227: Chapter 133 Talisman King_4 227: Chapter 133 Talisman King_4 “That Ling Xi, she couldn’t possibly have been eliminated, could she?”
“She shouldn’t have been.
Didn’t you see the Tao Base, Immortal Bridge, and inner core she released just now?
Those phenomena were clearly talisman phenomena.”
“With talisman phenomena, she should be good at talismans.
She couldn’t have failed the second round.”
“But, they’ve already announced up to the top ten, and her name hasn’t appeared yet.
She couldn’t possibly be in the top ten, could she?”
“I also think that, no matter how skilled she is at talisman making, she shouldn’t be able to enter the top ten.”
“Forget the top ten, now they’ve moved on to the top five.”
“Third place, Flying Immortal Peak’s Shao Yijian, Level Thirty-three Mana Restoration Talisman.” From above, the Elder’s voice traveled down, and immediately, a wave of astonishment swept through the crowd below.
“Third place is actually Shao Yijian!”
“Flying Immortal Peak really lives up to its name.
Even if talismans aren’t their main focus, they still secured third place.”
“This time, it seems that no Peak will shake Flying Immortal Peak’s position.”
“First place must be Spirit Symbol Peak’s He Tianqi.
I wonder who is in second.”
Amid the crowd’s astonishment, the Elder’s voice came again.
“Second place, Spirit Symbol Peak’s He Tianqi, Level Thirty-five Mana Restoration Talisman.”
“What?”
“He Tianqi is only second?”
“If he is second, who is first?”
“A Level Thirty-five Mana Restoration Talisman isn’t enough for first place?”
The surrounding crowd was instantly stunned; the first place wasn’t He Tianqi?
That was the genius disciple of Spirit Symbol Peak, personally acclaimed by the Peak Master as the best talisman-making talent they had received in a century.
But now, He Tianqi hadn’t secured first place.
He Tianqi looked dazedly at the Elder, thinking that if this were not happening at the Hundred Peaks competition, and if the speaker were not an Elder, he would have already questioned aloud whether it was true that he wasn’t first.
He had crafted a Level Thirty-five Mana Restoration Talisman, and it still wasn’t enough for first place?
Then who was first!
“First place, Four Treasures Peak, Ling Xi, Level Forty-one Mana Restoration Talisman!” From above, the Elder, instead of using a mana-conjured hand to hold the talisman as before, took Ling Xi’s crafted talisman in his own palm.
A Level Forty-one Mana Restoration Talisman was too astonishing, and even he couldn’t help but hold it in front of his eyes personally to confirm it once more.
The crowd below seemed to explode in an instant, bursting into a series of exclamations.
“Level Forty-one?”
“Heaven, am I hearing things?”
“It’s really Level Forty-one!”
“Can someone in our Hundred Peaks Sect actually craft such a high-level talisman?”
“If it weren’t for the Elder’s words, I simply couldn’t believe it!”
“We, at our Peak, are very skilled at talisman making, and one of our senior brothers made it into the top ten.
But even our Peak Master can’t craft a Level Forty-one talisman.
This is Level Forty-one!
It’s terrifying!”
He Tianqi turned his head in stunned disbelief to look at Ling Xi in the distance.
A Level Forty-one talisman?
How could that be possible?
For him to have crafted a Level Thirty-five talisman was already shocking enough.
If it were claimed that someone did something even more astonishing, like crafting a Level Forty talisman, he would believe it.
But Level Forty-one, he simply couldn’t believe it no matter what.
The gap between a Level Forty talisman and a Level Forty-one is only one level, but the difference is as vast as heaven and earth, a threshold many could not cross in their lifetime.
Anyone who could craft a Level Forty-one talisman would be honored as the Talisman King!
The disciple of Four Treasures Peak, ranked last, this young disciple, was actually a Talisman King!
“Talisman King!”
“Ling Xi, she’s a Talisman King!”
For a moment, the entire Hundred Peaks Sect was stunned.
At the highest point, Bai Fengzi, hearing the praises for Ling Xi, shifted his gaze to Cao Zhen.
Is this what you are doing for the Hundred Peaks Sect?
Not only teaching your disciples cultivation techniques and helping them cultivate, but also transmitting all sorts of knowledge to them, elevating the entire Sect in all areas.
How wonderful it would be if the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth had arrived a little later, allowing you more time to prepare.
Alas, I can no longer hold on for much longer, and in the future, I must rely on them.
In the direction of Spirit Symbol Peak, the Peak Master looked at the figure below with a gaze that, aside from shock, was filled with regret, deep regret.
He had some impression of this disciple, as Ling Xi was born with the Ancient Talisman Immortal Body, and he had read in ancient texts about how terrifying their growth could be, how suitably tailored they were for the art of talismans.
Yet, he had not taken her as a disciple back then, convinced that the Ancient Talisman Immortal Body could not possibly flourish in this era.
Who would have thought that Ling Xi had not only broken through Core Formation but was also capable of crafting a Level Forty-one talisman—no matter the type, anyone who could craft a Level Forty-one talisman was a Talisman King!
If only he had known this earlier, he would have taken Ling Xi into Spirit Symbol Peak at all costs.
From Vermilion Bird Peak, Tu Zhuque clapped his hands thrice: “Good, very good.” Four Treasures Peak having a Talisman King—when people inquire about Li Ke’s partner, to say Li Ke’s disciple is a Talisman King would also be a matter of pride.
Deng Qixing was already staring wide-eyed at Cao Zhen, having finally realized why he had only sent Ling Xi.—
Ling Xi was a Talisman King, just one person was enough!
Did they need to send any other disciples?
