"Let me ask you, what are the nine palaces?" Wang Guicai asked a question that was more difficult than the previous one. If Du Yuer and Junior Sister Lin were to answer, they would definitely fail.
"The ancient array masters divided the Heavenly Palace into the Qian Palace, Kan Palace, Gen Palace, Zhen Palace, Zhong Palace, Xun Palace, Li Palace, Kun Palace, and Dui Palace."
Du Feng answered fluently. This kind of basic knowledge did not require thinking at all.
"Qimen Dunjia, what are the three Qimen?"
Wang Guicai was also surprised. He thought that the first question could defeat Du Feng. He did not expect him to answer it so easily, so he asked a more difficult question.
"Qimen" was the three Qimen of B, C, and D; "Gate" was the eight Qimen of Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Jing, Jing, and Kai. "Dunjia" meant to hide, and "Jia" referred to the six Jia, namely Jia Zi, Jia Xu, Jia Shen, Jia Wu, Jia Chen, and Jia Yin.
Du Feng not only answered easily, but also answered the latter questions. It was evident that his basic knowledge was solid. What was even more infuriating was that after he answered the question, he casually stroked his chin. His smooth skin and handsome face formed a sharp contrast with Senior Brother Wang's pockmarked face.
In fact, this was not basic rune knowledge, but theoretical knowledge that a two-star array master needed to learn. Wang Guicai himself had just learned it not long ago. But this was not difficult for Du Feng at all. He had learned it from his old servant when he was about three years old.
At this moment, Du Yuer's heart was beating like a deer. She thought that Seventh Brother might know a little about arrays, but he would not be too powerful. If it did not work, she would ask Senior Brother Wang to let him pass the basic knowledge assessment first. But she did not expect him to answer several questions in a row so easily.
"Is he really here to take the qualification exam? He is too powerful!"
"Yeah, I have never heard of the latter questions."
Several new students were talking about it, and they all felt that Du Feng's performance was incredible. In particular, Li Ying's eyes were almost full of little stars. She had already worshipped Du Feng to the extreme. He was so handsome, a prince, and the key was that his knowledge of arrays was so solid. He answered the question without any hesitation. It was as easy as drinking water or yawning.
Li Ying, who came to join in the fun, was actually a receptionist in the hall. She was usually responsible for selling some array flags, array discs, talisman brushes, and other materials for the branch. She was also a 1-star Array Master and was preparing for the 2-star theoretical knowledge assessment. If she passed the assessment, she would have a 1.5 star badge like Wang Guicai, which was the so-called pseudo-2-star level.
The previous few questions were clearly the worries of a 2-star formation master. In fact, she suspected that even Wang Guicai himself might not be able to answer all of them.
"Alright, if you can break through my formation, then you'll pass."
Wang Guicai was completely stimulated. In order to protect the safety of the new students, the test of breaking the formation had to be completed by the instructors. However, he was burning with rage and simply couldn't care less. With a wave of his sleeve, he had already scurried away.
The Qian position, the Kan position, the Gen position … the Life Gate, the Death Gate … His entire body moved swiftly as he threw down the formation flags. Soon, a seemingly simple small formation was set up. Although it was set up in a hurry, he had practiced this formation many times in preparation for the Level 2 Array Master practical test.
"This is not fair. The formation breaking test should be completed by Vice President Liu. This formation is … "
Before Du Yu 'er could speak, Li Ying had already raised an objection. She had joined the branch earlier and was more familiar with the rules here.
Liu Chengde raised his hand to stop Li Ying from continuing. Du Yu 'er, who originally wanted to speak up, could only hold it back. The person with the highest status was Vice President Liu. Since he did not raise any objections, it would be useless for others to say anything.
When Wang Guicai saw that Vice President Liu had acquiesced, he became even more unscrupulous. He actually added a killing formation on the foundation of a Level 2 formation. The assessment for new students was nothing more than an illusion formation or a trap formation. If one could successfully escape, then it would be considered as passing the assessment. If he added a killing formation and did not control it well, then it was very likely that someone would die.
Du Feng did not speak throughout the entire process. He had long understood that the Vice President was intentionally testing him. He smiled and directly walked into the formation that Wang Guicai had set up. He actually did not test it from the outside first.
"In the end, he is still a newbie. Entering the formation without a flag is purely courting death."
"He actually did not look at the formation first and directly entered the formation. Will this work?"
Everyone had their own opinions. Du Yu 'er's palms were sweating and she was somewhat worried for her seventh brother. The formation breaking test was not an on-the-spot battle. There was no need to directly enter the other party's formation. They could first study it and only enter the formation when they felt that it was about time to break the formation.
As soon as Du Feng entered the formation, the surrounding scenery immediately changed. This place was no longer the hall on the first floor of the Formation Master Union. It had already become a large piece of primeval forest.
"Roar!"
A huge brown bear pounced out. When it stood up, it was actually more than three meters tall. Its blood-red eyes and exposed fangs made it look very frightening. If it was any other new student, they would definitely run away out of instinctive fear. After his emotions stabilized, then he officially began to break the formation.
The huge brown bear opened its bloody mouth and pounced over. It was about to bite Du Feng's head. It was just an illusion. How could it stop the battle-hardened Du Feng? He unhurriedly stretched out his right index finger and just happened to hit the big brown bear's head. Like a hammer hitting a glass door, the big brown bear was instantly smashed into pieces.
"Bang!"
White smoke rose from the ground, which meant that the first layer of the formation had been broken. If this was a standard qualification test, at this moment, Du Feng would be considered to have passed. From the moment he entered the formation to the moment he broke it, only a breath's time had passed.
"How is this possible? Senior Brother Wang must have gone easy on him."
The new students would never believe that someone actually passed the test within a breath's time. Perhaps even the formation didn't have time to activate.
Even Wang Guicai himself felt that it was a bit unbelievable. Could it be that there was a mistake in the process of setting up the illusion formation? Fortunately, there was a trump card, which was the hidden killing formation.
At this moment, the scene in the formation changed again. The primeval forest was nowhere to be seen. Only a shining big sword was left hanging in the air. The tip of the sword was precisely aimed at the top of Du Feng's head. If he made a wrong move, he would immediately be killed by this sword.
A Level 2 Killing Formation could easily kill a Body Tempering Stage Five martial artist. Wang Guicai was already at Body Tempering Stage Seven. Even if a martial artist of the same level as him entered, if he didn't understand the formation and relied on brute force, he would most likely die.
