Free Web NovelChapter 2660: Chapter 2663: Did You Cheat?
Wow!
Just when everyone was feeling disappointed, a light flashed on the stele, and a name appeared in a box: ’Jiang Chen, Ninth Level.’
"Brother Jiang Chen has reached the Ninth Level!"
Lei Ling’er exclaimed joyfully.
"Hmph! It’s just the Ninth Level. If he can’t break through, he’ll still be eliminated."
Zuo Qiqi snorted coldly. Her rank had already dropped to 81st, indicating that the position was based on the time and breakthrough progress, not that 81 people had cleared the tenth level.
In the same breakthrough progress, those with shorter times rank higher; in the same level, those with more progress rank higher.
Upon hearing this, Lei Ling’er glared at Zuo Qiqi and then turned with a hint of worry to look at the stele.
"Hehe, that Jiang Chen is headed to the Vanguard Army!"
A cold laughter echoed, and a trace of icy chill appeared in Ming Yang’s eyes.
"Vanguard Army? Yeah, if Jiang Chen can’t secure a top ten in the Formation Path, he’ll be punished by the Crown Prince and sent to the Vanguard Army!"
"Damn, a Seventh Grade Pill Master going to the Vanguard Army? Has it ever happened?"
"Whether it’s happened or not, the Crown Prince never goes back on his word!" frёewebnoѵēl.com
A flurry of discussions erupted.
The eyes of Lei Ling’er and others slightly shifted, and they all frowned at Jiang Chen’s name box, a hint of worry in their eyes.
"I caused this!"
Su Qingluan spoke with full remorse.
Meanwhile, the members of the Formation Path families showed a hint of joy.
There were only a few hours left, and everyone waited with bated breath, each with their own thoughts.
The sky turned dark and then brightened again.
Wow!
As the sun rose, a ray of light shot out from the stele, and a middle-aged man appeared before everyone.
’Wu Chengzhe, six days and eleven two hours, cleared the Twelfth Level, temporarily ranked first!’
"Cleared the Twelfth Level?"
"My goodness, who is this?"
"This guy isn’t from any major Formation Path family, right?"
"Seems like he’s a loose cultivator. Can he be this powerful without family support?"
"Virtual Refinement Realm Peak, nearly ten thousand Seal Spirit Formation Masters, his Formation Path talent is too strong!"
Exclamations of surprise echoed.
"Not necessarily nearly ten thousand Seal Spirit Formation Masters; maybe he mastered a powerful defensive array, found the formation eye, and broke the formation. Who said breaking the formation can only be done by mutual attacks between arrays? Using formations to counterattack and offset each other is a method of Myriad Array Chart cultivation; this is a grand competition!"
A voice called out.
Everyone was slightly startled, then quickly realized.
There hadn’t been a formation path grand competition for a hundred years; when Myriad Array Chart was mentioned, people subconsciously thought of using arrays against arrays, overlooking that locating the formation eye and foundation could break the formation!
"That Jiang Chen is definitely eliminated!"
While others discussed Wu Chengzhe, Zuo Qiqi kept staring at Jiang Chen’s box, with only one hour left. He remained at the Ninth Level, and Zuo Qiqi figured Jiang Chen couldn’t possibly pass.
Su Qingluan and others lightly furrowed their brows, staring straight at the box displaying Jiang Chen’s name.
Wow!
Jiang Chen’s box flickered, and the text changed: ’Jiang Chen, Tenth Level’!
"Brother Jiang Chen cleared the Ninth Level!"
Lei Ling’er said joyfully.
"It’s useless even if he cleared it. Now the top hundred are all past the Ninth Level, if he wants to compete in progress, he probably won’t beat others!"
Mu Linqing spoke softly.
"You can’t compete at all!"
Lei Ling’er glared at Mu Linqing and turned to stare at the box, which revealed a hint of worry in her eyes.
"City Lord Ming, I recall there’s a rule in the Formation Path grand competition that the top three family representatives of the last competition have the right to convey timing to their representatives to prevent them from forgetting the time while comprehending inside, right?"
Hu Yiqiu suddenly glanced at Ming Xuanren.
"Yes!"
Ming Xuanren nodded lightly.
"Hehe! What do you mean? Are you suggesting Jiang Chen has been slow in passing levels because he forgot the time while comprehending? Haha! How utterly ridiculous!"
Zuo Qiqi sneered, and others also showed disdain, not believing Hu Yiqiu’s claim.
"City Lord Ming, please remind Jiang Chen about the time. This kid, once he gets immersed in comprehending, indeed forgets time. Also... this guy suddenly has epiphanies, easily achieving them and who knows how many days he’s in epiphany. He just entered the Tenth Level, so surely not in epiphany now; inform him!"
Hu Yiqiu spoke earnestly.
Everyone paused, then looked at Hu Yiqiu as if looking at a fool.
"Haha! Haha... Epiphany? Haha! Really boasting!"
"Easily achieving epiphany, I might as well casually breakthrough realms!"
"Really putting gold on your face!"
A burst of disdainful cries resounded.
Su Qingluan and others gave a strange look to Hu Yiqiu, while Hu Yiqiu remained calm, looking directly at Ming Xuanren.
If anyone knew Jiang Chen’s Formation Path skills well, it would be Hu Yiqiu. Someone who could see through Changlin Academy’s Protective Institute Great Formation in days would surely handle the dead formations in Myriad Array Chart?
Yes, dead formations!
The formations inside the Myriad Array Chart were dead formations, activating by time to give people the chance to break them. As for Jiang Chen’s ability to create powerful arrays, Hu Yiqiu couldn’t say for sure, but for finding formation eyes to break formations, especially dead formations, with Jiang Chen’s capability, the twelve layers of Myriad Array Chart were nothing!
Ming Xuanren gave Hu Yiqiu a suspicious glance, then spoke softly following the rules: "Jiang Chen, one hour until the end of the first round."
The voice was transmitted into the stele through a mysterious fluctuation.
Everyone shrugged indifferently, continuing to wait. An hour wasn’t long!
Three quarters later.
Wow!
A flash of light passed, everyone paused in surprise.
"Impossible!"
"How could this be!?"
"How could he break the Tenth Level array in three quarters?!"
"Using Heavenly Origin Big Dipper Array? Impossible, with his strength, he can’t set up such a powerful Heavenly Origin Big Dipper Array!"
Cries of disbelief echoed, and everyone showed an incredulous look.
At this time, the text on Jiang Chen’s box changed: ’Jiang Chen, Eleventh Level’!
Hu Yiqiu smiled slightly. I knew it would be like this; this kid breaks formations like child’s play!
Wow wow wow!
One quarter later, white rays brightened from the stele, and figures flew out.
Time for the first round of grand competition was up, and everyone was thrown out of the Myriad Array Chart.
"Jiang Chen, did you cheat? Admit it if you have the guts!"
A voice filled with anger rang out, with Zuo Qiqi glaring fiercely at Jiang Chen who landed beside Hu Yiqiu and others.
Jiang Chen glanced at Zuo Qiqi, saying calmly: "How could you cheat in the Myriad Array Chart? Zuo Qiqi, a brain is a good thing!"
"You... I don’t believe you had an epiphany inside!"
Zuo Qiqi shouted again.
The crowd also glanced at Jiang Chen, all revealing a suspicious look.
