Chapter 4192: The inner sect grand competition
Translator: 549690339
“As for the newcomers who have successfully reached the foundation establishment stage, although you are qualified to participate in the newcomer’s competition, you don’t have to be happy too early.” “According to the rules of each year, each of the three pavilions will only accept five new disciples,” Hu Yunfeng continued in a clear voice.”Therefore, you must compete with each other. Only by competing for the top five places in the upcoming newcomer’s competition can you become an official outer disciple of the three pavilions!”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the rookies present were in an uproar. This year, there were very few people like Cha Wu who had not even reached the foundation establishment stage yet, but Hu Yun Feng’s words touched upon the vital interests of most of them!
Looking at the three great pavilions, there were at least twelve new disciples who had successfully reached the foundation building stage in each Pavilion. However, there were only five spots for official outer sect disciples. The intensity of the competition was obvious.
It would be gratifying for the stronger ones to be able to get into the top five, but what if they ended up in luosun mountain? He couldn’t possibly follow trash like Cha Wu and go to the spiritual Jade Hall to mine ores, right? that would be too much of a scam!
Fortunately, Hu Yunfeng quickly answered their doubts,””The new disciples who don’t get into the top five can continue to stay in the welcoming new pavilion and take up some positions. They can wait for the opportunity to be promoted in the future.”
The position in the welcoming new pavilion that Hu Yun Feng was referring to was the position of the steward senior brother. If one could become the steward senior brother, although it was not as direct as becoming an official outer sect disciple, it was still a good future.
However, the position of a manager was a matter of luck. It wasn’t always empty, and most people who stayed would just take on a normal manager’s position, similar to Kang Zhaoming’s new manager position, or even worse. They could only help Hu Yunfeng and the others, without much power.
After hearing this, the rookies heaved a sigh of relief. As long as they were not sent to Kuangqu, it was still acceptable. They would not end up too miserable.
“Alright, everything that needs to be explained has been explained. Next, let’s get to the main topic. The rookie competition will begin immediately!” Hu Yunfeng immediately announced,”the rules of this year’s great rookie competition are that there are no rules. The elders of the three pavilions will be the judges. All the new disciples will draw lots and fight until the top five are decided!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Yunfeng immediately gestured to the senior stewards of the three pavilions to arrange for all the disciples to draw lots.
This was a matter of their future, and all the newbies were in high spirits as they went to their respective senior managers to draw lots. However, when it was Lin Yi’s turn, Hu Yunfeng suddenly spoke up.
“Lin Yi, you’re an early golden core practitioner now. According to the rules, you can skip the outer disciple rank and become an inner core disciple. So, you don’t need to participate in this year’s new disciple competition.” Hu Yunfeng said lightly.
Everyone was taken aback, but it made sense after thinking about it. The other newbies didn’t even have the courage to face a monster like Lin Yi, let alone attack him. What was the point of him participating in the newbie competition?
However, to be able to cross over to become an official outer sect disciple and directly become an inner sect core disciple, this kind of treatment made everyone envious.
In the entire three pavilions, more than 90% of the official outer sect disciples could only stop at this level for the rest of their lives. They could only look up to the inner sect but not reach it.
This was something that couldn’t be helped. To become an inner core disciple, the minimum requirement was to successfully form the gold core, and this was enough to keep most people out.
“May I ask, Pavilion master Hu, does this mean that I have nothing to do with this year’s rookie competition?” Lin Yi asked.
“That’s right. However, there is also a year-end examination for the core inner disciples of the three pavilions. It will start in two days. Although you don’t need to participate in the new disciples “competition, you have to participate in the year-end inner disciples” competition. This is a special case that the higher-ups of the elders Council have set up for you,” Hu Yunfeng said lightly, a hint of playfulness on his face.
This arrangement was actually Xu lingchong’s doing. His grandfather Xu Yuanzheng personally suggested it at the elder Council to embarrass Lin Yi!
To be able to become a core disciple of one of the three pavilions, each and every one of them was an elite among the elites. Lin Yi may be impressive outside, but he was only a new early golden core stage master. Compared to these old golden core stage Masters, there was a big gap.
This year’s inner disciples “year-end competition was the perfect opportunity to put him in his place!
Lin Yi was surprised as well-he could smell a conspiracy in the air, but since this was the official’s arrangement, he couldn’t say anything. He nodded and stood to the side as an audience.
The news quickly reached Shangguan LAN ‘er’s ears. Although this little Senior Sister was innocent and naive, she was not stupid at all. She immediately went to find Shangguan Tianhua, asking him to help.
“Grandpa, it’s really strange. Little Junior Brother is actually arranged to participate in the year-end inner disciple competition. This is not fair at all! You’re still in the mood to practice writing here, why don’t you come out and do something about it!” Shangguan LAN ‘er shook Shangguan Tianhua’s arm as she pouted angrily.
“Hehe, what’s so unfair about that? Lin Yi’s already an early golden core, and he killed su Zhaohe in one move in the last fight. Even some of the core inner disciples aren’t that strong. If he doesn’t participate in the inner sect competition, is he going to participate in the new disciples competition? Xiao LAN ‘er, do you think that’s fair to the other newcomers?” Shangguan Tianhua laughed nonchalantly.
Shangguan LAN ‘er was speechless. After a long while, she said unwillingly,””But, Little Junior Brother is still a newcomer. We can’t be so against him just because he’s good, right?”
“LAN ‘er, although Lin Yi is being targeted, he’s also getting the status of an inner core disciple. It’s not a loss for him, right? Besides, in this old man’s opinion, it’s hard to come across a good opponent. Instead of wasting time in the welcoming new pavilion, it’s better to have a good fight with these core disciples. He probably can’t even dream of getting this opportunity!” Shangguan Tianhua said with a smile as he continued to write.
“But … But even if you don’t participate in the inner sect competition, you’ll still become a core disciple. This can’t be counted as a reward …” Shangguan LAN ‘er still felt bad for Lin Yi.
“Hehe, since LAN ‘er said so, it seems like we have to give Lin Yi some real benefits.” Shangguan Tianhua shook his head helplessly, then smiled and said,””How about this, if Lin Yi can shine in this year’s inner sect competition and get a good ranking, I’ll guarantee him the position of the 3rd Pavilion master. That should be fine, right?” (Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone.

Chapter 1934: A strange question
Xinyan’s scent was good for his practitioning, and he didn’t want to waste this opportunity. He wouldn’t have this chance again when he got back to school.
They were sleeping together in the living quarters, and there were other people around-it was considered a group activity, but Lin Yi and Xinyan were in the same tent right now, and the atmosphere was a little awkward …
However, this scene gave Lin Yi a familiar feeling. It was also in the tent, with a beautiful and gentle girl. Lin Yi seemed to have experienced a similar scene before … Was it ning? Lin Yi shook his head-they were in a cave, not a tent.
However, deep in his memory, it seemed as if today’s incident had happened before. Could it be in his previous life? Or was he dreaming? Or perhaps he was fated to be with Wang Xinyan?
If it was the latter, it was possible. They were indeed fated to be together. They had sat together several times, and now they were even in the same bed. How many coincidences could there be in life?
“You … Are you asleep?” Xinyan’s words interrupted Lin Yi’s thoughts, pulling him back to reality.
“No, why?” Lin Yi asked.
“I’m a little scared, it’s so quiet here …” Xinyan only realized how quiet it was when she entered the tent-she’d been surrounded by her classmates and soldiers patrolling the area, but it’d never been this quiet before.
“You’ll get used to it. This mountain is a Dead Mountain. There are no wild beasts here, but it’s also safe. ” “Some of the mountains aren’t quiet, but it’s scarier when it’s night time,” Lin Yi said.
Lin Yi was speaking the truth-the nights in the tropical forest were the scariest. Not only did they have to be on guard against enemies, but they also had to be on guard against all sorts of wild animals and poisonous insects. Here, however, there was no danger to speak of.
“Yeah, can you talk to me?” Xinyan was tired, but she wasn’t too tired after the nap. She remembered that Lin Yi wasn’t asleep yet, so she apologized,”Ah, you’ve not taken a rest yet. How about taking a rest first? don’t worry about me …”
“I’m a cultivator, it’s fine even if I don’t sleep. ” Lin Yi shook his head with a smile.
“Lin Yi, what do you think life is after?” Xinyan had been lost for a long time-she didn’t know the meaning of life. Was she just a sacrifice for her family?
“Everyone’s pursuit is different. I can’t say for sure. ” Lin Yi didn’t understand why Xinyan would ask something so profound.
“Then what is your pursuit?” Xinyan regretted it a little after asking. “I’m sorry, I was just asking. If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t …”
“Once … A long time ago, I asked myself what my goals and pursuits were, but I was very lost back then. I didn’t know what I was pursuing or what my goals were … The things I did every day seemed to be things I didn’t like, but I had to do them …” Lin Yi said,””At that time, I really didn’t know what I was pursuing. I didn’t know if I would live my life in such a muddled state …”
“Oh? What happened after that?” Xinyan was a little surprised-so Lin Yi’s life had been like this before.
“Then, then I came to Songshan. Here, I had my own love, my own friends. I thought, protecting them, making them live a better life, that was my pursuit and goal.” “The only way to do this is to keep getting stronger,” Lin Yi said.
“I see … I’m a little envious of you then …” Xinyan smiled bitterly.”I don’t have many friends … Since I was young, and I’ve never had feelings for any boy. I don’t know what true love is, and I don’t have any friends who are particularly close to me …”
“Oh, I’m not your friend?” Lin Yi asked with a smile.
“You … Of course I am, I think I’ve found you. I’ve said a lot of things in front of you, things that I’ve never done before …” Wang Xinyan smiled.”However, you don’t need my protection. Instead, you need to protect me …”
“Between friends, of course it’s to help each other. There’s no rule that says who has to protect who, right?” Lin Yi said.
“En … But, is there really a pure friendship between a boy and a girl?” Wang Xinyan suddenly asked.
“Ah?” Lin Yi blinked at Xinyan’s question. He was just about to say that they were, after all. However, he shook his head in his heart. Pure? He’d have thoughts when he saw Xinyan naked, and he’d have a reaction when he felt the softness of her chest-was that pure?
Lin Yi couldn’t help but have a reaction when he smelled Xinyan’s scent, but it was dark in the tent-they could only see each other’s faces faintly even with the moonlight.
Xinyan’s expression was a little weird as she looked at Lin Yi’s stunned face. She turned to the side, wanting to talk to Lin Yi more comfortably, but she pressed on something hard. “Eh?” she asked subconsciously.”You brought ham sausage?”
But after he finished speaking, he immediately realized that something was wrong and knew what he was grabbing. His face suddenly turned red and he quickly let go of his hand. He turned around and snorted,”As expected, you didn ‘t. Pervert!”
“That’s a normal reaction …” Lin Yi smiled bitterly, helpless,””Who asked us to be so close to each other, and you smell so good …”
Xinyan’s face reddened even more at the mention of her scent, “I’m tired, I fell asleep. ”
“…” Lin Yi was speechless. He shook his head, calmed himself down, and started circulating the second stage of the art of Dragon mastery …
Xinyan waited for a while, and felt a little apologetic when Lin Yi didn’t say anything. She’d learned about biology before, and she knew that this was a normal reaction from Lin Yi-he didn’t do it on purpose. It’d be a problem if he didn’t have any reaction, but she didn’t want to apologize, and she fell asleep just like that …
Xinyan woke up after midnight-she’d drunk too much water earlier, and she was having a reaction. She wanted to go to the bathroom herself, but it was dark outside the tent, and she was scared. She hesitated for a bit before reaching out to touch Lin Yi.”Lin Yi …” She said.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Yi opened his eyes and asked.
Lin Yi opened his eyes all of a sudden, and he didn’t look sleepy at all. Xinyan jumped at the sight.”You … You’re not sleeping?”
