This day, the five peaks were in an uproar as countless trial disciples swarmed towards Array Peak.
Not only that, even more than half of Misty Peak's inner sect disciples rushed over upon hearing the news.
Logically speaking, the birth of a new record on the Ten Formations Stele shouldn't cause such a huge commotion. However, it was said that not only was the record broken, it was broken all the way!
There were only ten levels in the Ten Formations Pagoda and the challenger had cleared all of them!
Before long, many sect disciples gathered before the Ten Formations Pagoda. In the distant skies, more and more disciples were arriving on their flying swords.
Feng Haoyu, Leng Rou, Little Fatty and the others from Spirit Peak were among them.
Xue Yi and the others from Weapon Peak rushed over as well.
Zhong Wen looked at the first row of words on the Ten Formations Stele with a conflicted expression.
If he had known that this would happen, he wouldn't have challenged the pagoda repeatedly in hopes of surpassing this person. Their understanding of formations wasn't on the same level at all.
"He can be considered an intermediate Array Formation Master after clearing Level 10 of the Ten Formations Pagoda."
"He's an intermediate Array Formation Master at Qi Condensation realm. That's way too incredible."
"Not only is this record unprecedented, no one will be able to surpass it in the future. It's been close to eight days and he hasn't eaten or slept at all. I wonder how he managed to get through it."
The fact that the challenger did not leave his name piqued everyone's curiosity and led to countless guesses.
"Just who is that person?"
"That mysterious challenger did not leave his name. I'm guessing there's a deeper meaning behind it!"
No one could guess why Su Zimo did not leave his name. It was because he did not know the use of the Ten Formations Stele or how to leave his name on it.
"Could it be Senior Brother Liu? Other than Senior Brother Zhong, Senior Brother Liu is the most skilled in formations in Array Peak. "
"I've seen Senior Brother Liu the past few days. It can't be him."
"Could it be Senior Brother Zeng? He hasn't appeared for the past few days. It might be him."
"I heard that Senior Brother Zeng only left after taking on a sect mission."
Everyone discussed fervently with all sorts of guesses.
"I'm guessing that this senior brother must be a true genius hidden within our Array Peak. He's handsome and suave. Most importantly, he's indifferent to fame and fortune."
A female disciple of Array Peak mumbled to herself with a smitten look in her eyes, completely immersed in her own fantasy.
"I'm guessing that he's trying to reveal his identity at the Array Peak face-off at the end of the year to shock everyone," Another disciple guessed.
The many disciples gathered here all had looks of admiration in their eyes.
Passing Level 10 of the Ten Formations Pagoda meant that one could set up Grade 2 arrays.
On the other hand, the geniuses of Elixir Peak and Talisman Peak could only refine Tier 1 elixirs or Tier 1 talismans.
In Weapon Peak, no one could even craft an inferior-grade spirit weapon.
From that perspective, this mysterious challenger had already surpassed all the trial disciples of the five peaks!
In the crowd, Feng Haoyu suddenly chuckled and shook his head. "The Dao of formations is just a side path after all. In the cultivation world, one's true capabilities are still important in life and death situations."
With that, Feng Haoyu led the group of Spirit Peak disciples away.
"Hmph! What's there to be cocky about? He's just relying on his fighting prowess. What's so great about that? "
"That's right. If that mysterious senior brother had set up an array beforehand and let him in, he would have had no choice but to surrender obediently."
"Listen to that sour tone. Number one of Spirit Peak? He doesn't have any magnanimity at all."
Many Array Peak disciples were displeased as they looked at Feng Haoyu's back view and mocked him.
In the hearts of many Array Peak disciples, Feng Haoyu's disdain towards this mysterious challenger was equivalent to his disdain towards Array Peak and them.
Furthermore, even though the Dao of formations was a side path, it was extremely important.
While a sect might not be strong, if a powerful Array Formation Master were to set up an array outside the sect, they would be able to defend against powerful enemies.
Therefore, in the cultivation world, some sects with powerful Array Formation Masters would find it difficult to be taken down by external enemies.
"Way too strong! Way too strong!"
Little Fatty rubbed his meaty palms and mumbled, "It's such a pity if I don't befriend such a ferocious person! Just who is he?! "
Leng Rou's gaze lingered on the Ten Formations Stele for a long time before she nodded. "Amazing."
With that, Leng Rou left Array Peak as well.
When the disciples around Leng Rou heard that, they could not help but shriek.
Leng Rou was a loner of few words and even a genius like Feng Haoyu had not received such an evaluation from her.
Now that she said that word, it was clear how shocked Leng Rou was.
Little Fatty's eyes widened as he scanned the crowd for a long time, as though he was looking for someone.
After a while, he found nothing. Frowning, Little Fatty murmured, "Where has bro been all this time? He didn't even come to take a look when something so big happened in Array Peak?"
"No, I've got to check out Weapon Peak again."
Making up his mind, Little Fatty rose into the air on his sword and sped towards Weapon Peak.
…
Far away in midair, five Perfected Jin Dan stood in the air, looking at the rare commotion on Array Peak.
The five of them were the five peak masters.
"Who is the intruder? Even I'm curious," Elixir Peak's master, the brown haired youth, said in an old-fashioned manner.
The other four looked at Xuan Yi. Wen Xuan chuckled. "Speak. I don't believe that you don't know the identity of that lad as Array Peak's master."
Xuan Yi placed his hands behind his back and smiled without saying anything.
"Stop keeping us in suspense! Hurry and speak!" Talisman Peak's master, a cold woman, hollered with a sullen expression.
Xuan Yi's smile froze on his face.
"Haha!"
The disheveled old man clapped and laughed. "Qishan is going to get really angry. You're going to suffer if she throws a bunch of talismans at your face."
"No, she won't."
The brown haired youth shook his head in a serious manner. "Qishan can't bear to attack Xuan Yi."
Blushing, Qishan glared at the disheveled old man and the brown haired youth before snarling, "Damned old fogeys! Nothing good comes out of a dog's mouth!"
Xuan Yi had an awkward expression as he looked at Qishan carefully and coughed gently. "I really can't say that."
"Eh?"
Wen Xuan was puzzled. "That's strange. How special is that lad's identity that you can't say?"
Xuan Yi shook his head and remained silent.
The disheveled old man waved it off. "Forget it, don't make things difficult for him."
Pausing for a moment, the disheveled old man could not help but tease, "Xuan Yi, you're pretty good. You managed to groom such a genius of formations without anyone noticing. You've got some skills."
"Hmph, he must have spent a lot of time and effort on that lad," Qishan harrumphed softly.
Xuan Yi chuckled. "That's not the case. He's a self-taught genius."
"Self-taught genius?"
The four peak masters exchanged glances, feeling even more shocked.
It was truly unbelievable that someone could clear the Ten Formations Pagoda on their own without the guidance of a powerful Array Formation Master.
"Now that you mention it, we're even more curious," Wen Xuan chuckled bitterly.
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment. "Don't worry, that lad's identity won't be hidden. Everyone will know about it sooner or later."
