“There was such a rule in the past, but it wasn’t used every time. I don’t know why it’s been used again this time!”
Zhang Yiming continued in a low voice,”actually, this is not a big deal. For example, if senior brother Sima wins, one of us can get on the stage first and get the challenge quota. Then, we can admit defeat and the challenge will be completed.”
“This works too? What’s the point of that?”
!!
Ling Hanxue also came over and whispered in surprise,””The winner only needs to accept one challenge, so this kind of cheating-like method can guarantee victory, right?”
“It can’t be considered cheating. The candidates are the strongest chosen ones. How can ordinary people be a match for them? Moreover, the process of this challenge is more of a ritual, so you don’t have to pay too much attention to it!”
Zhang Yiming laughed dryly and tried his best to explain,””Ling Hanxue, you have a wind attribute physique, and your speed is extremely fast. When the time comes for you to fight for a spot, it will all depend on your performance!”
“Of course. Don’t worry, I’m not afraid of anyone when it comes to s.n.a.t.c.hing places!”
Ling Hanxue patted her chest proudly as the topic was successfully changed. She had already begun to plan the details of how to fight for a spot to go on stage.
As for Lin Yi losing, Ling Hanxue didn’t even consider it!
Zhang Yiming saw this, so he was too embarra.s.sed to explain for Ling Hanxue. There were too few people on his side, and it was hard to say whether they would win in the end …
As they were talking, Martial Master Ma signaled for Lin Yi to follow him, with AI fan already waiting for him.
The two new candidates came to the platform, and Lin Yi saw the steward walking up.
“Respected martial masters, elders, and all the junior brothers and sisters present, today is the selection battle for the steward. First, let me …”
After the eldest senior brother went up the stage, he immediately took out the most impeccable posture and began to give an endless speech.
Lin Yi was dumbfounded-what happened to the fight? Why did he have to give a speech first?
He was just the senior brother in charge of the outer sect disciples. Did he have to make it look like a presidential election in the secular world?
The most important thing was, why didn’t Yingluo tell me about this?
From time to time, the caretaker senior brother would sneak a glance at his palm. It was obvious that he was well prepared. He even had a script for his speech!
“… Everyone basically knows that the steward is in charge of all aspects of the overall operation of the outer sect disciples, especially the recommendation of listening qualifications to the inner sect. I have made quite some achievements in this area and am quite familiar with the inner sect senior brothers. As long as I can continue to be the steward of the eldest senior brother, I will definitely fight for more places to give back to the junior brothers and sisters present here in the future …”
Eldest senior brother steward had a glib tongue and promised a bunch of such benefits, which also attracted bursts of joy.
This was not only limited to his subordinates, because these benefits were indeed related to the vital interests of everyone!
After talking for a while, the eldest senior brother in charge got off the stage in satisfaction. Then, it was the second senior brother in charge’s turn to give a speech.
The two of them said the same thing. The steward second senior brother was previously in charge of the distribution of tasks and a.s.sessment rewards for the outer disciples. It was also a position with real power, so his focus was also on the tasks.
In addition to promising to find more tasks for the outer sect disciples to carry out, the steward second senior brother also said that he would discuss with the sect to increase the rewards for the outer sect disciples after completing the tasks.
This was also related to the vital interests of every outer disciple, and as expected, it received a lot of cheers!
Zhang Yiming couldn’t help but whisper,””There are only a few missions for outer disciples, and there’s no way we can get many. With so many monks and so little gruel, I’m afraid only his trusted aides have the opportunity to get a mission, right? It’s a disaster for this kind of person to be the second senior brother steward!”
This was not wrong at all. In the process of distributing the tasks, the steward’s second senior brother had intentionally or unintentionally sided with his people.
In fact, it was not that there were no complaints among the outer disciples, but it would be the same no matter who it was, so there was nothing much to say!
Because of this, Zhang Yiming’s mumbling was completely drowned out by the waves of cheers and did not attract any attention at all …
“AI fan, get ready. You’ll go up and give a speech later!”
Martial Master Ma turned his head and said in a low voice,”just tell us your advantage and let everyone know. Don’t be nervous!” Sima Yi, you should get ready too. After AI fan, it’s your turn!”
Lin Yi smiled coldly to himself-it was obvious that Master Ma was biased towards AI fan!
After all, they were compet.i.tors. What else could Lin Yi say if AI fan went up first and told him all the benefits?
Of course, the two of them would always have different ideas. People would have different att.i.tudes when running for president, let alone a mere Senior Steward.
However, Lin Yi wasn’t prepared at all, and it was hard to say how well he could perform!
AI fan answered with a smile and immediately went up to the main stage.
After a round of pleasantries, AI fan went straight to the point.”I must thank elder Qin for being able to stand here today and partic.i.p.ate in the selection of the steward’s third senior brother. If it wasn’t for his encouragement and urging, I would never have the strength and confidence to partic.i.p.ate in the selection today!”
“There have been rumors that elder Qin will take me as his personal disciple. I need to clarify that elder Qin has not taken me as his disciple yet, so this news is not accurate! It should be said that I really hope to be able to become elder Qin’s disciple, but everyone knows that elder Qin has strict requirements for accepting disciples! I’m only in the probation period, and I have a high chance of becoming elder Qin’s disciple. That’s all, so please don’t misunderstand!”
On the surface, AI fan was clearing up the rumors. At the same time, he was expressing to elder Qin that he could no longer use his ident.i.ty as elder Qin’s disciple to speak about things because he had been beaten last night.
But in reality, the effect of AI fan’s words was not much different from directly saying that he had become elder Qin’s disciple!
With such a relations.h.i.+p, when the audience voted, they would naturally know what to choose.
Moreover, elder Qin could not find fault with him when he said that.ai fan could totally say that he just wanted to explain the rumors in the past!
Lin Yi’s lips twitched a little.ai fan was really good at scheming. He wondered what elder Qin would think.
Elder Qin was present for today’s selection as well, and Lin Yi noticed that the old man’s face was expressionless. It was clear that he wasn’t in a good mood.
Perhaps AI fan’s little tricks would not win elder Qin’s favor. In order to get some votes, he had forgotten his roots. Perhaps this was the so-called “being too smart for your own good”?
