Chapter 58 – The Ten Thousand Killing Array
The youth had a long scar fro and he was 18 years old He had joined the Sky Fortune Kingdom’s army as a mercenary when he was 15, and had been sent to the frontier where he killed many people On the border, he had been stabbed, and at the border, every day for three years he had lived on the edge of death – until he had finally reached the Third Stage of Body Transforh During the entrance exath Trial had reached 2500 jins, and he had also reached the third floor of the Exquisite PaGoda
“These juniors who got the top three spots really think they can surpass us with their strength If it wasn’t for the Exquisite PaGoda deciding an opponent’s strength based on their skeletal age, I would have reached the fifth floor!” said a youth at wang Mang’s side His na’s ally His had also tested his fist strength at 2500 jins and had reached the third floor of the Exquisite PaGoda
Fist strength was not a doth mainly depended on one’s own talent and cultivation based on the skill manual they followed These mercenaries’ skill th could only be so strong Their formidable aspects lay in their rich co instinct to surprise an enemy and kill them
Therefore the dreadful nature of these two youths lay in actual combat, in particular life and death situations, and not tests
“wang Yanfeng, Lin Ming! These two kids are just little flowers that grew up in a greenhouse Our fighting ability was learnt at the end of a knife’s blade while fighting for our lives, how could they even be our match?”
In the Exquisite PaGoda, they were restricted by their skeletal age and were stopped at the third floor But the ranking war did not have this limit, and all participants were treated impartially! This was their turn to shi+ne!
The Ten Thousand Killing Array that the Seven Profound Martial House used for the ranking as in a mountain valley not too far from the Exquisite PaGoda The mountain valley was covered in sharp baave off a chilly, withering aura
In the center of these layers upon layers of ba, in which there was an ashlar square a thousand steps wide At the center of the square was a ten by ten foot wide altar The altar was engraved with a variety of luminescent runes and sy Array which was used in the ranking war
By the tiroup had arrived at the ashlar square, there were already athered there
Because the Ten Thousand Killing Array consumed a colossal number of true essence stones every time it was activated, it would only be opened once a month at an appointed time At that time, all the martial artists of the Seven Profound Martial House could voluntarily participate in the ranking war, but they also needed to pay a fee of one true essence stone as collateral If they their ranking was lower than 100 and they rose 5 spots, or if their ranking was higher than 100 and they rose three spots, they would be given back their true essence stone Otherwise, the Seven Profound Martial House would keep it
This sort of stipulation was so that disciples who hadn’t ress would not hold the viewpoint that they should coardless of whether they advanced or not It would just cause too h time in a day to do that
Hong Xi said, “New disciples who are participating for the first ti war do not need to pay a fee of a true essence stone You only need to use the jade slip that you were issued to participate in the Ten Thousand Killing Array assess Array, your true body will not be injured Once you die in the illusion, the assess will be based upon the score you achieve fro your enemies”
Hong Xi said this and then dis entered the ashlar square, as he wanted to take a look at this Ten Thousand Killing Array altar At the same time, he discovered two people he knew; these two people were Liu Mingxiang and Zhang Cang, who had coo
Meanwhile, Zhang Cang also discovered Lin Ming He looked at him with a hint of disdain in his smile
“Lin Ming? I had forgotten, but it see Array assessment also allo disciples to participate Heh heh, I a your performance I hope you can enter in the top 180, otherwise it’s just too boring”
“You don’t need to worry aboutpointed this out, as he knew that the last ti the strings behind the scenes
However Zhang Cang did notcame to know about this matter
Zhang Cang sneered and said, “Zhu Yan is a disciple of the Heavenly Abode and his ranking is 39 With that ranking, every rank above it is difficult How could he come every month? Do you even understand about these boundaries?”
Lin Ming replied, “I’m not interested in you or your crap After the month ends, ill come to a resolution At the appointed time, I hope you can still smile afterwards”
“Haha, that was exactly what I was going to say to you”
News of the ga had been spread around, and many people knew about it Some people took pleasure in others’ misfortune and wanted to watch the new first place disciple suffer a hu loss, but there were also so was bullying a new disciple after all, and the despicable action of trying to take his new true essence stones was despised by them
At this tixiang’s arrogant nature and wang Yanfeng’s proud character, this naturally spelled disaster
