9:00 AM the next day.
Inside the Great Hall of Argentum.
The highest People's Congress meeting commenced as scheduled.
At this meeting, Bohdan Sherwood was elected to succeed as the highest leader, and a new top leadership team was elected.
With this,
A new round of top-level succession was successfully completed.
In the afternoon.
The top leadership first issued an order.
The gist of the order was to identify The Astral Sect as a cult, requiring the national judicial system to launch an all-out crackdown on The Astral Sect, with all related cases to be handled strictly, swiftly, and severely.
The news segment explained the sudden nationwide martial law declared the day before, stating that its purpose was to combat The Astral Sect.
This explanation dispelled the public's doubts.
Of course, the news did not mention the content about The Astral Sect plotting to threaten the national regime.
This was done for the sake of maintaining stability.
