Chapter 1725

"Trick? Are you suspecting that the Luo Gate is biased? "

Elder Luo Gate revealed a mocking look and said, "What you see may not be true. If you fail, think about what you did wrong. Don't blame others. Otherwise, no matter how many times you try, you won't be able to walk out of the Eight Trigrams!"

With a flick of his sleeve, several disciples immediately escorted the candidate away so that he would not affect the rest of the test.

The candidate was escorted away. Tears streamed down his face as he screamed as if he had gone mad.

The crowd did not understand what he had experienced in the Eight Trigrams, but they realized that the test was far more difficult than it seemed.

Only one out of fifty people had passed, and he had done it in the nick of time!

"Did you see any clues?"

Gu Chen had witnessed the entire process, and his voice was transmitted to Fang Shijie's mind behind him.

"The Eight Trigrams array is ever-changing. If you are not in the array, it is difficult to determine what he has experienced. Even if you understand what he has experienced, the situation we face when we enter the array may be very different.

"If I use the Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin, I can see some clues at a glance and break the array easily. It's just that leader doesn't allow me to use it."

Fang Shijie's voice also quietly sounded in Gu Chen's mind.

The Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin was the Fang family's strongest eye technique. It could observe the power of the mountains and rivers, as well as the aura of all things. It was naturally not a problem for it to break illusions and arrays.

With the help of the Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin, the Fang family's Genesis techniques could be displayed to the extreme. Fang Shijie had cultivated in seclusion for a hundred years, and the Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin had reached a very high level.

However, although the Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin was powerful, its characteristics were also very obvious. To prevent others from seeing through his identity, Gu Chen asked Fang Shijie not to use it casually.

"Can't you pass without using the Divine Eye of Heaven's Origin?"

Gu Chen transmitted his voice as he turned to look at Fang Shijie. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

Fang Shijie seemed to be provoked when he heard this, and he looked at Gu Chen with a burning gaze. "Leader, if I take first place, will it cause too much of a commotion? Will it cause trouble for you?"

His tone was filled with the confidence of victory, with a sense of determination!

Gu Chen originally wanted him to perform well so that he could join the inner sect, but he seemed to want to do even better.

Gu Chen knew that Fang Shijie had been tormented by hatred for the past hundred years, all he wanted to do was to kill Fang Yuan, and the Luo Sect in front of him was his first step.

Gu Chen knew that Fang Shijie had been stubbornly isolating himself from the outside world for the past hundred years. Although his strength had greatly increased because of this, his mentality was very problematic.

What he said just now was to provoke him, and it was time for him to vent his anger.

"As long as you don't expose your inheritance, do whatever you want. If there's any trouble, I'll handle it."

Gu Chen replied indifferently. Fang Shijie's expression shook. He already knew what he had to do.

Batch after batch of examinees took turns to walk into the Eight Trigrams, but their results were still unsatisfactory.

In a batch of examinees, it was considered good if two or three of them passed the test. Some batches were completely annihilated.

Seeing this, Luo Sect Elder's brows gradually furrowed. The quality of this batch of examinees had disappointed him.

However, when he thought of the fact that the sect test was held once every hundred years, and that it had to be repeated after just ten years, the situation was not so surprising anymore.

Luo Sect Elder's thoughts drifted, and he seemed to have thought of something. His face revealed a worried expression, and he sighed.

Another batch of examinees had a miserable ending, and it was finally Gu Chen's turn.

Tang Jianqing lined up in front of Gu Chen. His expression was stiff, and he did not say a word. Anyone could see that he was nervous at the moment.

The passing rate was too low!

Tang Jianqing had originally fantasized that he would amaze the world with a single brilliant feat, being fought over by the nine Prophets of Luo Sect, and stepping into the inner sect in one go, becoming the proud son of heaven that everyone in Pei Country would know.

However, even the number of examinees entering the outer sect was far less than he had imagined, which made him dispel all his ambitions. Now, he only prayed in his heart that he could pass the test and enter the outer sect.

He was extremely nervous. Occasionally, when he turned around, he saw that Gu Chen and Fang Shijie were calm and composed, as if they were not worried at all. He could not help but curse inwardly, "The ignorant are fearless."

In his opinion, the two of them had only studied scriptures for a few days, so they were probably a dead pig that did not fear boiling water. That was why they were so calm.

When he thought of the scriptures, he felt a little indignant. From the looks of it, the scriptures he had studied would probably not be of any use. Didn't they see that a few white-haired old men had been eliminated? They had studied scriptures all their lives, but they did not seem to have any advantage in the test!

"Excuse me, please excuse me."

The crowd at the back suddenly surged. Someone had cut the queue and squeezed to the front.

Tang Jianqing heard the voice and looked over. Who was it? It was not like those who took the test first would be able to pass. Was there a need to cut the queue?

He looked at the person who had cut the queue, and his face quickly turned gloomy!

That person was dressed in white and had a black cape. He was handsome and elegant. Who else could it be but his arch-enemy, Shao Heyang?

Shao Heyang was originally at the back of the queue, but now he had squeezed to the front and was in the same batch as Tang Jianqing. It went without saying who he was after!

"Shao Heyang, you're really haunting me."

Tang Jianqing gritted his teeth in hatred. He was originally upset because of the test, but he did not expect his arch-enemy to come and cause trouble.

"Young Master Tang, your words are too rude. You and I are both participating in the Luo Gate test. Do I have to avoid you? Or are you that afraid of competing with me? "

Shao Heyang said with a smile. It was the kind of smile that hid a dagger in it. Everyone could hear the provocation in his tone.

He was not far behind Fang Shijie in the queue. Neither Gu Chen nor Fang Shijie bothered to turn around to look at him.

"I'm afraid of you? I'm just worried that you'll humiliate yourself, okay? "Tang Jianqing sneered, giving tit for tat.

"Oh? Since Young Master Tang is so confident, why don't we make a bet? "

Shao Heyang's eyes flickered as he suddenly suggested.

"Bet? What bet? I'm not in the mood for that! "Tang Jianqing frowned.

"I won't cheat you. I bet that I'll be the first to pass the test. If I succeed, you'll kneel in front of me and kowtow to me three times. How about that?"

Kneel and kowtow!

It was obvious that he was trying to humiliate Tang Jianqing. All the candidates looked at Shao Heyang in surprise.

Although the bet was a little vicious, he dared to say that he would be the first in this batch of candidates. Would he dare to do so without some strength?

Shao Heyang's confident words were heard even by the Luo Gate Elder who was not far away. He cast an interested gaze at Shao Heyang.

"What if you can't do it?"

Tang Jianqing was furious. Shao Heyang was not betting on his result. Instead, he was aiming for the first place. It was obvious that Shao Heyang did not take him seriously!

"If I can't do it, then I'll kneel to you, kowtow to you three times, and call you grandpa."

Shao Heyang's calm and collected demeanor allowed him to show off in front of everyone.

When Gu Chen heard this, he turned around. However, he did not look at Shao Heyang. Instead, he looked at Fang Shijie with a strange expression.

Isn't this like going to the toilet with a lantern? Is he courting death?

It seemed like someone was going to suffer a huge setback.
