Thousand Leaf Pond?
Hearing this, Zhao Feng's heart sped up.
After entering the Clan for a while, he had heard of some of the mysterious places in the Clan such as the Floating Crest Palace, Hollow Building and Thousand Leaf Pond.
The Floating Crest Palace was the foundation of the Clan and was the most mysterious. Even the current Clan Master and Elders might not be able to find out all of its secrets.
As for the Thousand Leaf Pond, although it couldn't be compared to the Floating Crest Palace and Hollow Building, it was still a mysterious place in the Clan.
The Thousand Leaf Pool itself was a miraculous land of fortune within the sect. This pool formed its own pattern, and it could naturally gather the essence of the world's Origin Qi. Later on, the sect's masters joined hands to set up the "Origin Gathering Array", which lasted for a thousand years. This caused the water in the pool to possess a certain spirituality, and it had a strange effect on the body of a cultivator.
If Zhao Feng was able to enter the Thousand Leaf Pond, it would be very useful for his Silver Wall Technique to break through to the Ascended Realm.
"Senior Zhang, I heard that only inner disciples have the chance to enter the Thousand Leaf Pond …"
Zhao Feng said suspiciously.
"Hehe, the Thousand Leaf Pond is an important place of the Clan and it's not a place that any inner disciple can use. Being the Vice Head of the Clan Mission Division, I'm in charge of this pond. If you can perform well in arrays, such as comprehending those books within seven days, you'll be considered a peerless genius. At that time, I'll make an exception and let you enter the Thousand Leaf Pond. "
Old man Zhang explained with a smile.
Zhao Feng instantly understood.
According to the rules, an outer disciple like him couldn't enter the Thousand Leaf Pond.
But even in the Clan, there were a small number of people who had special privileges.
For example, old man Zhang was the Vice Head of the Clan Mission Division and he was in charge of the Thousand Leaf Pond. He could open the back door for Zhao Feng.
Of course, Zhao Feng had to show that he was talented in arrays and only then would he have the 'right' to let old man Zhang use his special privileges.
After saying goodbye to old man Zhang, seven books about arrays appeared in Zhao Feng's mind.
These books went from simple to complex. The first book, Introduction to Array Formations, was the simplest. As the name suggested, it was basic knowledge.
"Introduction to Array Formations" basically didn't require much comprehension. As long as one could memorize it, one would be able to learn seventy to eighty percent of it.
By the time Zhao Feng returned to his residence, he had already fully comprehended the first book, Introduction to Array Formations.
Next up was the second book, A Beginner's Understanding of the Forty-Nine Basic Formations. Understanding some common basic formations would pose a certain level of difficulty for novices.
"If it was an ordinary person, it would be very difficult to master these seven books without two to three years of practice. Even some geniuses would need a few months. "
From the second book, Zhao Feng felt a certain degree of difficulty, and doubts arose in his heart.
To a certain extent, it could be said that Elder Zhang was deliberately making things difficult for him by giving him seven array formation books!
Even for ordinary geniuses, this was an impossible task.
Zhao Feng couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think too much about it and focused on deciphering these books.
The second book, Basics of Forty-nine Formations, was not a problem for Zhao Feng. He estimated that he would be able to master it tonight.
Halfway through his comprehension, Zhao Feng realised something.
The Illusion Fish Picture that he had previously comprehended seemed to be connected to these arrays, as if they were of the same origin.
This meant that if he comprehended the Illusion Fish Picture and these array books at the same time, he would be able to speed up his comprehension.
Excitement flickered in Zhao Feng's eyes, and he wanted to completely digest the contents of the seven books in one go.
However, on the same day, a piece of news interrupted him.
"Substitute inner disciple 'Zhao Feng', in three days, the sixteenth substitute inner disciple 'Xiao Sun' will challenge you."
The Outer Hall Division sent someone over to deliver the news.
Challenger: Xiao Sun
Substitute inner disciple, ranked sixteenth
Challenged: Zhao Feng
Substitute inner disciple, ranked thirteenth
"This Xiao Sun is really going to challenge me?"
Zhao Feng threw the letter to the side, not putting it in his eyes.
But not long after, Princess Yun Mengxiang came to visit.
"You need to be careful of Xiao Sun! The Blazing Sun Blade Technique that he cultivated was a simplified version of the Middle Class Mortal skill of the Broken Moon Clan, the Blazing Sun Manual. After entering the sect, he had spent a lot of Primal Crystal Stones and obtained the complete 《Blazing Sun Art》 through his connections in the sect. After obtaining it, his cultivation increased dramatically and adding on the fact that he's at the half-step Ascended Realm, his strength is comparable to the top ten. "
Yun Mengxiang said with a solemn expression.
Middle class Mortal skill?
Hearing this, Zhao Feng's expression changed slightly.
Mortal skills were equivalent to Holy martial arts in the mortal world. They were split into Low class, Middle class, High class and Peak class.
There was a huge difference between the four levels of Mortal Level Cultivation Techniques.
The difference between each level was like the difference between the clouds and the mud.
Peak class Mortal skills were what made the Broken Moon Clan famous. They were extremely high level and their power couldn't be estimated.
If one were to ask how strong a Middle class Mortal skill was, then one had to mention Bei Moi's Ripple Skill.
Back in the Guanjun Palace, during the sparring session.
With Bei Moi's peak eighth rank cultivation, he sent Yang Qingshan, Nan Gongfan, Zhao Feng and the other seventh and eighth ranks flying with one move. How arrogant was that?
One had to know that at that time, Yang Qingshan, Nan Gongfan and Zhao Feng all had Mortal skills and although there was a difference in cultivation, the difference wasn't too big.
After entering the Clan, Zhao Feng started to understand that Bei Moi's Ripple Skill was a Middle class Mortal skill.
And this time.
The opponent Zhao Feng was facing was also a Middle class Mortal skill and his cultivation had reached the half-step Ascended Realm!
"How hard is a Middle class Mortal skill compared to those below the Ascended Realm? Xiao Sun has just obtained the Blazing Sun Manual, so he won't be able to use it well. "
Zhao Feng said, his body brimming with confidence.
Unless Xiao Sun was as strong as Bei Moi, who was not only talented, but also had high comprehension.
Seeing Zhao Feng's reaction, Yun Mengxiang was only slightly surprised. After all, Zhao Feng's performance these past few days had toppled everything she knew.
"There's one more thing."
Yun Mengxiang said hesitantly.
"Speak."
Zhao Feng said directly.
"It's like this … Your two Senior Brothers haven't been doing well recently. Do you know?"
Yun Mengxiang said carefully.
"My two Senior Brothers? How are they! "
Zhao Feng's expression changed slightly.
… …
Not long later, Zhao Feng and Yun Mengxiang arrived at the place where the outer disciples lived.
This place was for normal outer disciples and Zhao Feng had stayed here before.
Zhao Feng arrived in front of Yang Qingshan's room and knocked on the door, only to see a skinny face.
When Yang Qingshan saw Zhao Feng, he was first stunned, then ashamed. He wanted to speak, but coughed out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale white.
"Senior Brother Yang!"
Zhao Feng immediately helped Yang Qingshan up and gave him a 'Blood Healing Pill' from the Grass-Wood Division.
After Yang Qingshan ate the pill, he started to feel better.
Following this, Nan Gongfan, who was in the next room, also came in.
Nan Gongfan's face was swollen, all of his injuries were external, but Yang Qingshan's internal injuries weren't light.
After asking around, Zhao Feng found out that in the past five to six days, his two Senior Brothers had been bullied by a few substitute inner disciples led by 'Hou Yuan'.
"These guys always find trouble with us and purposely cause trouble when we're working …"
Nan Gongfan said with a sad face.
It didn't take long for Zhao Feng to figure out what was going on.
That day, he had defeated Ji Fengyun on the challenge stage, establishing his prestige in the outer disciples, allowing them to live in peace for a few days.
But it didn't last long.
Four to five days ago, 'Hou Yuan', who was ranked fourth, and 'Hong Brothers', who were ranked eighth and ninth, tried all sorts of ways to cause trouble.
In just a few days, Yang Qingshan and Nan Gongfan were tormented to the point that they couldn't cultivate or work.
Hou Yuan only showed up occasionally, but the Hong Brothers were the ones who did it.
The Hong Brothers were a pair of twins. The older brother was called Hong San and the younger brother was Hong Si.
This pair of twin brothers possessed similar talents and strength, and they were ranked eighth and ninth among the Inner Disciple Substitutes.
"Why didn't you guys tell me earlier?"
Zhao Feng suppressed his anger.
Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan had bitter expressions.
"We were afraid of disturbing Junior Brother, so we wanted to endure it for a while."
Nan Gongfan lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhao Feng.
"Looks like I need to think of a way to solve this once and for all."
Zhao Feng's eyes turned cold as he slowly stood up.
Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan's expressions changed: "Junior Brother Zhao, don't do anything rash! That Hou Yuan succeeded a few days ago and became the third substitute inner disciple. "
Third substitute!
This was the overlord of the outer disciples, and he was only half a line away from becoming an inner disciple.
Yun Mengxiang's face was also filled with anxiety as she tried to stop Zhao Feng, worried that he would do something rash.
"Don't worry, this was my goal to become an inner disciple."
Zhao Feng's voice was calm and firm.
Yun Mengxiang realised that his eyes were calm and didn't look like he would do anything rash.
Furthermore, Yun Mengxiang had never seen Zhao Feng do anything rash, as if everything was under his control.
Teng!
Zhao Feng's figure leapt into the air as he charged towards a certain direction.
"Junior Brother Zhao! Where are you going? "
The three behind him chased after him.
"To the Outer Hall Division."
Zhao Feng's voice was filled with killing intent.
After leaping for a while, Zhao Feng arrived at the Outer Hall Division.
The Outer Hall Hall was in charge of the Outer Hall of the sect, controlling the dispatch and distribution of Outer Hall Disciples.
"It's getting late, what are you doing here?"
An old man at the Ascended Realm furrowed his eyebrows.
"I'm here to challenge the substitute inner disciples."
Zhao Feng said.
"Tell me your name."
The Ascended Realm elder's eyes turned and landed on Zhao Feng. He knew who he was.
"I'm here to challenge the 9th … Hong Si!"
"I'm here to challenge the 8th … Hong San!"
"I'm here to challenge the 3rd … Hou Yuan!"
A cold and decisive voice came from the entrance of the main hall.
What!
The old man at the Ascended Realm widened his eyes and scolded: "What kind of rule is this? Challenging so many people at once?"
At the same time.
Yun Mengxiang, Nan Gongfan and Yang Qingshan's faces were also filled with shock.
This was crazy …
"Junior Brother Zhao!"
Amidst their exclamations, they realised that Zhao Feng was standing there coldly without any emotions on his face.
Challenging the 9th, 8th and 3rd ranked disciples at the same time was enough to shock the outer disciples.
"No! This is against the rules. "
The old man at the Ascended Realm shook his head.
Zhao Feng stood there without moving, as if he was unwilling to give up.
He wanted to challenge all three of them at the same time so that he wouldn't have to worry about them.
Just when Zhao Feng was about to give up.
"Accept his request!"
An indifferent voice came from the depths of the great hall. It had a domineering tone of someone looking down on them.
