Chapter 8747 8746-
Zhang Yiming took out a black battle invitation with gold words and handed it to Lin Yi with both hands, explaining,"This is a letter of challenge from the sky array sect's sub-sect leader, challenging the boss."
"The sky array sect's sub-sect master is new. The previous matters have been thrown to the previous sub-sect master, saying that it has nothing to do with the current Sky array sect!"
"On the surface, the sky array sect has shirked all responsibility and restored its original reputation. Because you killed a lot of sky array sect people, the new sub-school leader has challenged you!"
This was the best way to regain their reputation. Defeating Lin Yi might not wash away their previous disrepute, but at least they could use this opportunity to establish their prestige and rise again in the Sangzi continent!
The thought process was weird, but Lin Yi could understand.
He opened the black letter with gold words and smiled,"Grandmaster battle? This new Sky array sect's sub-school leader seems to be very confident in his strength, does he think he can defeat me?"
The so-called Grandmaster battle was a battle between two grandmasters who used their Grandmaster titles as a bet. The losing party would lose the Grandmaster title and could no longer participate in the assessment.
If Lin Yi failed, not only would he lose his Grandmaster title, he'd also lose his position as the Vice President of the array formation Guild.
Without the title of Grandmaster, one would not be qualified to hold such a position.
Of course, if they were not confident and felt that they would lose, they could also refuse the invitation to the master's battle. However, in that case, they would be known as cowards.
It didn't make much of a difference whether he had the title of Grandmaster or not. No one would respect him when he went out.
Therefore, a battle between grandmasters was usually reserved for people who had deep grudges and were irreconcilable with each other.
"Boss, the sky array sect is seeking their own death! Since they're so eager to give their heads away, we don't need to be polite with them. Let's just do it!"
Zhang Yiming couldn't help but laugh as well. He had more confidence in Lin Yi than Lin Yi himself, and it could be said that he blindly worshipped Lin Yi's level.
If Lin Yi was said to be the sub island's number one, he'd still support him firmly. It was just a Grandmaster battle between sky array sect's sub-sect leaders, what was that?
Boss could easily beat a dozen of this level of trash!
"Indeed, if I don't agree, I would be letting down the sky array sect's intentions!"
Lin Yi smiled as he threw the letter on the table."The sky array sect invited me to their territory. They probably think that they have the right place and people to help them take me down safely, right?"
"I was still worried about how to get close to the sky array sect. Now I don't have to worry, they came to me themselves. Yiming, help me reply to the sky array sect, tell them that I'll accept this master battle!"
Lin Yi was afraid that the sky array sect would suddenly go back on their word.
Zhang Yiming laughed and agreed. He turned around to reply to the sky array sect about this matter. At the same time, he silently wished that the sky array sect's sub-school leader would not lose too badly ...
Before Lin Yi came back, when the battle invitation was sent, the news of the sky array sect's Grandmaster battle with Sima Yi had already spread like wildfire outside.
He didn't even need to ask to know that the sky array sect was the one spreading the news, pushing the matter to the point where Lin Yi couldn't reject them.
If he refused, he would lose all face for martial league's Hall Master and patrol.
However, they didn't expect Lin Yi to not think that it was a bad thing at all. He agreed to the Grandmaster-level challenge without any hesitation, which made their hype useless.
Well, it wasn't completely useless-at least the news of Lin Yi agreeing to the Grandmaster battle spread like wildfire. He probably wouldn't go back on his word, would he?
The Jia's were overjoyed when they received the news-they were furious at Lin Yi's removal of the Vice inspector, and immediately sent someone to contact the sky array sect, saying that they wanted to team up with them to deal with Lin Yi.
In fact, during the strengthening mission in the abandoned forest, the Jia family and sky array sect had already joined forces once, but it didn't end well. Lin Yi killed them all by himself, and they were now brothers in the same boat ...
Whether the two sides would officially join forces this time and what the result would be, it was still unknown for the time being. They could only wait and see when the time came.
The next morning, Lin Yi brought Shi chengcai to the sky array sect's meeting place.
Lin Yi was supposed to be the only one fighting, and with his strength, it'd be more convenient for him to fight alone.
It was just that Grandmaster-level battles were rare, and Shi Yucai was very interested after hearing about it. She suggested going with Lin Yi to see it, and Lin Yi didn't think it was a problem, so he brought her.
Safety wasn't a big problem. With Lin Yi's strength, it wasn't difficult to escape with Shi Yucai, but it was hard to say if there were more people, so Fei daqiang and Zhang Yiming could only stay behind.
The location of the sky array sect's meeting was a remote forest near the abandoned forest, which was usually inaccessible.
Lin Yi wasn't sure if this was the base of the sky array sect, or if it was just a temporary venue for the Grandmaster battle.
"Sangzi great continent's martial Alliance's Hall Master and patrol envoy, Sima Yi, and his disciple Shi wancai have been invited to participate in the Grandmaster battle!"
There was an activated defensive formation around the forest, and Lin Yi decided to use peaceful means before violence. He stood outside the formation and reported his name, waiting for the other party's reaction.
Lin Yi had just finished his sentence when someone in the formation replied,"Grandmaster Sima, you don't have to talk about status or position. Today is the Grandmaster battle, so you can only speak as a Grandmaster."
"It is a great honor for the sky array sect to have the two grandmasters here! However, if the two of you wish to enter, please enter the formation first! Both of you are Diamond Grade grandmasters, I don't think such a small matter would be difficult for you. "
The sky array sect was secretly happy that Lin Yi had brought Shi chengcai along. It would be perfect if they could take care of the two at the same time!
However, even though he was happy, he still had to show off his power in his plan!
Letting Lin Yi break in by himself was the sky array sect's way of putting Lin Yi down. With the sect's background, the formations they set up were naturally not ordinary.
If Lin Yi couldn't even break this formation, then the sky array sect could just spread the word that Lin Yi didn't deserve his reputation, that he couldn't even handle a gate guard, and that he didn't have the right to fight the Grandmaster battle with the sky array sect's leader!
Lin Yi's lips curled up as he smiled. "It's indeed a small matter, nothing difficult! Since you don't want this formation anymore, I'll help you dismantle it!"
The sky array sect's array could not be considered a complete sub-Island sect, as it was mixed with some sky order island's array Dao philosophy.
Therefore, to the sub island's array path Grandmaster, it would appear profound and difficult to understand, absolutely unfathomable.
