After the orange light faded, what appeared in front of Liu Wen was a glass walkway.

The walkway was covered by a faint orange light, and the true appearance of the material could not be seen.

One end of the walkway was connected to the peak of a mountain, and the other end was hidden in the clouds.

Liu Wen leaned down and gently pressed his hand to the start of the walkway.

This was a very gentle material. Looking down through the faint orange light, one could see that there were fine array patterns engraved on the glass.

These array runes looked very subtle and small, making it easy for people to let down their guard. However, Liu Wen’s forged eyes could magnify these details.

After enlarging the array patterns below, one could clearly see that every array pattern was woven with countless curves. Spiritual energy gathered and flowed in an orderly manner.

“Seven Star Glazed Boardwalk.”

Liu Wen stood up silently and looked at the path of light in front of him.

This walkway used the Big Dipper as a model. It looked very simple, but it was actually a very complicated maze.

What this maze tested was the observation ability of every array master. There were a total of seven square glass pieces. Each of them was not big and was only ten feet square. However, each piece was in its own sect and was an independent array formation.

Every place was a sealed array formation space. He had to find it in the previous array formation space. Only when he reached that intersection could he reach the next space. This way, he could reach the end after seven times.

“This is the third level, but it’s already so difficult.”

Liu Wen returned to Ping City confidently. He thought that he would definitely obtain a good result in this competition, but he was unexpectedly taken down a notch.

However, time was limited now. He had to pass this place as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone else completed the mission first, he would probably not be able to get a good ranking.

He stepped on the first tablet.

The scene in front of him flashed. He was suddenly in a primitive forest. A beam of light landed on him. Around him were nineteen towering ancient trees. They formed a circle and surrounded Liu Wen in the middle.

Every ancient tree was engraved with dense patterns, like the tracks of ants crawling out. All the patterns were covered in thick tree trunks.

Looking around, even these array formations were enough to make people dizzy. If not for the fact that someone with two years of attainments in array formations had come in, they would probably not know what they were looking at and would think that they were all the same.

However, the patterns on these nineteen ancient trees were completely different.

Moreover, those who arrived here only had one chance to choose. As long as they made the wrong choice, they would be immediately eliminated. Only by making the right choice would they be able to successfully head to the next array formation.

The basis for his choice was under his feet. The array patterns on the ten feet square space were the only way out. The only way is the one with the same as the array pattern.

Liu Wen slowly sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

At this moment, many transparent shadows that seemed to have called out from his body rushed out one by one and arrived in front of the nineteen ancient trees.

These shadows also imitated Liu Wen and sat cross-legged in front of the tree, silently calculating in their hearts.

The seconds ticked by.

Suddenly, a small transparent person beside Liu Wen shone with golden light.

The transparent figure’s body was connected to the array patterns on the ancient tree in front of him, faintly reflecting each other.

Liu Wen suddenly opened his eyes. The other little figures had all returned to his body. Without hesitation, he crawled into the ancient tree that had been chosen.

The damp and rotten smell of the primitive forest disappeared. A very dry sandstorm blew into Liu Wen’s nostrils. The sand was very strong and rustled against his skin.

This was a vast desert. It was so flat that it reached the horizon. There was not even any protruding area.

In the northern sky, a brilliant star shone.

The star landed a beam of light at the other end of the desert, as if it was vaguely guiding Liu Wen.

That was Liu Wen’s destination this time. As long as he could reach there successfully, he would pass this round.

But it wasn’t as easy as he thought.

A huge array formation that was ten thousand feet long and wide appeared in the sky. After flickering twice, it smashed into the ground.

The array diagram was deeply embedded in the desert and disappeared. No one knew how deep it was.

There were hundreds of thousands of patterns on the path, and among those patterns, there was only one path that led to the final destination. This path was the path that Liu Wen wanted to take.

The only correct path to find from the hundreds of thousands of patterns was within the two short flashes just now.

In the other stages, many third-grade array masters had just painstakingly arrived at the second stage. Just as they were about to welcome the challenge, they were suddenly stunned by this huge array formation.

They had only taken a rough look. Before they could completely form any impression, the guy suddenly disappeared without giving them a chance to look again.

Suddenly, the masters fell from the sky and landed on the platform. They sat on the platform dejectedly.

They were furious that they were not focused enough just now and were hit in the face before they could react. They did not recognize that path at all.

“Isn’t this too difficult?”

“This is only the third level. How sick are the subsequent levels?”

“Oh my god, this is too terrifying. Those fourth-grade array masters were directly eliminated. If it were me, I probably wouldn’t be able to pass the first level.”

Daniu and Mu Mian could be considered to have gotten to know each other because Liu Tong and the others. After the many victims taught the three of them a lesson, the two of them agreed to continue observing in the square to see how these powerful figures would pass.

Originally, Mu Mian still had a lot of hatred in his heart. He felt that he had been eliminated mostly because the three brothers had harmed him.

Many people in the square had such thoughts. They were still very unconvinced.

However, after seeing the true strength of the third round, all of them were dumbfounded. They did not say anything else to regret.

Even if they were not eliminated and were still inside, they had no chance of passing at all. This was too terrifying.

“What happened just now?”

Daniu’s physical cultivation was not bad, but his cultivation as an array master was still far inferior.

Mu Mian also understood his situation. The academies in Ping City were too powerful, causing many people with poor talent to have the chance to come into contact with many ancient books.

Coupled with the nurturing of a large number of resources, they had a huge number of array masters here.

However, it was inevitable that there were many people with weak talent. For example, Daniu was stupid and was not suitable for this profession at all.

Daniu did not even know what this test was. He only saw a flash of light, and then he could not see anything. It was as if his vision was blurry.

“This level mainly tests the stacked impression of the array master,” Mu Mian explained.

“It was actually a very scattered array formation just now, but there are many key parts in it. How can we capture all these key parts in an instant and piece them together into a complete path? It’s a test of divine sense.”

After Daniu heard this, he nodded in realization. “No wonder my master always said that my physical cultivation is alright, but the improvement of my divine sense is too slow. I can’t advance no matter what. They all say that I have no future.”

Mu Mian looked at Daniu and smiled. He was really not embarrassed to say such a thing.

“It’s fine. Even if this aspect doesn’t work, there will be other ways to go. There’s no need to be too conflicted.”

Daniu looked at him gratefully and said, “I think so too. That’s why I came to participate in the Array Master Competition this time. I want to know more powerful array masters. I think you’re quite powerful.”

The corners of Mu Mian’s mouth twitched slightly. He could tell that he’s powerful with a few actions. If he was really in there, he would be dumbfounded.

While the two of them were chatting, Liu Wen, who was standing motionless, suddenly took a step forward.

Mu Mian realized that Liu Wen had already walked hundreds of feet forward when he turned around again. He had not even captured Liu Wen’s trajectory when Liu Wen had already appeared there.

“What happened? What was that path just now?”

“Hey, why did that person get there? He ran so fast?”

Daniu looked at Liu Wen and scratched his head.

At this moment, Liu Wen did not know what was happening outside. He stared at the stars in the sky as they slowly moved, leaving behind afterimages.

If one looked down from above, they would be able to see his body turning around aimlessly in the desert.

Sometimes, he kept turning left, and sometimes, he moved back and forth, looking like he was spinning on the spot.

However, Liu Wen was extremely fast. These unnecessary and cumbersome steps were very difficult to capture. The people outside could only see that every time Liu Wen walked hundreds of feet, he would stop and think silently. Immediately after, his figure disappeared again and when he reappeared, he was hundreds of feet away.

There were many people solving the questions in the scene, but not many of them were so fast. Of course, in the center of the scene, the few famous masters had already sunk into another realm.

These tens of thousands of feet looked very far, but under Liu Wen’s movements, he quickly arrived in front of the pillar of light.

“This person is so powerful. He can find it in such a short period of time. Look at how confident he is.”

“Indeed, as an array master, confidence is the most important. This person has displayed it vividly.”

The more Liu Wen went on, the more comfortable he became. The time for stagnation also slowly shortened. In the end, he could barely feel any stagnation as he arrived below the pillar of light.

Standing directly below the star was a white door.

Liu Wen did not hesitate and took a step forward and passed through the door. The scene fell silent again. When everything returned to normal, Liu Wen was suddenly in the deep sea.

The deep sea wrapped around him firmly. Suddenly, a dark vortex appeared behind him. The vortex kept devouring the surrounding seawater, which swarmed into the dark abyss. The abyss advanced very quickly and was about to reach Liu Wen’s back.

Liu Wen pushed the seawater aside and swam forward.

In the darkness ahead, a huge strange fish opened its bloody mouth and fused with the darkness beside it, waiting for Liu Wen to fall into it.

Just as Liu Wen was about to die in the stomach of the fish, he suddenly took out his array flag and waved it forward.

A purple lightning bolt landed on the head of the strange fish. The strange fish was instantly charred and fell with green smoke. In a moment, it disappeared.

During this period of time, the black holes behind had already caught up to him and were chasing after Liu Wen at an increased speed.

Everything that the black hole passed through was devoured, turning into a void. The sea behind it was completely empty.

Without a doubt, as long as he landed there, he would definitely be eliminated.

Liu Wen sped up and turned into a fish that shuttled through the seawater.

He pierced through the seawater like a white light, cutting through everything in his way.

A purple giant suddenly stood up from the abyss. He stretched out his arms and grabbed at Liu Wen.

Liu Wen waved the flag in his hand, and a long chain instantly formed, binding the giant’s hands. Then, the chain kept tightening, forcefully tightening the giant’s wrists until they were only half the size.

The giant seemed to be in great pain. As its arm shrank, its body kept expanding as if it was filled with air. When it reached a certain critical point, it exploded with a bang.

“So powerful!” Daniu punched a stone pillar at the side and shouted excitedly.

Mu Mian nodded with a heavy expression. His eyes were clearly filled with excitement.

“Is this the strength of a top array master? To be able to achieve such a level of array formation!”

“What is this mechanism testing? I think it should be testing the ability to fight.”

Daniu thought that he finally understood, but Mu Mian interrupted him mercilessly.

“This is not to test the ability to fight.”

“The most important thing here is the array master’s ability to break formations. Every monster he faces is a small independent array, and he can find the weakness of these arrays in the shortest time and break through.”

“This is only the third level?”
