The Three Sects, Nine Clans, and Twenty-Seven Branches had been maintained for hundreds of years, and the names had not changed much.
In these hundreds of years, some forces had risen, while others had declined.
For example, Wooden Sword Castle, one of the original Nine Clans, had wanted to attend the Yin-Yang school's Worship Ceremony, but it was difficult to pay for the travel expenses.
Some forces were not part of the Three Sects, Nine Clans, and Twenty-Seven Branches, but they were very powerful.
For example, the Divine Weapons Villa and Cloud Sky City were not part of the Three Sects, Nine Clans, and Twenty-Seven Branches.
In the Tiandō League's list of forces, other than the Three Sects, Nine Clans, and Twenty-Seven Branches, there were more than ten major forces. Sometimes there were more than forty, and sometimes there were more than fifty.
There were a total of fifty-three forces on the Tiandō League's list.
However, other than these fifty-three forces, there were many subsidiary forces that also belonged to the Tiandō League.
For example, the Autumn Water Sword Sect was a subsidiary force of the Northwest Qin City, but it was still considered a member of the Tiandō League.
These subsidiary forces were not vassals. They were basically independent, or at least semi-independent.
Each of them had a territory that ranged from a hundred to a thousand miles.
There were more than a thousand subsidiary forces like these!
After Yang Dingtian came to this world, the Tiandō League had held two large-scale meetings.
Fortunately, both of them were against Yang Dingtian!
The first meeting was to expel Cloud Sky City from the Tiandō League and punish Yang Dingtian for his crimes against Dongfang Bingling.
The second meeting was to punish Yang Dingtian for establishing the Council of Light to split the Tiandō League and for the Central Continent to form an army to suppress the western world!
The third meeting, Yang Dingtian was still the main character of the Tiandō League!
However, this time, he was definitely the main character.
Moreover, this Tiandō League was completely different from the previous two meetings!
For the first and second Tiandō League meetings, only the first-tier Tiandō League members participated. More than a thousand subsidiary forces did not participate.
Why?
Because Yang Dingtian had set up the Central Committee, this was still an internal affair of the Tiandō League.
The Tiandō League's general meeting would only be held during the war against the Evil ways. All the members of the thousand plus affiliated factions would also participate!
Therefore, this meeting was the real meeting!
This was the first time in two hundred years since the Doomsday War!
…
The Tiandō League will be held on the first floor of the Zhongjing Grand Hall!
This was a ring-shaped hall. The Three Great Sects sat at the highest position in the center of the hall.
The leaders of the Nine Clans were seated in the first row of the great hall. The nine seats surrounded the three central Clans!
The twenty-seven sects were in the second row. They formed a circle around the nine sects.
Next were the other forces and their subsidiary forces.
One circle after another, one circle after another.
There were a total of 1539 seats, filling up the entire hall.
It was the exact opposite of the cinema. The main hall here was the highest in the middle, and the further one went, the lower it would be.
Therefore, the three central Clans' seats were at least ten meters higher than the outermost seats.
Especially the Hidden Sect's seat in the middle. It was three meters higher than the Yin-Yang school and Black Heaven Sect.
Therefore, sitting in the center of the great hall gave one the feeling of being at the top of the world.
This should be the center of power of this world!
Billions of people, tens of millions of soldiers, and the rulers of millions of martial artists were all in this great hall.
This was the first time Yang Dingtian sat on the highest seat in the center of the great hall!
Dongfang Minmie sat on the left, and Zhuo Qingchi sat on the right!
Dongfang Minmie stood up and said slowly, "The Tiandō League's biggest meeting has officially begun. Leader of the Hidden Sect, please give the highest order!"
Yang Dingtian stood up and scanned the entire hall!
This was the highest position in this world. It was more powerful than the ancient China emperor and the United Nations.
The territory of this world was many times larger than that of Earth.
Yang Dingtian was forced and pushed to this position!
When he sat down or stood up from his seat, he was a little excited, but he didn't feel too satisfied with what he was doing.
He also did not feel like he was in control of the world.
This was because he knew clearly that with his current strength, he was not qualified to sit in this position.
When his strength was not compatible with the seat he was sitting on, he would feel his butt burning when he sat on it!
However, Yang Dingtian had no other choice.
It was Xu Wupiao, his master, Yang Dingtian, Qin Wanchou, and even Zhu Qingzhu. They were the ones who pushed or helped Yang Dingtian, who was a fugitive from the Yin Yang Sect, to reach this position. They were the ones who allowed him, a mere five-star ninth-grade Grandmaster, to sit in this position!
…
Yang Dingtian noticed that the Vulture Sect had also sent someone to sit on the left side of Northwest Qin City. However, Wulingzi was not here. Only Lingxi was here!
"Before we start, let me say a few words." Yang Dingtian said, "I feel that the position of this hall is not good!
The middle is high and the sides are low!
This way, I and the three sects can be high above.
However, this way, I can't see many people in the back seats, and many people can't see me either.
If we can't see each other in this kind of situation, there might be a problem!
Therefore, in the future, I still suggest that the middle seat is low and the sides are high.
This way, both sides can see each other clearly! "
Yang Dingtian's words won the favor of most people, but also the disdain of some people.
The disdainful people thought that he indeed felt that he was not qualified to sit in this position.
Little did they know that Yang Dingtian was really talking about the matter. This kind of arrangement was really inconvenient.
Basically, Yang Dingtian could not see the people in the back rows.
"Alright, now that the small talk is over, let's talk business." Yang Dingtian said slowly, "The first thing, I believe everyone knows!
The Demon King Wentian is about to be resurrected!
Evil Demon Prince Li Ming, Queen Devil Queen, and Princess Mu Dan, these three peak Evil ways, are going all out to revive the Demon King!
The day Wentian revives is the day the World Extermination Army comes back! "
When these words were said, the expressions of the more than a thousand people changed slightly, but they were not too shocked.
Of course, they were not too shocked because this was the World Extermination War that happened every 200 years!
It was the same every time. Now, it was time. Although it was scary, it was not surprising!
"Therefore, the first thing is to prepare for war!"
"Now, I will announce the first Tiandō League order. All members of the Tiandō League in the Primal Chaos Mainland, all 1539 forces in a territory of 200,000 miles, enter Level 1 War Readiness!"
"All members of the Tiandō League are to stop expansion, conflict, and war!
Stop all disputes!
Train the army, reorganize the armaments, and prepare for the upcoming World Extermination War! "
"Now, let's vote by a show of hands!"
"Members of the three sects, let's vote. Raise your hands in agreement. Those who oppose, stand up. Those who remain silent, abstain!"
When these words were said, the representatives of the three sects all raised their hands in agreement.
"Members of the nine sects, let's vote. Raise your hands in agreement. Those who oppose, stand up. Those who remain silent, abstain!"
When these words were said, almost everyone's gaze turned towards the Vulture Sect.
Currently, the nine sects, Qin City, World Society, Cloud Sky Pavilion, and Earth Splitting City were all in the hands of Yang Dingtian.
The other five sects also followed the lead of the Black Sky Sect and Yin-Yang school!
Only the Vulture Sect was an exception.
Unfortunately, the Vulture Sect was currently the strongest faction in the world.
Only the Crepuscular Sea could contend with it. Unfortunately, the Crepuscular Sea had become the Vulture Sect's absolute ally and in-law.
Therefore, the Vulture Sect's attitude was crucial!
As expected, eight of the nine sects raised their hands. Only the Vulture Sect's Ling Xi remained seated!
As the host, Dongfang Minmie said calmly, "Vulture Palace, are you abstaining?"
Ling Xi smiled and slowly raised his hand. "No, I agree!"
Then, he slowly raised his hand!
There was no such thing as absolute democracy in any place or plane.
The martial arts civilization of the Primal Chaos Continent had some democratic genes, but that was only part of it.
When it came to the internal voting of the Tiandō League, five sects had a veto vote.
These five sects were the three sects, the Vulture Palace, and the Northwest Qin City.
As long as one of the sects vetoed any matter, the resolution would not pass.
However, when it came to a matter of life and death like the Doomsday War, there was not much democracy.
This vote was basically just a show of attitude.
In fact, when it came to such matters, the leader of the Hidden Sect had the supreme power.
Once the leader of the Hidden Sect gave the order to start the war or enter Level 1 War Readiness, this matter would be passed directly. Any objections would be invalid!
However, Yang Dingtian currently didn't have enough prestige and strength. He couldn't make the decision with a single word. Therefore, a large-scale vote was required.
Even so, once the three sects all agreed, no one could overturn the situation!
Now that the three sects and the nine sects had all agreed, the next vote was just a formality!
As expected!
"The 27 sects will vote. Raise your hands in agreement. Oppose, stand up. Silently abstain!"
Almost immediately, the 27 sects all raised their hands to vote.
Of course, some of the 27 sects had already been destroyed, such as the White Cloud City!
Therefore, that position would be empty!
As for who would fill it, that would be discussed later.
"The remaining first-tier members of the Tiandō League, vote!"
"Swish, swish, swish!" Everyone raised their hands in agreement.
"Second-tier members of the Tiandō League, vote!"
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish …" More than a thousand people raised their hands at the same time. The scene was spectacular!
The first Tiandō League order was officially passed!
The chaotic world entered Level 1 War Readiness. All forces were to stop all disputes, conflicts, and expansion. All forces were to reorganize and prepare for the World Ending War!
Yang Dingtian: "Now, I announce the second Tiandō League order!
The Tiandō League's Council of Light is officially reorganized as the highest authority during wartime!
During the period of war readiness and war, the Council of Light has the highest authority over the military forces and resources of any Tiandō League member!
This includes commanding, mobilizing, adjusting, executing and other military forces! "
Once this was said, many people's expressions changed!
Although there was no mention of the internal affairs of the various forces, the Council of Light had the highest authority over military forces and military resources!
Military resources covered a wide range. Territory, money, crystals, etc. It covered almost everything.
Of course, these military resources did not include martial arts secret manuals and mystic skill secret manuals!
Previously, the Council of Light wanted to get the Cloud Sky Pavilion's crystal power and the Divine Weapons Mountain Villa's small crystal crossbows, but they couldn't get their hands on them.
And with this order, the other party had to hand them over unconditionally.
Of course, the Cloud Sky Pavilion and the Divine Weapons Mountain Villa had already voluntarily handed them over.
Of course, the Council of Light had actually signed a secret agreement with the Divine Weapons Mountain Villa and the Cloud Sky Pavilion!
Once the World Ending War ended, the Cloud Sky Pavilion had the right to withdraw all members of the secret technique of the crystal power and let the Cloud Sky Pavilion still have exclusive control over the crystal power.
Moreover, all the members of the Council of Light who were in charge of the crystal power were from the Cloud Sky Pavilion.
This project was also completely completed by the Cloud Sky Pavilion alone!
"The three major sects of the world, let's begin the voting. Raise your hands in agreement, stand up in opposition, or silently abstain!"
Without a doubt, the three sects all raised their hands in agreement.
Then, everyone's gaze fell on the representative of the Vulture Palace.
Because once they raised their hands in agreement, it meant that the Council of Light had the right to mobilize the Vulture Palace's Black Vulture Army!
Of course, this was only on paper!
Now, if the Council of Light wanted to mobilize the Vulture Palace's Black Vulture Army, it was purely wishful thinking!
This time, everyone did not have to wait for long. The Vulture Palace's Ling Xi was the first to raise her hand in agreement.
Then, the nine sects all raised their hands in agreement.
Next, the 27 sects all raised their hands in agreement.
Finally, more than 1,000 people all raised their hands in agreement!
There was no other way!
Since the three sects and nine sects had all agreed, no one dared to disagree.
Not to mention the affiliated sects, even if the members of the 27 sects dared to abstain or object!
Then the Tiandō League would teach them how to behave in a matter of minutes!
Because this was the highest will of the Tiandō League!
…
After the voting ended!
Dongfang Minmie and Zhuo Qingchi immediately drafted the two highest orders of the Tiandō League on the special energy jade!
Written with special Celestial Chi energy, it would never be destroyed, could not be forged, and would be preserved forever!
The two great grandmasters engraved the Heavenly Law Union's orders on the one-square-meter piece of jade, one word at a time.
Dongfang Minmie wrote the first order, and Zhuo Qingchi wrote the second order!
Then, Dongfang Minmie was the first to sign with special Celestial Chi energy, and Zhuo Qingchi was the second!
The reason why Yang Dingtian did not sign was because the leader of the Hidden Sect needed to be the last to sign, and his name had to be written above all the members!
Next, it was the nine sects' turn to sign.
These two pieces of jade were passed down one by one.
Every sect's representative had to use special Celestial Chi energy to sign the name of the sect they belonged to.
Yes, it was the sect, not their own name.
Because this person might die, but the sect would usually last forever!
And these few thousand Recovery Jades would record everything from the beginning to the end!
A full four hours later!
More than 1,000 people present had all signed their names!
Then, these two pieces of jade were passed to Yang Dingtian!
He wanted to write his name on all the signatures, and then these two highest orders would take effect and have the highest authority!
From then on, the Chaotic Mainland would enter a new era!
Yang Dingtian put his fingers together and released his unique Chaotic Celestial Chi, and was about to sign on the jade!
"Hold on!" Someone spoke, and then someone walked in slowly!
Yang Dingtian pursed his lips. He had been waiting for this voice for a few hours!
…
Note: The reason why it was sometimes called the Vulture Sect and sometimes the Vulture Palace was because the Vulture Palace announced that it had changed its name to the Vulture Sect.
But in an official Tiandō League meeting, it was still the Vulture Palace!
The first update has been delivered, and I will continue with the second update!
