Late at night.
The sky was as black as ink.
The entire Jin Nation Academy seemed extremely quiet.
Most of them went back to rest.
Huangfu Tianlong gazed at the sky alone and felt an indescribable melancholy.
In the Jin Nation Academy.
Ye Ping closed his eyes and sat quietly on the eaves.
He was comprehending the peerless sword intent.
The entire Jin Nation Academy was extremely quiet.
Other than the chirping of insects, there was no other sound.
Ye Ping closed his eyes tightly.
He wanted to comprehend the peerless sword intent.
Unfortunately, no matter how Ye Ping tried to comprehend it, he could not comprehend the so-called supreme sword intent.
Until the sun rose.
Ye Ping did not comprehend the supreme sword intent.
In fact, Ye Ping couldn't even sense an ordinary sword intent, let alone a supreme sword intent.
That made Ye Ping a little upset.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Su Changyu had personally told him about the supreme sword intent, Ye Ping would have thought that the other party was making things up out of nothing.
Otherwise, why was he still unable to comprehend the supreme Sword Intent after such a long time?
At this moment.
The sky had just turned bright.
Huangfu Tianlong's figure appeared below.
"Senior Brother Ye, the academy has summoned me, I'll take my leave first. I'll look for you again after the Ten Nations Grand Tournament is over."
Huangfu Tianlong spoke. He had something to do and had to leave.
The Ten Nations Grand Tournament was tomorrow and he had to prepare for it. Hence, he could not stay in the Jin Nation Academy all the time. Hence, he specially came over to bid farewell.
"Go, see you in a few days."
Ye Ping then watched Huangfu Tianlong leave.
After Huangfu Tianlong left, Ye Ping continued to comprehend the supreme sword intent.
No miracle happened, and Ye Ping did not comprehend the supreme sword intent until noon.
It was also at this moment that Li Yu returned.
This time, the disciples guarding the door did not stop Li Yu. Instead, they generously allowed Li Yu to walk over.
"Master, Master, something big, something big."
When he arrived at his residence, Li Yu hurriedly appeared in front of Ye Ping, looking extremely excited.
"What happened?"
Ye Ping was a little curious as to why Li Yu rushed over.
"Master, the examination content of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament has been released."
Li Yu said.
He came over today precisely to tell Ye Ping about that.
"Content of the test? What is it? "
He asked.
"Master, the contents of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament this time are the illusory realm assessment, the physical body pagoda assessment, and the literary test."
Li Yu revealed the content of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.
"Master, you might really become famous this time around. Aside from the Illusory Realm Trial, you are also proficient in the Physical Body Pagoda Trial and the Literary Test."
"In particular, the literary test. Master, do you know how many geniuses of the Ten Nations were dumbfounded when the literary test came out? They were all wailing and howling."
Li Yu said excitedly. As he spoke, he moved.
"Literary test? Is there such an assessment in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament? "
This time, Ye Ping was a little surprised.
Ye Ping initially thought that the so-called Ten Nations Grand Tournament should be a group of people fighting and killing each other to snatch the first place.
Who would have thought that there would be a literary examination?
"Master, the assessment of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament is different every time, but generally speaking, the literary test is extremely rare. I heard that the Ten Nations Academy has invited three great Confucian scholars to take charge, so the literary test should be the highlight."
"The geniuses of the Ten Nations may be smart, but the literary test is not something that can be solved with petty tricks. You have no idea how many geniuses wailed and wailed when the announcement was made."
Li Yu laughed loudly.
Seeing how miserable the others were, Li Yu was elated.
"Wailing?"
"It can't be to that extent."
This time, Ye Ping was indeed a little surprised.
Although the literary test rarely appeared in the Grand Cultivators Meet, it shouldn't be to the extent of wailing and wailing, right?
Those who could become geniuses were not fools. Even if they spent most of their time cultivating and occasionally took some time to study, they wouldn't be unable to pass.
However, Li Yu shook his head and looked at Ye Ping to explain.
"Master, you really underestimate the Ten Nations Academy."
"I know what you mean. Those who can participate in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament are not fools. There won't be a big problem with the normal literary test, but this is the Ten Nations Grand Tournament."
"It's the finale and the Ten Nations Academy has already invited three great Confucian scholars to take charge. It can be seen how strict the literary test is this time."
"Think about it, how difficult would it be to write an essay that would at least catch the attention of the great Confucian scholars?"
"However, others might be worried, but you're different, Master. I feel that if you participate this time, you'll have no choice but to come in first place."
After learning about the content of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament, Li Yu was the happiest.
After Li Yu's explanation, Ye Ping finally understood.
The cultivators who participated in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament were indeed geniuses, and it would not be a problem for them to write some essays. However, the essays that they wrote could only be used for self-entertainment. If they wanted to get the recognition of the great Confucian scholars …
Basically, they could forget about it.
"I really didn't expect that there would be a literary test in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament this time. Tsk tsk, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Throughout the history of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament, there have only been two such events. This is only the third time."
"I think this year's Ten Nations Grand Tournament will definitely be more exciting than before. Tsk tsk."
Li Yu's eyes were full of anticipation.
However, at the end, Li Yu looked at Ye Ping and continued, "Master, I've already asked someone to prepare the Teleportation Array. Tomorrow is the Ten Nations Grand Tournament, do you want to sign up first? If you do, I'll get someone to arrange it immediately. "
Li Yu didn't know if Ye Ping wanted to participate in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament, so he asked curiously.
"Help me sign up."
Ye Ping nodded. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to let Li Yu sign up. After all, it would be a waste not to take a million Spirit Stones.
Besides, the content of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament this time did not include fighting and killing. The illusory realm assessment, physical body pagoda assessment, and the so-called literary test were not bad.
If it was a battle on the stage, Ye Ping would not be interested.
"Okay, Master, I'll go and settle it now. The Ten Nations Grand Tournament will begin at noon tomorrow, how about we set off at dawn? Master. "
Li Yu asked after calculating the time.
"Okay, you can arrange everything."
Ye Ping nodded and agreed.
He would let Li Yu make the arrangements.
"Okay, Master, I'll go and get busy, I'll come to see you at dawn tomorrow."
Li Yu did not say anything more. He had gone there today to get Ye Ping's answer.
Now that he had received Ye Ping's answer, Li Yu left.
After Li Yu left.
Ye Ping did not idle either. Since the third round of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament was a literary test, Ye Ping felt that it was necessary for him to read some books.
There was no harm in reading more.
At the same time …
In the Qingyun Dao Sect.
Su Changyu sat quietly in the middle of the rear cliff.
Since he woke up last night, he had not slept at all.
At his realm, it was actually not a big problem for him to sleep less.
Su Changyu was very curious about why he had been having frequent dreams during this period of time.
Until now, he still remembered that face.
It was a beautiful woman who was smiling at him at first, but later on, she gradually grinned menacingly, making Su Changyu's hair stand on end.
He did not know what happened, nor did he know why he had that dream.
Su Changyu did not want to think about it, but he couldn't help but do so.
However, at this moment, a figure appeared in front of Su Changyu.
It was Wang Zhuoyu.
At this moment, Wang Zhuoyu appeared not far away. He had his head lowered and seemed to be studying something.
Seeing this scene, Su Changyu couldn't help but be curious. He leaped down from the cliff and soon arrived in front of Wang Zhuoyu.
"Third Junior Brother, what are you doing here?"
Su Changyu's voice sounded.
Wang Zhuoyu was immediately startled and looked extremely flustered.
"Are you a thief? Why are you so flustered? "
Su Changyu was even more curious.
He didn't understand what Wang Zhuoyu was doing.
"Eldest Senior Brother, don't slander me for no reason. I'm not a thief."
Wang Zhuoyu hurriedly said.
However, the panic in his eyes could not be hidden at all.
At this moment, Su Changyu knew that Wang Zhuoyu was definitely hiding something.
Thinking of this, Su Changyu immediately took a step forward and stared at Wang Zhuoyu. "Third Junior Brother, you'd better tell me the truth. Otherwise, don't blame me for looking for Master."
Su Changyu's gaze was extremely calm.
After he said that, Wang Zhuoyu became even more flustered.
"Eldest Senior Brother, it's really nothing. You're thinking too much. I just came here to take a look. Why are you suspecting me?"
Wang Zhuoyu explained in a mysterious manner.
"What's behind you? What are you trying to hide? "
The more Wang Zhuoyu acted like that, the more curious Su Changyu was. He could tell that Wang Zhuoyu was hiding something, so he immediately pushed Wang Zhuoyu away in a bid to see what he was hiding.
However, Wang Zhuoyu refused to let Su Changyu see it. In fact, he even turned around and wanted to destroy the corpse. However, Su Changyu was different. The supreme Sword Immortal of the Qingyun Dao Sect.
Hence, Su Changyu quickly pushed Wang Zhuoyu away and soon saw what Wang Zhuoyu was hiding.
Stone.
That's right, they were stones.
There were twenty to thirty stones behind Wang Zhuoyu, and they were placed in a strange position. However, Su Changyu found them rather familiar.
Soon, Su Changyu remembered what it was.
A few days ago, when Ye Ping returned to the sect, he would fiddle with the stones whenever he had nothing to do. Ye Ping said that he was setting up an array formation and didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
Now that he saw this scene, Su Changyu was stunned for a moment before coming to a sudden realization.
"Oh, Third Junior Brother, are you studying Ye Ping's array formation?"
Su Changyu finally understood what Wang Zhuoyu was doing.
He was studying Ye Ping's array formation.
"Eldest Senior Brother, don't spout nonsense. How could I be studying Ye Ping's array formation? You're talking nonsense. "
Wang Zhuoyu's face turned red as he hurriedly tried to explain.
"You're still not admitting it? A few days ago, Ye Ping liked to set up array formations with stones when he had nothing to do. "
"No way, no way. Third Junior Brother, you're not starting to learn from Ye Ping, are you?"
"Are you worthy?"
Su Changyu couldn't help but speak up. It was not that he looked down on Wang Zhuoyu, but mainly because Ye Ping was a true peerless genius. Wang Zhuoyu, who couldn't even pass the array formation assessment, was actually studying Ye Ping?
'Does he really think he's a peerless array formation master? '
"Eldest Senior Brother, your words are meaningless. Firstly, I'm not learning from Ye Ping, he's the one learning from me. Secondly, what's there to be worthy about? No matter what, I'm better than you, right? "
Since he had been seen through, Wang Zhuoyu simply admitted it. However, he felt that he wasn't learning from Ye Ping, but rather, Ye Ping was learning from him. He just took some time to study it.
'Besides, even if I can't, can you? '
'No way, Eldest Senior Brother, you don't really think you're a peerless Sword Immortal, do you? '
"Better than me? How are you better than me? I'm not trying to criticize you, but you've been studying array formations for more than ten years and you can't even pass the array formation master assessment. What else do you have to say? "
"No matter what, I've gotten into the top ten of the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet. What about you? Have you ever gotten into the top ten of the Baiyun Ancient City Array Formation Meet? "
Su Changyu was indeed sharp-tongued and his words rendered Wang Zhuoyu speechless.
In particular, Wang Zhuoyu felt even more upset when he mentioned the array formation master assessment.
He could have passed it initially, but after being dealt a blow by Ye Ping, he performed poorly and failed again.
That made Wang Zhuoyu extremely upset.
Now that Su Changyu mentioned that matter, Wang Zhuoyu felt like his heart was being stabbed.
"Eldest Senior Brother, I don't mean anything else. It's not like we don't know how you managed to get into the top ten of the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet."
"Besides, array formations are completely different from the Sword Dao. To be honest, if Master hadn't insisted that I study array formations, I might have soared to the sky by practicing sword techniques."
Wang Zhuoyu said with some indignation.
The few of them were all orphans who were adopted by Daoist Tai Hua.
Daoist Tai Hua had also helped them by thinking that Su Changyu was suitable for sword techniques while he was suitable for array formations. Hence, he continued to study them.
In fact, Wang Zhuoyu sometimes thought that he might not be suitable for array formations but the Sword Dao. However, he decided not to think about it. After all, both the Sword Dao and array formations were equally difficult.
However, Wang Zhuoyu was infuriated after being ridiculed by Su Changyu.
"Hah, foolish."
Su Changyu humphed coldly before speaking slowly.
"The path of the Sword Dao is like the Shu Dao, it's harder than ascending to the heavens. The path of the Formation Dao requires the help of Formation Artifacts, Formation Materials, and Formation Diagrams. Even if you can't set up a profound Formation Dao, at the very least, an ordinary Formation Dao can be set up by anyone.
Su Changyu could tolerate anything, but he couldn't tolerate others mocking his Sword Dao. Hence, he belittled the Dao of array formations.
As soon as he said that, Wang Zhuoyu couldn't hold it in anymore.
He respected Su Changyu as his Eldest Senior Brother, but it didn't mean that he had to be polite to him. After all, they were all from the same sect and knew each other very well. Besides, they were about the same age too. Hence, they were naturally as close as brothers.
Since they were as close as brothers, it was common for them to quarrel. However, after they grew up and became more sensible, they became more polite.
However, Wang Zhuoyu couldn't tolerate Su Changyu's mockery anymore.
"Eldest Senior Brother, I don\'t mean anything else. The path of the Sword Dao is indeed difficult, but the basic sword techniques shouldn\'t be too difficult. You haven\'t even condensed the complete sword momentum of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship."
"What right do you have to say that the Dao of array formations is simple?"
Wang Zhuoyu retorted.
"Hah!"
Su Changyu sneered and glanced at the stones on the ground. He then said slowly, "It seems that you're still not convinced. Do you believe that I can set up an array formation casually?"
Su Changyu was infuriated because Wang Zhuoyu actually humiliated him for not condensing the sword momentum.
'You make it sound like I'm not talented. '
"Eldest Senior Brother, it's not that I'm being sarcastic, but if you can casually set up an array formation, from now on, I'll go east if you want me to go west if you want me to. Moreover, I'll give you half of the money I earn in the future for free."
Wang Zhuoyu smiled.
'Set up an array formation casually? '
'Do you think you're Ye Ping? '
'No way, Eldest Senior Brother, you don't really think you're a peerless expert, do you? '
'You're lying to yourself, the highest realm of deception? '
At this moment, Wang Zhuoyu felt that Su Changyu had gone berserk and really thought of himself as a peerless expert.
"Okay, you said it, don't regret it."
Su Changyu said stubbornly.
In fact, he was in a dilemma now, but in order to protect his pride, Su Changyu could only bite the bullet and continue to clamor.
"I won't regret it, but Eldest Senior Brother, what if you can't set it up?"
Wang Zhuoyu took a deep breath and asked while looking at Su Changyu.
"Can't set it up? If you can't, from now on, I'll call you Eldest Senior Brother, how about that? "
Su Changyu was infuriated.
"Okay, it's a deal then. Eldest Senior Brother, please."
Wang Zhuoyu was also infuriated as he raised his hand and invited Su Changyu to perform.
As soon as he said that, Su Changyu suddenly calmed down.
'Invite what? '
'You really want me to set up an array formation? '
'Okay, Third Brother, I didn't expect you to have so much resentment towards me. '
Su Changyu gritted his teeth and then spoke.
"There's only the two of us here. If I really set up an array formation, what if you go back on your word?"
Su Changyu said, afraid that Wang Zhuoyu would go back on his word.
"I'll go and invite someone over now so that everyone can testify, okay?"
Wang Zhuoyu still seemed to be at loggerheads.
All of a sudden, Su Changyu was a little frustrated.
However, the pride in his heart made Su Changyu unable to swallow his pride. Su Changyu immediately said calmly.
"Go and invite them."
Wang Zhuoyu didn't say anything else and simply turned around to invite them.
However, after taking a few steps, Wang Zhuoyu said, "Eldest Senior Brother, do you want me to prepare array artifacts and materials for you? Otherwise, you'll spout nonsense again if you can't set up the array formation later! "
Wang Zhuoyu said in displeasure.
"No, only good-for-nothings will use array artifacts."
Su Changyu said. Since he couldn't set it up anyway, he decided to pretend to be impressive for the last time.
"Okay, Eldest Senior Brother, I'll go get them now. Don't go missing later. Whoever does that is a dog."
After being mocked again, Wang Zhuoyu decided to go straight to the point.
In fact, he didn't want to make things so awkward. Although he said that he was going to invite them, he actually just wanted to go back and rest.
However, he didn't expect Su Changyu to still pretend to be impressive at this point.
This time, Wang Zhuoyu couldn't stand it anymore.
He really went to invite them now and deliberately made it sound so harsh.
In case Su Changyu ran away.
As soon as he said that, Su Changyu froze because he could tell that Wang Zhuoyu was really angry.
After all, the two of them had quarreled before, but they usually left it unsettled.
However, at this point, Su Changyu also understood that Wang Zhuoyu was being serious.
At the thought of this, Su Changyu couldn't help but feel that his words were indeed harsh.
At that moment, Su Changyu planned to speak up to ease the tension on both sides.
However, as soon as he said that, he acted up again.
"Childish."
Su Changyu said calmly.
All of a sudden, it became the straw that broke the camel's back.
Wang Zhuoyu's eyes turned red.
He was being serious this time.
