Elder Zhao didn't mind as he turned to Lin Yi,"Why don't you tell me yourself?"
Lin Yi curled his lips."What's there to say? even if I did, it wouldn't be convincing."
"Hmph, at least you have some self-awareness."
The faces of the members of the talisman making society turned slightly better, and they immediately said,"Since you've admitted it yourself, don't come out and swindle people in the future. The logistics department is related to the welfare of the entire school's teachers and students. If anything were to happen, you won't be able to bear the responsibility!"
Lin Yi couldn't help but look at them as if they were idiots."What did I admit? I just didn't want to waste my breath. What are you misunderstanding?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Why was this different from what they had agreed on? I've already given you a way out, but you're still unwilling to step down. You can't really think that you can go against the entire talisman making society by yourself, right?
Jiang Ziheng coughed twice and stood up."Lin Yi bro, you have to be careful with what you say. Do you know what it'll mean if a new student like you breaks the supply agreement between the logistics department and the society?"
"My big brother Lin Yi broke your agreement?"
Realization dawned on Wang shiqing, and she shouted at elder Zhao,""Grandpa, is this the art of speech?"
Elder Zhao smiled."That's right. This little girl is intelligent!"
The old and the young echoed each other, causing Jiang Ziheng's face to turn red. At this time, it was not only the members of the talisman making society who were present, but the other clubs and freshmen around them had also gathered.
No matter when and where, it was human nature to watch a show.
This time, Jiang Ziheng was really embarrassed. The key was elder Zhao's stance. Today was definitely not a simple whim. He had probably already thought about what to do, and his goal was most likely the talisman making society.
As for Lin Yi, he'd most likely become the old man's gun without even realizing it-was it even possible for him to be able to support the supply of talismans to the logistics department by himself?
"Lin Yi bro, I'll represent the talisman society to express my stance. No matter what, as long as you're willing to work in the talisman industry, we'll welcome you with open arms. As the president, I sincerely hope that you can join our society and bring glory to the school's talisman industry!"
Jiang Ziheng immediately changed his strategy, and with a few beautiful words, he forcibly stabilized the situation.
The other members of the talisman making society also immediately reacted and hurriedly followed suit to put in a good word for him.
Putting face aside, as long as Lin Yi agreed to join the Society, they wouldn't lose anything. As long as it was meat, it would rot in the pot. Lin Yi's share was the society's share, and even elder Zhao had to pinch his nose and accept it.
The point was that everyone was watching, and Lin Yi couldn't just ignore it, unless he was determined to never join the Society.
That would be just right for Jiang Ziheng's intentions. No matter what choice he made, he would not lose out.
To his surprise, Lin Yi looked at him strangely."Senior Jiang is really welcoming me?"
"That's natural. "
Jiang Ziheng smiled calmly. Although the smugness was not written on his face, he could give full marks for his response.
"Sure," Lin Yi raised a brow,"but I have a problem-I don't like to lower myself. I wonder what's the decision for the president's position?" Is it based on seniority, or the capable?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Some nosy people around them immediately took out their phones and started taking pictures. It was only the first day of the club's recruitment, and the new student was going to challenge the president's position. Moreover, it was a big club like the talisman making club. This was definitely big news!
This time, even Jiang Ziheng froze."Are you serious?"
"Could it be that I can 't?"
Lin Yi was being reasonable,"If you really can 't, then forget it. I was just asking."
"I was just asking ..."
Jiang Ziheng suddenly spewed out a stomach full of vulgarities. You're clearly F * cking prepared, and most likely colluded with old man Zhao. So many people are looking at you, and you're telling me to just ask?
If he were to slip away in this situation, he would become a joke as the new president of the talisman making society.
Forcefully suppressing his anger, Jiang Ziheng said seriously, "There's nothing that's impossible. It's the school's tradition for the capable to occupy the position. Our talisman making society is no exception. However, you have to think this through. Challenging the president is not child's play. This is a gambling match. You have to take out a corresponding wager. Are you sure you have it?"
"If I lose, the logistics department will give me all of their shares to the talisman making society. I'll also work for you for free. Is that okay, elder Zhao?"
Lin Yi turned to old Zhao.
Elder Zhao laughed."I don't care. As long as you keep the quality of the talismans, it's up to you whether it belongs to the talisman making society or you. It has nothing to do with me or the logistics department."
"Any more questions?"
Lin Yi looked at Jiang Ziheng.
Jiang Ziheng's expression flickered. Of course, he could forcefully decline it, but from the expressions of the other members of the talisman society, he knew that if he really did so, he would definitely be criticized behind his back. After all, the logistics department's share of talismans and formations was too important.
Finally, Jiang Ziheng made a decision."Alright, it's a deal then."
"Interesting, then this old man will be the judge for you, you don't mind, right?"
Elder Zhao chuckled as he interjected.
"Of course, it would be my honor."
Jiang Ziheng gritted his teeth and agreed. Even though he knew that the old man had ill intentions, he could not refuse. After all, whether it was in terms of experience or ability, he was more than qualified to make this judgment.
Fortunately, he wasn't afraid of being pulled aside in front of so many people. After all, the rules of the competition were set by him, the one being challenged!
In less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the recruitment venue had been transformed into a fighting arena. Strictly speaking, it was actually two opposite platforms. After all, this was a battle between talisman Masters. It was not a fight, but a competition of refining talismans.
Both sides took their respective positions.
Jiang Ziheng then announced the rules of the competition: "It's a body curse spell with a time limit of two hours. Are you okay with that, Lin Yi bro?"
"There's a problem. "
"I've never seen the blueprint before, so I can't make it,"Lin Yi blinked.
"That's your own problem. Since you don't know how to do it, then just admit defeat. What's there to say?"
The one who spoke up was the female talisman master who had spoken up for Jiang Ziheng. Not only her, but a group of members of the talisman society also began to encourage him. These were all Jiang Ziheng's die-hard supporters.
Tang Yun, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said,""You can't say that. Since it's a competition, we have to pay attention to the fairness at the very least. Otherwise, it's child's play. If the person who set the questions randomly set a formation that only he knows, wouldn't he be invincible?"
Wang shiqing chuckled and chimed in."Hehe, I only know how to count numbers. I use it to count ants when I'm bored. Great president Jiang, do you want to have a competition with me?"
Everyone was speechless.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on elder Zhao. After all, he was the judge.
