The upper house.

It was a very special place in the academy.

The disciples who could be promoted to the upper house were all the geniuses with the best strength and talent in the academyaC,

Be it the resources they could enjoy or their status in the academy, the disciples of the upper house were far superior to those of the lower house.

In fact, it could be seen from the battle with the Tiger Tribe.

If the disciples of the lower house were soldiers, then those of the upper house were generals in charge of commanding!

The difference in status between the two was simply too great!

In addition, the upper house also had the nickname of the sect Elders’ hidden courtyard.

This was because more than 80% of the Nine Suns Sect’s Elders had been in the Nine Yang Academy’s upper court when they were young.

As time pa.s.sed, the upper house disciples also became a symbol of hope to become sect Elders in the future.

In the Nine Suns Dao College, the upper house was a place that countless disciples yearned for and fought for!

However, it wasn’t easy to become a disciple of the upper house.

They had to compete with many geniuses and defeat countless elites just to fight for the ten spots in the upper house!

Lin Shen had learned about the top ten disciples of the upper house, but he didn’t know much. He only knew their names and backgrounds.

The only thing he could be sure of was that if he wanted to become one of the top ten disciples of the upper house, advancing to the Bright Aperture Stage was a necessary condition!

Of course, it was only a necessary condition, not a sufficient one.

There was no lack of Heaven-rank disciples in the Bright Aperture Stage, but not everyone could advance to the upper house.

“Yan Jingren…”

Lin Shen’s eyes flickered.

He didn’t know much about Yan Jingren either.

The communication between the two of them was only limited to that glimpse at the east gate.

However, compared to Yan Xing, who looked strong on the outside but was weak on the inside, Yan Jingren gave Lin Shen an even more dangerous feeling.

After being in a daze for a moment, Lin Shen shook his head and threw this matter to the back of his mind.

Regardless of whether he would interact with Yan Jingren in the future, there was only one thing he needed to do now, and that was to increase his strength.

Lin Shen opened the exchange list and began to search.

As expected, he found array formations on the list.

Great Five Elements Sword Formation, ten minor merits

Seven-section Array of Unmoving Mountain, 15 minor merits.

Nine Palaces Interlocking Sword Formation, 20 minor merits

Lin Shen quickly browsed through it and rejoiced.

There were unexpectedly as many as thirty to forty array formations on the list.

They ranged from the Yin Yang Duality Formation and the Tripart.i.te Formation that required the fewest people, to the Heavenly Lotus Formation and the Spiral Hundred Shadow Formation which had more than a hundred people.

“Looks like the Nine Suns Sect pays quite a lot of attention to the coordination between their disciples.”

A smile appeared on Lin Shen’s face as he carefully thought about which one to choose.

He now had a total of six clones. Including himself, there were seven people. Logically speaking, he should choose seven people to set up the array formation.

However, it wasn’t that simple.

The battle was ever-changing. Lin Shen couldn’t guarantee that every time he wanted to line up to fight the enemy, all his six clones would be available.

If one of them was missing, the seven-man array formation would be useless.

However, it would be a waste to choose an array formation that required five or six people.

It wasn’t always the case, but usually, the more people there were, the stronger the array formation would be.

Lin Shen immediately fell into deep thought.

“In terms of practicality, the Great Five Elements Sword Formation seems good enough.”

According to the description of the array formation, the Great Five Elements Sword Formation was formed by five people. They lined up like plum blossoms and surrounded the enemy in the middle. The sword formation flowed, and the longswords converged into a bright light that attacked the enemy from all directions!

The five of them attacked at the same time. Their attacks would be airtight and filled with boundless power!

More importantly, the five of them were only the minimum number of people needed to form the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

If necessary, ten, fifteen, or twenty people could also use the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

With five people in a group, the Great Five Elements Sword Formation could include at most 125 people at the same time!

The more people there were, the stronger the formation!

If he chose the Great Five Elements Sword Formation, even if Lin Shen only had four clones by his side, he could still gather enough people to line up.

Moreover, when the number of clones increased to nine in the future, he could also continue to use the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

“However, the Seven-section Array of Unmoving Mountain doesn’t seem bad either!” Lin Shen looked at the other array formation.

The Seven-section Array of Unmoving Mountain was an incomparably exquisite array formation deduced by a cultivator master when he was observing the towering mountain.

This array formation was exquisite because the number of people in the array formation was extremely agile.

Even two men could use this array formation.

If there were three people, they would be able to attack and defend, and their power would increase greatly.

If there were four people, they would be twice as powerful as the three of them.

The more people there were, the more powerful the formation would be.

If one had to point out what it was lacking, it was that the array formation could include seven people at most.

Looking at the two array formations, Lin Shen couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

The Seven-section Array of Unmoving Mountain was powerful and agile, but the upper limit of the number of people was low.

The upper limit of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation was much higher, but the number of people lined up had to be multiples of five, so it was relatively less agile.

Both of them had their own merits, and it was really difficult to choose!

After thinking for a while, Lin Shen finally decided to choose both!

At most, he would just spend more time practicing.

As long as he could increase his strength, he didn’t mind spending some time.

The two array formations cost him 25 minor merits.

Lin Shen went to the Mission Hall and handed in the rare herbs he had obtained from Jing Hai and received 32 major merits.

After exchanging for two array formations, he only had seven minor merits and one medium merit left.

The only medium merit was the fixed monthly benefit for Heaven-rank disciples.

After some thought, Lin Shen spent another two minor merits to exchange for three Concealment Talismans and three Invisibility Talismans.

When he sneaked into that manor, he was surprised to find that the Concealment Talisman was quite useful..
