Chapter 7271
7271 I choose the North Peak!
If you didn’t have that intention, why would your subordinates be so happy? Who are you trying to fool?
“That’s good! However, your results are indeed not bad. Other than Sima Yi, no one can compare to you, so you will still receive some special treatment!”
Martial Master Ma’s tone relaxed, and AI fan finally felt much more comfortable after hearing that.
As they were talking, the eldest senior brother in charge took out a map and unfurled it, hanging it on the wall.
“Next, it’s time for you to choose your residence. Look at this map, it’s the north and south sides of our long whisker peak!”
Martial Master Ma came to the map and patted it with his palm.”According to your ranking in the dense forest assessment, you can choose the residence you want!”
After the spoils of war were collected, the rankings were immediately announced.
Lin Yi, the newly promoted third senior, was first, of course, followed by AI fan.
Next was Ling Hanxue, Jin Yuan Bao, Chen Zhisheng, and the others who had tokens. Because Lin Yi’s ranking was the highest, Ling Hanxue and the others who were with him also benefited, choosing after AI fan.
“Before I choose, I’ll explain that the long whisker peak is divided into the north and south. The South Peak faces the sun, so it’s good for tempering the body. The North Peak faces the sun, so it’s not good for cultivation. Some people even feel that it’s an obstacle, so most people choose the South Peak!”
Martial Master Ma drew a circle on the map and said,””Did you see that? those with colored markings mean that they are occupied. You can’t choose any of them. As for the empty residences, there are only the ones in the worst positions!”
Lin Yi followed his finger-there were only a few empty spots near the foot of the mountain, the ones above were all occupied.
Martial Master Ma didn’t say anything, but Lin Yi could already tell that the higher one went, the higher the standard, and the better the effects.
Lin Yi wasn’t sure how much sunlight could help with body training, but the sword spring sect’s words made sense, didn’t they?
“Compared to the South Peak, there are very few people who choose the North Peak. Look, more than 70% of the peaks are empty. You can choose as you wish!”
Martial Master Ma’s finger moved to the North Peak. Sure enough, there was a large area of blank marks, and he could choose whatever he wanted!
The problem was, why would most people choose the worst position in the South Peak over the best position in the North Peak? Was there really a huge difference between them?
Those who had such thoughts immediately turned their eyes to the South Peak. The few empty spots had already become the targets of their struggle!
Lin Yi, on the other hand, was very interested in the North Peak. He wasn’t a pure body practitioner, and he only stayed on the sub Island because he had no other choice. The difference between the north and south Peak didn’t matter at all!
Compared to the South Peak, Lin Yi was more inclined to choose the North Peak since he had many secrets to keep.
“Sima Yi, you’re ranked first, so you have the priority to choose. Come here!”
Martial Master Ma waved at Lin Yi after his explanation,”Let me see, which one do you want to choose?”
Lin Yi’s display of strength and ability was very important to Martial Master Ma, and he was willing to give Lin Yi some hints within his scope of authority.
It wasn’t impossible for Lin Yi to have a better location in the South Peak-Martial Master Ma had already decided that he’d find a decent place for Lin Yi to live in after they returned!
This kind of investment was profitable. If there were gains in the future, it would naturally be an unexpected joy. It didn’t matter if there were no gains. At most, there would be a little more trouble.
“Martial Master Ma, I think the North Peak isn’t too bad. It’s not too shady at the top, right? That’s why I want to choose my residence at the North Peak!”
Lin Yi walked over to Wushi Ma’s side and saw the latter’s shocked expression.
He went straight to the North Peak?
“Sima Yi, what you said makes sense, but the North Peak can’t be compared to the South Peak. You don’t have to be in a hurry to make a decision! Think about it!”
Martial Master Ma was just short of directly saying that the North Peak wasn’t good enough and that it was better for him to cultivate in the South Peak!
Unfortunately, he couldn’t say this out loud. Therefore, Martial Master Ma thought that this was all he could do for him, and that he would leave the rest to him!
Lin Yi, of course, decided on what to do. He wanted to pick the best house at the top, but there was already a color mark on the top of the map. It was obvious that someone had gotten there before him!
“Martial Master Ma, I’ll choose this!”
Lin Yi pointed at the second best house on the North Peak and smiled.”I think this place is not bad, is there a problem?”
“Are you sure?”
Martial Master Ma slightly frowned, but there weren’t many other emotions in his expression.”Although this is the second best spot on the North Peak, it might not be suitable for you to cultivate!”
He really did like Lin Yi a little, so he was giving his last words of advice.
Even if Lin Yi only picked the worst location in the South Peak, he’d still try his best to get a better place in the future.
But if Lin Yi decided on the North Peak, it would be hard to get the South Peak in the future!
“I’m sure! Thank you for your concern, Martial Master Ma!”
Lin Yi insisted. He didn’t forget to explain,”Actually, the cultivation technique I’m cultivating is a little special. Perhaps the North Peak is more suitable for me!”
Martial Master Ma didn’t think that it was the truth-he thought that Lin Yi was just making an excuse.
In his impression, no body tempering cultivation technique would like to have a shady area, and the body tempering poison technique was the same!
That’s right, Martial Master Ma had heard that Lin Yi had a body refining poison technique, so he felt that Lin Yi should choose the South Peak!
In a place full of Yang Qi, it could better recuperate the body and temper the body in a way that balanced yin and yang.
On the surface, the North Peak seemed to be more suitable for Yin and poison, but body refining and poison techniques weren’t in that range. As the saying goes, Yin doesn’t last long, and Lin Yi’s choice of the North Peak was a mistake!
“Since you’ve said so, then let’s do it here!”
Martial Master Ma nodded-he’d already done his best, and he couldn’t stop Lin Yi from making his choice. That bit of admiration wasn’t enough to turn into respect!
“Is that kid stupid? He actually chose to go to the North Peak!”
Shimei Zhen’s eyes were filled with hatred as she stared at Lin Yi, but her face was full of gloating as she mocked in a low voice,”When he comes to the North Peak and stays there, there will definitely be a time when he regrets it. At that time, I’m afraid he will cry and shout to come to the South Peak!”
“Not bad! That brat Sima Yi will definitely regret this. Let’s see how he’ll end this …”
…………
Everyone who had grudges against Lin Yi sneered in their hearts and clapped their hands in joy, thinking that Lin Yi must have lost his mind and made a bad move!
This included the first and second Shixiong, who couldn’t help but smile after seeing Lin Yi’s choice, lowering Lin Yi’s threat level by quite a bit.
