The third carriage.
The carriage was about ten zhang long and three zhang wide, completely empty.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the walls on all sides, each lined with cards. Each card was a Fourth Rank Soul General Card, containing a wide variety of martial techniques, making the scene dazzling. At a glance, there were at least over two hundred Soul General Cards.
The old man introduced, "This Weakness Training Ground cost the Master 271 Soul General Cards, all Fourth Rank Silver Soul General Cards, covering almost all major martial techniques. The cost is so high that even within the association, it is a remarkable masterpiece."
Lord Kong's face showed a hint of satisfaction, clearly he was extremely pleased with this work.
"Weakness Training Ground?" Everyone was hearing this name for the first time.
The old man said solemnly, "271 Soul General Cards mean 271 Soul Generals. This carriage was made by a master. As long as there are enough Starstones, these Soul Generals will never perish. The Weakness Training Ground can automatically select Soul Generals that can counter you, and challenge you step by step. So far, no disciple has ever passed the test."
Lord Kong chuckled, "High-rank Soul General Cards are too expensive, and low-rank ones are not very useful, so I decided to use all Fourth Rank ones to create this for entertainment."
Everyone immediately looked up in awe. Look at that, 271 Fourth Rank Soul General Cards, and he just used them for entertainment!
"Does that mean I can go in and fight 271 Soul Generals?" Tang Tian pointed at the wall, eager to try.
"Exactly!" Lord Kong laughed heartily, "What do you think? Interested?"
"Of course, of course!" Tang Tian's eyes sparkled, "Solo training every day is so boring!"
The intense training behind the light gate lasts ten days, and that monotony is absolutely daunting. Although they can now fight the fog wall, it's far from as exciting as actual sparring.
"True, okay, let you go first!" Lord Kong chuckled. He was also very curious about Tang Tian. This young man, who had gained everyone's recognition, undoubtedly needed to be extremely strong. However, in the test that day, Tang Tian's talent was the worst, ranking last.
Lord Kong, who had seen countless people, had never met such a strange young man before, so he wasted an outer camp slot to select Tang Tian. The requirements for the outer camp were far less strict than those for the inner camp. Even if Tang Tian didn't make it in the future, the responsibility would not fall on him.
The others naturally had no objections. Unlike Tang Tian and Amoli, they were all very smart. After a night of digestion, they had slowly realized the implications of what Lord Kong said yesterday. They suspected that the test for them might start from here.
Just right, let Tang Tian, this hothead, go first to help them understand the situation.
Han Bingning coldly reminded, "Be careful."
"Ah ha, don't worry, I'm a god-like young man!" Tang Tian was full of fighting spirit.
God-like young man...
The old man snorted, "We'll see how you brag. With such poor talent, you dare to boast like that." He increasingly believed that Tang Tian was just a talker, who talked big but was actually incompetent. He had seen many such people. If Lord Kong selected Tang Tian for the inner camp, he would strongly oppose it, but since it was the outer camp, he didn't care.
The survival in the outer camp was extremely difficult, and the elimination rate was very high, which he knew very well.
"Basic Tang, go, go, go! Take them all down!" Amoli raised his thick arms and shouted loudly, making everyone's ears buzz.
Lord Kong narrowed his eyes, "Take them all down? Ha ha, you underestimate this training ground!" He nodded to the old man, who took out a Starstone and walked to a corner, inserting it into a slot on the wall. The crystal-clear Starstone, once inserted, emitted a bright light.
A red square boundary appeared on the ground.
"We will step back from the red line," Lord Kong said. Everyone heard and stepped back beyond the red line. As soon as they stepped back, a square light barrier rose from the floor, isolating Tang Tian from them.
A beam of light enveloped Tang Tian. Curiously, he looked up, and the light shone on him, not painful but a bit tingling.
"This beam of light is projected by the [Gray Cat Pupil]. The [Gray Cat Pupil] is a Bronze Secret Treasure from the Tianma constellation, and it is the core of this training ground. It can, to some extent, see through the psychological weaknesses of the opponent. Thus, the training ground can select the corresponding Soul Generals to fight," Lord Kong explained. "The 271 Soul General Cards on the walls cover almost all types of Soul Generals. Don't look at these Soul General Cards being only Fourth Rank, but many high-rank martial artists entering the training ground are also in a sorry state. Don't have any psychological burden, losing is nothing. Actually, I built the Soul General Training Ground not for victory or defeat, but to overcome one's own weaknesses. That's why I used Fourth Rank Soul General Cards, because if the rank is too high, the overwhelming strength would make people ignore their weaknesses."
At this moment, the Soul General Cards on the walls began to light up one after another.
"The Gray Cat Pupil is selecting the Soul General Cards," Lord Kong said.
The beam of light scanned over the Soul General Cards, and the 271 Soul General Cards on the four walls were quite impressive.
"This will take some time," Lord Kong said. "It is looking for the most suitable Soul General."
The speed of the beam was not slow, and soon, the Soul General Cards on the first wall were all scanned, and the beam jumped to the second wall.
"Interesting," Lord Kong was somewhat surprised. "The first wall didn't find a suitable one. It seems that Young Tang is quite strong!"
Amoli nodded in agreement, "That's right, Basic Tang is a god-like young man!"
God-like young man...
Sima Xiangshan and others had countless fine lines on their foreheads. Every time they heard this term, they couldn't help but silently think: "Actually, he's a crazy-like young man..."
The beam of light quickly scanned over the cards and then jumped from the second wall to the third wall.
Lord Kong and the old man were somewhat stunned.
Lord Kong turned and asked, "Has the training ground had any malfunctions recently?"
The old man also looked puzzled, "No! It was used a few days ago."
Their gazes then turned to the field. Their faces were strange, as the first two walls contained 134 Soul General Cards. This meant that the Gray Cat Pupil believed that none of these 134 Soul Generals could counter Tang Tian.
134 Soul Generals, and none could counter Tang Tian...
This... this...
The old man was shocked. He suddenly realized that this Tang Tian seemed to be a bit strange! He was very familiar with the Weakness Training Ground and often used it himself. Although his strength had long surpassed the Fourth Rank, as long as he suppressed his power and maintained it at the Fourth Rank, the Weakness Training Ground could still find a way to counter him.
This Tang Tian...
Lord Kong also had a serious expression. The Weakness Training Ground was born from his idea, and he had spent a lot of time and effort to find the [Gray Cat Pupil] and other secret treasures. The Soul General Cards on the walls, although all Fourth Rank, were carefully selected by him, representing various techniques and combat methods.
But...
Why...
The atmosphere suddenly became strange.
The beam of light scanned the third wall and then jumped to the fourth wall.
Lord Kong, the old man, and the other Light Martial Association martial artists all looked at each other, disbelieving.
"Hey, why aren't the Soul Generals coming out yet!" Amoli looked surprised, not quite understanding. Sima Xiangshan and others, being very sharp, noticed the increasingly serious expressions of Lord Kong and others. Recalling what Lord Kong had said about the Weakness Training Ground, they began to realize.
Could it be... could it be that the Gray Cat Pupil didn't find Tang Tian's weakness?
When this thought popped into their minds, it firmly took hold of their attention.
"Hey, why aren't they coming out yet!" Tang Tian, inside the field, shouted impatiently at the Soul General Cards on the wall.
The Soul General Cards remained still.
The surrounding Light Martial Association martial artists, their confusion and disbelief vanished, stared blankly at Tang Tian inside the field.
No one knew the Weakness Training Ground better than they did. They almost trained here every day. Sometimes they would gather in groups and place bets on how many rounds they could last with Fourth Rank strength, which was one of their favorite bets.
No one had ever lasted more than five rounds in the Weakness Training Ground with Fourth Rank strength.
Each round, the Gray Cat Pupil could more clearly see your weaknesses, and the next round's Soul Generals would be more targeted.
But...
They stared blankly at Tang Tian inside the field.
Ding!
When the beam of light landed on the last Soul General Card, it suddenly disappeared, and the square light barrier slowly descended amidst the nearly stunned gazes of the crowd.
"Ah, what's going on? Is there a problem?" Tang Tian looked around, puzzled.
His voice was exceptionally clear in the silent carriage.
Tang Tian's gaze fell on the crowd, and he exclaimed, "Hey, what's that look on your faces? You also noticed something was wrong, right? I waited for a long time, and nothing came out. You saw it, right? I didn't do anything! It's definitely not my fault!"
"Basic Tang didn't do it!" Amoli stood up for him with great righteousness.
The crowd looked at Tang Tian as if he were a monster.
This guy...
Really... really has no weaknesses?
How... how could that be possible!
How could there be someone in this world without weaknesses.
Absolutely impossible!
At this moment, the beam of light began to move erratically, like a headless fly.
Lord Kong suddenly remembered a sentence the master who made the Weakness Training Ground had said.
"In the Bronze Secret Treasures, the Gray Cat Pupil is very good, but once it fails to find the opponent's weakness, it will fall into a state of madness, and its martial soul will suffer a fatal blow."
Not good!
Before he could react, the 271 Soul General Cards on the four walls exploded one after another like firecrackers!
Pop, pop, pop!
Bursts of light exploded on the walls, forming a sea of light.
When the light dissipated, the four walls were empty.
Everyone was stunned.
