Chapter 124: I’m Not Listening, I’m Not Listening
Looking at Ye Ping who walked out from the middle of the array formation, Wang Zhuoyu was stunned.
He didn’t expect Ye Ping to be able to effortlessly walk out of the disorientation array formation that he had set up and was full of confidence about.
‘This doesn’t make sense.’
‘Did he cheat?’
Under the rear cliff of Qingyun Dao Sect, Wang Zhuoyu was completely stunned.
He did not expect Ye Ping to break the disorientation array at all.
Although the disorientation array was not a particularly powerful array formation, it would not be broken easily by those who were clueless about array formations. Although it might not be fatal, the person might be trapped for at least half a month.
Yet, Ye Ping actually walked out of it in less than fifteen minutes.
‘This is absurd.’
“How did you walk out?”
Upon sight of Ye Ping who had walked out, Wang Zhuoyu recovered from the shock and looked at Ye Ping, his eyes full of bewilderment.
“Senior Brother, I managed to find the exit according to the patterns of the array artifacts. That’s how I came out.”
Ye Ping answered naturally.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he managed to detect where the array artifact was. He then made some rough deductions according to where it was and saw the array pattern.
After seeing the array pattern, it was easy for him to find the exit.
Hence, he managed to get out of the array within a short period of time.
However, Ye Ping subconsciously thought that Wang Zhuoyu was deliberately making things easier for him. After all, it was just a test and Wang Zhuoyu wasn’t really his enemy. Naturally, he couldn’t have set up such a strong array formation to test him.
Wang Zhuoyu was shocked.
For some reason, he couldn’t help but be reminded of what Xu Luochen had said to him previously.
‘Is Ye Ping really a peerless genius?’
‘No.’
‘No.’
‘The fact that he can break the array doesn’t mean that he’s a peerless genius. The disorientation array is not that difficult to break and he might have done it with luck. I want to try it.’
Wang Zhuoyu simply did not believe that a sect like the Qingyun Dao Sect would be able to recruit such a peerless genius!
He did not believe it.
He didn’t believe it at all!
‘Besides, the fact that Ye Ping has broken the array doesn’t mean that he’s a genius. There are many elements to breaking arrays.’
However, it would be simple to prove if Ye Ping was a talent or not.
He could just make Ye Ping set up an array.
At the thought of this, Wang Zhuoyu immediately spoke up.
“I didn’t expect you to be quite talented, Junior Brother. I shall not teach you using ordinary methods. Show me how you set up an array formation.”
Wang Zhuoyu said.
“Set up an array formation? Senior Brother, I only know how to set up the time array for now, I don’t know about the rest.”
Ye Ping answered truthfully.
He knew only one array formation for now.
‘Time array formation?’
Wang Zhuoyu was stunned again.
“It’s the one you taught me last time.”
Ye Ping quickly explained when he realized that Wang Zhuoyu seemed a little puzzled.
Wang Zhuoyu was stunned again.
‘I taught it to him?’
‘Since when have I ever taught you the time array formation?’
‘Wait...’
Wang Zhuoyu soon recalled it.
He immediately fell silent.
He did not know if what Ye Ping said was true or not.
He felt that Ye Ping’s boasting was getting more and more outrageous.
‘You managed to master the time array formation just by reading a random book of insights that I made up?’
‘If you have that ability, why do you need me to teach you? Why don’t you teach me instead?’
After coming back to his senses, Wang Zhuoyu took a deep breath. He didn’t care if Ye Ping knew the time array formation or not and simply pointed at the book of basic array formations.
“There are 12 different array diagrams in the book of basic array formations that I gave you. Study it on your own. Once you’re done, I’ll come and look for you again and see how talented you are.”
It didn’t matter if Ye Ping didn’t know the other array formations. Anyway, there were twelve different types, and hence, he decided to let Ye Ping learn a random one to gauge his talent.
“Okay, Senior Brother.”
Ye Ping nodded. He was naturally delighted because he definitely wouldn’t be able to set up an array formation now. He only knew one array formation now so he thought that it would be better to learn a few more types. Hence, he decided to let Wang Zhuoyu evaluate his talent.
“That’s fine. Junior Brother Ye, ready the book and study properly. I’ll come and see you again in a few days.”
Since they were at that subject, Wang Zhuoyu also intended to leave first and let Ye Ping study carefully. He would drop by again before going down the mountain for the assessment.
“Okay, goodbye, Senior Brother.”
Soon, Ye Ping respectfully saw Wang Zhuoyu off.
After Wang Zhuoyu left, Ye Ping immediately picked up the book of basic array formations and started studying it.
There were millions of words in the book of basic array formations.
There was a detailed explanation of the origin of the array formations and the concept of array formations. Although Ye Ping knew a portion of it, the feeling of learning from the basics felt extremely enriching for Ye Ping.
He was carefully reading the book.
He skimmed through ten lines at a glance and with his extraordinary memory, he managed to memorize almost all one million words.
At this moment, Ye Ping also instantly grasped a lot of knowledge about array formations.
However, he was very clear that memorizing and understanding were very different. The Dao of array formations required more than memorizing. One would have to understand the mysteriousness and significance of array formations.
Hence, after reading the book, Ye Ping did not rush to look for Wang Zhuoyu and instead stayed in the rear cliff alone to comprehend it carefully instead of remembering it.
At this moment...
In the Crown Prince’s hall in the royal palace of Jin Nation.
The sounds of crying could be heard from inside the Crown Prince’s hall. The eunuchs and palace maids outside were all frowning.
“Brother, no matter what, you have to avenge me.”
“When have I ever been so aggrieved? I went to Jin Nation Academy and ended up suffering a beating.”
“Those guys are inhumane. Regardless of gender and status, they beat all of us up. I was almost disfigured.”
He sobbed incessantly.
In the hall.
A beautiful woman was seated in the middle of the hall and weeping loudly, with almost no regard for her image.
Li Yu was standing opposite her.
“My dear sister, can you stop crying? I was in a good mood but your crying made me frustrated.”
Li Yu, who was in the main hall, began to get a headache.
The woman in front of him was his biological sister, Princess Taihe of Jin Nation.
As the Crown Prince’s biological sister, Princess Taihe was naturally favored and pampered. Ever since she was a child, she had never been aggrieved.
However, some time ago, she insisted on joining the Jin Nation Academy and refused to drop the idea regardless of who tried to persuade her.
Yet, before she could throw her weight around in the Jin Nation Academy with her status as the princess, she suffered a beating.
Li Yu was furious and frustrated.
He was frustrated at the fact that his sister insisted on going to the Jin Nation Academy even though it seemed pointless to him.
He was furious because she was the princess of Jin Nation, and yet the members of the Jin Nation Academy actually beat her up without consideration.
However, those were the rules of the Jin Nation Academy. As the Crown Prince, he was well aware that his father definitely wouldn’t bother about such things and would merely consider it bad luck even though she was a pampered princess.
It was because the Jin Nation Academy did not care about the king at all. The Jin Nation Academy’s famous saying was that one should not spoil the talents they wanted to cultivate.
Hence, regardless of their identity, they would all have to take a beating.
“I don’t care, I don’t care. Anyway, you must avenge me, or I will publicize your scandals. If I get embarrassed, you won’t live well either.”
Princess Taihe threw a tantrum and insisted that Li Yu intervene to avenge her.
“My dear sister, why? Will you be happy if I get embarrassed?”
“Besides, how do you expect me to take revenge? It’s not like you don’t know what kind of a cultivation talent I am.”
“Besides, don’t you know the rules of Jin Nation Academy? Even if Father intervenes, justice won’t be done for you.”
Li Yu was a little depressed.
That was the bad thing about having a biological sister. She knew all the sordid things that he had done and was completely unrestrained. Other princesses would have rushed to suck up to him. Only his biological sister would dare to threaten him, the Crown Prince of the imperial dynasty.
“I don’t want to listen to it, I don’t want to listen to it. If you can’t solve it, we’ll perish together. Anyway, I’m going to get married in the future while you’ll take over the throne of the emperor. Who will remember what mistakes a princess has made in Jin Nation? They’ll only be focusing on you.”
Princess Taihe was incredibly spoiled and insisted that Li Yu take revenge for her.
All of a sudden, Li Yu’s headache worsened.
“What do you want me to do?”
Li Yu asked.
“Get someone to go to the Jin Nation Academy and take revenge on everyone who hit me.”
Princess Taihe clenched her fist and said viciously.
“Think about it, there’s no such person who can do that. Even if there is, do you think he can go there? The Jin Nation Academy assessment is already over.”
Li Yu shook his head.
“I can get Mother or Father to let that person join the academy. He will have some privileges, but I don’t care who this person is. You can decide.”
Princess Taihe said seriously.
Her eyes were red and swollen, not from crying but from the beating that she had suffered.
“Sister, don’t be capricious and willful, alright? You don’t know the rules of the Jin Nation Academy at all. You want one person to fight a group of people? In the entire Jin Nation... Uh!”
Li Yu subconsciously refuted and was suddenly stunned.
He seemed to have thought of something.
