Chapter 3578

Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar immediately spoke up, "High Priest, should I go warn them?"

As long as they do not leave Sea God's Island, if the other party is smart, they naturally know what to do!

Sea Girl Holy Pillar then added, "Yes, High Priest, as long as you command it, we guarantee he will never be able to speak again!"

Poseissi, however, shook his head and refused, "No need, let them speak if they want to speak, after all, it is the truth, right?"

Although he did not understand the former's meaning, Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar still slightly nodded and said, "Yes… High Priest!"

Immediately after, the former glanced at Sea Girl Holy Pillar and reminded, "And, Sea Girl, they are still people of Sea God's Island, don't say things that affect unity later!"

The latter quickly assured, "I... I understand, High Priest, it won't happen again!"

The other Sea Soul Masters participating in the battle for the Sacred Pillars, however, were somewhat dumbfounded, not knowing what the situation was…

You see, though those two individuals used distasteful methods, they indeed stood till the end, but were still driven away by the High Priest and the Sacred Pillars…

Could it be that the selection for the new Sacred Pillars was already predetermined, regardless of the outcome of the melee, only the internally pre-selected two could assume the position!

Indeed, otherwise the High Priest wouldn't have possibly devised such a haphazard method…

It seemed that Poseissi heard their thoughts, as she slowly turned around…

Her gaze fixated on these Sea Soul Masters…

"Did you all witness what just happened?"

At this sight, the Sea Soul Masters quickly nodded…

But the next second, they felt that this answer was problematic, hurriedly shook their heads…

"High Priest, we didn't see anything just now!"

"Yes, we saw nothing, it was those two individuals who gave up the qualifications to become Sacred Pillars themselves and left!"

"Did... did something happen just now? I... I don't know."

"After the melee ended, I was just bending over catching my breath, nothing should have happened…"

The High Priest saying this probably means that he wants them to bury today's events in their hearts…

If they said they saw something, they might be silenced…

Poseissi chuckled lightly, "Don't be nervous, the two from before, they did win the melee, but the methods used were too contemptible. Such people are not suitable to become Sacred Pillars of Sea God's Island!"

"After all... the duty of the Sacred Pillars is to protect Sea God's Island, even at the cost of sacrificing their own lives!"

Upon hearing this, they then realized they had misunderstood the former's meaning and showed expressions of sudden realization…

"So... that's what it was, we didn't expect, High Priest, that you were considering the well-being of Sea God's Island, which is why you drove away those two individuals!"

"What the High Priest said is correct, if we really let those two who use despicable methods assume the positions of Sacred Pillars, who knows, they might defect to the enemy at the first sign of danger!"

"It was our petty minds measuring a noble one, to doubt the High Priest earlier, truly embarrassing!"

"High Priest, although we can understand your painstaking efforts, I still have one question, do we still need to select two individuals for the positions of Sacred Pillars?"

Poseissi was slightly surprised, but still responded truthfully, "Of course, we need to select new Sacred Pillars, and, based on your performances in the melee earlier, I already have suitable candidates in mind!"

During the recent fight, she observed every scene and naturally knew who the most appropriate two were!

At these words, the Sea Soul Masters also became excited, looking hopeful at the former…

The words of the High Priest meant that two of them would become Sacred Pillars, right?

If it's oneself, how lucky would that be!

Poseissi pursed her lips and said again, "However... for the two inheriting the positions of Sacred Pillars, I will send someone to notify later."

"Now, you all go back first!"

She did not announce the candidates for the Sacred Pillars right now to avoid others feeling too disappointed…

Naturally, no one dared to say more, they saluted with folded hands and then quickly turned and left…

At this moment, Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar immediately approached and cautiously asked, "High Priest, do you really already have suitable candidates in mind?"

If the decision is made just through one melee, it still seems rather one-sided!

Poseissi looked at him, "Why, Sea Dragon, do you think I'm acting too hastily?"

The former quickly denied, "No, you are the most qualified High Priest on Sea God's Island, and the most eligible to select the Seven Sacred Pillars!"

"It's just... I'm curious why you didn't announce it outright?"

"That way, you could also avoid criticism!"

Poseissi patiently explained, "Announcing it now might be too much for the others, and there might be abyssal creature attacks later on, so, it's necessary to maintain morale!"

As for the two people who were sent away earlier, they inherently had ill intentions, unsuitable for important roles!

Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar nodded, "I see, indeed, High Priest, you always consider the long-term!"

Poseissi's tone shifted as she addressed the rest of the Sacred Pillars, "However, do you all have any good candidates in mind?"

Everyone exchanged glances, shaking their heads repeatedly…

"High Priest, our discernment isn't as good as yours, during the recent melee, apart from seeing whose strength was stronger, we didn't notice anything else!"

"Yes, as long as the High Priest thinks they are good candidates, they definitely won't be bad, since we also became Sacred Pillars this way!"

"High Priest, you saying this must mean you already have someone in mind, so you don't need to worry about how we feel!"

Regarding the discernment of the High Priest, they were very confident, otherwise, how could they possibly have the chance to become Sacred Pillars!

Poseissi sighed, a bit amused and exasperated, "You guys…"

"Well, since you say so, I'll make the decision for the Sacred Pillars myself!"

Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar looked at the other Sacred Pillars and tentatively spoke, "Then High Priest, may we leave now?"

However, Poseissi interrupted, "Not so fast, besides selecting the Sacred Pillars, have you forgotten what day it is today?"

Everyone heard this and were a bit puzzled…

However, soon, they remembered…

Immediately after, they turned their gazes towards Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar…

The latter also instantly understood and covered his mouth to cough, "High Priest, maybe we should leave it for today? You must have spent a lot of effort on the Sacred Pillar business!"

"If you provide us guidance further, you might be too exhausted!"

Poseissi waved her hand, "Don't worry, in your eyes, am I that fragile as a High Priest?"

"How... how could that be, High Priest, you are the strongest on Sea God's Island, even all of us together are not your match, how could you be fragile!"
