School flower's personal master

Chapter 12778

"..."

Ye Feng's expression was slightly unnatural.

Lin Yi was never his first choice from the beginning. If he hadn't lost the bet to the old beggar and couldn't go back on his word, he would never have let Lin Yi pass.

Ye Feng's lips curled into a half-smile as he said, "It barely passed, but we still need to go through some procedures."

Barely passed?

Lin Yi analyzed the other party's fleeting micro-expressions, his gaze becoming increasingly strange.

Given the stringent standards of the Academy of Divine Religion, passing is already a stroke of luck; the word "barely" only makes it seem like an attempt to cover up the truth.

Is it because he doesn't want to be too proud, so he deliberately suppresses his pride?

Or is there something wrong with the fact that it barely passed?

"So what do I need to do next?"

Lin Yi asked calmly.

“Indeed, there are some things that require your cooperation. The threshold of my God Academy is not so easy to cross.”

Ye Feng suddenly changed the subject: "Who are you going to give the vacant three-zhang Dharma Avatar slot to?"

Lin Yi looked astonished: "Does this have anything to do with the censorship of the Main God Academy?"

"It can be related or unrelated, depending on how you interpret it."

Ye Feng kept everyone in suspense, a meaningful statement.

Lin Yi reacted instantly.

Is the other party using the guise of investigation to try and extort money from us?

To be honest, the number of places for the Three-Zhang Dharma Image may not seem high, but it's a tempting prize that even the people from the Main God Academy can't resist.

The recipient may not need it, but if used as a favor, it carries significant weight.

Lin Yi shrugged and said, "This is a matter for the Xuanwu Divine Assembly. I have no right to interfere. Whoever can snatch it can have it. As long as it is a master from Tianjun, I will be happy to see it happen."

"You're not being honest."

Ye Feng chuckled and leaned back: "With your connections in the Xuanwu Divine Society, how could something like this not be possible without any effort?"

"This spot for the three-zhang-tall Dharma statue is said to be open to competition, but whoever manages it well gets it."

"You have a lot to say on this matter. Are you going to give it to Zhou Yuan or Long Juefeng?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it's Zhou Yuan."

These words startled even Lin Yi.

As an examiner of the main academy, the other party must have a thorough understanding of the intelligence in Tianjun, especially the relevant information about him, the person being examined.

But guessing something is one thing, but pointing it out to your face is another.

If Lin Yi were even slightly more suspicious, he would have suspected Zhou Yuan and Long Juefeng by now.

Lin Yi said noncommittally, "Please feel free to speak your mind."

Ye Feng's eyes lit up, and his tone became more sincere: "Once you pass this review, as long as you pass the next test, you can go to the Main God Academy."

"At that time, you will need a capable assistant to manage Tianjun."

“I have a ready-made candidate. He is at the peak of the Four-Zhang Dharma Aspect, a very reliable person, and his abilities are quite good. You can rest assured that he will help you guard the house.”

Seeing that Lin Yi remained silent, Ye Feng continued to offer empty promises: "Once you enter the Main God Academy, you'll share the same fate as me, the examiner, and we'll be on the same side."

"No matter what happens to you in the academy, just come to me. Whether it's resources, connections, or intelligence, I will not treat you unfairly."

He paused, then added, "I never mistreat my own people."

After saying that, he looked at Lin Yi meaningfully.

The implication is that it all depends on whether Lin Yi is willing to be one of us!

Their eyes met, and thoughts raced through Lin Yi's mind.

Is this using the review results as leverage to exchange for a spot in the Three-Zhang Dharma Image?

On paper, if a three-zhang (approximately 10 meters) Dharma form spot could truly guarantee entry into the Main Divine Academy, it would be a sure-fire win.

The problem is that the other party is just an examiner, who can only decide on the preliminary review at most. Can they get involved afterward?

However, Lin Yi did not deny it outright, but asked calmly, "Who is it?"

Ye Feng waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly: "The person is still out of town, but we will arrange for you to meet soon."

Watching Ye Feng leave with satisfaction, Lin Yi remained seated, tapping his fingers lightly twice on the table.

Zhang Baiyu quickly appeared from the side.

"The master is looking for me?"

Lin Yi nodded and recounted Ye Feng's visit, from the other party introducing himself to demanding a spot for the Three-Zhang Dharma Image, and then making empty promises, without missing a single word.

After listening, Zhang Baiyu remained silent for a moment before saying, "This person has some issues."

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "You think his identity as an inspector is fake?"

"It's hard to say whether it's true or false."

Zhang Baiyu shook his head: "But if it's true, how can an inspector so blatantly demand benefits from the target of the inspection? Is the supervision of the Main God Academy in this regard just for show?"

"Although people's hearts are hard to fathom, no matter how powerful a force is, it is inevitable that there are unspoken rules."

"But the higher the level of the power, the stricter the oversight will be. The main god academy is above the other god academies, so the rules will only be stricter, not looser."

"Even if someone is trying to pull some dirty tricks, it's not as low-level as this, and their behavior is so ugly."

Lin Yi seemed to be deep in thought: "Go on."

Zhang Baiyu pondered and analyzed, "There are two possibilities: either he's a complete fraudster, or he's just plain stupid."

He looked at Lin Yi, then changed the subject: "But with your current strength and status, ordinary swindlers wouldn't dare to do that."

Lin Yi nodded.

There are indeed unfathomable mysteries about the other party, which even the will of the world cannot see through; this cannot be faked.

Zhang Baiyu said, "Then there's only the second possibility. Even the most unfathomable masters can make foolish mistakes, but..."

"The more likely explanation is that someone is sabotaging it."

Lin Yi's brows twitched slightly: "Who do you think it could be?"

Zhang Baiyu's gaze was deep and unfathomable: "Di Qingfan."

"you saw it?"

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched.

During this period, one of the most important tasks he assigned to Zhang Baiyu was to keep an eye on this Emperor Jiyi.

"So far, no connection has been found between them."

Zhang Baiyu paused and said, "But with their strength, it wouldn't be difficult for them to make any contact without our knowledge or notice."

"I'm just speculating. If you want to make someone of such a high level lose their mind, then looking at the entire Tianjun, this Emperor Jiyi is the most suspicious one."

Lin Yi deeply agreed.

Although Di Qingfan did not personally participate in the previous events, deducing from various clues, it is certain that this person has made many underhanded moves.

Ultimate Skill is naturally designed to manipulate the consciousness of others.

Given Lin Yi's mastery of the Ultimate Intent Technique, he could easily mislead his opponent in a short period of time if he wanted to, let alone the creator of the Ultimate Intent Technique.

Zhang Baiyu continued, "In the long run, a recommendation spot from the Main God Academy is much more valuable than a three-zhang Dharma Aspect spot."

"If I were the Great Emperor of Ultimate Intent, I would never have remained indifferent given this opportunity." (End of Chapter)
