Chapter 422 Wang Kun: Am I a stand-in?!
Afterwards, other candidates also took the stage to speak. Perhaps influenced by Li Tong, their speeches were also very brief, without too much elaboration.
After finishing his speech, Zhao Fangxu suggested that everyone could discuss matters related to the election. However, the meeting room fell into a strange silence. Everyone seemed to be waiting for something, but didn't know how to start.
At this moment, a clear female voice broke the silence: "Wang Kun, why do you inherit your father's position and become one of the Ten Lords? What are your qualifications?" The person who spoke was Guan Shihua. She had a straightforward personality and never beat around the bush.
Wang Kun's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in a cold voice: "Guan Shihua, what do you mean? My father was the previous Ten Lords, and it is only natural for me to inherit his position."
"As it should be? Humph, I don't think so." Guan Shihua sneered and continued, "The rule of the alien world is that strength is respected. You can't become a top ten leader by inheritance. If you don't have enough strength, how can you convince others?"
Guan Shihua nodded slightly, with a hint of approval in her eyes.
Wang Kun felt relieved when he saw this, and continued, "I think I meet all the conditions set by the company, and my father has also contributed to this place. I hope you will not be prejudiced against me because of my father's experience."
After saying this, Wang Kun secretly observed Guan Shihua's expression. He saw Guan Shihua frowning slightly, as if in deep thought. Wang Kun's heart tightened, thinking that something was wrong.
At this time, Li Tong suddenly spoke in a clear voice: "Brother Wang Kun, you claim to be the leader of a faction, but have you ever thought about whether you are really suitable for the position of the Ten Masters?"
Wang Kun was furious when he heard this. He didn't want to argue with Li Tong, but how could he keep silent when the other party provoked him like this? He sneered and said, "Brother Li is young and promising, so he naturally doesn't take us older generations seriously. However, the position of the Ten Lords is not a joke. How can you get this position just by being young and hot-tempered?"
Li Tong heard this and laughed instead of getting angry: "Brother Wang, you are wrong. Although young and inexperienced, you have a sharp spirit. To be one of the Ten Lords, you need someone who has both courage and wisdom. Although Brother Wang is older, he may not be qualified for this position."
Wang Kun was speechless after hearing what Li Tong said, and his anger grew even stronger. He pointed at Li Tong and angrily said, "How dare you...how dare you be so rude!"
Li Tong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother Wang, I am just telling the truth. If you really want to be one of the ten leaders, you need to show your real ability."
Wang Kun was so angry at Li Tong's words that his face turned blue. He wanted to continue arguing, but he saw Guan Shihua's face showing displeasure. He was startled and thought to himself that something was wrong.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall has become tense. Other candidates are also secretly observing the contest between the two, thinking about how to respond in their minds.
Wang Kun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He knew that this was not the time to argue with Li Tong and he had to calm down the storm as soon as possible. He bowed to Guan Shihua and said, "Senior, I lost my composure. Please forgive me."
"Wang Kun, if you dare to cause trouble, don't blame me, Li Tong, for being rude!" Li Tong's voice echoed in the conference hall like thunder, making everyone's eardrums buzz.
Wang Kun's face turned pale, he clenched his fists, his nails dug deep into his palms, but he managed not to get angry. He knew very well that this was not the time to confront Li Tong head-on, so he could only swallow his anger for the time being.
Seeing this, Li Tong's mouth curled up into a smug smile, as if he had seen Wang Kun's defeat. He turned around and sat back in his seat, continuing to watch the meeting process, as if everything just now was just an insignificant farce.
Seeing this, the other candidates chose to avoid it, unwilling to get involved in the dispute. They knew that Li Tong was not a person to be trifled with, and anyone who dared to be his enemy would pay a heavy price.
However, there was an exception among this group of people - that was Lu Ci, who was known for his madness. He looked at Li Tong's back, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Haha, Li Tong, you are indeed a madman who is not bound by worldly rules!" Lü Ci laughed and said, "I, Lü Ci, like people like you, who are unrestrained and dare to challenge everything!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the meeting hall. No one expected that Lu Ci would appreciate Li Tong, a troublemaker, so much.
However, Lu Ci's appreciation did not change his opinion of Wang Kun. He looked at Wang Kun with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
"Wang Kun, Wang Kun, I thought you could do something, but I didn't expect you to be such a vulnerable guy." Lu Ci shook his head and sighed, "You really disappoint me!"
Wang Kun felt a sharp pain in his heart when he heard this. He knew that he had indeed disappointed Lu Ci this time. However, he did not give up, as he knew that he still had a chance to prove himself.
"Everyone, please don't argue any more." Zhao Fangxu spoke slowly, his voice carrying a bit of majesty. "Today is just a discussion, and tomorrow is the day for the official vote. Why don't we first make peace and discuss the big plan together?"
When everyone heard this, they all restrained their expressions, but the fire in their eyes had not been extinguished. Zhao Fangxu knew very well that this fight was not a one-day effort, so he turned to look at the members of the Ten Lords present, hoping that they could express their opinions.
"Old Taoist Priest, you have not spoken so far. What is your opinion on this matter?" Zhao Fangxu asked respectfully.
Old Taoist Priest Zhang Zhiwei nodded slightly, with a gleam in his eyes. He was a man of few words, but every time he spoke, he always hit the nail on the head.
"I don't want to say much about these mundane matters, but since Mr. Zhao asked, I will say a few words." The old Taoist priest said slowly, "It is a blessing for our world of extraordinary people that young friend Li Tong is so promising at such a young age. If he can take on this important task, it will be a good thing."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the meeting hall. The old Taoist's opinion has always been very important, and he actually openly supported Li Tong, which was unexpected for everyone.
Seeing this, Lu Jin was overjoyed and quickly agreed, "What the old master said is absolutely right. We should promote the virtuous regardless of our relationship. Although our Lu family is weak, Ling Feng is a rare talent. I support him!"
Guan Shihua and Na Ruhu also expressed their support for Li Tong. For a time, Li Tong seemed to have become the favorite to win the championship.
Wang Kun sat aside, feeling mixed emotions. He originally thought that Li Tong was here to help him, but he didn't expect that he would become his competitor. He couldn't help but feel confused and uneasy.
"This...what's going on?" Wang Kun muttered to himself, his eyes full of confusion.
Seeing this, the other families also began to reassess the situation. They knew that this fight was no longer a simple family fight, but was related to the future of the entire alien world.
At this moment, Guan Shihua suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Since everyone has different opinions, why not let strength speak for itself? I suggest that Wang Kun and Li Tong have a duel, and whoever wins will take on this important task!"
As soon as these words came out, the venue was boiling again. A duel to determine the winner was undoubtedly the fairest and most direct way.
Wang Kun heard this and smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew the gap between him and Li Tong, and this duel was undoubtedly dangerous. He looked at Li Tong, and a hint of pleading flashed in his eyes. Wang Kun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He knew that Guan Shihua's seniority and status were not something he could easily offend. What's more, Guan Shihua was his father Wang Ai's "dream lover" when he was young. The entanglement between them made him dare not easily get angry.
"Senior Guan, I know that I am still inexperienced, but the company has its own rules for selecting the top ten. I, Wang Kun, believe that I meet all the requirements and dare not show favoritism due to personal feelings. As for my father's affairs, that was his personal fault and has nothing to do with me." Although Wang Kun's voice was calm, his words revealed an unquestionable firmness.
Guan Shihua sneered, obviously not satisfied with Wang Kun's answer. She turned to look at Li Tong, with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "Li Tong, you are young and promising, I am very optimistic about you. If you can be elected as one of the Ten Lords, you will definitely bring more benefits to people like us in the martial arts world."
Upon hearing this, Li Tong smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Senior Guan, for your kindness. However, I am a rookie with little experience, so I am afraid that I cannot take on this important task. On the contrary, Brother Wang, with his family background and rich experience, is more suitable to take on the position of the Ten Lords."
Wang Kun couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard this. He thought Li Tong was complimenting him, but he didn't expect Li Tong to change the subject and continue, "However, although Brother Wang is old, he may not be suitable to be the Ten Lords. After all, the position of the Ten Lords cannot be secured by age and qualifications alone."
Wang Kun's face changed, and he angrily said, "Li Tong, what do you mean by this? Do you think that you can look down on us seniors just because you are young and promising?"
Li Tong shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, you misunderstood. I just want to say that the position of the Ten Lords needs people who are capable and responsible. It's not like some people who rely on the protection of their parents to sit in this position."
The whole audience was in an uproar when these words came out. Wang Kun was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at Li Tong and angrily said, "You...how dare you humiliate me like this!"
"Li Tong, what's your attitude?" Wang Kun said angrily, his voice trembling a little.
Li Tong laughed as if he had heard a joke: "Attitude? I, Li Tong, never need to have a good attitude towards anyone. If you, Wang Kun, want money, then show some sincerity and stop pretending here."
Wang Kun was so angry at Li Tong's words that his face turned blue. He pointed at Li Tong with trembling fingers: "You...you are simply a lunatic!"
Li Tong shrugged nonchalantly: "Mad man? So what? At least I live a real life, unlike some people who only live their lives wearing masks."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a murmur around him. The other candidates exchanged glances, secretly glad that they had not offended this madman.
Lu Ci stood aside, looking at Li Tong, with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes. He always admired people who were not bound by worldly things, and felt that they were the ones who were truly alive.
"Wang Kun, look at yourself. Why are you competing with a lunatic?" Lu Ci walked up and patted Wang Kun on the shoulder. "Don't forget, I recommended you. Don't let me down."
Wang Kun felt bitter when he heard this. He knew that he was indeed far inferior to his father Wang Ai. But he was unwilling to be looked down upon by Lu Ci.
"Lu Ci, don't worry, I won't let you down." Wang Kun said gritting his teeth.
Li Tong looked at this scene and sneered in his heart. He knew that Lu Ci was warning him, but he didn't care. He, Li Tong, was never afraid of anyone, including this so-called introducer, Lu Ci.
However, in Li Tong's eyes, he did not take Lu Ci seriously.
"Lü Ci, you don't have to pretend to be a good person here." Li Tong sneered, "I know you look down on me, but I look down on you as well. People like you only live for profit and don't know what it means to truly live."
Huang Ning and Wang Kun are both popular candidates for this election. Huang Ning comes from a prominent family with great influence, while Wang Kun has made a name for himself in the world of extraordinary people with his extraordinary talents and courage. The contest between the two has long been the focus of everyone's attention.
"Hmph, Huang Ning, even though you come from a prominent family, you may not be able to win this election!!" Wang Kun sneered, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Huang Ning raised his eyebrows when he heard this and retorted: "Wang Kun, you are just a child of a noble family. What qualifications do you have to compete with me?"
The two of them were at loggerheads, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The audience around them also began to talk and speculate about who would be the final winner.
At this time, the host Zhao Fangxu stood up and said with a smile: "You two are both leaders in the alien world. Why are you so confrontational? Tomorrow is the official voting day. Why don't you sit down and have a good exchange today?"
As soon as Zhao Fangxu finished speaking, the old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei spoke up: "I don't know much about elections, but I think Li Tong is quite extraordinary. I am willing to lend him a helping hand."
The whole audience was shocked when these words came out. The old master had a very high status in the world of extraordinary people, and his support was undoubtedly the greatest help to Li Tong.
Seeing this, Lu Jin and others also expressed their support for Li Tong. For a time, Li Tong became the favorite to win.
Wang Kun looked at the situation in front of him and couldn't help feeling inexplicably confused.
He originally thought that Li Tong was here to help him in the election, but he didn't expect that he would become his stand-in.
Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"This...what's going on?" Wang Kun muttered to himself, his face full of confusion.
Seeing this, the other candidates did not immediately express their opinions and chose to wait and see. They needed to re-analyze the situation in order to make the most favorable decision for themselves.
At this moment, Guan Shihua suddenly stood up and proposed that Wang Kun and Li Tong have a competition to prove who is more suitable for the position.
"Good idea!" Everyone agreed, thinking that this was the fairest way.
Hearing this, Li Tong smiled slightly and said, "Since Senior Guan has made such a suggestion, I will respectfully obey your order."
Wang Kun had a hard time speaking out his feelings. He knew he was no match for Li Tong, but at this moment he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight. (End of this chapter)
