After the Family Head finished speaking, an Elder stepped forward. This Elder was clad in a deep green long robe, his face etched with the marks of time, yet his eyes remained as sharp as an eagle's.
He was one of the Xue Family's venerable elders, renowned for his fairness and strictness. He walked slowly to the center of the Competition Stage, standing beside the Family Head.
With a solemn gaze, he swept his eyes over the family members gathered in the square.
"Fellow family members," the Elder's voice was deep and powerful, laden with authority, "in today's crucial vote, we will ensure that every vote is fair and impartial. We shall not permit anyone to exploit this sacred election."
His words sparked a murmur among the crowd, and everyone felt convinced by his speech.
