"Shall we fight? But what sort of battle? " Dong Le could not help but ask.
"Naturally they are the people who are the most proficient in the [Rune wood man] technique. How could Master give these things to someone who is weaker than him in [Rune wood man] techniques?" The formation genie sneered.
"If that's the case, the treasures left behind by my ancestors will all belong to me!" A happy smile surfaced on Dong Le's face.
His disciple's strength was naturally inferior to his, and as for Luo Zhenxiang, there was a large gap between them before. As for Lin Long, he did not think that the young Lin Long had any achievements in the [Rune wood man] cultivation, so, he naturally felt that his own strength in [Rune wood man] knowledge had crushed others.
"Dong Le, you're wrong, Luo Zhenxiang, my strength is no longer as weak as before. All these years, I have been studying the Ancient Wood Sect's Elder Yuan Mu's Rune wood man, and after combining two great sects' Rune wood man s, my strength has become many times stronger than before. Wanting to crush you is simply a piece of cake." Luo Zhenxiang said proudly.
"What?! You're a member of the Ancient Wood Gate!" Dong Le couldn't help but exclaim out loud, "Your innate talent is average, how could the Ancient Wood Sect accept you!?"
The Ancient Wood Sect was a sect that was similar in strength to the Upper Wood Sect in terms of wood man Runes. It was also because of this that Dong Le was shocked.
After all, after being expelled from the Ancient Wood Sect, Luo Zhenxiang wasn't young anymore, and his ability to accept new factions would inevitably be weak. In addition, Luo Zhenxiang had a direct confrontation with the Ancient Wood Sect previously, so he didn't think that the Ancient Wood Sect would actually accept him.
"Powerful people will be welcomed wherever they go. The reason why I was excluded from the Top Wood Sect was because you were worried that my position would be taken by me!" Luo Zhenxiang said coldly.
"Tsk tsk, you really took it for granted." Dong Le ridiculed.
"Alright, stop talking. The competition begins now." The formation genie's hollow voice interrupted the two's conversation.
After that, everyone only felt a blur in front of their eyes as ten rows of wooden tablets suddenly appeared in the hall.
What is it? Perplexed, they immediately looked at these wooden tablets. When they looked at them, they discovered that these tablets were covered with all kinds of questions.
Each column had several hundred wooden tablets, which meant that each column had at least several hundred questions.
"Master Formation Spirit, are you trying to compare our ability to solve problems?" Dong Le could not help but ask.
"Exactly." The genie replied, "Alright, now we will begin. Each of you, choose one."
The moment the formation genie said this, each of them chose a row.
From what the spirit genie said, those who answered well would have a chance. Therefore, the subordinates of the two middle-aged men fought to be the first to answer the questions.
As for Lin Long, he too walked into one of the lines, and just happened to be on Dong Le's left.
"Luo Zhenxiang, I won't lose to you!" By his side, Dong Le said to Luo Zhenxiang who was standing on his right.
"Dong Le, I have already gathered the strength of two of our families. No matter how much you think you're going to lose, you will still lose." Luo Zhenxiang, however, did not mind at all, and looked as if victory was within his grasp.
Only after bickering did the two of them begin to answer the questions.
Following which, the entire hall quieted down as everyone tried their best to answer the questions.
The questions at the beginning were all very easy, so the ten of them had almost the same speed to solve them.
After he finished more than thirty questions, the questions started to become difficult. After that, other than Dong Le and Luo Zhenxiang, the others started to slow down.
Lin Long also slowed down. It was not because he was troubled by these questions, but because he was not like Dong Le and Luo Zhenxiang who were racking their brains for answers.
After a period of time, other than Lin Long, the other people had a greater difference in strength compared to Dong Le and Luo Zhenxiang. Of course, Dong Le and the other two were still fighting to the point where they were unable to be separated.
No way, how could that kid be so strong? At this time, the other few people were all surprised in their hearts.
No wonder they were shocked, it was because Lin Long was simply too young. He was so young, yet his knowledge and knowledge in Rune wood man s was actually stronger than them, who had immersed themselves in Rune wood man s for who knows how many years.
Both Dong Le and Luo Zhenxiang had not noticed this point, because from the beginning till now, their attention had always been on the other party, and did not notice anyone else at all.
The only reason they were acting this way was because they no longer held anyone else in their eyes. They felt that the only people that could threaten them were each other.
After a period of time, one of them finally walked in front, and the one walking in front was Luo Zhenxiang.
He who had gathered knowledge from both families seemed to be a little stronger than Dong Le.
"Dong Le, this is just the beginning. As time passes, the distance between you and I will grow larger and larger, and in the end, you will definitely lose to me." Luo Zhenxiang laughed proudly.
After saying this, he turned his gaze to the others to see how they were doing.
When he shifted his gaze over, his face immediately revealed a surprised expression because there was someone following closely behind them.
When he looked at that person's face again, the surprised expression on his face became even more pronounced, because that person was actually that youth from before.
"Who the hell are you to have such powerful strength?" Looking at Lin Long, Luo Zhenxiang could not help but exclaim.
Hearing him say that, Dong Le subconsciously turned his head, and when he turned his head, he was as surprised as Luo Zhenxiang was.
"How could you follow so closely?" Dong Le could not help but ask.
"Naturally, it's because of strength." Lin Long smiled lightly.
"Are you the absolute genius from the Tianfeng Sect?" Luo Zhenxiang shouted as soon as he thought of something.
The Heavenly Wind Sect was another sect in the Wu that was on par with them in terms of the knowledge of Rune wood man.
They heard that there was an extremely talented young man in the Tianfeng Sect. That young man was many times stronger than his peers. It was said that in a few more years, he would be able to catch up to the Tianfeng Sect's Sect Leader.
Because that young man was very mysterious, even the disciples of the Heaven Wind Sect did not know what he looked like, thus, Luo Zhenxiang guessed that Lin Long was that young man.
"Probably." Dong Le also said.
"However, no matter how much of a genius he is, his current strength is inferior to ours." Luo Zhenxiang said.
"Of course." Dong Le nodded.
They all secretly heaved a sigh of relief as they thought that Lin Long was that youth.
While the two of them were conversing, Lin Long, who was behind them, finished answering another question.
Seeing Lin Long like this, how could the two dare delay any further, they focused their attention back on the wooden board.
After a period of time, Luo Zhenxiang had actually pulled away from Dong Le with five questions, and had spent a lot of time on each question. Now that he had actually gotten to five questions, it was no longer possible for Dong Le to catch up to Luo Zhenxiang.
He never thought that Luo Zhenxiang would actually have such a transformation, Dong Le shook his head helplessly.
And it was also at this time, that he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the side. Turning his head to look, he realised that Lin Long had done the same number of questions as him.
"How is this possible!"
Looking at Lin Long, Dong Le could not help but open his eyes wide and say.
He, who had been wholeheartedly pursuing Luo Zhenxiang just now, didn't pay attention to Lin Long at all. Who would have thought that Lin Long would actually catch up to him at this moment?
From the looks of it, isn't this kid going to surpass me soon? Dong Le's face could not help but twitch.
Feeling extremely threatened, he immediately buried his head back into answering the questions.
He knew that he was no longer able to catch up with Luo Zhenxiang, but if he was surpassed by a brat, how would he, the Sect Leader of the Wood Sect, have any face in front of these disciples.
Therefore, he continued to work hard on the questions.1
Only, after a while, he had completely lost hope, because before he could even think of what to do, Lin Long, who was by his side, had already done this question and walked forward.
"No way, this kid really surpassed me!" Seeing that, Dong Le could not help but be dumbstruck.
"Heavens, he actually surpassed Sect Leader Dong!"
At this time, the others had their eyes wide open. Previously, they thought that Lin Long wouldn't be able to keep up with them for too long, and would inevitably fall behind at a later time, but who would have thought that he would overtake Dong Le so quickly.
Hearing the voices behind him, Luo Zhenxiang subconsciously turned his head around. Once he saw that Lin Long actually surpassed Dong Le, he naturally opened his eyes wide once again.
No, he had to speed up! A sense of danger inexplicably rose in Luo Zhenxiang's heart.
With this thought in mind, he racked his brains to think of a solution to the problem. Previously, he had already started to relax a little because he had overtaken Dong Le, but now that Lin Long had actually surpassed him, he didn't dare be careless.
After a while, Luo Zhenxiang's speed had directly slowed down by half.
The reason was simple. The difficulty level of the questions he was working on now was several times higher than before.
After spending so much time, Luo Zhenxiang, who had racked his brains, finally solved this problem.
This question was too difficult, and with the ability of the youth behind him, he would definitely not be able to solve it. At that time, he would be able to hold all the treasures in this secret realm for himself, Luo Zhenxiang thought to himself.
Because of this "intuition", he slightly relaxed.
After some time, Lin Long completed the difficult problem that Luo Zhenxiang had thought he would be facing. At this time, Luo Zhenxiang, who was feeling a little tired, simply stopped and looked at him.
Right now, he was still a few questions ahead of Lin Long, adding on to that, he felt that this question would definitely make it difficult for Lin Long, so he wasn't worried at all.
"Kid, I don't believe that you can figure it out." Luo Zhenxiang said coldly.
Seeing Luo Zhenxiang like this, the others naturally understood that Lin Long's current question must be very difficult.
Looks like this brat is about to lose. Seeing this point, everyone had this thought in their hearts.
But, after a while, all of them opened their eyes wide, because Lin Long had answered the question.
What surprised Luo Zhenxiang the most was that his speed was actually similar to the previous question.
This was a question that was several times more difficult. How could he use the same amount of time? Luo Zhenxiang exclaimed in his heart.
Could it be that these questions were not difficult for him at all? He was suddenly worried.
No, I overthought it, how could it not be difficult? Luo Zhenxiang quickly rejected the thought.
The next question was getting harder and harder to answer. There would always be a time when he would be stuck!
With this thought, he immediately began to answer the questions again.
