The Hero League HQ, Meeting Room
Bai Xian Ming was sitting on the main seat with a grave look on his face. After the Feng Family's betrayal and the rigged match of the Fighter Anteriority's main event, the number of the executive reduced only to 10 members.
Yes, the mastermind behind the rigged match was an executive. Yuan Huo Cheng, an executive appointed by the Yuan Family. He was the culprit behind the rigged match between the Heero Academy.
The furious Bai Xian Ming immediately dismissed Yuan Huo Cheng at that time. Not only that, but he also punished the Yuan Family.
Yuan Huo Cheng replacement would be chosen by the Hero League, not the Yuan Family. It meant the Yuan Family lost their executive spot in the Hero League.
Amongst the current executives, two of them had not arrived yet. Aside from the executive, five out of seven Hero Instructors were already on their seats.
"Can we start the meeting now, Executive Bai?" Hanzo Sojuro, an executive from the Hanzo Clan opened his mouth. One could discern impatience in his tone.
He had been waiting for fifteen minutes in the meeting room. As someone who was famous for his hot temper, this was a normal occurrence. This was not the first time and the other executives also looked toward Bai Xian Ming.
They wanted to know what Bai Xian Ming wanted to talk with them too.
Bai Xian Ming nodded his head. With a few clicks on his smartwatch, a projection appeared in the middle of the table. The projection was showing the pictures sent by his granddaughter early.
"First, in this battle, we suffered a lot of casualties and we lost two important figures. Feng Ban Xou who betrayed us and Ye Chen who died at Ence Fort!"
Along with his words, Ye Chen's head picture was enlarged. Everyone in the meeting room was shocked to see this.
"Second, Ence Fort has fallen in the hand of the Shadow Fang. Ye Chen lost his life in defending Ence Fort, "
"Third��"
Bai Xian Ming showed another picture. It was a gate, West Gate of Ence Fort. At first, everyone was puzzled as to why Bai Xian Ming showed this picture to them. It was just a normal small gate.
"This is the picture of the west gate of Ence Fort!"
With his words, then everyone understood the implication behind the picture.
"What?" Two executives stood up from the seat. They looked at the picture carefully.
Kang Myung-Chul also stood up from the seat, "But how?"
They were shocked because the gate that connected to the second dungeon vanished. Yes, the second dungeon disappeared.
"I don't know, but I am sure it must be the Shadow Fang's doing. I call you here to discuss these issues!"
"We lost two Emperor Class Heroes in this battle! It's a great loss to us, but thanks to this battle, we also found many talented heroes!"
After saying that, Bai Xian Ming showed another two pictures. Two pictures of men appeared in the middle of the table.
"I plan to promote these two to Emperor Class. They have contributed a lot during the battle against the specters and they deserve a promotion!"
"I disagree!" Krishna Davale, an executive from Orient Family objected while pointing his finger at one picture. He pointed at Musashi Hirata's picture.
"I understand if you want to promote Sun Zhou Yi. He deserves a promotion indeed, but not him!"
Orient Family was in fact not a family. It was more like an organization. But they called themselves the Orient Family, telling the others they were equal to the other families.
A strong objection came from Krishna Davale. Not only Krishna Davale, everyone except for Kang Myung-Chul and Musashi Kaminaga also raised an objection. They strongly rejected Musashi Hirata's promotion to Emperor Class.
Of course, their rejection was not without reason. They had their own reason.
"Let's not talk about his ability, his identity is dubious. It was not long since he joined the Hero League, he is but a former ranker!" Krishna Davale stated his reason in a displeased tone.
"Not only is his identity dubious, but his ability is also dubious. He will ruin the image of Emperor Class Hero if his ability is not in par with the other Emperor Class Heroes!" Wu Shanxi, an executive from the Wu Family also stated his reason.
The other executives also echoed in agreement at the two executives' statements.
"First, his identity is clear. He is from the Musashi Clan, his father is Musashi Kenzan and his brother is Musashi Naizen. On top of that, he is part of the Hero Academy! How come his identity is dubious?"
Bai Xian Ming told in detail about Musashi Hirata's identity. In fact, he knew the reason behind their objection. It was because Musashi Hirata was part of the Musashi Clan.
If Musashi Hirata was promoted to Emperor Class Hero, there would be three Emperor Class Heroes from the Musashi Clan. They won't let this happen.
"As for his ability, he managed to defeat Arun Seth with ease in the main event of Fighter Anteriority! He is qualified to be the Emperor Class Hero!"
"Not enough! It's not enough! I believe any Emperor Class Hero can also defeat Arun Seth!" Hanzo Sojuro could not accept Bai Xian Ming's reasoning.
"Also, what about this Heero Academy? Does this academy have any relation with the Hero League?" Krishna Davale echoed in agreement with Hanzo Sojuro.
"Huh?! No, the Hero League is not related to the Heero Academy in any way! However, this academy is established by Sun Zhou Yi's Master!" Bai Xian Ming replied with an eased up expression.
Even though the Hero League faced a crisis from losing their force in the battle against the specters. They had found a big backer that could restore the Hero League's force.
Not only this person could help the Hero League restore their force, but this person also could make the Hero League grow stronger.
"Not only that, but I also want to appoint Sun Zhou Yi's Master as Supreme Sun! That position has long been vacant! So I, as the Chief Executive of the Hero League, propose to appoint Sun Zhou Yi's Master, Xing Heero, to be Supreme Sun!"
"I disagree!!!" Everyone in the room stood up and slammed the table. They raised an objection in unison.
Everyone except for Kang Myung-Chul, he was rooted in his chair with an unbelievable look on his face.
Not only Kang Myung-Chul, but Park Yong-Gi also froze. He froze on his chair when Xing Heero's name entered his ears.
Supreme Sun, it was the highest position that could be achieved in the Hero League. A position that each individual tried to grab. Especially, the big families, they desired this position.
A position that would not be shackled by any law and regulation. Having one of their family members holding this position would hold solidify their family status.
Aside from the Supreme Sun, there were also Supreme Star and Supreme Moon. These three positions could be said the guardian of the city.
The current Supreme Star was a former Emperor Class Hero, Wu Shitian of the Wu Family and the current Supreme Moon was a former Emperor Class Hero, Kim Jung-Mun of the Kim Family.
The three supreme was called Supreme Guardian. Their duties were to protect the city from any danger and also had an obligation to nurture the younger generation.
The Supreme Sun had long been vacant. The beforehand Supreme Sun was from the Bai Family, but Supreme Sun died due to old age a few years ago.
This position had long been vacant and now, Bai Xian Ming found the right person to hold this position.
In order to be the Supreme Guardian, they had to gain the two other Supreme Guardians, The Elder, and The Executive of the Hero League approval. Now, Bai Xian Ming was trying to get approval from the executive.
Despite his weary expression from the long battle and the strong rejection from the other executives, Bai Xian Ming was smiling ear to ear.
"Kukuku… Don't hurry to object! I have something to show you guys!" As he said that, Bai Xian Ming clicked his smartwatch.
Sun Zhou Yi and Musashi Hirata's pictures disappeared and replaced by over ten minutes of footage.
Bai Xian Ming did not immediately play the footage and dropped a bomb to the other executives.
"Oh, I forget to tell you that The Elder had given their approval. They agreed to my proposal after watching this footage. I also had sent this footage to the two other Supreme Guardians! I believe they will also give their approval soon!"
After he finished his words, Bai Xian Ming played the footage. It was the footage he got from the north gate.
Just like how Sun Zhou Yi's action recorded by the camera in the north gate. Heero's two strikes also recorded by the same lens.
The footage was bound to silence the objection from the other executives and Bai Xian Ming believed the other executives would agree with his proposal after watching the footage.
