The marching monk smiled in greeting, as if thanking this person for speaking up for justice, but his heart was clear. He naturally knew this person. What Ma Bailu? It was all a smokescreen. In fact, he also had a Daoist name, Qing Xuan. The Three Pure Ones' Ox Nose had a much bigger reputation.
He and that Lou Xiaoyi wore the same pair of pants. The two of them were acting out a double act here!
They were two bad seeds. One was openly pulling in people, and the other was secretly adding fuel to the fire. The people who could help him weren't many. They were basically limited to Buddhists, and not all of them. That was because in this realm, everyone had their own views on how to get along with Buddhism, and they weren't necessarily as radical as them.
Duan Li opened his mouth. He had to open his mouth. The first twelve had to open their mouths. No one could make a decision for them. Even if the other eleven people gave up, he still had the right to insist on his own interests. This was what a cultivator relied on their own ability to obtain. It was what they fought for, so why did they have to give it up?
Of course, if they persisted, it might give people the impression that they weren't magnanimous, and they might lose some connections. It all depended on how the cultivator looked at this problem!
"It doesn't matter if I'm ranked second or third. What belongs to me should belong to me! Even if I don't use it and give it to others, that's another matter! "
He could see that the three Eastern Sky cultivators were opposing each other here! You guys were like dogs biting dogs. Why should others follow along and give up what they worked hard for?
Northern Sky's San Geng and Hua Hu both chose not to give up their share. They also disdained to explain anything, and only respected their own efforts.
On the contrary, the Western Sky's Sheyi and the Southern Sky's Hong Tiangang chose to give up. No one had asked them to do so, but they were confident in their own strength. If there was no such reward, whatever they wanted, they would naturally take it back!
These five people didn't join the Eastern Sky's three people. Their choice was also based on their own intentions. Starting from their own point of view, they would do what they thought was right. They wouldn't be confused by power disputes. This was a cultivator's natural quality. But from this, it could also be seen that if they wanted to use these people for their own purposes, it was basically impossible!
Lou Xiaoyi and Qing Xuan's divine senses collided. In this matter, they had already grasped this group of people's code of conduct!
They discovered that they weren't easy to fool! This was true for them, and it was true for the marching monks as well. Every one of them had a definite idea, and it was not something that could be solved by friendship, hot-bloodedness, or deceit.
A good Spiritual Conference had a strong start and a weak finish. In the end, only Duan Li, San Geng, Hua Hu and the others had a chance. It could be imagined that their so-called unwillingness to give up was just a gesture. When the time came for the rewards to be given out, the three of them would definitely not accept the rewards. The core of their attitude was: What belongs to me, no one can take it away from me, unless I don't want it!
By the same logic, none of the cultivators ranked after the twelfth place would be so shameless as to ask for something that didn't belong to them. If they didn't obtain it with their own ability, they would rather not have it! It was hard to say if everyone present could do this when there was no one around, but in such a public place, there could only be one result!
He had taken a step forward at such a young age. He was proud, reserved, and cherished his reputation. This was a matter of principle!
On the surface, the three mighty figures were shaking their heads and sighing, but the conversation between them was completely different!
Yangon complained, "What are these people doing? You can't even keep an eye on a few fragments? And let them escape? You're making us sit here like candles. I've cultivated for over ten thousand years, and I actually have to rely on this kind of little trick to take advantage of the younger generation's things. How embarrassing! "
Gu Chan humphed. "What do you mean you can't keep an eye on them? It's just that you can't bear to give them away! That's why you found such a lame excuse! Do you think others are stupid with this little thought? In the end, they're just watching the show from behind, pushing us to the front like we're sitting on pins and needles! "
Wu Ma sighed. "Fortunately, that Cigarette Butt's behavior was a little unrestrained. If everyone followed the rules, I'd like to see how your Buddhist lineage would be able to put your face!"
What they said actually had other secrets.
In terms of how to treat these young freaks, the thousand-odd people of the Interior Heaven actually had their own standpoints. They weren't completely united, and there was no so-called leadership core. It was an extremely loose structure, and the cornerstone of the core was the hundred-odd second severance mighty figures. Among them, there were also all kinds of scheming against each other and undermining each other.
This was the reality of Daoism and Buddhism opposing each other, mixed with some strange creatures. Daoism had its own internal factions, and Buddhism also had their own standpoints.
On the whole, nurturing these young people was the general trend, but there was also a very important voice — self-reliance and self-improvement! In other words, they didn't agree with this kind of cramming support that gave benefits, and letting them run on their own should be the best help.
In the end, it was Yangon's faction that gained the upper hand, and that was why this assembly was carried out. At the same time, the 12 shards were also provided by each person. This was an agreement reached. Who knew that the assembly had already started, and the promises had been made, but there were dissidents who played dirty tricks. Using some unknown method, they opened a hole in the space where the Interior Heaven stored the shards …
When they received this news, the competition of the assembly was already nearing its end. They had boasted, but couldn't give out the reward, so this was a great loss of face.
With no other choice, the matter was urgent, and there was no time to find a way to remedy the situation. Thus, Yangon had no choice but to use this plan, and use Lou Xiaoyi's so-called cheating to provoke the arrogance of all the young freaks!
The rules were very vague. It didn't say that they could seek outside help, nor did it say that they couldn't. This was the characteristic of how cultivators spoke and acted — if they didn't say anything, they wouldn't be able to understand! Why? It was so that they could settle the score after the event, and patch it up!
This was a good habit. As a matter of fact, this disgraceful assembly had failed, and the scene had undergone a very strange change after they decided to punish the cheater!
It had to be said that when it came to cunning, the young foxes were still not as good as the old foxes! Of course, these people really didn't take such a reward seriously, and this was also the truth!
Pride could also be used. The three old men who had lived for fifty thousand years understood this too well!
This time, they had finally covered up their embarrassment, but there was no such thing as an airtight wall in the Cultivation World! With the passage of time, the various things that happened at the assembly couldn't escape the investigation of those who were observant. After all, who could come here without the Seven Orifices Heart?
The three mighty figures decided to make up for it!
Originally, according to the original plan, this assembly would be simple. It would officially end after the shard rewards were given out, and the remaining problems would be left to these restless young people to deal with themselves. Anyway, they knew each other, so how could they fight each other? You couldn't tie them up forever.
However, in terms of the rewards, the organizers had played a trick. In fact, the best way to cover it up was to use a more attractive event to dispel all the previous doubts.
This was called shifting the focus of attention.
They were all old freaks, so doing it was effortless and easy!
