Complete Martial Arts Attributes novel - Chapter 1264

1264 Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array!

Every three months, the Angoro Grand Canyon would become a land of lightning. Bolts would fall from the sky and gather in the canyon, making the entire area an electrical forbidden zone.

However, the lightning wouldn’t exist forever; it would gradually dissipate after four or five days.

What Wang Teng wanted to do was seize that window of opportunity.

Two months and twenty seven days had passed since the previous lightning storm. This meant that he only had three to four days to set up the array.

!!
It was precisely because of the timing that Peggy made the suggestion.

However, three days was a bit… short!

Setting up a grandmaster-level rune array in three days was too hasty.

Still, there was no other way. They could only try their best to complete it.

Suppressing the dark apparitions with the help of rune arrays was definitely a huge advantage. They couldn’t just give up like that.

Being an elite squad, the Tiger Strike Force was well equipped and staffed. There were at least ten rune masters in their ranks.

The ten rune masters gathered in front of Wang Teng at the moment.

They already knew the reason why they were summoned. They would be tasked with setting up a fifth-rank grandmaster-level rune array to suppress the dark apparitions!

In all honesty, they found it hard to believe when they heard the decision.

Asking a group of rune masters to complete a fifth-rank grandmaster level rune array was a bit too much for them.

Even a first-rank grandmaster level array would be extremely difficult for them. Their success rate would be less than 10%.

Gorling and the others endured headaches the time Wang Teng and Gorlin set up the Thousand Thunder Annihilation Array, and it wasn’t even a grandmaster work.

Back then, Gorlin was about to reach the grandmaster level and was an accomplished individual overall.

In the end, it was barely completed by gathering the power of all the rune masters from the Xingwu Continent.

Of course, Wang Teng helped out a lot.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been that simple.

Sending ten rune masters to complete a fifth-rank grandmaster level array was a joke.

It didn’t even matter if they had grown up in the universe and had great accomplishments in their fields, being better than Gorlin and the others.

A master and a grandmaster were worlds apart.

Jira and the others didn’t know the difference between those ranks. They even thought that tasking those ten rune masters to complete a fifth-rank grandmaster-level rune array was valid.

However, those experts were well aware of their capabilities.

They really couldn’t do something like that!

The rune masters were silenced by exasperation.

They were still a bit timid when facing their new commander.

Moreover, it was their first mission with him. If they said no, it was equivalent to slapping his face.

Wang Teng wouldn’t beat them to their deaths, would he?

Wang Teng looked around and said, “The purpose of bringing everyone here is to set up the Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array!”

Such an array was one of the few of the lighting kind he had just found in the Secondary Career Alliance.

The array was able to condense the power of lightning and turn into thousands of lightning swords before raining down on their enemies.

That kind of power was simply terrifying.

In terms of attack power, the array was placed first amongst the fifth-rank grandmaster level rankings.

When Wang Teng did things, he would always do his best; otherwise, he wouldn’t even act.

That was why he chose the Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array without any hesitation.

“What? Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array!”

The rune masters were astonished when they heard the name.

Although they hadn’t seen it before, they had heard that it was one of the most difficult among arrays of fifth-rank grandmaster level.

They mainly knew about it because of its reputation.

Wang Teng actually wanted to set up such a complicated rune array.

They suddenly wanted to cry.

Too difficult!

It’s too difficult!

Those who were clueless were the terrifying ones.

They really wanted to complain but they didn’t dare to when they saw Wang Teng’s calm face.

This new commander was quite fierce!

Only one of the rune masters showed a different expression. He was a little anxious. He took a step back and hid behind the group, as if trying to avoid Wang Teng’s sight.

The latter glanced over and saw him, then frowned. “That rune master over there, have we met somewhere before?”

The alluded trembled all over and stood up awkwardly with a bitter face. “Grandmaster Wang Teng.”

“Grandmaster Wang Teng!?”

The other rune masters looked at Wang Teng in astonishment. They then looked at the rune master who spoke.

Isn’t he the commander? Why is he now a grandmaster?

Everyone was confused. They hadn’t realized what was going on.

Is Master too nervous that he spoke wrongly?

He’s so young. How’s it possible that he’s a grandmaster?

“So it was you,” Wang Teng said.

That was the rune master he had met when he first went to the Great Qian Planet to participate in the grandmaster level assessment of the Secondary Career Alliance.

Moreover, he had a little feud with Master Fan Taining and wanted to give him some trouble when he learned that Wang Teng was brought over by his rival.

Turns out he targeted the wrong person.

Later, he immediately packed his things and ran when he heard that Wang Teng had passed three grandmaster assessments, fearing that Wang Teng would make life difficult for him.

As reality would have it, Wang Teng had already forgotten about him. He wouldn’t bother about a mere rune master.

Meanwhile, Master Pittman arrived at the No. 29 Defense Planet after leaving the Great Qian Planet and even joined the Tiger Strike Force as a rune master.

Although the region was dangerous, he was treated better when compared to other places.

Pittman was also ambitious. He was hoping to gain some accomplishments so he could reach the grandmaster level sooner.

If he attained his goal, Wang Teng would be unable to move against him, even if he returned to the Great Qian Planet.

If both were grandmasters, the Secondary Career Alliance would also provide him with enough protection and he would have the confidence to stand in front of Wang Teng.

Who would have thought that he would still bump into the fellow after going to such a remote place.

He wasn’t a grandmaster yet!

It wasn’t enough.

His heart sank the moment Wang Teng recognized him. He was finished. Wang Teng still had the upper hand on the Defense Planet No. 29.

Being the commander of the Tiger Strike Force, Wang Teng had ways to deal with him.

“Master Pittman seems to be afraid of me?” Wang Teng smiled lightly.

“No, no.” Cold sweat broke out on Pittman’s forehead.

“All right. I won’t give you any trouble for such a trivial matter.” Wang Teng shook his head and didn’t bother about him. “If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, please speak freely.”

Pittman heaved a sigh of relief, although he still felt a little bitter.

He was thinking too much.

He was the clown.

Grandmaster Wang Teng didn’t even care about him.

Everyone exchanged glances when they heard Wang Teng’s words.

“Commander, are you really a grandmaster?” a rune master asked.

“That’s right. I’ll be the main person setting up the array. All of you will be supporting me.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Gasp!”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Good, good!

They would just be there for support.

Although Wang Teng’s identity shocked them, it was still a good thing to have a grandmaster present.

Otherwise, they would really be embarrassed later.

Huo Qiya and the others realized they had the wrong impression when overhearing the conversation between Wang Teng and the rune masters.

A fifth-rank grandmaster level array wasn’t that easy to complete.

Even if ten rune masters joined forces, it would be useless.

They were very fortunate since Wang Teng was a grandmaster.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t even know where to start to set it up.

There was only one grandmaster on Defense Planet No. 29. He was stationed at the main base and it was impossible for him to offer help.

Peggy was also a little surprised. Although she checked the information in advance and knew that the fifth-rank grandmaster level rune array could accommodate the lightning storm’s power, she didn’t know how difficult it was to prepare.

Her idea would have been just empty talk without Wang Teng present.

“All right, that is all. Everyone will follow me to scout the terrain and prepare to set up the rune array,” Wang Teng ordered.

“Roger!” the ten rune masters quickly responded.

Regardless of whether Wang Teng was the Tiger Strike Force’s commander or a grandmaster, none of the rune masters dared to show the slightest neglect.

“Commander, do you need us to tag along?” Deputy Jira asked worriedly.

To reach the canyon, Wang Teng’s group would have to pass by the 13th frontline. They would be surrounded by dark apparitions if discovered.

“No. It’s easier for me to tackle them on my own. Movement will be affected if there’s too many people,” Wang Teng said, “And I need all of you here to take charge. There cannot be any problems.”

“Understood.” Huo Qiya and the others nodded.

Wang Teng stopped there and led the rune masters quietly as they lurked towards the Angoro Grand Canyon.

In the eyes of Huo Qiya and the others, Wang Teng seemed to have disappeared completely. Even his aura was concealed; they couldn’t detect his position, at all.

“Erm…”

They looked at each other with eyes full of shock.

They were worried about Wang Teng’s safety for nothing. Given his capabilities, he could freely come and go as he wished.

Wang Teng on the other hand didn’t know what they were thinking. He was already in the middle of the Angoro Grand Canyon with the rune masters.

He completely concealed the group’s collective aura to avoid being detected by the dark apparitions.

There were many low-rank dark apparitions in the canyon, but they weren’t a threat to them.

Wang Teng didn’t kill them, merely ordering the rune masters to avoid them and complete their respective tasks, letting sleeping dogs lie.

After some observation, everyone chose a suitable place and immediately began setting up the array.

Wang Teng was responsible for the array’s core while the rest were in charge of the inscriptions on the edge. It wasn’t a difficult thing for them.

On top of that, their leader would take some time to check on their progress and sometimes point out their mistakes, which greatly reduced the difficulty.

The rune masters felt greatly benefited by the experience. It was rare for them to receive pointers from a grandmaster; most of them were just ordinary rune masters without any background, never encountering grandmasters in their daily lives.

It was all thanks to the Tiger Strike Force that they were able to receive guidance from an expert.

Pittman felt bitter when he finally ascertained the gap between himself and Wang Teng.

When it came to runes, the best would take the lead.

Wang Teng was young, but his level of attainment was beyond reach.

The bitter rune master felt that even if he could rise and become a grandmaster himself, he could never be up to par.

Pittman finally believed that Wang Teng wouldn’t give him any trouble.

He might not even have entered Wang Teng’s mind. How could the fellow even think of making trouble for him?

Three days passed in the midst of such intensive preparations.
