Beauty and the Bodyguard

If the eldest lady goes back and turns a deaf ear in front of Shangguan Tianhua and leaves a bad impression in the mind of the master of Chongtian Pavilion, even if he is a high-ranking elder, he will be beaten to dust sooner or later. After all, there are no longer just one or two elders who fell under Shangguan Tianhua’s iron fist before.

Xu Lingchong was speechless now. Even if he were in the position of the bald elder, he would probably do the same thing.

In fact, looking back at it at this moment, he was actually a little glad that the bald elder did not award the first place to Meng Tong. If this caused him to leave a bad impression in Shangguan Laner's mind, then he would have really suffered a big loss.

In contrast, Lin Yi was lucky enough to get the first place in such a trial. Apart from a little trouble in terms of face, there was no real loss at all for him and it was insignificant.

Since even Xu Lingchong didn't speak, other little people like Meng Jueguang naturally didn't dare to say anything. They could only watch Lin Yi receive the reward for first place in the trial.

"Guys, I accept it." Lin Yi smiled faintly, and deliberately waved the bag of ten pieces of spiritual jade as an extra reward in front of a few people.

"Tch, you are really a villain." Meng Tong curled his lips with an extremely ugly expression. He felt as if he had eaten hundreds of flies. He was extremely disgusting but could only pinch his nose and swallow.

Although Meng Jueguang had the same gloomy face on the side, his eyes lit up after seeing Lin Yi's bag of spiritual jade, and he whispered: "It's okay, let him be proud for a while, then go back and make some scrap jade, then A bag of good jade will belong to us sooner or later."

"Ninth Cousin is brilliant!" Meng Tong felt much more balanced for a moment, and he gritted his teeth and said: "When one day this boy finds out that all the spiritual jade he saved are waste jade, I want to see what he will do then. What an expression!"

"It goes without saying that I will definitely cry until I die." Meng Jueguang smiled coldly: "Maybe the blow was too big and the heart may fall off."

Even if an ordinary person is exchanged for a piece of good jade with scrap jade, he will feel distressed for at least half a day. For someone like Lin Yi, who is exchanged for dozens or even dozens of pieces of jade in a row, when he realizes it later, his heart will hurt. There needs to be blood.

The newbie trial finally came to an end with this dramatic transformation.

Lin Yi was first, Xiao Ran was third, and Qiao Hongcai was fourth. Although he didn't finish in the top three in the end, compared to the dismal results of the newcomers who joined Meng Jueguang's command, this was already a great harvest.

There are a total of twelve newcomers under Meng Jueguang. Except for Meng Tong who won second place and finally got a Foundation-Building Pill to express consolation, the others were just soy sauce. Compared with the key to the Foundation-Building Pill, As a reward, the three pieces of spiritual jade that were given to them were not even a consolation prize.

What's even worse than this is that five of the twelve people didn't even get the consolation prize of three pieces of spiritual jade. Not to mention that they didn't get any benefits, they fell to the top ten in the first trial. Being on the blacklist makes me want to cry without tears.

For a moment, all the newcomers looked at Meng Jueguang with extremely resentful eyes. They originally joined Meng Jueguang's plan because they could get more benefits, but now it's better. They didn't get any benefits at all. Instead, they took their own bright future into it. It's really a scam. !

"Are you people all trash? There are only three of you, Lin Yi, and twelve of you can't get it done together? You actually have the nerve to complain to me? You're just complaining!" After returning from the Back Mountain Palace, Meng Jueguang put his hands on The newcomers called together and couldn't help but roared.

He had expected that banning Lin Yi and the others this time was a sure thing. After all, no matter what, they were all masters of the same level. It was unreasonable that twelve people could fail to deal with three people together.

All the newcomers looked at Meng Tong, and Meng Tong had to stand up and explain: "Ninth cousin, originally the plan went very smoothly, but then something happened, which directly disrupted our entire plan. This is really unacceptable. It’s our fault for not paying attention.”

"Don't blame you for not being careful? Well, tell me what accident happened in the middle that allowed them to reverse such a huge disadvantage!" Meng Jueguang said angrily.

"Ninth Cousin, you probably didn't realize it before, but Lin Yi is already a master at the early stage of foundation building." Meng Tong glanced at Meng Jueguang with a wry smile.

"What? A master in the early stage of foundation building?" Meng Jueguang originally thought that Meng Tong would come up with some far-fetched reason. After hearing this, he was shocked and looked around everyone present in disbelief: "Isn't it possible? All of you Everyone saw it?”

Everyone nodded in unison, and Meng Tong said with a bitter look on his face: "I saw with my own eyes that we had surrounded him and were about to be done, but he was not afraid of us at all, and showed off the aura of a master in the early stage of foundation building. It shocked all of us on the spot.”

The newcomers looked at Meng Tong with strange expressions. It was true that they were all frightened at that time, but if Meng Tong hadn't escaped first and caused panic, the situation would not have been completely controlled by Lin Yi alone.

After all, there were twelve of them, but Lin Yi still had two exhausted burdens, Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai. If they really wanted to take action at that time, it was still a matter of who would win in the end.

However, Meng Tong himself would obviously not say anything about such an embarrassing thing. If he didn't say it himself, it would be hard for others present to say anything else. Otherwise, he would be offended and he would definitely be punished in the future.

Seeing everyone speaking in unison, Meng Jueguang couldn't believe it anymore: "So Lin Yi has really broken through to the early stage of foundation building? But judging from his aura just now, it doesn't look like it. Compared with you Heaven-level Dzogchen There’s no difference! Have you really confirmed it with him?”

"Well, that's not the case. When we saw that the situation was not going well, we dispersed on the spot." Meng Tong replied awkwardly.

"Didn't take action?" Meng Jueguang was stunned and thought thoughtfully: "In other words, you were just frightened by his momentum?"

Everyone looked at each other and finally nodded. Although it was embarrassing to say this, they were really frightened and collapsed by Lin Yi's momentum at that time.

"That's right, you must have seen it wrong at the time!"

Meng Jueguang suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Do you know that there is a kind of elixir called the Ultimate Golden Elixir? Once taken, it can instantly stimulate far beyond ordinary strength. Even a heaven-level Dzogchen master can also show the strength of an early-stage foundation-building master." It’s so powerful, but this effect only lasts for a very short time! I speculate that this guy must have given him an ultimate golden elixir in advance, so you were intimidated by him!”
