173: The Versailles game is just a copy of the array pattern.

The students who were comprehending the essence of the Formation patterns each had different expressions.

Yuan Xiwei also took the opportunity to consult Meng Ze about the mysteries of the Formation patterns.

"Old Meng, each of them has their eyes closed, but their expressions are different. Is it because what they see in their Sea of Consciousness is different?"

Yuan Xiwei asked humbly.

Old Meng's attainments in Mental Energy and Formations were indeed profound.

Old Meng picked up his thermos cup, took a sip of hot tea, and said calmly, "That's right."

Then he pointed to Wang Yunfei, who was pale and bloodless, and said, "He might have seen something terrifying. Look how scared he is."

He then pointed to Fang Hua, who was frowning deeply and in deep thought, saying, "He might be working on an Olympiad math problem. That's what's troubling him."

Yuan Xiwei then pointed to Che Xiaomeng, who was pouting and gritting her teeth, asking, "What about Xiao Meng?"

Old Meng took another sip of tea, "As for her, she was most likely robbed of her food…"

Gao Junjie, who was nearby, became interested and leaned over, pointing at Jiang Fan, "What's the situation with this kid, who has a smile on his lips?"

Meng Ze said indifferently, "From what I know of this kid, he either snatched someone's treasure or took a liking to someone's daughter."

Yuan Xiwei: "…"

Gao Junjie: "…"

The few of them chatted and laughed.

“Pfft!”

Suddenly, a sound of spitting blood rang out.

Wang Yunfei opened his eyes, his face filled with terror, and he gasped for breath.

Yuan Xiwei quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Are you alright, Yunfei?"

Wang Yunfei was still shaken and shook his head.

Meng Ze, accustomed to such sights, said, "It's just a slight backlash, you won't die. Yunfei, what did you see just now?"

Wang Yunfei swallowed, and said nervously, "Vicious Beasts, a large number of Vicious Beasts rushed towards me like a tide. I… I couldn't stop them!"

Meng Ze patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Adjust yourself and try again!"

Wang Yunfei nodded blankly.

Outside the tower.

Everyone found this competition quite boring.

Things happening in the Sea of Consciousness could not be materialized for everyone to see.

Everyone could only watch the few people sitting there motionlessly.

They also didn't know how far along the few of them were.

Finally, Wang Yunfei's spitting blood caused a discussion among everyone.

"Damn! Is this Formation pattern engraving really that difficult? He can even spit blood? Is he anxious because he can't engrave it?"

"It should be a backlash. The stronger the Formation pattern's power, the greater the risk of backlash. To put it bluntly, it's because Wang Yunfei's Mental Energy is weak."

…

At this moment, Xie Chen's thoughts were entirely on Wang Tao.

He kept glancing at the top of the tall tower, feeling uneasy.

Inside the tower.

Yuan Xiwei continued to ask, "Old Meng, how long does it take for the first Formation pattern to be engraved if one is fast?"

Meng Ze rattled off, "For those with extremely high talent, it takes half an hour if fast, and more than an hour if slow. Back then, Guanhai Titan completed this stage in 28 minutes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the commotion nearby caught the attention of the three.

Jiang Fan had already stood tall, his eyes shining brightly.

Seeing this, Meng Ze cursed, "You little brat, are you in a hurry to pee? I told you to go to the toilet earlier, but you didn't, and now you're pulling this stunt."

Jiang Fan's face darkened upon hearing this, and he said helplessly, "I don't need to go to the toilet. I'm already done."

Meng Ze was puzzled, then suddenly realized, "You little brat, did you just see a beautiful girl? Are you getting 'done' a bit too quickly?!"

Yuan Xiwei's face turned crimson as she listened nearby.

Jiang Fan was utterly speechless.

This Old Meng was not young, yet his mind was full of such nonsense.

So, he said, "I mean, I've already deciphered the Formation pattern and can engrave it!"

As soon as he said this, the three instructors all looked up at the timer.

It showed that only 5 minutes had passed.

Meng Ze was so amused he started laughing, "You kid, what kind of joke are you playing? Back then, Guanhai Titan…"

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Fan shook his head, too lazy to explain anything to him.

He stood in front of the Formation Plate, and Mental Energy surged out from his Sea of Consciousness.

Instantly, all the anchor points completed the framework.

The next moment, a large amount of atomized Mental Energy filled the framework.

Buzz!

The Formation Plate lit up, and a profound energy fluctuation was generated, enveloping the entire space.

"This… it's actually this fast!"

Meng Ze simply couldn't believe it. He had taken 43 minutes for this first stage back then.

Not to mention him, Guanhai Titan's record was 28 minutes to complete it.

This kid actually completed it in 5 minutes.

Meng Ze looked at Jiang Fan in disbelief. He walked to the Formation Plate and carefully inspected it.

Then he exclaimed, "100%?! All the Formation patterns are full and saturated, with no breaks appearing."

He then glanced at the timer in front of Jiang Fan. After the Formation Plate was activated, the counter automatically stopped.

The number on it was fixed at 05 minutes and 20 seconds.

Another record broken!

The shock in Meng Ze's heart was inexpressible. He could only silently pick up his teacup and drink his tea.

However, his trembling hand still spilled tea all over him.

Yuan Xiwei looked at Jiang Fan, who had an innocent expression, and couldn't help but ask, "How exactly did you do it?"

Jiang Fan scratched his head and said indifferently, "I just engraved it according to the Formation pattern."

Undoubtedly, a true Versailles!

Several instructors expressed their speechlessness.

After the Formation Plate was activated, the powerful energy fluctuations also affected the students who were comprehending the Formation patterns nearby.

Pfft!

Qiao Han spat out a mouthful of blood.

He had already realized it the moment the Formation Plate was activated.

After exiting his Sea of Consciousness, he then heard the conversation between Jiang Fan and the instructors.

For a moment, Qiao Han, overwhelmed by anger, couldn't help but spit it out.

With all hope lost, a sense of sorrow rose from the bottom of his heart:

"If Zhou Yu was born, why was Zhuge Liang also born!"

Outside the tower.

The bored students felt a strong energy fluctuation coming from inside the tower.

A student who had been watching the projected screen shouted out.

"It's Jiang Shen! Jiang Shen has already completed the engraving of a Formation pattern!"

"Damn! Jiang Shen is really not human! He broke another record!"

"It's getting more and more outrageous. I even suspect if Jiang Shen had already mastered this Formation in advance!"

"Qiao Han was even stimulated to spit blood. Is Jiang Shen's showing off so deadly?"

"The key is, Jiang Shen chatted with a few instructors first, and then he started engraving. That means Jiang Shen actually only used possibly less than 5 minutes."

"Is this 5 minutes and 20 seconds, was it intentional by Jiang Shen?"

"Possibly. It's said that two nights ago, Jiang Shen fought desperately with a master for a girl named Xia Dong from the Martial Artist group!"

"Wow! Jiang Shen is too romantic! He's using his ranking performance to confess!"
