In the square, Xiao Xifeng slowly walked off amid the regrets and ridicules of the disciples, while Bu Hongyi was helped down by other female disciples because she was injured.
This competition, which was considered extremely exciting among the outer disciples, was finally over.
Immediately, Elder Yuan Bi once again announced the list of disciples for the next competition, and the subsequent competitions continued.
Off the field, Xiao Zhang clapped his fingers and asked, "Lin Jin, it seems your conclusion is correct."
Lin Jin tilted his head and pursed his lips: "I think it is understandable that he lost. How can a person who despises his enemies be invincible? Besides, that Bu Hongyi is a master in the late stage of extradition.
It is not impossible for the weak to defeat the strong in this way."
Xiao Zhang exclaimed: "Oh, that's not bad, it's awesome... the analysis makes sense."
At ten o'clock in the afternoon, due to the time limit of the competition, the subsequent competitions were basically quick wins, and there were only two or three exciting competitions. At this time, the inner door competition process had entered the second half.
Xiao Zhang also defeated his opponent in the first half of the competition and successfully entered the ranks of inner disciples.
At this time, all the disciples were already a little impatient. Watching a competition without much interest was a waste of time. It would be better to seize the time and practice alone.
Even among the many elders at the elders' table, only Liu Fang and Cai Tian were left. Many disciples knew that Elder Cai Tian did not leave because there was another disciple of his who had not yet competed, but Liu Fang stayed there and let him go.
The disciples began to speculate.
"Elder Liu still has the patience to continue reading? He is worthy of being an authority among many elders."
"I think it's possible that he, like Elder Cai, wants to watch a certain disciple's competition before leaving, but I don't know which one."
"Well, it seems that Elder Liu is waiting for a certain disciple to appear."
In the crowd, Xiao Zhang looked around and said to himself: "Why hasn't this kid come back yet? Isn't he just going out to get some air?"
Finally, when he saw Lin Jin coming back slowly, he asked, "Where have you been? You didn't even come to cheer me on in my competition?"
Lin Jin laughed sheepishly and said, "I just took a breather in the back mountain. There are many people here and it's a bit boring. How was your competition, Senior Brother Xiao?"
"I just know it now. Of course I passed it easily. Fortunately, you came back in time. You will be the one to play after this competition."
"So soon? Then I have to prepare well."
The competition in the square ended quickly. After the two disciples left the field, Elder Yuan Bi reminded the remaining four disciples in the center of the square.
"There are still two final competitions. I hope the remaining four disciples will work hard to get the quota of inner disciples."
After hearing what Elder Yuan Bi said, many of the disciples watching the competition began to brace themselves and prepare to watch the last two competitions.
"The nineteenth match of the inner sect selection competition, Lin Jin vs. Liu Ling."
In the distance, Lin Jin swallowed his saliva and looked at the person on the opposite side. Lin Jin was in a daze for a moment, even speechless.
Although he already knew who his opponent was, he was still a little unwilling to face Liu Ling.
Lin Jin's opponent was the female disciple who originally sold him the Tianzhen Calculation! Because they only met once, Lin Jin didn't keep it in mind, and felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about it before.
Xiao Zhang next to him pushed Lin Jin and asked, "Don't you dare to go on stage just because you see a little beauty?"
Lin Jin reluctantly stepped onto the stage. Xiao Zhang looked at Lin Jin's back and muttered to himself: "What did this kid do? Do you know that female disciple?"
Liu Ling, who was opposite him, was still handsome and charming. When he saw Lin Jin slowly coming on the stage, he still remembered Lin Jin and said with a smile: "Long time no see."
"Well... long time no see."
Lin Jin was a little annoyed. When did he become so timid? Didn't he just promise not to attack her?
But thinking about it, I attach great importance to promises, which has something to do with Lin Jin's love for face...
Cursing himself for being stupid, Lin Jin said nothing.
But what was supposed to come would still come. Liu Ling blinked and said, "Although I don't want to play the emotional card, I still hope you will be merciful."
Lin Jin ignored Liu Ling at all. A strong ideological conflict was going on in his mind at this time. Should he fight for promotion or not fight for the original promise?
Seeing that Lin Jin seemed to be thinking about something, Liu Ling said with some displeasure: "Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, you can't ignore me like this..."
Unexpectedly, Lin Jin suddenly interrupted Liu Ling, as if he had made up his mind, and asked: "Do you really hope to become an inner disciple?"
The incomprehensible question made Liu Ling a little stunned. He didn't know why Lin Jin asked this, but he still replied: "Well, as long as you enter the cultivation sect, you naturally hope to join the ranks of the inner disciples. But since we are friends, don't treat me
As long as the beating is severe, I don't want anyone to help me down."
At the elders' table in the distance, the two remaining elders looked at Lin Jin on the field with curiosity like many disciples, wondering what Lin Jin was going to do.
After listening to Liu Ling's words, Lin Jin was even more speechless. Do you regard me as a friend?
So how can I take action since we are friends, and I have made a promise to her, even though it is a joke, well, isn't this forcing me?
I got an x!
Lin Jin took a breath and then said something that shocked everyone again.
"Then...I abstain."
After speaking, Lin turned around and left without paying attention to other people's reactions.
Now everyone began to discuss heatedly again, and all eyes were focused on Lin Jin for a while, as if they were looking at a monster.
"He abstained? Doesn't he know the rules of the competition?"
"Maybe he has fallen in love with that girl, but isn't the price too high to give up the opportunity to become an inner disciple?"
"He seems to be the disciple who unleashes his spiritual power, right?"
Liu Ling did not react for a moment on the court, and was extremely confused in his heart. Why did he abstain? Could it be...
"Lin Jin abstained, Liu Ling was directly promoted to inner disciple, and the twentieth competition was between Lianyun and Zhong Rong."
Elder Yuan Bi's words brought Liu Ling back from her thoughts and she hurriedly left the venue. She wanted to ask Lin Jin for clarification.
At the elders' table, Liu Fang frowned when he saw Lin Jin abstaining, but he did not forget to mock Cai Tian: "I wonder if your unlucky disciple can survive two competitions."
"you……"
As soon as Lin Jin came off the field, he passed by Lian Yun who was about to come on.
At this time, Lian Yun felt extremely unhappy. He had just found out that his opponent Zhong Rong was just a disciple with an average cultivation level.
He originally thought that as long as he defeated him, he would be able to go smoothly and be promoted to the inner disciples openly. Unexpectedly, Lin Jin abstained and there would be a competition later, which made Lian Yun want to tear Lin Jin apart.
"Hmph, you can do it, kid! Let's see if I don't deal with you later, huh!" Lian Yun said softly when the two of them brushed shoulders.
Lin Jin was too lazy to explain, and he didn't want to explain. He would wait until he saw the real seal on his palm.
Returning to the rest area, Xiao Zhang rushed up with a "whoosh" sound, resisting the urge to curse.
"You...I said you have a brain problem, right? Abstaining? Ah? Who are you, that woman?"
Lin Jin also knew that Xiao Zhang was concerned about him and hurriedly asked Xiao Zhang to calm down.
"Okay, okay, Senior Brother Xiao, I know you are doing it for my own good, but there is a reason why I abstained."
Xiao Zhang was about to speak, but unexpectedly a person appeared from the crowd, it was Liu Ling!
Seeing that Xiao Zhang was silent, Lin Jin turned around and saw Liu Ling standing in front of him. He looked at Xiao Zhang and said, "Liu Ling, congratulations on becoming an inner disciple!"
But Liu Ling didn't appreciate it, her pleasant temperament suddenly disappeared, and she turned to ask with an unhappy expression: "Are you looking down on me?"
Lin Jin was stunned for a moment. Knowing what she meant, he asked, "Do you think you can beat me?"
Seeing Liu Ling shaking his head, Lin Jin said again: "That's alright, I abstain from letting you become an inner disciple directly not just because your cultivation level is a little worse than mine, but because I promised you not to take action against you, even if I
The joke has gone too far."
After hearing this, Liu Ling didn't know what to say. It took her a long time to say something: "Is it because of that joke-like promise?"
"I, Lin Jin, attach great importance to promises. Whether others promise me to complete things or not is other people's business, but I will definitely keep in mind what I have promised myself, and I will work hard to complete it if my ability allows it!
