Chapter 270: Chapter 270 I Suck!
As the Big Array erged, all the Martial Artists prepared to take the examination for the Three Major Academies, their eyes revealing excitent and agitation.
Once they passed the examination, they would be students of the Three Major Academies!
In the region of Lanqu County City, countless Martial Artists dread of entering the Three Major Academies to beco one of its mbers.
And now, they had the opportunity to fight for it.
Even just this chance was enough to make many people envious.
“Activate the Human Formation!”
From the high platform, Mu Liantian’s voice thundered like a clap of thunder, resonating across the entire square.
As his words fell, the Big Array in the center of the square suddenly beca hazy.
Clusters of fog swirled within it, obscuring the view from the outside.
At the sa ti, on the front side of the Big Array, there appeared nurous entrances, each over a man tall.
These entrances were neatly arranged, stretching from left to right, adding up to one hundred Big Array entrances.
“First area’s examinees, arrange to enter the Big Array, prepare!” Mu Liantian issued his command.
Under his order, the Armored Guards of the Prince Manor began sorting the examinees of the first area into squads.
Every squad consisted of one hundred people, who would enter the Big Array at the sa ti.
Quickly, one hundred people ca before the one hundred entrances of the Big Array, waiting for the command to enter.
“Rember, you have half an hour.
Those who cannot pass through the Human Formation within half an hour will fail the examination.
Those who pass within half an hour will succeed!”
“Enter now!”
Following Mu Liantian’s command, the hundred young Martial Artists charged towards the entrances like hungry wolves descending upon food, each one of them vigorously stirring up the Primordial Energy within their bodies to rush in at the fastest speed.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred figures vanished into the array.
From the outside, it was impossible to see the conditions within the array.
“First area, second squad prepare!” Mu Liantian’s voice did not relent.
After the first squad entered, the second squad imdiately prepared.
On the square, the Martial Artists taking the examination were divided into ten areas, each area containing thousands of young Martial Artists waiting to be examined.
And Jing Yan’s area was the sixth area.
“First area, second squad enter, third squad prepare!”
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
One squad after another of Martial Artists continuously entered the Human Formation.
Each squad contained one hundred Martial Artists.
“Brother Jing Yan, that Big Array doesn’t seem very large, how can it accommodate so many people at the sa ti?” Jing Luoyu watched as Martial Artists continuously entered the Big Array, full of curiosity.
“The inside of the Big Array forms its own space.
It doesn’t look very big from the outside, but it’s actually quite spacious inside!” Jing Yan had entered this Big Array before, so he had a certain understanding of the inside.
“I see!” Jing Luoyu nodded in sudden realization.
As ti passed, more and more Martial Artists entered the Big Array.
Around thirty minutes later, so Martial Artists began to erge from the exit of the Big Array.
“Lu Chao, well done!” An elderly man with white whiskers called out from the high platform.
The first Martial Artist to erge from the Human Formation was clearly nad Lu Chao.
The Lu Family was one of the Great Families of Lanqu County City.
There were Four Great Families within Lanqu County City, naly the Lu, Wen, Yuan, and Cai Families!
These Four Great Families held a superior status, incomparable to other clans, standing as the top-tier families of Lanqu County City.
Behind the Four Great Families were more than a dozen first-rate families, with the Chen Family being a standout among these.
Although not comparable to the Four Great Families, it was still a behemoth in its own right.
Even the Four Great Families would not put too much pressure on the Chen Family in case of a conflict.
Subsequently, several Martial Artists strutted out from the Big Array, one after another.
They were the cream of the crop among their peers.
Most of these earliest Martial Artists to erge were mbers of the major families of Lanqu County City.
Those coming from smaller cities below were a minority.
However, the first batch of Martial Artists who entered the Big Array had only past half their allotted ti; they still had a chance.
The number of those passing through the Big Array later, particularly those hailing from smaller cities below, would be more significant.
In conclusion, the majority of the most excellent Martial Artists were mbers of the great families of Lanqu County City.
This fact had never changed; individually, those Martial Artists from the smaller cities below truly struggled to compare with the scions of the great families of Lanqu County City.
However, in terms of overall numbers, the descendants of Lanqu County City’s great families could definitely not compare with the Martial Artists coming from the cities below.
Ultimately, the majority of those joining the Three Major Academies were Martial Artists from the cities below.
Half an hour later.
“Swish!
Swish!
Swish!”
Several figures abruptly appeared on one side of the Big Array.
These were so of the earliest entrants into the Big Array, and they had been eliminated.
Unable to pass through the Big Array in half an hour, they were teleported out.
Those who failed had sullen faces, yet they were helpless.
They had failed, and they had not passed this examination round.
The number of Martial Artists in the first area dwindled, and just over half an hour after the assessnt began, those from the second area started entering the Big Array.
Next ca the third, fourth, and fifth areas.
Three hours later, it was finally the turn for the Martial Artists of the sixth area to enter the Big Array.
“Don’t be nervous; just treat it as a training experience.
Of course, it’s best if you pass, but even if you don’t, there will still be chances in the future,” Jing Yan said with a smile to Jing Luoyu.
“Yes,” Jing Luoyu nodded heavily upon seeing Jing Yan’s expression.
If Jing Yan himself could remain so calm even after being blacklisted by the Three Major Academies, then what was there to fear from a single failure?
If he failed this ti, he would surely succeed the next.
Under the guidance of the Prince Manor’s guards, Jing Yan and Jing Luoyu also headed towards the front of the Big Array.
On the high platform, Mu Liantian gave a barely perceptible nod to Jing Yan, his eyes filled with amusent.
Jing Yan too nodded slightly toward Mu Liantian.
Standing still at one of the entrances to the Big Array!
“Enter!”
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh!”
A series of figures, like arrows released from the bow, sped into the entrance with the highest velocity.
But Jing Yan just smiled slightly and walked forward slowly.
In the blink of an eye, the other ninety-nine Martial Artists in Jing Yan’s team vanished inside the Big Array, leaving only Jing Yan to stroll leisurely toward the entrance.
Naturally, Jing Yan attracted countless gazes.
“Isn’t that Jing Yan?”
“He was just blacklisted by the Three Major Academies, what is he doing now?
Could it be that he’s given up and doesn’t want to pass the assessnt anymore?
Well, whether he passes or not, the result is the sa!”
“But if he truly doesn’t care about passing or failing, why doesn’t he just give up on the assessnt?”
“I don’t understand, maybe he really has gone crazy!
Hmph, everyone else is racing against the clock, yet he’s as laid back as if taking a stroll in his own courtyard.
Seeing his attitude, I really want to smack him!”
“Forget about him, it’s almost our turn, let’s get ready.”
Under the watchful eyes filled with curiosity, Jing Yan continued to get closer to the entrance.
“Gao Jie, didn’t you say Jing Yan’s strength is comparable to a Late-stage Innate Martial Artist?
Now, let’s see how long he takes to pass through the Human Formation,” Shang Qu said, sneering as he watched Jing Yan, speaking to Deacon Gao Jie.
“Oh,” Gao Jie responded noncommittally.
Jing Yan finally entered the Big Array, and the scene before him transford.
Ahead was a dark passageway, seemingly empty.
However, there was a pressure within the space.
Jing Yan continued to lift his feet and step forward, the corners of his mouth curling slightly upward.
One step… Two steps…
Jing Yan’s stride was steady, and though the pressure in the space intensified as he delved deeper, it did not impede his progress in the slightest.
Primordial Energy circulated subtly as Jing Yan carried on walking forward.
The deeper he went, the greater the pressure beca.
Martial Artists had to continuously stimulate their own Primordial Energy to counteract it and move forward, but this was no challenge for Jing Yan—he didn’t need to exert much effort at all.
“Hm?”
“This…” As he walked, Jing Yan’s eyes suddenly brightened with a flash of surprise.
He casually tried to channel the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill and discovered that his body could actually absorb the Mysterious Energy within the passageway.
Jing Yan had participated in the Three Major Academies assessnt last ti and had also entered this kind of passageway within the Big Array; he was well aware that there was a mysterious energy within the passageway that obstructed Martial Artists.
However, this ti he found that he could absorb this mysterious energy.
This energy was not Primordial Energy, and Jing Yan couldn’t discern what it truly was.
But when he activated the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill, he shockingly found his body could absorb this energy.
“How is this possible?” Jing Yan was startled.
His realm was at the Peak of Innate Middle Stage, and he had already reached the limit of Primordial Energy accumulation for this stage.
Not even with the aid of resources like Top-grade Spirit Stones or Guiyuan Pills could he enhance his Primordial Energy further.
But now, he could absorb this energy.
“I absorb!” Since he could absorb the energy in the passageway, Jing Yan certainly wouldn’t miss the opportunity, promptly driving the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill to its limit to greedily absorb it.
Shortly thereafter, Jing Yan’s face revealed an expression of wild joy.
He discovered that the robustness of his Primordial Energy had actually improved.
Indeed, his realm had not advanced, but the quantity of Primordial Energy within the Fog Vortex had increased.
Moreover, such augntation was significant enough to be easily perceived, which ant it was substantial.
Already at the Innate Middle Stage realm, Jing Yan’s robustness of Primordial Energy was comparable to that of an Innate Peak Expert, and making a noticeable improvent to his Primordial Energy was no simple feat.
“I absorb!
I absorb!
I absorb, absorb, absorb!” Jing Yan even closed his eyes, frantically drawing in the passageway’s Mysterious Energy.
This kind of energy couldn’t be absorbed by ordinary Martial Artists.
Jing Yan couldn’t absorb it the last ti he participated in the assessnt, but this ti things were different.
He felt that it was likely related to his practice of the Sky Vaulting First Divine Skill.
