Lin Yun nodded.
He probably understood it too.
This is the same as the sects in Tianwu Continent.
There are only a few seats for inner disciples and core disciples, so there will be competitions among disciples within the sect to give outer disciples a chance to become inner disciples.
It also gives inner disciples the opportunity to become core disciples.
If this kind of competitive relationship is benign, it can also encourage the disciples to make progress.
But once there is a bad apple, it can easily spoil the whole pot of soup.
At that time, it will turn into a fight for that seat. The friendship between fellow disciples and the fact that they share the same master will all be thrown out of their minds. Only by becoming the core of the inner sect can they practice better.
The same is true for the Battle of Commanders.
By becoming the ruler of the main city, you can become a superior person and may even be able to take over the crystal mines in the villages outside the city.
Based on these crystal ores, you can recruit soldiers and improve your strength.
Lin Yun looked at this familiar face and smiled:
"Don't worry, since I've chosen to cooperate with you, I'm sure that at the very least I can help you retain your position as commander, and maybe even give you a fighting chance over there."
His palm pointed at the tower-like building in the distance.
Commander Zhang nodded heavily.
Somehow, he felt that as long as the young man made a promise, it would definitely come true.
The other side.
The man in black robe followed Commander Zhao respectfully.
Suddenly, Commander Zhao turned around and slapped him in the face.
"Tell me! Why did you suddenly attack me?!"
Originally, they should have retired after achieving success and leaving after giving Zhang a big show of strength, not to mention how much they had earned.
But this servant actually dared to act on his own.
It would be fine if we just started fighting, but we haven't even started fighting yet and I've suffered a loss!
I even lost face.
Thinking of this, he became more and more angry, and slapped the black-robed man in the face again.
The latter stood tall and motionless, allowing Commander Zhao to beat and scold him.
"I'm asking you a question, why are you hitting me? Are you dumb? Or do you want me to make you dumb?"
The man in black robe finally spoke slowly.
"I sensed a remarkable aura from that young man and suspected it was a tricky idea. I was afraid that things would get complicated if I waited too long, so I decided to just take action. If I succeed, that would be great. If not, I can test his ability."
"Have you tried it out?"
“Very impressive.”
Commander Zhao narrowed his eyes, even though he had a brief fight with the young man.
But it wasn't enough to make him feel how tricky it was.
Moreover, most of his methods were just defensive, so he couldn't find out anything.
However, he had great confidence in the combat ability of this subordinate of his.
Otherwise, there would be no chance to compete for the position of leader.
"Tell me how you feel."
The man in black robe was quite concise and to the point.
"He doesn't have the familiar aura of crystals, but he can still create a weapon out of thin air."
"impossible!"
Commander Zhao denied it in a deep voice.
In this world, no one can leave the crystal. Without the energy of the crystal, one is just an ordinary person!
Therefore, it is impossible for someone to create something out of thin air without the crystal!
"But this is my personal experience! There's no way I could be wrong!"
Commander Zhao let out a long sigh and asked:
"Are you serious? I think it could be an even more powerful crystal, so powerful that even you can't sense it. I once heard that a man named Zhang hid an Ice Soul Crystal, but I'm not sure if it's true or not. If that guy really has such a powerful ability, it's very likely to be true."
His eyes kept rolling, as if he had thought of some conspiracy.
"Well, take your people and try again tonight. I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion and indirectly tell the Lord City Lord about this matter. It would be best if the Lord City Lord can come tomorrow. If it's true, there's absolutely no way Zhang can survive!"
In the darkness, his face became distorted.
"Even if he wins, the City Lord won't let him off easy once the Ice Soul Crystal Stone incident is exposed!"
The man in black robe nodded heavily, bowed and prepared to turn and leave.
But at this moment, Commander Zhao suddenly stopped him.
What followed was an extremely disgusting action.
He stroked the black-robed man's cheek and said softly:
"Does it hurt?"
"My Lord, it doesn't hurt."
"It's all my fault. I hit you without any reason."
"If you want to strike me, you don't need a reason. I won't take it to heart. My life was given by you, the commander, so I will accept your decision."
"Hahahaha, great! Once you and I are both commanders, we can plan for even greater power!"
The night gradually darkened.
The night life of the senior management has just begun. If it weren't for the life-and-death battle for leadership tomorrow, Commander Zhang would not have brought Lin Yun back home so early.
On the eve of the war, when the storm was about to come, it was easy to encounter danger outside. Only by staying in the building would the group of people be cautious.
Commander Zhang also felt a little guilty. After all, he was the host, and it would be unacceptable for him to fail to fulfill his duties as a good host.
Lin Yun sat by the window, looking at the bustling world.
In fact, although this main city looks tall and brightly lit, it actually gives people the illusion of peace.
On the lowest streets, poor families didn't even dare to turn on the lights. The only light came from the ruffians who were robbing people in dark corners with low-quality crystals.
He let out a breath softly.
It seems that every world has its ugly side. Even in Xuanwu City, which is regarded as a pilgrimage city, such things happen in places where no one can see.
"Mr. Lin, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, just some emotion. The prosperity of your main city is the first time I have seen it in my life."
Commander Zhang shook his head slightly.
"What's so prosperous about this? It's all an illusion. This is for you."
He took out an inconspicuous little box, which contained a thumb-sized blue crystal. The energy inside was extremely concentrated. If you didn't sense it carefully, you might just put it anywhere and think it was just a small ornament.
"This is?"
"I'm not going to wait until you win to give you the Ice Soul Crystal. I'll give you this one first. As for the Light Crystal and Dark Crystal, they're in the hands of the City Lord and the Black Crystal Beast in the largest crystal mine outside the city, respectively. Even the City Lord is powerless to stop them."
Lin Yun took the Ice Soul Crystal Stone, and the temperature on it actually condensed a thin layer of ice crystals on his palm.
At this time, the voice of the system also entered his mind.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Ice Soul Crystal. The mission progress is 50% and the reward has been distributed!"
