Zeng An walked out of the shop with a hearty laugh, holding two Dominator Artifacts in his hands. As he stepped out, he deliberately released the auras of both artifacts.

"Thank you, Master Seven Stars, for forging a twenty-seventh-order premium-grade Dominator Artifact and a peerless-grade Dominator Artifact!"

Zeng An was immensely grateful and intentionally displayed his finished products to help boost the business of the Seven Stars Artifacting Shop.

Customers inside the shop browsing goods and pedestrians walking on the street all cast surprised and curious glances.

One by one, they gathered around.

"Is this Master Seven Stars' latest work?" someone asked curiously.

Zeng An laughed heartily, "That's right, this is indeed Master Seven Stars' work. The master has forged another peerless-grade Dominator Artifact! I was fortunate enough to successfully obtain this one!"

He raised the Town Sealing Dominator Artifact high, allowing more people to see this treasure.

Many who saw this scene completely changed the way they looked at the Seven Stars Artifacting Shop.

What they had heard before were just rumors without physical proof. Now, having seen the real item with their own eyes, they naturally believed it a bit more.

Zeng An smiled slightly, flicked his sleeves, and prepared to leave after his business was done.

At that moment, Li Chun walked out of the shop, "Esteemed guest Zeng An, please wait a moment!"

Zeng An paused his departing steps and turned his head curiously, "Does Master Seven Stars have further business?"

"I wonder if the esteemed guest would be willing to temporarily place your Dominator Artifact in the shop for display over the next few days? I wish to show it to more customers, to let them believe in Master Seven Stars' skill level!" Li Chun said sincerely.

"So that's it!" Zeng An said, suddenly understanding.

With a wave of his hand, he said magnanimously, "What kind of issue is this? I agree!"

Li Chun was overjoyed and continued, "Additionally, I wish to establish a Peerless-Grade Ranking List. Any peerless-grade Dominator Artifact forged by the master will be listed on the Peerless-Grade Ranking. One can choose to be listed with a signature or anonymously, and of course, one can also choose not to be listed at all. As the first client to successfully obtain a peerless-grade Dominator Artifact, you can be the first to be listed. I wonder if you are willing."

Upon hearing this, Zeng An's eyes lit up. This kind of thing was truly excellent!

Not only would it help Master Seven Stars and foster a good relationship, but it would also boost his own fame, which would be of tremendous benefit to his business!

Thinking this, Zeng An immediately nodded, "This is a good thing. I naturally have no objections."

Li Chun was ecstatic and immediately invited Zeng An back into the shop. In a specially cleared area, they erected a stone stele!

Li Chun imprinted the image of that Dominator Artifact into the ranking list, and thus, the first entry appeared on this Peerless-Grade Ranking List.

Ranking, Name, Grade, Client Signature, Remarks

1, Town Sealing Pagoda (temporary name), Twenty-Seventh Order Peerless-Grade, Zeng An, Thank you for the master's forging.

Brief text, an image of a peerless-grade Dominator Artifact, plus a client's signature—this was an endorsement!

One person's endorsement wasn't much, but once the numbers grew, this would become a golden ranking list capable of spreading throughout the entire Third Frontline!

All owners of Dominator Artifacts listed on the ranking would be endorsing Master Seven Stars' forging ability!

Su Yuan saw Li Chun's actions. Li Chun's idea was really not bad. He was naturally happy to see something that could boost his fame. It seemed Li Chun did have some brains.

Seeing this Li Chun, he thought of his own subordinate, Song Cai.

He activated Mental Echo, and with a single thought, he saw Song Cai's situation.

At this moment, Song Cai was already the Financial Director of the Seven Stars Dao Court, presiding over the Seven Star Trading Association that covered the entire Taihao Chaos. He was handling the business quite well, but his cultivation realm was still stuck at the second stage of Dao Venerable. It seemed a breakthrough to Chaos Dominator was still far off.

"In a small place like Taihao Chaos, trying to break through to Chaos Dominator primarily through the Transaction Dao Principle is far too difficult!"

Su Yuan thought for a moment and summoned Song Cai before him.

Song Cai felt the world shift and found himself in an unfamiliar place. But when he saw the familiar Su Yuan, he understood it was the Dominator's summons and immediately said respectfully, "Song Cai pays his respects to the Master."

Su Yuan nodded, "Song Cai, this is Black Flame City, inhabited by over a million Chaos Dominators. Those coming and going are all Chaos Dominators. I summoned you here so you can help out in my shop, handle some affairs. However, you are restricted to the shop only and must not step into the streets. Do you understand?"

Song Cai's heart shook violently, and he immediately said loudly, "This subordinate understands!"

"Good."

With a wave of his hand, Su Yuan applied a layer of [Great Power Bearing] onto Song Cai!

This gave Song Cai a buff, allowing him to ignore the pressure of Chaos Dominators and be immune to damage from Chaos Dominators below the twentieth order.

[Stealth Walker] also concealed Song Cai's aura, so others could not detect his presence, as long as he did not engage in combat.

Su Yuan called for Li Chun and had him take Song Cai away.

Li Chun looked at Song Cai curiously, wondering where the master had found this subordinate.

If Li Chun knew that it was precisely because of the two ideas he had just come up with—which were quite good—that Su Yuan remembered his old subordinate and transferred him here, potentially to steal his own position, one wonders what he would think.

On the other side.

Lin Feng and the other six disciples who had broken through to Chaos Dominator had not been out of Taihao Chaos for long when they encountered the bedraggled returning group: the Taixuan Dominator, Che Chi Old Man, Wuyazi, the Stone Dominator, the Moon Dominator, and Dominator Jiemeng.

Che Chi Old Man, the Stone Dominator, and the Moon Dominator were in the worst condition. Their bodies were illusory, and their auras were extremely faint, looking as if they had just been resurrected from their Life-bound Chaos.

Wuyazi looked slightly better, but he had lost an arm. Theoretically, beings at the Dominator level shouldn't be able to be crippled, but Wuyazi's arm seemed truly incapable of recovery.

Dominator Jiemeng's face was deathly pale, devoid of any emotion, as if she had lost her soul.

The Taixuan Dominator was the most intact. His aura was relatively stable, and his realm had even improved somewhat, but his expression was equally grim.

As Lin Feng and the others emerged, they saw these six figures discussing something in the Nothingness, their expressions extremely agitated.

Lin Feng heard phrases like "Don't go anymore!", "Had we known, we would have stayed", "The Scavengers' methods are too bizarre!", and "Surviving is good enough."

The Taixuan Dominator was the first to notice Lin Feng and the others, his expression complex as he said, "You actually broke through together?"

The other several Dominators also stopped their conversation and looked over, all showing surprise.

They hadn't paid attention to matters in Taihao Chaos for a long time. They hadn't expected new Chaos Dominators to appear, and seven of them at once!

Lin Feng nodded, "We received our teacher's help and successfully broke through."

"Seven Stars? That makes sense. Remaining in Taihao Chaos, he's truly peerless at nurturing disciples!" the Stone Dominator sighed.

"Ah, my teacher left a long time ago. He is not within Taihao Chaos!" Lin Feng shook his head.

He then asked, "I wonder what happened to you seniors? You don't look very well!"
