anwhile, whenever there was a chance, Mo Hua began the calculations for the section of the Large Formation's Formation Pivot that Mr. Zhuang had pointed out on the mountainside.
Searching within the ever-rotating Formation Pivot for that constantly shifting Life-gate...
By the ti Mo Hua had observed enough and honed his calculation skills thoroughly,
Mr. Zhuang called over Sect Leader Liao and instructed,
"We are well-rested now, you can fulfill the agreent."
Sect Leader Liao was taken aback.
The agreent...
Naturally, it referred to the arrangent of allowing Mr. Zhuang's disciple to learn the Five Elent Ultimate Formation.
Sect Leader Liao said with a smile, "There is still ti, Elder could rest a few more days while I consult with the Inner Gate Elders again..."
Mr. Zhuang said indifferently,
"What I have just said was a notification, not a discussion."
Sect Leader Liao, thick-faced, still wanted to make excuses, but suddenly felt a sinking feeling in his heart. Looking up, he saw Mr. Zhuang's gaze withdrawn, his entire presence like an unparalleled sharp sword, his aura majestic and peerless.
There was no fluctuation of Spiritual Power, no trace of Spell use.
But there was an extrely strong oppressive feeling.
Rendering him utterly unable to harbor any thoughts of resistance.
In Mr. Zhuang's eyes seed to lurk thousands of sword glints, as if capable of directly piercing through Sect Leader Liao's veil of secrets, causing his heart to tremble and making him lower his head, unable to look him in the eye.
A mont later, everything dissipated like smoke and clouds.
No might, no pressure.
The breeze blew gently as if nothing had ever happened.
But Sect Leader Liao was drenched in cold sweat, his voice trembling,
"Elder, please calm your anger, I will... report back to the Chief Elder right away..."
...
Sect Leader Liao left in a state of panic and soon reported the matter to the Chief Elder in the cave dwelling behind the mountain.
The Chief Elder slamd the table in anger, "This is outrageous!"
"The pressure of Divine Sense!"
"Do they really think the Five Elents Sect is without capable people?!"
Sect Leader Liao thought to himself, isn't our Five Elents Sect exactly without capable people... but he harbored not a hint of resentnt.
He just didn't understand.
How could a person without Spiritual Power and a shattered Sea of Consciousness exert such a terrifying Divine Sense pressure?
It seed that without lifting a finger, just one look was enough to shatter his courage and kill him!
Sect Leader Liao was deeply frightened.
This was when that person was down and out, with only a tenth of his Cultivation and power. If he were in his pri, what an overpowering presence he must have had...
No wonder so many people, in their efforts to deal with him, had to be extrely careful and use all their wits...
This person was truly fearso!
Sect Leader Liao cald his mind and asked about the crux of the matter,
"Chief Elder, what should we do now?"
The Chief Elder glanced at Sect Leader Liao with an emotionless face, but felt irritated inside:
"The mont sothing happens, you ask what to do. Do you look anything like a Sect Leader at all?"
"How can you shoulder great responsibilities and revitalize the Five Elents Sect in this manner?"
The Chief Elder said, "Postpone..."
Before he could finish, Sect Leader Liao interjected with a wry smile, "We can't postpone any longer..."
Just one look from that person is enough to make tremble in fear.
If we keep delaying and he looks at a few more tis, my courage might not shatter, but my Taoist Heart might.
How can we dare to delay further?
The Chief Elder frowned.
Sect Leader Liao stood to the side, holding his breath, and after a long mont said slowly,
"Why not just let them learn?"
"No way!"
The Chief Elder firmly replied.
He looked at Sect Leader Liao with an icy gaze, "We must never allow them to learn!"
"As I've said before, this Formation, even if it becos obsolete, must only perish within our Five Elents Sect!"
"Even if no one can master it, even if it's lost forever, it must not fall into the hands of outsiders!"
Sect Leader Liao was sowhat troubled, "Then..."
We cannot allow them to learn, but we also dare not refuse them outright.
We in the Five Elents Sect cannot afford to offend that person...
The Chief Elder also understood the dilemma, and with a flicker in his murky eyes, said, "We shall set so trials."
Trials?
Sect Leader Liao hesitated, "There doesn't seem to be such a rule within the Sect..."
"There is one starting now," said the Chief Elder casually.

As expected of the Chief Elder, he has lived long and has a thick skin.
Sect Leader Liao muttered to himself and then asked,
"But these trials... How shall we conduct them? Who should be tested? Mr. Zhuang, or his disciple?"
The Chief Elder's eyes turned cold, "Would you stop and think? Mr. Zhuang... who can test him? Who is qualified to test him?"
Sect Leader Liao's eyes grew cold, but he didn't beco angry. He just nodded slightly.
That ant his disciple would be the one to be tested.
"Chief Elder, what exactly do you plan to test him with?"
The Chief Elder spoke gravely, "Host a Tao Discussion eting."
"A Tao Discussion eting... to compare formations?"
The Chief Elder nodded.
Sect Leader Liao was hesitant, "But who will compete?"
The Chief Elder frowned and said,
"The Elders and Instructors within the Sect obviously won't do, for that would clearly be bullying the weak, and Mr. Zhuang would definitely not agree. Therefore... it must be a comparison of formations amongst disciples..."
"The Inner Sect Disciples will compete..."
"His disciple must win over all our Five Elents Sect's Inner Sect Disciples in formation arrays, in order to learn our Sect Protecting Five Elents Spirit Formation!"
Sect Leader Liao said quietly, "Chief Elder, are you serious?"
The Chief Elder looked displeased.
Sect Leader Liao reminded him, "Apart from everything else, his young disciple is already a First-Rate Formation Master..."
A genuine, value-for-money First-Rate Formation Master at that...
At present, none of the Five Elents Sect's Inner Sect Disciples could reach such position during the stage of Qi Refinent.
How could they possibly compete?
Do you intend to let him publicly embarrass our Five Elents Sect?
And are we voluntarily presenting our face for him to slap...
Sect Leader Liao was sowhat speechless.
But the Chief Elder shook his head, "Not at all!"
Sect Leader Liao didn't understand.
The Chief Elder retorted, "Amongst the Inner Sect, aren't there so disciples who are of First-Rate standard but have repeatedly failed their assessnts?"
Sect Leader Liao nodded, "There are."
The Chief Elder sighed in relief, "Then that will do."
