This round of array formations was especially difficult. Furthermore, the contents of the test were also what she did not expect. When she heard the contents of the test, she could only say that this master of hers thought too highly of her.
Hu Hu came to the front of the rostrum and said, "My round's test is also very simple. The place where you are at already has an array formation prepared. It's a trapping array. You have to come out from inside. But if you activate the array formation hidden inside the array formation when you crack the array formation, it will become a killing array! "
She understood this kind of array formation combination. As long as she found the pattern, it was not considered too difficult. But the moment the array formation activated, she became depressed.
"It's actually a replica array of the Ten Great Ancient Array Formations! Master, do you really think that I'm that impressive? " She could not help but complain. The people outside could not hear her voice, but they could read her lips. Coupled with her expression, they all knew how depressed she was.
"Old Hu, you actually used an imitation array of an ancient array. Isn't this a little too much?" He Lan frowned, feeling unjust for Sima Youyue.
"If she can't pass this array, what will she do if she encounters an ancient array in the future?" Hu Hu said, "Moreover, you all know about her situation. If she goes to that place in the future, how can she protect herself if she doesn't have some skills? If she can't pass, she will stay behind and continue learning! "
He said this, and the others also felt that what he said was reasonable.
"But she is also in a hurry to leave, sigh …"
Although she did not appear to be in a hurry and stayed behind to calm herself down, she was still anxious to save her mother. This was no longer a secret among the higher-ups of the hidden sects. Otherwise, they would not have agreed to let her finish the apprenticeship examinations in such a short period of time.
Back then, they had held a private meeting with Sima Youyue and told them about her situation, including her background, her experiences, her growth, the things that she had done in the human realm and the World of Spirits and Souls and so on. In the end, they concluded that she should be the person who bore the Mandate of Heaven that they had been waiting for.
As the higher-ups of this world, they had the obligation to help her grow. That was why they had allowed her to study in various sects all these years. They also knew that she probably had a treasure that could slow down time, which was why she had been able to learn so many things in such a short period of time.
Over twenty years in the Soul Tower was equivalent to over two hundred years. Coupled with her talent and the foundation she already had, it was not difficult for her to succeed.
Moreover, they had also predicted that chaos was coming, and that she had to leave. There were still many things in this world waiting for her to do.
Their hearts were filled with pride at the thought that they could personally guide her growth.
But now, she might not be able to pass the array formation examination.
Sima Youyue walked in the array formation. She felt that she had been walking in one direction, but to the people outside, she seemed to be walking around in a very small area.
She felt that the imitation array of the ancient array formation was more troublesome, because it had some changes on the basis of the ancient array formation. It had the power of the ancient array formation, but there were more variations, and some were even stronger.
Moreover, this array formation had been changed by Hu Hu into a combination array. Once a killing array was triggered, it would be terrible.
She would be trapped and killed, and she could feel that the power of the killing array would not be weaker than this trapping array.
Thinking of this, she wanted to vomit blood. It was just an examination, but her master was trying to torture her to death!
"Whoosh —"
The sound of the wind rushed over. She dodged, and a spiritual force brushed past her ear, scraping the skin on her ear. Just a little more, and she would not be able to keep her ear!
She actually triggered the killing array!
Sima Youyue wanted to vomit blood. She had just figured out the method to break the trapping array, and now it had triggered the killing array. Now, she not only had to deal with these attacks, but she also had to break the array. Most importantly, the attacks were so fierce, she almost did not have the time and experience to break the array.
Seeing the attack of the killing array, the crowd was in an uproar. This attack was too fierce! With Sima Youyue's strength, there was no way she could withstand it!
"Old Hu, don't you think you've gone overboard?" The people on the rostrum were also worried. The attack seemed to be a little too fierce.
Only Hu Hu smiled, and his previous worries were swept away.
"Youyue is injured, how can you still smile at this time!" He Lan said with a sullen face.
"You guys continue watching." Hu Hu did not explain, but the smile on his face was much wider.
"Is there something fishy?"
They turned their attention to Sima Youyue again, only to see her being injured by those attacks, and running around in the array.
The people on the rostrum were distressed. When had their goddess ever been in such a sorry state? She was so seriously injured, and even forced to run around. Her image was gone!
"Pfft —"
Unable to dodge, an illusory longsword stabbed into her shoulder, only two fingers away from her heart. If it went down a little more …
"Old Hu!" Ni Le was anxious. "If this goes on, she will die!"
"You'd better close the array quickly!"
In this way, she could be considered to have failed the assessment.
"Don't be anxious." Hu Hu's smile did not change. "Just wait a little more."
Can? Can what? They did not see any signs of her breaking the array.
"Just wait and see, the situation is about to change!" Hu Hu said.
He would not joke around with Sima Youyue's life. Since he said so, everyone could only wait.
They waited anxiously, and their hearts were in their throats. Fortunately, they did not wait for too long, or else their lives would be short.
Sima Youyue was injured again, on the other shoulder, in the same position. She was stabbed again. Now, there was a long sword on each shoulder, a few broken arrows on her legs, and wounds all over her body.
However, when her shoulder was stabbed, she smiled. That smile was so confident, so bright, that it made people feel that no matter what difficulties there were, they could not stop her footsteps.
She would keep moving forward, to a height that had never been reached before!
"Array, rise!"
As she shouted, an array lit up around her. This array was not big, but it was just enough to protect her, and it weakened the attack of the trapping array.
"She actually set up an array in the process of escaping!"
Everyone exclaimed. Previously, no one saw that her messy footsteps had actually drawn out an array pattern.
"Old Hu, you saw it long ago!" Ni Le said.
Hu Hu smiled without saying a word.
"Is this array formation able to resist your trapping array? The attack seems to be a lot smaller. "Lu Yan asked.
"I think so too, it seems to be a lot smaller …" He Lan said.
"It can't be considered a trapping array to resist. Not only did she set up an array, but she also used the trapping array's array pattern to let some of the trapping array's power be used by her. This way, she can protect herself and weaken the attack. Once she recovers, this array formation won't pose any difficulty to her, "Hu Hu explained to everyone.
