He was actually put into a group with the person who claimed to advance to the golden elixir. Lin Haoming remembered that this person was called Gou Cheng. Deng Zhuoan didn't think very well of him. Although he was at the peak of the late stage of foundation building, he was a helper, but there were some things he did.
He is sharp and can bully others, but other than him, there are no late-stage ones, and there are two early-stage ones, so they are really weak.
Nine years have passed, and most of the people are in the middle stage of cultivation. The number of people in the early stages of cultivation has been less than a hundred, and many of them have been eliminated for the first time.
Gou Cheng was a late-stage peak cultivator. He glanced at several people and directly took the initiative: "My name is Gou Cheng. I think you have all heard of it. The strength of our group is really average. You didn't do it last time because you built the foundation by yourself."
Participating in the assessment, right? And you, I didn’t seem to see you last time, you were just in the middle stage last time, right?” Finally, he also looked at Lin Haoming.
Gou Cheng is indeed well-known among this group of people. He reached his peak at the age of forty. Now he is forty-eight. Although he has not made a breakthrough yet, his strength is considered one of the best.
"Brother Gou, if you have anything to say, just say it and don't bury us. You are just giving us a few years. This little brother can build the foundation on his own. I couldn't do it at the beginning. It shows that it is extraordinary. And this brother
, being able to leap to a middle level on your own is considered very rare, and they are all the pride of heaven." At this time, another mid-level foundation-building monk spoke before he could finish.
Gou Cheng obviously frowned because of this.
Lin Haoming felt that this person was quite thoughtful. He managed to pull the others into a group with just a few words. However, the next task was not easy to complete if the two major forces were divided.
"I think everyone should introduce themselves first. I am Lin Haoming, a person from Lei Yuan Continent." Lin Haoming took the initiative.
"Fang Xinghui, Tianchen Islands." The young man who built the foundation on his own took the initiative to speak.
"Wen Changling, I am also from Tianchen Islands." Another early stage monk also spoke.
"I am He Changli, a man from Fengli Mainland. I have met all of you brothers." Finally, the mid-term monk who dared to confront Gou Cheng also spoke.
Gou Cheng saw He Changli taking the initiative and couldn't help but sneer and said: "Now, when are you being polite? We don't have much time. I have the highest cultivation level here. If you act in a while, you will listen to me."
"Gou Cheng, your Excellency is indeed the strongest, but the last mission obviously does not require your strength. It requires your cooperation. Half of the team was destroyed, but there were two in the late stage of foundation building. It was because they were fighting each other and did not cooperate with each other. In the end, it resulted in
A few of the weak ones have died, and the remaining ones who survived have all been eliminated. You don’t want to be eliminated, right? Or maybe you think you can do it alone, then I have nothing to say.” Not only did He Changli not listen,
, instead threatened Gou Cheng.
Gou Cheng is not easy to handle. "Hey!" He sneered and said: "I can definitely survive alone. Are the four of you sure that we can all survive in danger? There are no magic weapons, no talismans, and even recovery.
There are no elixirs. At most, a few Yuan Stones are left to replenish the mana. Without external force, the gap between cultivation levels is far greater than you think. Can the four of you defeat me together?"
Seeing this, the two sides started fighting, and Lin Haoming couldn't help but frown. Gou Cheng obviously wanted to rely on his cultivation to take the lead, but He Changli didn't want to. How could he end up getting involved with them?
This will definitely not work. Lin Haoming took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Okay, the two of you are fighting for the initiative, which is nothing more than the distribution of the final rewards. But to get the rewards, you have to pass the test first. I don't want to even pass the test in the end."
If not, everyone will discuss the decision and finally vote.
As for the distribution, 60% will be distributed equally to everyone, and the remaining 40% will be divided according to the amount of contribution." "Haha, Brother Lin, this distribution is reasonable, I agree." Gou Cheng naturally felt that he must have contributed the most.
After that, I was quite satisfied, at least I could accept it.
"Brother Lin, maybe we won't suffer too much if we do this, but..."
"Brother He, what do you want to say? If Brother He thinks that he can complete the task without Brother Gou, I can also help you. However, our group obviously cannot do without Brother Gou's strength. The two brothers from Tianchen Islands should understand.
, so let’s do it this way.” Lin Haoming decided.
"Okay!" He Changli found that as Lin Haoming made his words clear and he didn't help him at all, there was nothing he could do. Especially since Lin Haoming made it so clear, it was true that the other two people had no intention of joining him.
It would be a fool's errand to remain ignorant.
Lin Haoming also knew that for this matter, he might have made friends with Gou Cheng, but he offended He Changli, who was very scheming. Maybe he should be more cautious in the future. If he dared to take the initiative to trouble him, he would not be polite.
, of course, in the current situation, he probably won’t be able to make trouble if he wants to, and he is also a smart person. If he deliberately makes trouble for others, he will be regarded as narrow-minded, and he may be eliminated because of this.
The small group was temporarily settled in this way. At the same time, in one of the few pavilions in the city, Mrs. Lu Xian, who had been there before, was holding the cat and looking at the people on the beach with another beautiful woman.
, and Mrs. Lu, as the concubine of the general manager, is standing behind the beautiful woman at the moment, obviously in a completely subordinate position, and the beautiful woman's cultivation is only in the middle stage of refining the void, and is obviously not as good as Mrs. Lu.
At this moment, the beautiful woman seemed to have had enough, and sat aside to think deeply.
Lu Xian smiled and said, "What do you think of this group of people, Mrs. Yan?"
The beautiful woman is none other than Mrs. Yan, one of the three wives of the young master, and the biological mother of the young master. As a close servant who wants to choose a child for her, she came here specially to walk around today. Now that she heard Lu Xian's inquiry, she also
He said casually: "It's just so-so, a few of them are okay, but most of them are just greedy for profit."
"Everyone has desires. If you don't have desires, can you really become an immortal? Besides, immortals don't have desires?" Lu Xian said with profound meaning.
Mrs. Yan shook her head and said: "It's normal to have desires, but you also have to be able to restrain yourself and have an overall view. Except for a few, it's a bit cunning to resort to tricks for the sake of the immediate situation. Sister Lu, I'm asking you this time.
When I personally select people, I also want to find a few talents who can really help my children. The cultivation qualifications are second, and temperament and xinxing are the most important."
"I understand what Mrs. Yan means. I will change the method for the next assessment." Mrs. Lu said.
"I can't refuse the valets recommended by the island, but for the valets recruited from outside, Sister Lu, you have to be more responsible." Mrs. Yan warned again.
