Martial Master

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

Zuo Wei continuously made hand seals, his gaze sharp, desperately controlling the array flags that he had tampered with within the formation.

Inside the grand array, a continuous buzzing sound echoed, giving people a feeling of being out of control.

Moments passed.

“How is it?” Zhou Xun looked at Zuo Wei with fiery eyes.

“Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, not yet, but soon!”

Zuo Wei said in a deep voice, his expression serious, but there was an ominous feeling in his heart.

For some reason, he could clearly sense the location of his array flags within the formation, but when he tried to manipulate them, it felt as if there was a barrier in between.

“It’s impossible! According to the tampering I left, no matter how these flags are arranged, as long as I urge my mental power, control should immediately return to me. Why is it now…”

Cold sweat trickled down Zuo Wei's forehead as he increased the output of his mental power. Immediately, the formation around the stone platform surged more violently, and finally, with a buzz, it settled down.

“Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, it’s successful.”

Zuo Wei was overjoyed and said excitedly.

He could feel that all the array flags in front of him were under his control.

“Haha, good, very good! Whoever captures this kid for me will be exempt from handing in their spirit medicine!” Zhou Xun, ecstatic, immediately pointed at Qin Chen and shouted.

“Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, let me do it!”

Before Zhou Xun could finish his sentence, a black figure had already shot out from the crowd; it was the early-stage Martial Venerable who had previously clashed with Qin Chen.

This person wore a fierce expression, directly charging into the formation, his hands surging with true power, instantly grasping towards Qin Chen.

“This guy is too cunning.”

“Damn, stealing credit way too fast.”

Many powerful warriors, just about to take action, saw that the sixth-tier Martial Venerable had already rushed into the formation, instantly furious to the point of spitting blood.

“Hahaha, come on, let’s enter the formation too.”

Zhou Xun was overjoyed and led a few of his subordinates towards the stone platform.

On the stone platform, Qin Chen looked terrified, clearly enraged and frightened by the loss of control over the formation, staring in fear at the rampaging middle-aged Martial Venerable.

“Kid, my name is Pan Xiong. Remember, be a little more low-key in the future, or you’ll never know how you die.”

Pan Xiong stared into Qin Chen's terrified eyes, feeling unprecedentedly exhilarated, and fiercely attacked.

“Thanks for the reminder.”

Just as Pan Xiong's attack was about to land on Qin Chen, the previously frightened expression on Qin Chen's face suddenly calmed down, and a hint of mockery and ridicule emerged from the depths of his eyes.

Pan Xiong immediately sensed something was off; at a time like this, the other party still had the mood to laugh.

Buzz!

Then the grand array around the stone platform suddenly activated, an overwhelming killing intent surged out from within the array.

“Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, what’s going on?”

Pan Xiong was suddenly alarmed, shouting in rage, and in horror discovered that his body couldn't move at all.

In the next moment, boundless killing intent pierced through his body. With a puff, blood spurted from him, and Pan Xiong's eyes revealed terror as he let out a miserable scream. In an instant, he was engulfed by the array's light, shredded into blood mist, and dissipated into the air.

Only a storage ring remained, which was collected by Qin Chen.

This sudden event left everyone dumbfounded.

Zhou Xun and the others abruptly stopped, looking at Zuo Wei in shock, "Zuo Wei, what on earth is happening?"

Although they were not array masters, they could tell that Pan Xiong had just died at the hands of the suddenly activated formation, but wasn’t this formation supposed to be entirely under Zuo Wei's control?

Cold sweat instantly appeared on Zuo Wei's forehead as he said in terror, “Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, I don’t know!”
