Chapter 1420: Truly Extraordinary Strength

After noticing the expressions of Lianyin and the others, Wang Jianqiang smiled faintly, "Just some minor tricks, not worth mentioning."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Lianyin and the others snapped back to reality.

Lianyin looked at Wang Jianqiang and couldn't help but ask, "You are a Seventh-Rank Array Master? When did you cultivate the Array Dao?"

Wang Jianqiang waved his hand with a chuckle, "I learned some array knowledge during my spare time while cultivating; it is just a slight understanding, not worth mentioning."

Learned some during spare time?

Upon hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, it wasn't just Lianyin who was stunned.

Although Wang Jianqiang did not directly admit it.

But judging by the meaning in his words...

It was clearly a tacit admission.

Jiayue, Biyan'er, Lie Kong, and even Mingchen, who was eavesdropping while recovering from his injuries, were all stunned.

The complexity of the Array Dao is enough to rival the Alchemist path.

Many geniuses who specialize in the Array Dao find it difficult to become a Seventh-Rank Array Master in their entire lives.

This guy became a Seventh-Rank Array Master just by studying it in his spare time?

If those Array Masters heard this, wouldn't they be angered to death?

Pfft!

On the square within the Jade Clam Clan.

Among the many guests.

After hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, many people's expressions turned ugly, and some even had blood spilling from the corners of their mouths.

"Arrogant brat!"

Someone couldn't help but shout in anger.

This person was a Seventh-Rank Alchemist and had some reputation in this Sea Region.

Since childhood, he had been hailed as a prodigy of the Array Dao.

Now, at over three thousand years old, his attainments in the Array Dao had only just reached the Seventh-Rank.

This Tianyu actually spoke such wild words.

Isn't he saying that Array Dao Cultivators like him are all trash?

"Hmph, a young man who had some luck and became a Seventh-Rank Array Master, yet dares to be so arrogant!"

"With such a temperament, I dare say his path of cultivation will certainly not go far!"

After the Seventh-Rank Array Master's voice fell, another old man snorted coldly.

The old man was a Black-Armored Turtle Clan Cultivator and a Seventh-Rank Senior Array Master.

An Array Master of this level already held a very high status, and even the Clan Leader of a top-tier clan would not dare to treat them lightly.

After his voice fell.

Sounds of dissatisfaction rang out one after another.

All those who spoke were Array Masters.

With so many Array Masters speaking at once, involving over a dozen clans, it was not easy for Mingyan to directly retort to them all.

However, if she left it ignored, wouldn't it make people think the Mermaid Clan was afraid?

She pondered for a moment and said faintly in a measured tone, "Fellow Daoist friends, perhaps my clan's Tianyu's words were indeed somewhat inappropriate, but his Array Dao cultivation is genuine."

Hearing Mingyan's reminder, the expressions of the Alchemists faltered, and some were left speechless.

Although Mingyan did not continue speaking.

The meaning was already very clear.

That is...

Although Tianyu spoke arrogantly, he is a genuine Seventh-Rank Array Master, far stronger than everyone present at the same age.

You are not qualified to judge him.

Although everyone wanted to retort.

In the end, no one had the face to say it.

Because it is a fact that they are inferior to Tianyu.

But precisely because it is a fact, although their mouths were blocked, they were even angrier inside.

Seeing this, Mingyan withdrew her gaze calmly.

She sneered in her heart.

She did not care about Tianyu's life or death, no...

She wished Tianyu would be killed immediately; the only reason she helped Tianyu speak was simply to maintain the face of the Mermaid Clan.

This bastard Tianyu does not know how to restrain himself and recklessly makes enemies.

It would be best if he were killed as soon as he left the Secret Realm.

That way, she would be liberated.

In the Secret Realm.

After hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, it took a long while for Lianyin and the others to snap back to reality.

Lie Kong looked at Wang Jianqiang, a sense of terror rising in his heart.

This guy is too terrifying; he is simply capable of everything.

If he were to grow up, how terrifying would he be?

By then, I fear even the strongest of the Sea Giant clan won't be able to suppress him, right?

After the initial shock, Mingchen's eyes had already turned red.

He had investigated Tianyu before, and he was very clear that Tianyu was absolutely not an Array Master in the past, and had not even come into contact with the Array Path.

It must be because of that great fortuitous encounter he had in the Treasure Land!

Every heaven-gifted talent is endowed with great destiny.

The stronger the destiny, the greater the chance of encountering fortuitous opportunities.

He is the Mermaid Prince, the publicly acknowledged heaven-gifted talent of the Mermaid Clan.

If not for Tianyu snatching it first, perhaps that great fortuitous encounter would have been his!

Damn it!

Such an astonishing fortuitous encounter was actually snatched away first by a piece of trash like Tianyu.

Tianyu actually dared to snatch his fortuitous encounter!

He really deserves to die!

Wang Jianqiang inexplicably felt a chill and subconsciously glanced at Mingchen.

Noticing the jealousy in Mingchen's eyes, he immediately understood.

He sighed inwardly.

A wave of emotion stirred in his heart.

Geniuses are always envied like this.

There is no helping it.

This is probably the price of being too perfect.

……

With the Concealment Array.

Wang Jianqiang and the others did not need to use their own power to hide their figures; they all sat cross-legged in mid-air at will, closing their eyes to regulate their breathing.

They prepared to face the upcoming battle in their best state.

When the time reached the sixtieth day of the start of the contention battle.

Wang Jianqiang, who was sitting cross-legged in the Concealment Array, suddenly opened his eyes.

A wisp of golden luster flashed across his eyes.

His line of sight instantly stretched into the distance.

Eleven figures appeared in his field of vision.

He stood up, and a faint arc appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"The first wave of prey has arrived."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Lianyin and the others nearby were all taken aback.

They subconsciously released their Spirit Sense, but did not detect the slightest aura, and looks of bewilderment flashed across their faces.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "It is this person's team."

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a Spirit Light exploded in front of him.

Countless points of light gathered in mid-air, transforming into a lifelike woman.

"Shan Qingqing, it's her team!"

Seeing the woman Wang Jianqiang had conjured with Spiritual Power, Biyan'er raised her eyebrows, "Aside from Beina, she is the race contestant most favored by the Jade Clam Clan."

"Her lineage has impressive connections, second only to the Clan Leader's lineage, and since she is the only one from her lineage to become a Saintess Candidate, she will certainly receive the full support of that lineage; the team's strength should not be weak."

"We must be careful."

Wang Jianqiang looked into the distance, Golden Light surging within his pupils.

He could clearly see a team rapidly approaching from afar, and he could also see the woman of extraordinary appearance at the very front of the team.

His gaze moved downward slightly, without a change in expression.

"Tsk tsk, magnificent and imposing; she is indeed formidable."
