Chapter 1700: Chapter 1700: Her Performance Was Absolutely Astonishing

"Yes, I think she’s about to succeed, just hold on a little longer," Kang Qingyuan echoed.

"No, the issue of the fiefdom can wait; stopping the array is more important," Ye Yi’an said anxiously, unable to resist moving forward.

"Lord Mu, have you forgotten? According to the temple’s rules, no one can intervene unless the person being assessed gives up voluntarily," Wen Rongsong said coldly, noticing Ye Yi’an’s intentions.

Kang Qingyuan and Liang Gusong also darkened their expressions, with a hint of murderous intent in their eyes.

Ye Yi’an paused slightly. The priesthood assessment is not only a test of divine sense but also of willpower. To become an excellent priest, both are indispensable. The temple indeed has such a rule: once the assessment begins, unless the person themselves gives up, no one else is allowed to interfere.

Seeing the flash of murderous intent in Wen Rongsong’s and others’ eyes, Ye Yi’an realized they were actually hoping for Mu Han Yan to die in the array. How could they take the initiative to stop the array?

If he were to force himself to intervene, leaving aside whether he understands the principles of the array enough to stop it, Wen Rongsong and others would definitely not give him the chance. Even though he was once a Ninth-level Divine Priest, no less than Wen Rongsong and others, he is old and weak, and no match for them.

But, can he just watch Mu Han Yan die in the array? For a moment, Ye Yi’an was extremely anxious.

"No, we must stop it right away, or she will surely die!" Sikong Qinglan said anxiously.

He already knew what Wen Rongsong and the others were up to. If it were someone else, he wouldn’t bother. But Mu Han Yan’s looks and charm were so similar to that person. Before confirming whether she was that person, he couldn’t let her die.

As he spoke, Sikong Qinglan made hand gestures. He was a Prayer Priest of Huayu Temple and knew how to activate the Gathering Spirit Array.

"Priest Sikong, don’t forget your position. Affairs of our Feng City Temple are not for you to meddle in!" Wen Rongsong finally shouted in anger upon seeing Sikong Qinglan’s actions.

Sikong Qinglan’s movements halted. Indeed, he was a priest of Huayu Temple and had no right to involve himself in Feng City Temple’s matters. Besides, he was there with a request. And most importantly, seeing Wen Rongsong and the others, how could they possibly give him the opportunity to intervene?

The atmosphere in the hall became exceptionally tense.

"Boom!" At this moment, a loud noise came.

Streams of air surged, and the array that trapped Mu Han Yan shattered violently. Even the ground with engraved array patterns was filled with cracks, and stone fragments flew like rain.

"What’s wrong with you all?" Mu Han Yan still stood at her original spot, looking at the confrontational people around with confusion.

"You... you..." Wen Rongsong, Kang Qingyuan, and Liang Gubai were all speechless, staring at Mu Han Yan in a daze.

Not just them, even Ye Yi’an and Sikong Qinglan were equally stunned.

The array was broken! Though many became priests by breaking arrays through the ages, this way of breaking an array was unheard of. How did she manage?

Among everyone, perhaps only Ling Baobao remained unfazed, as if this scene was the most ordinary. Although he was the first to inquire earlier, he wasn’t worried at all, merely curious. His blind trust in Lady Mu assured he wouldn’t be concerned for her.

It wasn’t just a burst array; even if the entire Feng City Temple exploded, he wouldn’t be surprised.

"Hmm, this array seems to have some issues, breaking on its own out of nowhere?" Mu Han Yan circled the spot where the array was, looking left and right, scratching her head with a puzzled look.

Seeing the stunned expressions around, she knew she had done something extraordinary.

Originally, she just wanted to try and comprehend the array principles of the Divine Continent. But gradually, she discovered that the arrays of the Divine Continent and the Holy Court Continent had many similarities. By further scrutinizing them, she realized that due to the vastly different Power of Laws, the arrays of the two continents took different extremes, yet their essence was the same.

If it were someone else, knowing this might be meaningless. But Mu Han Yan was different. Back in the Holy Court Continent, her achievements in arrays had already amazed the Array Masters at Long Yan Academy, and her understanding of the Law far exceeded cultivators of the same rank.

So, accustomed to making connections, Lady Mu began deducing in her mind, hoping to integrate the arrays of the two continents. However, she was only in the Divine Continent for a few days, understanding little of its laws and array formations. It was all just her wishful thinking.

Still, during this deduction, Lady Mu surprisingly found that with her strong divine sense, she seemed able to barely harness the Power of Laws within the array.

This discovery, of course, made Lady Mu extremely delighted. Though she couldn’t change the array, if she could harness the Power of Laws within it, wouldn’t it be another life-saving skill?

The discovery excited Lady Mu to the point of blood boiling, her entire body slightly trembling. Yes, just like Ye Yi’an was frightened and Kang Qingyuan and others were secretly amused, her face turned red, and her body slightly trembled.

Continuously deducing, Lady Mu subconsciously operated her divine sense, leading to the scene that left everyone astounded.

However, the secret within can’t be revealed to outsiders, so she had to make up a random excuse.

"This array is probably faulty due to years of disrepair," Ye Yi’an quickly responded. Given the array’s shattered state, Mu Han Yan must have done something, so he echoed the explanation.

"Oh, probably," Wen Rongsong and the others replied instinctively, snapping back to reality.

Though it seemed unbelievable, they found no other plausible explanation for the array that had existed for hundreds of thousands of years. Even they couldn’t possibly destroy it without a trace, let alone a mere Mu Han Yan. It must have broken down due to disrepair.

"Gentlemen, since Han Yan has passed the assessment, let’s allow Ling Baobao to try next," Ye Yi’an seized the opportunity to suggest.

"Wait, as you said earlier, the array is faulty due to disrepair, so Mu Han Yan cannot be considered as having passed the assessment," Kang Qingyuan argued.
