The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

The monthly accommodation fee at Canyun Inn is not cheap, costing 20,000 medium-grade spirit stones for two people. However, with the spiritual energy supply from the sixth-level spirit vein and some spiritual fruits delivered every night, it is not too expensive.

After all, if they want to rent a special cave for cultivation, the price will only be higher, and they may not be able to rent a cave for cultivation with a sixth-level spiritual vein.

After handing over the spirit stones, the two went to the registration office to register.

The registration office is a magnificent circular building. It is not tall, with only two floors, but it covers a large area of ​​tens of thousands of acres.

This building will only be opened before the formation master competition and will not be used at other times.

After learning this, Zhang Chentian was also impressed by the Yuan family's wealth. They were willing to spend so many resources to build such a building just for others to sign up.

"Chentian, the circular building at the registration office was not built by the Yuan family alone, but was jointly built by the Formation Master Guild and the Yuan family. The expenses were also shared by the two families. Without the support of the Formation Master Guild, the Yuan family would not have such a great influence even if it was the number one formation family in the Beili Domain." Zhou Qi explained to Zhang Chentian.

Although he was only a fifth-rank mid-grade formation master, he was very knowledgeable about these things because he had served as the branch president for many years.

"I see. But why doesn't the Formation Master Guild hold the Formation Master Competition itself, but instead gives this huge benefit to the Yuan family?" Zhang Chentian frowned and asked in confusion.

Hearing Zhang Chentian's question, Zhou Qi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile, and said slowly:

"There are two main reasons for this. First, the status of the Formation Master Guild on the continent is unmatched; they possess irreplaceable authority and influence.

Moreover, the Formation Master Guild is not short of wealth. Apart from Tianya Pavilion and the Alchemist Guild, even the major holy places can hardly compare with it. Therefore, they do not have much interest or necessity in holding events such as the Formation Master Competition.

Secondly, the Yuan family was once one of the core families of the Formation Master Guild long ago. Although they later separated for unknown reasons, the two sides still maintain a certain connection and connection. Therefore, the Formation Master Guild's choice to support the Yuan family in hosting the Northern Li Territory Competition is also a way to continue and maintain this past relationship.

"I understand." Zhang Chentian nodded. He finally understood the reason.

It seems that the reason why the Formation Master Guild gave the opportunity to host the Formation Master Competition to the Yuan family was not out of consideration of interests, but more based on historical origins and its own status.

"Let's go and sign up for the Formation Master Competition!" Zhang Chentian said with a smile, his eyes flashing with confidence.

"Brother, have you heard? This formation master competition is different from previous competitions." A young man in a long robe and wearing a fifth-grade top-grade formation master badge said to the person next to him.

There was a hint of mystery and anticipation on his face, as if he knew some secret that others did not know.

"Oh? What's the difference?" The man was also interested and asked eagerly.

He stared at the young man, hoping to get more information from him.

When the people around heard their conversation, they came over curiously.

Everyone is curious about this formation master competition and wants to know what the differences are.

"Ahem, in this competition, as long as the participating contestants are sixth-level mid-grade or above formation masters, they can directly enter the top 64 and will not participate in the previous competitions." The young man cleared his throat and then spoke loudly.

His voice reached everyone's ears clearly, causing a sensation.

"What! How could this happen! This is so unfair!" Someone couldn't help but complain.

He believed that this rule gave powerful formation masters too much of an advantage and was too unfair to other contestants.

However, another person expressed understanding: "I feel that this arrangement is not bad. At least we won't encounter those monsters and be eliminated early, without even having a sense of participation."

"There are indeed such cases. For example, in the last session, there was a sixth-rank low-grade formation master who was eliminated in the first round due to bad luck." After thinking for a moment, the woman expressed her opinion.

She felt that such rules could ensure the excitement of the competition, while also giving ordinary formation masters more opportunities to show themselves.

"Fairy Li is right. I think this is a good idea too. After all, in all the previous competitions, there were only thirty-one sixth-rank mid-grade formation masters at most. We have no chance of winning against these people." Another young man in the crowd spoke up.

For a moment, people were discussing the new rules, expressing their opinions. Some supported the new rules, believing they would increase fairness in the competition; others opposed them, feeling that they were unfair to the lower-level formation masters. The entire scene became extremely lively, filled with various opinions and disputes.

……

"Chentian, do you have any ideas?" Zhou Qi asked Zhang Chentian.

"In that case, I plan to obtain the sixth-level top-grade formation master badge first, and skip the previous competition directly." Zhang Chentian said after careful consideration.

He was well aware of his own strength. If he participated in the competition according to the normal process, it might take up a lot of time and energy. However, directly obtaining the sixth-level top-grade formation master level badge could save him a lot of time and allow him to prepare more focused on subsequent challenges.

"Well, it's really a waste of time for you to participate in those knockout rounds and challenge matches. Simply avoiding these battles can at least give you two more months to prepare. In this way, you will have three months to prepare." Zhou Qi nodded with a smile on his face.

"I think so too." Zhang Chentian responded with a smile.

For Zhang Chentian, three months is equivalent to nine hundred days, which is about two and a half years in the real world.

During this period of time, he might be able to practice the Black Tortoise Breathing Technique to perfection, so that even if he encounters people from the holy land, he will not be discovered. After all, they can't send out powerful saints for him.

"Teacher, you go back to the inn first. I can go to the Formation Master Guild to take the assessment by myself." Zhang Chentian looked at Zhou Qi and said.

"Okay, then I'll go back to the inn to rest. You should also be careful and try not to have a conflict with Zhou Chang. After all, his father is a seventh-level low-grade formation master." Zhou Qi reminded.

"I understand." Zhang Chentian secretly sighed at Zhou Qi's concession.

However, he also understood that the reason why Zhou Qi was like this was because the gap in strength was too great.

But, he is not Zhou Qi.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chentian walked straight towards the Formation Master Guild.

His current formation master badge is only of the fifth-level mid-grade. It’s not that Zhou Qi doesn’t want to give him a higher-level one, but this is already the limit of his ability.

Although Zhou Qi is very good to Zhang Chentian, his strength is still limited.

That's why Zhang Chentian thought of going to the Formation Master Guild to upgrade his badge level.
