Lu Dachang had specifically asked Lin Yi to take care of his son, but Lin Yi had just come out of his closed-door training before they set off. He didn't see him on his own along the way, so he didn't know him. He just had some guesses based on his unique appearance that was exactly the same as Lu Dachang's.
"Bao Zuoliang? Hey, cover your mother's head! " Lu Xiaozhong's words ignited the atmosphere. Everyone was shocked. Probably only this one-track minded guy would dare to scold Bao Zuoliang to his face like this!
"Lu Xiaozhong, what did you say?!" Bao Zuoliang's face suddenly darkened. He stared at Lu Xiaozhong with an unkind expression and sandwiched him in the middle with Su Kesheng.
"I said cover your mother's head, so what? You want to hear it a third time if you can't hear it clearly? " Lu Xiaozhong was not afraid at all in the face of this posture. He had clashed with Bao Zuoliang more than once or twice, so he had long been accustomed to it. Moreover, this time he was simply targeting Bao Zuoliang.
"You're courting death!" Bao Zuoliang gritted his teeth in anger and was about to make a move immediately. Seeing this, Su Kesheng also blocked Lu Xiaozhong's retreat with an unkind expression.
"Really? I'm waiting for you to make a move. It's just the right time to take revenge for what happened last time. Come on! " Lu Xiaozhong took a posture fearlessly. "I wasn't afraid of you when I was only at the peak of the late Nascent Soul Stage, let alone now that I'm at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. I'm not afraid of you!"
Bao Zuoliang choked and looked at Su Kesheng. He had no choice but to stop. Only then did he remember that after taking the Vitality Cultivation Pill, Lu Xiaozhong was also at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared here!
In the past, he could still suppress Lu Xiaozhong by relying on his advantage in level, but now this advantage was gone. Moreover, Lu Xiaozhong fought like a madman. Previously, when he was only at the peak of the late Nascent Soul Stage, he was barely weaker than Bao Zuoliang. Bao Zuoliang needed Su Kesheng's help to completely suppress him. Now that he was at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, the two of them together might not be able to win …
Seeing Lu Xiaozhong suddenly jumping out to disturb the situation, Lin Yi couldn't help but be stunned. Like father like son, like son, was exactly the same as his father Lu Dachang!
But come to think of it, this was a good move!
Otherwise, Bao Zuoliang would take the captain's seat in the end if no one came out to fight for it. If that guy wanted to separate him from Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao, it'd be troublesome if he had to go against him.
Of course, Lin Yi was not afraid of trouble. A mere Bao Zuoliang was not worthy of his attention. However, the path of a tycoon was, after all, guarded by the higher-ups of the academy. Unless it was absolutely necessary, otherwise, Lin Yi also did not want to rashly make a mess. He came here to attack the Profound Ascension realm, not to play with a fool.
Lin Yi was laughing to himself when Lu Xiaozhong suddenly changed the topic. "Bao Wuliang, who only knows how to pull off women's skirts, wants to be the captain? Stop joking. I think there's only one person here who's truly qualified to be the team leader, and that's Master Lin! "
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned, and their gazes instantly focused on Lin Yi.
Did I have something to do with this? Lin Yi was still in a daze. He was not a disciple of the Morning Star Academy, but an outsider who came to participate in the trial. He had never thought of leading the team.
"Bullshit, he's not even from our academy, how can he be our captain?" Bao Zuoliang immediately jumped up.
"Why can't he be? Even Master Qing Danzi is Master Lin's disciple. Since Master Qing Danzi is the chief alchemist of the academy, then Master Lin is naturally a senior of the academy. You can ask everyone here, ask them if there's anyone who disagrees. "Lu Xiaozhong said confidently.
Bao Zuoliang was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices. This kind of question didn't need to be asked at all. Just by looking at the uniform movement of everyone's necks, it was clear that they were only a little afraid of him, the son of the city lord, but in the face of a freak like Lin Yi, they were completely in awe. The deterrence between the two was on a completely different level.
He racked his brains to come up with this suggestion in order to create an opportunity for himself, not to let others pick the peaches, especially when the person picking the peaches was Lin Yi, who he wanted to strangle with his own hands.
But Lu Xiaozhong suddenly made such a move, and Bao Zuoliang really didn't know how to refute for a moment. Everyone was an expert at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage, and in terms of strength, except for Wang Xinyan and Huang Xiaotao, who were recognized as super geniuses in the academy, they were basically on par. The position of captain could only fall on Lin Yi, who had the greatest background.
Bao Zuoliang gave Su Kesheng a surreptitious look, signaling him to think of a way to smooth things over. No matter what, they couldn't let Lin Yi take advantage of this situation, or they'd really go for wool and come home shorn.
Su Kesheng nodded knowingly, his eyes turning slightly as he stood up. "Alright, we'll support Master Lin as captain!"
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Bao Zuoliang almost fainted on the spot when he heard that. Su Kesheng was his most trusted and trusted follower, and he had never made a mistake before. Why did he suddenly betray him and become a traitor at this critical moment?!
Bao Zuoliang was about to curse out loud when he saw Su Kesheng giving him a look. He suspiciously snuck up behind him, wanting to hear what this kid was going to do.
"Master Bao, it doesn't matter who the captain is. Let's not cause any unnecessary trouble for now. As long as we can go in together, we'll be able to kill Lin Yi with the lightning-attracting banner. When he's finished, we'll take care of Lu Xiaozhong as well. It'll be a piece of cake! "Su Kesheng explained quietly.
"En, what you said makes sense. Let's do it this way." Bao Zuoliang thought about it and nodded.
This was a choice they had no other choice. Although it would be best if they could snatch the captain title, as Su Kesheng said, even if they couldn't, it wouldn't affect the overall situation. The most important thing right now was not to separate from Lin Yi, or else it would be useless even if they had the lightning-attracting banner. This was the only way they could proceed according to their plan. Other than that, everything else had to be put aside.
Lin Yi frowned slightly when he saw the two of them winking at each other. Although the two of them had carefully used their divine sense to block their voices, Lin Yi's intuition told Lin Yi that there must be a conspiracy between the two of them. They must be up to no good.
At the Nascent Soul Stage, although the divine sense couldn't even be considered a beginner, some of the most basic applications were very common, just like the little trick the two of them used to block their voices.
