Everyone looked at the pattern on the map, and their hearts instantly collapsed.
"You call this lifelike?"
They glanced at Wang Teng, and their gazes were extremely strange and meaningful.
"Where did he get his confidence from?"
"If I had to describe it, this pattern might be more like a pig or an elephant …"
"You probably learned abstract painting," Tantai Xuan sneered rudely.
"Well, it is quite abstract." Ye Jixing originally looked indifferent, but now he couldn't help but come over to take a look. He rubbed his chin and nodded.
Wang Teng looked at them laughing at him with a straight face, and layers of black lines appeared on his forehead.
"That's enough!"
He grabbed the map, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash can. He said angrily, "Give me another map!"
Governor Jiang held back his laughter and motioned for his subordinates to bring him another map.
Wang Teng picked up the brush, took a deep breath, and began to paint …
A moment later, under his confident gaze, a black tortoise appeared on the paper.
Wang Teng looked at everyone with hopeful eyes, but all he got in response were faces that were trying to hold back their laughter.
"It's too hurtful!"
Wang Teng looked at the pattern he had drawn again and was desperate. "Laugh all you want. I won't talk about this array."
He was angry, but fortunately, he didn't care how abstract the pattern was. He threw the jar to the wind and leaned back in his chair, looking like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
"Ahem, this painting is actually not bad." Governor Jiang clenched his fist and coughed dryly. He said, "Why don't we talk about its meaning?"
"No, I'm not in the mood," Wang Teng said, curling his lips.
They were laughing at him and wanted him to come up with ideas. How could there be such a good thing? Did Wang Teng not care about his reputation?
"Hurry up. Everyone's time is precious. Who has time to talk nonsense with you here?" Tantai Xuan kicked him and glared at him.
Wang Teng was angry, but he didn't dare to say anything. He looked a little embarrassed. If Tantai Xuan was really angry, he was still a little scared.
"Actually, I'm just joking with everyone to liven up the atmosphere. My drawing skills are definitely more than that." Wang Teng talked nonsense in a serious manner.
Everyone looked at him from the corner of their eyes.
Why don't you take a guess if we believe you?
Wang Teng didn't care about everyone's gazes. Who cared if they believed him or not? It was fine as long as he believed it himself. His complexion suddenly turned solemn as he said, "I know a type of array formation called the Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Array!"
"Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Formation?!" Everyone was stunned. Their hearts were filled with doubt. They had never even heard of this formation before.
Are you sure it's not a random name to fool people?
"Major General Wang, this formation …"
Before Chu Yongnian could finish his words, Wang Teng interrupted him, "I know your doubts, but I don't want to explain anything. All you need to know is that I understand this Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Formation and can set it up. That's enough."
"It's true!" Situ Jun looked at the crowd and confirmed again.
"Is there a need for me to lie to you? My family and friends are also in the East Sea. Would I joke around with their lives? "Wang Teng said.
"What's so special about this formation?" The other Runemasters nodded in agreement with Wang Teng's statement.
"The Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Formation isn't an ordinary formation. Its defensive power is ranked among the top of the many formations in the Foreignlands. It claims to be able to lock the sky. Wouldn't it be more than enough to lock down a city?" Wang Teng said.
"Lock the sky! What a boastful claim. I wonder if it's really that powerful. "Chu Yongnian questioned.
It wasn't that he was targeting Wang Teng. He just felt that it was a bit exaggerated and didn't know if it was true.
"Major General Wang, are you also a Runemaster?" Someone suddenly reacted and asked.
"Wang Teng is a disciple of a Runemaster in the Foreignlands. His own attainments have already reached the master level." Tantai Xuan couldn't help but open his mouth when he saw that everyone didn't believe him.
"Master level!!" Everyone was stunned and looked at Wang Teng in shock.
"So young, yet he's already at the master level. Principal Tantai, are you sure you're not lying to us?" Chu Yongnian asked suspiciously.
"During the battle of Star Maple City, Wang Teng commanded a group of Foreignlands' genius Runes to complete an offensive Runemaster Formation. Later on, he even assisted the Runes to set up an even more profound Runes Formation. Do you think I'd lie to you about this?" Tantai Xuan said in a bad mood.
"This … is really unbelievable!" Everyone believed him. Tantai Xuan didn't have to lie to them about this. Moreover, there were many people who participated in the battle of Star Maple City. They could still find out if they wanted to. Tantai Xuan wasn't so stupid as to lie to them about something that could be investigated.
Situ Jun's expression was even more astonished. This kid was really too monstrous. Not only was his martial arts talent strong, but his attainments in Runes were also so strong. It was simply unimaginable.
"How confident are you about this formation, Major General Wang?" Chu Yongnian took a deep breath and asked.
"More than eighty percent," Wang Teng said confidently.
"Eighty percent!" Everyone was shocked again. This confidence was too high.
This was a large-scale Runes Formation. The structure of Runes was extremely complicated. Normally, it would be considered good to have forty to fifty percent confidence, let alone eighty percent.
"What do you think about this Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Formation?" Governor Jiang was also secretly shocked. However, he didn't understand Runes, so he could only look at the other Runemasters.
"If Major General Wang is really eighty percent confident, and the defensive power of the formation is indeed amazing, then we have no reason to reject it," Chu Yongnian said as he looked at everyone.
"Then this matter will be led by Wang Teng. Let's start setting up the formation today," Governor Jiang was decisive in his actions and immediately made the decision.
"I have no problem." Wang Teng nodded.
Since he treated the Eastern Sea as his headquarters, he naturally didn't dare to borrow the hands of others to set up the defensive formation. He had to personally set it up to be at ease.
The other Runemasters didn't have any objections for the time being.
Wang Teng didn't waste any time and immediately explained the structure of the Black Tortoise Heaven Lock Formation to everyone.
It would be a waste to not use so much hard work.
Besides, although this formation was precious, he didn't intend to hide it. Spreading it out could be considered a contribution to humanity.
In any case, he had plenty of this kind of formation. Moreover, it didn't take much effort to obtain it, so there was no pressure at all.
If he had to spend a lot of money to buy it, he wouldn't be so generous.
Wang Teng's attainments in Runes were several levels higher than theirs. Just a few sentences were enough to benefit everyone greatly. The group of Runemasters were intoxicated as they listened. Sometimes they were enlightened, and sometimes they were amazed. It was as if they were students listening to a teacher's lecture.
After a long time, Wang Teng's mouth was dry. He stopped and drank some water.
Everyone looked at him in anticipation. Chu Yongnian suddenly stood up and bowed to Wang Teng. He said in a serious tone, "Thank you.
"Thank you, Master Wang, for clearing our doubts!"
At this time, even the way he addressed Wang Teng had changed. Previously, he called him Major General Wang because he acknowledged his martial strength. Now, he admired Wang Teng's attainments in Runes. It was truly unfathomable.
"Thank you, Master Wang, for clearing our doubts!" The other Runemasters immediately reacted. They all stood up and bowed to express their gratitude.
