Chapter 778 The Senate Of The Divine Consorts



The 3 divine consorts Sun Dingjun, Ding Jie’Er, Dongfang Xin had to excuse themselves from the tavern first as they did not know how long the treatment would going to last for Ji Yuan and it was now getting late.

It was also because they had something important to discuss with their nobles first before making the announcement to make Ji Yuan their city-state first male spiritas hero as well as the title of a divine lord. 

For that, even Divine Consort Tang Manni had to excuse herself first. 

All 4 of them would make an appearance at the senate tomorrow to table their case and of course, they would also welcome Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei to the senate from tomorrow onward. 

The society of the divine consorts are completely different from the authoritarian society of the celestials. 

In their society, the divine consorts are the ultimate law-givers in their city-states and any maiden that could advance to a divine consort would become the new law-giver of their city-states and their alliances. 

Any city-states that did not have a divine consort, which are actually quite common would ally with an existing alliance with a divine consort. 

But even city-states with their own divine consorts may also ally with another city-state or even multiple city-states to form an alliance.

The city-state of the Snowy Pavilion itself controls 20 smaller city-states that are without a divine consort and it has a significant territory in the fertile crescent plains of the Peloponnesian Great Continent, one of the five great continents in the Spirit Divine Realm. 

And the city-state of the Snowy Pavilion is also 1 of the 12 major city states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad in the vast fertile crescent plains of the Peloponnesian Great Continent.

The distances between the major city-states are actually quite vast and it would take a long time to travel through by foot and the best recommendation for transportation would be on the flying spirit mounts instead.

The rebels have hideouts in about 100 of the city-states in the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad, mostly in the major city-states and its surrounding city-states. Although it sounds a lot but it was actually not since the entire Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad had about 800 city-states altogether.

Now there are four noble ranks for the spiritas; Divine Consort, Spirit Consort, Fairy Concubine and Spirit Concubine. 

Other than the divine consorts, the other 3 noble ranks are able to vote in the senate. 

The lowest of the spiritas noble the Spirit Concubine has 1 vote.

The second noble rank of the Fairy Concubines has 10 votes.

The third noble rank of the Spirit Consort has 100 votes.

In order to lead a city-state, the law-givers which are the divine consorts will try to garner as many votes as possible from the spiritas nobles that are following them.

That is the reason why the weaker divine consorts like Sun Dingjun and Ding Jie’Er have formed their own alliance against the other 2 powerful divine consorts. 

A weak divine consort like Ding Jie’Er has very little female spiritas nobles under her and they are often the lowest ranking nobles. 

In order to pass a new law, a divine consort must gather 80% of the votes, which is an extremely difficult thing especially if the city-state have several divine consorts fighting for supremacy. 

And under the sacred laws of their Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina, a self-governing city-state must have at least 3 divine consorts or else it would have to join an alliance. 

Naturally this rule did not apply to the Ancient First Divine Consort who rules all the city-states and she also happened to be the first divine consort. 

But this rule is meant for the future city-states to prevent them from degenerating into in-fighting when the numbers of divine consorts have increased in the future as compared to the rule of the divine lords who were always waging wars on the city-state of one another. 

The dissolution and the new formation of alliances are allowed in the new era of the divine consorts as long as there are at least 3 divine consorts in a major city-state. 

The fertile crescent plains of the Peloponnesian Great Continent was the birthplace of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina and therefore, there are more divine consorts than anywhere else.

In fact, there are 36 other divine consorts in the other 11 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

The irony is that the other regions have city-states that are tens of times more city-states than the city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

This is actually the main reason why there is an alliance of the 12 major city-states in the first place, to combat the bigger size of the more numerous city-states. 

Although the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad looks powerful with its numerous divine consorts but there were some other city-states that have no less than 40 divine consorts and they have formed their super city-states into an empire. 

In fact, there are 3 spiritas empires in the Spirit Divine Realm that have their own Empress Consort after getting more than 80% of the popular vote. 

But the focus would be this part of the region in the Spirit Divine Realm.

And tomorrow will be a different thing in the senate. 

It is because for the very first time, all 5 divine consorts will be voting for a male great spiritas hero and he is Ji Yuan. 

Not only that, they will also be voting for their very first divine lord too. But this vote will be very tricky. First, they have to pass their own senate first in their own city-state and then they can table it to the council of senates which consisted of the rest of the 11 major city-states that formed the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.

It is because a divine lord is a noble title and it is also a male title. 

Moreover, Ji Yuan is a celestial and is not a true spiritas. 

And a divine lord is a male title that has not been used since the time of the Ancient First Divine Consort Ai Tina. 

But for the 5 divine consorts, they did not care for the opposition and decided to press ahead even though they may not get the 80% of the vote.

As for appointing a hero, this is their own city-state affair and they did not need to table it to the council of senates. 

But nevertheless, the 5 divine consorts were happy today because tomorrow they would make Ji Yuan into a Great Spiritas Hero.

And they had already made sure that the news of Ji Yuan’s heroism in killing an immortal divine lord had already spread throughout the city-state and even to the other city-states.
