Painting of the Nine Immortals

After leaving Fang Yuan's room, Ling Xian's speed of going through one room per second remained. Every single time he arrived in a new room, he would lift the array immediately and come to the next room at ease.

His instantaneous array lifting skills and his leisure steps made everyone watch in awe.

"What is this? Isn't that person far too insane?"

"I don't even know when he started this competition. But I do that since we started paying attention, only some time had passed and he has already arrived at the 200th room from the 100th. Just how unbelievable?"

"This is far too hard to believe. He is solving one problem a second. How heaven-defying!"

"That's right. This horrifying speed is something even the rare genius Ta Ba Feng cannot compete with."

Everyone was gasping in shock. Other than surprises in their eyes, there were still surprises.

Even the elders who were suspending in midair were watching with their mouths and eyes wide open. Disbelief was written all over their faces.

Remember that during this year's competition, the arrays were set to be extremely difficult - at least harder than previous years. Though not every single room was designed with unsolvable problems, all of them required some time to lift.

Using these elders for example, even after they entered, they would need a few minutes to get rid of the array. Yet Ling Xian was merely swinging around his arms and breaking them one per second. Just how dominating?

Why wouldn't they feel astounded?

As much as they were shocked, they couldn't help but compare Ling Xian to Ta Ba Feng. After comparing them, they suddenly realized that even that leading rare genius could not reach this insane speed.

Therefore, everyone at the scene turned even more surprised!

They all realized then that Ta Ba Feng had found his enemy.

"This is interesting."

The leader of the Path of Array, who was hiding amongst the cloud, grinned and checked out the two mirrors before him, "Two geniuses with unnatural array talents… I wonder who will end up prevailing."

His old eyes flashed with anticipation as he continued to watch the two of them without blinking.

Everyone else had high expectations as well.

After they realized that a capable competitor appeared to fight against Ta Ba Feng, all of their faces turned expectant as they all wanted a good show.

Therefore, half of the people had their attention on Ling Xian, who was breaking arrays at an insane speed. The other half were looking at Ta Ba Feng, who was in the 480th room and was deep in thoughts.

It was as if these two were the only people left in the world.

What could they do? Both of them were far too dazzling. Whether it was Ta Ba Feng, who had taken a lead since the beginning, or Ling Xian, who was lifting arrays with a flap of his sleeve, both of them were like the shining Sun in the sky, shedding down bright light.

As for the other competitors, no matter how hard they tried, they could not unleash the same level of brightness.

To everyone, this competition had turned into a stage designed for those two. Only those two had the right to fight for the winning seat!

Only those two qualified to be each other's competition!

Therefore, all gazes were placed upon them. Nobody could see anyone else anymore.

The discussion everyone had was heard by Ta Ba Feng as well. However, he didn't think much of it. He was known as a genius and naturally he had his rights to be confident.

Therefore, he didn't think anyone would pose a threat to him.

"So what he averaged one array per second? All the rooms before were super easy. I could've done it as well."

Ta Ba Feng had a nonchalant smile on his lips, "The further you go, the harder the arrays get. Let me see if you can keep up that speed after you get further. If you can, then I will admit that you are worthy enough to be my opponent."

Then, he stopped thinking about this and focused on the array before him.

Just like he said, the rooms got harder as you proceeded, especially after the 400th room. The change in these arrays changed in property and for someone like him, who was considered a master, would need time to solve the arrays.

Therefore, his insane speed slowed down and he was a little stuck in the 480th room.

However, this person was anything but extraordinary. After thinking for a short while, he lifted the array.

"I hope you can catch up to me. Or else this competition would be boring."

Laughing, Ta Ba Feng marched forward and continued his lead in this competition.

Just as this person broke free of the array, Ling Xian was achieving the same. He continued his insane speed.

He was now second place and the distance between him and Ta Ba Feng had shrunk greatly.

"I am around the 300th?"

Ling Xian faintly grinned as he stared afar as if he would see the future grandmaster after he passed through the wall.

"During the lots century, I didn't know much arrays so I never interacted with this man and I only heard his name. I cannot believe in real life, the day would come when I am his opponent."

Exclaiming, Ling Xian's starry light flickered with anticipation and he chuckled, "Alright, then let me try you and see how much you've grown."

Then, he rolled up his sleeve and instantly broke another array.

Then, he began to lift these arrays in a crazy manner. With his terrifying speed, he broke through one room after another.

As time went by, the arrays he encountered grew more difficult. However, his speed did not at all slow down. Instead, they were getting faster, which astounded everyone who was watching.

What could they do? His array skill was far too terrifying. Most of the people thought he was of the grandmaster level. However, only he himself knew that he was not going to be a normal grandmaster, he would be a dominating grandmaster who overshadows everyone!

Therefore, despite the arrays getting increasingly difficult, he could still break the arrays instantly!

Under this terrifying speed, the gap between him and Ta Ba Feng slowly shrunk.

Since the beginning, when they were apart by 400 rooms, there were only 40 rooms between them now!

This made everyone watching extremely bewildered as they felt extremely astonished!

As much as they were shocked, their expectations also grew as they waited for the clash of the two rare geniuses.

Just like that, time passed by little by little.

After some time, Ling Xian finally arrived at the 512th room, when Ta Ba Feng was inside the 513th room.

In other words, there were merely steps between them.

Everyone widened their eyes at this as they held their breaths and stared deadly at the silhouette in white.

The audiences were beginning to boil.

"I can sense someone's Qi. It looks like you are right before me."

Ling Xian stood by the wall and revealed a complex smile. Then, he rolled up his sleeve and instantly broke the array!

In the next second, he marched on forward in giant steps and announced his arrival!

The moment he landed on the ground, Ta Ba Feng turned around abruptly and he frowned.

Everyone who was watching at the time all felt their blood traveling up their heads and boiling!
