Chapter 201: Establishment of Class Committee! (Part 1) 

In the first-grade classroom, after the class leader selection competition ended, all the students returned from the Great Martial Arts Arena.

Shen Yi and Wu Zhangkong were the last to enter the classroom. The two walked up to the podium, with Shen Yi taking the lead as usual. She looked at the various expressions of the students below and said, "After the battle just now, the candidates for class leader have emerged. Jing Shaoyu, Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, you three are the final winners. The position of class leader will be decided by the three of you."

Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue immediately looked at Jing Shaoyu, and then both said in unison, "I choose Jing Shaoyu (Little Yu Ge)!"

Their words did not surprise Shen Yi; in fact, she felt delighted because this was the result she had hoped for. She smiled and said, "Alright, since that's the case, Jing Shaoyu will be the class leader of our first-grade class. Jing Shaoyu, please stand up and formally introduce yourself to the students."

Jing Shaoyu stood up, turned around, and with a warm and gentle expression on his handsome face, he said, "Hello, classmates, I am Jing Shaoyu, a level 45 Healing system Soul Grandmaster. I hope everyone will support and cooperate with my work in the future. Thank you!"

Upon hearing Jing Shaoyu's self-introduction, the students all showed expressions of surprise and disbelief, with many exclaiming loudly.

"Level 45?! Is that for real?"

"Is he really level 45? I can't tell!"

"Yeah, yeah, during the competition just now, it felt like he hardly did anything. I couldn't see his strength at all."

"Are you stupid? Didn't he say he's a Healing system Soul Grandmaster? The other three were dominating the whole time; he didn't need to intervene!"

"A level 45 Soul Grandmaster! The class leader is not only handsome but also so talented. I'm in love!"

"Ha! I advise you to stop daydreaming. The class leader won't look at you. A genius like him belongs to me! Hahaha!"

"…"

The classroom became chaotic, with all sorts of comments flying around. Overall, there were two attitudes: one doubting the authenticity of Jing Shaoyu's strength, and the other mostly infatuated remarks, which were not worth mentioning.

"Silence!" Shen Yi said sternly.

The students' voices immediately ceased, and everyone obediently closed their mouths, not daring to make another sound.

"The position of class leader is set. If anyone has objections, you can apply to challenge Jing Shaoyu. As long as you can defeat Jing Shaoyu, then you will be the new class leader," Shen Yi said. "Shrek Academy has always advocated that the capable rise and the incompetent fall, so student Soul Duels are allowed. However, there is a prerequisite: you must not take advantage of others' misfortunes, nor use despicable means to cheat. Once confirmed, the academy will revoke your Martial Soul!"

Shen Yi's last sentence was filled with a chilling aura, causing the students in the classroom to involuntarily shrink their necks, but many still had excitement and fighting spirit in their eyes.

"Teacher, I have a question!" a boy shouted, raising his hand. It was Zhang Long, who was next to Xu Yu Cheng.

"Speak," Shen Yi said.

"Jing Shaoyu said he is a Healing system Soul Master. If we challenge him, will he personally participate, or will someone else take his place? If someone else takes his place, then does that mean the class leader position will also be taken by someone else?" Zhang Long stood up and asked. His question was somewhat tricky, but it was also something most people were concerned about.

"If it's a single-person Soul Duel, then the class leader must participate personally, even if they are a support or healing system Soul Master," Shen Yi replied. "If it's a multi-person Soul Duel, then the class leader can choose companions to face the challenge with him. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Zhang Long said excitedly, gesturing towards Xu Yu Cheng and Zhao Hu.

"Sit down," Shen Yi said. "Does anyone else have questions?"

No one answered. Most of the students seemed to be deep in thought, perhaps contemplating Zhang Long's earlier question or reflecting on Shen Yi's response. In any case, Jing Shaoyu clearly felt that many more eyes were now on him, and he could only smile, feeling indifferent.

"Alright, next are the candidates for the two vice class leaders. Xu Xiaoyan, Gu Yue." Shen Yi began the second appointment, calling out Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue's names. "The two vice class leaders for the first grade will be you two. Please stand up and introduce yourselves to everyone."

The selection of the vice class leaders was actually expected by everyone, as Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan's performances were well recognized.

Xu Xiaoyan stood up and said with a sweet smile, "I am Xu Xiaoyan, a level 37 Control system War Soul Venerable."

Level 37, this was Xu Xiaoyan's current soul power, which had increased by two levels compared to half a month ago. The reason was simple: Soul Bone. She had fused with the family heirloom, the Star Blessing Skull, which raised her soul power by two levels and significantly enhanced her mental strength.

Gu Yue, with a cold expression, said, "Gu Yue, a level 38 Assault system War Soul Venerable."

Hearing the self-introductions of the two girls, even though the students were mentally prepared, they were still shocked. One was level 37, and the other was level 38; both were high-level Soul Venerables, and it was possible for them to become Soul Grandmasters before the second year!

Zheng Yiran, Yang Nianxia, Xu Yu Cheng, Luo Guixing, Mo Hentian, and Wu Siduo, the six renowned genius students, were even more astonished. From now on, they never mentioned the genius student ranking again, for the reason was simple: they couldn't afford to lose face.

"The position of vice class leader is the same as that of the class leader. If anyone thinks they are more suitable to be a vice class leader, they can challenge either of the two," Shen Yi added.

The students were silent, but their eyes sparkled with ambition; there were always those who considered themselves exceptional.

"Finally, we will conduct the selection for the four major committee members: Mecha Design, Mecha Manufacturing, Mecha Repair, and Forging." Shen Yi said with a faint smile, "Students who wish to become committee members and have a secondary profession level above two can recommend themselves. Let's start with Mecha Designer. Students who want to run for the design committee, please stand up."

As her voice fell, some stood up, then others, until about ten students were standing. Seeing these ten, Shen Yi's gaze shifted to Gu Yue in the front row.

Yes, Gu Yue also stood up; she wanted to take on the role of design committee member.

"Gu Yue, I remember you are a level 4 Mecha Designer, right?" Shen Yi said with a smile in her eyes.

"Yes," Gu Yue nodded.

Upon hearing that Gu Yue was actually a level 4 Mecha Designer, the other students who intended to compete for the design committee showed ugly expressions, and three or four of them with poor attitudes directly gave up and sat back down.

"What about you?" Shen Yi, although favoring Gu Yue, did not want to ignore the thoughts of other students. She asked, "Zheng Yiran, what is your designer level?"

"Level 3," Zheng Yiran replied somewhat helplessly. She felt something was off when Gu Yue stood up, and she didn't expect that this girl not only had a higher cultivation level but also a stronger secondary profession. This was too demoralizing!

"What about the others? Is there anyone who has reached level 4?" Shen Yi looked around and asked.

No one answered.

"Since that's the case, then the design committee will be led by Gu Yue," Shen Yi announced with a smile, then began the next item. "Next, we have the manufacturing committee. Those interested, please stand up."

The competition for the manufacturing committee was clearly more intense, with fifteen students standing up, including some strong contenders like Luo Guixing, Xu Yu Cheng, and of course, Xu Xiaoyan.

Jing Shaoyu wore a faint smile, not knowing what these two girls were planning.

"Xu Xiaoyan is a level 4 Mecha Manufacturer. Is there anyone else whose Mecha Manufacturer level exceeds level 4?" Shen Yi asked directly after seeing Xu Xiaoyan.

Xu Yu Cheng and Luo Guixing widened their eyes in disbelief, and then a sense of defeat appeared on their faces. They couldn't believe they had been defeated again! And by the same person, no less. This was too humiliating!

Both of them simultaneously gave up their candidacy for the manufacturing committee and sat back down.

Seeing this, the others also sat down, leaving Xu Xiaoyan standing alone in the classroom.

"Alright, the manufacturing committee will be led by Xu Xiaoyan," Shen Yi nodded. "Next, we have the repair committee."

This time, all eyes turned to Jing Shaoyu in the middle of the front row. Shen Yi was also looking at him, but Jing Shaoyu remained calm and unperturbed, showing no intention of standing up. He was a man of his word; if he said he wouldn't take on the role, then he wouldn't.

Seeing that Jing Shaoyu truly had no intention of taking the repair committee position, Shen Yi felt somewhat helpless but couldn't force him. She could only look at the other students and ask, "Is there no one?"

Someone stood up, and upon seeing this person, Shen Yi immediately asked, "Wu Siduo, what is your Repairer level?"

"Level 4," Wu Siduo coldly replied with two clear words.

"Level 4 Repairer, not bad!" Shen Yi immediately smiled and said, "Then the repair committee will be led by you."

Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan both looked at Jing Shaoyu, their eyes filled with confusion and discontent.

Jing Shaoyu could only smile broadly; he really wanted to explain that he simply did not want to be the repair committee member!
