Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

Although Su Chen noticed the peculiar and strange features of this circular hall, he still couldn't quite understand what it implied.

So, he continued to stand there, frowning and pondering as he observed the surroundings of the circular hall.

Lan Xinyi stood quietly by his side and didn't disturb him.

Suddenly, Su Chen stepped back a bit and continued to watch. He felt a sense of familiarity, yet couldn't quite pinpoint it!

Then he stepped back further, almost reaching the doorway, and the feeling of familiarity intensified!

Lan Haifeng and the others from Yunhai Hall also stopped their search and stood inside, watching Su Chen, with obvious sneers on their faces!

After a few minutes, Su Chen took a few more steps back, stopping about seven or eight meters from the doorway, and looked inside again!

"I understand!"

Suddenly, it was as if a lightning bolt struck Su Chen's mind, and he exclaimed.

"Su Chen, what do you understand?"

Lan Xinyi, hearing this, quickly asked.

Lan Haifeng's heart skipped a beat. Could this guy have really figured something out?

But then he shook his head, dismissing the thought.

In his mind, this place had surely been searched by many people over the years, including those super strong warriors of the Ancient Martial World!

If those people couldn't find anything special, how could this little-known guy possibly discover something?

Even so, due to his previous lesson, he wisely kept silent, thinking to himself:

"I want to see how long you can keep pretending!"

However, Su Chen's mind was entirely focused on this circular hall, and he paid no attention to Lan Haifeng, that clown!

"Xinyi, actually, this room is designed differently and in a circular shape, with the positions of the four pillars being so unusual mainly because the entire room is a formation."

Su Chen said as he looked at the circular hall.

Earlier, when Su Chen stood inside, he felt a sense of familiarity but couldn't quite identify it, and it was because the entire room collectively formed a formation!

It was only when Su Chen stood at a certain distance from the doorway and took in the whole view of the circular hall that he could see it more clearly!

"A formation? What kind of formation?"

Lan Xinyi asked naively, completely ignorant about formations!

But what shocked her more was that he even understood formations?

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Lan Haifeng was even more convinced that he was just pretending!

The Way of Formation is extremely profound, and he thinks he can grasp it?

It's utter nonsense!

At this point, he kept quiet, just waiting to see how Su Chen would embarrass himself next!

"This is the Four-Star Dragon Gathering Formation, and the positions of these four pillars correspond to the directions of the four stars, together forming the formation's core, supporting the entire formation's operation!"

Su Chen didn't pay any attention to Lan Haifeng's thoughts and explained to Lan Xinyi.

The reason Su Chen recognized this formation, of course, was because he had read about it in that Formation Technique Book.

However, Su Chen didn't recognize it at first, partly because he was previously inside and didn't notice the overall layout of the circular hall. More importantly, this formation had gone through some changes, which made it different from the description in the book!

Of course, after observing for a while, Su Chen realized that although this formation had some modifications, the principles should be more or less the same.

"Su Chen, how do you even understand formations?"

Lan Xinyi looked at Su Chen with admiration, her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of radiance!

Though she found it unbelievable that Su Chen knew about formations, when she saw him explaining earnestly, she couldn't help but believe him!

Moreover, she felt as if he was enveloped in a mysterious aura. Previously, the sudden appearance of the longsword and clothes, along with his strength in fighting the black tiger, which exceeded normal primary Meridian Expansion level...

All of this indicated this man was extraordinary, and now he even understood formations, which was simply incredible!

"A genius like me naturally understands everything!"

Su Chen said with a narcissistic smile.

"You're talking as if it's true, but only a fool would believe that!"

Lan Haifeng watched Su Chen speaking confidently. When he saw Lan Xinyi looking at him like a fangirl, he felt very displeased!

However, since Lan Xinyi's relationship with this guy had clearly become closer, and she was even wearing his clothes, he held his tongue. After all, Lan Xinyi is the young lady of Yunhai Hall!

"What should we do next?"

Lan Xinyi asked, fully handing over control to Su Chen now.

"Let me think for a while."

Su Chen pondered for a moment, although he had seen this formation, he hadn't studied it carefully back then, so he still needed to think it over carefully now!

Of course, it didn't mean that just destroying the four pillars would work, because that might directly destroy the entire formation, leaving no chance of activating it!

Since the key lies in those four pillars, Su Chen started focusing on them!

Undoubtedly, breaking the formation required changing the positions of these four pillars!

The only problem was, how could he change the positions when they were embedded in the ground?

After observing for a while, Su Chen drew his sword from his waist and started etching on the ground. Ever since he took out the Light Martial Sword, it had been hanging at his waist and not stored back in the Cangyue Ring.

From time to time, his brows furrowed, and then he "swish, swish, swish," drew several lines on the ground with the sword!

Lan Xinyi watched Su Chen's actions and found it utterly perplexing, not knowing what he was up to!

But it bore an enigmatic, even more mysterious, allure!

Soon, lines began to appear under Su Chen's sword, crisscrossing!

If you looked closely, you'd find those lines converging at four points!

"This should be correct!"

After finishing, Su Chen smiled with satisfaction.

Su Chen then used his sword to pry open a palm-sized area of ground at one of the points, revealing a spherical controller!

The controller was connected underneath with a network of slots, allowing movement in any direction!

"How could there be such a thing here? How did you know?"

Upon seeing this controller-like object, Lan Xinyi's eyes widened in disbelief!

"I'm a genius!"

Su Chen shamelessly replied, then pried open the ground at the other three points.

Those three places similarly revealed controllers and slots just like the previous one!

Lan Xinyi, hearing Su Chen's words, didn't think he was being shameless; instead, she believed he wasn't just a genius but a prodigy among geniuses!

To be able to find this, what else could he be but a monster?

She, of course, knew that Su Chen hadn't stumbled upon it by sheer luck but genuinely understood the secrets within!
