Elder Han saw that someone had already voiced their agreement with Zhai Yi's suggestion, so he nodded his head and looked in the direction of the other martial practitioners on the arena, seeking their opinions.
The one who followed closely behind Ke Yao Cen was the one who sat on the left of Chen Yu, Hu Lu.
Wearing a graphite-colored robe, Hu Lu looked at Chen Yu from afar, and said with a smile that was not a smile:
On the contrary, I think that this suggestion is not bad. Let Chen Yu be the vice leader here, I have no objections, what about the rest of you!?
After Hu Lu had finished, he spontaneously asked the other martial artists around him for their opinion.
At this very moment, the crowd seemed indifferent to the leader position. Seeing that his strength was second only to Xu Shengjie's and also that he was an Earthly Immortal Stage expert, Hu Lu nodded his head in agreement and said:
"I think so …"
"Sure, I have no objections …"
"Me too …"
… ….
Just as these people were agreeing with Chen Yu's suggestion to be the vice leader, Xu Shengjie's sinister gaze swept over the warriors who had spoken out earlier.
After a while, more than half of the people on the stage had agreed for Chen Yu to be the assistant leader position.
On the other side, Wei Feng and Wu Xu were whispering to each other. When they saw the crowd looking their way, among them, Xu Shengjie was the coldest.
However, Zhai Yi's suggestion was undoubtedly good news for both of them.
When he had challenged Xu Shengjie just now, regardless of whether it was due to some hidden motive or some other ulterior motive, the three of them had all taken part.
With Xu Shengjie's personality, he wouldn't let the three of them off easily.
And now that Zhai Yi had brought up a suggestion that most of the martial artists present approved of, it also allowed the anxious Wei Feng, Wu Xu, to see a glimmer of hope.
What Xu Shengjie didn't allow, wasn't the Earth Immortal Realm also defeated by Chen Yu!?
Now that Chen Yu was here to control Xu Shengjie, from the looks of it, the two seemed to be very nervous.
Thinking of this, the two didn't hesitate at all. With exaggerated expressions, they gestured to the crowd and said:
"Of course not! Everyone has seen Brother Chen's strength. Not to mention vice leader, it's more than enough to be a leader … "
"That's right!" I think Chen Yu is probably the strongest amongst us, I sincerely believe that … "
The two of them did not care anymore about Xu Shengjie's threatening gaze, and spoke to Chen Yu and the rest with a look of worship.
In any case, he had already offended Xu Shengjie just now, so there was no room for compromise. So what if he offended Xu Shengjie?!
As long as Chen Yu was here, how could Xu Shengjie be arrogant?!
The two of them had the same thought in their hearts, after saying that to Elder Han, they took the initiative to walk behind Chen Yu, and directly expressed their attitude towards their leader with their actions.
Old Man Han, who had mastered the depths of the heavens, had naturally witnessed Chen Yu's attacks several times. Other than knowing that his strength was extraordinary, he had not expected his popularity to be so high.
Aside from Xu Shengjie, who remained silent for the moment, all the other disciples on the stage actually agreed to Chen Yu's suggestion of being the vice-leader.
Don't underestimate this Chen Yu, he was quite popular.
Elder Han stroked his beard. After hearing everyone's suggestions, he thoughtfully nodded his head, then picked up the Violet Vine cane and knocked on the ground twice.
"Dong …" "BOOM!"2
Everyone standing in the arena turned their attention over. The martial artists in the stands also silently shut their mouths.
"Since everyone present has no objections to Chen Yu taking the position of vice leader, then this old one shall announce that the final position of the team leader in the preliminary battle will still be taken by Xu Shengjie. As for Chen Yu, he will be the deputy leader."
After the dust settled, the face of Di Yi, who had taken the initiative to make this suggestion, naturally filled with joy when she saw Chen Yu successfully taking over the position of vice leader.
Wu Xu and Wei Feng, who were also grasshoppers on the same line as him, were no exception.
At this point, they no longer had to worry because Xu Shengjie was going to secretly use his position as the leader to target them.
Old Man Han's face showed a rare look of peace as he finished his announcement. Then, he turned to the martial practitioners in the stands and ordered them:
"Now that the preliminary battle is over, everyone can return to the Frigid Pavilion to rest for the day before heading back to their respective factions …"
Leaving the stage, Old Man Han glanced over the faces of the ten Heaven's Pride disciples that were going to participate. His eyes were filled with admiration.
"As for the ten of you, I've already sent someone to inform your factions about the results of this preliminary battle. This Martial Arts Competition will be held in a month, but it must be done before that, through the teleportation arrays within your sects, we'll reach the Saint realm in advance …"
First, he explained the most important matter to everyone else. It was as if Elder Han still had something to say, but he also felt that he was being a little long-winded. He opened his mouth, but did not say anything more.
His gaze inadvertently landed on Chen Yu's body, and after smiling knowingly, the figure with the cane in his hand was left standing on the spot.
Following the disappearance of Elder Han, all the warriors in the domain, including Chen Yu and the others who were on the stage, could only see a blur in front of them.
Coming back to his senses, he turned around and looked around at his surroundings. He actually appeared in the cold pavilion once more!
Someone raised his hand and caressed the familiar table and chairs. The feeling of being touched by the real thing shocked everyone.
The scene changed as it was real, and no one could tell whether the previous battle in the ring was real or whether the ancient inn in front of them was real.
Chen Yu, who never liked to cause himself trouble, decided to just forget about it if he couldn't understand it.
He walked past the crowd and arrived at the wine table he had been sitting at the first day he had arrived at the Frigid Pavilion. He sat down at the table.
He stretched lazily and poured himself a cup of hot tea, waiting for Gan Xiu and the others.
No matter how vast and spacious the main hall of the Frigid Pavilion was, it would seem extremely crowded if it was suddenly filled with over a hundred warriors.
The more people there were, the more trouble there would be.
There was an endless stream of noise.
"Ah!" "Watch carefully, don't you have eyes …?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry …"
"Damn, don't push …"
Just as Chen Yu was happily sipping his tea, a figure appeared in front of him and sat down without saying a word.
Those who did not know would think that Chen Yu was like this man who had been friends for many years, he casually poured himself a cup of hot tea, and was not in a hurry to drink it, but was playing with the entire teacup in his hand.
Seeing that Chen Yu did not bother to respond to him, he did not mind and with an embarrassed smile, took the initiative to congratulate her:
"Greetings to Vice Leader Chen …"
