Class Chairman

A week passed in a flash, and the academy elder came in the class with an interesting test:

"In the world of Gu, there is nothing as absolute as cultivation. Even if you are talented, it is extremely difficult to fight against Gu Masters with higher cultivation. You are the future of the Gu Yue Clan, which is why the position of the class chairman will be decided based on your cultivation speed"

The students all started to feel excited...

[Class Chairman]

Surely, it was a title with a lot of privileges. Of course, many unknowingly stared at Mo Bei's figure. Everyone knew that he had a considerable advantage, be it talent or support from his family. Mo Chen was one of the strongest elder of the Gu Yue Clan, and everyone knew that Mo Bei had been chosen as his successor already.

Others still looked at Fang Zheng, who possessed higher grade talent. Many thought that Mo Bei was stronger, but would still be lacking in terms of cultivation speed.

"What is the position of class chairman?", Tang Shi, the cute girl with short black hair sitting next to Mo Bei and one of his closest friend, asked

She knew that Mo Bei had his chances, and she wanted to know what he would get from this. If she was lucky, she might benefit slightly from this too. The academy was a system that taught students how to behave. The geopolitics in the academy were real sources of drama.

The elder nodded: "Sharp question. The position of class chairman is of essential importance. They relay issues that teachers must learn about. However, if the guards and teachers solve everything, then you will never learn how to be autonomous. This is why the class chairman is the one who will keep order in the class, especially if there are trouble makers"

The elder stared at Luo Ping, a sturdy clansman who had repeatedly beaten down weaker students, exorting primeval stones like Fang Yuan in the book, albeit on a smaller scale. Of course, since he had broken no rules, the teachers and guards closed their eyes on the matter.

"In addition to these new responsibilities, the class chairman will earn 10 primeval stones a week, instead of just 3. He will also appoint two vice-chairmen, who will get 5 primeval stones a week, instead of 3. The conditions to earn this title are simple: You must break through the middle stage! I expect it will take a few weeks for the most talented, and a few months for the least talented. However, never forget to cultivate daily, even if you have no talent. If you don't cultivate, you don't grow your strength and you might be stuck forever at your rank. Many clansmen fell into this trap of oisivety!"

Mo Bei, however, revealed his green copper essence to the elder: "Then, as the new class chairman, I appoint Shi Feng and Tang Shi as the vice-chairmen. Anyone who has a problem can come look for me. Luo Ping has already shown that you can steal from others, just like animals prey on the weak. This is the way of the world. If you want to survive, you need to grow. If you give me one primeval stone a week, a fair share, you can use my name to protect yourself. Those who do not pay the protection fee will not be penalized, but you might be exorted anytime"

The elder was flabbergasted.

It was as if...Mo Bei had predicted that he would announce a reward for the breakthrough, and prepared his speech! He had even come up with a system that would grant him a significant amount of primeval stones!

However, he could not deny that his way of doing things was very smart. He was not overly greedy, yet he was very strong, as he had shown with his mastery of the Moonlight Gu Practice

Immediately, many clansmen approached Mo Bei to give him one primeval stone. Some decided to keep it for themselves, but everyone knew how this would end up.

The Elder nodded at the scene: "So be it. Mo Bei, Shi Feng and Tang Shi, follow me. You are to give me a weekly report on the classes. If you have suggestions of training or lessons, you are free to speak out your mind. However, can you tell me how you managed to cultivate so fast? Even Fang Zheng, who has higher talent, is still far from a breakthrough"

Fang Zheng and Chi Chen were flabbergasted.

They worked so hard...but before they could even attempt to complete the test, Mo Bei had already finished it, winning on the spot.

However, they both felt insanely jealous upon hearing Mo Bei: "It turns out I have gotten myself a Liquor Worm. Not only does it double my cultivation speed, breaking through is relatively easy. It is a pity that it can only be used in the first rank, though"

The Elder nodded. With Mo Bei's resources, talent and liquor worm, then breaking through so fast was only natural.

'It seems like the heavens dote on this child', the elder laughed inwardly, 'But this is a good thing. He will become a core elder in the future, I can sense it. He has the cunning and talent to become one, after all...'
