Chapter 279: The Tenth Sage!
In the conference room of the Supreme Commanders’ Department, tensions were running high in the Conference of Sages jointly convened by Sage Kang and Sage Yuanyi.
The Nine Sages all cast their projections to participate in this Conference of Sages, and everyone’s expression was very solemn.
“Sage Kang, why did you hold the Conference of Sages with Sage Yuanyi?”
“For the matter regarding Lin Feng reported by the military, of course.”
Sage Kang glanced at the other eight Sages slightly, then said in a solemn tone, “Lin Feng from the academic faction is currently the Legate of Central Sea City. He was involved in the military operation because his brother, Lin Hai, participated in the military’s Wall Breaker Operation. He resolved the calamity triggered by the military with unstoppable force.”
“Two Sages of the military faction, do you have anything to correct?”
The two Sages of the military faction were Sage Zhou Tianqi and Sage Palman. Both of them shook their heads. They evidently had a clear idea about this matter. After all, the Five-star Generals of the military would definitely prioritize reporting to the two Sages of the military faction.
“Sage Kang, you’re right. It was originally a calamity that was induced by the military. Fortunately, Lin Feng intervened and resolved this calamity.” Sage Zhou Tianqi said.
“Everyone should have already learned about the news from the military. Lin Feng already possesses the combat power of a Sage! Moreover, he controls a robot which also has the combat power of a Sage. Hence, I propose to promote Lin Feng to the tenth Sage of humanity!”
As soon as Sage Kang finished speaking, many Sages present appeared very surprised.

It was true that Lin Feng had the combat power of a Sage, but there was no need to be in such a hurry, right? Back when they had undergone four life transitions, it also took a period of time for them to be ranked as Sages.
At this moment, Sage Batai from the consortium faction said worriedly, “Sage Kang, there’s no need to rush things, right? Never mind whether Lin Feng has the combat power of a Sage, even if he does, we still need to verify it. Moreover, the Nine Sages have all undergone four life transitions before we can be ranked as Sages. Lin Feng has only undergone two life transitions, so it’s a little inappropriate for him to be ranked as a Sage.”
In reality, Sage Batai’s words also represented the opinions of some other Sages.
“I think so too. We have to verify it first, then discuss whether we should let Lin Feng, who has undergone a second life transition, become a Sage. After all, the position of Sage is very important. It’s the pillar of humanity. We can’t be rash.”
The one who spoke was Sage Claus from the government faction. Although Sage Kang was also a Sage from the government faction, the two Sages actually had different opinions on some matters.
“What do we need to verify? Could those videos and information be fake? If any Sage disagrees, they can spar with Lin Feng. Heh, what’s so special about the title of Sage? Strength is the most important thing! I agree to make Lin Feng the tenth Sage!”
The Invincible Fist Sage spoke directly. He was straightforward and did not mince his words. Moreover, Lin Feng was a student of the Myriad Academy and had joined the academic faction. Once he became the tenth Sage, he would definitely be a Sage of the academic faction.
That way, the academic faction would have four Sages, and could steadily become the number one faction among the five major factions.
Moreover, he liked Lin Feng very much. He had watched Lin Feng grow almost the whole way. Even the appointment as the Legate of Central Sea was personally decided by the Invincible Fist Sage.
Although it was a little incredible that Lin Feng had the combat power of a Sage after his second life transition, the Invincible Fist Sage knew that it was possible for some ancient civilization legacies to accomplish this.
Be it for public or personal reasons, the Invincible Fist Sage would support Lin Feng!
“I also don’t think we should stick so rigidly to rules and regulations. When we became Sages back then, there weren’t so many rules and regulations, either. Now is a critical time for humanity. The nine of us cannot spare any time. Having one more Sage will alleviate our burden. Why not? I also agree to Lin Feng becoming the tenth Sage.”
Immediately after, Sage Bingyu and Sage Claus also expressed agreement. The Sages of the three major academies had always stuck together. There was no reason for them not to support Lin Feng.
Sage Kang waved his hand, and an image appeared on the projector. It was the battle between Lin Feng and the giant destructive robot.
“Everyone, this is Lin Feng’s battle scene. Do you think Lin Feng has the combat power of a Sage? This has been confirmed by various analyses by the military. There shouldn’t be any problems. We can skip the step of verification.”
Indeed, looking at Lin Feng’s battle scene, even the Nine Sages had solemn expressions. In fact, they were not certain they could win against that destructive robot.
However, there was no doubt that it was definitely at the level of a demon emperor, and demon emperors corresponded to the combat power of Sages!
“If we can confirm that Lin Feng’s combat strength is on par with a Sage, then there’s only one last point of debate left. Can Lin Feng be ranked as a Sage in his second life transition?”
All the Sages nodded. Indeed, this was very important. The standard had to be established. After all, Sages controlled the authority of human society and had access to many resources. Every Sage had an extremely powerful faction behind them.
If the standard was not established, it might be very troublesome for new Sages that emerged in the future, and the human society would be in chaos.
“Back when I established the Supreme Commander’s Department, I actually wanted to centralize power and the resources of all humanity to reduce internal consumption. After all, we humans do not actually have the advantage in the vast world. In terms of numbers, we humans are far inferior to those dire beasts. In terms of top-notch combat power, those demon emperors are not inferior to us, either. There might even be terrifying entities that surpass demon emperors. We humans have no advantage here.
“Our only advantage is unity! With the Nine Sages, we can unite all humans! Later, a second Sage and a third appeared, and eventually, the number of Sages even gradually reached nine. The Supreme Commanders’ Department gradually became an organization controlled by the Nine Sages.
“Once there are more people, there will naturally be debates and demands for benefits. It’s all normal. However, as the pillars of humanity, the strongest martial artists should prioritize the greater picture! What are Sages? It’s just a title. If you address four life transitions as Sage, why isn’t it possible to address two life transitions as Sage? As long as he has the strength, why can’t he have the authority?
“If Lin Feng has the strength of a Sage, but can’t obtain the corresponding authority, what would he think? If someone like Lin Feng emerges in the future, what will they think? Wouldn’t this impede the path of advancement for martial artists?
“This kind of ostracism must never happen! Otherwise, what’s the difference between us and those feudal dynasties in ancient times? The path of advancement must be unimpeded. As long as one has the strength of a Sage, they are a Sage, and should wield the corresponding authority!”
Sage Kang’s heartfelt words moved all the Sages.
The first Sage of humanity, Sage Kang, was known as The Pioneer. Although he was not the strongest of the Nine Sages, he was the most respected Sage. He was also a Sage who was completely dedicated to humanity!
Sage Kang’s words were actually a little blunt. They were a wake-up call to the other Sages!
The Nine Sages had held the highest authority over humanity for too long, so long that many took it for granted, and began to think of ways to exclude other martial artists from this highest authority.
Lin Feng’s matter was a touchstone. Sage Kang was also determined to use this matter to “warn” all the Sages.
“That’s right. Elder Kang is right. We’ve been in power for too long. There are some things that shouldn’t be stopped anymore. I agree to appoint Lin Feng as the tenth Sage immediately, and the five major factions will announce it to all of humanity promptly!”
Sage Yuanyi spoke. He did not usually speak, but he was very influential among Sages as well. His strength could even be ranked in the top three among Sages.
“The usual rules, then. Let’s raise our hands for a vote.”
Sage Kang glanced at the other eight Sages and said calmly.
“I concur.”
“I concur.”
“Concurred.”
Sage Kang was the first to raise his hand in concurrence. Then, Sage Yuanyi, the Invincible Fist Sage, Sage Cass, and Sage Bingyu all concurred.
Then, Sage Zhou Tianqi and Sage Parman from the military faction slowly raised their hands in concurrence.

With seven Sages already in agreement, Sage Batai from the consortium faction and Sage Claus from the government faction looked at each other, and could only raise their hands in the end.
All Nine Sages concurred!
At the Conference of Sages, the Nine Sages’ decision was immediately sent to the five major factions. There was only one message.
Congratulations on the birth of the tenth Sage of humanity—Sage Lin Feng!
