Chapter 223: The Crumbling Weichi Cheng 🏚️

Published: November 30, -0001

A bad thought suddenly surged into the minds of the two.

They exchanged a glance, cold sweat oozing from their foreheads, chills running down their backs.

Impossible, it must be impossible!

The anger on their faces vanished, their complexions turned pale, and they frantically searched among the six or seven hundred people.

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

After scanning three times, their hearts sank like a large stone thrown into water, completely submerging.

No, no, still no.

Among these six or seven hundred people, no matter how they searched, they did not find Cao Heng and Nian Wuji.

And such a situation usually only has one possibility.

No, it can't be, it absolutely can't be.

They exchanged another glance, their lips trembling, on the verge of tears.

That was the Third Prince of the Wei Kingdom and the Young Master of the Ghost Immortal Sect.

Although their statuses were noble, being top figures in their respective forces, if they couldn’t bring back Cao Heng and Nian Wuji, even if the Emperor and the Sect Leader could forgive them, they couldn’t forgive themselves.

There must have been some kind of accident, yes, it has to be that the formation encountered some kind of anomaly.

Thinking this, they quickly rushed to where the formation monitoring was located.

"Wei Chi Cheng, Elder Ling Zhong, what are you two planning?"

The formation master monitoring the initial testing ground was startled by the two.

"Master Luo, quickly show us if there are still any people in the initial testing ground who have not been teleported out."

Wei Chi Cheng's tone was urgent, almost stuttering.

"Someone hasn't been teleported out?" Master Luo looked at the monitoring formation and then waved his hand: "No, they have all come out."

Wei Chi Cheng swayed and almost fainted, his face pale: "Could it be that there is a problem with the monitoring formation? Master Luo, please check again, don’t let anyone still be inside and not get teleported out!"

Master Luo looked at Wei Chi Cheng and Ling Zhong with a face of speechlessness, frowning: "Wei Chi Cheng, Elder Ling Zhong, what you are saying has no possibility. The formation of the initial testing ground is not made by an ordinary formation master; it was obtained by our Five Kingdoms Formation Master Guild applying to the higher-level Formation Master Guild. It absolutely cannot go wrong. Moreover, even if it did go wrong, it would be apparent immediately; there would be no omissions."

He looked at Wei Chi Cheng and Ling Zhong with pity, sighed slightly, and vaguely guessed the reason.

Their anxiousness must mean that an important figure from their forces has not come out, leading them to be so nervous.

In the past, such situations had occurred, but it was the first time that the leaders of these two major forces had urgently come to inquire.

"Are you suggesting that someone from your Wei Kingdom and Ghost Immortal Sect has not come out?"

After hesitating for a moment, Master Luo couldn't help but speak.

"This..." Wei Chi Cheng's face went pale, almost crying, "Our Third Prince Cao Heng has not come out."

"And our Ghost Immortal Sect's Young Master Nian Wuji is also missing."

Wow!

At this moment, their actions had drawn the attention of many people. Just as their words fell, gasps sounded from the crowd.

The Third Prince of the Wei Kingdom, Cao Heng, and the Young Master Nian Wuji of the Ghost Immortal Sect actually failed to come out from the initial testing ground; this was big news.

In an instant, the crowd was abuzz, the entire outer area of the initial testing ground nearly erupted.

These past few days, they had seen Wei Chi Cheng and Ling Zhong jumping around, extremely arrogant; why had the atmosphere suddenly shifted to this?

Moreover, Wei Chi Cheng and Nian Wuji were both Heaven Level powerhouses; Nian Wuji was even at the mid-Heaven Level. How could such a thing happen?

Everyone was puzzled.

In the history of the initial assessment of the Five Kingdoms Competition, there had indeed been many geniuses who had fallen inside, but these individuals were mostly of ordinary talent. As for top-tier talents falling, it was almost unheard of.
