Zhang Xing was initially in a good mood, but who knew where this sh * t-stirring stick popped out from? Furthermore, it was some lousy patrol inspector.
"Zhang Xing, come, let me introduce you. This is..."
Before Bond could finish his words, Zhang Xing interrupted him.
"Patrol Inspector Tonnies, hurry up with your inspection. I'm busy!"
Ah!
The crowd was taken aback. Zhang shi really dared to say that he didn't know how formidable a patrol inspector was!
Bond hurriedly shot glances at Zhang Xing, but Zhang Xing ignored him.
Tonnies sneered, "Zhang shi, you sure are a busy man at such a young age!
You probably aren't aware of the rules of the Formation Master Guild... "
"I don't care what rules you have. I'm not a member of your Formation Master Guild."
Zhang Xing interrupted Tonnies without any hesitation.
Ga!
The entire crowd fell silent. Zhang shi, you aren't giving me any face at all!
Tonnies flew into a rage. Which formation master would dare to speak to him in such a manner?
However, he knew that Zhang Xing wasn't wrong.
Just because you passed the examination didn't mean that you were an official member of the guild. There were conditions to joining the guild.
Tonnies couldn't care less about Zhang Xing at the moment.
However, he could pose some difficult questions to lower Zhang Xing's rank to a grade-2 or grade-1 formation master.
"Even though you aren't a member of our guild, you still have to abide by the rules of the Formation Master Guild."
"I heard that you are skilled in deciphering formations. Let me set up a simple grade-3 formation for you. As long as you can decipher it within ten minutes, you'll be considered a grade-3 formation master, and you'll be allowed to wear the emblem."
After which, Tonnies took out a bamboo scroll that exuded an ancient aura.
"This is a simple three-linked formation. There's a Trapping Formation, an Illusory Formation, and a Killing Formation inside."
"Zhang shi, please!"
Tonnies tossed the bamboo scroll in his hand over.
Forty-nine sections of bamboo flew out from the bamboo scroll, and all kinds of bizarre diagrams were inscribed on them.
Boom!
Zhang Xing was trapped in the formation.
Bond's eyelids twitched, and he took two steps back.
This was a complete ancient formation! It was a finished product, and it could be used right away.
Damn, this Patrol Inspector is too vicious!
He was confident in Zhang Xing, but he was even more confident in this ancient formation.
Although it was only a Grade 3 array formation, its true power was already comparable to a peak Grade 4 array formation.
All of the formation masters present were stunned. The Patrol Inspector was too careless! He said that he wanted Zhang shi to break the formation, but why did he end up trapping Zhang shi instead?
Tonnies harrumphed coldly in his heart. These people from the countryside really don't know the rules. Why aren't they offering the ancient formation to me?
Even if that brat could last for ten minutes, he would be demoted to Level 2.
Within the area under his jurisdiction, those ignorant Level 3 Array Masters had all been taught a lesson by this ancient array. In the end, they had all been forced out in a sorry state, but they still had to privately give away large amounts of wealth.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to continue taking the second rank array formation master exam.
"You Array Masters, do you really think that you have the corresponding strength after breaking a few simple Array Formations?"
"No, that's not it. That only means that you've just entered the sect. Back then, when the elders of the Main Guild tested me, they used this formation."
"I only used eight minutes to crack it!"
"That Zhang shi is young and arrogant. Even if I give him an hour, he won't be able to break it. This time, I'll give him …"
But before Tonnies could finish his words, a deafening explosion sounded behind him.
Turning around, he was stunned.
Following which, his body began trembling. My ancient formation!
All of the forty-nine sections of bamboo beside Zhang Xing had shattered, and he was still stomping on them forcefully.
"What formation are you talking about? I shattered it with a single kick!"
"To use such a simple formation to test me, you must be looking down on me!"
"Shatter all of them so that I don't embarrass myself in the future!"
Hearing those words, Tonnies' vision darkened, and he collapsed to the ground. White foam spewed from his mouth, and his illness acted up.
