Extreme Spirit Chaos Technique

Lingyun’s eyes were filled with determination, and Mu Chen’s competitive spirit was completely ignited. It wasn’t for any reward; for Mu Bingling alone, he had to break Amoluo’s record. Amoluo was the top-ranked Martial Artist in the Holy Hall. By breaking his record, Mu Chen would accomplish his goal of taking Mu Bingling back. Furthermore, Lingyun had mentioned that the Empire’s reward could actually affect his family. For someone like Mu Chen, who had a strong sense of belonging, this undoubtedly ignited all his inner motivation. The location of his family’s residence had always been a worry for him. It was on the edge of the Empire. If a Beast Tide were to erupt, Luofeng City would be the first to be crushed by Magical Beasts, and even the Imperial Capital wouldn’t be able to send aid in time. ’Living there is definitely not a long-term solution. Since I have a chance to change this outcome, I must break the record in the Tower of Calamity.’ 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Lingyun saw the fighting spirit ignite in Mu Chen’s eyes. Knowing his motivation had been sparked, she smiled. "That was the first matter. Now for the second, which is more relevant to our class. As the special class, a collective, you must have a representative—a class president. So now, I’ll have you vote to elect two positions: class president and vice president. The two people holding these positions cannot be from the same squad. You will now vote. I will write the names of the nominees on the blackboard, and the one with the most votes will win. Let’s start with the position of class president."

"Mu Chen!"

Without the slightest hesitation, student after student called out the name they felt was most suitable. On the Extreme Martial Continent, martial prowess was paramount, and Mu Chen’s prestige in the academy’s Outer Circle was unquestionable. You could say that if Amoluo was the pillar of the Holy Hall, then Mu Chen was the backbone of the Outer Circle. No one but Mu Chen was fit to be class president.

"This... You’re all giving me too much credit."

Seeing everyone nominate him, Mu Chen rubbed his nose in embarrassment. He hadn’t expected so many people to support him. In truth, he didn’t actually want to be class president. He yearned for freedom and a life without constraints, a trait he shared with his father, Mufeng.

Lingyun smiled. "How is it giving you too much credit? I also think you’re a great fit for the special class’s president. A collective needs a spiritual pillar, and that pillar must embody the will of the entire class. Since everyone voted for Mu Chen, the role of the special class’s first president will be filled by Mu Chen. Next is the vice president. The vice president can exercise all the president’s rights in their absence. Begin voting."

"I recommend Qiu He."

Just as everyone was still pondering, Mu Chen suddenly spoke up and recommended Qiu He. The nomination was so abrupt that even Lingyun was a little confused. She knew of this student, Qiu He; he was usually quiet and not very well-known among his peers. His Martial Artist Realm was certainly not the highest, either. In the past month, the Martial Artist Realms of Little Tiger, Mo Qing, Ye Shuangshuang, and Qing Lei had improved with incredible speed. Little Tiger was a Fourth-Ring Martial Master; Mo Qing, originally only a Third-Ring Martial Master, had reached the level of a Seventh-Ring Martial Master after reverting to his original appearance; Ye Shuangshuang had also reached the Sixth-Ring Martial Master Realm, and even Qing Lei was a Sixth-Ring Martial Master. No one knew what these people had done during the break, but their Martial Artist Realms had indeed progressed a bit too quickly.

’Looking back at Qiu He’s Martial Artist Realm, he was already a First-Ring Martial Master when school started. He made some progress over the break, reaching the Second-Ring Martial Master Realm. But compared to Mu Chen and the others, his talent is really nothing special. So what could be Mu Chen’s reason for recommending him?’

Qiu He looked at Mu Chen, equally bewildered. ’Why would Mu Chen recommend me? We’ve barely ever spoken. I’m surprised he even knows my name.’

"Mu Chen recommends Qiu He. Are there any other nominations?" Lingyun called out clearly.

"No!"

The response was perfectly synchronized. Mu Chen was a little surprised. ’I only recommended one person. Why is the whole class reacting like this?’ He had, in fact, underestimated his status in the hearts of the Outer Circle Students. Lingyun was overjoyed. It seemed that thanks to Mu Chen, the special class’s cohesiveness had reached an unprecedented level, which led to the swift confirmation of the vice president.

"In that case, Qiu He will serve as the class vice president. During Mu Chen’s absence, Qiu He may exercise all the rights of the president." Lingyun had thought it would take some time to settle the vice president position, but the outcome was unexpectedly swift. "Both matters are resolved. Now, all students except for Mu Chen, follow me. What awaits you is a life-and-death trial where you may have to pay with your lives at any moment."
