However, after a while, Luo Zhenxiang's expression turned ugly again.
This was because he realized that the distance between him and Lin Long was gradually narrowing. Originally, they were five questions apart, but now, they were only three questions apart.
Moreover, he realized that Lin Long still took the same amount of time to solve the questions.
'Could it be that these questions are really not difficult for him?' This thought popped up in his mind again.
With this thought in mind, he was naturally shocked.
However, since he had already come this far, how could he give up so easily? Hence, he buried his head in solving the questions again.
In just a short while, he finished this question and moved on to the next one.
However, after reading the question on the wooden board, his expression became even more unsightly.
This was because this question seemed to be very difficult, but so what if it was difficult? He could only bite the bullet and continue.
After spending a lot of effort, he finally solved this question.
Because he was so focused just now, he did not know how long he spent on this question.
After letting out a long breath, he subconsciously looked to his left. After looking, his eyes immediately widened because Linlong, who was a few questions away from him just now, was actually standing in the same row as him.
In other words, Linlong had already caught up with him.
However, Lin Long should have just arrived, so he was still ahead of him. Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved and immediately moved on to the next question.
As soon as he touched this question, his face could not help but twitch because this question was more difficult than the previous one.
If this kid's answering speed did not change, wouldn't he be surpassed by him? This thought popped up in his mind.
With this thought, he could not help but look at Linlong behind him.
Perhaps he would be stumped by the current question. After comforting himself, he continued to solve the question.
However, this question was too difficult. After thinking for a while, he still had no clue. Feeling gloomy, he subconsciously looked behind him.
After looking, his eyes widened again because Linlong had already finished that question, which meant that Linlong had caught up with him again.
"You … How did you solve the question so quickly? Could it be that this kind of question is not difficult at all for you?" Luo Zhenxiang could not help but shout.
As the head of the Top Wood Sect, he didn't have the demeanor of a head.
He wasn't the only one who was surprised. Everyone else, including Dong Le, had their mouths agape because Lin Long's solving speed hadn't changed at all.
It was as if the difficulty of the later questions was no different from the previous ones.
However, they had seen how long Luo Zhenxiang had been stuck at the previous question.
"It should be like what you said." Linlong smiled calmly, and his gaze shifted to the wooden plaque. He looked calm and composed, a world of difference from Luo Zhenxiang's nervousness and shock.
"You … who exactly are you? How are you so knowledgeable?" Luo Zhenxiang couldn't help asking.
After a while, he thought of something and said, "Or maybe, you've been here for a long time, and you've done these questions countless times?"
Because if that wasn't the case, it wouldn't make sense at all.
"That might be the case!"
The others couldn't help but say the same.
"You can think whatever you want," Linlong said indifferently.
In any case, he didn't have much to do with these people. Whatever they said, he wouldn't lose anything.
Luo Zhenxiang's face twitched when he heard Linlong's perfunctory reply.
Since the other party didn't say anything, what else could he do? He could only bury his head in solving the questions again.
He didn't know if he was provoked or what, but he finally thought of the steps to solving the questions.
'I just need a little more time, and I'll be able to solve this question.' Lin Long walked back to the kid after he was done.
However, the smile on his face immediately froze as soon as this thought appeared in his mind. This was because Linlong had obviously finished answering the question and continued to walk toward the wooden plaque.
In other words, Linlong had already surpassed him.
'F * ck your grandma!' Luo Zhenxiang couldn't help but curse in his heart.
If he wasn't a sect master, he would definitely curse out loud.
Although Luo Zhixiang managed to solve the question, it took him a long time. As for Linlong, he had already taken advantage of this time to surpass him by three questions.
"The gap is too big. There's no way he can catch up." One of Luo Zhenxiang's subordinates couldn't help but shake his head.
"Catch up? You think too highly of your Sect Leader. I suspect that he might not even be able to solve the next question. "Someone on Dong Le's side immediately ridiculed.
"What are you so proud of? Your sect master has long been left behind by our sect master. "Luo Zhenxiang's subordinates immediately retorted.
That was indeed the case. Therefore, Dong Le's subordinates could only shut their mouths.
Then, after another two hours, Linlong finally solved all the questions.
At this time, Luo Zhenxiang was still a long distance away from the finish line.
As for Dong Le, he was even further away.
Luo Zhenxiang already knew that he would lose, so he wasn't so surprised.
He could only shake his head helplessly. Why did he have to encounter such an abnormal person?
It was also at this time that the Formation Spirit's voice rang out again. "The winner has been decided …"
Before the Formation Spirit's voice faded, Luo Zhenxiang was already unwilling to give up. "Lord Formation Spirit, I object!"
"What are you objecting to?" Hearing Luo Zhenxiang's words, the Formation Spirit was clearly a little surprised.
"I think that Lin Gu has been here for a long time. Otherwise, how could he have solved these questions so easily?" Luo Zhenxiang said, unwilling to give up.
He wasn't willing to just hand over the treasures inside to Linlong.
"Don't you guys think so?" Then, Luo Zhenxiang shouted at his subordinates.
He naturally wanted his subordinates to support him. Because this way, the Formation Spirit might support them.
Who knew that the Formation Spirit would directly say, "Ridiculous, this young man entered the Guluo Hall at the same time as you guys!"
"It can't be. Then how could he solve it so easily? I don't believe it." Luo Zhenxiang still said.
"What? You even dare to question me?" The Formation Spirit's voice suddenly turned cold.
Then, an invisible force suddenly appeared in the void and directly attacked Luo Zhenxiang.
Luo Zhenxiang couldn't activate the energy in his body at all. Therefore, in the next moment, he was directly sent flying by the force and smashed to the ground.
"Since it's your first offense, I'll give you a chance to change. If you dare to question me again, I'll definitely make you fall in this Guluo Hall!" The Formation Spirit said coldly.
"I understand." Luo Zhenxiang could only say gloomily.
"Do you guys have any objections?" Then, the Formation Spirit asked again. He was naturally asking the others at the scene.
"No objections." These people hurriedly shouted.
How could they dare to follow in Luo Zhenxiang's footsteps?
"Alright, then prepare for the second round!" The Formation Spirit said coldly.
"There's a second round?" Hearing the Formation Spirit's words, Luo Zhenxiang and the others immediately shouted with joy.
They thought that there was only one round of competition. Who would have thought that there was actually a second round? In this way, they still had a chance.
"Of course. Just by being knowledgeable, how can you obtain the item left behind by Master?" The Formation Spirit said proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes. Lord Formation Spirit, you're right." Luo Zhenxiang, Dong Le, and the others agreed.
"Then what's the second round?" Dong Le asked.
Dong Le was naturally happy. Although he was defeated miserably just now, he still had a chance if there was a second round.
"The second round is to let you guys make wooden puppets on the spot. Using the same materials, whoever makes a stronger wooden puppet will win." The Formation Spirit said.
"Is that so? That's great. Then I, Dong Le, will definitely win the second round!" Dong Le immediately said happily.
Before Luo Zhenxiang was expelled from the Top Wood Sect, his ability to make wooden puppets was many times stronger than Luo Zhenxiang's. Therefore, even if Luo Zhenxiang surpassed him in terms of knowledge, he still felt that Luo Zhenxiang was inferior to him.
After all, this kind of production ability couldn't be changed in a short time.
"Tsk tsk, Dong Le, I think you're a frog at the bottom of a well. You're short-sighted." Luo Zhenxiang mocked.
"Could it be that your ability to make wooden puppets has improved by leaps and bounds during this period of time?" Dong Le sneered.
"I don't dare to say it has improved by leaps and bounds. At least, it won't be worse than you, Dong Le." Luo Zhenxiang said indifferently.
"Is that so? Then let's see who's the real deal." Dong Le said.
How could he believe Luo Zhenxiang's words? Therefore, he wasn't worried at all.
Even though the two of them were bickering, they still didn't take Linlong seriously. After all, making wooden puppets required time, because only time could increase proficiency. It wasn't like knowledge, where as long as you were smart enough, you could make a huge improvement in a short period of time.
Linlong was so young, so they naturally didn't think that he had any experience.
Without experience, he naturally couldn't compare to them.
"Okay, the competition begins now!" The formation spirit's voice suddenly rang out.
Then, a few stone slabs in the center of the hall actually sank. A moment later, a wooden table rose from below. Everyone realized that there were three sets of materials for making wooden puppets on the wooden table.
"Each of you can take one set and start making wooden puppets." The formation spirit said.
"No way, Lord Formation Spirit. Does this mean that the three of us only have one set of materials each?" Dong Le couldn't help but ask.
"If you can even fail to make such materials, then you don't have the qualifications to inherit master's things!" The formation spirit said coldly.
"Alright." Dong Le said gloomily when he heard the formation spirit's words.
Although Luo Zhenxiang didn't say anything, from his expression, it could be seen that he was a little dissatisfied with the formation spirit's arrangement.
After all, ever since they were young, when didn't each of them have three sets of materials?
Then, the three of them hurriedly took the materials in front of them and seriously began to make wooden puppets.
As for the others, they all widened their eyes at their sect leader. They rarely saw the sect leader make wooden puppets, so they naturally wouldn't let go of such an opportunity.
