The night passed by quickly.
Early the next morning, when Ji Tianxing finished his cultivation, his cultivation had increased a little, and his strength had improved.
When he returned to his room, Huan 'er quickly brought him a basin of water and a box of food. She helped him wash up and eat breakfast.
While he was eating breakfast, Huan 'er reported a piece of news.
"Eldest Young Master, I heard someone in the mansion mention something this morning."
"Someone from the Sky Pillar Sect set up a large formation in the city square and announced that there is a vacancy in the quota for the entrance competition."
"As long as the young talents of the Imperial City can pass through the formation, they will be qualified to participate in the entrance competition in two days."
"Eldest Young Master, this is an excellent opportunity for you! Do you want to give it a try? "
Ji Tianxing was startled. He thought to himself, "A vacancy? Is it because Ling Yunfei died? "
He nodded and smiled, "How can I miss such a good opportunity?"
After breakfast, he left the Ji Mansion and took a carriage to the city square.
By the time he arrived at the city square, it was already late in the morning.
The large square was already packed with people. There were thousands of Imperial City citizens and young martial artists. The square was so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
Ji Tianxing got off the carriage and walked through the crowd with an expressionless face to the center of the square.
There was a high platform with a radius of a hundred meters. It was surrounded by a white jade fence with many spirit beast statues.
Usually, when there was a grand ceremony in the Imperial City, it would be held on the high platform.
At this moment, there was only a huge dark golden ball of light on the high platform.
The ball of light was as big as a courtyard. It was condensed from the energy of the formation. Its surface was shining with a dazzling golden light.
Obviously, this was the formation set up by the Sky Pillar Sect.
The high platform was surrounded by people. Everyone stared at the golden ball of light and whispered to each other.
"The Sky Pillar Sect's disciples are really extraordinary!"
"This is the Illusory Weapon Formation? It is said to be a Low-Grade Profound Level Formation? "
"A Profound Grade Array can only be set up by a Profound Grade expert. Normal True Energy Realm martial artists would have a hard time breaking through it!"
"Those in the Body Refinement Realm definitely have no hope. To be able to break through the array and obtain a spot, one must at least have the strength of the True Element Boundary!"
"Sigh, it's a pity that we can't see what's going on inside the formation from the outside. I wonder what's so special about this Illusory Weapon Xuan Formation?"
Ji Tianxing passed through the crowd and arrived at the bottom of the high platform. He silently sized up the Illusory Weapon Xuan Formation and listened to the discussions of the surrounding warriors.
At this moment, the dark golden ball of light on the high platform suddenly flashed with two golden lights.
"Shua!"
A figure flew out of the ball of light and was bounced ten meters away by the majestic force of the array. He rolled and fell off the high platform.
This person was a young martial artist. He was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary bearing.
However, he was injured in the Illusory Weapon Mystic Formation. His clothes were tattered, revealing more than a dozen bloody wounds. His disheveled appearance was very embarrassing.
Seeing this person fall off the stage in a sorry state, the surrounding cultivators suddenly let out a burst of exclamations, discussions, and laughter.
"Isn't that Chu Shengzi? He has the strength of the Second Level of the True Element Boundary. How did he fail? "
"Brother, you didn't see it just now, right? Chu Shengzi had just entered the Illusory Weapon Mystic Formation for less than half an hour and failed to break through the array and was ejected out. "
"Hehe, what's so strange about Chu Shengzi failing to break through the array? You guys came late and didn't see it. Before Chu Shengzi, there were more than a dozen people who were ejected out with bruises all over their bodies. "
"Sigh, it seems like it's very difficult to obtain that vacant spot! Even the strength of the Second Level of the True Element Boundary can't do it. "
"I reckon that the person who can break through the array not only has the strength of the Third Level of the True Element Boundary, but also has to be proficient in arrays!"
Hearing until here, Ji Tianxing couldn't help but frown.
He secretly looked around and indeed saw a few young martial artists who were injured. They were covered in blood and were in a sorry state.
After the dark golden ball ejected Chu Shengzi, a black door appeared. It was obviously the entrance to the array.
However, most of the onlookers were just watching the show and didn't dare to try to break through the array.
At this moment, a burly young man in black clothes leaped onto the high platform and walked towards the black door.
The crowd around the high platform immediately burst into discussions.
"Look, there's another person who overestimates himself trying to break through the array."
"I know that person. He's Liu Family's Liu Suidao. He reached the Third Level of the True Element Boundary not long ago."
"I heard that he was cultivating in seclusion previously and missed the Sky Pillar Sect's entrance test. He has always regretted it, so he vowed to obtain that vacant spot this time."
"Liu Suidao went in! I wonder if he can break through! "
Ji Tianxing listened to the discussions around him and stared at Liu Suidao with interest as he watched him enter the Illusory Weapon Mystic Formation.
After Liu Suidao entered the array, the black door disappeared.
The dark golden ball was very quiet and didn't emit any sound. The crowd couldn't see the situation inside the array.
About seven minutes later, the dark golden ball suddenly flickered with two rays of golden light.
"Swish!"
Liu Suidao was ejected and fell off the high platform with blood all over his body. He lay on the ground in a sorry state.
There was another burst of discussion in the crowd. Many people felt that it was a pity.
After Liu Suidao struggled to get up and limped away, no one dared to go on the stage for a long time.
After a full 15 minutes, a young martial artist in a white robe with an imposing appearance jumped onto the high platform.
Seeing the white-robed young man on the stage, the onlookers all revealed surprised expressions and started to discuss again.
"Everyone, look! It's Jiang Baiyu!"
"Jiang Baiyu actually wants to break through the array? He has the strength of the Fifth Level of the True Element Boundary and is ranked in the top 10 in the nation! "
"No! Jiang Baiyu has already passed the entrance test and obtained the spot to participate in the tournament. Why does he still want to break through the array? "
"Hmph! You don't understand, right? Jiang Baiyu is breaking through the array to gain fame! If he successfully breaks through the array, he will definitely impress the Sky Pillar Sect. When he enters the Sky Pillar Sect in the future, he will definitely receive preferential treatment and be heavily nurtured by the sect! "
"I see! This Jiang Baiyu is quite ambitious. "
Ji Tianxing's expression was calm as he watched Jiang Baiyu enter the array. A playful smile appeared on his face.
He had seen the Black and White Heroes at the Dragon Gate's banquet and had some impression of Jiang Baiyu.
He wanted to see if the conceited Jiang Baiyu could get what he wanted.
Soon, 15 minutes passed.
The dark golden light ball suddenly flickered with two rays of golden light, and a white figure was ejected out.
It was Jiang Baiyu!
His white robe was stained with blood, and his hair was disheveled as he fell off the stage. He rolled a few times before coming to a stop.
He had confidently stepped onto the stage to break through the array under everyone's gazes, but he didn't expect to end up in such a sorry state.
Jiang Baiyu was so ashamed that he wanted to die. He crawled up with a dirty face and hurriedly left the square through the crowd.
When the martial artists around the high platform saw that even Jiang Baiyu couldn't break through the array, they instantly burst into an uproar and burst into discussions.
"Oh my god! Isn't this Illusory Weapon Mystic Formation too powerful? Even Jiang Baiyu can't break through it? "
"If even the top 10 geniuses can't break through it, then who can get the empty spot?"
"Haha, whoever can break through the array is definitely a genius more powerful than Jiang Baiyu. This kind of genius would have already passed the entrance test. Why would he need to break through the array? "
