477 Dispute (1/2)

”I object!”

Yama Minamiya stood up with a loud shout. He looked at the middle-aged woman with tightly puckered lips. His expression was stern and fuming anger was hidden within his glaring eyes.

The seated upper echelons of the various organizations immediately cast cold gazes of animosity at him. The middle-aged woman narrowed her eyes as viciousness flashed in her eyes. Zhang Meng was the most direct. With an angry stare, he slammed the table and produced a deafening 'bang'. It caused the meeting desk to tremble.

”A trash like you is objecting again!”

The boor, Zhang Meng, was not a person who followed etiquette. He only believed that Yama Minamiya was a person who clung on obstinately to his demands. He yearned to throw a powerful punch at him.

If not for Yama Minamiya's only objecting vote in the previous meetings which caused the meeting to end unceremoniously, there was no reason for Chairman Jiang to drag the matter this far.

The seven major organizations had protested in unison, while most first-rate and second-rate organizations had expressed their objections. The media and public had overwhelmingly leaned toward a side. Changing the rules of the selection should have been taken for granted.

Yama Minamiya was only a Division Minister from a second-rate organization. His hero license was only C-class. His strength had only barely entered the Psionic Might Realm. What right did he have to object to everyone's objections?

If this were any ordinary period, Zhang Meng would have smashed Yama Minamiya flat. However, in the meeting, all they could rely on was the bite of their tongues. It was a competition of eloquence. Strangely, Yama Minamiya was an odd person. He was impervious to hard and soft tactics. He did not succumb to a show of force, so it made Zhang Meng, who was accustomed to speaking with his fist, to fail miserably.

However, this was already the final meeting. Everyone had decided on losing all decorum. They no longer cared about Chairman Jiang, so Zhang Meng was obviously unfazed.

However, Yama Minamiya did not even spare Zhang Meng a glance. He stared straight at the middle-aged woman and said in a deep voice, ”Madam Chen, forgive me for disagreeing with what you said! They already possess the strength to defeat rookie representatives from Zeus; therefore, they are not as weak as you describe them to be.”

”Instead, they are much stronger than a majority of rookies. However, you had deliberately avoided mentioning such a matter. Aren't you being too sinister with your intentions? Furthermore, Wen Hezheng and Kevin both reached the sixth level. They were not weaker than An Mo and Zhou Chuchu. It's not impossible that their scores are ranked ninth and tenth.”

”What right do you have to deny the results of their hard work? I admit, they might come from Gaia which isn't a famous first-rate organization, but it does not deny them of their talent and potential. You categorically mention that the hero organizations place fairness at the forefront. Is robbing the future of two children who worked hard for it through biased discussion considered fair? Such fairness is something I have never ever heard of! I'll absolutely not agree to it!”

Yama Minamiya minced his words as though he was stirring the deaf and enlightening the blind.

The middle-aged woman's expression turned increasingly ugly. She said coldly, ”It is understandable that Division Minister Minamiya is biased towards the rookies from his organization, but isn't such perverse logic complete disregard for every one of us present here? In the fourth level's duel grounds, Zhu Yuanyuan and Huang Peng had indeed been defeated.”

”However, the reason for their defeat was because of an accidental drain of their stamina during the third level. That duel was not fair in any way. How can it be used as a comparison? If they were to battle under normal circumstances, Wen Hezheng and Kevin have no chance of victory! Furthermore, from what I know, the reason why Wen Hezheng and Kevin were able to reach the sixth level was due to Shi Xiaobai's protection.”
