Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before he realized that the Xiaotian he was talking about was Tian Xiangyang, the eldest son of the Tian family, and Xiao Luo was Luo Banshi, who was both his teacher and friend.

He briefly told everything that happened at Jianghai College, which made Xia Chao sigh.

"It's a pity Xiaotian, but this is also his own choice, so it can't be wrong. It's good."

Xia Chao sighed, and then asked the people in the general affairs office of the repeater college. After hearing Lin Yi's euphemistic explanation of everyone's attitude, they couldn't help but fall into silence.

After a long time, Xia Chao sighed softly and said: "I have changed their life trajectory, so it is normal for them to have resentment towards me, but I am the one who ties the bells, and I will need you to untie the bells in the future."

Lin Yi was a little confused for a moment.

Regarding the feud between Xia Chao and everyone in the General Affairs Office, he had no intention of getting involved from the beginning. After all, it was their own business.

But listening to the other party's tone of voice, could there be some hidden meaning in it?

Xia Chao said meaningfully: "Forget it about falling into the dragon. There is nothing he can do about him going astray. If you can make the other people sincerely obey, they will become your important help in the future. You must cherish it."

Lin Yi didn't know why.

Whether it is Xiang Yusheng or the other top five repeaters in the school, including Tianji, in terms of individual strength, although they are not completely unable to keep up with the Kingdom of God on land, they can hardly influence the situation of the battle. decisive combat power.

In particular, their potential has been locked and they have no chance to improve further.

Unless someone like Tianji switches careers to assist, it will be difficult for them to have a place in Lin Yi Group's future core lineup.

It's not that Lin Yi is ruthless, but that once the people around him can't keep up with him, they often have no choice but to do so and can't force it.

However, listening to Xia Chao's tone now, it seems that this is not the case.

Lin Yi was about to ask a few more questions, but Xia Chao stopped and started talking about other things.

"You came here this time, probably because you want to inquire about the affairs of the Inner Court from me, right?"

Lin Yi nodded honestly: "Not bad."

At his current level, the inner court has become a high wall that cannot be bypassed. If you want to go further, you must climb over the wall to see the scenery behind.

Looking at the Kingdom of God on land, the person who has the most say in the affairs of the Inner Court, apart from Kong Shenglin, the agent of the Inner Court, is the founder of Tianmen in front of him who once made a big fuss in the Inner Court.

Xia Chao took a sip of wine and said earnestly: "Some people say that the Inner King's Court is a hero who fights against the gods, while others say that the Inner King's Court is a group of filthy parasites."

"What are they? I can't give you that answer."

"Only if you look at it bit by bit and think about it bit by bit can you find your own answer."

"I left something in the inner palace for you. Don't forget to pick it up in the future."

Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder: "What?"

Xia Chao stretched out a finger, pointed at it, shook his head and said, "Don't say it."

After finishing the meal, Lin Yi stood up and left.

Although this meeting with Xia Chao was unexpected and many of the doubts that had been brewing before were not completely resolved, it was a great benefit to him and the trip was worthwhile.

In addition to spiritual baptism, a more important gain is actually the attitude shown by Xia Chao.

At least, not bad.

No matter what purpose the other party has with Tianmen, judging from the current contact, even if the two sides are not like-minded natural allies, they are definitely not enemies. For the current Lin Yi Group, this in itself is already It's a huge benefit.

After all, Tianmen's power is truly extraordinary.

After getting up to see Lin Yi out in person, Xia Chao turned to ask Xia Qiyuan beside him: "What do you think of Lin Yi?"

Xia Qiyuan thought for a while and said: "He is a rare hero in this world, but he is too utilitarian. If he goes astray, he will inevitably endanger the common people."

The evaluation was somewhat condescending.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xia Chao's eyes, and he sighed and shook his head: "You, not everyone has a pure upbringing like you. It's good to be innocent, but some things are too pure."

Xia Qiyuan was stunned.

He is one of the few direct disciples of Xia Chao, and he is also the most valued closed disciple and successor of the mantle.

His performance has always satisfied Xia Chao, and sighing like this now is one of the few harsh words.

And the source is just because he objectively commented on Lin Yi?

Xia Chao pondered for a moment and said quietly: "Go out and have some experience. It should be good for you to see the world of mortals."

Xia Qiyuan was puzzled, but he did not dare to question the master's arrangement, so he had to suppress his doubts and bow in agreement.

…

The ten-day period has arrived, and as expected, Lin Yi announced the second batch of registration rules for the Snake Mystery Realm as promised.

The total number of people is still limited to fifty people.

Twenty of them are on an invitation-only basis, with invitations issued publicly by Lin Yi Group, and the remaining thirty are publicly selected from among the registered practitioners. The selection event is hosted by the Fans Department.

As soon as the news came out, the whole Internet went crazy.

The 100% promotion success rate in the first wave, with the help of Xi Tathagata, has become known to everyone. Even the old, weak, women and children on the fringe are talking about it.

One more thing, this open selection is not just for the strong ones, but is evenly distributed among cultivators of all realms.

From the Qi Refining Stage to the Venerable Realm, in theory, as long as you sign up, you have a chance to compete in the audition.

In this way, it covers all cultivator groups in the Kingdom of God on land. It is no longer a strong game for a few high-level cultivators, but directly arouses the enthusiasm of the whole people to participate.

After all, even for the lowest cultivators, the temptation to be promoted is fatal.

One of the most intuitive results is that in just one day, the number of online applicants has exceeded 100,000!

According to this trend, within the three-day registration period limited by the rules, the number of applicants is very likely to exceed 400,000, or even 500,000!

This result was really beyond Lin Yi's expectation.

It is really necessary to select 30 people from 500,000 applicants, and they have to be selected in groups. The organizational difficulty and the amount of work involved are far beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Fortunately, Lin Yi had set up a fan department structure in advance and had the structural foundation to hold auditions in various parts of the land of God. Otherwise, facing such an exaggerated number of applicants, he would have stopped on the spot.

Even so, it is still as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Lin Yi Group held more than a dozen emergency meetings in a row, and also asked Gu Jiumu's Gu family and Chu Hantian's Chu family to provide assistance. Only then did they finally manage to straighten out the entire process, and the audition activities in various places were finally successfully implemented.
