Peng peng peng peng!
Fan Xiaoxing's eyes reddened in excitement after defeating more than a dozen descendants of Ancient Sages consecutively and eliminating them.
In less than two hours after learning from Little Xu, he had already eliminated more than three hundred people on his own!
He would have never dared to dream of such a rate of improvement in the past, but he had managed to do it for real.
However, he was still lacking compared to Fan Xiaofeng. That fellow had already eliminated more than seven hundred people!
As for Little Xu, he did not make a move at all. Instead, he had been following behind them all this while. As long as the two of them made the slightest mistake, he would immediately berate them. It was for this reason that they were able to make such a huge leap in their cultivation within such a short period of time.
"That's more like it. Once we stabilize our cultivation a little more, we should be able to make a breakthrough soon …"
After defeating the two of them, Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
Even though the two of them were a little clumsy, he had still managed to raise their fighting prowess by quite a bit.
After this trial, both their Soul Depth and fighting prowess would surely soar by leaps and bounds. As for what realm they would reach in the end, that was not something that he could control.
"There are only a hundred people left in the elimination round. The trial will end in advance!"
Along with a resounding voice, the crowd felt a surge of energy shrouding them, and the next moment, they appeared on the square in front of the mountain.
Zhang Xuan scanned his surroundings and noted that there were exactly a hundred people in the area. Other than the three of them, almost everyone else was injured, and they looked rather unkempt.
Those who were able to survive in the elimination round of more than two thousand people might seem ordinary, but in truth, every single one of them possessed some kind of unique capability. Of course, that was assuming that they did not meet the three of them.
"Congratulations on becoming the new disciples of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism!"
Zhong Qing glanced at Zhang Xuan and the others, and his cheeks twitched. He felt an urge to rush forward and pummel them, but he eventually held himself back.
If they were eliminated, they could only blame it on their juniors being inferior. Even with his esteemed standing in the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, he would not lower himself to do such a thing.
Zhong Qing continued. "Later on, all of you will be able to exchange your jade token for a storage ring. Inside the storage ring is the method to enter the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, as well as the Introspective Convalescence realm cultivation technique and cultivation resources. If you manage to enter the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism within the next three days, you'll become a true student of the Master Teacher Pavilion. This isn't considered a test, so it should be a piece of cake for you. However, I must warn you in advance that the earlier you enter the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, the better your chances of choosing a better teacher.
Since the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism was an academy, it should be similar to other academies. While the teachers could choose their students, the students could also choose their teachers.
Each teacher's student quota was limited. Those who entered first would have the opportunity to choose better teachers, and the resources they would receive would be different as well.
"Alright, hand over the jade tablet on your chest!"
Along with a shout, the jade tokens on everyone's chests flew up in unison. In the next moment, 100 storage rings flew towards everyone.
Zhang Xuan gently pinched his finger, and the ring fell into his palm. With a thought, the contents of the ring entered his mind.
As expected, it was the Introspective Convalescence realm cultivation technique. There was no unified cultivation technique on the Master Teacher Continent, and there was no such cultivation technique in the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism either. However, the cultivation technique provided a clear direction. As long as one cultivated it diligently, it would be much easier for them to achieve a breakthrough.
Other than the cultivation technique, there was also a grade-9 Strength Moulding Pill.
After consuming it, one's physical body and zhenqi would be tempered once more, allowing one to reach the Introspective Convalescence realm, thus increasing their chances of achieving a breakthrough by ten percent.
Lastly, there was a jade token.
Zhang Xuan took it out and tapped it lightly, but he did not sense anything at all.
"There's a formation inscribed on the jade token. If you wish to see the contents inside, you'll have to decipher the formation first. In fact, this is also a test of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism!"
Fan Xiaofeng explained, seemingly knowing what Zhang Xuan was going to do.
"Test? What if there are some who aren't proficient in formations? "
Zhang Xuan asked.
There were some who were proficient in formations, and there were some who weren't. Wasn't it a little unfair to use such a test on such people?
"The formation inscribed on the jade token isn't complicated, but the difficulty lies in its precision. Even those who are proficient in formations won't have much of an advantage over those who are proficient in formations. You'll have to use your zhenqi to decipher the formation bit by bit. Even though it's called a test, it's more like a test for those who wish to enter the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism.
Fan Xiaofeng explained.
Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.
From the moment Fan Xiaofeng and Fan Xiaoxing had entered the mountain, their cultivation and zhenqi volume had not increased at all. However, their fighting prowess had increased by more than twofold, putting countless experts at a disadvantage. More importantly, their control over their strength had reached a level where they were able to control it to the slightest degree.
As long as they didn't waste any of their strength, their fighting prowess would increase exponentially.
Scanning the jade token with his Spiritual Perception, Zhang Xuan saw innumerable inscriptions on it. In order to decipher them, he would have to control his zhenqi to the same degree.
It might be difficult for others, but to Zhang Xuan, it was nothing at all. He placed his hand lightly on the jade token.
Hula!
The seal immediately opened, and the contents of the jade token flowed into Zhang Xuan's mind.
It was the exact location of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism.
As expected, the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism was not in the vicinity. Instead, it was located ten thousand li away from the desert. In order to enter the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, one would have to make use of the jade token in one's hand and follow a special route.
"Alright, you can begin deciphering the formation inscribed on the jade token now!"
Seeing that everyone had taken out their jade tokens, Zhong Qing scanned the surroundings and said, "In the history of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, the fastest ancestor of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism managed to decipher the formation in six hours. In the past hundred years, the fastest ancestor of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism was the descendant of Kong Shi, Kong Shiyao, who managed to decipher the formation in six hours. After her was the descendant of Ancient Sage Zi Yuan, Yan Xue, who managed to decipher the formation in eight hours! As long as any of you can complete the formation within a day, you'll be considered to have surpassed your limits! "
The formation inscribed on the jade token might seem simple, but it was actually extremely difficult to operate. Without a calm state of mind and superior control over one's zhenqi, it would be nigh impossible to succeed.
Even the current number one genius of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism, Kong Shiyao, had taken six hours to decipher the formation.
"Let me give you a word of advice in advance. Don't rush things, or else you'll end up getting impatient. Even if you manage to clear the selection, you won't be able to become an offspring of the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism!"
Zhong Qing harrumphed coldly as he waved his hand lightly.
Hula!
A mirror-like barrier materialized before everyone's eyes.
"This is a unique Teleportation Formation. As long as you decipher the formation inscribed on the jade token, you'll be sucked into the Teleportation Formation, and you'll be teleported to the Great Phrontistery of Confucianism through a special method. Let's begin deciphering the formation now. I'd like to see how long it takes for the fastest of you …"
Zhong Qing harrumphed coldly, but before he could finish his words, the barrier suddenly shook.
Following which, a silhouette slowly rose into the air, and with a light tap of his foot, he dived right into the barrier.
"He has already deciphered the formation?"
The surroundings were deathly silent.
