The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop-Chapter 62 - 5: Heaven’s Chosen One

"Candidate number thirty-eight, eliminated," the chief examiner said expressionlessly.

The crowd, however, burst into laughter seeing a cultivator being afraid of ghosts, especially those imagined by his own mind.

The Heavenly Mechanism Maze has a certain hallucinatory effect on those with weak and uncertain hearts. The more you fear, the more terrifying the imagined things become.

This announcement in the Mist Array made many people alert, and everyone focused their minds to find a way to break the formation.

But without any hints and directions, how can one break the array? Furthermore, the array seems to have no boundaries; so many people were inside, yet they received no response when they called out, their voices lost in the vast white fog.

"Clang!" A bell rang, marking the passing of a quarter of the time.

Meanwhile, several candidates had given up and sat at the entrance, dejected.

Kong Hou had brewed some fruit tea she newly learned for Tianmiao and brought over a low table. On the table were seeds, preserved fruits, and some fresh fruits. Tianmiao sat in the rocking chair, cracking seeds while casually watching the disciples scrambling through the maze in the Heavenly Mechanism Mirror.

Before the second bell rang, a person appeared early at the exit; it was the handsome man with curly hair. He seemed unconcerned and walked straight to the next challenge.

Everyone in the square simultaneously gaped. Less than half an hour? This speed is no slower than Ye Chenfeng’s speed in breaking the array in the past! His methods had shocked the entire Canglang Sect, and they are still being used today, making his name as a prodigy known to all. And this person matches Ye Chenfeng’s perception!

"Quick, inform the Sect Leader! What’s the name of candidate number five, find it out for me!" The chief examiner stood up suddenly, excitement evident on his face. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Already done, already done. This candidate is Jie Wenzhan, twenty years old," the deputy examiner answered, wiping his sweat.

"Good! Good indeed!" the chief examiner praised repeatedly and specially opened a mirror showing only Jie Wenzhan’s figure. His heart was exceedingly stirred; eight formations, four levels, is there a possibility... a possibility of surpassing Ye Chenfeng?

The third bell rang, and several candidates appeared at the exit in succession, all looking exhausted. The Canglang Sect’s assessment has always been dubbed the infernal mode by various sects, none of its challenges are simple, even this first one is enough to leave one drained, not an exaggeration at all.

Meanwhile, Jie Wenzhan had already cleared the second level - the Bright Path.

This is true talent, no doubt, everyone sighed in admiration.

The Sect Leader also arrived at this time, joining the crowd to watch this exceptionally talented man breaking the array.

Yang Shirui was also unblinkingly watching the mirror, looking at that distinct figure, so unique from the first sight, that even when Ye Chenfeng arrived, she hadn’t noticed.

Ye Chenfeng was brought along by the Sect Leader, who mentioned that a prodigy had emerged in this examination comparable to him.

He stood quietly behind the Sect Leader, still resplendent, with an aloof demeanor contrasting with the excitement of those around. His expression remained indifferent.

"Greetings Sect Leader! Greetings Senior Brother!" the disciples saluted before continuing to watch; the platform had many mirrors for viewing, yet the one with Jie Wenzhan had a crowd tightly packed around it.

Yang Shirui was snapped back to reality by the noise of the crowd. She turned to see Ye Chenfeng not far away, his handsome visage and frosty demeanor, which she had never tired of before, seemed somewhat dull today. She turned back and continued watching the mirror.
