Chapter 12997
Immediately, people started vying to offer prices.
Representatives from the other factions were not to be outdone, and they all extended olive branches to Lin Yi.
At this moment, Li Tianxing's headless corpse was still standing there, not even cold yet, and the scene had already turned into a job fair.
Lin Yi was both amused and exasperated, and quickly waved his hand: "Please don't misunderstand, everyone. That last strike was just a fluke, not my true strength."
This is the absolute truth.
Normally, even if he were able to engage in a head-on confrontation with Li Tianxing, he would have absolutely no chance of killing him with a single strike.
The reason for this was simply that she was too lucky and triggered that one percent of the annihilation characteristic, which led to such a terrifying scene.
But to everyone else, these words sounded like pure modesty.
Suddenly, everyone found him more agreeable.
Not only is he powerful, but he is also humble and modest. At the same time, he is the ruler of Tianjun and has his own power base.
From any perspective, this is a piece of exquisite raw jade.
If we really miss this opportunity, we'll be endlessly resented by the other senior executives in our company.
For a time, all parties became even more eager to win each other over.
Yuan Chu stared blankly at the scene, unable to recover for a long time.
From the moment he came to find Lin Yi, he had indeed planned to have Lin Yi stand up for him and kill Li Tianxing, but he never expected the whole process to be so clean and efficient.
Li Tianxing, this mortal enemy, was actually killed in a single strike.
After much persuasion, Lin Yi finally managed to appease the representatives of the various factions.
After everyone returned home, they naturally spread the word about what had happened that day.
The entire story of how Li Tianxing betrayed the core authority of the Beast God Academy, how he killed people to silence them, and even his attempts to harm them, is vividly recounted.
However, there was one thing they managed to cover up with remarkable tacit understanding: Lin Yi's instant kill of Li Tianxing.
The reason is simple.
If the other academies of gods find out about this, they will surely vie to extend olive branches to Lin Yi, making it even more difficult for them to compete for him.
Such matters should naturally be kept secret in tacit agreement.
After listening to the information relayed from all sides, Lin Yi turned to Zhang Baiyu and asked, "What do you think the Beast God Academy will do?"
Although Li Tianxing is dead, Lin Yi has managed to extract several divine weapons from him, which is quite a haul. However, the key to a successful resolution to this incident lies in the Beast God Academy's subsequent reaction.
Zhang Baiyu pondered and said, "They will most likely back down. Even if the Beast God Academy is powerful, it shouldn't be able to repeatedly incur the wrath of the masses, especially since their internal factional struggles are already intense."
He paused for a moment, then added, "Of course, the most important thing is to see how Yuan Chu handles things."
On the day Li Tianxing was killed, Yuan Chu, as the first eyewitness at the scene, returned to the Beast God Academy to report immediately.
This is extremely important.
Given his sensitive position in this incident, any hesitation on his part would only deepen the distrust of him among the higher-ups at the academy, which would then make things much more complicated.
As the two had expected, a heated debate was taking place among the higher-ups of the Beast God Academy.
One of the core issues was whether or not to seek revenge against Lin Yi.
After all, no matter what, Lin Yi killed high-ranking elders of the Beast God Academy. No matter how legitimate his reasons were, it was still a public slap in the face to the Beast God Academy.
If we just let this go so easily, what will become of the Beast God Academy's prestige?
Fortunately, the Beast God Academy has more than just this one faction.
Where there are those who want revenge against Lin Yi, there are naturally those who disagree.
After a final, fierce struggle, the chief of the Beast God Academy personally made the final decision.
The culprit behind this incident was Li Tianxing, who betrayed the core authority of the academy. His subsequent act of killing to silence witnesses brought even more shame to the entire Beast God Academy!
Now that Lin Yi has the support of eight other competitors, if the Beast God Academy makes a move against him, the situation will only continue to escalate.
Regardless of Lin Yi's fate, the reputation of the Beast God Academy will be utterly trampled underfoot and beyond repair.
Ultimately, even though the Beast God Academy has always acted arrogantly, it is still a legitimate academy of gods under the command of the Creator God, not one of those unscrupulous evil god academies. It still has to maintain some dignity.
Two days later, the Beast God Academy made an official statement.
Elder Li Tianxing betrayed the Beast God Academy by selling out the academy's core authority, a heinous crime.
Given that I am deceased, I am exempt from further punishment.
His master, as a core decision-making member, bore an unshirkable leadership responsibility and ordered him to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion for a year.
At the same time, another personnel appointment was announced.
Yuan Chu was reinstated as the person in charge of all affairs of the Beast God Academy in Tianjun County.
Seeing Yuan Chu leading a group of experts from the Beast God Academy back to Tianjun, Lin Yi and Zhang Baiyu exchanged a glance and smiled slightly.
However, on the surface, Yuan Chu's attitude remained the same, and he did not give Lin Yi any kindness in public.
To outsiders, it even seemed that the two had developed a greater rift.
Unspoken to each other.
Lin Yi wasn't worried about Yuan Chu turning against him.
It wasn't simply that he believed in Yuan Chu's character, but rather that he believed Yuan Chu was intelligent enough.
Truly intelligent people are those who know how to adapt to changing circumstances.
After this incident, Yuan Chu was very clear that he could not gain a foothold in the Beast God Academy on his own.
If he wants to climb the ranks, he needs strong external support.
Lin Yi is the most readily available choice.
Even setting aside everything else, his subsequent task of establishing the outpost would inevitably involve Lin Yi's cooperation.
However, at least on the surface, Lin Yi would not make any exceptions for him.
The reason is also very simple.
Currently, there are only eight breakthrough points that can be found, which have already been occupied by the other eight academies of gods.
Even if Lin Yi wanted to cooperate, he was powerless to do so.
In fact, even if Yuan Chu's progress was slow, the higher-ups of the Beast God Academy couldn't blame him.
Ultimately, it was all Li Tianxing's fault; Yuan Chu was just cleaning up his mess.
Regardless of what Yuan Chu will do next, Lin Yi is extremely busy.
Previously, I obtained 1,200 sets of divine equipment materials from the eight academies of gods. Now that I have some free time, I'll just get rid of them all.
Lin Yi was initially worried that the Wuhou Star Chart might fail him.
Although the Wuhou Star Chart had previously been proven to be able to synthesize intermediate and even advanced divine equipment, whether it could be mass-produced on a large scale remained an unknown.
If there's a limit to the number of times it can be combined, then its overall strategic value will be greatly diminished.
As the Wuhou Star Chart shimmered with light, the final piece of intermediate-level divine equipment was finally completed. Lin Yi let out a long sigh of relief, his face filled with disbelief.
"The Immortal Armor truly lives up to its name; it's incredibly durable!"
At this moment, the ground around him was piled high with intermediate-level divine equipment.
A total of 1,200 pieces!
Even Lin Yi himself found this scene unbelievable. (End of Chapter)
