One hour was not a long time, but it was not short either. Moreover, Yan Chutian was very clear that the old man's words had already given him enough time.
Thus, after bowing and thanking him again, Yan Chutian gradually calmed down and started to set up the formation.
With his profound knowledge of formations, Yan Chutian was confident that he could set up a formation that barely reached the level of a Great Array Master, even if he could not be considered a Great Array Master.
However, two hours of time was barely enough for him to do so.
While Yan Chutian was setting up the formation, in the outer sect of the Firmament God Palace, in a grand hall.
At this moment, the hall was already filled with people.
These gathered figures were none other than Yan Chutian and Xue 'er. They were all new disciples.
Although there was no requirement to be present for the morning class, perhaps because it was the first morning class, almost all the new disciples were present. Even those who had reached the Yuanying State were present.
Of course, there was an exception, and this exception was Yan Chutian.
The new disciples were divided into two sides and sat cross-legged on stone blocks that seemed to have existed since ancient times.
At this moment, among the many girls, there was a beautiful figure whose face was constantly becoming worried.
Because she had been watching closely, she did not see the figure she was looking forward to. However, the morning class was about to begin!
"Dong …!"
Just as the young lady was so anxious that she did not know what to do, the ancient sound of a bell finally resounded within the large hall. All of the strange sounds were completely silenced, causing the young lady, who had raised her head to look, to shrink back her delicate body.
In the next moment, the figure of a middle-aged man slowly walked out from the high platform in the hall.
The man's aura was calm and his appearance was gentle. Even though he was not young now, it was not difficult to see that he must have been extremely handsome in the past from his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes.
"Haha … since you are all new disciples, let me introduce myself first."
"My name is Wang Yang. I'm one of the outer sect elders. Coincidentally, I'm also one of the instructors for you new disciples."
"If there's anything you don't understand about cultivation, you can ask me."
"Greetings, Elder Wang Yang!"
As the middle-aged man's voice rang out, numerous respectful voices rang out from the mouths of the new disciples, resounding throughout the large hall.
After Wang Yang, a few more figures walked out. They were the instructors of the new disciples.
However, it was only during the first morning class like this that they would appear at the same time. Normally, only one teacher would appear at most. More often than not, the disciples would have to ask the questions themselves.
After all the instructors appeared on the stage in succession, their voices once again landed on Wang Yang. Evidently, there was a hierarchy even within this group of elders and instructors.
"Haha … it's not only the first time you've seen us, it's also the first time we, the instructors, are truly seeing you."
"Thus, I will call out your names here so that we, the instructors, will have a rough idea of your identities."
As his voice rang out, Wang Yang did not wait for anyone to reply. He immediately took out a roster and began to call out the names one by one according to the names recorded on it.
At this moment, ordinary disciples might feel that it was very normal. However, it caused Cher's delicate body to suddenly tighten. Because she knew that Yan Chutian did not come!
Although Big Brother Yan was extraordinary in his previous life, that was still in the past. If the current him did not appear at this moment, wouldn't he leave a bad impression in the hearts of the elders and instructors?
And this would very likely affect his treatment in the outer sect!
However, no matter how worried Cher was, Wang Yang did not care about how she reacted. He had already called out the names one by one, starting from the new Heaven stage disciples.
At this moment, Cher could only silently pray in her heart. She hoped that Yan Chutian would appear as soon as possible.
However, it was destined that Yan Chutian would not appear. In the depths of the Mission Pavilion, in the enclosed space, he was concentrating on setting up the array formation.
Because he wanted the array formation to be powerful enough to threaten Yuanying realm cultivators, Yan Chutian naturally could not act rashly. Instead, he displayed almost all of his array formation skills.
However, the old deacon who was staring at him was clearly not an expert in array formation. Thus, he could not see through the mysteries of the array formation.
He could only use the simplest method of probing and estimating the array formation's embryonic form and the power it would have once it was fully formed.
However, he could not help but shake his head slowly. This array formation had indeed reached the level of a junior array master. However, a junior array master was still a junior array master. Even if it had reached the peak and was only a step away from becoming a great array master, it was still not a great array master.
As long as it was not a great array master, it was not qualified.
Yan Chutian did not care about the old deacon's reaction. He only minded his own business and continued to set up the array formation.
After about an hour, the array formation slowly took shape. It faintly emitted an oppressive aura that even a half-step Yuanying Practitioner could not ignore.
At this moment, the old deacon finally could not help but say, "If this is the array formation you set up, then I have to say that you have failed."
The old deacon's words were not directed at Yan Chutian. Instead, it was the truth.
The power of this array formation should be able to threaten a half-step Yuanying Practitioner. However, it was not enough to deal with a true Yuanying Practitioner.
Thus, Yan Chutian could not be considered a great array master.
However, Yan Chutian seemed to have known that the old deacon would say this. He immediately replied, "Deacon, please wait for a moment. Let me finish setting up this array formation."
"The array formation is not complete yet?"
This was the first thought that flashed through the old deacon's mind. However, his expression quickly turned cold. This was because he could clearly sense that the array formation was already complete. Thinking about it, this new disciple in front of him was just pretending to be dead.
However, when he thought about his previous words, the old deacon did not immediately turn hostile. Instead, he controlled his temper and said coldly, "Alright then. You have less than an hour to complete your array formation."
After he finished speaking, the old deacon continued to observe Yan Chutian's actions. He wanted to see how Yan Chutian would continue to set up an array formation that was clearly already complete.
However, the old deacon could not help but laugh out loud. This was because under his watchful gaze, Yan Chutian did not continue to set up the array formation. Instead, he seemed to be setting up another array formation nearby.
However, the old deacon knew that no matter how many arrays there were, they would never be able to reach a level that could truly threaten a Yuanying Practitioner.
This was similar to the relationship between spiritual energy and vital energy. No matter how much spiritual energy one had, it would not be able to contend against vital energy.
However, the old deacon did not want to remind Yan Chutian of this. He only wanted to wait for two hours to pass before announcing his failure.
The two hours were about to end. The other array formation that Yan Chutian was setting up was gradually being completed.
At a certain point, the array formation was completely completed. This array formation was not any weaker than the previous one.
However, this situation caused the old deacon's eyes to become extremely cold.
It was only when Yan Chutian reported back to him that he spoke coldly. "This is the array formation that you set up that can threaten a Yuanying Practitioner?"
"Yes."
Yan Chutian replied straightforwardly. However, his words were still met with the old deacon's indifference.
"If that is the case, then you have failed."
"No matter how many arrays you set up, they will never be able to threaten a true Yuanying Practitioner!"
"Haha … you are right, deacon. However, these two arrays that I have set up are different from the others."
As if he had already expected the old deacon's words, Yan Chutian smiled faintly. Then, without giving the old deacon any time to speak, he slowly formed a seal and merged it with the two arrays behind him.
As the seal merged with the two arrays, strands of connections that seemed to have existed for a long time quickly appeared between the two arrays.
As these connections continued to emerge, the old deacon's expression changed from one of indifference to one of shock.
This was because he could clearly feel that these two arrays, which were supposed to have distinct levels, were beginning to merge. Accompanying this, the vast aura that permeated the air also continued to rise.
This made the old deacon involuntarily think of a possibility. Could it be that these two arrays were able to reach a level that could threaten a Yuanying Practitioner?!
