Chapter 779 No. 2
The master of talismans who was teaching the class left after assigning the homework.
Everyone stood up and prepared to go back.
At this time, Lan Yue walked up to Xiao Han and said, "If you don't want them to look down on you, then surpass them in the art of talismans."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Han to say anything, he walked out with his head held high.
Although Lan Yue's attitude was not very good, Xiao Han felt that this arrogant female cultivator was showing goodwill to him.
At this moment, several male and female monks gathered around and escorted Lan Yue away.
This made Xiao Han feel that these people learning the art of talismans was just like students on Earth going to school, they were simply completing their studies and were not learning because they loved this skill.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have the time to resort to these ridiculous tactics of exclusion.
Forget it, why bother with so much? She is busy, just focus on studying.
She was too lazy to argue with these people, and only got up and left after most of them had left.
At this time, a round-faced male cultivator walked up to Xiao Han and whispered, "Don't be sad. These people are all young, lifelong disciples with strong backing. The one named Ma Changming was sent from Black Dragon City. The female cultivator named Lan Yue is a direct descendant of Xuanyu Immortal Venerable. Everyone is rushing to curry favor with them."
Xiao Han: Brother, which eye of yours saw that I was sad?
However, she was still very grateful for the gossip provided by this brother.
Then, Xiao Han sent him a voice message: "Fellow Daoist, could you tell me the name of the Master of Talismans who will be teaching today?"
She didn't care about the childish behavior of these young people who looked up to others, but she still wanted to know more about the teachers.
At least, she must know which master she is learning from.
The round-faced male cultivator was startled and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Han. She didn't even know who the master teaching the class was. This female cultivator was quite ignorant.
He then transmitted a message: "It's Master Zhou Yuanzong."
He didn't want to openly oppose Ma Changming and his gang, and seeing Xiao Han was isolated and pitiful, he secretly sent a message. However, he now looked down on Xiao Han's shallowness and ignorance.
After finishing his words, he walked quickly past Xiao Han without even looking away and walked out of the classroom.
Xiao Han smiled, stood up and slowly walked out of the school.
As soon as he arrived outside the Fu Dao League, he immediately put the little tricks between these young people behind his mind and hurried to buy the runes to break the forbidden talisman and the corresponding talisman paper.
The price of talisman paper for fourth-grade runes is not cheap. If you want to practice to a success rate of more than 50%, it will cost a considerable amount of money.
Fortunately, she earned 200,000 fairy stones from selling runes, otherwise, with the few fairy stones in her pocket, she would not be able to support herself to study without making money.
Although the finished talismans can be sold, the initial learning investment is still very expensive.
The fourth-grade Breaking Forbidden Talisman could break some common formation restrictions and was a must-have for cultivators in the Human Immortal Realm, making it one of the more popular talismans. Xiao Han specifically inquired about the price of a finished Breaking Forbidden Talisman, which retailed for 800 Immortal Stones per piece.
The number of blank talisman paper for the finished Forbidden Breaking Talisman was 350. Xiao Han didn't know the wholesale price of the talisman. Even if it was 700 immortal stones per piece, she would only make money if she achieved a success rate of more than 50%.
Therefore, learning any skill does not guarantee you will make money. If you want to make money, it depends on your level.
Xiao Han spent more than ten thousand fairy stones and bought thirty blank talisman papers.
For three days, she stayed at home, following Master Zhou's explanation of the characteristics of the fourth-grade runes, some precautions when drawing runes, and some techniques of drawing high-level runes that the rune masters had learned in the lower realm. She began to figure out the rune structure and practice drawing runes.
The higher the grade of the talisman, the more energy is required to draw it, and the talisman that breaks the ban must contain a trace of the power of the law.
Not to mention the high cost. Therefore, in the middle and late stages of the talisman path, every step forward is extremely difficult.
Especially for those independent cultivators who need to earn their own living, they have to spend a lot of energy to draw the talismans they are proficient in so that they can exchange them for spirit stones.
However, if one is a talisman master who is supported by a family, a sect, or a major force, he can study without hesitation and does not need to stop to make money.
After all, for the big forces, no matter which skill the monks learn, they will only be rewarded after they reach an upper-middle level.
In three days, Xiao Han used up a total of twenty-seven blank talisman papers.
As for the success rate? I only managed to draw two.
Of course, there is no question of success rate, but Xiao Han is still very happy, after all, he succeeded twice.
With so many experiences of failure and success, if she practices more, it will be just around the corner for her to increase the success rate of breaking the forbidden talisman to more than 50%.
Three days passed by in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, it was time to go to school again.
After she entered the school, her classmates still implemented the strategy of isolating her and no one spoke to her.
Xiao Han didn't care. He sat there with seemingly dull eyes, but in fact he was reviewing his experience in drawing talismans over the past three days.
When Master Zhou arrived for class, he didn't waste any words and said directly, "Everyone, take out your talisman paper and pens, and draw the forbidden talisman on the spot. I want to see the results of your three days of practice."
Everyone took out paper, pen and ink and started drawing talismans.
There are only about twenty or thirty immortal realm talisman masters in the school, but Master Zhou, who is at the top, is at the celestial realm. Therefore, Master Zhou knows every move of these cultivators.
Some people only drew one-tenth of the rune structure before a small mistake caused the power gathered from the previous strokes to suddenly dissipate and the rune paper was declared invalid.
Some people made mistakes halfway through drawing, and some even nearly completed the entire rune but still failed to finish it perfectly, resulting in failure at the last minute.
Xiao Han didn't expect that he would succeed on the first try of drawing a talisman.
Looking at the forbidden-breaking talisman that contained a trace of the power of the law, Xiao Han was secretly delighted. The three finished talismans would at least recoup the investment of around 2,000 immortal stones.
Someone wanted to take out another blank piece of talisman paper to continue drawing, but was stopped by Master Zhou.
At this time, Master Zhou began to comment on the spot.
He started by commenting on the monk who failed the fastest, pointing out his mistakes one by one.
Finally, Master Zhou said, "Only two fellow Taoists succeeded in drawing talismans on this occasion."
He moved his fingers slightly, and the talismans placed on the table flew in front of him. The owners of these two talismans were Xiao Han and the other was the round-faced male cultivator who had transmitted the message to Xiao Han.
At this time, Master Zhou lifted up the talisman of the round-faced male cultivator and commented, "This talisman completely meets the requirements and is a relatively successful one."
Then, he held up Xiao Han's talisman, looked at her and said, "Do you know what's wrong with your talisman?"
Xiao Han shook his head subconsciously.
Master Zhou continued, "The trace of law power contained in this talisman is too weak. This shows that when you drew the talisman, you didn't fully understand the law power contained in the forbidden talisman. You still need to work harder."
Xiao Han thought that the three talismans he had successfully drawn could make some of his money back, but he didn't expect that there was a problem with them. He felt very depressed.
But Master Zhou added, "Of course, this subtle difference can only be discovered by cultivators above the level of Talisman Master. It's just slightly inferior to the other finished talisman."
He returned the two talismans to Xiao Han and the round-faced male cultivator respectively, and finally pointed at the round-faced male cultivator and said, "I declare that this fellow Taoist has won first place in this classroom assessment."
The round-faced male cultivator showed excitement on his face.
Xiao Han couldn't help but complain in his heart: This kid is still a pig in disguise.
