The array had already started to circulate the moment Jiang Chen entered it. As the formation was circulated, all the dummies were alerted by Jiang Chen’s presence. Every pair of the dummy’s empty eyes were unusually cold. Even though it didn’t emit any kind of cold light, it still gave people the feeling of falling into an ice cavern. The aura carried by these dummies were oppressive. If it was an ordinary expert coming in, he would already be scared to death. It was imaginable what would happen after that.

However, Jiang Chen wasn’t an ordinary expert. It was impossible to suppress him with this kind of aura. In his eyes, these dummies were merely killing machines without a soul. Therefore, there was nothing that he should be afraid about.

“Come on. Show me the exceptionality that you dummies have.”

Jiang Chen unleashed a wave of combat intent. He wanted to see if these dummies could do stop him from staying in the array for 10 minutes.

*Ka!*

As soon as his words faded, a dummy lunged at him all of a sudden with incredibly fast speed. Almost as soon as it had just moved, it appeared in front of Jiang Chen and launched a simple punch. But no one should underestimate the punch because it was quick and violent. Jiang Chen couldn’t help but be taken aback despite his agility.

“That’s fast!”

Jiang Chen’s eyes flicked, but he didn’t pay too much attention to it. Even though this dummy had an incredible speed, it was still weaker compared to him. He clenched his fists and launched it out. He had never lost before in a fist fight with brute force.

*Bang!*

The two fists collided with each other, creating a large spark that temporarily lit up the corner inside the palace.

That dummy obviously had underestimated Jiang Chen’s strength. Its entire sturdy body was sent flying away by Jiang Chen’s punch. Its arm was crushed and turned into pieces by Jiang Chen’s brute force.

“Vulnerable.”

Jiang Chen shook his head because the Iron Dummy Array was always claimed to be a marvellous creation in Skycloud Pavilion. If these dummies only had such power, he could easily destroy all of them in half-a-minute.

However, what happened next surprised him. The formation around him shook once more. The pieces that was dropped on the floor flew up towards the dummy’s broken arm until the original arm was reconstructed. It now became as new as before, like it had never been damaged.

“Is this for real?”

Jiang Chen was stunned, he suddenly understood what this array meant. It was much more powerful and unusual than he had imagined. The broken or damaged dummies could be restored with the help of the formation. That was to say, these dummies couldn’t be killed. So, the only thing that the candidate could do was to keep on defending for ten minutes and it would be considered a success.

*Hu…* *Hu…*

The chilling wind around was getting more and more intense. This was the result of the rapid circulation of the formation. As it continued to circulate, Jiang Chen could clearly feel that the cold Qi coming from the dummy was getting stronger. In other words, the strength of these dummies were improving rapidly.

“I understand it now. These iron dummies will adjust their strength based on the expert who came in. This is where the real terror is. That attack just now was merely a tentative one, which meant that it was just testing my power. Then, it will start to launch the real attack. This is getting more and more interesting.”

Jiang Chen wasn’t a fool. He instantly figured out the key to it. At the same time, he couldn’t help admiring this wonderful array. He had to admit that the person who created this array must be a genius. The truth was that this array was invented by Ouyang He himself, helping the sect find greater talents in the outer sect, however, Jiang Chen didn’t know about it. Additionally, not many people had succeeded in this array. Tian Muyun was one of the minority who succeeded.
