovereigns from other worlds."
"No idea. It’s intriguing indeed."
"I expect that this event will be even merrier than when Li Tianming faced off against the mysterians, right?"
"It could be! That was a fight between geniuses, but now we're going to see a fight between sovereigns! Those two sovereigns haven't fought for quite a while."
"And not only that, the two of them are fighting against one person! Who could that stranger be?"
The mystery surrounding the entire affair sparked intense discussions across the whole world. Eventually, people flooded into the wondersky realm, pushing its capacity to the limit as the time of the duel approached.
......
Seas of people filled the Violetcloud Battlefield, packed with eager showgoers who appreciated the extra immersive experience. Even the VIP seats were packed full of people who were there to see the two strongest figures in Violetglory fight, making even people with Princess Shen Yu and Ye Chen's status feel squeezed like sardines.
Many people who saw them asked if they knew who the mystery guest was, but they merely shook their heads. Sovereign Brightscorch hadn't returned from the meeting after sending word to them, something even they were surprised about.
"Stop squeezing! Go watch it from that corner over there!" the princess cried, but it was pointless. People of just as high a status as her continued flocking in. The crowds all over the place yelled and cheered, creating so much noise that it felt like the entire wondersky realm was on the brink of exploding.
The two sovereigns had finally shown themselves on the battlefield, fully armed and filled with battle spirit. Nobody else could compare with their sheer presence. The countless cheers crescendoed like a tidal wave, rumbling even the armor plates of the sovereigns. In a world where martial prowess was heavily prized, the respect the two garnered was passionate and plentiful. If they had the legacy of the Primordial God-Emperor, they would probably have hundreds of billions of Omnisentient Threads, as many as the passionate gazes they were receiving.
All that remained was the mystery guest's reveal.
"Mysterious stranger, come out now!"
"Who could it be? What kind of person could face off against two sovereigns? Is it someone from Violetglory?"
"We want to know!"
Countless curious people were calling out for satisfaction when a sudden flash saw a white-haired figure descend from the sky before the two sovereigns.
"He's finally here!" Frenzied cheers resounded once more.
"He's...."
All of them immediately snapped their gazes to the white hair, black arm, and heterochromic, black and gold eyes. Why did those features seem so familiar?
"It's Li Tianming!" someone cried. Hundreds of billions of hearts seemed to skip a beat at that very moment, including Ye Chen and Princess Shen Yu's.
Breathless anticipation continued fermenting. Surprisingly, the wave of wild frenzy that was anticipated didn't build up from the sheer shock. Nobody had expected that it would be Tianming. Someone even said, "Is he here for an exhibition fight before the main event?"
All kinds of theories about why Tianming was there saturated their discussions. The buzzing of their conversation made it sound like countless flies were in the arena as another round of chattering broke out.
Eventually, the two sovereigns stood up and made their announcement.
"That's right! Our opponent today is Li Tianming, the top genius of the Mysterium Cluster, a sovereign before the age of thirty! He's the most miraculous person to appear in Violetglory in all of history, and the pride and joy of everyone!"
Their words immediately quelled all doubts. The wondersky realm reverberated with frenzied cheers at the announcement of someone who had reached the level of sovereigns before the age of thirty.
"Heavens! He's not even thirty!"
"Both sovereigns made that announcement, so it must be true! There's no way the crowd would be so pumped otherwise!"
"Li Tianming even managed to defeat the Celestial Beings last time! After such a long absence, he showed up again as a sovereign?!"
"My ancestors be damned! This is... beyond insane!"
"A monster! A monster never before seen!"
