Adams sat at the head of the table.
Below him were the upper echelons of the Fengyuan Alliance.
Adams stood up and bowed to everyone. He said apologetically, "I can't absolve myself from the blame for causing such a huge loss this time. When this matter is over, I'll step down from my position as the champion of the alliance and hand it over to someone capable."
As he spoke, he scanned the entire place and finally stopped at Genji.
His meaning was obvious. He hoped that Genji could take over the champion's position.
The alliance president was mainly responsible for handling the affairs of the alliance, while the champion was responsible for battles and other matters that required the use of force. Adams had given the order as the champion to get Genji and the rest to rush to the Hunter's Guild battlefield.
Therefore, Adams hoped to give everyone an explanation by stepping down from his position as the champion.
"What are you doing? Don't look at me! You can step down if you want, but I don't dare to take the champion's position, "Genji said angrily as he sat beside Adams.
"President, there's no need to blame yourself. Casualties are inevitable in war. This time, we've achieved two great victories in one day. Looking at the final result, it's already very good." On the other side, Mu Jin, who was sitting at the head of the table, spoke up.
They were all old acquaintances and knew that Adams was truly guilty. However, the Fengyuan Alliance had not reached the point where he could leave the helm yet.
As Genji and Old Man Zifuqi spoke, the people below also began to dissuade him.
Everyone had witnessed Adams' conscientious contributions to the Fengyuan Alliance over the past few decades.
However, Adams's attitude was very firm. "Stop talking. I've already decided to step down from my position as the champion. There's no one in the Fengyuan Alliance who can take up the position for the time being, so let's leave it empty for now. Isn't it the same for the Guandu Alliance? I'll temporarily take over the authority, but as long as someone can gain everyone's recognition and become the champion, we'll send him up! "
He scanned the entire place again before his gaze paused briefly on Aoki, Daigo, and Qian Li.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew what Adams meant. It was best to choose one of the three to be the champion.
Currently, Qian Li was the strongest. His true strength was definitely at the forefront of the entire conference room. However, he did not wish to be restricted by these positions.
He was duty-bound to work for the Alliance like this, but he didn't want to let too many trivial matters affect his improvement.
Aoki's true strength was slightly stronger than Daigo's, but the strength he had displayed so far was about the same as Daigo's.
That being said, Aoki had a huge advantage. He was born as a civilian and had no family ties. Aoki wouldn't take sides. Besides, he was a talented advanced trainer, which made him even more influential.
After this incident, Aoki already had a very high reputation among the permanent troops of the Alliance. He was also the most likely candidate to become one of the Four Heavenly Kings.
As for Daigo.
After observing Daigo for such a long time, Adams had a clear understanding of him. He was a man who didn't lack talent, hard work, or resources. If there was a question of who was most likely to become the strongest among the three, it would be Daigo because he had the support of the entire Zivoc family.
Daigo's personality was quite good. He didn't have the arrogance and despotism of those rich kids. One had to admit that Mu Jin, the Zivoc family's old man, had taught him well.
But sometimes, success or failure depended on one's family. Whether it was in the competition for the Four Heavenly Kings or the championship, his identity as the heir of his family would become a stumbling block.
But there was nothing he could do about it. Even someone as upright and plainspoken as Daigo couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't open a door for the Zivoc family after he became the champion.
Even if it was just a tiny bit, in this position, it was like being exposed under a spotlight. All kinds of details would be infinitely magnified, and there was a possibility that they would be criticized.
As a matter of fact, all three of them had the potential to become the champion in other regions.
Adams now had a feeling of pain and happiness.
But now it seemed that it was too early to say that he would be the champion. Among the three of them, even Qianli, who was the strongest, was still a little lacking.
Genji was barely able to be the champion, but only barely, and he wasn't willing to do so.
Genji was also old. Even if he became the champion, he wouldn't be able to make any substantial changes. It was better to do his current job honestly and pave the way for the next generation.
Aoki's generation made Genji see the infinitely bright future of the Fengyuan Alliance.
Not only Aoki and Daigo, but also Hibiscus Chinensis and Miceli. At the very least, they were the talents of the Four Heavenly Kings. Even in a weaker region, they could compete for the championship. But because Aoki and Daigo were too eye-catching, the two of them didn't seem so conspicuous.
No one could tell the upper limit of Furong and Mi Keli's future growth.
Regarding the upper limit of the future, only Dawu was the clearest about it. No one else could be sure about it.
Adams took the blame and resigned this time. Part of the reason was that he indeed had to bear some responsibility for this incident. Another part of the reason was that he wanted to leave the champion's seat empty, so that the people below could see hope.
In the end, the matter was settled with Adams's decision.
"What do you think about Team Lava and Ocean Team?" Now, the official content of this meeting had finally begun.
"Team Lava and Ocean Team's strength has been greatly reduced. Their influence has been reduced by about seventy to eighty percent. However, their strongest senior members are still intact. We need to be careful of their sudden counterattack. But it shouldn't be a problem for the time being." Yuan Zhi said. This time, he was mainly responsible for this matter, so he had the most right to speak.
Adams nodded and looked at Aoki, who was sitting in the Alliance's Chief Investigator's seat.
Nobody knew when it started, but the four of them took turns to sit in this seat. Now, Aoki was the only one sitting there.
The other three Chief Investigators didn't have any intention of fighting for the seat.
"Aoki, what do you think? Tell me," Adams asked.
Aoki glanced at Genji, nodded and said frankly, "Heavenly King Genji, you're right. Team Lava and Ocean Team shouldn't be able to cause too much trouble in the short term. We can temporarily shift our focus away from them, but …"
He paused for a moment, then continued, "However, Team Lava and Ocean Team obtained two special stones from Meteor Waterfall. After talking with Professor Solans and some descriptions I've read in some documents, these two stones are most likely the Indigo Orb and the Crimson Orb …
Two special stones that can awaken the legendary Mythical Beasts, Sea God Gaioka and Earth God Gurado. If they find the sleeping place of the two legendary Elves … "
Hearing Aoki's words, everyone's expression became serious. They understood the severity of this matter.
