Chapter 486: Chapter 340: Breakthrough_1

Regarding Che Yucheng’s proposal, Chen Mobai promptly shook his head in refusal.

“Teacher, although I have achieved some accomplishment in Sword Dao, I prefer Puppet Dao at heart. I’d rather not switch to the Sword Control Department.”

The fact is, Chen Mobai understood where his proficiency in “Sword Rainbow Fission” and “Sword Light Shapeshifting” came from.

Compared to Zha Jianbai, he was but a hollow Sword Cultivation Genius. Being around Zuo Gong, the Jiedan Sword Cultivator, for prolonged periods might give him away. It was best to keep him at arm’s length.

“Alright then, it was just a suggestion.”

Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s rejection, a relieved expression appeared on Che Yucheng’s face.

This disciple was so outstanding that he found it somewhat disconcerting .

If he was genuinely impeded in Puppet Lines, he would feel somewhat remorseful.

After Chen Mobai took his leave, he went to the Student Council.

Under the looming gaze of Hua Zijing, he forced a smile and settled some matters that necessarily required his presence or signature.

“Alright, I can only accompany you till here. The rest is up to you.”

After wrapping up all the business of the year, Hua Zijing stretched lazily and announced her resignation.

Currently, they were in the conference room, and most of the Student Council members were present.

“You’ve worked hard these past two years.”

After receiving the documents, Chen Mobai expressed his gratitude to Hua Zijing deeply. Without her help as the Vice President and Secretary-General, he would have been a complete mess at first.

“Those were just my due duties.”

Hua Zijing waved her hand, then picked up the white cat lounging on the conference table, entering relaxation mode.

This semester would end in two more months.

After Chen Mobai became president, of the three vice presidents, Shen Youren had graduated last year.

He was replaced by Ying Sizhen from the Alchemy Department, who was now in charge of liaising with the departments of Alchemy and Spiritual Plants. He was doing quite well.

After Hua Zijing’s resignation, only Ming Yu remained of the three Vice Presidents initially left behind by Zuo Qiushi. However, he was in ninth grade this year and would likely have to step down at this time next year.

“After Zijing graduates, let Zhuang Jialan take over the secretariat. As for the Vice President, how about Lu Tiansuan?”

Chen Mobai knocked on the table and announced the nominations they had previously discussed.

Hua Zijing was Vice President and concurrently Secretary-General. Zhuang Jialan’s tenure was not enough, promoting her directly to Vice President would make folks in Daoist Academy talk. They would think she had nepotism going for her.

Lu Tiansuan was the first Student Council member Chen Mobai had known. Like Ming Yu, he would graduate next year.

He was experienced enough, and while his communication skills were lacking, he was a practical person.

Most of the Student Council members voted in favor of him as the third Vice President.

Thus, at this meeting, the new Student Council team was formed.

However, this team could only hold for a year.

Thinking that he wouldn’t graduate for another three years, Chen Mobai felt that he needed to recruit more people.

[Brothers and sisters, the Student Council is recruiting this year. If anyone is interested, as your president, I guarantee full benefits.]

In the chat group of the Metaphysical Class, Chen Mobai started to draw in the people he was closest with in the Daoist Academy.

[Brother, wait for me. I’ll join as soon as I’m back at the end of the year.]

The first to respond was naturally Ming Yuhua. He spent the whole year outside with Daoist Academy’s main crew refining large-scale magical instruments, but the end was finally in sight. The project would be completed soon.

[What benefits are there?]

The chat group immediately came alive as Chen Mobai used the same words he had used to cajole Zhuang Jialan, and soon three people expressed their interest in joining the course.

Gong Ranran, Li Zimo, and Fan Yuanpu were the ones who responded.

After their Foundation Establishment, they found that their credits were not sufficient, and were worried about this issue. Given that legal credit benefits could be obtained from the Student Council, they agreed readily.

Yunyang Bing approached Chen Mobai privately and explained that he intended to start traveling around with his teacher to various Immortal Gates from next year, exploring the great landscapes while completing the mapping of a specific area, so he would not join the Student Council anymore.

Chen Mobai understood this. Apart from Yunyang Bing, Jin Shuwei was also an Array Department student, who had also received the task of mapping. Both of them had to follow their mentors off-campus for practical courses.

The three major faculties in Dance Tool Dao Academy, Array, Artifact Refining, Alchemy, all emphasized practical work and encouraged their studies to be applied, so they all had courses similar to internships.

However, if one truly wanted to improve, participating in such activities was necessary. Isolation was not advisable.

Aside from these people, Lan Yufan and Lu Zixuan had also successfully completed their Foundation Establishment.

However, since their breakup, they had never spoken in the group again.

Just as Chen Mobai was about to stop messaging, Lan Yufan suddenly asked him privately: [Is Lu Zixuan joining the Student Council?]

[No? What’s up, do you want to avoid her?]

Chen Mobai was an intuitive person and immediately guessed Lan Yufan’s thoughts when he saw her message.

[Yes, if she doesn’t join, I’ll hang out in the Student Council.]

[Okay, I will post the membership application form in the group later, you can download it, fill it, and send it directly to the Student Council’s email.]

Now Chen Mobai just wanted as many council members as possible, so that they could share the bulk of the work that had fallen on him after Hua Zijing’s graduation.
