Zhou Jizhou returned to the disciple courtyard and went into his room to practice. He wanted to work hard to improve his cultivation so that he could defeat Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan in the next disciple competition.
Not long after entering the state of cultivation, Zhou Jizhou suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. Before he could figure out what was going on, the pain in his chest became more and more severe.
He quickly took out the healing pill and swallowed it, but the healing pill was of no use at all.
Zhou Jizhou wanted to stand up in pain and call for help, but after taking two steps, he fell to the ground. His whole body began to twitch constantly, and the pain seemed to tear him apart.
Time passed bit by bit. Zhou Jizhou was already exhausted from the excruciating pain. He felt his body getting colder and colder, and breathing gradually became more difficult. His life seemed to be slipping away bit by bit. Am I going to die?
He thought carefully about why he had become like this. The only people he had contact with were Su Jinyue and Wang Jin. Who among them had harmed him?
His body grew colder and colder, and Zhou Jizhou finally closed his eyes unwillingly. The moment he closed his eyes, he finally understood: the one who had harmed him was Wang Jin. Wang Jin had given him the Masui Powder, and he certainly wouldn't leave any evidence against him. So the best way was to get rid of him. He could only blame himself for being so stupid!
The night passed in a flash, and the sunlight shone through the clouds, illuminating the entire earth.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan walked out of the room. Today was the day they were going to report to the formation, and they would never come back here again.
Not far away, a group of disciples were gathered together discussing.
Seeing Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan coming over, a disciple asked, "Senior Brother Zhan, Senior Sister Su, do you know about Senior Brother Zhou Jizhou?"
"What's going on?" Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan asked, pretending not to understand. If they were right, Zhou Jizhou must have died of poisoning. By the end of yesterday's match, the poison had already invaded his dantian.
"He was found dead in the room. Elder Mo and the deacon are investigating now."
"I heard he died of poisoning. I don't know who is so cruel."
"Brother Zhan, Sister Su, let's go take a look." Ling Xiaoqiu looked at Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan and said. She was very curious about who had poisoned Zhou Jizhou to death.
Su Jinyue shook her head and said, "We still have to report to the Formation Peak." What's the point of seeing people dead? But Wang Jin will always be a nuisance if he stays alive.
"I guess I forgot a little, I also have to report to the Immortal Talisman Pavilion." Ling Xiaoqiu said with a smile. She had always been particularly interested in making talismans, so this time she chose the Immortal Talisman Pavilion.
"Where's Wu Zheng?" Su Jinyue asked. Wu Zheng chose the Weapon Refining Pavilion this time.
"I don't know either. I haven't seen him since early this morning. I wonder if he overslept. I'll go check it out." Ling Xiaoqiu said as she walked towards Wu Zheng's room.
"Senior Brother Wu went out for a run last night. He said he was so happy that he couldn't sleep." said the disciple who lived in the same room with Wu Zheng.
Su Jinyue and the other two couldn't help but smile.
At this time, Wu Zheng walked into the disciple courtyard with a happy face. Seeing Su Jinyue and the other two, he walked up quickly and said, "I heard that Zhou Jizhou had died when I came back just now."
"We know that you went out for a run last night. Why did you come back just now?" Ling Xiaoqiu asked with a smile.
Wu Zheng scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I got lost in the woods and didn't find the way until daybreak." He was so happy to be able to enter the Equipment Refining Pavilion this time. He couldn't sleep last night because he tossed and turned and couldn't concentrate on his cultivation, so he decided to go out for a run. Unexpectedly, he got lost while running.
"We are going to report now. Do you want to go with us?" Su Jinyue asked with a smile.
"Okay." Wu Zheng nodded vigorously. He had been looking forward to the daybreak since last night so that he could report to the Equipment Refining Pavilion earlier.
Under the envious gazes of the disciples, the four of them walked out of the disciple courtyard and headed towards the mountain of their choice.
Gu Potian, the master of the Formation Peak, heard the news of Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan's arrival, and said to the disciples who came to report: "Let them in." He had already seen their competition through the formation screen, and they did perform very well. He just didn't know how talented they were in setting up formations?
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan walked into the main hall and bowed to Gu Potian, "Greetings, Master Gu."
Gu Potian nodded and said, "You need to complete an assessment before entering the Formation Peak. Only if you pass it, I will accept you as my true disciples."
"Okay." Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan nodded. They didn't care whether he was a true disciple or not, but since Gu Potian said so, they couldn't refuse.
Gu Potian waved his hand, and as two formation flags fell, two identical formations activated simultaneously. This was a third-level formation he had set up before. Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan had previously mentioned that they were second-level immortal formation masters, and they wondered if they could deduce this formation and escape it.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan immediately recognized that this was a third-level immortal formation. With their current formation skills, breaking it would be easy. However, they had previously stated that they were only second-level immortal formation masters, so they certainly couldn't break the formation in one go.
The two of them sat down in the formation, closed their eyes and pretended to deduce the formation.
Gu Potian curled his lips slightly, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, "I'll give you three days. If you exceed the time limit, you will be considered a failure."
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan pretended not to hear anything, and focused their attention on deducing the formation in front of them. In fact, sometimes pretending can be a painful thing.
Gu Potian stood up and walked out of the hall, and said to the two disciples guarding the door: "If there is any situation, report to me at any time." He hoped that Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan would not let him down.
After Gu Potian left, Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan opened their eyes, smiled at each other, and chatted using voice transmission.
"When is the best time for us to break this formation?" Su Jinyue said with a smile. She was afraid that it would scare Gu Potian if it was too early.
"When the time is almost up," Zhan Yihan said. It would seem a bit fake if it was too early, so he thought it would be more appropriate to do it when the time was almost up.
"Well, then you're ahead of me." Su Jinyue said with a smile. Of course, it was impossible for the two of them to finish together.
"Okay." Zhan Yihan nodded with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness and doting as he looked at Su Jinyue.
Time passed slowly, and soon a day was over.
Gu Potian smiled when he saw no disciples reporting. This was within his expectations. Deducing formations was no easy task; the longest he'd ever spent deducing a single formation was a full six months. He felt that Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue were both excellent, but the better they were, the more they needed to be tested; that was how they would grow.
