Beauty and the Bodyguard

Even if he couldn't kill him, he could take the opportunity to trick him and make his points drop rapidly. Meng Tong might even overtake him. That would be a great thing!

"You're the number one newcomer of our GreenCloud Pavilion. No matter what, you should sign up more and make our GreenCloud Pavilion proud!" Meng jueguang sneered with a solemn and righteous expression.

"Hehe, maybe you guys don't know this, but this Lin Yi bro was already a refiner back in the common world. He's very familiar with the habits and characteristics of these herbs-he's a real expert! Getting twenty to thirty of them is a piece of cake for him, and that's already a waste of his ability. I think it'll be fine no matter how many he gets!" Kang Zhaoming saw this and started to flatter.

With all the grudges he'd had with Lin Yi before, he wouldn't let go of a chance like this to embarrass Lin Yi.

After hearing what he said, the other new disciples were all in an uproar. They knew that Lin Yi was strong, but they didn't expect him to be an Alchemist.

Although alchemists had a high status in the world of cultivation, because most of their energy was invested in alchemy and their strength was improved by taking various pills, they were generally weaker than other experts of the same level.

Of course, there were exceptions to everything. The pill God Zhang Liju wasn't just a top-tier Alchemist, he was also extremely powerful-he wasn't any weaker than the other big shots of Sky Class islands.

What the rookies didn't expect was that the Lin Yi standing in front of them was also a monster like this. Not only was he strong enough to crush Masters of the same level, but he was also a rare refiner!

Although his level was far from being on par with the God of alchemy Zhang Liju, he was already an impressive existence compared to the newcomers from the three pavilions.

All of a sudden, all the new people looked at Lin Yi with even more envy and jealousy.

"Damn, so you're actually a pill master! He couldn't waste this great opportunity. He had already gotten two full marks in the previous matches. It wouldn't make sense if he didn't try to get a higher score this time, right? I think 30 is too little. Since you're a newbie, you should at least get full marks. Otherwise, you'll be demeaning!" Hearing this, Meng Tong immediately agreed in shock.

As far as he was concerned, if Lin Yi didn't make any fatal mistakes, he'd never be able to surpass Lin Yi in the following tests-he'd only be stepped on by him. Only a test like this one where points were deducted would be able to help him close the gap and even surpass him.

Of course, this was all under the premise that Lin Yi made a big mistake in his heat of the moment. If Lin Yi were to sign up for ten seeds like the other newbies, he wouldn't stand a chance at all. The huge advantage he'd accumulated from the previous two rounds was enough to take him down.

Lin Yi glanced at them with a half-smile-this was a classic tactic of overpraising!

However, it was just as well. If these people didn't help, he really couldn't open his mouth to bid 40 pills. But now, it was logical.

"Junior Brother Lin, you should be safe and just name ten pills. It's not easy to get these things, and it's easy to affect the fourth assessment. It'll be very difficult. Don't listen to these people's bewitchment." The miserable senior brother reminded him in a low voice.

Lin Yi nodded in understanding, giving the man a reassuring look. He walked to the front and spoke indifferently,"Since everyone's encouraging me, I have no reason to disappoint them. I'll bid forty then. Actually, Kang Zhaoming's right, I wanted to bid eighty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire place was in an uproar.

The bitter-faced guy and the others who were on Lin Yi's side were dumbfounded, and even Meng jueguang, Kang Zhaoming, and the others who'd been making sarcastic remarks were stunned. Was Lin Yi really that stupid? he'd just been pushed around a bit and he'd pick all forty like an idiot?

And 80? You're really worthy of your title as a newbie at acting tough! Meng Tong was also secretly overjoyed. He had great hope!

The sissy manager couldn't help but cover his mouth as he looked at Lin Yi up and down in surprise."Are you sure?"

When he had introduced the rules earlier, he had clearly stated that even the disciples in the pill Hall who were the most proficient in planting spiritual medicine could not cultivate 40 spiritual medicine seeds in three months. The survival rate was not guaranteed at all.

This Lin Yi was a newbie, and even if he was a refiner who was more familiar with spiritual herbs, he was just using the chance to hurt himself by asking for forty!

One must know that although alchemists often came into contact with spiritual herbs, in the end, it was a completely different matter from being a spiritual herb gardener!

To put it bluntly, The Alchemist profession was like a chef. Although he came into contact with all kinds of vegetables and ingredients every day and could make good dishes, it was simply a scam to ask him to grow vegetables because of this! How could cooking and growing vegetables be the same?

Kang Zhaoming was the most popular new disciple in the rising Sky Pavilion. He was a refiner himself, but he only dared to bid twenty pills. He was asking for forty at once, and they were about to go through the fourth Test. Wasn't he looking for death?

"I'm sure," Lin Yi nodded with certainty, not caring about the weird looks everyone was giving him.

Even the sissy manager had nothing to say now-he'd already given Lin Yi a chance to back out of his kindness, but the guy wouldn't change his mind no matter what. There was nothing he could do but nod and order the seeds.

In fact, he didn't know Lin Yi at all, and it had nothing to do with him whether Lin Yi was Dead or Alive. He just felt pity for these spirit herb seeds.

They were all grown by the pill Hall in batches, and the cost wasn't too high, but they were still spiritual herb seeds. After they were grown, they would become real spiritual herbs, and if they were given to a newbie like Lin Yi who overestimated himself, not many of them would survive.

However, the welcoming new pavilion's newcomer assessment this time was an important measure approved by the elders Guild. As the spirit medicine nursery's Chief Steward, he could only pinch his nose and cooperate no matter how much his heart ached for these spirit medicine seeds.

As Lin Yi took the forty sealed seeds, jueguang, Zhaoming, and the others looked at each other, mocking expressions on their faces.

It seemed that after this pretentious newbie got two God-level perfect scores by luck, he really thought that he was invincible and dared to jump into any pit!

People always said that one wouldn't die if they didn't ask for it, but this idiot Lin Yi was the one who asked for it! No one could stop him! (To be continued.)
