Upon hearing Secretary Han's words, Huang Shangzong fell silent for a mont.
He took a deep breath, his broad and resolute face looked at his secretary as if he were looking at a fool.
Then he pointed to his temple with his thick fingers and said with a face full of disappointnt,
"Is your brain just a decoration on top of your neck?"
"Can't you use it?"
After speaking, seeing Secretary Han still looked perplexed, Huang Shangzong sighed heavily and then guided him, "I ask you. What do you think is the purpose of Qiu Tu recording this video?"
Secretary Han hesitated, then said, "Isn't it just... worried that you and the higher-ups wouldn't believe that the Whale Shark Evil God was murdered?"
Huang Shangzong held his forehead, his face speechless, "What you said is just the most basic reason."
Secretary Han, puzzled, "Then... what else is it for?"
Huang Shangzong's chest heaved violently a few tis. Already tall and imposing, his anger made him seem like an unshakable living volcano, instilling fear in those who looked upon him.
He knocked on the stainless steel chair with his broad knuckles and said, "It's a show of force! He's demonstrating his power!"
Seeing that his secretary still didn't quite understand, Huang Shangzong explained, "With one sword, he killed a Fourth-Order Evil God. His strength can almost be said to have reached the very peak of the Eighth Sanctuary."
"Fourth Order and Fourth Order are different. And a Fourth Order that can kill an Evil God independently is even more different."
"This video proves that he has beco the top combat power in the Eighth Sanctuary, capable of defending a state on his own!"
"Such peak combat power, even giving him the honorary position of Deputy Speaker isn't a loss."
"Once he further proves his capabilities, the Sanctuary can imdiately take another state from the Disaster Zone."
Hearing Huang Shangzong's explanation, Secretary Han finally understood the implications in Huang Shangzong's words.
At this mont, he suddenly realized Qiu Tu's intent.
Yes... Fourth Order and Fourth Order are different; a Fourth Order that can kill a Fourth Order Evil God is different from one that cannot.
And a single person... with one move... killing a Fourth Order Evil God is completely different from several people together, desperately killing a Fourth Order Evil God.
Qiu Tu's video is indeed a show of force, brazenly flaunting his top combat power to the State and the Sanctuaries.
Even if the Sanctuaries have always "publicized" that personal strength does not affect promotion.
But... that's when personal strength isn't strong enough.
Facing a master who can kill an Evil God in one move, as long as the senior leaders of the Sanctuary aren't foolish, they wouldn't reject the requests from such a skilled individual.
At worst, just promote him first, and then slowly define the scope of his authority.
Isn't it the sa that Tang Feifei has been the Deputy Speaker for so long, yet her role's scope is still not defined?
Thinking of this, Secretary Han, following this topic, even thought of more things.
He suddenly rembered that this towering man before him took a similar path years ago...
Back then, Huang Shangzong was just a Senior Colonel in the military. Although his managent ability was passable, his lack of insight ant problems often arose.
Moreover, his political skills were diocre, not adept at maneuvering. So, logically, he shouldn't have risen high.
But... Huang Shangzong carved his own path, relying solely on his personal strength, he fought his way out of the wolf-ridden Nanqu State and beca the Deputy Speaker.
Because of successfully seizing the position of Deputy Speaker, he had more opportunities to showcase his ability.
This allowed his military and economic talents to be displayed, and eventually, step by step, he climbed to the upper echelons.
The reason Secretary Han knew all these was because this wasn't so secretive news, but rather information known to many middle and senior leaders of the Sanctuary.
Because Huang Shangzong's strengths and shortcomings were very clear, back then, the senior leaders of the Sanctuary debated for two or three days whether to put him to important use.
In the end, it was the Supre Councilman Rao Geng who ended the debate with a statent.
He said, "Why, even in chaotic tis, do we humans still fight amongst ourselves? Because fighting is far simpler than working."
"Defeat one person, and you can expand your circle of power; defeat those above, and you can rise opportunistically."
"But if all promotions are only based on recognizing people and politics, then who will do the work?"
"Huang Shangzong has no political skills, so let him go to a place where no political skills are needed to work. He has no insight into people, so let those above choose his aides."
"Don't push top talents out. Unity, cooperation, that is the core of how humans beco the masters of this world."
Thinking this way, suddenly, Secretary Han felt as if Qiu Tu was walking the sa path as Huang Shangzong.
Only... compared to Huang Shangzong's lack of political maneuvers and insight into people, Qiu Tu is apparently much stronger.
Without the bias, and reminiscing about all that Qiu Tu had done over the past two years, Secretary Han suddenly thought that Qiu Tu was kind of an enhanced version of Huang Shangzong.
'I must be crazy...'
Thinking this, Secretary Han even felt like there was sothing wrong with his head.
But after comparing them one by one, he suddenly felt that this conclusion might not be so far-fetched...
'So... is Qiu Tu destined to beco a high-level leader of the Sanctuary?'
'The only things that could stop him are seniority and ti?!'
In that instant, Secretary Han even felt a bit alard...
anwhile, under the insights provided by Huang Shangzong, as soon as Secretary Han finally understood everything.
In the State Council, Ye Mingfeng, Dai Yukang, and Liu Xiongyuan, after reviewing the impact data in "Hundred-Eyes Vision", almost simultaneously ca to the sa conclusion.
