A considerable commotion arose from the audience.

"Lu Qiwu? Xie Mo bet on Lu Qiwu? Is he capable?"

"Xie Mo is widely recognized as the number one talisman cultivator."

"Could it be that Xie Mo thinks he's inferior to Lu Qiwu? How could that be?"

"No!" Someone's expression changed slightly, and they said in a trembling voice, "What if Xie Mo chooses to deliberately lose for the sake of these gambling funds?"

"!!!"

"!!!"

Once doubts are raised, they are difficult to suppress.

The sect leader of the Wind and Thunder Sect frowned and interrupted, "The Five Sects Tournament is a sacred competition. Don't think too badly of our contestants."

"But it's hard not to think about it..."

The audience looked at each other, completely bewildered as to why Xie Mo would voluntarily concede defeat before the match.

Yunxi tiptoed over and counted the spirit stone cards on her fingers.

"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, father, grandfather, my goodness..."

Yunxi exclaimed in fear, "Second Senior Brother, this is too much!"

Xie Mo chuckled softly, "It's alright, I think he's pretty amazing."

"!!!"

The pressure was entirely on Lu Qiwu's side: "..."

Lu Qiwu proactively stated, "I won't feel bad even if you lose everything~"

Xie Mo nodded indifferently.

But then he casually added, "Lu Qiwu, I hope you can win."

The moment the bet was placed, Lu Qiwu was already somewhat dazed.

In fact, this situation is more advantageous for him.

He won, and became famous overnight.

He lost, but it wasn't unjust for him to lose to Xie Mo. Moreover, even if he lost the match, he could still win back all his wealth.

This business seems like a sure thing.

But Lu Qiwu pursed his lips.

Seemingly finding her answer in Xie Mo, she smiled helplessly and said, "Okay~"

Due to the tight schedule, the Talisman Cultivation Competition will be held two hours after the Pill Cultivation Competition.

Even if the audience learns now that Xie Mo has placed his bet, there's no chance to spread the word; outsiders simply don't have time to place their own bets.

When the competition began, almost all the spectators stared wide-eyed, feeling tense along with the contestants.

There were more participants in the Talisman Cultivation Competition than in the previous two competitions, totaling 42 people.

At the command of the Wind and Thunder Sect Master

The staff successfully pushed out the cart containing forty-two eggs.

"???"

Yunxi said that as a four-skill player, she had registered for every match, but she still felt that her appearance rate was not as high as this thing, and sighed, "I don't want to hear about the rules..."

"I just want to know which bastard has an overproduction capacity and can lay so many eggs."

Song Hemian said he knew the answer to the question and raised his hand to introduce it enthusiastically: "There is a giant Vajra Tortoise in the back mountain of our sect. It was raised by my master."

"That giant tortoise lays a bunch of eggs almost every year."

"Master originally kept them secretly, saying that he would give one to each disciple of the sect when they grew up."

Song Hemian confessed, "But he persisted in incubating the eggs for many years, and not a single one hatched. Later, even the giant tortoises looked down on him."

The Sect Master of the Wind and Thunder Sect: "..."

Yunxi suddenly realized, "No wonder!"

So the sects have too much stockpiled goods and want to use some of them up during the Five Sects Grand Competition.

The sect leader of the Wind and Thunder Sect flicked his finger, and the brush he held, which recorded the rules, drew a perfect arc in mid-air before accurately striking Song Heming on the head.

Under the suspicious and disdainful gazes of all the spectators, the sect leader of the Wind and Thunder Sect guiltily touched his nose and said, "There aren't many restrictions in the Talisman Cultivation Competition. You can bring your own talisman-drawing tools. Just draw the talismans on the eggshell of the Vajra Giant Armored Turtle."

"???"

Chu Ling felt like he'd misheard. Staring at the bastard whose head was even bigger than his senior brother's, he couldn't help but ask, "What did you say?"

Draw runes on the eggshell?

This is indeed a good test for rune cultivators; runes can not only be drawn on paper, but can also extend beyond it.

In the cultivation world, there are many magical artifacts engraved with runes, all of which are drawn stroke by stroke by rune cultivators.

but……

Chu Ling immediately put on a mournful face, "But we haven't learned this lesson yet!"

The sect leader of the Wind and Thunder Sect said, "This test question was proposed by one of your sect's elders."

Upon hearing this, the elders of the Wuji Sect nodded in unison.

The Grand Elder said, "With your current cultivation level, you are actually capable of achieving this. You don't need to learn much; everything depends on practice."

Therefore, this talisman cultivation competition is their practice ground.

While the many talisman cultivators looked at each other, completely bewildered, Yun hope stepped forward and proactively picked out a round egg.

The child took out a needle.

I was thinking of poking the egg and scooping out the yolk and white to eat.

But the next second, Yunxi saw Xie Mo picking eggs.

Lu Qiwu staked all his wealth on Xie Mo, and Xie Mo also gambled all his spirit stones on Lu Qiwu.

Yunxi subconsciously looked to the left, then to the right.

Although the betting was somewhat casual, but...

The little girl seemed to see their earnestness in the two outstanding young talisman cultivators.

This is a battle that will cost Fu Xiu his reputation.

Neither of them cared about money; at this moment, they were of one mind, both wholeheartedly determined not to let the other lose the bet.

The large talisman is designated; everyone must draw the same Vajra Subduing Demon Talisman on the egg.

Such runes are extremely difficult to draw, let alone on an egg, even on paper.

The two outstanding young talisman cultivators from the two sects each took out their talisman pens, neither giving way to the other, and their spiritual power was released from both sides.

Yunxi paused for a moment, then became nervous as well, and quietly put down the needle.

If we're just talking about drawing talismans, the little girl is very self-aware; she absolutely cannot beat Lu Qiwu and Xie Mo.

She couldn't even beat the others, at least the others had all learned about this Vajra Subduing Demon Talisman in their talisman cultivation classes, while this was the first time she had seen this talisman.

The child rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a long time.

Cheng Jiangui exclaimed in surprise, "This is the first time I've seen my little apprentice hesitate like this. It seems this talisman cultivation competition is indeed putting her in a difficult position."

Thinking of the various house design drawings she usually made, Ye Jin rubbed his brows and sighed softly: "Before the competition, Junior Sister heard those talisman cultivators predicting the exam questions."

In fact, everyone agreed that the main competition topic was solving formations.

It requires both a deep understanding of runes and extreme control over formations.

Yunxi felt that if it were a formation-breaking competition, she would have a chance to compete for a ranking.

but……

The young girl slumped lazily on the table, sighing, "How come there are more lines on these runes than my great-grandmother's life line on her palm?"

Nightfall: "..."

"never mind……"

The little girl remained silent for a long time, then sadly pulled out her rune pen and rune paper. She sat down in a chair, placed her hands on the table like a primary school student doing homework, and muttered to herself, "Since I've already paid for it, I can't just come for nothing~"
