The matter of Lin Yi being exchanged for good jade was now known by many people in Yingxin Pavilion. In the eyes of everyone, probably only a few of Lin Yi's own subordinates did not know about it. If they knew, driven by benefits, they might join in to cheat Lin Yi, this stupid boss. After all, as the old saying goes, "Don't let the goodies flow into the fields of outsiders"!
Kang Ming Ming's words made everyone smile, but no one interrupted in detail. They were afraid that if they said too much, Lin Yi would realize it. After all, no matter how stupid Lin Yi was, this kind of thing could still be easily exposed if it was said face to face.
Lin Yi and the others looked at each other and smiled. The rumor that Lin Yi was cheated with waste jade was naturally heard by Senior Brother Ku Bi and Xiao Ran, and Lin Yi had already explained it to them using the same excuse that he had told Senior Brother Ku Bi in the past.
Kang Ming Ming and the others were all gloating. They thought that Boss Lin Yi was really a fool who couldn't distinguish good jade and waste jade. They didn't know that they, who believed in such absurd words, were the real fools who still helped others to earn money after being cheated.
Seeing that Lin Yi didn't bother to talk at all, Kang Ming Ming turned and said, "I came here this time because I want to communicate with you as an alchemist. In the first batch of experiments, I experimented with six elixir seeds. As a result, three of them were cultivated. There was only a 50% survival rate. I am not very satisfied with my results. What do you think, Big Newcomer Lin?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding Blue Cloud Pavilion newcomers couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Three out of six seeds survived. A 50% survival rate. This result was simply beyond the efforts of all the Blue Cloud Pavilion newcomers!
Apart from Lin Yi's group, the other 11 Blue Cloud Pavilion rookies had only managed to nurture two spiritual herb seeds. They were incomparable to Kang Ming Ming.
According to the sissy manager of the Spirit Medicine Nursery, newbies like them would be lucky if three out of ten spirit herb seeds could survive. Kang Ming Ming's 50% survival rate was already the limit. How ridiculous!
If they weren't satisfied with this kind of result, then what was the point of living for the rest of them? They might as well go buy a piece of tofu and kill themselves.
After exclaiming for a while, everyone's gaze once again landed on Lin Yi. He smiled faintly and said in a serious tone, "Only a fifty percent chance of survival, that's a little pathetic. Zhao Ming, you have to work hard, don't embarrass us alchemists."
That look on Lin Yi's face was that of a senior to a junior, and it almost made everyone laugh. Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Yi was just too much of a scumbag!
"Gah!" Kang Ming Ming's face darkened. His fifty percent survival rate had already blinded everyone in the Spirit Medicine Nursery. How dare you, an idiot who hadn't managed to nurture a single spiritual herb after such a long time, talk to me like this!
Zhong Pingliang couldn't help but laugh secretly again. Kang Ming Ming wanted to show off in front of Boss Lin Yi, but not only did he fail, he even got stepped on by Boss Lin Yi. He was probably about to explode from anger!
"Is that so? Then I'd like to ask. How many have you managed to nurture after so many days, Big Newbie Lin? You won't bring shame to us alchemists, will you? "Kang Ming Ming's face darkened as he forced a cold smile.
"Hehe … Didn't you just say that the Spirit Medicine Nursery is a part of the new manager's job? Can't you just keep your eyes open and watch? Still. Your math was taught by a PE teacher. Don't you have confidence in yourself? "Lin Yi looked at Kang Ming Ming strangely, as if he was worried about his stupidity.
With so many people looking at him like he was an idiot, Kang Ming Ming wanted to slap all of them until they became idiots. Unfortunately, that wasn't realistic. Even if he could fight, he wouldn't be able to defeat Lin Yi.
"Hmph. You have a sharp tongue. I'll wait to see you cry! " Kang Ming Ming humphed coldly. Seeing that the challenge was about to begin, he gave Zhong Pingliang a look and turned to leave.
Zhong Pingliang laughed coldly in his heart. You idiot, haven't you had enough of being stepped on? Boss Lin Yi stepped on you all the way from the common world to Sky Island. The more you suffer, the braver you become! This mental fortitude wasn't something an ordinary person could have!
It's a good thing I've joined Boss Lin Yi long ago. Otherwise, who knows when I'll be stepped on again!
Looking at Kang Ming Ming and Zhong Pingliang's backs as they left, Senior Brother Bitter, Xiao Ran, and the others looked at each other. Although they had successfully defeated the arrogant guy with their words, they couldn't help but look at Lin Yi with worry in their eyes.
"Junior Brother Lin, are you sure you can handle those elixir seeds alone …" Senior Brother Bitter couldn't help but ask after a moment of silence.
Not only did Lin Yi take forty seeds for himself, but he also took Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai's. Even Senior Brother Bitter didn't know that Lin Yi still had Li Zhengming and Zhong Pingliang's elixir seeds. But he knew one thing: if something happened to Lin Yi, then they'd all be wiped out in the trial.
Although, with the condition of the Clear Cloud Pavilion's newbies, it wouldn't be a surprise if they were all wiped out, but what the bitter senior brother was worried about was that after being provoked by Kang Zhaoming, Lin Yi might go all out and waste his pure energy on these seeds.
Once he used up too much of his true qi, not only would his strength be affected, there was a high chance that he would reveal his flaws during the challenge. This was something that even the strongest of masters couldn't avoid, and Lin Yi, the number one newcomer of Clear Cloud Pavilion, was no exception.
Even Senior Brother Bitter, who had always been honest and kind, couldn't help but wonder if this was a trap that Meng Jueguang and the others had set for Lin Yi!
According to their previous guesses, after Young Master Xu Lingchong's appearance in the last round, Meng Jueguang would definitely make a big move, and this big move might not be aimed at the two underlings, Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai. Instead, it was very likely that he would make a move on Lin Yi.
After all, with Young Master Xu's involvement, it would be child's play to deal with Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai. If you want to catch a thief, you must first catch the king!
Senior Brother Bitter wasn't the only one who had this concern. Even Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai could easily think of this. After all, Kang Ming Ming and Meng Jueguang were all Young Master Xu's underlings, and they were all in the same group. It was normal for them to have this kind of tacit understanding!
