School flower's personal master

Chapter 12916

If these admission tickets were stolen by the Great Thief Academy, it would definitely be a significant blow to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me. You've finished your act, and now someone else is going to come and compete with me."

The announcement just made claims that the remaining nine tickets to the Mystic Realm that he had were stolen by the Great Thief Academy.

The Great Thief Academy is now openly announcing to all parties that it is preparing to replace Lin Yi and hold an auction for admission tickets to the Mystic Realm.

The strange thing is that the nine admission tickets are lying quietly in the New World, and they haven't been lost at all.

The Great Thief Academy is, after all, a temple of gods. Even if its reputation is bad and its style of doing things is always despised, it doesn't need to say such empty words for no reason.

Since this news has been made public, there must be a reason for it.

Lin Yi frowned and pinched his chin: "What are you planning to do?"

Upon returning to Tianjun, Zhang Baiyu quickly provided an explanation: "They're trying to force us to prove ourselves."

Lin Yi blinked: "What do you mean?"

Zhang Baiyu said in a deep voice, "The other side is clearly trying to muddy the waters so they can take advantage of the situation."

"If we want to hold the auction normally, we must provide evidence to prove to all parties that the entrance ticket to the Mystic Realm is still in our hands."

Lin Yi nodded: "That's for sure."

Although it only took a short while, he had already received inquiries from all sides.

The core issue boils down to one point.

He must prove to everyone that he still has the tickets, otherwise no one will attend the auction.

In fact, even without the incident involving the Great Thief Academy, the fact that the admission ticket to the Goddess Academy was invalidated already raised many doubts among the other parties.

This latest disturbance only makes matters worse.

Lin Yi realized what was going on: "You mean, the Great Thief Academy is trying to force me to publicly reveal my entrance ticket to the Mystic Realm so that they can make their move?"

Zhang Baiyu nodded: "Testing the waters is a common tactic used by thieves."

Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder: "Even if I did as they wanted and showed everyone the admission tickets, were they really so confident that they could steal them?"

This wasn't just Lin Yi being blindly confident.

If it were anyone else, facing the thieves from the Great Thief Academy, they probably wouldn't be able to protect their belongings, even if they kept them close to their body.

But just in case, Lin Yi stored all the entrance tickets to the main mysterious realm directly in the new world.

Could it be that the Great Thief Academy could infiltrate the New World and steal them?
Is this even possible?
Let alone a mere academy of thieves, even if the legendary God of Thieves himself were to come, he might not have this ability.

Zhang Baiyu said thoughtfully, "I once heard that the Great Thief Academy has a secret theft technique called the Karmic Theft Method."

“They don’t necessarily have to touch anything they’ve set their sights on. As long as they get involved in enough karma, they can steal the target directly.”

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched: "There's such a thing?"

Zhang Baiyu nodded in a deep voice.

Lin Yi was incredulous: "According to you, they only need to keep watch over there, and they don't even need to come to Tianjun, to take the entrance ticket to the Mystic Realm from my hands?"

"Is there really such an amazing thieving technique in the world?"

Zhang Baiyu's tone also carried a hint of uncertainty: "I don't know the specific procedures, but this is the foundation of their Great Thief Academy, so it's not surprising that they have some unexpected expertise in this area."

Lin Yi clicked his tongue: "That's true. A prestigious thief's academy must have some extraordinary abilities."

Fortunately, he had Zhang Baiyu as his strategist, and he himself was naturally very wary of such self-proving traps; otherwise, the Great Thief Academy might have succeeded in this operation.

After all, if one is not prepared in advance, it is truly impossible to guard against methods like stealing the law based on cause and effect.

After a pause, Lin Yi scratched his head: "We can't prove ourselves, but we still need to think of a solution, otherwise we won't get through this."

Ultimately, the auction will still have to be held.

Theoretically speaking, even if this auction falls through, Lin Yi can simply wait until the storm has passed and then reschedule for another day.

As long as you still have the entrance ticket to the Mystic Realm, there shouldn't be any major problems.

The key point is that the admission tickets do have an expiration date.

Although there is no explicit rule that the track master must be handed over to the target force by a certain date, there is still an unspoken deadline.

This is a natural understanding between them.

If Lin Yi really slacks off and drags things out for too long, not to mention whether the track god will punish him, at least the competition for the god's opportunity will be disrupted.

As for Lin Yi himself, it remains to be seen whether he will completely lose the favor of the track's master god as a result.

At least one thing is certain.

If he really does that, he will definitely lose points in the eyes of the track's main god, and the difficulty of competing for this opportunity with the main god will be multiplied.

Given Lin Yi's personality, he would naturally not sit idly by and wait for death if he had a choice.

The challenge lies in how to prove oneself next.

To be precise, the question is how to circumvent the need for self-proof and convince all parties that the ticket to the auction is still in his hands, allowing him to continue participating in the next auction.

After a moment of silence, Lin Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Since the Great Thief Academy has gone to such lengths to spread the word that they've already stolen the admission tickets, why don't we just go with the flow and not offend them?"

Zhang Baiyu was stunned for a moment, then realized: "Does Your Excellency mean that the Great Thief Academy should prove itself?"

Lin Yi nodded, looking at it with interest: "The entrance ticket to the Mystic Realm isn't some old relic; you can just find a corner to store it away and that's it."

"Since the Great Thief Academy has put on this show, it naturally needs to make a profit."

"Even if they themselves are not in a hurry to cash out, other forces will definitely urge them to hand over their tickets."

"If they can't come up with it, hehe, that'll be hilarious."

Zhang Baiyu's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Your Excellency is wise!"

He pondered for a moment and added, "Why don't we just add fuel to the fire and say that the nine admission tickets have already been reserved by the Great Thief Academy, and they are planning to use this opportunity to monopolize the opportunity of the main god."

"Including the invalidation of the admission ticket for the Goddess Academy, that was also their doing."

This kind of rhetoric, though baseless and without evidence, is only meant to counter the rumors about the Great Thief Academy, and therefore doesn't require any concrete evidence.

Lin Yi smiled slightly: "Since you're going to cause trouble, you should be prepared to be overwhelmed yourself. I'll leave this matter to you."

Zhang Baiyu immediately agreed: "Understood, I'll go and spread the word to everyone right away."
