Yang Jian paused for a moment, then said:

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of my Uncle-Master Shen Gongbao."

Jiang Ziya frowned, but still sighed slightly:

"Your Uncle Shen does indeed have some talent in formations. It's a pity that he's no longer with our Chan Sect. Otherwise, I could have another person to spar with in the art of formations."

Thinking back to the array formation skills that Shen Gongbao had occasionally revealed, Jiang Ziya finally nodded:

“Shen Gongbao’s array formations absorbed the essence of the Jiejiao’s array formations. Although they are not as upright as my Chanjiao’s array formations, their power is indeed remarkable. No wonder you, my junior brother Yang Jian, can still remember them.”

Shen Gongbao's skill in formations had been personally verified by many formation masters of the Jie Sect, and Jiang Ziya could not deny it.

However, Jiang Ziya's lack of denial does not mean that the others present also agree.

Deng Hua, standing to the side, spoke first:

"I remember that Shen Gongbao learned his formation techniques from the Ten Heavenly Kings of the Jie Sect, right? Ten mere outer disciples of the Jie Sect, their cultivation level is only at the Xuanxian level. No matter how high their formation techniques are, how high can they be?"

"The level of skill is determined by appearance. You can imagine the level of Shen Gongbao's formation skills after being taught by ten people like this."

"As for their constant boasting about Shen Gongbao's superb formation skills, that's entirely for ulterior motives."

"They do this to constantly tell the world that the highest level of formations in the entire prehistoric land is still their Jie Sect. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a direct descendant of the Chan Sect's saint who would disregard his status to seek out a few outer disciples of their Jie Sect to learn their skills."

"The claim that Shen Gongbao's array formation skills are superb is entirely fabricated by the disciples of the Jie Sect. If Shen Gongbao's array formation skills were truly as formidable as they claim, why has he never demonstrated his true array formation prowess in front of everyone all these years?"

"If you ask me, Shen Gongbao is the greatest sinner of our Chan Sect."

"Because of him, our Chan Sect not only bears the stigma that our formations are inferior to those of the Jie Sect, but also the infamy that we are no better than teachers of disciples."

"Shen Gongbao deserves to die!"
