Although Zhang Yiming had never seen Lin Yi's true strength, he had received news that Lin Yi had broken through to the Golden core stage ...
It was a pity that he still couldn't see Lin Yi's true level in a face to face fight, so he wasn't worried at all about Lin Yi losing.
Only this preliminary voting ... Was really not optimistic!
Judging from AI fan's actions, he had the possibility of beating Lin Yi completely in this aspect!
Zhang Yiming felt that he had no way out now. He could only cling onto Lin Yi. The stronger Lin Yi was, the safer he would be. If something happened to Lin Yi, he would be dead!
As the two of them were talking, another group of people came in from the entrance of the cafeteria. It was the second senior brother in charge who had a conflict with them last time!
The second Shixiong scanned the cafeteria as soon as he entered.ai fan was too focused on boasting and winning people over, so he didn't notice Lin Yi and Zhang Yiming. However, the second Shixiong noticed them immediately.
Lin Yi happened to raise his head as well, and their eyes met.
The steward's face darkened a bit as he snorted coldly. He gave Lin Yi a disdainful smile and walked into the canteen with his head held high.
"Second senior brother, come and sit here!"
When AI fan saw the steward's second senior brother, he had already stood up and greeted him."We were just talking about second senior brother. He's a forthright and righteous man, a role model for our generation!"
Lin Yi's lips twitched.ai fan seemed to be using unscrupulous means to get to the top!
With AI fan's talent and status, he could've become an inner disciple the moment he entered the sect. Lin Yi couldn't understand why he wanted to stay in the outer sect, and why was he so interested in the position of steward?
Becoming an inner sect disciple, even if it was the most ordinary member, would still be more respected than the outer sect's steward senior brother!
For example, if Lin Yi didn't have elder Qin's Secret help, he'd only be able to practice in the advanced practitioning room. He wouldn't even be able to enter the inner disciples "special practitioning room.
Another example was the library Pavilion. Only the most ordinary inner sect disciples would go to elder Ma's shared library.
Those who were slightly stronger would only go to the exclusive library of the inner sect disciples to search for ancient books, and even the outer sect's senior brother in charge did not have the qualifications to enter there!
So, what was AI fan doing?
AI fan, of course, wasn't going to answer Lin Yi's questions. He followed the steward's line of sight and saw Lin Yi's figure.
Of course, he had no intention of going over to greet them. Instead, he sat down with the steward's second senior brother warmly, eating, drinking, and laughing!
A warm smile appeared on the steward's second senior brother's face as he spoke to AI fan happily.
It was obvious that the two had a tacit understanding, and it went without saying that Lin Yi would become their common target!
"Senior brother Sima, if the two of them join forces, it will be even more troublesome ..."
Zhang Yiming looked over and said worriedly,""If it's just AI fan, senior Sima, it's no problem for you to deal with him. But if the two of them target you together, you'll be in danger during the competition, let alone the voting during the preliminary selection!"
"What do you mean? Is there a free-for-all?"
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. He wasn't afraid of a chaotic battle, but it didn't hurt to know."Why don't you tell me the rules of the competition?"
"If it's a chaotic battle, it's not impossible ... This kind of situation has happened before."
Zhang Yiming scratched the back of his head and laughed dryly."Senior brother Sima, if you want me to tell you the rules, it's really hard for me to do so. The rules of senior brother steward's selection contest change every year. It's completely determined by Martial Master Ma's mood. Sometimes, it's a fight to eliminate the opponent, sometimes it's a chaotic battle to decide the winner, and sometimes it's a mission for the participants to decide the winner through the mission."
After a slight pause, he added,"there's also everyone's voting. Generally speaking, although voting during the preliminary auditions is important, it's only used as a supplementary means. But I heard that there was one time when they didn't even compete and directly voted to decide on the appointment of senior brother steward! Of course, I don't think there were any strong competitors at that time, so I can't use it as a reference. "
Lin Yi's lips twitched. Was the steward that capricious in choosing people?
Or was it that the person in charge of the selection was so willful that it would be more convenient to just appoint him ...
Speaking of which, if there was no competition this time and they voted directly, wouldn't they be doomed?
With Lin Yi's connections, he couldn't be compared to the manager's second brother at all. Even AI fan was far behind him.
Not to mention AI fan's management among the senior disciples, more than half of the new disciples were his people!
If they were to vote, Lin Yi could just announce that he didn't vote!
"Senior brother Sima, voting is just a special case. I heard that it's only once, so this time, it should still be a battle with voting as a supplement. As for how the competition will be, I'm not sure for now."
Zhang Yiming observed Lin Yi's expression and seemed to understand what he was thinking. He continued in a low voice,"The time of this selection will most likely be placed together with the first assessment of the new disciples. My guess is that it might be related to the new disciple Assessment this time."
It was a voting system, but if AI fan and the steward worked together, Lin Yi would be completely crushed by AI fan's votes no matter how much of an advantage he had ...
Zhang Yiming's heart was beating like a drum. He didn't know if he should be more clear about this.
"Like this? What about the steward, eldest senior brother, and second senior brother? You're also participating in the test for new disciples?"
Lin Yi smiled and shook his head,"I don't think it's a game. Or are you old disciples taking the test at the same time?"
"Mm ... We do have an assessment, but the timing doesn't match up and it will be later. Perhaps eldest senior brother and second senior brother are directly one of the candidates. After the new disciples finish the assessment, we will choose the candidate for the steward senior brother and then compete?"
This possibility was quite high, and Lin Yi was inclined to believe in this possibility!
However, there was no point in thinking about this now. Everything would have to wait and see when the time came!
At that moment, two more people entered the canteen. Lin Yi smiled when he saw them and waved at the door.
This was because Ling Hanxue and Chen Zhisheng were the few companions of the sword spring sect.
He'd been busy practicing and practicing ever since he'd entered the sect, and hadn't seen the two before. It wasn't peak dining time, and the canteen was quite busy-it was the first time they'd met after entering the sect.
"Young master Sima, senior brother Zhang!"
Ling Hanxue's face was full of joy as she quickly walked over to greet Lin Yi and Zhang Yiming with cupped fists. Chen Zhisheng didn't have any special expression on his face as he followed Ling Hanxue over and greeted them.
