"This round of assessment isn't just about speed. Using brute force will result in points being deducted."
Guo Zhiming saw that everyone was paying attention to Du Feng, so he quickly changed the topic. He was right. Apart from speed, the method of breaking the array was the most important. After all, this was an Array Master assessment, not a martial artist assessment. In terms of fighting, An Mie was definitely not Du Feng's match, but in terms of ability to set up arrays, that might not be the case.
As long as An Yashi could use the correct method to break the array within two hours, Teacher Qi would have to consider it carefully. After all, the Array Master Alliance respected the Array Dao. Their scores might not be higher.
At the start, Guo Zhiming was quite confident that if Du Feng used brute force to break the array, Kendo would be judged to have lost. But as time passed, sweat began to form on his forehead. It had already been more than an hour, and there was still no movement in the secret room that An Yashi was in.
In other words, not only did she not break the array, she didn't even know how to break it. If she had already started to break the array, there would at least be some movement.
"What's going on? Miss An still hasn't found a way to break the array?"
The Array Master who thought that An Yashi could win felt that it was unbelievable. Because Du Feng's process of setting up the array was very sloppy. It felt like she just went in for a stroll. Such a sloppy defensive array, how could Miss An not find a way to break it?
"Maybe Junior Sister An is thinking carefully before breaking the array in one go."
The Array Master who was slightly older also spoke up for An Yashi. There were two ways to break arrays. One was to test step by step. If there were any mistakes in the middle, they would be corrected until the array was broken. The other was to observe and think before finding the correct method to break the array in one go.
"En, that makes sense."
Although Guo Zhiming said that, his heart was already in a mess. Even if she was thinking of a way to break the array, it would take too long. One had to know that if one was trapped in an array for too long, they would feel despair. If something happened to Sister Yashi, it would be troublesome.
After a while, there was finally some movement. Guo Zhiming heaved a sigh of relief.
"It seems like Sister Yashi has found a way to break the array. She will be able to come out soon."
After hearing the commotion, Guo Zhiming regained his confidence. The last round was considered a draw. Now that they knew that An Yashi had won, they were in the lead. In the next round of assessment, he would definitely make Du Feng lose completely.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
The commotion in the room grew louder and louder, and everyone began to feel that something was wrong. What was going on? Using an array to break an array was mainly using an array flag to break the other party's array formation. There shouldn't be such a huge commotion. It sounded as if they were using thunderbolts and fireballs, exploding noisily.
"Du Feng, you are truly vicious. You actually set up a killing formation."
Guo Zhiming gnashed his teeth in anger. The Array Formation Master Union had a clear rule that in the second round of the competition, only defensive arrays could be arranged. At most, they could mix in some trapping array elements to prevent the opponent from escaping. He definitely could not set up such an obvious killing formation.
With such a loud explosion, Du Feng must have hidden a killing array within the defensive array, causing An Yashi to fall into danger at the critical moment.
"Idiot, if I had set up a killing array, she would have died 200 times."
Du Feng was not bragging at all. If he had used the Azure Sword as the array eye to set up a sword array. Or if he had used the Dragon Bone Arrow as the foundation to set up more than one killing array, An Yashi would have died countless times.
"Teacher Qi, hurry up and save her."
Just now, it was Guo Zhiming who suggested that Teacher Qi should not intervene halfway and must wait until the winner was decided after two hours. Now that he heard the explosion inside, he suggested that Teacher Qi save An Yashi.
"Don't worry, there is no killing array inside."
Teacher Qi did not rush to help. She still had the same kind smile on her face as before. As a seventh-level array master, she could still judge that what Du Feng had set up was not a killing array. Moreover, the sound coming from inside had nothing to do with the killing array. It was obvious that An Yashi couldn't find a way to break the array and began to use force to break the array at the last moment.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
At this moment, An Yashi was like a madman. She kept throwing talismans to bombard the surrounding iron walls. Those iron walls were the effect of the defensive array that Du Feng had set up. This was a very standard defensive array. There were not even vines, swamps, or other things to bind the opponent. It really relied on the defensive ability to trap her.
But even with such a simple defensive array, An Yashi couldn't find any flaws in it after more than half an hour. To put it bluntly, she didn't even know where the array eye was. She had no clue at all. She tried to use some array flags but to no avail. In the end, she simply waved her sword and slashed wildly.
Those iron walls were too hard, and An Yashi's hands were numb from the impact. If there was really no other way, she could only take out the talismans that she carried with her. Whatever Explosive Talisman, Thunder Talisman, they were all used, bombarding the iron walls over and over again.
Finally, with great difficulty, she destroyed a piece of it and thought that she could finally get out of it. In the end, she saw that there was an even thicker iron wall outside. There was really no other way. She also took out her trump card, the Thunderbolt Flame Ball, and began to bombard the surrounding iron walls.
"Boom … Bang!"
The door of the secret room was suddenly blown away, and then it fell to the ground with a bang. Looking at An Yashi again, her clothes were torn, her hair was messy, and there was a lot of dust on her face. She looked as if she had just climbed out of a boiler. She was in a sorry state.
"Sister Yashi, are you okay? Tell me quickly, did Du Feng set up a killing array? "
Although Teacher Qi had already said that there was no killing array in the secret room, Guo Mingzhi still didn't believe it. If there was no killing array, how could Sister Yashi be in such a sorry state? If it was any later, she might not be able to come out.
"Du Feng wins this round. Let's proceed to the next round of assessment."
Teacher Qi didn't expose the fact that An Yashi had broken the array by force, because the rules of the Alliance stated that if she could break the array within two hours, she could enter the next round of assessment. The third round of assessment was conducted by a senior level six array master. More than one comprehensive level six array formation. This included a defensive array, a trapping array, a maze array, and of course, a killing array.
"It has already been decided that I will set up the array for this round. Teacher Qi, do you have any objections?"
