Chapter 95 Undercurrent
As soon as Mu Chen entered the Talisman Master Association, he felt like he was being stared at by a pack of hungry wolves.
Jing Chiyan came out to coordinate several times before he was able to barely allow Mu Chen to escape from the Talisman Master Association.
"It's really not easy to get this third-level talisman master badge." Mu Chen couldn't help but say as he looked at the badge in his hand.
Ye Shi nodded in agreement and said, "Yes!"
Those people from the Talisman Master Association looked at Mu Chen with eyes that seemed to want to strip him naked. Even he felt creepy.
If it weren't for the fact that Mu Chen was able to suppress Lan Ruofeng by getting the third-level talisman master card, Ye Shi would have pulled Mu Chen away long ago.
"How about we not go to the Inscription Academy today?" Ye Shi said after a moment of hesitation.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Okay." He had to wait until those people calmed down before going. Going to the Inscription Master Academy now would alert the enemy.
"Go to the Inscription Academy, what are you going to do there?" Jing Chiyan asked in confusion.
"Go get certified as an inscriptionist!" Ye Shi said as a matter of course.
Jing Chiyan looked at Mu Chen and asked in surprise, "You also understand inscriptions?"
"A little bit." Mu Chen said modestly.
"When did you become interested in inscriptions?" Jing Chiyan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked.
Lu Han and Song Cheng almost fell out over Muchen. I heard that the two seemed to have reached some agreement that no one would approach Muchen and interfere with his decision.
Jing Chiyan originally thought that no matter how unwilling Mu Chen was, he could only choose between the Alchemy Academy and the Talisman Academy. Now it seems that this guy has other plans!
"I've actually always been interested in it." Mu Chen said with a smile.
"You're researching so many things, don't you feel overwhelmed?" Jing Chiyan looked at Mu Chen and said.
Ye Shi spoke first, "No, for Muchen, third-level alchemy and third-level talisman techniques are as simple as eating and drinking water. There is no challenge at all. Therefore, Muchen needs to learn more to enrich himself."
Jing Chiyan glared at Ye Shi unhappily and said, "...I didn't ask you."
Jing Chiyan secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking: His own disciple is really a lover's eyes, thinking that everything about Muchen is good, and he dares to say such things. The third-level alchemy and third-level talisman skills are as simple as eating and drinking water. What will these people who have been second-level alchemists and second-level talisman masters for decades think of this!
"That's what Mu Chen said." Ye Shi said a little aggrievedly.
Mu Chen forced a smile and said, "I was just joking, but I think the inscription is very interesting. In many ways, it is similar to the talisman, so I am very interested."
Jing Chiyan: “…”
…………
As soon as Mu Chen and Ye Shi left the Talisman Master Association, they appeared at the door of the Talisman Master Association.
"It seems that he has left." Chen Da said with regret.
Mu Yuanfeng said helplessly: "It seems that the only way is to go to the academy to find them."
Chen Da frowned and said, "At Holy Star Academy, there is only one opportunity to visit relatives per month, and this month has already passed."
Mu Yuanfeng frowned. "It doesn't matter. Anyway, we've already arrived in the imperial capital. Just be patient and wait. We'll always find a chance to meet."
Chen Da nodded, "That's true." Chen Da smiled and complimented Mu Yuanfeng, "Mr. Chen, you are such a genius that all parties want to win you over. It's really amazing!"
Mu Yuanfeng smiled and said, "Shi Tou is a genius, with eighth-level talent. People with this kind of talent can become Martial Kings without any accidents. Chen Er is just a little clever."
Mu Yuanfeng had a neither good nor bad time during this period. A bunch of powerful people were vying to please him, hoping that he could help win over Mu Chen. Mu Yuanfeng did not dare to make any rash decisions for his son and could only hide from those people.
Being chased like a rat by a group of people who want to please you is an experience that not everyone can have.
…………
"Jiyue Auction House." Muchen stopped in front of an auction.
"I didn't expect that there is such an auction house in the imperial capital." Ye Shi muttered.
Jing Chiyan rolled his eyes and said, "Jiyue Auction House is spread all over the country, including in the imperial capital. Do you have anything to auction?"
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Well, I haven't been very well off lately. I have a few extra level three fire talismans that I'd like to exchange for some pocket money."
Jing Chiyan raised his eyebrows and said, "A third-level flame talisman should be worth quite a bit of money."
Ye Shi hurried over and asked, "How much is it worth?"
Jing Chiyan pondered for a moment and said, "How much Yuanshi can it be worth? Let me put it this way! If you use so many Yuanshi to buy chicken, you may not be able to finish it in a lifetime..."
Ye Shi blinked and said in amazement, "Really? That's a lot of Yuanshi. I can eat ten chickens a day, no less than twenty."
Jing Chiyan: “…” Twenty a day. Poor Jing Chiyan, who has a great reputation all his life, why did he accept such a fool as his apprentice.
As soon as Mu Chen entered the auction, he received the highest level of reception.
Muchen entrusted ten third-level fire talismans to the auction house for auction.
…………
When Mu Chen came out of the auction, it was already getting late, so the three of them returned to the academy.
"Disciple, hold the Yuanshi card and look at it, what can you see?" Jing Chiyan said to Ye Shi who was in a daze.
Ye Shi glanced at Jing Chiyan and said solemnly, "Mu Chen told the auctioneers that 20% of the auction proceeds will be deposited into his card and 80% into mine. I want to know how many Yuanshi there will be."
Jing Chiyan rolled his eyes. His own disciple was such a money-grubber. Really...
"The auction hasn't started yet. No matter how much you stare at your Yuanshi card, Ye Shi will have no use." Jing Chiyan said unhappily.
Ye Shi lowered his hands in frustration, and suddenly asked, "Master, do you know how Zhuang Yu is doing?"
Jing Chiyan frowned and said, "He has been released."
Ye Shi's expression suddenly changed. "Released? Why? Shouldn't he stay in there for three months?"
"Zhuang Yu fainted in the quarry, and Shi Ziyu brought him out." Jing Chiyan said.
Ye Shi frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "What's the big deal about fainting? That scoundrel has a very strong life and it's impossible for him to get into trouble easily. It's strange! Why did that drunkard do something?"
"Your uncle's eyes were all on you, and he didn't notice the situation on Zhuang Yu's side. As a result, Shi Ziyu took him away directly. The person has been taken out. Your uncle shouldn't bother with the junior." Jing Chiyan said somewhat dissatisfiedly.
"Zhuang Yu is such a lucky guy!" Ye Shi said dissatisfiedly.
Jing Chiyan nodded in agreement.
"That drunkard is such a fool." Ye Shi said angrily.
"That's right." Jing Chiyan said with full agreement.
…………
"Mu Chen, are you a level three talisman master?" Yan He looked at Mu Chen's talisman master badge repeatedly and couldn't help but said with his eyes wide open.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Yes!"
"You are so amazing. I don't know when I can become a second-level talisman master." Lu Yi said helplessly.
"It will be soon. As long as you spend less time on flirting with young girls, you will soon be able to become a second-level talisman master." Mu Chen said with a faint smile.
Lu Yi smiled awkwardly. Mu Chen's talisman skills were superb and he had taught them a lot. With Mu Chen's help, Yan He had become a second-level talisman master.
"Mu Chen, will you stay in Fuyuan?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Mu Chen raised his head and looked towards Jiang Cheng. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you want to ask this yourself, or did someone ask you to?"
Jiang Cheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, someone... Actually, I want to know too."
Mu Chen smiled and didn't answer.
"Mu Chen, don't blame Jiang Cheng, he..." he said with some embarrassment.
"I understand." Mu Chen interrupted Yan He. Some time ago, Fan Li had been making trouble for Mu Chen everywhere, always assigning him some messy tasks in an attempt to drive Mu Chen out of the academy.
Many other instructors in Fu Academy were aware of the conflict between Fan Li and Muchen, but they followed the principle of less trouble is better and did not intervene. Muchen's impression of Fu Academy must have been extremely bad.
"Mu Chen, Fu Academy is actually not bad. The dean has already come out of seclusion, and instructor Fan Li has been transferred."
Lu Yi said.
Mu Chen shrugged and said indifferently: "Okay, let's not talk about this." Fan Li was transferred away. Such a bastard, who had done so many things, was just transferred away. It was hard to get rid of the hatred in his heart.
"Mu Chen, actually, it's not easy to get into the Alchemy Academy. The reason you were assigned to the Fu Academy after the entrance test was because of Landa from the Alchemy Academy. Landa holds a high position of power in the Alchemy Academy, so you won't get any good results if you go there." Yan He said.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Alright, don't say anything. I know my limits."
…………
"Are you okay?" Lan Ruofeng looked at Zhuang Yu's pale face and said with concern.
Zhuang Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, I made you worry."
"I'm glad you're okay." Lan Ruofeng looked at Zhuang Yu gently.
Zhuang Yu looked at Lan Ruofeng and asked in confusion, "Ruofeng, you don't look well. Is something wrong?"
Lan Ruofeng shook his head and said, "Nothing."
Ever since Muchen made the Fire Talisman, bad things have been happening one after another.
First, Lan Da was demoted. In reality, the Alchemy Academy's leadership had long known that his uncle had tampered with Muchen's test. However, until Muchen emerged, the Academy's staff had kept it a secret. As Muchen's fame grew, the Academy's dean grew increasingly critical of his uncle.
Furthermore, Fan Li was expelled from Fuyuan. Lan Ruofeng and Fan Li have always been in contact. The reason why Fan Li has always targeted Mu Chen was also because of Lan Ruofeng's constant instigation.
Landa originally thought that Mu Chen was in the quarry, a place where his cultivation would be delayed.
Little did he know that both Mu Chen and Ye Shi had become five-star martial artists when they came out of the quarry. During this month, his cultivation had not improved at all. Not only was he left behind by Ye Shi, who had an eighth-level qualification, but he was also surpassed by Mu Chen, who had a sixth-level qualification. This was really unbearable for Lan Ruofeng, who was always admired by everyone.
Today he heard that Mu Chen was certified as a third-level alchemist and a third-level talisman master in one day. Lan Ruofeng was extremely annoyed.
He is a genius in the Alchemy Academy. When others mention him, they always like to compare him with Muchen. The result of the comparison is that he is not as good as Muchen in every aspect. He can only be regarded as an ordinary genius in the traditional sense, while Muchen can be regarded as peerless. He can always come up with some strange things that make the old monsters in the academy excited.
Because he was too jealous of Muchen, Lan Ruofeng even secretly studied the talisman. Unfortunately, his talent in the talisman was limited. After all his efforts, he didn't get any results and ended up wasting a lot of time.
