Chapter 475: Four hundred seventy-three, Competition (6)

"When I went to find you, I came across that golden halo and got sucked in. Besides me, Yun Han was also there," Luo Shu said. When it came to Yun Han, she felt nothing but guilt.

"When I see him, I will properly thank him," Lu Hanmo said with mixed emotions. He felt guilty toward Yun Han, but even more so, he was grateful. Grateful for his kindness toward Shushu, for his sacrifices for her. At the moment he was swept into the golden halo, he even thought that if he died, he hoped Shushu could find someone else to accompany her, to love her. As long as she was happy, he would have no regrets. And the person he hoped would stand by Shushu was Yun Han.

"He’s participating in this quad-nation contest too. We’ll be able to meet him in a month," Luo Shu said.

"Great! My communication talisman has been fixed, so we can talk every day from now on," Lu Hanmo said with a smile. Even though he could not meet her in person, being able to hear her voice was also a form of happiness.

"Mhm! It’s almost my turn to compete, let’s chat again tonight," Luo Shu said, reluctant to part.

"I’ll find you tonight," Lu Hanmo said with a smile.

Luo Shu put away her communication talisman and ran quickly toward the competition field, a radiant smile on her face. In just one month, she and Hanmo would be reunited.

Although the Artifact Refining Competition of the Upper Pavilion did not make it into the top ten, the performances of the three disciples were all not bad. At least they were not at the bottom like before.

After the Artifact Refining Competition ended, several Formation masters began setting up the formations on the field. The rules of the Formation competition were even simpler and more brutal: whoever exited the formation first would be the victor.

"That little freak is going to compete in this match. It wasn’t fun at all without her in the last match," Mo Qingli laughed. He enjoyed watching the little freak scare others.

"Indeed," the crowd agreed with a nod. In the last Artifact Refining match, there were no outstanding contestants. The first, second, and third places were all close, with no significant gaps.

"I, the city lord, am going to make it a bit more difficult for the little freak," Mo Qingli said, already leaping down from the judge’s seat.

Elder Xu and the rest shook their heads silently. It was probably not Luo Shu who would be confounded by the end, but the other contestants.

Mo Qingli approached the Formation masters who were setting up the formation, whispered a few words to them, and they nodded in understanding. They then made the nearly completed formation more complex according to Mo Qingli’s request.

When everyone had finished setting up the formation, the gray-robed elder walked onto the stage and announced to those participating in the Formation competition, "This competition is not timed. Once the first hundred contestants exit the formation, the competition will end. Now, the competition begins!"

As the elder’s words fell, the competitors rushed into the formations.

Upon entering the formation, everyone was somewhat confused. The formation in front of them was more complex than any they had seen before. Each step was intricately linked, exuding a mysterious aura. Just as they solved one pattern, before they could celebrate, they found that the number of patterns had not decreased but increased instead.

Luo Shu entered the formation and also noticed the oddity of this formation. Luckily, she had studied formations from the Formation Secret Manuals in the palace. Otherwise, she would certainly have been stumped too. Moreover, she realized that these patterns all required calculation to be solved.

Wielding Formation Flags, Luo Shu calculated while swiftly tossing them around her.

Unconsciously, Luo Shu had completely immersed herself in the formation. When she snapped back to reality, she had already exited the formation.

Turning back, Luo Shu looked thoughtfully at the formation behind her and suddenly had an epiphany. She sat down cross-legged on the spot and began to cultivate.

"What is she doing?"

"Why is she starting to cultivate now?" Seeing Luo Shu close her eyes and begin to cultivate, the onlooking crowd showed surprised and shocked expressions.

"Is she having an Enlightenment?" Elder Xu and the others widened their eyes in shock.

Mo Qingli burst into hearty laughter, "I told you she’s a freak! Send two people to guard her, and let no one disturb her." His admiration for Luo Shu grew even more.

"She is actually having an Enlightenment!" The elders of Qingfeng Academy shook their heads in disbelief. They had never seen such a talent before. She should have belonged to their Qingfeng Academy, but they had driven her away themselves.

"Once her Enlightenment is over, she will become even stronger. Then the upcoming martial force contest will truly be hers, won’t it?"

"We must stop her, we absolutely cannot let her succeed."

"Since she isn’t with us, we must destroy her,"

Many sects present at the event harbored the same thought, watching the surroundings, ready to seize any opportunity.

Luo Shu let her consciousness sink entirely into the space while having Xiao Qing watch over her surroundings. Should anyone attempt to take advantage of the situation and attack her, they would be killed without mercy.

As time passed, the aura around Luo Shu grew stronger and her Cultivation rapidly returned to the Nascent Soul Peak. However, this was not the end. Her Cultivation still continued to ascend without stopping. This outcome was unexpected even to Luo Shu herself.

"We must go and protect Luo Shu," the Nascent Soul Elder said, sensing the wrong atmosphere and shouting to the disciples of the Upper Pavilion. Even if their power was insignificant, they could not let anyone harm Luo Shu at this time.

Without hesitation, everyone ran quickly toward Luo Shu.

As the people of the Upper Pavilion rushed toward Luo Shu, the disciples of various sects also covertly approached her.

"It seems like Luo Shu is in trouble!" Elder Xu frowned.

A flash of anger crossed Mo Qingli’s eyes, "Go and stop them. If anyone dares to injure Luo Shu, the city lord will not let them off lightly!" It had not been easy to find such an exceptional genius; he absolutely could not let her be destroyed under his watch.

Some wanted to protect Luo Shu, while others wished to destroy her, causing some chaos at the scene. No one cared about how the competition was going anymore. To many sects, not winning first place meant the competition no longer held much significance.

Suddenly the sky grew dark with thick clouds, and the rumble of thunder could be heard from the clouds.

"She’s about to ascend to the Spirit Division Phase; she’s about to face the Heavenly Tribulation. Everyone, clear the area!"

"How can she ascend without a Spirit Division Pill?"

"As expected of a freak, she can even do without the Spirit Division Pill." As the Heavenly Tribulation thunder was about to strike, both those attempting to protect Luo Shu and those lying in wait retreated rapidly. The thunder of the Spirit Division Phase was not something they could withstand.
