Afraid that Qiu Tu might co up with so crazy stunt.
Recently, Dongye State went to war with the Disaster Zone, coupled with the purge operations, which stirred unrest among the populace.
If Qiu Tu causes more trouble, who knows what major issues might arise.
Aside from the various city leaders, the deputy speakers attending Qiu Tu's eting held mixed emotions.
Guo Huai remained calm, as he and Qiu Tu both belonged to the Fengtian Faction, and Qiu Tu was the future key figure of the faction's leadership.
Unless there were doubts about Qiu Tu's loyalty to the Human Camp or to the Sanctuary, Guo Huai would firmly stand by his side.
In contrast, Ye Mingfeng and Yan Chen were in a completely different mindset.
Assigned to oversee balance and harboring previous conflicts or grudges with Qiu Tu, they worried that Qiu Tu might directly target them without clarifying his intentions.
But then, what happened caught everyone off guard.
During the Speaker eting held in the afternoon, Qiu Tu did four things in total.
First: Under his leadership, the speakers formally introduced themselves and got familiar with one another.
Second: He once again defined the division of responsibilities among the deputy speakers and reminded them to manage their respective jurisdictions properly.
If there were no special circumstances, everything would continue according to Dongye State's policies over the past few months for further developnt.
If unnecessary, he would refrain from interfering with the scope of their duties.
Third: He ensured preparations were in place to receive the delegation from The Sixth Sanctuary.
Fourth... Qiu Tu announced that he would go into seclusion for 7 to 10 days to advance to Fifth-Order Calamity Being status!
Among all the announcents made, none were as explosive as Qiu Tu's final statent!
When Qiu Tu disclosed this in the conference room, aside from Rain Butterfly, all the deputy speakers present were completely stunned!
What? Qiu Tu... was about to ascend to Fifth Order Calamity Being?
Though everyone had expected Qiu Tu's rapid surge in strength, his progress seed almost unreasonable.
But... A Fifth Order Calamity Being?
How many Fifth Order Calamity Beings were there in the entire Eighth Sanctuary?
Excluding the anomaly Huang Shangzong, there were only Old Rao and Elder Tang.
It's rumored that Old Qi and others intended to break through as well, but so were too busy with tightly packed schedules, while others... had insufficient strength to advance for now.
As for other high-ranking individuals, there were indeed so who qualified, but they were still waiting in queue.
Once Qiu Tu truly ascended to Fifth Order Calamity Being, he would beco the fourth of the Eighth Sanctuary to hold such status!
Such prestige indeed matched his position as Speaker of Dongye State.
Even though the Sanctuary repeatedly emphasized that strength and promotion weren't necessarily linked.
Still... When strength reached a certain level, the respect due was undeniable.
Combined with Qiu Tu's rits, youth, and unmatched potential, his position as ruler of an entire state seed justified.
Soon after, the news spread across Dongye State following the adjournnt of the Speaker eting.
Everyone who learned of this could not help but feel a mix of anxiety and doubt about Qiu Tu's endeavor...
However, amidst the mass public attention, Qiu Tu prepared his advancent materials and, escorted by a convoy, headed straight to Bright Moon City and then into the Bright Moon Area to proceed with his ascension.
—Of course, all of this was a façade.
After shaking off the tailing spies behind him, Qiu Tu left the Bright Moon Area quietly, bringing no one along, and secretly made his way to Xinjie City and the Xinjie Territory.
Arriving at territory he truly owned, Qiu Tu summoned his Shadow Soldier guards, reviewed the procedures of the advancent ritual, and began his preparations!
Whether or not he could beco Fifth Order, everything boiled down to this mont!
