However, this matter was unavoidable from being exposed.
After all, Youchao Shi and Ziyi Shi had specifically summoned the three thousand tribal chiefs, and they would definitely inform them about the matter of spreading the Heaven-Shielding Method.
The Elder Council soon officially began.
Suiren Shi stepped forward and said, "Esteemed elders, currently, within the Xuanyang Tribe, there is an unparalleled prodigy named Fang Ming, who has created a unique method – the Heaven-Shielding Method."
"This method has been tested by myself, Youchao Shi, and Ziyi Shi. It is entirely suitable for the Human Race, with fast cultivation speed and superior combat power, sufficient to replace the Golden Core Dao and become the sole cultivation technique for all humans."
"With such a great contribution, coupled with Fang Ming's personal capabilities and profound cultivation, he can perfectly grasp the future development direction of the Human Race and has a far-reaching vision."
"I believe that if Fang Ming becomes the Human Race's co-lord, our Human Race will inevitably march towards a brilliant future and escape the fate of becoming food for the demon race."
After Suiren Shi sat down, Youchao Shi and Ziyi Shi also came forward to announce their decisions.
They both strongly supported, and fully supported, Fang Ming becoming the Human Emperor.
"After Fang Ming created the Heaven-Shielding Method, he did not treat this technique as the exclusive property of the Xuanyang Tribe. Instead, he made it public, intending to spread it to all humans."
"This demonstrates his selfless character. With such noble character, he is entirely worthy of the position of Human Emperor," Youchao Shi said.
"Fang Ming's cultivation is already the strongest among humans, far surpassing the three Human Ancestors. Naturally, he can become the Human Emperor," Ziyi Shi stated, pointing out Fang Ming's cultivation.
After the three of them came forward to support him,
The entire hall erupted in discussions, with many secretly transmitting messages.
"Cultivation far surpasses the three Ancestors? Could it be that Fang Ming's cultivation has already reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal, or even the Quasi-Saint Great Divine Ability stage?"
"With such cultivation, it's no wonder Ancestor Ziyi supports him as the Human Emperor."
"I also believe Fang Ming can lead the Human Race to glory."
"But high cultivation doesn't decide everything... Can the Human Race really find someone who only knows how to fight and has no brains to be the Human Emperor?"
"Ancestor Suiren has already said that Fang Ming has a very far-reaching vision and is more suitable than him to grasp the future direction of the Human Race."
"There's no need to doubt this."
...
"What about his character? Can the Human Race really find a selfish person to be the Human Emperor?"
"Ancestor Ziyi said that Fang Ming's character is extremely noble, capable of sharing a cultivation technique he personally created with the entire Human Race."
"This is enough to prove his character."
"How can you guarantee that the Heaven-Shielding Method is good? What if it has hidden dangers?"
"Are you questioning the judgment of the three Ancestors?"
...
"The young chief of the Xuanyang Tribe, an ordinary young chief of a tribe, is directly parachuting in to become the Human Emperor."
"His authority will be above the three Ancestors, directly commanding the three thousand tribes and the Human Ancestral Land. This... I cannot accept."
"The three Human Ancestors think further and deeper than you. There must be a reason for him to be placed in this position."
"Talent comes first. What does his previous identity matter? You are being too superficial."
...
The crowd was in an uproar, with some supporting Fang Ming as Human Emperor and others not, feeling unable to accept it.
But when Suiren Shi asked if anyone had any objections,
The entire hall fell silent.
"If anyone has any objections, you can raise them directly," Suiren Shi said.
"The Elder Council is for discussion; it's not that the three of us decide everything."
Although Suiren Shi said this,
The tribal chiefs below did not raise any objections. Instead, they said:
"We have no objections."
"We pay homage to the Co-Lord of the Human Race, Fang Ming!"
The three thousand tribal chiefs paid homage to Fang Ming, outwardly acknowledging him as the Human Emperor.
The prestige of Suiren Shi, Youchao Shi, and Ziyi Shi, the three Human Ancestors, was too great. Many tribal chiefs dared not question their decisions face-to-face.
Moreover, most of the tribal chiefs also held a sense of reverence for the three Human Ancestors. Not just outwardly, but inwardly, they had been persuaded.
They believed that if the three Human Ancestors allowed Fang Ming to become the Human Emperor, it must be beneficial to the Human Race and would allow the Human Race to grow stronger.
Whether in their hearts or on the surface, they would not raise any objections.
However, there was a small portion of tribal chiefs and elders who felt that Fang Ming was parachuting in, having previously been the young chief of a small tribe, and felt unconvinced in their hearts.
Or they felt that the Human Race's reliance was on the Golden Core Dao, and it was through the Golden Core Dao that the Human Race could survive under the oppression of myriad races. Without the Golden Core Dao, they would have been annihilated long ago.
They were hostile to the Heaven-Shielding Method, and consequently, resistant to Fang Ming becoming the Human Emperor.
Or they simply felt that Fang Ming, such a young boy, had not yet grown up and was just a child. Could he be capable of fulfilling the role of Human Emperor?
They doubted Fang Ming's abilities.
This small portion of tribal chiefs and elders had various reasons for their dissatisfaction.
Their reasons were not uniform.
But outwardly, they did not stand up to oppose the decision of the three Human Ancestors.
The decision of the three Human Ancestors was not something they could oppose. If they stepped forward, they would inevitably be criticized by everyone.
Therefore, they could only reluctantly accept this outcome.
...
Fang Ming stood at the head of the hall, accepting everyone's homage.
At this point, Fang Ming knew in his heart that he was now the true Co-Lord of the Human Race, the Human Emperor.
Previously, when the three Human Ancestors acknowledged him, the system had already prompted Fang Ming to become the Human Emperor.
And at this moment, the three thousand tribal chiefs all paid homage to Fang Ming as the Human Emperor.
Fang Ming's identity as the Human Emperor was now known to all, spreading throughout the entire Human Race.
Even the Qi Luck Golden Dragon, the Qi Luck of the entire Human Race, had already revolved around Fang Ming.
With Qi Luck surrounding him, who dared to say Fang Ming was not the Human Emperor?
Even if some tribal chiefs opposed him in their hearts, it could not shake Fang Ming's position as Human Emperor.
Moreover, for most people, their inner resistance was only slight and not strong.
Fang Ming was already at the first level of the Quasi-Emperor realm. He could easily sense those tribal chiefs who had resistance and some objections in their hearts.
In reality, it was merely "some resistance."
This mild resistance might even lead to self-acceptance and a change of heart within two or three days.
This was not a big deal.
Fang Ming's focus was not on them, but on those humans with deeper resistance.
The Human Race had three thousand tribes, and many small tribes were led by a certain large tribe, relying on them.
The chief of a large tribe could usually gather many small tribal chiefs around them, consolidating the power of these small tribes.
There were as many as twenty-odd such large tribes.
Combined, they represented more than twenty forces within the Human Race.
Most of these twenty-odd forces had accepted Fang Ming in their hearts. A minority had some resistance, but it was not high and would naturally disappear over time.
Only a very small number, two forces, had strong resistance.
