In the dense forest of the array formation conference, a thousand feet long chessboard was located in the depths of the dense forest.
At this moment, there were a few figures standing at the edge of the chessboard.
The array masters who had gathered here from all directions had gone through many obstacles, and only ten of them were left.
Li Yuanqing scanned the faces of these people through Lil Man’s line of sight.
Liu Wen and the other two naturally did not need to be mentioned. These three were Li Yuanqing and Xiao Man. Although they were still young, their attainments in array formations were very deep.
Two of the remaining seven people were not old and were also very famous people.
These two people were a man and a woman. One was called Chai Ming, and the other was called Li Jing.
Both of them were in their seventies or eighties. They were in the prime of their lives and were at the fifth level of the Spiritualization Boundary.
Xiao Man had once mentioned to Li Yuanqing that these two people held these two extremely perceptive array masters in high esteem. They believed that the two of them would be the future leaders of the human race’s array masters.
Many seniors who studied array formations also liked these two juniors very much. The two of them were also very famous in Ping City.
Generally speaking, a powerful array master would have a powerful chamber of commerce behind them. The Chamber of Commerce had a very deep bond with the Array Master. The Chamber of Commerce would not allow it under normal circumstances. The Array Master’s attitude was not firm and he swayed left and right.
But Chai Ming and Li Jing’s situation was completely different.
Although the two of them had yet to sign a cooperation contract with the Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce, they could still obtain a huge amount of resources from the Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce every year for their cultivation.
This could be considered a unique thing.
Although the two of them were only Grade 5 Array Masters at the moment, their strength was not bad.
The other five were old school array masters who had been famous for a long time.
After receiving the more systematic knowledge of array formations that Li Yuanqing had passed down, they had all improved greatly. They were now the top figures among the human array masters.
Each of them represented a huge force behind them.
Just like this old man with white hair and a youthful face, he only held an ordinary wooden piece in his hand and placed it across his forearm. His name was Liu Tianchi, and his armband clearly had the symbol of a Grade 6 Array Master.
This Master Liu was the array master of the Thousand Treasures Trading Company.
Not far from him, a slightly younger man nodded at him with great respect.
This man’s name was Qu Lin, and he was the Hundred Treasure Pavilion’s personal array master. He was also a famous figure.
The other three were Wan Qingshan from Spirit Qi House, Liu Muyun from Three Mountain Guild, and Qiu Huan from Vast Sea Pavilion.
“State Preceptor, since we are already gathered here, I wonder when the last question will be officially announced. Today will definitely be a satisfying competition.”
It was obvious that Liu Tianchi was someone of high seniority. Before anyone else could speak, he dared to take the lead and stand up to ask the sky.
There was a flash of light in the sky, and a slender and beautiful woman fell straight from the sky to the center of the chessboard.
This woman was none other than Xiao Man, a pretty little demon girl. She looked somewhat out of place in the midst of a group of elderly humans.
“State Preceptor!”
Everyone outside the chessboard bowed respectfully to Lil Man inside.
Everyone here had received Xiao Man’s teachings. Although many of them had already lived for mo to three hundred years, they were still too immature in front of the Grand Tutor.
Lil Man smiled and looked around, her gaze falling on Liu Wen and the other two for a while.
“I didn’t expect that everyone would be able to reach the final stage so quickly. It’s much faster than I expected.”
“It’s all thanks to Imperial Preceptor’s teachings that we didn’t waste Imperial Preceptor’s efforts.”
Xiao Man raised both of her hands, and a shadow appeared on the huge chessboard, rising from under her feet to the top of her head.
The huge chessboard was set up in the sky. The entire chessboard had a total of eighty-one squares, divided into nine small areas by three large curves.
“There are a total of nine regions in these disks. In the initial state, each person or team can only have one region.”
“You must try your best to plunder more territory from the other party. In the end, if you can take the entire chessboard for yourself, you will be the champion of this array master competition.”
After Lil Man finished speaking, the huge chessboard phantom above her head faintly dissipated.
“The competition has officially begun!”
Lil Man had just said a few words before she disappeared without a sound.
The huge chessboard flickered slightly and was divided into nine squares.
The array masters present looked at each other before taking a step forward and landing in the area closest to them.
Many of them had come in groups, but now that they were here, most of them had dispersed.
Yang Tianqi and Hu Qian occupied the west while Liu Wen landed in the southwest corner.
On the other side of Liu Wen, the one occupying the south was Liu Mu Yun of the Three Mountains Guild.
Chai Ming and Li Jing stood on the north side.
The atmosphere at the scene was a little tense. Logically speaking, the position in the middle of each side had a certain weight.
It was fine if the mo pairs each took one, but Liu Mu Yun also coincidentally took a spot in the south.
Now, there was only the east side left. This was an important position. The remaining elders of the Array Formation Master Association had their own plans in their hearts..
