Not long after Zhan Yihan walked out of the formation, disciples from Tianyi Sect, Liuyun Sect, and Xianchi Palace also walked out of the formation one after another.
Seeing Zhan Yihan already exit the formation, the three of them were filled with surprise. They had been so focused on each other that they hadn't noticed Zhan Yihan at all. Compared to the three of them, the Secluded Immortal Palace was far too weak to warrant their attention. And now, they had lost to the very Secluded Immortal Palace they hadn't paid attention to. How could they feel?
"Didn't they say that the Secluded Immortal Palace didn't have any immortal formation masters above level six participating in the competition? What's going on now?" The elder of the Flowing Cloud Sect was furious, his face livid. Those who had been trying to find out were complete losers. The Secluded Immortal Palace had such a genius in formations, and they hadn't even found out.
"So he's Zhan Yihan." Elder Han of Xianchi Palace sneered as he looked at Zhan Yihan on the field. Xianchi Palace had previously investigated Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue, but their abilities were too low, and since they were relatively recent disciples, they hadn't paid much attention. Now, it seemed they had underestimated the Dunshi Xian Palace, underestimated Zhan Yihan, and, he felt, Su Jinyue was no simple matter either.
He stood up and walked towards the field. He felt it necessary to remind Xue Mengyao not to underestimate Su Jinyue. As for Qin Feng, they had investigated him closely from the beginning and were already well aware of his talisman refining skills.
"Xue Mengyao, come here." Elder Han waved to Xue Mengyao.
"Yes!" Xue Mengyao responded and quickly walked to Elder Han's side.
"When you go on stage, you must refine the talisman as quickly as possible. Don't underestimate Su Jinyue from the Reclusive Immortal Palace, understand?" Elder Han said sternly. Besides Su Jinyue, they had thoroughly investigated the talisman-making skills of several key disciples participating in the competition, and none of them matched Xue Mengyao's. In this match, as long as Su Jinyue didn't encounter any accidents, the Xianchi Palace would undoubtedly win.
"I understand, Elder." Xue Mengyao nodded in response, but she felt a little skeptical. She could refine a seventh-level immortal talisman, so how could she lose to an unknown disciple? The elder was really overthinking. As for Zhan Yihan, he had won the competition this time, but she felt it was just an accident. If there was an accident, could there be another accident?
"In this match, we need to pay special attention to Su Jinyue," said Elder Zhou of Tianyi Sect to Li Xiaoran with a serious expression. They had already lost one match, and they absolutely could not afford to lose a second one. The control of the Yunling Mine must not be taken away by the Dunshi Immortal Palace.
"Yes!" Li Xiaoran nodded, looking at Su Jinyue, who was talking to Zhan Yihan, with a playful look in his eyes. He hoped she would be a strong opponent, so that the competition would be interesting.
"I'm going up." Hearing the deacon asking the disciples participating in the second game to go to the field, Su Jinyue smiled at Zhan Yihan.
"Yeah." Zhan Yihan smiled and nodded. He had absolute confidence in Jin Yue.
Su Jinyue walked onto the stage and arrived at the position corresponding to her jade number. She saw the basic materials for refining the talisman already laid out on the table. Unlike refining weapons, which required strict regulations on the materials required, refining talismans relied primarily on the disciple's mastery of the runes.
Sensing an unfriendly gaze staring at her, Su Jinyue turned around and saw that the person staring at her was Xue Mengyao.
When Xue Mengyao saw Su Jinyue looking at her, she curled her lips in disdain and said, "You are bound to lose!" She was the youngest and most talented disciple among the four major sects, how could she possibly lose to her?
Su Jinyue smiled faintly and looked away. She didn't like verbal battles. Winning a competition depended on strength, not arguments.
Seeing that Su Jinyue ignored her, Xue Mengyao's face turned red with anger, but since they were in the middle of a competition, she could only endure it. If it were any other time, she would definitely teach the other party a lesson and let the other party know the consequences of offending her.
Li Xiaoran curled his lips playfully. Xue Mengyao had a talent for cultivation, but she was too arrogant, a spoiled brat. In his opinion, Xue Mengyao wouldn't go far. And Su Jinyue was a little hard for him to understand; people like her were often very secretive and no ordinary character. The same could be said of Zhan Yihan.
Sensing Li Xiaoran's inquiring gaze, Su Jinyue turned her head and saw Li Xiaoran nod and smile at her, so she smiled back. She was no stranger to both Li Xiaoran and Xue Mengyao. She had read their profiles when she was in the sect, and today Qin Feng had told her a lot about them. She already had a good understanding of their personalities and talisman refining skills. However, relatively speaking, she felt that Li Xiaoran was the stronger opponent.
The deacon walked up to the crowd and said, "In this competition, everyone can choose the talisman they want to refine. Whoever refines the highest-level talisman in the shortest time will be the winner. Does anyone have any questions?"
"No!" everyone answered in unison.
The deacon nodded and announced, "The game begins!"
Everyone immediately picked up the talisman pens and began to refine talismans, and suddenly the stage was shining with brilliance.
Su Jinyue picked up the talisman pen, thought for a moment, and quickly drew runes on the talisman paper. As she put pen to paper, fiery red light flashed continuously.
At this moment, the elders of the four major sects and the leader of Tianyi Sect all focused their attention on Su Jinyue. They were already familiar with the talisman refining skills of Li Xiaoran and Xue Mengyao, but now it was Su Jinyue who was beyond their comprehension.
"Will this Su Jinyue also surprise us like Zhan Yihan before?"
"Her talisman-making skills are very skillful and should not be underestimated."
“No wonder the elders of the Secluded Immortal Palace are not worried at all this time.”
"We were too careless and didn't take Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue seriously."
"Elder Li, can we win this time?"
Elder Li shook his head. "That depends on how well Qin Feng performs." Li Xiaoran and Xue Mengyao were both Level 7 Immortal Talisman Masters. It would be difficult for them to win this time! Unless a miracle happened. As for Su Jinyue, she was only a Level 5 Talisman Master. He had no hope at all.
Time passed minute by minute. Su Jinyue put down the talisman pen in her hand and looked at Li Xiaoran. She saw that he had also put down the talisman pen, but a little later than her.
Seeing Su Jinyue put down the talisman pen before Li Xiaoran, the Tianyi Sect leader couldn't help but frown, feeling a sense of unease. Could it be that Su Jinyue would really win the competition this time? He really wanted to know the result, but during the competition, there was a formation outside that blocked spiritual consciousness, and no one could penetrate it.
