Chapter 4194: The unexpected host
Translator: 549690339
The welcome Pavilion’s freshmen competition had come to an end. However, the North Island arena’s inner disciples ‘year-end competition had just begun.
All the inner core disciples from the three pavilions were present, but what surprised Lin Yi was that not all of the hundred golden core practitioners were dressed as inner disciples. Some of them were dressed as outer disciples, but they were all golden core practitioners.
Lin Yi only realized now that the competition wasn’t only limited to the core disciples. Even outer disciples could fight if they were strong enough.
If one’s strength and performance were outstanding, they might be chosen by some Big Shot and taken in as an in-name disciple. From then on, they would have a meteoric rise. There were many precedents of this.
To the inner disciples, the inner sect competition was just as important. It was an assessment for them by the three pavilions. Their performance would directly affect the allocation of cultivation resources for the next year. They could not afford to underestimate it.
Finally, this year’s inner sect grand competition officially began. According to the previous years “practice, the person who presided over the inner sect grand competition was a senior member of the elder Council. And this year, the one who appeared was surprisingly Xu lingchong’s grandfather, Xu Yuanzheng.
“The rules of this year’s inner sect competition are very simple. It’s the arena duels. It’s similar to the previous years. This year’s arena duels are divided into two categories, one against one and two against two!” Xu Yuan is currently looking around at all the Jindan stage disciples present, and loudly announces: “I’m sure all of you can understand this. After all, after entering the inner sect, it’s no longer just a test of individual strength, but also a test of teamwork!”
Upon hearing this, everyone on the grandstand started to discuss among themselves. At the same time, they all nodded their heads. After entering the inner sect and becoming core disciples, they would often have to go out to carry out high-level missions. Regardless of the difficulty or danger, they were all extremely high and often needed to work in a team to complete them.
No matter how powerful a person was, if he didn’t know how to cooperate with others, he would still be useless.
“Regardless of whether it’s a one-on-one or a two-on-two, only the top fifty will be able to obtain the corresponding Battle Points. The first place will get fifty points, and the second place will get forty-nine points. The points will be reduced in this order, and the sum of the two results will be your final result for this year’s inner sect competition! Even if you won’t be directly eliminated from the inner sect, you won’t get any preferential treatment in terms of cultivation resources for the next year. ” Xu Yuan says indifferently while looking at everyone.
When the inner sect disciples on the stands heard this, their expressions became serious. At the Golden core stage, it was much more difficult to make progress than at the Foundation Stage. Without the assistance of a large number of cultivation resources, no matter how hard they worked, it would be difficult to make any progress even after decades of closed-door cultivation.
If they really fell out of the top 50, it meant that they could only get the most basic cultivation resources. It would be good enough if they could guarantee that they would not fall behind. As for going higher, they could forget about it.
“Alright, that’s all the rules. You can go back and prepare. I’ll give you five days to choose your teammates. The competition will officially begin in five days.” As Xu Yuan finished speaking, his eyes paused in Lin Yi’s direction for a moment before he turned around and left the stage with a playful look.
There were nearly a hundred golden core inner sect core disciples present, including some outer sect disciples who came to challenge Lin Yi. Most of them had friends and acquaintances, and they were all sitting together in groups of two or three. Only Lin Yi was alone, with no one around him.
At this point, Lin Yi realized the problem himself-he finally understood why he was called to the inner sect competition. It was most likely lingchong’s doing-his grandfather was the person in charge of the competition, and he could easily pull some strings. What a sinister person!
With Lin Yi’s strength and confidence, even if he had just reached the early golden core stage, he wouldn’t be afraid of a one on one fight with these core disciples. But the problem was, there was still a two on two fight. What was he supposed to do?
There were close to a hundred people here, and other than Xu lingchong, Meng Tong, and Nan Tianba-his archenemies-Lin Yi didn’t even know a single person, let alone an acquaintance. Who was he supposed to find to form a team?
Even with the Halo of the newcomer King, he was still a newcomer after all. His strength was at the bottom of the pool. Moreover, the people present were not familiar with him at all, let alone cooperation and tacit understanding.
Even if some people found him pleasing to the eye, the problem was that if he rashly formed a team with a rookie who didn’t know anything, what if he became cannon fodder? this wasn’t a joke. The risk was too great!
But if he couldn’t find anyone to form a team, he could still participate in the team competition, and he’d have to face a 1v2 then. Unless these inner disciples took some benefits and went easy on him, he had no chance of winning.
Even if Lin Yi was the strongest golden core, he’d only just entered the Golden core stage. If he was in the mid-stage, he might have a chance, but he was in the early-stage! He’d lose for sure!
Xu lingchong and Meng Tong smiled at each other as they saw Lin Yi frowning and speechless from afar. Lin Yi had really fallen into their trap this time.
“Hehe, chongchong, you’ve really given him a big problem this time. I’ve known this guy for a year, but I’ve never seen him in such a troubled state. I’ve really learned something today.” Meng Tong gloated.
“Brother Meng, this is just a small punishment. It’s just an appetizer. There will be many more opportunities in the future. I’ll make him feel like he’s in heaven!” Xu lingchong’s mouth twitched with a vicious expression.
“It’s best if we can draw him directly this time, then we can take revenge!” Meng Tong coldly nodded.
Ever since his personality changed, Meng Tong didn’t act like he was grinding his teeth at Lin Yi, but that didn’t mean his hatred was gone. On the contrary, every time he felt his heart break, his hatred for Lin Yi deepened!
He did not show it in the past because he knew that he did not have the strength. But now that he had Xu lingchong, the situation was completely different.
He was also an early golden core Master now, and while he might not have a 100% chance of winning against Lin Yi in a one-on-one fight, killing Lin Yi would be a piece of cake with the addition of an intermediate golden core Xu lingchong-he was already thirsty for more!
“Although my grandfather is the person in charge of the inner sect competition, the drawing of lots is supervised by the elders. It’s extremely difficult to tamper with it, and it’ll still be up to luck to get Lin Yi.” Xu lingchong shook her head and said with a serious expression, “It’ll be great if we can get it, but if we can ‘t, we can’t lose the big picture because of the small. This year’s inner sect competition is the key. As long as we can shine, with my grandfather’s help, it’s not impossible for us to get the position of the second senior brother in charge of the inner sect!” (To be continued.) ”
Chapter 1936: Chapter 1934-inquiry
“That shouldn’t be the case. I’ve already asked around. East Ocean industry University’s military training is happening these few days. The border troops are using the mountain as a field training ground. It’s impossible for them to be patrolling the mountain at this time.” Bald Wolf said with a frown.
The military training of East Ocean industry University was no secret. Bald Wolf didn’t need to ask around to get the exact information, and it was absolutely true.
“Could there be students doing field training nearby?” Autedi asked.
“That’s impossible. We’ve been doing this for years. We know the range of our annual field training. It’s too far from here. It’s impossible for students to make a round trip in two days. Those students aren’t us. How can they travel so far?” Bald Wolf shook his head and said,”maybe I heard it wrong. There are owls nearby, and their cries are similar to the one just now. If the border guards come, it will be a gunshot. Do you think we can still stand here and talk?”
“You’re right!” Seeing that there were no strange or strange sounds for a long time, autey nodded, but at that moment, the cry came again …
The sound came from Lin Yi’s mouth, mimicking the sound of an owl.
“F * ck, it’s really an owl. I was scared to death!” Ou te di also heard it clearly this time. He couldn’t help but shake his head and say,”No matter what, let’s hurry up and make the deal!”
“The goods are here, you can check them.” The bald Wolf placed a black leather suitcase in front of autedi.
“Oh … Here you go. This is the money. You can also check it.” Autedi casually handed bald Wolf a box.
The two of them had been working together for a long time, so they weren’t too guarded at this time. They checked the things in the boxes and found that there were no problems, so they closed the boxes.
Lin Yi saw the contents of the boxes-one was drugs, and the other was US dollars.
Lin Yi wasn’t interested in the drugs, but he was interested in the US dollar bills. He did get two billion from Jianwen, but fatty Lai was building a company, so Lin Yi didn’t have much to spend. This suitcase of US dollars could help relieve some of Lin Yi’s financial pressure.
Most importantly, Lin Yi suddenly thought of Yu Xiaoke at the orphanage. She should be in need of money, right?
At that thought, Lin Yi was ready for a double-take, whispering into Xinyan’s ear.”There are two bad guys. Stay here and don’t move. Wait for me to deal with them.”
Xinyan wasn’t scared anymore, she only nodded shyly.
Lin Yi only just remembered that he was still covering Xinyan’s mouth. He quickly let go and walked towards the two drug dealers.
However, the two drug dealers were still talking about something after the deal.
“I say, brother bald Wolf, why is the stock getting less and less recently? We’re short on supplies. Can we increase the supply?” Autedi asked as he weighed the suitcase in his hand.
“This … Our original business partner, house Yu, is in trouble. Without the support of house Yu’s Masters, our power in the Golden Triangle is declining.” Bald Wolf sighed.”I’ve already spoken to the boss. I’ve asked him to coordinate with the higher-ups to see if they can send a few cultivators to take charge. That way, we can regain our right to speak.”
“Okay, this is your gang’s internal affairs. I can’t interfere. I’ll go first. I don’t feel at ease staying at the border for another minute.” Autedi nodded and prepared to leave.
The bald Wolf took the money and was about to leave. However, before the two of them could take a step, they groaned and fell to the ground.
Lin Yi could knock out normal people who weren’t even practitioners without making a sound.
Lin Yi didn’t kill anyone. Although killing these two people would be as easy as turning his hand over, Lin Yi still wanted to ask the bald Wolf a few questions.
Lin Yi didn’t want to force a confession out of someone like bald Wolf. He took out a few silver needles and inserted them into bald wolf’s head. Bald Wolf woke up, but his eyes were a little dull.
“I’ll ask you a few questions and you’ll answer them one by one. Don’t hide anything. ” Lin Yi said sternly.
“Yes …” The bald Wolf seemed to have entered a state of hypnosis and had lost all consciousness.
Lin Yi’s master had taught him this method-it was very effective, but it could only be used on people of lower levels. After all, practitioners had extremely strong willpower, and even golden class practitioners had very strong mental power. Lin Yi couldn’t hypnotize them with this method.
However, this method was the fastest and most effective for small fish and shrimp like him. However, there would be a certain side effect after using it, which was that the person would forget a part of his memory. This memory varied from person to person, ranging from one day to four or five days, so he would not remember being hypnotized at all.
Lin Yi planned to use the same method on the foreigner, to make them forget about what happened recently so he could take the box of dollars without anyone knowing. As for the two men, he planned to give them to Chen Yutian, letting him join up with yang huaijun and song Lingshan to make another contribution. After all, catching the drug dealers and getting so much drugs was a big contribution.
Lin Yi didn’t mind letting these two use their full potential-it’d be a waste to just kill them.
“What’s your name? what do you do? what organization do you belong to?” Lin Yi asked.
“I’m tu lang, bald Wolf in the underworld. I’m in charge of the drug trade with red conch.” The bald Wolf said.
“Where is the headquarters of the red conch? How many people were there? Who’s the Boss? what’s his relationship with the firewolves?” Lin Yi asked.
“The red conch’s headquarters is overseas. I don’t know where it is. The one in the country is just a branch.” Bald Wolf said,”the red conch’s branch is in qingran city. The big boss is dead and the second boss has been captured. The third boss is now in charge. I don’t know the third boss ‘name because everyone calls him the third boss.” Our red conches and the fire Wolf Gang are brother gangs and help each other, but I don’t know what their relationship is. ”
Lin Yi was a little surprised-he didn’t expect Red’s headquarters to be overseas. He didn’t even know where it was, it was just a branch in China.
According to what he said, the big boss that Feng Tianlong killed was just a person in charge of the red conch branch. This red conch branch had a lot of resources!
“Does the red conch have a practitioner? What’s the highest level of a cultivator?” Lin Yi asked.
“The third master is a practitioner himself, with the strength of a Mystic late phase peak. Other than that, there’s only an early phase golden class master left.” “The red conch business is with house Yu, and the Masters are all from house Yu,” bald Wolf said.
