"... And with that we move on to the last part and most important part of the eting. Choosing who will sit in the leader positions of the sect alliance!" As the last few hours of the eting went by without much happening, outside of Xu Bao interrupting the few people from the major sects whenever they tried bringing sothing up, the Great General from the imperial family finally reached the last part of the eting. The vote of who got a leader position in the sect alliance.
"It's finally ti..." Sitting beside Xuan Hao, Xu Bao could not help tensing up as he turned to look at Xuan Hao with a nervous expression on his face without saying anythin. No matter how confident he was in Xuan Hao being able to help secure a leader position for him and the rest of the independent sects, he could still not stop himself from feeling nervous about it.
Like Xu Bao, the rest of the people inside the eting hall also tensed up upon hearing what the Great General who had been sent over by the imperial family said. All of them understood that the most important part of the eting was about to start.
Normally, they would all think that the leader positions would fall into the hands of the major sects who were by far the strongest present... But this was no longer the case with the independent sects around.
Even if the independent sects did not have any kind of backing like the major sects did, they still had Xu Bao, who was by far considered the strongest person among all the sects currently present.
With soone like him around, these different sects were no longer certain that all the leader positions would end up being given to the people from the major sects. After all, even if a lot of the sects present were to so extend backed by a kingdom or a noble family of so sort, it did not an that they would just mindlessly follow what the major sects did.
If there really was a chance for the independent sects to win over a leader position in the sect alliance, there was more than a few sects among the ones present that did not get along with the major sects and were willing to support them as a show of defiance towards the major sects.
Observing the reactions of everyone present while also feeling the burning gaze of Xu Bao sitting beside him, Xuan Hao could not help smiling wryly as he understood that the next part of the eting was not going to be as peaceful as it had been up to now.
Although the chances of anyone resorting to violence in the presence of the Great General from the imperial family was low, it was not sothing that was a certainty. Especially considering that the people from the different major sects looked like they were about to jump off their seats and attack Xu Bao at any mont...
"Now that it seems like everyone is ready, I will start the official process for choosing the leader positions of the sect alliance. The thod itself is rather simple and will be based on voting. The sects that get the most votes will be chosen for the leadership positions!"Hearing the voice of the Great General suddenly echo throughout the eting hall, Xuan Hao turned his head as he looked towards the centre of the hall where the Great General was located.
The voting process was the most important part of the eting and would also be what determined who would oversee the sect alliance. For this reason, not only Xuan Hao, but the rest of the people inside the eting hall all turned their attention towards the Great General from the imperial family. Wanting to know how the voting process would work. After all, all of them understood that there would be no way a Domain Lord Realm Expert's vote would hold the sa power as soone who had only reached the Nascent Soul Realm...
"For the voting, those below the Domain Lord Realm counts as one vote, as for the Domain Lord Realm, those in the First to Third Stage of the Domain Lord Realm's vote will count as 5, while those between the Fourth and Sixth Stage count as 10, 15 and 25 votes respectively. Anyone above the Sixth Stage will count for 100 votes!
The voting will be done through soone standing up and announcing they want the position. Followed by everyone who wants to support that person announcing it. During this, you will only be able to vote for one person!"
"""..."""
As the Great General finished talking, everyone inside the eting hall fell silent. The one's who had originally wanted to support the independent sects secretly without offending the major sects no longer dared to do this. After all, them standing up and announcing their support for the independent sects was sure to not only offend the major sects but also the kingdoms standing behind them!
"This- This process of voting was clearly sothing that those kingdoms convinced the imperial family to do! Luckily, we have senior with us, or there would have been close to no way for us to get a single leader position during this eting..." Muttering this to himself as he gazed towards the different people from the major sects who were smugly looking towards him from the other side of the eting hall, Xu Bao could not help frowning as he realized that they should have had a hand in how the voting for leader positions was going to take place.
If not for the fact that Elder Scarlet Fla had managed to find a powerful expert who had reached the later stages of the Domain Lord Realm like Xuan Hao, Xu Bao was almost certain that this would have ended up resulting in the independent sects not getting a single leader position.
After all, even if he himself was soone in the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, the major sects had more than seven such experts when put together. Not to ntion the fact that the number of experts that were in the three middle realms of the Domain Lord Relam supporting the major sects far exceeded that of the independent sects!
"..."
Feeling a sudden passionate gaze from Xu Bao who was sitting beside him, Xuan Hao had no idea what to say, as he turned to look towards the people from the different major sects who were smugly looking around themselves. Reassured that they would be able to get their hands on all of the leader positions.
Looks like I'm bound to catch their attention, it was a good idea to disguise myself as a long-lost ancestor from one of these independent sects, that has just recently returned from adventuring outside the Sky Empire...
Shaking his head as he thought about this, Xuan Hao could not help feeling happy for the small necklace around his neck, with it, he had been able to perfectly disguise himself without the Peak Domain Lord Realm Expert from the imperial family noticing anything.
At this point in ti, outside of the people from the independent sects who knew about him, the rest of the people present saw him as an old man with one step in the grave. Not too dissimilar to Xu Bao who was sitting beside him.
Although they did not know about him nor his cultivation base, Xuan Hao was certain that everyone from the different sects thought about him as an old ancestor from one of the independent sects.
The only person present that had sensed the aura belonging to soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm that he had allowed to be seen, was the Great General from the imperial family who had been secretly glancing towards him from ti to ti. Obviously feeling a bit surprised over the fact that there was soone in the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm among the people in the independent sects.
"Now that all of you seems to have understood the voting process, the people who want a leader position can stand up... But rember, there will only be a total of four leader positions!"
Whoosh~
Not even a second later, four people among the major sects stood up at the sa ti. Clearly, they had already agreed on how to split the leader positions in the sect alliance among themselves.
"Looks like those people already ca to an agreent on how to control the sect alliance..." Muttering this to himself as he looked over the four people from the major sects, who had all reached the Sixth Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, Xuan Hao could not help glancing back towards Xu Bao who had similarly stood up to signal that he would also be going for one of the leader positions in the sect alliance.
Even from a glance, it was obvious that the four people from the major sects were not too happy upon seeing Xu Bao standing up against them, but then again, it was sothing they had already expected to happen...
