"Are you trying to protect yourself? Or is it a gamble to protect your power?"
Finally, Xu Anshan spoke."Since there's a dispute over this matter, we'll let the Disciplinary Committee investigate it. It's a matter of great importance. We must give them a clear result within seven days!"
"Understood."
Ji Chi got up and accepted the order.
The advisor finally heaved a sigh of relief. Ji Chi was one of his own, so he had passed this dangerous test. As for what kind of explanation he would co up with seven days later, there was too much room for manipulation, so he didn't have to worry at all.
The freshn looked at each other. Although they were suspicious, it was the first seat who gave the order. Who would have the courage to question it?
Moreover, they had already made their attitude clear and had already asked the Disciplinary Committee to investigate. What else did he want?
After all, up until now, the flow of information that the Zhuo family had provided was only an inference. It was not an established fact that the mine had really exploded. The officials were already giving them face by conducting a thorough investigation. They could not just kill the Grand Master without any evidence ...
However, Lin Yi's side was left hanging.
They were clearly trying to drag this out-after today, even if the Grand Master really did get the tenth seat, Lin Yi wouldn't be able to do anything.
Fortunately, the 10-seat Council was not the one with the highest authority.
"This case concerns the credits of many students and affects the financial security of the entire Academy. To be safe, I, the second seat, should intervene in the investigation."
Shen Qingnian said indifferently.
As the second-in-command, he was in charge of the finance of the entire Academy. All the major expenses and inco of the Academy had to be approved by him, which was why he had the confidence to compete with the first seat.
The people from the first seat couldn't help but frown. Once he forcefully interfered, things would go out of control.
However, the problem was that this matter was indeed related to the Academy's finances. If they really wanted to cut off Shen Qingnian's extended hand, it would not be reasonable. Otherwise, it would be challenging the core interests of the second-place seat. Then, it would not be a disagreent, but a complete break!
Even the first seat Xu Anshan would have to think twice about the consequences.
"Since it's a case being filed, it's not appropriate for the suspect to sit in the tenth seat. After all, he'll be one of us. Hehe, then it'll be bad if the gossip spreads. "
The third seat, Zhang Shichang, was straightforward and decisively aid his spear at the private advisor.
Ji Chi retorted in a deep voice,"this concerns the reputation of the Academy. Who would dare to spread rumors?" Do you think my Disciplinary Committee is just for show?"
"I've already spread the gossip, why?"
Zhang Shichang gave him a sidelong glance.
Ji Chi choked again. How could he face such an unreasonable man, who was above him in both status and power?
Shen Qingnian spoke again."Let's just be Frank. I don't trust the Disciplinary Committee. Unless a Joint Investigation Team is ford, this matter will not be resolved."
The atmosphere beca tense again.
The crowd was in a heated discussion. Although the second and third seats were both native, they had never been so closely connected in the past. Looking at today's situation, it was clear that they were going to be on the sa side!
Xu Anshan raised his eyebrows and asked,"can't get through?" Who can 't?"
An invisible, Emperor-like, and majestic aura instantly enveloped the entire Jade Mountain. Everyone present, regardless of their strength, couldn't help but have a strong urge to kneel.
The Emperor was furious, and the people bowed their heads.
Lin Yi was speechless-he wasn't shocked by the aura, but he felt like he was in a domain.
"Emperor's domain?"
According to common knowledge, although every cultivator's domain was unique, it was generally based on the attribute of the spiritual root. Whether it was the five basic attributes or the attributes of the various spiritual roots, they all had their own corresponding domain.
Of course, even if they had the sa spiritual root attribute, there were thousands of differences in the domain of different cultivators.
For example, in the hands of ordinary cultivators, it was a general earth elent domain. However, in the hands of Ying long and Yan Zhongyuan, it was very likely that they were specialized in the earth elent.
To a certain extent, the two's seismic and gravitational fields had already shown signs of this.
But even so, when they fully developed it in the future, it would still be in the category of the earth elent domain. At most, it would only be two special branches.
But the emperor's domain?
Lin Yi couldn't tell what elent it was at the mont. Was it the legendary compound domain?
But in any case, at least one thing was certain. Once this chief Big Shot's Emperor domain was truly activated, he would definitely be earth-shattering powerful!
"Chief, are you preparing to use your power to suppress others?"
Zhang Shichang stood up and took control of the warrior's Departnt. He was undoubtedly the number one person in the College's martial arts system. He had enough confidence no matter who he faced, including the first seat, Xu Anshan.
In comparison, even Shen Qingnian, who was second in rank, was not as unyielding as him.
The two big shots faced each other, and everyone's expressions changed. Even the experts from the Departnt of discipline and the warrior's Departnt were preparing to clear the scene. The live broadcast signal was cut off on the spot.
So things obviously couldn't be broadcasted.
A storm was coming!
Xu Anshan narrowed his eyes slightly. Too many things had gone out of his control today. If he really fell out with Zhang Shichang and the others here, the situation would be completely out of control.
That wasn't in line with his interests, but if he backed down and gave up on the Grand Master for Lin Yi to get tenth place, that was even more unacceptable!
Face was a small matter, but at certain tis, it was a huge matter.
If he retreated today, he would imdiately fall into a bottomless abyss!
"Protect Tang Yun and the others first. When we attack later, don't try to force yourself. Hide and hide if you can."
Lin Yi said to Shen Yifan and the others with his divine sense. "We're nobodies. Our reputation is worthless. It's fine to be a little cowardly."
It wasn't that Lin Yi was a coward, but if the situation really got out of hand, it would be like Mars crashing into earth. A large-scale battle like that wasn't sothing a bunch of new students could handle.
As for Chu ngyao, she had the protection of the mysterious old man. There were only a handful of people here who could hurt her.
Not to ntion, Lin Yi could feel that ngyao wasn't the sa as before-she had a solid aura around her, and she'd be in the top three even among the strong new students.
Under everyone's gaze, Xu Anshan slowly stood up and looked at Zhang Shichang across the air.
"You, really want to try?"
"Who's a coward?"Zhang Shichang laughed out loud.
The other ten Chiefs 'expressions changed. There was still room to turn things around, but with these words, there was nothing left.
The Civil War started at once.
At this mont, a gentle voice suddenly sounded in everyone's heart,""Who wants to be a grandson so badly? Why don't you let join in the fun?"
A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes suddenly appeared in the middle of the stands. At first glance, he looked very abrupt, but at second glance, he seed very natural, as if he had been there all along.
