However, even though that was the case, Meng Tong, the owner of Cave Mansion No.15 at the foot of the mountain, was indeed in the most advantageous position in the next round of the challenge. There was no doubt about this. Other than him, it was impossible for anyone else to obtain a theoretical full score of 119 points. It would only be lower than this, not higher.
This was a congenital advantage, and no amount of effort could change it.
So, from this point of view, on the first day he came to the Welcome Pavilion, Lin Yi snatched his Cave Mansion No.1 at the foot of the mountain and gave him the worst Cave Mansion No.15 at the foot of the mountain. In a sense, Lin Yi had helped him. After all, at that time, no one would have thought that the challenge would have such a rule.
Facing Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai's complaints and confusion, the bitter senior brother analyzed, "In fact, the purpose of the challenge rules is very obvious. It is to encourage the newcomers to fight with everyone else as much as possible. Only then can they hope to obtain as many points as possible. This way, they can see the potential and shortcomings of each newcomer to the greatest extent. The reflected points will also have reference value."
"That's right. If you blindly pursue a high ranking, even if the challenge succeeds, it will be useless. After getting 15 points, you can only be like Xiao Ran now. You can't take the initiative to challenge and can only deal with the challenges. You will be in a completely passive position. This is very embarrassing. Instead, it is better to start from a low ranking and challenge one by one. This way, you can obtain more points. "Lin Yi agreed.
When Qiao Hongcai heard this, he finally figured out something. He suddenly realized something and said, "In that case, people like us, who are in the lower ranking cave dwellings from the beginning, have an advantage?"
He was in Cave Mansion No.13 at the foot of the mountain. Except for Lin Yi in Cave Mansion No.14 and Meng Tong in Cave Mansion No.15, his position was indeed more advantageous than other Blue Cloud Pavilion newcomers.
"That's right. You just have to challenge one cave mansion at a time. With your current strength, you should still have a great chance to get a lot of points." Lin Yi nodded.
"Hehe, I didn't expect our rotten cave mansion to have such benefits. It seems that the previous month was not in vain!" Qiao Hongcai couldn't help but laugh.
To newcomers who lacked cultivation resources like Spirit Jades, it was not easy to deal with them. The quality of a cave abode was crucial, especially for a newcomer like Qiao Hongcai, whose initial strength was not very outstanding. If not for Lin Yi's care, it would have been impossible for him to reach his current position, which was only a step away from Foundation Establishment. He could only sink into the bottom of the newcomers. If he did not have any other opportunities, he might not have any future in this life.
However, with Qiao Hongcai's current strength, it was impossible for her to defeat him. Even if he hadn't successfully established his Foundation, his strength was enough to rank in the top five among all the rookies in Blue Cloud Pavilion. Coupled with this extremely advantageous starting position, after formulating a challenge plan, there was indeed a high chance that he could earn a lot of points.
On the other hand, although Xiao Ran's strength was above Qiao Hongcai's, he was placed in the most awkward position in Cave Mansion No. 1 at the foot of the mountain. If there was no big turnaround, it would be very difficult for him to make any progress.
Thinking of Xiao Ran's current awkward situation, everyone was momentarily at a loss for words. When Lin Yi gave him the Cave Mansion No. 1 at the foot of the mountain, his original intention was to support his own people, and in the past month, Xiao Ran had indeed benefited a lot from it.
According to Lin Yi's estimation, looking at the entire Three Major Pavilions. Apart from the four who had successfully established their Foundation Establishment, Xiao Ran was definitely one of the few remaining rookies who were closest to establishing their Foundation Establishment. Moreover, his strength was profound, not the least bit inferior to the few outstanding people in Soaring Sky Pavilion and Mysterious Pavilion. Once he succeeded in establishing his Foundation Establishment, even an expert like Meng Tong, who had established his Foundation Establishment earlier than him, might not be his match.
However, no one had expected that. Lin Yi's well-intentioned decision would instead put Xiao Ran in such an awkward situation.
Of course, this kind of thing could not be blamed on Lin Yi. Even Xiao Ran, the person involved, only had gratitude and worship for him, and never had any resentment for doing bad things with good intentions. It could only be said that fate made fools of people. The current situation was also unexpected.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment. Suddenly, he suggested, "How about this, Xiao Ran, I'll exchange cave mansions with you. This way, you will be in Cave Mansion No. 14 at the foot of the mountain, which will be in a more advantageous position like Hongcai. It will be convenient for you to compete for challenge points. "
As soon as these words came out, Senior Brother Ku Bi and the others were suddenly shocked, especially Xiao Ran who was suddenly moved.
"Absolutely not. Boss Lin Yi, it's rare for you to have such a high score before. It's a great opportunity for you to advance triumphantly and leave a deep impression on the higher-ups of the three pavilions. It's a great opportunity for you to pave the way for your future development. If you give up this opportunity for me, I can't afford it!" After coming to his senses, Xiao Ran hurriedly refused.
Lin Yi had a god-level appearance of full marks in the previous two rounds. If he could maintain this rhythm, then not only in Blue Cloud Pavilion, but also in Soaring Sky Pavilion and Mysterious Pavilion, he would definitely be worthy of being the number one newcomer.
In the future, if he entered Blue Cloud Pavilion with such qualifications, he would definitely be recognized by the higher-ups and elders. In the future, it would not be a problem for him to soar into the sky!
However, if he exchanged cave abodes with Xiao Ran now and took the initiative to jump into the pit of cave abode number one at the foot of the mountain, it would be very difficult for him to perform in the following rounds of the challenge. If no other newcomers came to challenge him, it would be useless no matter how strong he was. He could only watch helplessly as his competitor, Meng Tong, plunder points wantonly, and he would be powerless to do anything about it.
It should not be forgotten that although Lin Yi had accumulated a lot of advantages in the previous two rounds, Meng Tong had the help of Meng Jueguang and the others after all. His performance was not bad either, and he was only 33 points behind Lin Yi.
In this round of the challenge, the theoretical full marks were 119 points. Once Lin Yi fell into the pit of cave abode number one at the foot of the mountain and was unable to extricate himself, he would almost certainly be overtaken by Meng Tong, and there would even be a big gap because of this.
In this way, the full marks he had obtained in the previous two segments would all be for naught.
After all, the higher-ups and elders only looked at the final points, and would not carefully analyze the performance of each round. At that time, the first place in Blue Cloud Pavilion was very likely to be Meng Tong, and Lin Yi could only settle for second place at most. If that happened, he, Xiao Ran, would become a sinner for all eternity!
Therefore, although he was very touched by Lin Yi's suggestion, he would never agree to it!
