Chapter 323 The Array Formation Was So Simple
“What an interesting array formation. I must study it carefully this time.”
Li Xuan muttered as he continued to observe. He used the god’s perspective to carefully observe every pattern and recorded it in his mind in detail.
Time slowly passed.
The Spiritual Power aptitude test was carried out bit by bit. When the last youth left dejectedly, the test finally ended.
Fortunately, after Li Xuan, more than eighty odd-job disciples appeared. At the same time, ten disciples with good aptitude were tested.
Among them, eight were of medium-grade aptitude and two were of high-grade aptitude.
Li Xuan’s top-grade aptitude never appeared again. This further showed that Li Xuan was extraordinary.
“Alright, the few of you follow me.”
Deacon Niu waved at the ten disciples with good aptitude. At the same time, he also called Li Xuan, and headed toward the Seven Stars Sect’s main hall together.
During this process, the ten disciples looked at Li Xuan from time to time. Some of them even wanted to talk to Li Xuan and make friends with him.
Unfortunately, with Deacon Niu here, no one dared to say anything. Everyone continued to move forward in silence.
Soon, everyone arrived at the Seven Stars Sect’s main hall. They saw the grand and imposing main hall made of white stone. On the plaque above the main hall, there were three big words carved with the words ‘Seven Stars Sect”.
“All of you wait here for a moment. I’ll go report this to the higher-ups.”
Deacon Niu left a message and nodded at Li Xuan. He turned around and walked into the Seven Stars Sect’s great hall to report this matter.
Not long after, the sound of an argument could be heard from within the Seven Stars Sect’s great hall. Soon, a robust red-haired old man walked out of the Great Hall angrily. After glancing at Li Xuan, he directly sat on a large stone not far away.
Not long after, Deacon Niu came out. With him was a white-haired, thin, and small old man.
“This is our seven stars sect’s fifth elder. He is also a true Array Formation Master. The level of the array formation has already reached the High-Level Third Tier. He is not far from the Third Tier Peak.”
Deacon Niu hurriedly introduced the old man.
“Greetings, fifth elder.”
The youths hurriedly bowed and looked at this thin and small old man, fifth elder, with respect.
“Yes.”
The fifth elder nodded, and a faint purple light flashed in his eyes. Then, he glanced at Li Xuan and said with a smile, “Not bad, all good children…”
“From now on, all of you will be the outer sect disciples of the sect. Deacon Niu will teach you the knowledge of spirit energy and array formations…”
After fifth elder finished his speech, he arranged for Deacon Niu to lead everyone away and directly went to the area where the outer sect disciples were located. After everyone left, the red-haired old man who was sitting on a big rock arrogantly walked up to the skinny fifth elder and curled his lips in disdain.
“How is it? I already said that with me around, it’s impossible for the Demon Race to sneak into the sect. You still didn’t believe me and insisted on confirming it yourself.”
“It’s true that we didn’t discover the Demon Race, but the sect leader rushed to the Beast Tamer Sect in a hurry. It’s very likely that something went wrong there. We need to be even more cautious here. We can’t lose the greater good just because of a small thing,” the skinny fifth elder said cautiously.
vuoly.
“Alright, this matter has passed. Next, let’s talk about the matter of accepting disciples. Among the new disciples, a young man called Li Xuan has extraordinary talent. He is very suitable to join the war hall and become my disciple.” “After he becomes a core disciple through contribution points, I have decided to take him as my disciple and train him to become a powerful Spiritual Warrior. You don’t have any objections, right?” said the red-haired old man directly.
“No! This time it’s my turn to take in a disciple. How can I give such a good disciple to you so casually?” The fifth elder rejected without hesitation.
“Why can’t you give him to me? Li Xuan’s Spiritual Power aptitude is of the highest quality. With such aptitude to learn array formations from you, it’s simply a waste of heaven’s gifts.” The red-haired elder was angry and shouted loudly. “Who said it’s a waste of Heaven’s gifts? What if Li Xuan’s array formation aptitude is also very excellent? Then it’s just right to learn array formations from me. Who knows, you might be able to train him to become a Fourth Tier Array Formation Master.”
The skinny fifth elder was not willing to be outdone and still did not give in.
When the red-haired elder heard this, he became even angrier. He once again said loudly, “What array formations require is comprehension ability. It’s completely different from the talent in Spiritual Power…”
It was already very shocking that Li Xuan had top-grade Spiritual Power aptitude. How could he still have the comprehension ability in array formations? Can you not make things more troublesome for me? You will waste Li Xuan’s talent in Spiritual Power like this.”
“Who said I’m wasting it? Without a test, how do you know Li Xuan doesn’t have the ability to comprehend array formation? What if he does?” the skinny fifth elder said again.
“If he does, I’ll write my surname upside down!” said the red-haired elder angrily.
“We’ll wait and see,” the skinny fifth elder said seriously.
“Okay, let’s see.”
Ignoring the argument between the two, the scene went back to Li Xuan.
At this moment, Li Xuan and the others had arrived at the outer sect disciple area and were arranged to stay in the cave abodes. These cave abodes were like townhouses, one by one.
At the entrance of each cave abode, there was a protective shield and array formation protecting everything in the cave abodes.
Li Xuan’s cave abodes were called Auspicious Clouds Cave Abodes. Their overall area was like a small courtyard in the countryside. Other than being ancient, there was nothing special about them.
In addition, from the next day onward, they would go to the Spiritual Qi Hall and the Array Formation Hall to learn basic knowledge, such as how to cultivate Spiritual Power and refine Spiritual Qi. The Array Formation Hall was the training of the basic knowledge of array formations. They would start teaching the knowledge of array formations from the most basic Spiritual Patterns.
Li Xuan had been looking forward to it for a long time. After tidying up his cave abode, he fell asleep early in the morning, looking forward to tomorrow’s teaching.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
On this morning, Li Xuan was sitting in the formation hall, quietly listening to the first formation knowledge that Deacon Niu taught him, which was the small protective shield.
During this half a month, Li Xuan had learned all the basic knowledge. He had already memorized it thoroughly, but he had not come into contact with the real formations.
When he heard about the array formation knowledge of the protective shield, Li Xuan had a sudden realization. He felt that these array formations were very simple and did not have any difficulty.
However, the surrounding disciples all had gloomy expressions on their faces. It was obvious that they did not completely understand.
“Alright, let’s call it a day. I know that the difficulty of the Small Protective Barrier is relatively high, and you guys don’t quite understand it…”
“But this is already the most basic array formation. You all must work hard. In order to urge you, from today onwards, the defensive barrier at the entrance of your cave abode will disappear…”
“If you don’t want your home to be open every day, then you should rely on yourself as soon as possible to set up the array formation.”
After finishing his words, Deacon Niu handed over the materials and the formation diagram for setting up the formation and said once again.
“If the array formation is set up, we will carry out an inspection. At the very least, it has to be able to withstand a full-strength strike from a Black Iron Rank. That’s all.”
After finishing his words, Deacon Niu turned around and left, leaving behind everyone who was frowning
“It’s too difficult. I didn’t even understand the basic Spiritual Patterns, and now he’s already teaching the array formation. This is too fast,” someone said.
“Yeah, I heard from those seniors that they usually only teach the Small Protective Barrier after studying the basic knowledge for three months. How did they teach it so quickly this time?”
“Who knows? Forget it. Take the array formation diagram and go back and study it properly. Try to set it up within three months.” “This is the only way. Sigh! It’s too difficult.”
Following everyone’s words, everyone left the formation hall dejectedly and returned to their own cave abode to study the formation.
Li Xuan also returned. Seeing that the array formation in his house had begun to shake, the formation quickly disappeared.
Li Xuan was not worried at all. Instead, he held the materials to set up the formation and busied himself at the entrance. Relying on his deep foundation, he easily set up the small protective barrier formation.
“So simple. The Small Protective Barrier Array Formation is indeed the lowest level array formation. It’s too simple. However, these patterns are very interesting. There’s a certain amount of room for improvement. I’ll give it a try.”
Li Xuan began to modify it. Relying on the foundation of the Spiritual Talisman and Spiritual Patterns, he began to be extremely busy. He devoted his entire body and mind to
it.
On the other side, Deacon Niu was reporting the situation to the thin and small fifth elder. He was talking about today’s lecture.
“Fifth elder, I’ve already taught Li Xuan and the others about the Small Protective Barrier Array Formation. However, isn’t it too early? I see that the disciples are frowning. I’m afraid they haven’t learned it yet.”
“It’s fine. Li Xuan’s aptitude for Spiritual Power is extremely high. If his talent in array formations isn’t good, then let him join the battle hall and cultivate Spiritual Power with all his might.”
“Through the Small Protective Barrier Array Formation, we can test Li Xuan’s comprehension ability. If he can set up the formation within the next month, then he is qualified to be my disciple.” The fifth elder said calmly, helplessness flashing in his eyes. “Set up the array formation within a month? This is too difficult. Back then, it took me three months to learn it…”
“Fifth elder, I remember that it took you two months to learn how to set up the Small Protective Barrier Array Formation, right?” Deacon Niu whispered.
“Don’t think that I’m harsh. It’s just that Li Xuan’s spiritual essence aptitude is too high, so he is very suitable to join the battle hall. Although I took two months to set up the Small Protective Barrier Array Formation…”
“But if Li Xuan is unable to set up the Small Protective Barrier Array Formation within a month, it means that his array formation aptitude isn’t as good as his Spiritual Power aptitude. In that case, he’s suitable to join the combat hall and focus on raising his Spiritual Powerlevel.”
The fifth elder explained. He also felt that he was being too harsh, but he wanted Li Xuan to have a better future and walk the path that was most suitable for Li Xuan.
