This man was none other than the Yue Zuoran from the Heaven's Peak Guild!
Even though there were close to a thousand guilds participating in the Challenge Competition, there were only five core bases. The number of guilds with the ability to fight for the core stronghold could be counted on one hand. There were definitely no more than ten.
Even if you are the first to take down the core stronghold, as long as the number of guild members is insufficient and your cultivation is insufficient, you will not be able to activate the formation patterns of the core stronghold, so naturally, you will not be able to unleash its full power. Also, with the usage of the formation, as long as you have enough Spiritual Strength s, you will not be able to use it immediately.
As a super seeded guild, the Tian Yue guild had an absolute advantage, and could snatch the core foothold without anyone being able to stop them.
This was not only because of the 500-strong prodigies on the path of the halberd, but also because of the presence of a God like Yue Chaoran, who was at the top of the guild.
After all, Yue Chaoran was ranked within the top 50 in the entire school's glorious rankings!
What sort of concept was this?
Adding the new disciples and older students together, there was nearly a million people in Shining Edge Academy!
Before, Super Genius like Lu Jianyou, who had comprehended Sword Truth at the age of thirty and created his own sword technique, was only ranked amongst the thousands. But now, Yue Chaoran was actually ranked in the top fifty! He was an old student who had come to the Shining Edge Academy five years ago. Back then, during the race for the speed test, he had obtained an extremely good ranking and, along with the establishment of the guild, he had gained an advantage step by step in order to earn Glory points. In the end, he had even obtained the right to stay in a luxurious seven star dorm.
This meant that Yue Chaoran could have an even more superior environment to train in, and could even be said to have a rich spiritual energy that even grand maths wouldn't be able to enjoy. This meant that Yue Chaoran could have an even more superior environment to train in, and could even have a private tutor service that was free of charge.
It could be said that the gap between Yue Chaoran, who was already an outstanding genius, and those geniuses who were only a hair's breadth away from him, was growing larger and larger!
It was because of this that in these five years, Yue Chaoran went from being ranked in the top 100 rankings to being ranked in the 50th. He knew clearly that in the top 10, no matter if it was an older student or a newcomer, Demonic Genius would be ranked in the top 10. No matter who challenged him, their rankings would be unshakable.
However, this trip to the Two Elements World was a huge opportunity. If he could succeed, he could make another breakthrough. The higher his rank was, the more generous treatment he would receive.
One day in the future, he would be able to stand at a high place and view the small mountains.
This was the ambition of a dark horse like Yue Chaoran, who had experienced five years of baptism.
There was a total of 100,000 names on the leaderboard, there was no way anyone wouldn't want to jump up, and nearing the Summit, the rankings were being crazily reshuffled every day. It was unknown how many dark horses were accumulating their energy and moving towards the top 1,000, top 100, or even the top 50!
No one would know what would happen if a rising star like Yue Chao Ran managed to compete with the tens of thousands of geniuses in the Great Games!
… ….
Boom!
The huge explosion shook everyone's eardrums. It was like lightning striking down from the cloudy sky, causing the ground to be filled with thunder. The explosion caused the mountainside to be smashed into pieces, and even the fragments flew into the sky.
"Cough, cough." Feng Wu Ying and the rest were pushed back by the violent winds. In the process, Feng Wu Ying did not forget to hug Chang Yue Xin with one hand, and with the other, he grabbed Fu Chen's arm and threw him backwards.
Although Feng Shao's injuries were not light at the moment, this was something he could not help but feel instinctively.
As for the stone spirit, its skin was thick and rough, so it should be fine.
Chang Yuexin's expression changed slightly. Although she was an expert of the eighth level of Star Swallowing Stage and had not been attacked by Lang Teng from the Wolf King's Guild, she did not even lose her hair due to Feng Wuying's actions.
Chang Yuexin's expression changed slightly as she felt the scorching heat in his arms. If it were not for Feng Wuying blocking her front, she would have twisted his arm into a fried dough twist. Seeing that Feng Wuying had no intention of stopping, her anger reached its peak in the next second.
"What is that thing!"
Feng Wuying's eyes widened as he looked towards the snowy battlefield in the distance. He, who was usually indifferent, was actually shocked. He tightened his grip on Chang Yuexin's slim waist that she had worked so hard to maintain and said, "Quickly, look."
Chang Yue Xin's face turned cold. When she turned her head to look at the black figure that was slowly rising up, she was stunned.
Not only her, but even Fu Chen and the stone spirit all felt shocked at the same time!
They clearly saw that in the distant battlefield, where Ming Yu was, a huge black formation with a circumference of thirty meters was laid out on the ground. A huge black shadow rose from the formation to the ground, reaching a height of eighty meters.
It was called an illusory image, but as the smoke slowly dispersed and became clearer, it actually didn't seem like an illusory image at all. On the contrary, it looked like real steel and iron, a giant skeleton with a human upper body! The skull had an expressionless face and hollow eyes. It released a terrifying pressure that actually caused the surrounding air to tremble, causing the image to become slightly blurry.1
Under its head was a spine filled with thorns like a dark dragon. Around the spine, a pure black rib cage that was as hard as steel rose. Ming Yu, who was standing straight in the middle, was forcibly protected in the middle!
Earlier, Lang Teng's fatal blow landed on Ming Yu's steel ribs, but it did not cause any damage to him.
Lang Teng retreated, along with the one hundred and thirty laughing members of the Wolf Tribe behind him. He was equally shocked and uncertain.
Looking at the lines spreading on the ground, everyone was almost certain that this was definitely not a martial skill, but the power of an array formation!
With Ming Yu's current strength, he would definitely not be able to release so many Stellar Genuine Qi s at once. And the use of Array Pattern Bead s just so happened to be that it could absorb a sufficient amount of Stellar Genuine Qi s at once. Furthermore, using an exquisite incantation combined with the seal, it could draw the great Dao of heaven and earth behind the formation patterns.
"I didn't expect you to have such a defensive skill …" Lang Teng narrowed his eyes, and his expression suddenly changed halfway through his words, "…" "What!?"
Ming Yu slowly raised his head to look at himself. The Invisible Cold Fire's body, which had been silent for a while, surged out from the 25,000 Star Aperture's body with a loud rumble. As if it had found its home, a "hualala" sound rang out as it surged into the giant skeleton that was eighty meters tall.
Rumble …
The giant skull nodded as if it was psychic. Its empty eye sockets wrapped in the black flames seemed to possess an expression of its own as it stared at Lang Teng, who was lying on the ground.
At the same time, Ming Yu's wrist trembled. At the moment the Embers Cold Fire fell into contact with the Scale Bone Sword, the gigantic bones in the right arm of the skeleton above him also slowly rose up. With his five fingers clenched in the void, black flames slowly condensed into a slender fire sword.
Grade three high-grade formation pattern top quality: Dark Skeleton Heavy Armor! Attack!
Dark Skeleton Heavy Armor was the rune that Hei Ji taught Ming Yu before she left.
More and more memories came back to her, and this Dark Skeleton Heavy Armor was one of them. Previously, when Hei Ji and Bai Ling were fighting on the arena, Hei Ji had used the incomplete Dark Skeleton Heavy Armor, but after a few days, Hei Ji had relied on more precise memories to complete the Dark Skeleton Heavy Armor.
She had already drawn the array patterns first and kept it in the Array Pattern Bead, and then handed it to Ming Yu to use.
After all, these were high-grade third-grade runes, and top grade runes. For Ming Yu, who hadn't touched a rune for a long time, it was naturally impossible for him to draw this rune for three days. However, if you were to say that he had comprehended it within three days, he could still try it out.
It was because of Ming Yu that he was able to completely train it, but, the moment before he entered the foreign world, Ming Yu did not have full confidence that he could activate the high grade third-level array patterns. After all, the technique was too complicated, even if Ming Yu's Spiritual Strength was outstanding, it would still be difficult to comprehend it quickly.
But!
In the moment of life and death, Ming Yu formed a seal with one hand and chanted an incantation in one go. The instant the charms were pressed down onto the ground, a black storm arose and the dark skeleton was finally formed. It is unknown if it was born from the fusion of yin and yang, but it was actually able to fuse into the Dark Soldier Armor.
Not only could he defend, he could also attack.
This was probably an advantage that belonged solely to Ming Yu. After all, not all types of energy could be infused into martial skills or even array patterns, but the Amethyst Cold Fire could fuse with everything.
Not to mention this Ember Cold Fire, just in these past three days, its comprehension ability had already ranked among the top geniuses in Shining Edge Academy.
"As expected, there are some people backing him up."
Lang Teng snorted coldly and gradually recovered from his surprise. Ming Yu did have some family background and could even obtain high-grade third-grade runes of this quality, but Lang Teng had asked about Ming Yu before, and he knew that Ming Yu had never used this rune before. In other words, it was very possible that Ming Yu was using it today.
The fifth level of Star Swallowing Stage, using a high-grade third-grade pattern array. Haha, even if you studied for half a year and made a gamble for it, you would still not be able to see it through. Your family background and backing will never be able to match up to your arrogance!
Lang Teng once again slowly lifted the Blood Moon Scythe in his right hand, "Remember, the only thing that can let you grow up is yourself. You are just a nameless rat."
By the time he said those last words, Lang Teng's figure had already disappeared from where he stood!
