Beginner's Guide to Array Formations

After listening to Cheng Ziran explain the general situation of the Yuan Race, Zhang Zhi said with a wide smile, "Know Yourself and Your Enemy, Undefeated in a Hundred Battles. Brother Cheng, you've helped me a great deal."

"I see you still have things to attend to, Brother Cheng, so I won't keep you."

A look of relief appeared on Cheng Ziran's face. "Alright, Master of the World. I still have some matters to discuss with my junior nephews and nieces, so I'll take my leave for now."

"Regarding the Yuan Race, if you have any commands, we will gladly go through fire and water for you."

After learning the general situation of the Yuan Race from Cheng Ziran, Zhang Zhi no longer hesitated. He decided to strike while the iron was hot and head straight for the Yuan Race's lair.

This time, the leader wasn't Fang Yun, but Nian Xinyu.

He was a cultivator who had just been promoted to the Elite Realm, recommended to Zhang Zhi by Fang Yun. He was the only cultivator in the Small World who currently showed a talent for leadership.

Similar to Nian Xinyu was Fang Long. Both came from the same card, the Human Card that Zhang Zhi had upgraded to Dark Green Rank using his Mental Power.

Therefore, Nian Xinyu was fully summoned this time, and Zhang Zhi also intended to see exactly what this person's abilities were.

It wasn't that Zhang Zhi was being overconfident; he was already completely certain he could defeat the Yuan Race opposite him.

After sparring with that person, Fang Yun had returned and said that the Extraordinary Realm Yuan Race member had problems, that they weren't in a complete Extraordinary state, and seemed very restricted.

He speculated that the person had likely used a method with severe repercussions, such as Divine Descent or the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Great Method, to forcibly and temporarily raise themselves to the Extraordinary Realm.

Hearing Fang Yun say this, several of the doubts in Zhang Zhi's mind were resolved:

Why didn't that Extraordinary Realm Yuan Race cultivator attack the defensive Array Formation set up by Cheng Ziran and the others before? If that Extraordinary had been willing to attack, the Array Formation would have been breached long ago.

It also explained why the Yuan Race's previous attack rhythm was so slow, dragging on for so long before attacking the Human Race's Trial Tower. Before, he had thought there was something fishy going on.

After Fang Yun said this, he realized: It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they couldn't.

That Extraordinary state wasn't stable, and besides, all the summoned units were projections anyway. Even if the Yuan Race had some hidden trump cards, the loss would only be some World Power.

And for a dangerous Secret Realm like this, he naturally stayed put at home.

The scene in this Secret Realm wasn't large. The straight-line distance between the two Trial Towers was only about twenty miles. To avoid wasting World Power, this battle definitely had to end within three hours.

Time was tight. After Zhang Zhi gave the command to leave no one alive, Nian Xinyu led an army of nineteen Mortal Transformation cultivators and a thousand Elite Realm cultivators straight towards the Yuan Race's Trial Tower.

Fang Yun naturally stayed by his side.

As for Cheng Ziran, he once again set up the Thick Earth Ironwood Array outside the Trial Plaza. The Human Race cultivators who hadn't left all quietly remained on alert within the Thick Earth Ironwood Array.

The Tower Defense Rules were the most important rule in the Race Battle Trial Tower. As long as one could touch the opponent's Trial Tower, it meant they had won the trial battle.

However, one could only enter the opponent's Trial Plaza and touch their Trial Tower when the number of people in the opponent's Trial Plaza exceeded half the total number of people in the Secret Realm.

Although Cheng Ziran had already experienced over a dozen Trial Tower Secret Realms, he wasn't sure if the Retainers summoned by the Master of the World counted towards the Human Race's numbers.

To be safe, he set up the Thick Earth Ironwood Array outside the Trial Plaza.

Half an hour later, through the World Master's perspective, Zhang Zhi learned that the army led by Nian Xinyu had arrived within less than a mile of the Yuan Race's Trial Tower. Along the way, they hadn't found any trace of the Yuan Race, let alone resistance.

The Yuan Race seemed to have given up.

At this moment, a figure slowly walked towards the Trial Plaza.

Upon seeing that figure, Cheng Ziran tensed up, pushing the Array Formation's defense to its limit.

That figure was naturally the Extraordinary Realm Yuan Race member that Zhang Zhi had been guarding against all along.

He had kept Fang Yun behind and had Cheng Ziran activate the defensive Array Formation, all to guard against this guy launching a surprise attack.

Or rather, he was 100% certain that the Yuan Race's Extraordinary would launch a surprise attack.

Only by successfully capturing the tower could that Yuan Race Extraordinary leave this Secret Realm. After all, he was now considered an Extraordinary Realm cultivator, and he absolutely couldn't obtain a Blue Rank Command from this Small World.

Upon seeing that person, Fang Yun nodded at Zhang Zhi, leaped up, and landed lightly in front of that person.

Upon seeing Fang Yun, that Extraordinary seemed to have already foreseen his end. He muttered something in a low voice, and then his entire aura visibly surged.

Extraordinary Rank Two, Three, breaking through to the Extraordinary Middle Stage, and then Four, Five.

Looking at the enemy whose aura was violently increasing, Fang Yun's expression also became solemn. He extended his hand and pressed a palm towards that Extraordinary's chest.

Seeing Fang Yun attack, that person didn't dodge. Instead, he let out a loud roar, transforming into a massive white light that charged towards Fang Yun.

What seemed like a world-shattering collision actually made no sound.

Fang Yun was struck by the white light and sent flying back dozens of meters, directly crashing into the Trial Plaza.

As for the Yuan Race's Extraordinary, after the white light dissipated, besides a few items that fell, there wasn't a single trace left. The entire person vanished without a shadow.

A moment later, news also came from Nian Xinyu's side. Besides a small number of Elite Realm and some Ordinary Realm Yuan Race members, all the others had vanished without a trace.

He speculated that the vast majority of the Yuan Race had likely left this Secret Realm through the Trial Tower.

Until the Trial Tower announced that the Human Race had won this race confrontation Secret Realm, Cheng Ziran and the others were still in a daze.

Their experience in this Secret Realm was like a rollercoaster. They thought they were about to win, but then an Extraordinary Realm appeared on the opposite side, and the Human Race suffered heavy casualties.

After being suppressed to the entrance of the Trial Tower by the opponent, just when they were about to be completely wiped out, the next moment, the enemy actually surrendered and fled.

He looked at Zhang Zhi with a somewhat complex gaze, thinking, No wonder the saying 'The Master of the World is the Multiverse's biological son' is spreading wider and wider now.

No wonder so many Foreign Race Main Worlds are now uniting to suppress the Master of the World's Main World.

The Master of the World, one person is a world!

After a moment of thought, he took out a book and handed it to Zhang Zhi. "I owe you a great deal for this Secret Realm. I have nothing to repay you with, but I see that your Retainers don't seem to have studied Array Formations. This is some of my understanding of the Array Formation path. It might be able to help your Retainers. Please accept it."

Zhang Zhi lowered his head and glanced at the book Cheng Ziran handed over. The cover had the four large characters "Beginner's Guide to Array Formations" written on it.

Although there might be hidden circumstances regarding Cheng Ziran and his Junior Sister, as a Human Race cultivator, he had done very well in the Trial Ground.
