After regaining calm, one of them said hoarsely, "We don’t know how many layers this Compound Formation has. If there are more than seven layers, we’ll really pay the price here!"
"Exactly!"
By the end, their expressions were terrifyingly sullen.
At this moment, they truly regretted being the first to step forward before...
If they hadn’t volunteered earlier, they wouldn’t be so passive and embarrassed now...
"Alright, there’s no point in regretting now; let’s focus on breaking the array!"
"Agreed!"
There’s no medicine for regret in this world; they knew this, so they understood that regret is useless now. Since that’s the case, they might as well find a way to break this formation!
"I don’t believe it has more than three layers!"
Mumbling this to himself, they continued attempting to break the array...
...
"What’s up with these two? Why are they still standing there? Didn’t they just break through the array that Hu Xiaobei set?"
"Yeah! Their behavior is super strange! It’s as if they haven’t broken the formation at all!"
As they continued breaking the array, everyone was whispering like this...
At this point, their curiosity peaked.
Because the two’s performance was exceedingly abnormal...
Logically, after breaking the array, they should immediately charge madly toward Hu Xiaobei, since he was the main culprit; they should really be grinding their teeth in hatred...
However, they did not do so; instead, they continued to stand dumbfoundedly in place, which really made no sense.
Upon hearing their astounded murmurings, a middle-aged man with a square face squinted his eyes and soon muttered hoarsely, "Compound Formation! Those two are in a Compound Formation now! That’s why they can’t see where Hu Xiaobei is!"
His voice was not loud, and under normal circumstances, would barely be heard.
But now, everyone was intently watching them, making his words very clear to everyone.
Thus, everyone instantly turned their heads to look at him...
Soon, everyone spoke up, "Uncle, what did you just say? Compound Formation?"
Before speaking, they silently repeated the term Compound Formation dozens of times, but they had no impression of it at all, hence their curiosity prompted them to speak...
At this moment, they all behaved quite respectfully because they knew this person held a high status within the family...
The Valley of the Wicked had many talents, and the man named Gu An was definitely considered one of them, even outstanding among them...
At only eighteen, he had reached the Array Heart Clarity realm...
After achieving this, Gu An left the family to travel.
During his journey, Gu An met a girl who died in a danger due to him.
Gu An always felt guilty about this...
He believed that she wouldn’t have died if not for him...
After returning to the family, Gu An never got over it, eventually completely shutting himself off...
This isolation worried the family...
So before, many family members tried to persuade him, but the attempts were meaningless, for he couldn’t move past it...
For many years, Gu An remained hidden in the family, kept to himself, yet everyone still respected him, knowing his former glory...
Upon hearing their respectful inquiry, Gu An gently waved his hand, saying, "Don’t call me uncle; I’m just a sinner now!"
Especially the so-called Brother Su, whose face was really slapped swollen now.
Previously, he vowed that Hu Xiaobei would soon be taught a lesson, but in the end, it was his own two subordinates who were taught a lesson!
"Embarrassing, so embarrassing, these two really embarrass me!"
Insanely cursing under his breath, he grimly turned to look at the others, and at that moment, he noticed their expressions were equally grim...
Coughing once, he hoarsely said, "Useless, these two are truly useless!"
Upon hearing such cold rebuke, they sheepishly murmured, "Brother Su, you can’t say that; this opponent is really quite formidable!"
"Yeah, wouldn’t have thought anyone here could master a Compound Formation!"
"Yes, indeed!"
As they spoke, they turned their heads, gazing poignantly at Hu Xiaobei...
At this moment, Hu Xiaobei truly overwhelmed them...
Because the Compound Formation he had set was challenging even for them to break.
They truly understood Compound Formations...
And it is due to their understanding that they were so shaken, never imagining encountering someone who mastered a Compound Formation in such a barbaric land...
Listening to them elevate others’ prestige and diminish their own, he sneered coldly, dismissing...
"Compound Formation? This is some crappy Compound Formation! I reckon it’s just a basic one, with only two or three layers at most! Those two fools couldn’t break it because they were scared stiff!"
He knew better than others the power and difficulty of Compound Formations...
So he didn’t believe at all that Hu Xiaobei could master an advanced Compound Formation...
In his view, Hu Xiaobei must have had dumb luck, picking up a little surface knowledge...
