Chapter 1007 A good show begins
“Everyone, before the alchemy competition begins, there are some things we must settle.” The host said.
“If we want to compete, we should just compete. What else is there to do?” Someone cried out.
“Of course it is something very important. Otherwise, we wouldn’t do it at this time.” The host said.
“Just get to the point, what is it?”
The host looked in Song Chang Jie’s direction, asking, “Everyone knows. The other alchemy competitions have always been led by the Guild President and the Pill Subdivision leader. However, something has happened today.”
After speaking, he stopped for a moment and took in the reaction of everyone down stage before he continued, “Everyone knows that Cloud Sea City has not been peaceful as of late. Nobody knows what happened outside the city, but something happened that caused all the vegetation to turn black. The spirit beasts have also gone crazy. Our President and Subdivision Leader… they… they went out to see what happened outside the city and have yet to return. Nobody knows if they’re alive or dead!”
“What-”
The spectator area was in uproar and everyone burst into heated discussions.
“How could something like this happen?”
“How is the President and the others?”
“Heavens, then it’s going to be a big deal today!”
“…”
Everyone was incredibly surprised, but a few smarter ones caught whiff of the irregularity.
“I heard long ago that they were not in the city, but I didn’t think that they actually went out to check the situation out without returning.” Someone said, “What do we do?”
“Everyone, do not panic.” The host waved his hands, urging everyone to quieten down.
“If the President and Subdivision leader are gone, how will the alchemy competition continue?” Someone raised his voice to ask.
“This alchemy competition is one that has continued from the past. We naturally cannot cancel it.” The host said.
“Since the Guild President and Subdivision Leader are not around, how will the competition continue?”
“Exactly, exactly!”
“Could it be that the President has returned?”
“I don’t think so. If he was back, he definitely would have appeared by now.”
“Then how will this competition carry on?”
“We’ll wait and see. I have a feeling that the events of today will not be simple.”
“Everyone, quiet.” The host said, “President and Subdivision Leader may not be around, but we still have to continue with our things. Without President and Subdivision Leader, we still have the Vice President and subdivision’s Vice Leader.”
“There has never been a case where the Vice President and the subdivision’s Vice Leader has taken charge of the competition before.” Someone retorted.
“It has never been so, indeed. But I have another piece of news to tell everyone.” The host said.
“What?”
“We will have to leave it to Vice President and Subdivision Vice Leader to tell you.” The host replied.
Everyone cast their gaze to the platform as Song Chang Jie stood up and announced, “Before President left, he told me something. As to what he told me, you will know in a moment.”
He took out a sound stone, raised it high above his head and said, “This is a sound stone that those who went to look for President came back with. Inside it contains what the President and Subdivision Leader’s message.”
After speaking, he inserted spirit energy into it and Xia Zhang Tian’s words blasted through the arena.
“Chang Jie, I have a lead here and can’t give up right now. I’ll leave you guys in charge of the preparation for the alchemy competition. I know that the alchemy competition is one that has been passed down for generations. If I am unable to make it back in time for the alchemy competition, I’ll have to leave the position of President to you.”
“Ss-”
Everyone sucked in a breath and exchanged glances. They didn’t dare believe what they heard.
However, those by Xia Zhang Tian’s side didn’t agree. They cried out anxiously, “President, how could you…”
“You guys don’t have to convince me. You should know that I never wanted to be President. I’ve had this idea since a long time ago. I wanted to give him the position of President. It’s just that my plans have been brought forward.”
“President, you can’t do that!”
“You guys don’t have to say anymore. I have already made my decision. Chang Jie, you definitely have to make sure the alchemy competition continues to run smoothly.”
The voice eventually stopped. Following this, another voice sounded. It was Zhao Xiang Qi’s voice. His intentions were pretty much the same as the one before it. He also said that he wanted to pass the position of Leader to Pill Subdivision’s Vice Leader, Zhao Xiang Rui.
“This Zhao Xiang Riu is actually Zhao Xiang Qi’s blood brother. He actually wants to usurp his brother’s position as well.” Sima You Yue said with a shake of her head.
“One is so upright, while the other is so devious. The difference is huge!” Han Miao Shuang said, “Something like power… I wonder why it entices people so much.”
“The feeling of being able to summon the wind and rain is truly different from always having to lower your head before others.” Su Xiao Xiao said, “This is what entices people.”
“That’s right.” Mao San Quan agreed with a nod of his head.
“But there will always be those who are indifferent to worldly affairs.” Sima You Yue said, “At the very least, I don’t see you guys with these kinds of thoughts. Everyone just thinks about how they can give the guts to someone else.”
“That’s why I’m saying that each person is different. Their decisions are different.” Han Miao Shuang said, “Some feel that making a name for themselves is good, while others feel that it is not so. Like me, I feel that eating is the best.”
“Glutton!” Su Xiao Xiao looked at her disdainfully.
“Hehe, I’m proud of my gluttony.” Han Miao Shuang raised her head arrogantly.
Sima You Yue lost her smile and shook her head, saying, “Sigh, you. You eat too much of everything.”
“Alright, let’s stop talking. Let’s continue to watch the show.”
After Zhao Xian Qi’s voice sounded, the entire arena erupted into chaos.
Who would have thought that something like this would actually happen. The president was abdicating, this was such a big deal!
“Quiet! Quiet!” The host cried out loudly.
However, everyone continued to discuss it nonstop. Every single one wanted to voice their own thoughts and feelings.
After ten minutes passed, the entire arena finally calmed down.
“Everyone, quiet!” The host shouted these two words loudly once again. This time, everyone finally quieted down.
“President and Subdivision Leader have already made their intentions clear. Right now, whatever I want to do is to comply with their wishes. I will let Vice President Song and Vice Leader Zhao take the place of President and Subdivision Leader. Greetings to President, Subdivision Leader.”
“Greetings to President, Subdivision Leader!” Many stood up, bowing in greeting to Song Chang Jie and Zhao Xiang Rui.
The other group didn’t move. They just sat where they were, not planning to rise.
“What do you plan to do?” The host looked at them, asking with displeasure.
“Without seeing President, we will never believe that he has let you take the place of President.” Someone said.
“That’s right! Song Chang Jie just took out a sound stone and wants to seize power? That will not happen!”
“These are the words of our president himself. Do you not accept it?”
“Of course we do not.”
“Do you plan to rebel?” The host dragged his words, his eyes glaringly cold.
“Rebel? You are the ones rebelling! Do you think that we would accept you just because you produced a fake sound stone?”
“Don’t tell me that you can’t recognise President’s voice?”
“We recognise President’s voice, but voices can be mimicked. We will not accept this!’
“That’s right!”
“Is that so?” Song Chang Jie looked at them. With a wave of his hand, a group of guards rushed in from the outside.
