"He … has reached the Core Formation realm …"
These words were like a gentle breeze in the ears of the people who were discussing who was the most suitable candidate to take over the Martian special regional city. They seemed to have only caused a slight ripple, and the discussion about the candidate continued for a few breaths …
As the voices of discussion gradually died down, the important figures slowly turned to look at the expressionless Martian Colony Governor in shock. For a moment … the entire great hall descended into silence.
In the silence, the Ethereal Dao College Sect Leader coughed. As his voice echoed in the silent great hall, his voice, which was even more ear-piercing to the ears, was heard.
"I have just received news that Wang Baole, who is said by all of you to be the most suitable candidate for the position of City Lord of the special regional city, has successfully reached the Core Formation realm. Thank you, fellow Daoists, for your recommendation. Although I should avoid family ties, for the sake of the Federation, and for all of you to think so highly of my disciple, as the Sect Leader, I cannot decline!"
"Mr. President, on behalf of the Ethereal Dao College and the four major Dao Colleges, I recommend Wang Baole to take over the Martian special regional city. In view of Wang Baole's contributions to the Federation and to Mars, he should be promoted to a Secondary Rank Two Noble!" The Ethereal Dao College Sect Leader suddenly spoke. As he spoke, the powerful cultivation of a late-stage Core Formation realm erupted from his body. It was like a storm that reverberated in the great hall. His words were filled with …
A domineering air that he hadn't possessed before!
This was because he didn't just represent the Ethereal Dao College. He also said that he represented the four major Dao Colleges. His words were destined to make it impossible for the other three major Dao Colleges to refute him. This was because the alliance of the four major Dao Colleges couldn't be shaken, and it couldn't be shaken. Even if there was internal competition, they had to be united in such a meeting!
Once there were voices of opposition from the four Dao Colleges, it would have a great impact on the four Dao Colleges. It might even cause a great rift in the alliance between the Ethereal Dao College and the Dao College!
In addition, the Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord's words were valid. No matter what … Wang Baole was also a member of the four major Dao Colleges. Therefore, the Sect Lords of the other three major Dao Colleges looked at the Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord and did not refute him. At the same time, a strange feeling rose in their hearts. The Ethereal Dao College Sect Lord at this moment was somewhat different from the image they had of him.
The White Deer Dao College Sect Master was silent for a few breaths. Even though he didn't like Wang Baole, he still spoke up immediately.
"I also recommend Wang Baole to be promoted to Secondary Rank Two Noble and take over as the governor of the special regional city!"
Following the White Deer Sect Master's words, the other two Dao Colleges also expressed their opinions. Lin You even smiled and became the first member of the Senate to support this proposal!
Lin You's stance also caused the other members of the Senate to look at each other and then at the Head Senator.
The Head Senator was expressionless and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. However, his gaze swept past Lin You. Then, he smiled and nodded.
"This is a good idea!"
This scene immediately caused the expressions of the Five Generation Sky Clan, the Galactic Dusk Sect, and the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect to change. The Head Senator's words carried a lot of weight. All of them frowned, especially the Clan Leaders of the Five Generation Sky Clan. They felt an indescribable sense of grievance rising in their hearts. They were extremely depressed. Wang Baole's breakthrough had been chosen at the right time!
Moreover, they still cared about their reputation. They couldn't swallow what they had just said. At that moment, they were thinking of other ways to deal with this matter and suppress it for later discussion. The representative of the Three Moon Group, who had not participated in this matter, was an old man. He was the younger brother of Old Master Jin from the Three Moon Group. At that moment, he laughed silently.
"The Three Moon Group will increase their investment in the special regional zone!"
The moment he said that, the pressure on the Five Generation Sky Clan and the others increased. Even though the Three Moon Group hadn't expressed their stance, the fact that they hadn't said they would increase their investment previously and had instead said so now showed their stance.
Even though the Martian Colony Governor didn't say anything, everyone felt that there was no need for her to express her stance. From the moment she said that Wang Baole had reached the Core Formation realm, her stance was clear.
It was just like the military. Even though they didn't express their stance, the faint smile on their faces spoke volumes!
As such, this sudden turn of events caught the Five Generation Sky Clan off guard. The final blow came from … the President of the Federation, Duan Muque!
Duan Muque didn't give the Five Generation Sky Clan a chance to speak. He waved his hand.
"Those who have done well should be rewarded. Those who are capable should be put to good use!
"I have previously said that the Federation needs a hundred Wang Baole's. Today, I will amend that. The Federation needs ten thousand Wang Baole's!
"Inform the citizens of the Federation that Wang Baole is conferred the title of Secondary Rank Two Noble and promoted to … the City Lord of the Martian special regional zone. He will enter the Senate as the eighteenth Senator!" The President of the Federation, Duan Muque, said decisively. As he spoke, he stood up and ended the meeting.
The Clan Leaders of the Five Generation Sky Clan narrowed their eyes. They sensed that something was amiss. It was obvious that Duan Muque had made his decision too quickly. They looked at each other, deep in thought. The other factions were deep in thought as well. One by one, they left, deep in thought.
Soon, their figures disappeared from the meeting hall. Finally, only Duan Muque stood up and walked towards the door in the spacious hall.
At this moment, his back was like a sharp sword. As he walked forward, his aura fluctuated, as if he were suppressing his Cultivation base!
"Soon … I'm already very close to breaking through … It's just a pity that I'll still be one step behind that old fellow." Duan Muque shook his head and smiled. He had seen the contemplative looks in the eyes of those who had left, but he didn't care. He believed that they would soon know the reason behind his decision.
There were three reasons why Duan Muque had made such a quick decision. First, he had always thought highly of Wang Baole. It was just that he didn't think highly of Wang Baole, but it wasn't to the point where he had to support Wang Baole. Second, the Federation needed a hero!
After the calamity on Mercury, the citizens of the Federation had yet to recover from their grief and worry. The Federation needed to establish an image. They needed to establish an elite that everyone would know!
To a certain extent, this elite would attract the attention of the citizens and stimulate the cohesion of the Federation. Originally, Wang Baole's image didn't meet his requirements. Although he had a clean background and had made his way into the eyes of the citizens, it wasn't to the extent that Duan Muque had to choose him.
It could even be said that if these were the only two reasons, Duan Muque would have delayed this matter and used it as a bargaining chip. He would have waited for both parties to make their offers. While balancing the various factions, he would have benefited the most from the selection of the Martian special regional city representative.
However, if the third reason was added, then everything would change. It could even be said that the third reason was the foundation of everything. With the third reason, only then would he value the first and second reasons. Without the third reason … nothing would be worth mentioning!
The third reason was that … Ethereal Dao College's Grand Supreme Elder, the previous President of the Federation, had led the Federation to usher in a new era of cultivation. The former strongest person in the Federation, Li Xingwen, was about to break through the Core Formation realm and advance to the Yuanying realm!
Ethereal Dao College might be able to hide this matter from the others, but it couldn't hide it from Duan Muque, who was also about to advance. He had long since sensed that there was a sharp aura in Ethereal Dao College that no one else could detect!
It was also because of this that the Ethereal Sect's Sect Master's confidence was boosted all of a sudden. His aura was even more domineering!
"We can also speed up the construction of the teleportation portal …" Duan Muque said softly as he walked further and further away.
With the end of the meeting and the announcement of the Federation's appointment, Wang Baole, who had returned to the new Martian city, realized that nothing had changed since he had disappeared. Finally, he received the news he had been waiting for!
After receiving the notification, Wang Baole laughed heartily. He was extremely excited. He felt that the position of the Federation President had gone from being so far out of his reach to one that he could touch with just a raise of his hand!
"From now on, I'm going to write an autobiography. After I'm done, I'll use this book to tell the future generations about how the legendary President of the Federation, Wang Baole, relied on his own hard work and perseverance. He was diligent and took one step at a time. He didn't rely on any external help. He relied solely on his own hard work and sweat to become the Son of Providence!
"I've even thought of a name. It'll be called The President's Autobiography!" Wang Baole laughed maniacally. He felt that his life had reached its peak at that moment.
Wang Baole's joy was indescribable. At the same time, all the media outlets in the Federation started promoting Wang Baole crazily. Almost all the cities and all the Federation planets in the Solar System had posters of Wang Baole appear on all the screens that could be seen.
Grand music and impassioned voices announced Wang Baole's appointment!
The youngest Core Formation realm cultivator in the history of the Federation!
The youngest Secondary Rank Two City Lord!
The youngest Senator of the Senate!
In an instant, Wang Baole's name reverberated like thunder throughout the Federation. It could be said that there was no one who didn't know about him. He had become the most sought-after person in the Federation!
