Now that the so-called fair cross-pavilion challenge opportunity was placed in front of them, they were rendered speechless and looked at each other.
Pavilion Master Hu Yunfeng took in the expressions of the newcomers and could not help but sneer in his heart, "Didn't you bunch of newcomers clamor for fairness? Now that a great opportunity is placed in front of you, this Pavilion Master wants to see how you're going to face this fairness that you've been dreaming of!"
Faced with such a gap in strength, the Mysterious Pavilion and Blue Cloud Pavilion newcomers, who were originally full of ambition, were all speechless for a moment.
Although the Soaring Pavilion newcomers were powerful, it did not mean that every one of them was an early-stage Foundation Establishment expert. Among the fifteen, at least five of them were only at the Heaven Stage Great Perfection, which was not very strong.
But the problem was that if only a few people came forward to challenge, even if they succeeded, it was obvious what kind of situation they would face when they reached the Soaring Pavilion's territory.
Not only would they become the target of public criticism, they might even be blacklisted by many Soaring Pavilion disciples. From then on, they would be targeted everywhere, and it would be difficult for them to advance. This was not a consequence that ordinary newcomers could bear!
In the end, the mentality of cultivators was not much different from that of ordinary people. When one's strength was not strong enough, they would have a herd mentality.
If everyone issued a challenge to the Soaring Pavilion newcomers, then perhaps many people would be eager to try. But now, with everyone's apprehension, the scene inevitably fell into an awkward silence.
In the eyes of the Mysterious Pavilion newcomers, although the Soaring Pavilion's mountaintop cave abode was good, their current cave abode was not bad either. It was just that the gap was not enough for them to take the risk out of desperation.
As for the Blue Cloud Pavilion newcomers, they were truly envious of the mountaintop cave abode, but most of them were only at the Heaven Stage Great Perfection. Even if they faced the weakest newcomer from the Soaring Pavilion, they might not have a chance of winning. If they really jumped out to challenge, they would be laughed at instead.
"What? Isn't this something all of you strongly requested? Now that the matter has come to a head, why aren't any of you saying anything? "Hu Yunfeng deliberately swept her gaze over the Clear Cloud Pavilion's new disciples, her eyebrows raised in disdain.
The newcomers were all speechless and unconsciously shrunk their necks. At this time, they did not dare to rashly stand out.
"An inter-pavilion challenge? This is something that you all strongly requested. This Pavilion Master deliberately applied to the higher-ups, but in the end, you don't even dare to fart. If you're so cowardly and irresponsible, how can you achieve great things in the future? " As Hu Yunfeng reprimanded the rookies, his eyes finally landed on Qiao Hongcai. He still clearly remembered that this fellow had shouted the loudest back then.
Being stared at by Hu Yunfeng like this, Qiao Hongcai couldn't hold it in anymore. He had a fiery temper, how could he stand Hu Yunfeng's provocation?
Not to mention, with his current strength. Unless the opponent was an expert at the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Building Realm like Meng Tong or Murong Zhen, they should have a certain chance of winning against any expert from the Soaring Sky Pavilion.
However, Lin Yi had given them instructions beforehand. He told him and Xiao Ran not to challenge him recklessly. Whether it was him, Qiao Hongcai or Xiao Ran, they were not the kind of people who liked to pick on pushovers. However, if they were to challenge the early stage Foundation Building Realm experts of the same level in the Soaring Sky Pavilion … It was hard to say how much of a chance they had of winning. The risk was not small.
Moreover, because of Lin Yi's existence, he could guarantee that the two of them would have enough medicinal pills. In comparison, the demand for the cave abode at the top of the mountain was not too high. It was just that it was not worth taking such a risk for the cave abode at the top of the mountain.
Qiao Hongcai had a fiery temper, but he had always listened to Lin Yi. Since Lin Yi had already spoken, he could only suppress his impulse. He simply closed his eyes and ignored Hu Yunfeng's mockery.
Qiao Hongcai ignored Hu Yunfeng and Xiao Ran even less so. As for the other experts from Clear Cloud Pavilion, Meng Tong was still in a state of recovering from his severe injuries, Murong Zhen was kicked out by the Soaring Sky Pavilion in the first place, so there was no reason for them to rush up to Clear Cloud Pavilion's doorstep to make a fool out of themselves. Li Zhengming was determined to keep a low profile, none of them had any intention of stepping out to challenge Hu Yunfeng.
"Still no one wants to challenge you? This Pavilion Lord has heard many people talking about how amazing this batch of Clear Cloud Pavilion's new disciples are, how heaven-defying they are. Too bad, it looks like it's all a joke. Cowering like a turtle, is this the so-called strength in your eyes? "Hu Yunfeng continued to provoke them with cold words.
Not only was he unforgiving, but this was also a rare opportunity for him to consolidate his prestige. He wanted to teach these ignorant newcomers a lesson so that he could manage them better in the future.
But, he had forgotten that not all newbies would be suppressed by his schemes. At least, Lin Yi wouldn't be able to do so.
Not allowing Qiao Hongcai and Xiao Ran to challenge him did not mean that Lin Yi could not do it. With his current strength, he could absolutely suppress any newcomer. There was no risk at all.
"Pavilion Lord Hu, you haven't even announced the specific rules. How are people supposed to challenge you? Don't you think it's too early to say that you're a coward? "Lin Yi said indifferently.
Hu Yunfeng's face turned red. He immediately realized that he had been a little too hasty. He straightened his neck and said, "You newcomer really have no understanding. Do you need me to say more about this? The rules are naturally the same as the challenge. The only difference is that you can challenge other pavilions!"
Lin Yi smiled nonchalantly. He then stood up and said, "Alright, I'll take the lead and challenge the newcomer from the Soaring Pavilion, Kang Ming Ming."
As soon as he said this, the audience suddenly went into an uproar. Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Kang Ming Ming.
Looking at all the newcomers from the Three Pavilions, there were two people in the limelight. One was the monstrous rising Blue Cloud Pavilion's Lin Yi, and the other was the Soaring Pavilion's Kang Ming Ming, who was supported by Young Master Xu and Pavilion Lord Hu Yunfeng.
The key was that these two people came from the secular world. It was said that there was even a deep hatred between them. Unfortunately, because the two of them belonged to the Blue Cloud Pavilion and the Soaring Pavilion respectively, in the eyes of the public, they were basically kings that didn't meet each other. There had never been a chance for a head-on confrontation.
But this time, the opportunity finally came. Everyone present had the intention to watch the show.
Being called out by Lin Yi in public, Kang Ming Ming had long expected this. With the conflict between him and Lin Yi, Lin Yi would definitely seize this opportunity to attack him.
Therefore, Kang Ming Ming had been secretly preparing since the beginning. It was just that his trump card was not ready yet.
