Then she picked up each treasure used to construct the array and carefully traced the array patterns onto it.
Her expression was intensely focused. She strove to do her best, making sure she missed none of the patterns needed to construct the array.
Thus, she could keep her Master, Elder Gongsun, from losing face before the young man later.
For an array master, engraving patterns with such precision consumed a terrifying amount of energy and Divine Soul power.
Several incense sticks later, Yan Ruyu finally stopped. Pale-faced, she looked at the others, irrepressible pride rising in her eyes.
"Sect Master Luo, Steward Hou, Steward Gao, I have fulfilled my task."
"The Array Within an Array is complete. It consists of three Dao Integration arrays at Minor Accomplishment, together with more than ten Void Refinement Realm arrays."
"Thank you for your hard work, Junior Sister Ruyu."
Hearing that she had laid out more than ten arrays in one go, Hou Yue'er looked impressed.
She had not expected this junior sister to handle their first assignment together so thoroughly and beautifully.
All the more reason not to let her down.
"It's nothing. This was what I ought to do."
Yan Ruyu heard the regard in Steward Hou's words, but merely gave a perfunctory reply.
Then, with apprehension written across her face, she turned toward the young man.
I laid out so many arrays in one go. Even with the help of array-making treasures, surely that's enough to make him think more highly of me!
Feeling that burning gaze fixed on his face, Luo Yi was rather speechless.
Whenever he set up arrays, he had always forced one great array over another.
He could not even make sense of the interlocking arrays she had mastered. How was he supposed to offer a critique?
