Looking at the agitated newcomers from Mysterious Pavilion and Blue Cloud Pavilion, Hu Yunfeng did not seem worried at all. Instead, he said calmly, "The newcomer assessment rules were approved by the Elders Guild. If you have any objections, you can protest to the Elders Guild. I won't stop you."
That one sentence caused all the newcomers to choke speechless.
The Elders Guild was the existence that stood at the peak of the entire north island. A group of newcomers who had not even reached the Foundation Establishment Stage dared to protest to the Elders Guild? Even if they wanted to die, this was not the way to do it!
Lin Yi shook his head helplessly. With the backing of the Elders Guild, Hu Yunfeng had nothing to fear. It could be seen that the Three Major Pavilions were gradually being controlled by Soaring Sky Pavilion. This was indeed true. Otherwise, the assessment rules that obviously favored the newcomers from Soaring Sky Pavilion would not have been approved by the Elders Guild.
After a short pause, seeing that the new disciples were silent, Hu Yunfeng nodded in satisfaction and continued, "But, in order to avoid any resentment in your hearts, saying that the rules are deliberately biased towards the Soaring Sky Pavilion's new disciples, after this year's new disciple assessment, the Profound Secrets Pavilion and Clear Cloud Pavilion's new disciples will have one last chance to challenge each other. As long as you win, you will be able to obtain the other's cultivation dwelling. This way, you should have nothing to say, right?"
The newcomers looked at each other, then nodded and gave up.
However, there was still something fishy about this. For example, the Newcomer Assessment lasted for five months. In addition to the month that had already passed, by the time the assessment ended, the Soaring Sky Pavilion's newcomers would have occupied the best cave abode for half a year. This half a year was enough for them to leave the newcomers from the other two pavilions behind.
However, having a chance to challenge was better than nothing. At least they could hope for the next half of the year. Otherwise, they would not even have a chance for the next half of the year.
Looking at the newcomers who had given up, Lin Yi could not help but sigh secretly, "Hit with a stick and then give a date to eat. The thorny situation that was originally difficult to appease was so easily resolved. This Pavilion Leader Hu Yunfeng's methods could be said to be shrewd and ruthless!"
Hu Yunfeng had long expected this scene. He paused for a moment and said, "Before the official start of this newcomer assessment. This Pavilion Master has something else to announce. Due to the many segments of the newcomer assessment, in addition to the two stewards of each of the three pavilions, there was a need for an additional newcomer deacon to be responsible for the calculation and announcement of the points. Of course, this task required a lot of effort and was considered a free service for everyone, so it would definitely affect the person's assessment results. Therefore, in addition to the new deacon's monthly salary, we will also give this newcomer fifty assessment points as compensation. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience immediately started discussing spiritedly.
The matter of the new deacon had already been voted by the public at the beginning of last month. In the end, although Kang Ming Ming's votes far surpassed Zhang Lixing of the Mysterious Pavilion under Xu Lingchong's care, it didn't exceed two-thirds of the votes. It could only be left empty for now.
However, even though they were both new Deacons, their previous responsibilities were only in charge of the distribution of low-level missions, and the rewards weren't that great. However, this time, the new Deacon in charge of calculating the points would receive 50 assessment points as compensation in addition to their regular salary. This made all the rookies present envious!
One had to know that in the six segments of the assessment, one could at most get fifty to sixty points in each segment. There were even a few segments where the first place could not even reach the height of fifty points. In other words, being the new Deacon was equivalent to having an additional assessment segment, and this segment would naturally give him full marks.
As long as there were no major problems in the six assessments, this was the rhythm of a guaranteed first place!
All the rookies were burning with passion. They were hoping that this pie that fell from the sky would hit them, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this candidate had long been decided internally.
As expected, Hu Yunfeng immediately said, "This position will be taken up by Kang Ming Ming. He was the one who obtained the first place in the previous Deacon selection, and he also obtained first place in the back mountain trial two days ago in Soaring Sky Pavilion, be it prestige or strength. He is the most suitable person to take this position. Do you have any objections? If you have any, raise your hand and say it. Don't privately complain about it being manipulated behind the scenes and affect the image of our Welcome Pavilion! "
All the rookies were immediately awakened by a basin of cold water. They looked at each other, but no one said a word.
Firstly, according to Hu Yunfeng, Kang Ming Ming indeed had the qualifications to be the new Deacon. The others did not have the confidence to compete with him.
Secondly, the Newcomer Assessment was ranked separately by the three pavilions, which meant that even if Kang Ming Ming became the new Deacon, the greatest impact would be on the Soaring Sky Pavilion's own rookies. It had little to do with the Mysterious Pavilion and Blue Cloud Pavilion rookies.
And the Soaring Sky Pavilion rookies had always been obedient to Xu Lingchong. Letting Kang Ming Ming be the new Deacon was entirely Xu Lingchong's idea, so they naturally would not object. As for the other two pavilions, it was none of their business, so there was no need for them to seek their own misfortune.
"Since none of you are saying anything, it seems like there are no objections. Then it's decided. From today onwards, Kang Ming Ming will be your new Deacon!" Hu Yunfeng immediately announced.
"Thank you, thank you." Kang Ming Ming smiled and cupped his hands at the rookies. He was so proud of himself that it made the rookies envious. However, it was useless to be envious. He had the support of Young Master Xu Lingchong!
Actually, there were some who were not convinced, but they did not dare to say it out loud. Hu Yunfeng directly said those who had objections to raise their hands. Wasn't that the same as shooting the bird that poked its head out?
Qiao Hongcai wanted to speak, but she was held back by Lin Yi, who smiled faintly and shook his head! This so-called Newcomer Deacon might be a very impressive and lucrative position in the eyes of others, but in Lin Yi's eyes, it was nothing!
It was a waste of time for him to be the Deacon! If he had the time, he might as well go to the Spirit Jade Mine and dig out some waste jade!
After selecting the Newcomer Deacon, the next step was to familiarize himself with the rules. After that, the Newcomer Assessment would officially begin. The six segments would be completed within the next five months. After looking carefully at the content of the first segment, Lin Yi could not help but laugh. It was yet another familiar test, resisting coercion!
Don't forget, when he participated in the Hidden Families Summit in the secular world, he had experienced such a test. Now that he had to face a similar situation, it was as if he was very familiar with it.
