Chapter 340 The Master of the Learned Supreme Tower
January 23, Storm Calendar 4426, at ten o'clock in the morning, the special program "United Tower Executive Meeting-Speaker Selection" held at the Seven Towers Optical Vision Station, several Da'ao Master guests were talking.
But he was soon interrupted by the host: "Okay, teachers, please wait a moment. Our station has just received the news from the Union Tower. The new speaker of the Union Tower Standing Meeting has been successfully elected. The former Supreme Leader of the Erudue Tower The chairman of the committee, Sir Thelsus, has officially assumed the position of speaker of the Union Tower Standing Meeting.”
There was a pause.
The host continued: "The position of chairman of the Supreme Council of the Tower of Knowledge is held by Lord Duke, a formal member of the Council of Stars and the chief sage of the Tower of Offa."
The results have been announced.
The host announced another news: "Next, we will broadcast live the swearing-in of Speaker Sirsus and Chairman Duke in the Union Tower and Erudite Tower respectively, and then live broadcast the question and answer session for reporters inside and outside the Federation. "
The swearing-in ceremony requires further preparation.
So the program on the Seven Towers Optical Television Station did not stop, and the host began to ask several Da'ao Mage guests about their opinions on the candidates for the Speaker.
"Lord Sirsas is a prophet in the field of erudition. He has been committed to promoting the development of natural history and accelerating the development of federal society for many years..." Naturally, the great mages began to praise and express their admiration for the new Speaker.
certainly.
With Duke being elected as Chairman of the Supreme Committee, the Dao mages will also not forget to praise him.
"As we all know, Lord Duke is one of the Five Rings Prophets and Seven Sages, who created the current era of subtle spirituality. His academic achievements in spiritual arcana involve many fields, but the one that has changed the society the most is undoubtedly the natural history of learning.”
“Lord Duke is currently only a fourth-level earth arcane mage, but his achievements in spiritual arcane magic are 100% certain that he will be promoted to the stars sooner or later.”
“He became a formal member of the Council of Stars before, which is a proof of this.”
“Although our federation has a tradition that the six major speakers are all served by Huiyue Arcane Master, the tradition has also developed step by step. It is not a bad thing to change the tradition occasionally... Moreover, Lord Duke’s future is limitless.”
“So it is very practical for Mr. Duke to serve as the chairman of the Supreme Committee.”
After a lot of praise, another half hour passed, until at 10:40 in the morning, the live broadcast of the inauguration ceremony finally started.
At the highest level of the Union Tower, in the auditorium at the top of the white clouds, Selsus took over the supreme scepter that symbolized the power of the head of state.
This is a quasi-arcane weapon that has been passed down for many years.
After being refined into an arcane weapon, it can exert good combat effectiveness, but no one will choose to refine it and only regard it as a symbol of power.
"After three thousand three hundred years of ups and downs, the Seven Towers Federation, with the efforts of all the people, has become a holy land of spiritual arcana and the greatest habitat of mankind. It has realized the dream led by Sage Abbots. My sages, sincere hope.”
Selsas looked solemn and majestic in front of the live broadcast camera and Kaka's constant taking and taking pictures.
Under the red arcane robe, the aura of the star abyss radiates to the entire audience.
"Now, I have taken over the supreme scepter from Speaker Andre Primrose and become the new Speaker. I will vow to lead the people of the Federation on a new journey, explore higher peaks of spiritual arcana, and Expose the spiritual arcana to the world and enjoy the new life brought by the spiritual arcana together."
Said.
Sersus, like the ancestors in his memory, raised the supreme scepter high and shouted loudly: "The spirit will be with you forever, the Federation of Seven Towers!"
In an instant, everyone in the audience, whether they were stars or ordinary reporters, followed Selsus' call and shouted loudly.
“Spiritual love forever, Seven Towers Federation!”
On the star viewing platform, Duke, like the stars around him, raised his hands high and shouted slogans. And sincerely hope that spirituality can always bless the Seven Towers Federation.
And this scene.
Through the live broadcast of the Seven Towers Optical Television Station and the rebroadcast of the Optical Television Station in other places, with the help of the Ring of Optical Information, it was instantly spread to millions of households across the federation.
I don’t know how many people followed the call in the photoreceptor and cheered loudly at home, in shopping malls, and on the streets.
“Spiritual love forever, Seven Towers Federation!”
The live broadcast is not over yet. After Selsus is sworn in, he still has to ask questions from reporters inside and outside the federation. During the questions and answers, he explains his policy agenda.
“It has been many years since there has been such a big scene.” Lambert Raven was sitting in the first row of the Star Observation Tower and sighed softly.
As one of the six newly-appointed Speakers, Duke was naturally also in the first row of the Starry Observatory. Hearing this, he laughed and said: "In the past, when the Speaker was sworn in, wasn't the scene so lively?"
"The scenes should be similar, but I did not see the inauguration scene with my own eyes. At that time, I was still serving as the guardian of the Huguang area, and there was no live broadcast on the optical television station. I could only take a look at the pictures of the scene through newspapers the next day. "
He said, and then said with emotion: "Thanks to you for inventing the Ring of Light, the inauguration ceremony of the Speaker of Lord Thersus can now be said to be a celebration for all people. I don't know how much spiritual feedback can be harvested, which may help Thersas step forward." Let’s take the first step to emerge from the Chapter of the Coronation Sun.”
Spiritual feedback does not require the achievement of spiritual arcana.
As the head of the Seven Towers Federation, he is closely related to the prosperity of spiritual arcana in the entire country, and can naturally receive spiritual feedback.
“Can all the six Speakers get spiritual feedback?” Duke asked.
“They can do it, but it’s definitely not as good as the head of state, or even as much spiritual feedback as your level one achievement.”
"Well, if that's the case, I shouldn't run for the chairmanship of the Supreme Committee. I should give way to His Excellency Zidele Xingling." Duke said without any sincerity, "I have five levels of achievement, and there is actually a lot of spiritual feedback. There’s no end to it.”
Lambert Raven was speechless for a moment when he heard the words.
Zidele Xingling, who was sitting in the next seat next door, naturally heard Duke's Versailles. He turned his head and forced a smile: "Your Excellency Duke is joking. To me, these spiritual feedbacks are like useless."
He shook his head and sighed: "If it weren't for Mr. Andre's extraordinary talents, even if we had more spiritual feedback, we would only be able to take two more steps on the Chapter of the Coronation Sun. It would not be of any help to the impact of the 9th ring of the sun, nor would it I dare not hope that it will be of any help."
The Chapter of the Coronation of the Sun is a long road. Assuming there are a hundred steps, the spiritual feedback from the head of state can only allow people to take two more steps.
But the remaining ninety-eight steps are still in vain.
Another Huiyue Arcane Master beside him, Sa Rilang, also joined in the whispers: "Qi Dele is right, I and others have no such hope, but Duke, if you get more spiritual feedback, you will be successful in cultivation one day earlier. , there will be a lot of time in the future to hit the 9th Ring Sun."
“It’s too early to talk about the 9th Ring Sunshine now.” Duke smiled, “My current goal is one and only one, which is to hit the stars as soon as possible!”
“It’s easy for you.” Sarilang smiled.
He looked at Duke, and a feeling of jealousy emerged in his heart. The thirty-year-old Six Speakers had never felt this before.
certainly.
For Duke, there are too many times like never before.
There have never been such young second-level arcane mage, third-level arcane mage, and fourth-level earth arcane mage since ancient times. There have never been such young five-level prophets and seven sages since ancient times. There have never been such young ones since ancient times. 4th Ring Dragon Knight.
The 5th level elf Qi refining master that has never existed since ancient times.
It has never happened since ancient times that he was granted a formal member of the Stars Conference as a non-Star, and was also elected to the six speaker positions that only Huiyue can hold.
It is conceivable.
This record, unprecedented in history, will appear more times as Duke grows, constantly breaking people's common sense.
"Your Excellency Sarilang, you think too highly of me." Duke waved his hand modestly, "More than four years have passed and I have not yet passed the halfway point of my fourth-level practice. It can be seen that the higher the level, the harder it is to practice. It’s been a smooth journey getting promoted.”
To be precise, Duke's fourth level has reached about 43% progress.
It was much faster than he expected to complete the twelve years of cultivation, mainly because the knowledge of spiritual arcana brought by the Qi Refining Ring was far more than imagined.
“It’s been four years, and you haven’t completed the fourth level of practice yet?” Sarilang rolled his eyes, “Listen, is this human language?”
Lambert Raven shook his head: "I practiced in the fourth level for twenty-five years."
“I wasted thirty-seven years in the fourth level!” Zidele Xingling sighed and couldn’t help but glance at Duke.
What do you think, why do you feel unhappy?
Sarilang hummed: "If I had known earlier, I should have voted for Qi Dele. Otherwise, you would be elected as the Chairman of the Supreme Committee and delay your practice. You have not been halfway through four years of practice. If you are not satisfied with your practice after eight years, at least you have to do it." Nine years?”
“Haha. Haha.” Duke interrupted with a smile to avoid being crowded by the three Huiyue.
"Regret!" Zidele Xingling joked, "I shouldn't have voted for you yesterday. If I had known, I would have voted for myself!"
Speaking of which, Duke’s election as Chairman of the Supreme Committee was really over the heads of Zidele Awakening and Lambert Raven.
In the first round, Duke received twenty-one votes from the forty-eight members of the Council of Stars, Zidele Awakening received eighteen votes, and Lambert Raven received nine votes. Duke voted for Lambert Raven, but Lambert Raven was eliminated in the first round.
Duke saw that Lambert Raven, with whom he had a close relationship, was eliminated, and also saw that he had received more votes than Zidele Awakening.
Then he had a thought of "I have the advantage": "The water of the Supreme Committee is too deep, Qidele Xingling, I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp it!"
So he decisively voted for himself in the second round of voting.
In the end, Zidele Xingling won the election for chairman of the Supreme Committee with twenty-seven votes over twenty-one.
Although Zidele Xingling has profound qualifications, he cannot overwhelm Duke's prestige as the Five-ring Prophet and the Seven Sages.
certainly.
This is probably because Duke, as a prophet in the field of erudition, is consistent with his status as the supreme committee member of the erudition tower. The stars were too lazy to go to great lengths to adjust personnel, so they simply promoted Duke to the Supreme Committee. In this way, the entire high-level framework of the Seven Towers Federation remained basically unchanged.
How you played music in the past will be how you dance in the future.
Without being able to joke a few more words, Selsus was still accepting questions from reporters on the stage. Duke bowed his hands to those around him, and then the figure shattered with a crash.
This is his intermediate clone, lasting only twenty minutes.
Return to the true body.
The light-viewing station in the office is currently broadcasting live. Duke can continue to watch the reporter's Q&A, then have lunch and get ready.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the earth replication ring was activated again, condensing the earth clone.
At this time, his inauguration ceremony as Chairman of the Supreme Committee will be held. Just like Selsus' inauguration as Speaker, it will also be broadcast live on the Seven Towers Optical Television Station. The grandness is not much worse than Selsus's inauguration ceremony.
As for the number of live broadcast viewers, it is probably much higher than Selsus.
after all.
Duke is now the top figure in the Seven Towers Federation, and even in the world. How can the mere head of the Seven Towers Federation be compared with the world's greatest sage.
Facing the live broadcast camera, the flashing lights, and wearing the "Erudition Hat", a quasi-archaic symbol of power, Duke read his inaugural address loudly. “The Era of Dongwei Spirituality has begun, and the radiance of spiritual arcana will soon shine on every inch of the wilderness continent... I will lead the Supreme Committee of the Erudite Tower to witness with everyone this great era that is blooming!”
Hurrah la la la…
At the top of the Erudite Tower, the auditorium, which was also above the white clouds, quickly erupted into loud applause, drowning everything.
Light spread the signal of this inauguration ceremony to thousands of households through optical fibers.
"handsome!"
“Prophet Duke does what he says, if you ask me, the speaker of the Senate should be Duke!”
"Cultivation in the Sea of Qi includes the Ring of Qi Refining and the Qi of All Things; Cultivation in the Sea of Blood includes the Ring of Fantasy Beasts and the Dragon Knight; Cultivation in the Sea of Spirits includes the Ring of Lingxi and the Lingxi Mage... fellow practitioners of Duke Prophet Sanhai, all The monks all benefited from this!”
…
“What is the Supreme Audit Committee? Why haven’t I heard of it before?”
“If you don’t read newspapers, you don’t know anything... This Supreme Committee is dedicated to promoting the development of the field of erudition. All inventions and creations need to be reviewed by the Supreme Committee, and then promoted to the society by the Supreme Committee. It can be said that it is closely related to our lives.”
“Well, isn’t this the function of the Erudite Tower? Does it overlap?”
"You just need to understand it this way. There is no vertical leadership relationship between the Erudite Towers in various places. The Erudite Supreme Tower cannot control the Erudite Towers in our city, but the Supreme Committee has absolute jurisdiction over any Erudite Tower. The Six Speakers are the real leaders of the Seven Towers. Number one!"
“But don’t we have seven towers?”
"Offa Tower and Tower of Stars are exceptions. There is only one Supreme Tower... Offa Tower Adjudication Committee is responsible for managing the Magic Tower; the Upper and Lower Councils are all responsible for managing the Union Tower; the Element Tower Mobilization Committee manages the Element Tower, and the Observation Tower Judgment Committee manages observation Tower; the Supreme Committee of the Erudite Tower governs the Erudite Tower...that's it."
“You know so much!”
“That means I didn’t open the spiritual sea. Otherwise, I would have to take the top spot in the meeting of stars!”
…
“Who would have imagined that the young man who came to my Mage Tower for further study would actually reach the high position of the Six Speakers in just a dozen years.”
In the Duke Sage Mage Tower.
A group of professors and associate professors were invited by Suktara to the luxurious lounge to watch the live broadcast of the Optical Television Station.
Penrose, who has officially served as the chief executive of the Union Tower in Cuihai City, looked at the high-spirited Duke on the photoscope and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"Haha, there are more things you can't think of. So what about the six Speakers? For Lord Duke, this is just a small step." Christian Raging Waves stroked his beard, his old face full of kindness, "9 The sun is the end!"
“Hiss, is it a 9-ring sun?” Someone in the room gasped.
Christian Raging Waves chuckled and said: "The legendary dragon knight, Lord Duke, has been promoted; the never-born Qi Refining Master, Lord Duke has been demonstrated. So the next legendary 9-ring sun, I think it is also It’s a natural thing.”
Although he has a lot of weight... his great-granddaughter is already married to Duke.
But Christian Fury still respectfully calls Duke "my lord", which is a heartfelt admiration for Duke's attainments in the spiritual arcane field.
Age cannot determine anything.
The height of spiritual arcana is the standard by which everything is measured.
"If such a day comes, hiss..." Kailic Gray Deer took another breath of cold air, but soon felt relieved, "With Lord Duke's talent, what you said makes sense indeed, but... that is spirituality The pinnacle of arcane magic, the 9th Ring Sun!"
“Just wait, one day there will come a time.” Christian Raging Waves is full of confidence.
Suktara stabbed: "Although, but, you and I are afraid that we will never see this day again, Lord Kirston."
"Ouch, I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me." Christiansen Fury tugged on his beard, "I am already over two hundred years old, and only have a few decades left to live... I am really not willing to accept it, seeing the beginning of the legend, But I can’t witness the arrival of the legend!”
“Eh.” Kilia Fury interrupted Grandpa’s sigh, “Look, is that Lord Erwin?”
During the live broadcast on the Guangwang Station, the screen briefly switched to the viewing platform.
One of them was a smiling old arcanist mage who was applauding, and it turned out to be Erwin, the former chief director of the Erudite Tower in Shenjiao City.
"Erwin works in the Erudite Tower. It's normal to appear on the viewing platform." Christian Fury didn't actually notice Erwin because the screen cut and then flashed past, but this inexplicably touched his heart. Heartstrings.
Turning around, he asked, "Erwin's earth copy ring was sent to the Holy City of Arcane. Hasn't the advanced copy ring been sent back yet?"
“It seems not, but I heard that he will put the intermediate copy ring in the mage tower.”
“Well, this old boy…”
The scenes of the past slowly flashed through his mind, and Christian Raging Wave sighed: "I'm afraid this old boy is complaining about me in his heart, complaining that I still don't retreat even though I'm so old... I know that he never forgets the Chief Consul... Alas! "
Suktara and others rushed to comfort him.
But Christian Raging Waves thought about it at this moment: "I won't live long, and Erwin won't live long either. Let him come back. I will abdicate tomorrow... The chief executive of Shenjiao City's Union Tower, Leave it to Erwin to sit."
“Lord Christian, have you really decided?” Suktara asked.
"I've decided what I'm going to do to lie to you." Having truly decided, Christian Fury felt relieved, "This position is my inner demon, and I'm afraid it will become Erwin's inner demon as well. Let him come." After sitting for a while and getting rid of his inner demons, maybe he can still hope to be promoted to Ocean Arcane Mage!"
Suktara smiled and said: "If you sincerely retreat, you will have solved your inner demons. There is hope for Sky Arcane Mage."
“Old madam, you think too highly of me, the ocean is already my limit, haha, don’t expect too much, this life is already worth it.”
“Why do you get sad while we are chatting?” Kilia Furious Wave asked.
“Haha, we old guys are half buried in the ground, but we can talk about life and death in just a few words.”
“Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s continue to look at the light.”
…
In the Erudite Tower, the Supreme Committee is located on a floor slightly above the waistline, not on the top floor. Similarly, Duke's office is not on the top floor either.
The office that once belonged to Thersus has become his office.
The assistant team has quickly completed the re-decoration and layout of the office. Everything is replicating the style of Duke's office in Offa High Tower and Union High Tower. They have also recruited an office director to be responsible for the on-site office.
"Director Gerlio, the interview room is set up. You can invite Chairman Duke to sit in and accept the interview." The head of the live broadcast team came to communicate with the office director.
The director of the office is actually the former greeter of the Erudite Tower, Gerio Baidu.
When Duke came to the Holy City of Offa for the first time, he was greeted by Gerio White Dolphin. At that time, Gerio White Dolphin was a third-level arcane mage. Now, more than ten years later, the opponent is already an earth arcana mage. But it's a pity that it's the Lingxi Arcane Mage who smuggled into the country.
After being promoted to Lingxi Arcana Mage, he still held the position of welcome envoy, which made Gerio White Dolphin feel a little aggrieved.
So as soon as Duke recruited him, he took the initiative to apply.
“Okay, wait a moment, I’ll go and notify the master right away.” Gerio Baidu personally inspected the interview room before turning around and leaving.
After a while.
Duke, surrounded by Gerio Baidu and others, came to the interview room, sat on a chair and waited for the live broadcast camera to switch.
The host is none other than his exclusive host, Alyssa Moon Falcon.
The two of them have worked together many times, and Alyssa Moon Falcon already has a deep understanding of what should be asked and what should not be asked, what kind of conversation rhythm Duke likes, and what kind of jokes are appropriate.
Wait until the red light on the camera comes on.
Alyssa Yue Falcon immediately faced the camera and said: "Okay, today we are honored to invite the new chairman of the Supreme Audit Committee, Mr. Duke, to accept a live interview with the Seven Towers Optical Vision Station. Mr. Duke, welcome you."
“Hello, Alyssa, hello to the audience in front of the photoscope.” Duke smiled and waved.
“At this moment, as the Chairman of the Supreme Committee, can you tell us how you feel now?”
"Excited and anxious." Duke replied, "Taking over as Chairman of the Supreme Committee is actually beyond my expectation. But since the stars support me, trust me, and entrust me with important responsibilities, then I should rise up and Try to do your job well.”
“Is it convenient for you to reveal your policy agenda?”
"Two aspects, one is around technological innovation to bring more new technologies and inventions that benefit the people; the other is the sinking of spiritual arcana to promote the vigorous development of society so that everyone can enjoy the spiritual arcana. The convenience brought by the law.”
Different identities naturally lead to different attitudes.
In the past, Duke’s interview style was more lively, and occasionally he would incorporate a few jokes to show his humorous side.
But this time, as the chairman of the Supreme Committee, he shoulders a heavy responsibility, so Duke’s interview was mainly based on seeking truth from facts, and the content of the conversation was more serious. Finally, in a half-hour interview, he conveyed his policy agenda.
“Okay, thank you Chairman Duke for accepting our interview.” Alyssa Yue Falcon stood up and shook hands with Duke.
Smoothly, Alyssa Yue Falcon's little finger gently scraped Duke's palm three times.
This is a code.
The secret code passed down by Patriarch Bodhi and Sun Wukong.
The live broadcast camera has been cut off. Duke thought for a moment and thought of agreeing to Winona Yingzhu to spend the night at her place.
Then he said softly: "Let's do it another day."
Alyssa Yue Falcon had a hint of sadness in her eyes, but she nodded meekly and responded in a low voice: "I'm available at any time."
After seeing off the group of people from the Seven Towers Optical Observation Observatory, Duke did not leave his office, but walked around the office.
He has been to Selsus' office many times and is no stranger to the layout of the office. Now that this place belongs to him, it feels different.
At this time.
Gerlio White Dolphin walked in: "Sir, Chief Director of Madron Rhodiola Rosea, here to visit you."
“Invite him in.” Duke sat on the sofa and turned around, waiting for the arrival of Maderon Rhodiola, the chief director of the Erudite Tower.
Strictly speaking.
From this moment on, he has become the true master of this tower of learning.
