Lu Bao shook his head. "Not a single faction from the Intergalactic Council is allowed to colonize a planet on its own. If the Shen Empire made the attempt, they must have only deployed a small fraction of their forces to attack your world. The Shen Empire commands thousands of cultivators at the Transcending Tribulation stage. How many did your planet face in battle?"
Feng Fan was taken aback. His planet likely had no more than two hundred experts at the Transcending Tribulation or Body Integration realm combined. The battle for a seat at the Intergalactic Council will involve a hundred thousand cultivators in total.
If the Shen Empire just sends a thousand or two Transcending Tribulation cultivators, they will crush them with ease.
He sighed. "Senior Lu is right. But neither I nor anyone from my planet is willing to surrender without a fight. Since we've chosen to accept the challenge… Senior, which civilization do you believe we should face?"
