Chapter 695: Becoming Speaker
Second Frontline.
The battle situation stabilized.
Ying Wenzheng was monitoring the situation, and when he saw this turn of events, he was greatly surprised.
He never expected that Su Yuan could contribute a full trillion Dominator Artifacts. This was far more significant than his previous contributions. Although most were low quality—far inferior to the previous batch—the sheer quantity was astonishing!
He immediately contacted Su Yuan.
A phantom image of Su Yuan appeared before Ying Wenzheng. Calmly, he said, “Speaker, is there something urgent?”
Ying Wenzheng laughed heartily. “Seven Stars, your contribution is truly immense! I specifically contacted you to thank you for your help!”
Su Yuan smiled faintly. “I’m a member of the Chaos Alliance too. This is what I should do.”
Ying Wenzheng said, “Your contribution is simply too great. Even though we’re in wartime, I must propose that you be promoted to Seventh Speaker as an exception, with status and authority equal to a true Speaker!”
As soon as he finished speaking, five more phantom figures appeared beside him—the will incarnations of the other five Speakers!Su Yuan stared at Ying Wenzheng in shock and immediately waved his hand. “No, no, no! I haven’t even reached the seventy-second order. I’m not worthy of the position. Please don’t joke like that!”
Ying Wenzheng said seriously, “Wrong. There are actually two ways to become a Speaker. One is to reach the seventy-second order and have sufficient merit. The other is to accumulate enough merit to be nominated as a Speaker! The second method is just so difficult that, over time, everyone forgot about it. But now, your contributions are more than enough!”
Su Yuan was dumbfounded. “That’s actually a thing?”
At that moment, one of the Speakers who had appeared, Xie Tingfeng, spoke up. “It’s true. This has been a rule since ancient times. It’s just that no one has ever had the opportunity to meet that condition. Usually, someone capable of making such contributions would have already reached the Speaker level in cultivation long before.”
Su Yuan sighed. “I’m not ready to become a Speaker.”
“There’s no need for preparation. A Speaker doesn’t need to do much—just existing is a morale boost for the Alliance. Every additional Speaker strengthens it!” Ying Wenzheng said, then looked at the others. “What do you all think?”
“Agreed,” said the Second Speaker, Xiuming.
“I agree too,” said the Third Speaker, Xie Tingfeng.
“No objections!” replied the Fourth Speaker.
The remaining two Speakers also agreed.
All Speakers were in favor.
Then Ying Wenzheng called an emergency plenary session online. All councilors entered a special virtual meeting space.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Within an instant, over three thousand figures appeared in the meeting space.
They were all high-ranking figures from the Second Frontline.
Everyone looked up at the sky with confusion. Six Speakers sat high on their Cloud Platforms.
The councilors exchanged glances, wondering why such a crucial moment demanded an emergency plenary session.
Ying Wenzheng looked at everyone and said, “We are now holding a Speaker election agenda!”
The moment he finished, the crowd’s expressions lit up with surprise. Had another seventy-second-order powerhouse broken through?
“Just now, Seven Stars supplied a full trillion Dominator Artifacts to the front lines, stabilizing a situation that was on the verge of collapse. This feat is unparalleled in recent times. Therefore, I, along with the five Speakers, jointly propose promoting Alternate Speaker Seven Stars to a full Speaker! All councilors, please cast your votes now,” Ying Wenzheng said calmly.
As his words sank in, everyone understood.
This contribution was truly extraordinary. Some councilors wondered if someone below the seventy-second order could even become a Speaker.
But when they reviewed the Speaker selection rules, they indeed found that clause—it was just that no one had ever seen it enacted and had forgotten about it.
All councilors didn’t need to think further. They voted in agreement. Since all six Speakers had already approved, this meeting was merely a formality.
And so, in the blink of an eye, Su Yuan’s seat suddenly rose into the air, transforming into a Cloud Platform identical to those of the other Speakers!
Everyone immediately offered their congratulations. “Congratulations, Seventh Speaker!”
Su Yuan sighed. What a twist of fate. He had originally wanted to keep a low profile, but these people were forcing his hand like this. There was nothing he could do—this was just what happened when someone was too outstanding.
Ying Wenzheng said, “Speaker Seven Stars, is there anything you’d like to say to everyone?”
Su Yuan thought for a moment, then said, “Although this Scavenger calamity hasn’t passed yet, I already have a way to resolve it. Please do your best to hold the line. Victory will eventually be ours!”
His words were resolute and powerful, filling the councilors with renewed confidence.
Su Yuan, who had provided a trillion Dominator Artifacts, was already seen as a miracle. Many believed he could accomplish even greater wonders.
The plenary session adjourned.
Only the wills of the few Speakers gathered again.
Ying Wenzheng asked, “Seven Stars, may I ask how you obtained that trillion Dominator Artifacts?”
Su Yuan smiled. “I have the ability to repair Dominator Artifacts. Those were all restored from the broken ones in the warehouse!”
Xie Tingfeng suddenly understood. “No wonder you’re so confident about winning this war. So you have such a heaven-defying ability!”
The other Speakers smiled as well upon hearing this.
Ying Wenzheng asked, “Is the cost significant?”
“Not really. It just takes a lot of time,” Su Yuan said.
Ying Wenzheng’s expression softened with relief. “We’ll buy you the time. With me here, I can hold the line for a few hundred Yuan Assemblies!”
The other Speakers also showed solemn expressions, but their gazes were filled with unwavering determination.
Su Yuan paused, then shook his head. “No need for that long. Give me a few months.”
“What? That’s considered a lot of time?” Xie Tingfeng’s composure completely broke.
What kind of time frame was a few months?
Su Yuan said, “The battlefield situation changes by the second. Who knows what will happen in the next moment? In a few months, countless variables could arise.”
“How is that possible?” Xie Tingfeng said with confidence.
Ying Wenzheng laughed. “Alright, Seven Stars isn’t wrong. Everyone, don’t slack off. Do your best to hold the line. Don’t stumble just before the dawn of victory.”
The Speakers all nodded with smiles.
Then, their wills dispersed one by one.
Only Ying Wenzheng and Su Yuan remained.
Ying Wenzheng’s expression turned serious. His demeanor was no longer as relaxed as before.
“Seven Stars, I can sense that the source of your confidence in winning this battle isn’t that ability, is it? This calamity, the Nothingness Dominator’s momentum is fierce. To be honest, we’re still lacking in top-tier combat power. That means we’ll always be on the back foot.”
Su Yuan nodded. “Indeed. Relying solely on a massive number of low-tier Dominator Artifacts can only stabilize the front line. Mounting a counterattack won’t be easy. The Nothingness Dominator is an obstacle we can’t bypass. But there is a solution. However, I need to keep it a secret for now. Please forgive me, Speaker Ying. When the time comes, I’ll need the Speakers to cooperate with me and be ready to act at a moment’s notice.”
