Xun Zixian nodded, "Middle-level."
Mo Hua was sowhat puzzled, "Pills, Spiritual Artifacts, and Runes are all limited to Second Grade High-Level, but why can Formations only use Middle-level?"
Xun Zixian said, "Because for most Foundation Establishnt Late Stage Disciples, they can at most draw a Second Grade Middle-level Formation..." Mo Hua was stunned.
Xun Zixian said, "This is determined based on the general situation..."
"Most Foundation Building Cultivators simply cannot draw a Second Grade High-Level Formation; it counts as an 'above-standard' ability and naturally needs to be restricted."
"Moreover, Second Grade High-Level Formations are too powerful, whether in attack and defense or trapping the enemy. If Disciples were allowed to use them, all tactics would inevitably revolve around 'Formations, which goes against the original intention of the Sword Discussion."
"The Sword Discussion Conference still needs to be primarily about 'Skill Fighting, with other elents as auxiliaries."
Mo Hua was a bit dumbfounded.
It was now that he realized he had been 'dragged back' by the geniuses at the Qianxue State Boundary.
Within the Qianxue State Boundary, the backward Formation level of the vast Heavenly Pride Disciples restricted the performance of his Formations.
Such detailed rules, Mo Hua had not paid attention to before.
No one had told him either.
Because this level of Formation difficulty had always been 'default"."
But Mo Hua was different from everyone else; his Formation skills were too high. The Formations he 'defaulted' to were always 'High-Rank' ones.
Even High-Rank Formations seed quite ordinary to him.
He never expected that the Formations allocated for the Sword Discussion Conference would only be 'Second Grade Middle-level'...
Mo Hua sighed.
The rules were set by others, and he had no way around it.
Thinking it over, it indeed seed very reasonable.
But without Formations, he felt he lost many of his 'trump cards.'
Mo Hua furrowed his brow in thought for a mont, suddenly thought of sothing, and asked:
"Elder Zixian, besides these, is there anything else we can bring?"
Xun Zixian said, "That's mostly it, besides that, the Storage Bag will also be stuffed with miscellaneous items to simulate real combat situations."
Mo Hua had a sudden inspiration and quietly asked, "Among those miscellaneous items..."
Xun Zixian saw through his thoughts at a glance, nodded, and said, "There are so."
Mo Hua imdiately beca happy again.
Xun Zixian chuckled softly and shook his head.
Then the group continued on their way energetically.
As Mo Hua walked, he pondered the 'Second Grade Middle-level' Formation restriction.
Would this restriction affect his tactics?
Especially concerning the tactics of other Disciples from Taixu Gate.
After contemplating for a mont, Mo Hua realized that while there was indeed so impact, it wasn't significant; the power was just slightly diminished, but generally still applicable.
Also, it was not yet the actual Sword Discussion, so there was ti for last-minute adjustnts.
Mo Hua finally felt at ease.
As they walked, the group soon reached the far end of the Mount of Tao, beyond which were the seats for 'spectators.
At this ti, a huge, peculiar "white fabric" stretched across the sky.
The Disciples were all amazed.
Mo Hua was also puzzled and pointed at the "white fabric" asking, "Elder Zixian, what is that?"
"That's a Spiritual Artifact."
"Spiritual Artifact?" Mo Hua was stunned.
Xun Zixian said, "It is a giant 'Projection Spiritual Artifact' especially crafted by the Four Great Sects for this Sword Discussion."
"In appearance, it's a massive screen."
"During the Sword Discussion, it will clearly display the images of the Disciples' discussions for the Disciples of Qianxue and the aristocratic families and sects in the Nine State to watch.
"This Spiritual Artifact is expensive, known as... Xun Zixian said slowly:
"Fangtian Huaying!"
Fangtian Huaying...
The Disciples all looked up, gazing at the huge screen covering half the mountain, imagining the upcoming grand spectacle of thousands of Disciples competing in Sword Discussion, their expressions were filled with awe.
Mo Hua was also awestruck, and his scalp tingled with shock.
He was speechless.
Originally, his plan was to "quietly make a fortune" and hide his disreputable
thods.
When chaos ensues, he would sneakily make small moves without anyone
noticing.
But he never expected that the Sword Discussion Conference would create such a massive Fangtian Huaying for 'projection.'
With such a gigantic screen, how could he keep his trump cards hidden?
At that ti, wouldn't even the color of his underwear be seen clearly by
everyone?
Moreover, this huge 'Fangtian Huaying' obviously wasn't cheap.
Mo Hua couldn't help but complain in his heart.
He wondered who in the Four Great Sects was so full of themselves to create
such a costly item...
This was even more of a constraint on him than the 'Second Grade
Middle-level' Formation limitation.
Of course, the Four Great Sects could simply have created such a large Fangtian Huaying to facilitate spectators to 'watch the ceremony'
Yet, Mo Hua still felt very frustrated.
Even after visiting the Sword Discussion venue, returning to Taixu Gate, and sitting at the table in the Disciple's Residence, Mo Hua still furrowed his brows.
Regardless of anything else, this Fangtian Huaying was truly restraining him...
He didn't want to be 'conspicuous.
But since it was already created, he couldn't secretly go and blow it up. Furthermore, judging by the grade of this Fangtian Huaying, even if he wanted to blow it up, he might not have been able to.
"Forget it..."
Mo Hua sighed.
With the situation as it was, he could only find a way to hide himself even
deeper.
Without revealing his true origins, to bide his ti, "play dumb to catch the tiger," and conceal himself as long and as deeply as possible...
"This will require so serious planning...
Mo Hua took out his original plan again to re-plan.
How to advance step by step, covering his strength while winning, moving
further without exposing his 'trump cards... this challenge was enormous.
But gradually, with Mo Hua's planning, the broader strategy beca clearer bit
by bit.
