Chapter 5213 5211-Draw
Even if they couldn't win him over directly, they had to at least build a good relationship with him first. They couldn't become enemies, or Lin Yi would spread the sect's counter-attack tactics out of anger-that'd be a big joke.
Lin Yi quickly realized what they were thinking. He never wanted to make a big deal out of this, but it wasn't a bad thing.
"Since the results are out, then let's end it here. Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu, you two can leave the stage and focus on recuperating. Don't leave behind any residual effects." Xin Yijie said.
"Hold on, I don't think this vote is fair, so it can't count." Xue Jianfeng once again jumped out to object.
"Oh? Everyone is voting on the spot, and there is no chance of secret communication. This old man would like to ask, how is it unfair?" Xin Yijie said with a frown.
"I think at the level of the voters, not all of them can understand the meaning of this duel. How can a group of people who can't even understand the meaning be the judges? In order to ensure the fairness of the result, I suggest that we follow the consistent tradition of the ancient Alliance and let the Jindan experts vote. " Xue Jianfeng said unscrupulously.
As soon as he said this, everyone's face turned uglier and uglier. He actually said to their face that their level was not high enough. This guy was really looking down on them!
However, Xue Jianfeng's words were not without basis. In the past, every competition of the immemorial Alliance was indeed judged by golden core stage experts. Only they had enough eyesight to see through the full implications of a duel between Foundation establishment disciples. Otherwise, just as Xue Jianfeng had said, ordinary perfected Foundation establishment experts might not be able to understand what Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu were doing.
However, if the decision was to be made by the Golden core stage experts as he had said, then there were only three people present-him, Bing Wuqing, and Xin Yijie. As long as there were no accidents, Bing Wuqing would definitely be on his side. Wouldn't that mean that he would have the final say?
"You're being unreasonable. Even if a Jindan stage expert is to be the judge, he must be from a different sect. Where is that condition now?" Xin Yijie refuted on the spot and then said determinedly,""It's hard to disobey the crowd's will. This old man will announce the winner of this duel is ..."
Lin Yi suddenly interrupted,"Since both sides are equally matched, how about we call it a draw?
"A draw?" Xin Yijie was taken aback.""But there has never been a tie before. Furthermore, this match is directly related to the qualification to enter the primordial age ..."
"Can't we let both of them obtain the qualifications for the trial at the same time? Even though this is an exception, I don't think the higher-ups of the archaic Alliance would be so unreasonable. After all, these are two rare genius disciples, and it would be a pity if either of them were eliminated. " Lin Yi said.
Duanmu Yu's test had nothing to do with Lin Yi at all, but after watching the fight, he was moved by the woman's determination. Besides, he was very interested in the skill as well-it wasn't mentioned in the Sky Class island's practitioner's Arts Collection that Tian Gang sent him. He might as well do her a favor-maybe he'd have a chance to get more information from her later.
Xin Yijie pondered for a moment before finally nodding.""That's right, martial granduncle's words are reasonable. Rules are dead, but people are alive. For this duel, Duanmu Yu even used "withered leaves return to spring." If you still want to force her to lose, that would be too unreasonable. Since that's the case, this old man will declare the two of them to be even!"
The others didn't have any objections to this result. First, they were doing Lin Yi a favor, and second, this result didn't affect them at all. At most, Duanmu Yu would get into the test, and he'd just used the skill-he wouldn't be able to recover within three months. Even if he did get into the test, it would only be a symbolic meaning.
"Hold on!" Xue Jianfeng jumped out again and interrupted.
"What do you want?" After being rudely interrupted by this fellow time and time again, the honest Xin Yijie finally got angry. With an unfriendly expression, he said,"According to the voting results, coold was clearly the winner. Announcing a draw is already giving you face. Xue Jianfeng, don't push your luck!"
"This ..." Xue Jianfeng choked. At this moment, he actually felt an unprecedented substantial killing intent from the other party. It was indeed terrifying when an honest man got angry.
After a moment of silence, Xue Jianfeng finally decided to keep his mouth shut. Right now, it wasn't just the honest Xin Yijie who was angry. Everyone else was also staring at him with unfriendly expressions. If he continued like this, he would definitely incur the wrath of the masses. There was no need to do this over such a small matter.
As such, the opening battle of the trial competition's fifth round ended in a draw. Leng Leng and Duanmu Yu both obtained the right to participate in the archaic trials.
Duanmu Yu was panting heavily as he raised his head to look at Lin Yi,"Thank you ..."
She knew that if it wasn't for Lin Yi's insistence, this would be Leng Leng's victory, and she'd be eliminated on the spot. Losing the test wasn't a big deal, but it would affect the reputation of the spirit leaf sect-that was why she was so grateful.
"You're welcome," Lin Yi said as he looked at her. Not only was she very weak, but she was also suffering from severe frostbite from the intense fight with Leng Leng. She was too close to Leng Leng when the ice prison mirror broke."If you don't mind, how about I help you heal? I think it's hard for you to recover in your current state, right?"
"But ..." Duanmu Yu was a little hesitant. She had already entered the weak phase of 'returning to spring', and the Zhen Qi in her body was extremely weak. Who knew how long it would take for her to completely rely on self-healing? moreover, the degree of frostbite caused by the shattering of the ice prison mirror was not something that could be recovered easily unless she had a special medicinal pill in this area.
"I'm going to treat Leng Leng's injuries anyway. If you don't mind, you can come along. It's no trouble at all. " Lin Yi said with a smile.
Duanmu Yu hesitated for a moment before he finally nodded."Alright, then I'll have to trouble you,"
With her status and background in spirit leaf sect, the higher-ups of the sect would definitely think of a way if she made a request. However, she was in such a weak state that she couldn't even take the pill. If she wasn't careful, the life-saving pill might turn into a fatal poison. Rather than that, she might as well take the risk and trust Lin Yi this once.
She didn't know Lin Yi at all, but perhaps it was because of all the mysterious things he'd done before, she had some confidence in him. If Lin Yi didn't have the ability to heal people, he wouldn't have made this kind of invitation, would he? (To be continued.)
