Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 1203 - 713: House Arrest _2

The bottleneck in advancing to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment is now within reach.

Elder Master Xun did not go back on his word either, having provided Mo Hua with ten Second Grade Formation Paintings with Seventeen Patterns related to the Five Elements Eight Trigrams Array Formation in one go.

Calculated in terms of merit points, it is nearly four to five thousand.

Mo Hua was over the moon and felt even more grateful towards Elder Master Xun.

With such a rare opportunity, Mo Hua studied even more diligently.

Whenever Elder Master Xun was free, he would call Mo Hua over to instruct him on some Formation principles of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and to check on his proficiency in Formation practice.

With complete focus, Mo Hua not only learned quickly but also practiced very solidly.

Elder Master Xun did not say much, but he was frequently amazed inwardly.

Young in age, high in comprehension, extremely talented, and very hardworking.

Plus, every Formation, despite having only been studied for a day and practiced a few times, seemed as if it had been practiced ten more days after one night. His writing was as smooth as flowing clouds and streaming water, and his Formation Patterns were profound and thoroughly mastered.

He grasped concepts extremely fast, while his foundation was also exceptionally solid.

If he continues to study for a few decades or even a hundred years, when Mo Hua fully matures, and his cultivation increases, how profound will his Formation skills become...

Elder Master Xun hardly dared to imagine.

This is a disciple of Taixu Gate...

Elder Master Xun’s heart, having experienced the vicissitudes of hundreds of years and was normally as calm as a still well, now surged with emotion and brimmed with high hopes.

To Elder Master Xun’s eyes, Mo Hua, who painstakingly studied Formation, shone like an incomparable treasure from head to toe, even his pores glittered brightly.

Mo Hua himself had no other thoughts but to single-mindedly focus on learning Formation.

Every day was filled with cultivation, attending classes, and outside of class, it was learning Formation Diagrams and practicing Formation.

Once finished, he would go ask Elder Master Xun for more Formation Diagrams.

Although it was monotonous, Mo Hua was content with continuously having new Formations to learn.

Unable to leave the Qianxue State Boundary and unable to undertake rewards.

In the placid Sect life, the only thing that was not dull was the cohort of disciples who intentionally caused trouble because they were dissatisfied with him being the "Junior Brother."

Usually, Mo Hua couldn’t be bothered with them.

Like suddenly blocking the way, trying to provoke him with words to compete in this and that, where if he lost, he could no longer be the Junior Brother - those kinds of situations.

It was truly childish.

Mo Hua didn’t spare them a glance.

His time was precious, and he needed to devote his limited time into the limitless process of grasping Formations.

Besides, regardless of win or lose, he was still the Junior Brother; there was no need to compete with them, a waste of effort and thankless.

This is what Elder Master Xun said, being the Junior Brother requires displaying a demeanor and broad-mindedness that "overlooks all mountains."

Mo Hua silently agreed in his heart.

And as for Mo Hua, impassive to all sorts of provocation, the words entered his left ear and exited his right without affecting him in the least.

These disciples were helpless then.

They did not dare to speak too harshly to Mo Hua. This was considered insulting a fellow Sect member, and penalties would apply.

Nor did they dare to physically attack Mo Hua within the Sect.

It was strictly prohibited within the Sect for disciples to fiercely compete and privately battle each other.

Should they dare to make a move, Mo Hua would report them on the spot.

With Elder Master Xun administering justice, those disciples, every single one of them, would be in hot water.

The only other method was to make things difficult during the Formation class.

When Elder Master Xun was present, they did not dare to cause trouble for Mo Hua.

Nor would they dare when instructors were present.

Only when both Elder Master Xun and the instructors were absent and Mo Hua was helping with teaching or explaining some Primary Rank Second Grade Formations did they dare to show their faces and pick at him.

But these disciples forgot what Elder Master Xun had already declared:

When he was not present, or the instructor was not present, the entire Tao Teaching Room was under Mo Hua’s control.

Any troublemaker, Mo Hua would "privately retaliate," treating them differently on the spot, assigning them double the formation coursework.

If double wasn’t enough, then triple.

If they couldn’t complete the coursework, their Formation assessment would naturally receive a poor evaluation, which would affect their annual evaluations and further impact their status within their families.

The disciples were shocked.

Such behavior of Mo Hua, clearly an abuse of power, wielding power like a wild assertion, this was truly preposterous!

You are just a "Junior Brother," not an instructor, and certainly not an Elder, where did such authority come from?!

Thus, some disciples reported this matter to Elder Master Xun.

What shocked them even more was that Elder Master Xun actually condoned Mo Hua’s actions.

Using power for personal reasons, Mo Hua dares to do it, and critically, Elder Master Xun actually shields him.

This is simply unthinkable.

Not to mention that Mo Hua is supposedly from Loose Cultivator origins, even if he really were a direct grandson of some great ancestor, he probably wouldn’t have received such treatment.

With Elder Master Xun backing him, everyone else could only reluctantly accept it.

And Mo Hua was indeed a bit petty.

Anyone who showed themselves, provoked, or challenged him, although he didn’t regard them highly, he also silently noted them down in his little notebook.

Mo Hua also found that whoever troubled him were the ones who were poor in learning Formation.

Those disciples who were proficient in Formation, whenever Mo Hua casually mentioned some Formation principles, they would have an understanding and realize Mo Hua’s extraordinary Formation skills, not daring to act rashly.

Instead, it was those who were poor in their studies, the more ignorant they were, the more belligerent they became.

Because they were poor in studies, they could not recognize the gap and were blind to their own Formation prowess.

Feeling that everyone was of similar age, and Mo Hua even younger than them, and no matter how high Mo Hua’s skill in Formation could be, they didn’t consider Mo Hua highly.

As the proverb goes, "a gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a Formation learned without understanding its principles."

Upkeeping his role as the Junior Brother, Mo Hua secretly took care, being a bit stricter, made their assigned coursework harder and slightly more extensive.
