Chapter 13 Test Formation
Wang Yicheng put down the food in his hand and walked over, only to see that the classmates in this circle were all smiling maliciously and looking at him.
"Hey, Wang Yicheng, I heard that you also signed up for the exam for the third-level class?" asked Li Te.
Li Teh was a typical aristocratic young man, richly dressed and covered in gold and jade, shining brightly. The face is also handsome, but it is arrogant and has a domineering expression.
"Yes. ”
"Haha!" Hearing Wang Yicheng's affirmative answer, the classmates laughed together.
The third-level class is the class of the third-level array mage, and there is an opportunity to take the assessment once a year. However, generally only second-level formation mages who have studied for three to five years will register for the exam. It has never been possible for a disciple like Wang Yicheng to learn from Wang Yicheng for less than a year and is in the Qi refining period.
"Hey, you are a Qi refining stage cultivator, how can you become a third-level formation mage, don't you know the iron law of rank?"
"Hee-hee, he's from a small place, so he probably hasn't heard of it. ”
"Haha!" The classmates in this circle laughed together again, only Ouyang Xiushan didn't laugh, she and Wang Yicheng took risks together, knowing that Wang Yicheng was not a fool, and was very shrewd, he must have his own reasons for doing this. Suddenly, her heart froze, Wang Yicheng had seen the first formula, could it be that he had already begun to learn the formation of the formula faction, only in that way would it be possible to depict the third-level formation during the qi refining period. Thinking of this, Ouyang Xiushan glanced at Wang Yicheng worriedly.
In the face of everyone's ridicule, Wang Yicheng just smiled, this is his character, and he is not easily angry. If you don't agree with a word, you will go on a killing spree, that's not his character.
At this time, there was a sound of argument in a corner of the hall, which was a circle of third-year students. There were seven or eight people, including Lecturer Ouyang Xiuxue.
The argument was between two young men, one was tall and thin, named Wu Zhiguang, and the other was not tall and looked very lean. It's called Wang Wei. Both of them were excellent students in the third-level class, and they were also very well-known young third-level formation mages in the capital.
The two were arguing about how to transform the attributes of the formation to increase their lethality. There are similarities with Wang Yicheng's rapid change of ice and fire attributes and killing the gold devouring monster.
The argument between the two is very distinctive, Wang Wei speaks quickly, thinks quickly, speaks like bursting beans, and analyzes the head of the way. Wu Zhiguang doesn't talk much, and he speaks slowly and logically. However, he is very thoughtful, and once he speaks, he can always grasp the point and refute the other party's point of view. Ouyang Xiuxue held a wine glass, muttered silently, and interjected a sentence from time to time.
Although the two of them are called students, their attainments in formation have reached the peak of third-level formation mages, but their cultivation is not enough. It is not yet possible to upgrade to a level 4 formation mage. Therefore, Ouyang Xiuxue does not pretend to be a lecturer. Instead, treat the two as equal discussion partners.
The conversation between the three of them was very enlightening in understanding the formation, and it quickly attracted the attention of many people in the hall. Not only the third-level formation mage students, but even many second-level students couldn't help but surround them.
Wang Yicheng was also deeply attracted, he had been studying the first formula these days and had a lot of ideas about the three-level formation.
Listening to the argument between the two, Wang Yicheng unconsciously connected his thoughts on the third-level formation these days. His thinking is more from the perspective of formulas. Some of the vague ideas slowly became real. But. There are still some key points that I can't grasp all the time. It's like some fireflies flying around, you can see it, but you can't catch it in your hand.
"Hmph, you see that kid is also pretending to be listening, can he understand?" a noble young man looked at Wang Yicheng with contempt. Said to Leete.
Li Te sneered and said, "There is also a game at this party, I will make this kid a big ugly, hehe, sister Xiushan, don't you hate this kid very much! I'll give you anger in a while." Li Teh turned his head and smiled flatteringly at Ouyang Xiushan.
Ouyang Xiushan's eyebrows frowned slightly, since the adventure with Wang Yicheng, she didn't hate Wang Yicheng so much. Litt's sycophant is a vain shot.
"Everyone!" Li Teh stood in the middle of the hall with a wine glass and said loudly: "Next, our Li family has arranged a small competition, and I hope everyone will participate enthusiastically." ”
The two red-faced third-class students finally stopped arguing and turned to look at Leete. Wang Yicheng glared at Li Te, a little annoyed in his heart, he had a key point in the three-level formation, and he never understood it, just now when he heard the two of them arguing, he vaguely seemed to grasp the point, but unfortunately he was interrupted by a word.
"Hee-hee, the rules of our party, there is a small competition before the dance. The boy who wins the competition can be the first to invite the girl to dance, and the girl cannot refuse. What is the contest going on? Everyone, please come with me. Litt laughed and sold a pass.
The crowd followed Litt out of the hall to a huge field in the house. This is the venue for family competition, with a radius of hundreds of zhang, which is equivalent to the size of two football fields.
"This competition is in this venue, and there is a third-level formation arranged in the venue, and there will be some vicious third-level creatures. The reward is in the center of the formation, and whoever can pass the formation first and enter the center will be rewarded and become the winner. This competition is only for students in the second class, how about it? Are you interested?" said Li Te, with a smile.
The boys in the second-level class shook their heads one after another, this is the formation of the Li family, how can it be possible to compete with Li Te, the winner must be Li Te, how can anyone compete!
"Why, didn't anyone participate?" Seeing that everyone did not raise their hands, Li Tet smiled again, "Do you know what the reward is?"
A servant stepped forward, took out a box, opened the lid, and showed it to everyone. There was an exclamation of surprise, and it turned out that the box was a fist-sized, lion-cub-like beast. This is a beast baby, a beast baby who took the essence of the body after the demon beast was killed. I saw that this beast baby was imprisoned with a talisman attached to it, but it was still grinning and struggling, obviously it was also a vicious underground creature before it was born.
The beast baby is indeed a treasure, killing a demon saint and taking away the beast baby, I am afraid that it was done by several ancestors in the capital, and finally returned to the ancestor of the Li family for some reason. However, the Li family is willing to take out such a precious thing as a bet for a game, which is really generous enough.
"Does anyone want to attend?" asked Litt with a smile.
A few of the boys were a little eager to try, though. After thinking about it, he quickly shook his head again, the Li family is not a fool, taking out such a precious thing as a bet, I am afraid that I already have the certainty of victory, and it will be a shame for others to go up.
Wang Yicheng looked at the beast baby. Very greedy, what he lacks most now is money, if he can get this beast baby to sell for money, he will almost recover his strength.
At this time, several boys had already signed up, but they were still a few short of the 10-place places.
Li Teh smiled and said, "Old rules, let's draw lots!"
A servant came with a large box containing the names of all the second-graders. Litte was drawn at random, and the boys who were selected must participate. Drawing ninth place, and just about to draw tenth place, Leett's hand had just reached into the box.
Wang Yicheng suddenly sneered and said loudly: "I'll sign up." In fact, he already knew about Leeter's scheme. He had a strong sense of thought, and he had long heard that Li Teh was going to deal with him, and now he knew that Li Te's palm had a note with his name on it. Wang Yicheng didn't want to poke it, so he participated in the competition. He needed the beast baby.
Ten boys walked into the field from ten directions, and a wave of energy rippled from the center of the field. The third-level formation has been activated. At this moment, Wang Yicheng, who was in the deep formation, only felt that the scenery in front of him had changed, and the competition venue just now and the onlookers outside the venue were gone. I was in the middle of a pile of rocks, and when I looked up, I saw a red stone mountain not far ahead, and there was a treasure light shining on the top of the mountain, which was obviously the end. The rewards are also there.
Wang Yicheng remained motionless, and first felt the flow of energy in the formation for a while. The third-level formation is much more complex than the second-level formation, the energy is chaotic, and it is constantly changing, and the requirements for calculation ability are extremely high. It is difficult for the general computing power of a second-level formation mage to catch up with the changes in the energy in the formation.
Wang Yicheng's fingers trembled. I started to calculate quickly, but the energy in this formation changed too fast to be calculated clearly. Suddenly, that hazy feeling reappeared, that I was studying the key point of the first formula. Just now, when I heard the two formation mages arguing, I had a vague feeling, but I was interrupted by Li Te, and now that feeling appeared again.
At this time, the remaining nine classmates had already begun to move, and only Wang Yicheng was still standing motionless.
"Hey, why didn't Wang Yicheng move. He doesn't just want to stand still and get past this competition!" one of his classmates exclaimed with a laugh.
"Haha, hehe!" he said to a burst of laughter, which everyone clearly thought.
Suddenly, the formation in the square fluctuated again, and suddenly ten underground creatures appeared, appearing right in front of the ten contestants.
"Ironback Gold Eater! What a strong underground creature!" came an exclamation from the onlookers.
The Ironback Gold Eater is an enhanced version of the Gold Eater, because of the large amount of ore devoured, the stone shell on the Gold Eater's body evolved into an iron shell, which is extremely difficult to deal with, and ordinary foundation building monks are no opponent at all. Only the best-equipped Tsukiji Monks can kill them.
Ouyang Xiuxue saw it very clearly outside the venue, she frowned, and said, "Don't make a fuss, if someone dies, your Li family can't afford it." ”
Wang Yicheng was obviously unable to deal with these monsters during the Qi Refining Period, so Ouyang Xiuxue said so.
Several disciples of the Li family laughed and said, "Teacher, don't worry, they only ask for mercy, shout failure, and they will be passed out of the formation." And as soon as we see a monk injured, we will immediately save him from the formation. ”
Although hearing this, Ouyang Xiuxue was still a little uneasy, staring at the venue tightly, if anyone was in danger, she would rescue her at any time.
At this moment, there was already a battle in the field, and only the sound of ping pong fighting came from time to time.
Wang Yicheng had already used a wind-based spell to float in the air, and the iron-backed gold devouring monster had extremely strong defense, and even the back trick was iron. Wang Yicheng used spells to attack various parts of its body, but to no avail. The only way to deal with him is to use a powerful magic weapon.
At this time, some people had already shouted to admit defeat and were teleported out of the formation. Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and not far away, Li Teh actually sacrificed a flying sword at the level of a spiritual weapon, and cut the monster in front of him in half.
"Haha! Wang Yi has achieved your strength in the Qi refining period, so don't admit defeat quickly. It's not a shame to admit defeat, hehe, if you are bitten off your arms and thighs by monsters, it will be miserable. Li Teh couldn't see Wang Yicheng, but he had a way to use the formation to transmit the voice to Wang Yicheng's ears.
At this time, a scream was heard from nowhere, apparently someone had been injured.
Wang Yicheng's body was flexible, dodging left and right in the air, and the two tentacles of the monster danced rapidly, but they always brushed Wang Yicheng's body.
"Hmph! But without a powerful weapon, sooner or later it will be killed by monsters. Litt sneered in the middle of the formation.
Suddenly, Wang Yicheng roared angrily, and sacrificed a shining flying sword, which cut off one of the monster's tentacles alive with a bang.
"What! He's already built the foundation!" the onlookers all exclaimed.
In fact, Wang Yicheng only recovered his strength in the foundation building period three days ago, otherwise how could he sign up for the third-level formation mage exam.
The first thing he did after upgrading to the foundation building period was to buy fine fire and materials, and refined a flying sword with the best magic weapon for himself, which happened to come in handy in this competition.
Li Teh looked at Wang Yicheng with a gloomy face, and the flying sword continued to fall from the air. The sturdy back shell of the Ironback Gold Eater cannot withstand the attack of the best magic weapon. The shattered iron shell splattered, and soon, the monster let out a wail and fell to the ground, motionless.
originally wanted to see Wang Yicheng look ugly, but unexpectedly made him stand out.
At this time, there were only five male students left who participated in the competition, except for Wang Yicheng, the other four walked towards the center of the formation, and only Wang Yicheng was still standing in place. Leeter is the fastest of the four, and this is the formation set up by his family, and he is very familiar with the changes in the formation.
Suddenly, Wang Yicheng moved, and saw him striding forward without the slightest hesitation. It's very fast. There are many traps in the formation that will trap those who are advancing. However, Wang Yicheng bypassed one after another, as if he had fully understood the formation.
Li Te was taken aback, Wang Yicheng came from behind, and he was about to catch up with him.
It turned out that when Wang Yicheng was fighting with the monster just now, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and the problem that had been bothering him for a long time was suddenly solved. The difficulties in the three-level formation and the first formula are combined with each other and are completely penetrated.
At this time, in the formation, Wang Yicheng saw a path up the mountain. There are many traps laid out on the path. If in the past, every time Wang Yicheng broke a trap, he had to spend a lot of effort. But now that he has mastered the third-level formation, none of this is a problem, and he can easily break these traps while walking. (To be continued.) )
