“Your city's name, of course.
We haven't been able to come to a consensus on what name to choose, and we'd like for you to make a decision.”

“What names have you thought of?”

“Initially, we wanted to call it the city of Lie.”

Zhang Lie nodded: that seemed reasonable.

“However, the wood spirits and the Yeluo tribe vetoed that idea.”

“Why?”

“Because it's no longer a city just of humans, and the single-word naming scheme used for human cities wouldn't be suitable.”

“In that case, what name would you propose?”

“After some deliberation, we've settled on one name.”

The shaman of the wood spirits, chief of the Yeluo, members of Team Zenith, Chu Feng, and Yun Bing announced simultaneously,

“The city of Renhuang!” [1]

Zhang Lie frowned.

Such a name didn't bring back good memories for him.
After all, it was because those hunters of Qi had addressed him as a champion of mankind that he had ultimately been forced out of the city.

Sun Mengmeng added, “I know what you're worried about, Zhang Lie, but our situation is different now.
What you experienced in Qi won't happen again, and I personally think this is a very suitable name.”

Zhang Lie sucked in a deep breath.
“Very well.
if you're all in agreement, we'll call this the city of Renhuang.”

Li Feng asked, “In that case, is today our founding day?”

“It certainly is!” Sun Mengmeng replied.
“Shall we have a celebration?”

Chu Feng rushed off into the distance, shouting, “I'll bring some decorations over to drape throughout the city!”

The chief of the Yeluo smiled.
“I'll let my kinsmen know to help as well.
Not only did our governor return, our city has finally been named.”

The shaman of the wood spirits flew off.
“I'll let my clan know of this joyous occasion!”

“And I'll inform the rock spirits,” Li Feng added.

Sun Mengmeng murmured in excitement, “We were already planning on a feast to celebrate your return—now we might as well make it even larger, to celebrate the founding of this city!”

Zhang Lie suddenly shouted, “Hold it!”

Everyone stopped moving.

Zhang Lie stepped out of the palace and took out the three golden rocs' carcasses.
“This is a gift I brought back from Mt.
Wanren.”

Were these…
peak-grade lifeforms?! Those present had all seen peak-grade lifeforms for themselves, but none as large as the golden roc that had almost ascended to disaster-grade.
It was a few times larger than even ordinary peak-grade lifeforms.
They couldn't imagine how Zhang Lie had managed to slay such a massive beast.

“This should be enough for a feast for the entire city.
Ah, right, take this one as well.”

He also pulled out the cactus-like plant-based lifeform that he had slain within the wood spirits' forest.

Everyone present began to salivate—they would all have a taste of these peak-grade lifeforms' flesh for themselves!

This is the romanization of 人皇, which I have previously translated as 'champion of mankind.' ☜
