In the blink of an eye, five years had passed, and the entire Dalong had undergone tremendous changes.
The initially cluttered powers were now reduced to nine, but compared to the three factions of Liang Wang Jiang Lu, Prince Xi Luo Chuan, and Zhou Ding of Prince Yan, the rest were relatively weaker and less dominant.
These three factions divided sixty states of Dalong among themselves, leaving the other six factions with the remaining forty-eight states, and naturally, there were disparities in strength.
Among them, Zhou Ding rose to the top, claiming twenty-three states, followed by Luo Chuan, who garnered extensive support from influential families through the Ninth Grade Law, holding twenty-one states, while Jiang Lu ranked third with only seventeen states; there were indeed gaps between them.
