Chapter 488: Chapter 326 Focus! Resonance! Patterns! Successfully Misleading Everyone! [Vote for Monthly Pass!]_2


If there are any gains during these six days, with a sharp increase in power, the hope of struggling for the ’Twelve Strong’ on the last day will greatly increase.


No doubt about it!


If you don’t take this gamble, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life!


Thus, Sun Gui Fen, Zhang Qin, and others sat around the Hai Character Arena, focusing intently on observing the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], with no intention to attack the arena.


They are those who have already resonated with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].


This is a rare few.


More are those who haven’t resonated yet—


"Only by stepping onto the stage and getting closer to the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] can there be hope for resonance!"


"Must first step onto the stage!"


Some have summarized the rule of ’Resonance’, for instance, Sun Gui Fen, Zhang Qin, and these others, all resonated by getting closer to the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] during the process of attacking the arena.


Therefore, these people also gathered in front of the Hai Character Arena, while observing and comprehending the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map] from a distance, they also participated in the drawing lots, hoping to draw a chance to step onto the stage. Whether they succeed in attacking the arena doesn’t matter; the main goal is to get closer to the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] and to resonate.


With this mindset, many teams surged in, gathering below the stage.


Fortunately, these people kept their reason, still wary of ’Evil Qi’, ’Demon Barrier’, and thinking to preserve their state, they didn’t dare to stay long in the arena zone. Once they tolerated to the limit, they would rotate, have teammates awaken them, lead them out, replace them, and rest.


Thus, there were fewer who went insane.


They could calmly comprehend the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map], without affecting their state.


The more teams attracted by the [Jiangguan Rainy Mist Map], the less pressure on the Hai Character Arena. Too many lower and mid-lower teams greatly reduced the chance for strong teams to attack the arena, making Yan Chuan and Wang Zhengyi face mostly weak teams that could be destroyed with a flip of a hand, without spending much energy.


"Really?"


"So easy?"


Wang Zhengyi was suspicious and confused.


But Yan Chuan was in complete control.


Sometimes, when tired of fighting, he’d pick one from the first rank weak team, imparting ’Experience’ to make them enter ’Absolute Focus’ state to concentrate on comprehending the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], ignoring outside matters, passing two hours comfortably, allowing him and Wang Zhengyi to have a good rest.


When encountering experts of the "Hidden Dragon," "Chufeng" two lists level, he would mostly use the same technique, occasionally letting one or two through, for him and Wang Zhengyi to deal with, just putting on a show.


As you wish!


Yan Chuan picked people, first based on state, second on mood.


But not entirely as you wish; Yan Chuan was cautious, with hidden tricks and little designs and a bit of nasty fun—


...


Above the clouds.


The Innate Grandmasters watched those people parading on the Hai Character Arena and those who resonated with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele]—


Strong and weak!


Men and women!


Beautiful and ugly!


Old and young!


They were of various kinds.


But these people had two common points—


"One is age!"


"The other is gender!"


Tian Jing had an inspiration, finally discovering the pattern: "Pay attention, those who can resonate with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] start from Sun Gui Fen, twenty-eight years old. Cai Xiong, twenty-seven years old. Zhang Xuan, twenty-six years old. Zhou Shengfu, twenty-five years old, Zhang Qin, twenty-four years old. He Wang, twenty-three years old. Gao Siwa, twenty-two years old. Zhu Chenglin, twenty-one years old. Then to Song Nu again, twenty-two years old, and the age continues to climb, stopping at twenty-eight."


Tian Jing, in charge of the Traveler Department, arranged the "Hidden Dragon," "Chufeng" two lists, was most familiar with the ages of these participants.


At this moment, he pointed out, and everyone realized: "That’s it! The age ranges from twenty-eight to twenty-one, then from twenty-one back to twenty-eight! Also, look at the order, look at these people, alternating men and women, in a recurring cycle!"


Qian Lingyi also became interested: "Age! Gender! Is there any special significance to this cycle and alternation?"


This time, Yang Wang finally stopped causing trouble and messing around, he couldn’t help but be curious: "[Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] is truly exceptional! What exactly is the meaning of this stele?"


The ’pattern’ hidden in the ’resonance list’ was finally deciphered by Tian Jing, and a group of Grandmasters believed it was no coincidence.


Didn’t believe it? Look again—


"The last to resonate was Shi Shuang, male, twenty-one years old, the next, unsurprisingly, should be a female, twenty-two years old."


Hui Zhenzi looked down, boldly predicting.


Two hours.


Four hours.


Finally, in the sixth hour—


"Jin Lingqi, female, twenty-two years old!"


Tian Jing’s eyelid twitched!


The pattern!


Matched!


...


"Fortunately, I have seen the ages of these participants at my third brother’s residence, plus in the days before the Sword Discussion, I’ve been explaining the attack and defense on each arena, watching these people compete, seeing the bone ages of these people, confirming with each other, there wouldn’t be any mistake."


Yan Chuan found it amusing.


As the number of people resonating with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] grew, men and women, sure enough, someone would find the pattern he deliberately left, but others wouldn’t know, merely thinking the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] had something special, filtering certain people.


This could mislead others, leading them astray, thereby shifting attention from the Hai Character Arena itself to the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], preventing suspicion onto him.


Yan Chuan had many methods and deep thoughts.


Under such circumstances, as long as no preset considers Yan Chuan has the ’Purple Mist Palace’, shares ’Mutual Teaching and Learning’, has ’Experience’ allowing people to achieve absolute focus, then, it’s not to say no one would suspect him, even if someone suspected, at most, one or two might, and it was also a kind of tentative suspicion, unable to be certain, at most a gut suspicion, harmless.


The majority were still led astray by Yan Chuan!


Thus, the Hai Character Arena was exceptionally heated, the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] drawing countless attention from heaven and earth.


But as the core figures of the Hai Character Arena—


Yan Chuan!


Wang Zhengyi!


These two were perfectly hidden, largely overlooked.


Time passed swiftly.


In the blink of an eye.


June 25th, the forty-eighth day of the Cang Mountain Sword Discussion.


Late Hai Hour.


Another day was about to pass.


Strictly speaking, the Cang Mountain Sword Discussion was about to only have the last day remaining, only the last twelve hours.


On the Hai Character Arena, participants encircled round after round, not around the arena, not around Yan Chuan, not around Wang Zhengyi, but around the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].


"There have been twenty-four people who resonated with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], the next to resonate should be a female aged twenty-four!"


"Twenty-four years old!"


"I am twenty-four!"


"Could it be me?"


Ying He was also attracted and seduced by the overwhelming topic of the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].


On the last day of the Sword Discussion, she temporarily gave up attacking the arena, gave up competing for the final ’Twelve Strong’, instead, focusing her energy on the Hai Character Arena, on the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].


June 26!


Zi Hour arrives.


"Hai Character Arena!"


"First Rank!"


"Ying He Team!"


...


"Ying He!"


"Female."


"Twenty-four years old!"


"Indeed resonated!"


The crowd watched as Ying He stepped onto the stage, truly resonated, even having seen it happen many times, guessed many times, the crowd below couldn’t help but exclaim.


To Ying He, this was the twenty-fifth person to resonate with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele], but from the first person, Sun Gui Fen, to now, six days had already passed, yet these ’resonating’ individuals hadn’t gained much, their comprehension on the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele] hadn’t advanced much nor made many breakthroughs.


Ying He!


Could she be an exception?


...


"Of course not!"


Yan Chuan allowed Ying He to stand on stage in front of the stele for a full two hours, fully immersed.


Ying He thought she was resonating with the [Jiangguan Misty Rain Stele].


The audience below, the Heavenly Masters above, all thought the same.


But only Yan Chuan knew—


...
