There is a vast square on the back mountain of Dongluan Peak, which is the fighting ground of the array court. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoListening to Lu Xu's introduction, this fighting arena is very different from ordinary competitive fighting arenas. First of all, it can also be used as a general fighting field, and because there are strong prohibitions around it, it is even safer and firmer. In addition, in view of the particularity of the formation, some prohibitions and magic circles are specially arranged, which can prevent the destruction of the fighting field, and at the same time, it also has the function of monitoring the situation of the monks in the field, which can not only find problems and deal with them in time, but also check the level of their ability. In addition, there are some common and some advanced magic circle equipment, which can be used by the monks and practiced.

According to Lu Xu, the number of people in the formation court is not large, there are only about fifty people in total, but they are all disciples with formation talents, there are two disciples in the True Dan Period, there are more than 20 disciples in the Foundation Building Period, and the others are all disciples in the Spirit Movement Period. This disciple named Cao Jinsheng can be said to be the number one master under the formation masters of the True Dan Period, except for the two True Dan Stage Formation Masters, he is already in the False Dan realm, and it is very likely that he will advance to the True Dan Stage in the next few decades.

"Senior Nephew Cao, it's up to you to tell Senior Nephew how to test his formation talent. Lu Xu said to Cao Jinsheng, with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Yes, Dean Lu. Cao Jinsheng replied respectfully.

This Cao Jinsheng looked young, less than thirty, with a serious face. After meeting and getting to know Yu Ting, I listened to Lu Xu talk about the origin and purpose of Yu Ting. Probably because there were very few disciples from foreign sects who came to the court to practice, Cao Jinsheng thought about how to conduct the test for a while.

"That's it," Cao Jinsheng thought for a while, and then said, "It's still divided into two parts according to the method of our array court when recruiting disciples from the Spirit Stage when they are admitted to the hospital. Part of it is the basic formation test, if Senior Brother Yu has no problem and passes successfully, then try the formation with me, of course, I will just use some very simple formations, which will not endanger my life. ”

"Well, I think it's good. Lu Xu nodded, and then asked Yu Ting: "Nephew, what do you think?"

"That's what Dean Yilu and Senior Brother Cao mean. Yu Ting did not hesitate and nodded yes.

"Okay, then Senior Nephew Cao, you can tell the specific test content to the Nephew of the Language. Lu Xu commanded.

"Okay, Dean Lu. "Cao Jinsheng should arrive.

It turned out that the first part of the test was to use some magic circle equipment provided in the fighting field, according to Cao Jinsheng's requirements, arrange the magic circle, and complete a certain function after activation.

Cao Jinsheng saw that Lu Xu nodded in agreement, so he led Yu Ting to an area in the Fighting Law Arena where the array equipment was placed, like a storage room.

"Senior Brother Yu, this is a array. As soon as he moved his hand, a array disc flew out of the storage room, appeared in his hand, and handed it to Yu Ting: "I need you to find those matching array flags from the pile of array flags in the back, and then lay down the magic circle and activate it." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and saw dozens of array flags of various colors appear in front of the two of them, floating in the air.

"I'll give you a stick of incense, let's get started. Cao Jinsheng didn't know when he had an extra sandalwood in his hand, and with a slight shake of his hand, it ignited.

Yu Ting took the array plate, didn't look at it, and waved his hand, only to see six hexagonal array flags flying out of a large number of array flags in front of him. Then I saw him wave his hand and point a little at the six different positions in the distance, and the six array flags flew towards these six places with a whizz, and soon disappeared into the ground.

Then Yu Ting read a few words in his mouth, and then played against the plate a little more, only to hear a bang, and a light curtain suddenly rose, colorful, and beautiful.

"This is a set of Liuding Liujia Formation, right?" Yu Ting nodded with a smile and asked Cao Jinsheng.

At this time, the incense in Cao Jinsheng's hand had just begun to burn, and the first wisp of green smoke had not yet dispersed.

Of course, Yu Ting kept a hand, and with his ability, he didn't need to wave his hand so troublesomely, and he only needed to move his mind to complete the arrangement. But he knew that it was better to keep a low profile. It's just that he's showing his hand so much now, and he can't seem to keep a low profile.

"This... Cao Jinsheng froze for a moment, looked at the magic circle, and then looked at the Yuting, not knowing what to say.

"Haha, the nephew of the language master really has a good formation attainment, good, good!" Lu Xu, who was in the distance, laughed when he saw it, and said yes repeatedly. But he immediately instructed Cao Jinsheng: "But it's not enough, Senior Nephew Cao, go on." ”

Tang Yuansong on the side was also stunned at first, but immediately smiled and nodded.

"Oh, good. Cao Jinsheng came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "The following test is not so easy." ”

After speaking, he took out another array plate and handed it to Yu Ting, and after taking the array flags in front of him back into the storage room, he waved his hand again, and more array flags floated in front of him. Unlike the previous ones, these array flags are all the same.

"Senior Brother Yu, the purpose of this test is the same as the first one, except that the formation flags are all the same. Cao Jinsheng introduced.

"Okay. Yu Ting took the array plate, and his face was not different.

The result was the same this time, the first wisp of green smoke of the incense in Cao Jinsheng's hand had just risen and not yet dissipated, and a curtain of light had already risen in front of them.

"This... Cao Jinsheng was even more stunned.

"Then that's the last test for the first part. Cao Jinsheng was stunned for a long time, came back to his senses, and showed a trace of unwillingness in his eyes: "Next, I will control a spiritual weapon treasure to fly on this fighting magic field, you can use the existing magic array equipment here, up to five magic circles, activate them in time when my flying spirit weapon passes, and trap this spiritual weapon treasure of mine." If you don't succeed in trapping the Flying Spirit Weapon after activating the circle, you can deactivate it and activate it again the next time it flies over the sky. In addition, the range of these magic circles cannot exceed two zhang, and they must be arranged on the entire fighting field, and the position is determined by yourself. You still have a stick of incense to finish it. ”

"Oh, okay. After Yu Ting understood, he nodded expressionlessly.

Then he randomly selected five sets of magic array equipment from the pile of magic array equipment provided by Cao Jinsheng, and then waved his hand, moving his mouth to arrange the five sets of magic array flags into the fighting law arena one after another, and the other five array disks floated in front of him.

"It's okay, please ask Senior Brother Cao to release the flying spirit weapon. Yu Ting nodded at Cao Jinsheng and said.

Cao Jinsheng also nodded, gritted his teeth slightly, and as soon as his hand moved, he saw a two-foot-long transparent short sword that was almost impossible to see flew out, and after circling, it flew towards the fighting field. Soon, the five sets of magic circles arranged by the Yu Ting were flying around at a high speed, which was dazzling.

"Let's get started. Cao Jinsheng casually lit a stick of incense and said to Yu Ting.

"Huh!?" Lu Xu was a little surprised, and hummed softly, but immediately continued to look at it with interest, and did not speak.

But Tang Yuansong's brows furrowed, it was obvious that this Cao Jinsheng was a little difficult to speak, he actually sacrificed a high-grade spirit weapon, not an ordinary spirit weapon. And the flight speed of this short sword is not slow, although it is much slower than the flying sword of Jian Xiu, but it is still a lot faster than ordinary treasures. Let an ordinary magic circle trap it in an instant, can you do this? Tang Yuansong shook his head in his heart, he didn't have confidence.

The flight range of this short sword is hundreds of zhang, and each of these five sets of magic circles is less than two zhang of the range of action, in addition to removing the partially vacated range on the hemispherical light curtain, the range of action that can actually cover the fast-flying short sword at once is actually less than one zhang, can Yu Ting complete this test?

The three people present, including Cao Jinsheng, didn't think that Yu Ting could do it, and Cao Jinsheng also knew that it would be difficult to complete it even if he played by himself. Of course, in fact, even if Yu Ting failed to complete this test, they would not say that Yu Ting did not pass the test, and the last item in the first part was obviously Cao Jinsheng's temporary intention, wanting to embarrass Yu Ting and save some face for him and their court.

Looking at the short sword scurrying in the low air on the fighting field, Yu Ting was still expressionless.

It can be seen that Cao Jinsheng not only sacrificed a high-grade spiritual weapon, but also deliberately made it fly not slowly, and also tried not to fly through the magic circle he arranged, and the intention of deliberately making things difficult was very obvious.

Yu Ting didn't move, just quietly watched the short sword on the fighting field scurrying there.

"Half a pillar of incense!" Cao Jinsheng reminded, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

Yu Ting still looked at the fighting arena without moving.

"There's only a small piece of incense left!" Cao Jinsheng's eyes were even more proud, now he could get back some face, although the means were a bit excessive.

"Alright!" Yu Ting suddenly shouted with his hand on the plate.

"What!?" Cao Jinsheng was about to say that it was time to say again, when he heard Yu Ting's shout, and was startled.

Hurriedly looked at the fighting field, and at the same time sensed his short sword, and sure enough, he saw that his short sword on the fighting field had been covered by a gray light curtain, and it was still scurrying inside.

In fact, Yu Ting could have trapped this short sword a long time ago, don't look at it not flying slowly, but because it was not a flying sword, and Cao Jinsheng didn't let it fly with all its strength, so in Yu Ting's eyes, it was as slow as a snail. In addition, the current Yu Ting has been trained in the sheep intestine waterway for ten years, and his ability to see everything is already very strong, and he actually only needs to move his mind to trap this short sword.

"Haha, the nephew of the language teacher is really surprising, good, good!" Lu Xu was stunned for a moment, and then cheered with joy. It seems that although this person is arrogant, he is also a person who loves talents very much.

"Dean Lu has won the award, and I am just lucky. Yu Ting hurriedly said.

"Whether it's luck or not, but it's really extraordinary, I can't say I'm 100% sure that I can do it. Lu Xu said with a smile.

"Dean Lu is too modest. Yu Ting naturally didn't dare to be high-profile, and hurriedly responded.

"Okay, I don't need to use the battle formation with Master Cao's nephew in the back, the attainment of this formation is far beyond my imagination. Lu Xu continued to smile and looked at Cao Jinsheng.

"The disciple still wants to have a discussion with Senior Brother Yu, I don't know if Senior Brother Yu is interested?" Cao Jinsheng was also stunned just now, and now he came to his senses.

"This... Of course Lu Xu knew what Cao Jinsheng meant, he obviously wanted to make things difficult for Yu Ting just now, but he lost face again, so he naturally refused to give up, but he really wanted to see the battle between the two in his heart.

"I think forget it, unless the nephew of the language teacher also wants to insist on the competition. "Tang Yuansong came over to play the round.

So far, Yuting has given him a great shock, and the significance of the next competition is actually not much, it is no longer a fighting array to compete, but Cao Jinsheng is a little vindictive.

Yu Ting was also hesitating, he didn't need to be so high-profile, it was enough to allow himself to enter the Formation Court to practice, and now it seemed that this goal had been achieved. But looking at Cao Jinsheng's appearance, he didn't want to give up, and Lu Xu also had a default attitude.

"Senior Brother Yu isn't scared, right?" Cao Jinsheng used the agitation method.

"That's not going to happen," Yu Ting smiled slightly: "I want to know what Dean Lu means, if Senior Lu thinks that I still need to continue testing, I will definitely not refuse." ”

"Master Yu's nephew must be qualified enough to come to our formation court to practice, as for whether you need to learn the formation with Master Cao's nephew. Lu Xu smiled and said with some excitement: "In this way, I think you can use the existing formation equipment provided by this fighting law field to learn a thing or two, and you don't need to use any means to attack the other party." If the teacher and nephew show more ability, we will be able to better organize your study content. ”

Lu Xu's words were good, which made Yu Ting unable to shirk and gave him a certain opportunity. In his eyes, Cao Jinsheng, as an elite disciple of the Luan Feng Sect Formation Court, had formation equipment on his body that could not be compared to the Yu Court, so it would definitely be a big advantage when he tried it. Now everyone uses the same equipment, and that's a fair competition.

"Okay, since Dean Lu agrees with this, then I'll talk to Senior Brother Cao. Yu Ting nodded.

"Okay, then let me appreciate the formation attainments of the genius disciples of the Qiyun Sect. Cao Jinsheng also nodded and said.

In the end, at Lu Xu's suggestion, both of them were restricted to using only five sets of magic circles. After each set of magic circles is broken by the other party, it can no longer be used, after three incense sticks, in the end, who has more unbroken magic circles left, even if the winner; if the five sets of magic circles are broken by the other party, then it depends on who breaks fast. Since the magic circles in the fighting field are relatively low-level, and the slightly stronger foundation building period monks can break it with brute force and take a little time, so for the two of them, it is to see who can quickly break the magic circle laid by the other party.

For the sake of fairness, Cao Jinsheng asked Yu Ting to familiarize himself with all the magic circles provided in the Fighting Law Arena first, and only after an hour did they start to compete.

"Who will break the formation first?" Lu Xu asked.

"I'll do it first. Cao Jinsheng shouted first, eager to try.

"Okay, then ask the nephew of the language master to go to the formation first. Lu Xu said to Yu Ting with a smile.

"Okay, Dean Lu. Yu Ting did not hesitate and immediately nodded in response.

Then I saw him wave his hand, move his mouth and chant the trick, and quickly laid down five magic circles.

When everyone saw it, they were all slightly stunned. Lu Xu's eyes also showed a trace of excitement, and with a slight wave of his hand, three sandalwood sticks suddenly appeared, floated aside, and clicked on one of them, the incense immediately ignited, and then said to Cao Jinsheng: "Senior nephew Cao, you start to break the formation." ”

"Yes, Dean Lu. Cao Jinsheng responded, his figure disappeared in a flash, and the next moment he appeared in front of the magic circle of the Yu Ting.

The appearance of the five magic circles arranged by the Yuting is very peculiar, because four of them are the same magic circles located on the four corners, and after being excited, they form a formation flag after forming a light curtain, and then the four formation flags of the fifth magic circle are just a little outside of them, and after being excited, they just cover the four small circles in front of them. Since the eyes of the new circles formed by the first four circles overlap with the eyes of the fifth circle, the five circles will be strengthened a lot. In particular, this fifth circle also has a characteristic, that is, if there is a monk sitting on the inner array to maintain it, it will be more stable.

Now Yu Ting did not enter the circle, but still stood outside to maintain the circle. Of course, he can stand in the magic circle to maintain it, but the effect may not be much better, because it has no effect on the previous four magic circles, and now that their formations have coincided, they have already achieved a solid purpose. These lower-level magic circles are not strong for monks, but they will also be strong with them, and they all have a certain upper limit.

Cao Jinsheng first spent a full stick of incense, but he only checked around the magic circle under Yu Ting's arrangement, and did not break the formation.

When the second incense stick was lit, I saw that his hand suddenly moved, and more than a dozen array flags flew out, submerging around the four array flags of the outermost circle. "Get up!" a sound sounded from his mouth, and a scene that surprised Yu Ting appeared.

I saw that the four formation flags of the outermost magic circle he laid down also appeared on top of four light curtains, covering the four array flags respectively. Of course, they didn't really cover every array flag, but it was like adding an almost hemispherical light curtain to the outside of his circle light curtain, the edges touching together, but not extending inside.

Then, I saw Cao Jinsheng casually sacrifice several treasures, including the transparent short sword from before, and slammed towards the edge where the two light curtains at one of the array flags touched.

Yu Ting quickly felt that the place where the formation flag was starting to shake, and it was likely to break soon. Frightened, he hurriedly increased his mana to maintain it. But as mentioned earlier, the quality of this magic circle is limited, and its own strength is not enough, if it weren't for the fact that Yu Ting used them to form such a mutually controlling structure, and simply arranged them one by one, Cao Jinsheng would not have to be so troublesome at all, just sacrifice treasures, and break them all with a few bangs.

When the second pillar of incense was about to burn out, the outermost circle finally couldn't hold on, and with a bang, the first array flag was broken. Soon the second, third, and fourth flags were broken. Without the mutual cooperation of the outer circle, the four small-scale circles inside were quickly broken by Cao Jinsheng one by one.

Yu Ting couldn't help but secretly praise himself in his heart, this Cao Jinsheng was indeed a formation master, just this hand broke the formation with his hand, and there was also a means that could make his own magic array come into contact with the light curtain of the method array. I couldn't help but feel more confident that I could learn something useful to me in Luan Feng Sect.

At this time, half of the third incense stick remained.

"Yes, yes. Lu Xu raised his eyebrows: "The nephew of the language master formed a formation with a formation, and the nephew of Cao Shi broke the formation with a formation, which are extremely valuable attainments. Nice, nice!"

Tang Yuansong also smiled and nodded frequently, of course, he appreciated Yu Ting more. The disciples of the Luan Feng Sect Formation Court should have such formation attainments, but Yu Ting was very unoptimistic at first.

"Master Cao's nephew's achievement is to use two pillars and a half incense time to crack all five magic circles of Master and Nephew. Lu Xu announced, and turned to Yu Ting: "Now it's the turn of Master Yu's nephew to break Master Cao's magic circle." ”
