In the beautifully adorned throne room of the Britain Sect, Giorgio Kong III sat upon his grand throne, as if a regal figure draped in shimmering robes.

Sunlight filtered through stained glass windows, casting patterns of color upon the marble floors. Surrounding him were his loyal servants, their faces illuminated with reverence as they attended to their master's words.

Sectmaster Kong soon remarked, his voice resonating with authority.

“Truly, it is a splendid day! The sun indeed never sets on my beautiful sect’s pavilions. They have seldom displayed such radiance… The heavens are truly too kind.”

His servants and a couple of descendants nodded in agreement, their sycophancy evident in every gesture.

A servant burst through the doors, breathless. He brought urgent news.

“Esteemed Sectmaster Kong! I bring with me urgent news!!”

Sectmaster Kong stood up quickly.

“Spit it out.”

The servant nodded.

“Well, you see… Our colonies in the Myriad Mountains and Rivers Realm have banded together, and have declared themselves a sovereign sect!! They are calling themselves the United Sect!!”

Sectmaster Kong scoffed.

“Foolish United Sect… Why have they done this?”

“Well, esteemed sectmaster… It seems that they believe we are unjustly levying spirit stone taxes upon them!! They believe we are doing so without proper representation.”

Sectmaster Kong donned a contemptuous expression.

“Hmph! Those bastards!! I am declaring war upon their sect, active immediately! Immediately send word to Toun Shen to return the Nina, Pinta, and Santamaria, as well as all other vessels carrying precious ingredients. We must not let them seize our heavenly skygrass!”

Just then, another servant burst through the door.

“Sectmaster Kong!! The United Sect has seized all our vessels containing precious cultivation ingredients!!”

Sectmaster Kong gritted his teeth.

“THOSE BASTARDS!! HOW DARE THEY USE OUR INGREDIENTS TO FURTHER THEIR OWN CULTIVATION!!!”

The servant, though, motioned his hands to calm Sectmaster Kong.

“No sectmaster, you see, they did not use the cultivation ingredients… Rather, they tossed them overboard!”
