On top of the field, Dong Fang Yu's expression changed and she found it hard to hide her shock.
She was just about to use the technique to activate the array, but Ling Xian walked in using his own abilities. Why wouldn't she be shocked?
Even the few elders in midair, who were as lofty and unmoving as mountains, were visibly moved.
They knew very well that this array was no ordinary item. It was personally created by the Leader of Arrays and cannot be broken by anyone below the level of a master. Even a master can't solve it without spending some time.
Yet Ling Xian merely flapped around his sleeve and broke down the protective barrier. How terrifying was his array skills?
Ignoring everything else, this alone was enough to prove that his attainment in arrays surpassed normal array masters!
At the very least, normal Array Masters would not be able to do it as easily as he did!
Therefore, after Ling Xian walked in so casually, the seven elders and Dong Fang Yu's expression changed.
Some people were even beginning to suspect if this ordinary looking young man was the legendary Master Xian.
However, as the saying goes, the connoisseur recognizes the artistry, the layman simply enjoys the show.
Dong Fang Yu and them knew how powerful this array was and naturally understood how difficult it was for Ling Xian to do what he just did. Therefore, to them, not only was this a show, it was also a joke.
"Haha, I am dying of laughter. This last ranked brat dares to participate in the competition of crafts?"
"Interesting. A last ranked brat dares to step inside the array. I am starting to admire his stupidity, haha."
"How laughable. I really don't know how such an idiot can exist in this world."
"Let's wait and see how this idiot makes a fool out of himself."
Everyone had a sarcastic smile on their faces. Their words were full of sarcasm and they were merciless. It was as if mocking Ling Xian brought them great joy.
What they didn't realize was that Dong Fang Yu was frowning. The way she looked at them was now filled with pity.
When her grandfather, Dong Fang Bi, treated Ling Xian with so much respect and even scolded her for his sake, she already had some guesses. Now that Ling Xian had broken the array with a wave of his hand, she was even more certain of her guess.
All that was left was the final confirmation.
Ling Xian didn't even hear those people's sarcasm. Even if he did, he wouldn't have reacted.
Facts speak for themselves. As long as he becomes the winner of the competition for the Path of Crafts, who can laugh at him? Who would dare to mock him?
Therefore, Ling Xian marched forward calmly. The moment he stepped into the array, he felt a gaze on him.
Xiang Ru Gu.
His handsome face, which even women would be jealous of, was filled with complex emotions. There was surprise, determination, and bitterness.
Even though he wasn't sure if the young man before him was the Master Xian or the Master of Crafts or Crafts, he wasn't certain of it.
Ten years ago, he made the Qi Testing Dial of the Eighth Realm. Now, ten years had passed. What level he was he made to be with crafts?
Xiang Xian didn't know. But he knew very well that Fang Yu was to be of to.
Sensing this person's hostile stare, Ling Xian smiled apologetically, "I am sorry. I have to win the Path of Crafts. So, I can only apologize."
At that, everyone else who was crafting their weapons shifted their gazes over. Their eyes were full of disdain.
"What an idiot. Xiang Ru Gu is the strongest here. What gives him the right to apologize?"
"Yeah, he is talking like he is going to win for sure. Not only is he arrogant, but he is also stupid."
"Hehe, I can't wait for the moment he makes a fool of himself."
Everyone discussed. Other than disdain in their voices, there was sarcasm.
Who was Xiang Ru Gu?
He was the most talented pupil from the Path of Crafts in the last decade. Along with the other three paths, he was known as the Shang Qing Four Heroes. This wasn't a title he gave himself, it was a title everyone agreed upon.
Everyone from the Shang Qing Sect thought the winner of this year's competition would be Xiang Ru Gu. Even the competitors here had no intention of competing against him for first place. They were competing for second and third place.
To them, out of all the pupils from the Path of Crafts in the last decade, nobody could steal his winning seat. Nobody could even compete against him!
This was why when Ling Xian apologized to Xiang Ru Gu, everyone looked at him with disdain.
Only Xiang Ru Gu didn't show any disdain. Instead, his expression turned serious. He knew very well just how capable the person before him was. If Ling Xian was determined to win, then he had no hope.
"Looks like you're determined to win the championship."
Xiang Ru Gu softly sighed. Bitterness flashed across his handsome face. Very quickly, however, his expression turned determined. Though there was no hope, he was not going to give up!
"I am sorry."
Ling Xian smiled apologetically, "Let's compete fairly based on our abilities."
"Alright, I will fight you today." Xiang Ru Gu nodded. He then used all his strength to craft the treasure inside the cauldron.
Before Ling Xian arrived, he and everyone else had been crafting for a long time. Therefore, the treasure inside his cauldron was only one step away.
"Solidify!"
Xiang Ru Gu screamed. Perhaps it was because Ling Xian's arrival made him feel pressure like never before. Therefore, after he formed a hand seal, the effect it produced was far more effective than usual.
The cauldron before him began to shake violently and emit a dense amount of light. Then, the lid automatically opened and a meter-long sword howled out.
Whooosh!
A ray of cold light appeared. Like a dragon coming out of the abyss or a serpent entering the ocean, it emitted a chilling coldness.
In an instant, everyone exclaimed in shock.
"It's a sixth realm treasure! Isn't Xiang Ru Gu of the seventh realm? Did he just break through? "
"This sixth realm Qi cannot be wrong. Unbelievable. Xiang Ru Gu broke through to the sixth realm at this moment!"
"Haha, this is going to be a good show. Xiang Ru Gu has made a sixth realm treasure. I want to see how this person deals with this!"
Everyone revealed a look of shock as they exclaimed over Xiang Ru Gu's breakthrough and made a sixth realm treasure. They mocked Ling Xian, feeling like he was about to make a fool out of himself.
The spectators in the outside world were the same. All of them exclaimed with shock and displayed their shock. Then, they began to snicker, mocking Ling Xian for overestimating himself.
In the beginning, they didn't think he had the ability to defeat Xiang Ru Gu. Now that this person had a breakthrough and made a sixth realm treasure, they naturally thought even more strongly that Ling Xian could not defeat him.
There wasn't even a sliver of hope.
Even Xiang Ru Gu himself, after finding out that he had made a sixth realm treasure, gained some confidence. His face was glowing as he stared at Ling Xian, "I sure want to see how much you've grown after 10 years."
"You will see very soon."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He took out all the materials needed to make a treasure and prepared to begin crafting. However, before he could even begin, he heard a series of muffled noises.
Then, rays of light flew out of every cauldron and transformed into different shapes and sizes of treasures that intertwined in midair. The blurry rays of light connected together, dazzling like a rainbow, magnificent and magnificent.
The ripples emitted by those treasures could be considered to be extraordinary. At the very least, they were among the new disciples. The weakest of them was of the eighth realm and the highest was of the seventh realm. However, the light they emitted was dim.
It was obvious that the person who made these treasures was not in a stable state.
Therefore, the winner and loser was clear.
Not only were the spectators not surprised by this result, the competitors were not surprised either. Therefore, everyone ignored Ling Xian, who hadn't even begun crafting, and began to congratulate Xiang Ru Gu.
"I was ignored?"
Ling Xian chuckled. This was good. Since everyone had finished crafting, then he only needs to make a treasure that surpasses the sword and the winning seat will be his.
Therefore, he didn't care about the congratulations and took out all the materials he needed to make the Qi Testing Disc.
It wasn't that he didn't know how to make other treasures, it was that he only had the materials for the Qi Testing Disc. On top of that, the Qi Testing Disc was one of the more difficult treasures to make. Even if he only made one of the sixth realm, it would surpass the sword.
Seeing that he took out the materials for the Qi Testing Disc, Xiang Ru Gu's eyelid twitched and uneasiness flashed across his face.
Dongfang Yu felt the same way. She thought to herself, 'It's the Spirit Testing Disc again. I wonder if it will be as shocking as the last two times.'
However, contrary to the two of them, after Ling Xian took out the materials, everyone, including the spectators, began to laugh.
The content of their laughter was that he was extremely stupid, overestimating himself, and extremely laughable.
However, the moment Ling Xian began to brew, the mocking words stopped.
Everyone was stunned. They stared at the man who was starting to craft with shock written all over their faces.
Inside the barrier, Ling Xian's left hand was burning with a silver flame and his right hand was forming a hand seal. Without using the cauldron, he began to craft in midair.
Yet, his movements were extremely smooth and didn't seem to be strenuous or sluggish at all. This scene instantly caused everyone to be shocked.
Since everyone was here to watch the show, they were naturally those who were familiar with crafts and had some knowledge about crafts. As for the competitors and the elders, there was no need to even mention them.
Therefore, they knew very well how difficult Ling Xian's move was. It was impossible for normal craftsmen to do this.
Was this the last place in the ranking?
How was that possible?!
Everyone was in awe. As they continued to watch, everyone's eyes widened and their shock turned into astonishment.
Because within this short period of time, a round disc had formed in Ling Xian's hand and was emitting weak light!
What this meant was something everyone knew better than anyone. Therefore, they were all in awe.
Since Ling Xian began to craft until now, only a few minutes had passed. Yet in such a short period of time, he had created the prototype of the Qi Testing Disc. How unbelievable was this?
Everyone at the scene was in awe as they stared at Ling Xian and the disk that was solidifying in his hand.
Just like that, half an hour passed. When they saw the disc begin to shine, their shock turned into astonishment.
Because not only was the disc emitting light, it was also emitting the vibrations of the fifth realm.
