WHOOSH!
The moment the spatial ripples collided, Xiao Ming and Xue Mao exchanged glances, their shock mirrored in each other's wide eyes.
The very air around them trembled, as if the formation they had witnessed earlier was more than just an illusion.
Xiao Ming's confusion grew as his gaze swept over the scene.
How could Xue Mao have cracked that profound board array so effortlessly?
His mind whirred, searching for an explanation, but he couldn't make sense of it.
"Lil' Xue!" Xiao Ming couldn't suppress his curiosity, the words tumbling out before he could stop them. "How on earth did you crack this formation?"
Xue Mao's lip curled into a smug grin, clearly delighted by the praise.
"Hmph! You simpleton! You think that someone who helped design the formation of the Divine Emperors would be stumped by such a trivial array?" He puffed up, basking in his own words.
