Chapter 168



The fifty-yearly Array Tower Trial Tournament has officially begun!

This trial consists of three rounds.

The first round tests the basic knowledge of formations. Within one stick of incense, contestants must successfully answer 100 questions about formations. Those who answer incorrectly or exceed the time limit will be eliminated.

The second round of formation confrontation is participated by the monks who won the first round. They draw lots to get opponents. They set up formations for each other and let the other party crack them. The loser is eliminated and the winner enters the next round of drawing lots until the top ten winners are selected.

In the third round, the top ten monks from the second round will enter the Formation Tower to undergo a more advanced trial.

Every day, array mages were eliminated, and they left in despair.

There are those who fail, and naturally there are also winners who step on the losers to climb up.

Qiao Shiyu successfully entered the second round of confrontation, but to her surprise, she did not see Xiao Xiao.

Wouldn't he be eliminated in the first round?

"So who did you pick?" Yeying asked.

"It's She Miao, an inner disciple of Xuanzhen Pavilion." Qiao Shiyu came back to her senses and showed the lot she drew to Ye Ying.

She Miao?

Ye Ying frowned, this person was quite tricky, he was said to be a formation genius of this generation in Xuanzhen Pavilion.

Can Junior Sister Qiao win?

Ye Ying made a decision in his mind. He decided that on the day of the competition, he would send someone to lure She Miao out of the city and bury him temporarily. He would release him after Junior Sister Qiao won.

"It's so strange. I didn't see Junior Sister 께 at all. Did you see her?" Qiao Shiyu asked Ye Ying.

Ye Ying shook his head, "I didn't see her either."

"Junior sister was eliminated so quickly. I wanted to compete with her, but it seems that it will not be possible." Qiao Shiyu sighed, her words full of regret.

She also wanted to defeat her fair and square in public.

She told the world that her poetry was better than Xiao Xiao's.

Now Xiao Xiao was so unsuccessful that he was eliminated in the first round.

She felt a little regretful, but also a hidden happiness.

Junior Sister 께 is far inferior to her in terms of formation.

"Her skills are not as good as others, so there is nothing we can do about her being eliminated. Junior Sister Qiao, you should prepare well and strive to get a stunning result in the Formation Tower trial. I believe that the world will understand that you are more suitable to be the elder of Mingxin Sect than her." Ye Ying comforted.

These words hit the mark exactly what Qiao Shiyu had in mind.

"We will definitely go all out to promote the Mingxin Sect's reputation."

Due to She Miao's absence, Qiao Shiyu successfully completed the selection of twenty to ten.

Qiao Shiyu was also the only disciple from a non-array sect to make the top ten, extremely eye-catching.

"Who is she? Why does she look so unfamiliar? I don't think I've ever heard of such a person before."

"He seems to be a disciple of Mingxin Sect."

"The Mingxin Sect again? Are the disciples of the Mingxin Sect so powerful?"

"It looks like this trial is going to be fun."

There were whispers coming from all around, and Qiao Shiyu felt somewhat pleased when she heard them.

This feeling of pride came to an abrupt end when he saw Xiao Xiao in the third round.

How is that possible?

Xiao Xiao was clearly eliminated, why is he here?

She knew it was Lay Buddhist Ming 꿂. It must be Lay Buddhist Ming 꿂 who opened a back door for Junior Sister 께.

This is too unfair. It is unfair to these monks who have worked so hard to pass the test and defeat the generals.

Qiao Shiyu felt that she must defend the fairness of other monks.

"Junior sister, it is immoral for you to ask Master Ming to help you get in through the back door. Have you ever thought about the monks who have worked hard from the first round to the third round?"

The monk who knew the inside story looked at Qiao Shiyu with surprise.

She didn't even know?

Aren't they from the same school?

Why can't we talk behind closed doors? Why are you trying to ruin your own junior sister's show in public?

Are they taking revenge?

Xiao Xiao was already used to the occasional slander of the heroine. "You are here by your own strength. I don't know where you got the illusion from, that you think that Master Ming has such great power that he can interfere in the trial of the Formation Tower and open a backdoor for you?"

Qiao Shiyu felt that Xiao Xiao had gotten the upper hand but was afraid to admit it, so she spoke even more vigorously.

"I didn't see you in the second round of the competition. You didn't even participate. Now you are standing here again. If not through the backdoor, what else could it be?"

As for who left, it goes without saying.

Who would believe that it is explained that lay Buddhists cannot interfere in the trials of the Formation Dharma Pagoda?

When the monk who failed the election heard Qiao Shiyu say this, he immediately felt that it was unfair.

If Xuanzhen Pavilion can let others use the back door, why can't it let yourself use it?

You have to go on your own.

"Xuanzhen Pavilion must give us an explanation!"

"That's right, why give it to her and not to us?"

"We must also give you a place!"

They don't care what the facts are, whether she used a backdoor or not.

Their purpose is to take advantage of the situation, and if they can profit from it, that would be great.

Even if they didn't make a profit, they didn't lose anything either.

Let's just have some fun together.

The people around them started to make a commotion, and it was so loud that Xuanzhen Pavilion had to come out to explain.

Seeing that everyone else was on her side, Qiao Shiyu straightened her back even more. "Junior Sister Xiao, did you hear the voices of those monks behind you? They were shouting in anger about being treated unfairly."

"It's normal to feel unfair. You're angry because you're not the beneficiary." Xiao Xiao said calmly, "As for whether it's fair or not, it's not up to you to say. It's up to Xuanzhen Pavilion to say it. You have a clear conscience."

Xiao Xiao looked down upon Qiao Shiyu's double-faced behavior.

Xiao Xiao believed that it was Qiao Shiyu who got in through the back door. She would never say it was unfair. Instead, she would say it was because of her friend's ability.

However, she was not panicking, as she was promoted directly based on her own strength.

Soon the elders of Xuanzhen Pavilion came out to explain.

"No, it's unfair. Xuanzhen Pavilion adheres to the principles of fairness, justice and openness. Elder Xiao of Mingxin Sect passed the trial path in front of the Formation Tower, so she and her companions were able to advance directly to the third round. The person who said it can testify.

If you feel unconvinced, you can go to that trial road and take a look. If you can pass it, you can directly advance to the next level."

When these words came out, everyone shook their heads.

What a pervert!

That trial path was notoriously difficult to walk, and those who could make a complete breakthrough in each session were basically the top three.

No one is talking here.

"Xuanzhen Pavilion has always upheld the principle of fairness and justice. We do not want this kind of indiscriminate questioning of Xuanzhen Pavilion's fairness to happen again."

This was simply pointing a finger at Qiao Shiyu and scolding her for her behavior.

Qiao Shiyu's face suddenly turned red, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

At the same time, she felt a little resentful in her heart. Why didn't Xiao Xiao explain it directly, making her embarrassed now.

She must have done it on purpose!

However, this is not the end, the elder has more to say.

"In order to prevent this kind of behavior from happening again, the monks who have been promoted this time will be excused. Other monks who have questioned the fairness of the Xuanzhen Pavilion without reason will not be able to participate in the trial of the Formation Tower for two hundred years. The monk who just questioned it has been recorded in the Image Stone."

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

How can those monks who want to take advantage of the situation be people of noble character?

The reason they spoke out before was to gain an advantage.

Now that they have failed to gain anything but have lost the rice, they will not reflect on whether their previous behavior was appropriate, but will resent others.

They didn't dare to complain openly about Xuanzhen Pavilion, as they were afraid that they would never be able to come for trials again.

But there is nothing wrong with Qiao Shiyu!

How could they be punished if it wasn't her?

"Bah, he looks like a decent person, but he actually has such evil intentions and is deliberately misleading us."

"They look so alike, could they be sisters? I've never seen anyone treat their sisters like this before."

"They are not biological sisters, but sisters from the same school. This woman is really vicious. Look, she just can't stand seeing her junior sister doing well. Otherwise, why didn't she ask privately, but asked in public? She just wants to embarrass her junior sister."

"What a wicked person."

"What bad luck! I must have been unlucky to have met this scorpion woman."

"What a bitch! Now she's acting so pitiful. Who are you trying to show off to? I really want to beat her up."

Qiao Shiyu had never been scolded like this before, and her eyes quickly filled with tears.

She felt regretful, aggrieved, resentful, and a little scared.

Why did those people scold her like that?

She looked around, trying to find Ye Ying, hoping that he would help her out and explain to others that she was not who they said she was.

But Yeying didn't dare to step forward at this time.

The plan was at a critical moment, and if he stepped forward at this moment, it would ruin the Lord's plan.

He would remember the faces of those who dared to insult Brother Qiao Shiyu. When this incident was over, he would cut off their heads as atonement for Qiao Shiyu's crime.
