Under the respectful and envious gazes of the newcomers, Meng Tong smiled smugly. He looked at Lin Yi disdainfully and said, "As an early-stage Foundation Establishment expert, we need to have the dignity of an early-stage Foundation Establishment expert. Especially the few of us who succeeded in the Foundation Establishment Stage first, we need to set an example for others, lest people think that the stronger you are, the less courageous you are. Pretentious newbie, don't you think so? Of course, if you don't have the strength, just pretend I didn't say anything. After all, not every Tom, Dick, or Harry can challenge someone of a higher level! Hahaha! "
Without waiting for Lin Yi's response, Meng Tong immediately laughed and turned to leave. His mission had been successfully completed. With Lin Yi's usual pretentious behavior, it would be strange if he did not think of ways to slap their faces after being ridiculed to such an extent!
The group of newcomers left with Meng Tong. Qiao Hongcai clenched her fists in righteous indignation and said, "These bastards are too much. Boss Lin Yi, you have to perform well later. Get another god-level full score and slap their faces until they can't take care of themselves anymore. Let's see if they still have the face to say such sarcastic words then!"
"Wrong!" Senior Brother Ku Bi looked at Lin Yi's gloomy expression and hurriedly advised, "These people are obviously trying to provoke you. Their goal is to force Junior Brother Lin to challenge someone of a higher level. Once you really do that, you will fall into their trap. Junior Brother Lin, you have to think twice. This is not something to be trifled with!"
Xiao Ran also reminded, "Indeed, this group of people is too deliberate. There's definitely something fishy going on when things are abnormal. Boss Lin Yi, you can't be impulsive."
After listening to the two of them, Qiao Hongcai finally realized the mystery behind it. She said with lingering fear, "Damn, that's too sinister! How can Meng Tong have such a brain? It must be Meng Jueguang playing tricks behind the scenes. I was just spouting nonsense just now. Boss Lin Yi, don't take it to heart. After all, safety first! With Meng Tong's strength, he dared to choose the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment? That's bullsh * t! He's definitely trying to deceive Boss Lin Yi, that's why he said that on purpose! "
Looking at the three people's anxious expressions, Ye Zichen felt a chill run down his spine. Lin Yi smiled and said, "You guys can rest assured. Do I look like such a brainless person? Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
The three of them looked at each other and heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that Lin Yi was still as calm as ever. To be honest, they were really afraid that Lin Yi would be stimulated to the point of losing his mind. Not to be outdone, he would also choose a peak early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. That would be really troublesome.
After all, the resistance test this time was not the same as the suppression test last time. During the suppression test, one could still observe one's state and decide at any time whether to leave the field or not. But this time, the resistance test was different. Once the level was chosen in advance, there was no chance to change it.
If one rashly chose to challenge a higher level because of a moment of impulse, the final result was likely to be directly killed by the examiner in one move. At that time, even if Elder Zhao Hongbo was present, he wouldn't be able to find a chance to save him.
While they were talking, Zhao Hongbo had already finished sealing the strength of the few Law Enforcement Hall experts. Peak late-stage Heaven Stage, Great Perfection Heaven Stage, Early-stage Foundation Establishment, Early-stage Foundation Establishment, and Early-stage Foundation Establishment each had an examiner. Since most of the newcomers were Great Perfection Heaven Stage experts, there were two extra examiners for Great Perfection Heaven Stage experts, and they could take turns.
Then. The second round of the newcomer assessment, the resistance test, officially began.
What was somewhat unexpected was that the order of the assessment this time was not according to the usual tradition of Soaring Sky Pavilion leading the way and Blue Cloud Pavilion at the end. Instead, it was the newcomers from Blue Cloud Pavilion who took the lead.
Lin Yi secretly smiled. This time, in order to target him, Xu Lingchong and the others really spent a lot of effort. They even paid attention to such a small detail.
The reason was very simple. Even if there was the provocation of Meng Tong and the others in advance, even if Lin Yi temporarily lost his reason, if there was a long time in between, it was inevitable that he would calm down. In a situation where he didn't have enough confidence, it was very likely that he would give up on challenging a higher level.
But the order of the assessment now was that the newcomers from Blue Cloud Pavilion would take the lead. This way, there wouldn't be any time left for Lin Yi to react, and the success of the plan could be guaranteed!
Seeing that Zhao Hongbo and the examiners from the Law Enforcement Hall were ready, Hu Yunfeng announced to the newcomers in a clear voice, "Next, the second round of the assessment will officially begin. Starting from the newcomers from Blue Cloud Pavilion, the two steward seniors will first organize everyone to register, and then according to the strength of each person who registered, the assessment will start from weak to strong. As the newcomer deacon, Junior Kang will be in charge of recording. "
After Hu Yunfeng finished speaking, Meng Jueguang intentionally sneered and glanced at Lin Yi. However, he didn't directly let Lin Yi register first. Instead, he walked to Meng Tong's side and indicated that he should start with him.
Meng Tong immediately raised his head and puffed out his chest, proudly saying in a loud voice, "Meng Tong, early stage of Foundation Establishment, challenge the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire crowd was in an uproar. At this moment, the newcomers from the other two pavilions who didn't know beforehand looked at Meng Tong with disbelief!
Don't forget that Pavilion Head Hu Yunfeng had specifically emphasized that everyone shouldn't choose to challenge someone of a higher level just to be a hero. That was an incurably stupid behavior. However, the first person to register, Meng Tong, actually chose to challenge someone of a higher level. Moreover, it was the most difficult of all, the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment. This really made everyone's jaws drop.
One must know that there was a common understanding in the cultivation world. When it came to challenging someone of a higher level, the higher one's strength was, the more difficult it would be. If it was said that it was said that low-level cultivators could still challenge someone of a higher level, then when it came to the early stage of Foundation Establishment and above, this kind of situation was extremely rare.
This was because at a low level, the difference in strength was still only one or two. Using a little bit of other trump cards was enough to make up for this little bit of difference. The difficulty of challenging someone of a higher level was not too high.
However, when it came to the early stage of Foundation Establishment and above, the difference in strength became ten thousand and twenty thousand. The difference was not something that could be made up for with ordinary trump cards. If one wanted to challenge someone of a higher level, the possibility of success was basically negligible.
What's more, this was a test of resistance. Wanting to challenge someone of a higher level in defense, which was the weakness of most people, in the eyes of ordinary people, was no different from courting death!
However, looking at Meng Tong's expression that was full of confidence, the newcomers found it hard to believe. However, they didn't dare to rashly mock him, for fear that they would be slapped in the face when the time came.
