Yu Ye's performance was too relaxed.
So much so that both the spectators in the stands and the competitors on the arena all focused their attention on him.
"This is the talisman cultivator from the sect where Junior Sister Yueyao used to be? His abilities are quite remarkable."
The speaker was Xi Zhen, the fifth disciple of the Taixu Sect.
He was the one standing next to Yu Ye just now. He was also a Golden Core stage talisman cultivator, but his talisman-drawing speed was far inferior to Yu Ye's.
In order to win first place, he poured all his spiritual power into the wolf-hair brush and drew a Seven Fiends Talisman. When he finished drawing it, he almost collapsed because his spiritual power was exhausted.
To his utter surprise, Yu Ye, who was standing next to him, remained calm and composed throughout.
He even had time to look towards the stands and wave to his fellow disciples.
In that instant, Xi Zhen felt that his career as a talisman cultivator had been insulted.
When drawing talismans, one must be free of distracting thoughts and maintain the six purityes.
Yu Ye, on the other hand, touched this and that, and only when he was about to stop writing did he lower his head and draw a talisman.
He originally thought that Yu Ye had only drawn introductory talismans.
Unexpectedly, a fleeting glance from the corner of his eye caused him to freeze in shock at the talisman drawn by the other party.
Scattering beans to create military tally.
Xi Zhen had only seen such a talisman once before, on the top floor of the library.
Because this is a top-tier talisman, no one in the entire Taixu Sect has been able to draw the "Scattering Beans to Create Soldiers" talisman to date.
He had tried several times, but each time he failed because his spiritual energy was exhausted halfway through.
Yu Ye, as a disciple of a small sect, actually drew a top-level talisman so easily.
Xi Zhen swallowed a Spirit-Replenishing Pill and stepped off the stage, watching Yu Ye skip and hop towards the stands. "This person cannot be allowed to live."
Elder Qian followed his gaze and saw six cultivators dressed in moon-white sect robes huddled together, their smiles more dazzling than the sunlight overhead.
Elder Qian scoffed, "A mere sect, not worth mentioning. If you're truly worried, then in the secret realm..."
As everyone knows, when a cultivator dies unexpectedly in a secret realm, the sect can only grieve, but has no way to seek revenge.
The Taixu Sect was already planning to take action against Sheng Ning; whether they added one more or one less, they would still be killed.
Xi Zhen withdrew his gaze from Sheng Ning and the other six, and responded in a deep voice.
When Yu Ye won first place, Sheng Ning and the others were not surprised at all.
Otherwise, Shi Yueyao wouldn't have asked him to take over the position of the Taixu Sect's talisman cultivator.
Her senior brothers are quite capable; even if Qin Chuan were to take the stage, he might not be able to defeat the eldest senior brother, Su Daiyuan.
With a smug smile on her lips, Sheng Ning grinned so wide her eyes disappeared when she saw everyone looking at her.
This was the first time Yu Ye had received so much attention. His usually short-tempered nature immediately vanished, and he awkwardly scratched his head.
"Keep it low-key, I was just drawing casually..."
Other talisman cultivators: ......
When did top-tier talismans become so easy to draw?
He was just scribbling randomly, so what were they drawing?
Is that dog poop?!
Yu was unaware that he had aroused public outrage; he had simply used the same phrases his junior sister often used.
Besides, none of them had ever seen Junior Sister's extraordinary cultivation level.
So what if he just drew a top-tier talisman?
His junior sister can also refine pills and is a sword cultivator!
Thinking of this, Yu couldn't help but turn her head to look at Sheng Ning, who was happy because she had won first place.
He smirked and waved his hand dismissively, "Junior Sister, do you like that talisman? If you do, I'll give it to you!"
What kind of family are they?
Top-tier talismans are given away for free!
Does he think this thing is as common as roadside foxtail grass?
The cultivators sitting behind the six people all coughed up blood.
They hadn't believed in the strength of Sheng Ning and his group of six just now, but now it seems they were short-sighted.
-
The first round of the competition was held very quickly.
It was completely over in almost just two days.
There are five major competitions in total: talisman drawing, alchemy, weapon crafting, a sword cultivator melee, and a magic cultivator melee.
Apart from Sheng Ning, a sword cultivator who was forced to participate and only achieved fourth place, the other four, including Su Daiyuan, all achieved good results.
Sheng Ning had imagined that he would meet Shi Yueyao on the arena.
But she didn't expect the other party to come straight at her.
The eight-star Kunwu sword in her hand was snatched from other cultivators. The moment she saw Shi Yueyao thrusting the sword towards her face, she immediately drew her sword and deflected it.
Sensing the unusual aura emanating from Shi Yueyao, Sheng Ning looked at her and curled her lips, "Fellow Daoist Shi, you're so fierce right from the start, have you caught rabies?"
Shi Yueyao was recently angered by Yu Ye.
Enraged, she immediately went to Elder Qian and demanded that she participate in the sword cultivator competition.
Elder Qian agreed to her request because she had already reached the Golden Core stage.
Unexpectedly, Shi Yueyao disregarded all the other sword cultivators as soon as she stepped onto the stage.
They only held onto Sheng Ning.
Her delicate features were distorted by Sheng Ning's reckless words.
Then Shi Yueyao said softly, "I hope that Junior Sister can still smile when her inner core is pierced."
Having said that, she picked up the spirit sword and stabbed it towards Sheng Ning's lower abdomen.
Sheng Ning certainly wouldn't let her stab her so easily. She watched coldly as the other party charged straight at her, but at the most critical moment, she closed her eyes.
"What is Junior Sister doing? Is she waiting to die?"
Even the usually composed Su Daiyuan and Lu Qingan couldn't help but clench their fists when they saw Sheng Ning close her eyes.
Yu was visibly shocked. If Guan Yunchuan and Lu Jingshen hadn't been holding him back, he would have rushed forward to protect his junior sister.
