Tianxing Wufu West District!

A large mid-lake plaza is built here, and flowing living water surrounds the square.

The arch bridge with a wide and magnificent bank spans a river channel more than ten meters wide from the south to the square in the middle of the lake.

In the morning, Chu Zhen came to this square with Li Huiye, Zhou Lu, He Qingyuan and several others...... This is the task that Xilan gave to a few people yesterday, to defeat at least twenty opponents in the 'Phantom Killing Array'......

"This is the first time I've come to the 'Phantom Killing Array'! Senior Brother Qingyuan, what is the formation like?" Li Huiye was a little expectant and a little nervous.

He Qingyuan smiled, and then replied, "The Phantom Killing Array is a spirit array that the Heavenly Star Martial Mansion invited the three senior sorcerers in the Imperial Capital City to jointly arrange, in order to build this formation, this academy has spent a lot of materials and financial resources, and the top-grade Yuan Crystal alone is more than five million......

"What? five million top-grade Yuan Crystals?"

Li Huiye couldn't help but gasp, and even Chu Zhen couldn't help but narrow his eyes, showing a look of amazement.

"That's right, plus other precious materials and materials, the total cost of this Phantom Killing Array is nearly 10 million top-grade Yuan Crystal Stones......" He Qingyuan's eyebrows also sighed, "At that time, when this Phantom Killing Array was built, the Martial Mansion was in its heyday. Its function is to train the trainees' ability to fight and kill the enemy. ”

"When the Phantom Killing Array is activated, the students who are in the formation will enter the illusion, and there will be a variety of opponents in the illusion...... The degree of reality is almost exactly the same as reality, just like fighting the enemy in reality......"

Li Huiye's eyes lit up, and then he asked, "Senior Brother Qingyuan, since the academy has such a good formation, why did we go to the Tianchi Mountain Range to practice before?" ”

"You're thinking it's simple enough. Liu Yue glanced at the other party angrily, "No matter how real the illusion is, it is only an illusion after all, although you will be injured in the illusion killing array, but when your life is in danger, you can choose to quit." And in reality, when you encounter a life crisis, where do you retreat?"

"I know, senior sister!" Li Huiye replied weakly.

Several people couldn't help but smile at each other and shook their heads.

"I'm a little curious......" Chu Zhen, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" several people looked at each other in surprise.

"The Heavenly Star Martial Mansion was the head of all the high-ranking martial arts in the Imperial Capital City in its heyday, why did it fall to the point it is today?"

Chu Zhen said the confusion in his heart, if you really want to talk about it, the teachers of the Tianxing Martial Mansion are not bad, Xi Lan, Wuying, Song Cheng Hunting, etc...... There is no shortage of excellent coaching staff, and there are some equipment conditions such as the stake array and the phantom killing array, so it stands to reason that even if it is jointly suppressed by other academies, it is impossible to fall to the bottom of the field.

However, as soon as Chu Zhen's question came out.

Everyone looked at each other as if they were looking at monsters, and they were all stunned.

"What's wrong?" Chu Zhen was a little uncomfortable when everyone looked at him.

"That, do you really don't know or fake don't know?" Zhou Lu asked tentatively.

"What's really fake?"

But seeing that the confusion on Chu Zhen's face was even worse, everyone glanced at each other, and then Zhou Lu said cautiously, "It is not the high-ranking martial arts of the Imperial Capital City that really suppresses the Heavenly Star Martial Mansion, but the supreme ruler of the Holy Star Dynasty......"

The supreme ruler?

"Royal?" Chu Zhen's pupils shrank involuntarily.

Several people did not speak, and they all acquiesced.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhou Lu pondered for a moment, hesitated for a moment, but still replied, "Back then, the Heavenly Star Martial Mansion was prosperous and gathered countless geniuses, and there was a young man named 'Gu Tong' who was even more brilliant like a star, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the first person among the young generation in the Imperial Capital City at that time......

Gu Tong is extremely talented, and he is hardworking.

But the sky is jealous of the talent, Gu Tong and a very background figure formed a grudge, Gu Tong was angry, killed the man, after that, the person's family led the crowd to the Tianxing Martial Mansion, to ask Dean Jiang to hand over the person.

Dean Jiang is also a reckless person, he thinks Gu Tong is innocent and refuses to hand him over.

In the end, the matter became more and more troublesome, and finally alarmed the royal family.

After passing through the layers of relationships, the royal family finally stood on the side of the family of the person who was killed, and ordered the Tianxing Martial Mansion to hand over the ancient pass.

In the face of the pressure of the royal family, Dean Jiang still wanted to protect Gutong, so he used the help of many friends to secretly send Gutong out of the imperial capital.

As soon as Gu Tong fled, the royal family was naturally angry with the Tianxing Martial Mansion.

However, since there was no clear evidence that Gu Tong was let go by Dean Jiang, it was difficult for the royal family to impose a conviction, after all, the Tianxing Martial Mansion was in full swing in the imperial capital city at that time.

However, the outcome of opposing the royal family can be imagined.

As a result, all kinds of suppression on the bright side and dark side followed, and after a few years, the Tianxing Martial Mansion finally fell here.

......

After listening to Zhou Lu's story, Chu Zhen also shook his head secretly, "Is the current king so unreasonable?"

"It is not His Majesty the Emperor who is in power today, but the Holy Empress Niangniang......"

"Zhou Lu!" He Qingyuan on the side directly opened his mouth to drink the other party.

Zhou Lu shrunk her neck, and suddenly realized that her words were a little too much.

He Qingyuan looked at Chu Zhen, Zhou Lu, and Li Huiye, and said in a solemn tone, "This kind of thing, just treat it as a boring conversation and laughter between our brothers and sisters, don't go to the bottom of it." ”

He Qingyuan is relatively wise and cautious.

He knew what to say and what not to say in this imperial capital...... Zhou Lu is relatively young and doesn't have much contact with things, so she will be a little open-mouthed.

Chu Zhen smiled slightly, "Got it, Senior Brother Qingyuan." ”

"Well, let's go! Today's first round of the Phantom Killing Array is about to start. ”

Immediately, everyone quickened their pace, walked across the arched bridge, and arrived at the square in the middle of the lake.

The diameter and length of the entire lake-center square are more than one kilometer, and the area is relatively vast.

On top of the square, a staircase was built in increasing levels.

The high platform is particularly peugeot, made of white jade, with a height of about two meters, and the length and width of the table are more than 100 meters, in a square shape.

On the high platform of the four directions, there are four jade pillars.

The jade pillars are located in four corners, each of which is about thirty meters long, and is carved with exquisite and intricate rune secret urns.

"The name of the four jade pillars is 'Spirit Jade Stone', which is used to gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for the operation of the Phantom Killing Array, and the cost of each spirit jade pillar is more than one million high-grade Yuan Crystal ......"

He Qingyuan explained to Chu Zhen and the others to ease the embarrassing atmosphere just now.

A single spiritual jade pillar is more than one million high-grade yuan crystals.

Chu Zhen suddenly felt that he had become an out-and-out poor person again, and the more than 1,000 high-grade Yuan Crystals on his body were not enough for a fraction of the cost of a spirit jade pillar.

At this moment, under the quadrangular platform, two or three hundred people had already gathered.

The people who came here every day to wait to use the Phantom Killing Array lined up in a long line.

The four personnel in charge of managing the operation of the Phantom Killing Array stood at the bottom of the steps, and one of them turned out to be one of the high-level mentors of the Tianchi Mountain Range, Luo Shan......

At that time, he went to the Tianchi Mountain Range to practice, led by the core mentor Xi Lan, and assisted by Zuo Mo and Luo Shan, two high-level mentors.

Later, because the team was going to go to Saint Bell City separately, Xi Lan ordered Luo Shan to return with the injured students and those who did not want to go to Saint Bell City.

"Why is Mentor Luo Shan here?" Zhou Lu asked casually.

"The Phantom Killing Array is not an ordinary talisman array, and when it is running, there must be a high-level mentor who manages it, and the high-level mentors are all on duty in turn. Liu Yue explained.

Chu Zhen and the others nodded, and let the high-level mentor take care of it here, which was enough to explain the unusual thing about this phantom killing array.

Immediately, under the leadership of He Qingyuan, Chu Zhen and his party did not line up at the back, but walked directly to the bottom of the front steps.

"Mentor Luo Shan......" He Qingyuan said politely.

"You're here!" Luo Shan smiled slightly, "Mentor Xilan has already greeted me, you guys should enter the battle first! ”

"Thank you!"

In the midst of the envy and noise of everyone in the audience, He Qingyuan, Liu Yue, Chu Zhen, Li Huiye, and Zhou Lu walked to the high platform of the four directions first.

"How can you cut the line? Even if you are a student of Tutor Xilan, you can't do this!"

"Shut up, you, don't you know how many referrals the core mentor has every month?"

"I really don't know. ”

"It's no wonder that you're not tidy, and you can't become a direct student of the core mentor. ”

"Tell me, aren't you the same yourself?"

......

The sound off the field was a little noisy, because there were many students who had to use the Phantom Killing Array every day, and after a month, they couldn't train in it once or twice.

Therefore, the academy stipulates that excellent students will be given lenient treatment.

The core mentor is responsible for recommending the quota, and those who get the recommended quota do not need to wait in line, and can directly train in the Phantom Killing Array.

Although this kind of thing is unfair to ordinary students, there is no absolutely fair thing in this world, the strong are embraced, and the weak are mediocre all their lives.

Everywhere, this is an indisputable fact.

As a few people ascended to the high platform, Chu Zhen suddenly felt a faint power fluctuation in the air, which originated from the defensive level of the Phantom Killing Array......

After all, it was a formation that the academy had built at a great cost, and its defensive performance must be perfect.

Even if he is a top powerhouse at the level of the Skyclave Realm, he can't easily destroy this place.

With a bit of curiosity and a faint excitement, Chu Zhen's gaze swept over the spirit jade pillars that stood on the four corners, and when he saw the exquisite mysterious rune secret urn on the spirit jade pillar, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"These runes are ......"
