Even if he couldn't kill him that way, he could use the opportunity to screw him over and make his points drop like crazy. Maybe Meng Tong could even overtake him, and that would be something to be happy about!
"You're our Clear Cloud Pavilion's number one new disciple, no matter what, you should at least register a little more to bring honor to our Clear Cloud Pavilion ah!" Meng Jueguang's face was full of righteousness as he spoke.
"Heh heh, you guys might not know this, but Bro Lin Yi was already an elixir refiner back in the common world- he has a thorough understanding of the properties of these elixirs, he's a true expert! Getting twenty to thirty pills is nothing to him, it's already a waste of his abilities, I think it's no problem for him to get more!" Kang Zhaoming saw the situation and helped to flatter him.
With all the conflicts he had with Lin Yi, he wouldn't let go of a chance like this that could put Lin Yi in a difficult position.
After he said that, the other newbies in Blue Cloud Pavilion went into an uproar. They only knew that Lin Yi was strong, but they didn't expect him to be a refiner.
Although the status of alchemists in the Cultivation World had always been considered high, because most of their energy was devoted to alchemy, and their strength was mostly improved by taking various elixirs, their strength was generally weaker than other experts of the same level.
Of course, there were exceptions to everything. Dan God Zhang Liju wasn't just someone who stood at the peak of refiners, he was also extremely strong, not any weaker than the other giants of Sky class island.
What the newbies didn't expect was that Lin Yi, who stood in front of them, was a monster as well- 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 the same level as the Dan God Zhang Liju, but compared to the newbies of the three pavilions, he was already a powerful existence.
All of a sudden, all the newbies looked at Lin Yi with even more envy, jealousy, and hatred.
"Damn, so you're a refiner, you're a refiner! We can't waste such a great opportunity- we've already gotten two full marks, it'd be weird if we don't try, right? I think thirty is too little. Just because of your reputation as a pretentious newbie, you have to aim for full marks no matter what. Otherwise, it would be too degrading! "Meng Tong heard this and immediately echoed in surprise.
To him, if Lin Yi did not make a fatal mistake, then he would not be able to surpass Lin Yi in the subsequent rounds of the assessment. He could only be stepped on by Lin Yi. Only a test like the Elixir Trial that could deduct points could help him close the gap quickly, or even overtake the others.
Of course, this was all based on the premise that Lin Yi was hot-headed and made a huge mistake. If Lin Yi were to honestly report ten elixir seeds like the other rookies, he would have no chance at all. Just by relying on the huge advantage accumulated in the previous two rounds, he was already able to defeat him.
A group of people began to flatter and ridicule him. Lin Yi glanced at them with a faint smile. This was a classic tactic of flattery!
But it was just as well. Without the help of these people, it would be really hard for him to ask for 40 pills. But now, it was only logical.
"Junior Brother Lin, you should be careful and just say 10. This thing is not easy to get, and it can easily affect the fourth round of the assessment. It will be very strenuous. Don't listen to these people's bewitchment," Senior Brother Ku Bi reminded him in a low voice.
Lin Yi nodded knowingly and gave the other party a reassuring look. Then, he walked to the front and faced the Spirit Medicine Nursery's manager. "Since everyone is so supportive of me, there's no reason for me to disappoint everyone. So, I'll just say forty. Actually, Kang Zhaoming is right. I wanted to say eighty!" Kang Zhaoming said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking. The crowd was in an uproar.
Not to mention Senior Brother Ku Bi and the others who were on Lin Yi's side, even Meng Jueguang and Kang Ming Ming, who had been constantly mocking him, were all stunned. Could it be that Lin Yi was really so easily provoked? Just because he was casually mocked by a few words, he chose all 40 seeds like an idiot?
And 80 at that? You really live up to your title as a pretentious newcomer with your pretentious act! Meng Tong was also secretly delighted. He had great hopes!
The sissy manager of the Spirit Medicine Nursery could not help but cover his mouth with his hand. He sized up Lin Yi in surprise and said, "Are you sure?"
When he introduced the rules previously, he had already made it clear that even the most proficient disciple in planting spiritual herbs would not be able to nurture 40 spiritual herb seeds within three months. The survival rate could not be guaranteed.
As a newcomer, even if this Lin Yi was an alchemist who was more familiar with the habits of spiritual herbs, he chose all 40 seeds in one go. This was simply thinking that he had too many points and wanted to take the opportunity to harm himself!
One must know that although Pill Masters frequently came into contact with spiritual medicines, but ultimately, this was a completely different matter from Spiritual Medicine Planters!
To put it bluntly, alchemists were like chefs. Although they came into contact with all kinds of vegetables and ingredients every day and could make good dishes, if they were asked to plant vegetables because of this, that was simply a fraud! How could cooking and planting vegetables be the same thing?
Kang Ming Ming was the most popular new disciple in the Soaring Sky Pavilion. He was also an alchemist, but he only dared to choose 20 seeds. Wasn't he courting death by announcing 40 seeds in one go? Moreover, they were about to enter the fourth round of assessment at the same time?
"I'm sure." Lin Yi nodded his head affirmatively, completely ignoring the strange expressions of everyone present.
This time, even the sissy manager of the Spirit Medicine Nursery had nothing to say. He had already kindly given Lin Yi a chance to back out, but Lin Yi refused to repent. Thus, there was nothing he could do. He could only nod his head and ask someone to prepare the spiritual herb seeds for Lin Yi.
Actually, he did not know Lin Yi at all. Whether Lin Yi lived or died had nothing to do with him. He only felt pity for these spiritual herb seeds.
Although they were cultivated in batches by the Pill Hall and the cost was not too high, they were still spiritual herb seeds. If they were cultivated well, they would become real spiritual herbs. However, if they were given to a newcomer like Lin Yi who overestimated himself, there would not be many that could survive.
However, the newcomer assessment in the Welcoming Pavilion this time was an important measure approved by the Elders Guild. As the manager of the Spirit Medicine Nursery, no matter how much his heart ached for these spiritual herb seeds, he could only pinch his nose and cooperate.
As they watched Lin Yi receive the 40 sealed spiritual herb seeds, Meng Jueguang and Kang Ming Ming looked at each other, their faces full of sarcasm.
It seemed that this pretentious newcomer really thought that he was invincible after getting full marks for two God Level assessments. He dared to jump into any trap!
