Chapter 102: Different

Of the nine hundred and two talisman masters, five hundred and sixty-three were level one masters, three hundred and thirty-five were level two masters, and four were level three masters.

After Lin Xiang, thirty level two talisman masters conducted their assessment.

However, none could surpass Lin Xiang’s performance.

Ultimately, Lin Xiang was the best among the level two talisman masters.

"We still underestimated Lin Xiang." Shen Xu said and Song Wancheng nodded with a thoughtful expression.

At first, he thought he understood Lin Xiang’s talent and speculated she would rank among the top fifty.

Unexpectedly, her talent was much better than he thought.

"She will rank fifth at the very least." Song Wancheng said.

"Excluding brother Yuan and your sister, do you know the remaining level three talisman masters?" Shen Xu asked.

"I know them." Song Wancheng nodded and began to introduce.

"The plump one is Li Yan. He is a clansman of the Li family and is quite talented." Song Wancheng said and Shen Xu looked at the mentioned person.

"He looks three points like the dean." He said.

"Dean Li is Li Yan’s second grandfather." Song Wancheng revealed and soon continued.

"The beautiful double is Zhu Huang, a third-year student."

’Zhu Huang?’ Shen Xu frowned; his eyebrows creased in thought.

In the book, Zhu Huang was a cannon-fodder double.

He fell in love with the protagonist but he was too ordinary and couldn’t enter Xiao Weimin’s eyes.

In desperation, Zhu Huang tried to drug the protagonist but Lin Mengmeng discovered the trickery.

Ultimately, Lin Mengmeng killed the person when Zhu Huang followed her and Xiao Weimin out of the academy.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu sighed but soon narrowed his eyes.

’Wasn’t Zhu Huang supposed to be ordinary?’ He wondered, looking at the beautiful double.

Although Zhu Huang was inferior to Shen Xu, he was still very beautiful.

No one could objectively describe him as ordinary.

’Is he ordinary because his talent is not good enough?’ Shen Xu wondered but soon shook his head.

At a glance, Zhu Huang was less than thirty.

In the Canglan continent, a thirty years old late-stage foundation establishment realm cultivator and level three talisman master was a genius.

Considering this, Shen Xu couldn’t understand why Zhu Huang was described as ordinary in the book.

’It’s too bad the genius is wasted on Xiao Weimin.’ Shen Xu thought but didn’t dwell on the matter.

"Level three talisman masters, come forward." Li Bai called and four people queued before the qi force stone.

The first person was Li Yan, followed by Song Wanqing, Zhu Huang, and finally Zhen Yuan.

’Brother Yuan, you mustn’t sla me in the face.’ Shen Xu thought, looking at Zhen Yuan with an expectant look.

"Who is better between Li Yan and Song Wanqing?" Shen Xu suddenly asked.

"They are about the same." Song Wancheng revealed and the two watched as Li Yan activated his first talisman.

Soon after, he threw the talisman and the qi force stone lit up.

"Six thousand, one hundred and fifteen attack points." Li Bai called in a surprised voice.

Hearing this, the spectators couldn’t help but be excited.

"It’s just the first talisman but it has already exceeded the range for level three talismans."

"As expected of the Li family."

"The first talisman is enough for Li Yan to rank first."

"Are you dreaming? Have you forgotten student Zhen Yuan?"

"Zhen Yuan drew three perfect grade talismans. Li Yan’s talisman may not be enough to beat Zhen Yuan."

"Not necessarily. The three may be perfect grade talismans but their attack power may not be too high."

"That’s true."

"Let’s wait and see."

At this point, Li Yan activated his second talisman and Li Bai immediately announced the score.

"Six thousand, nine hundred and ninety attack points." He said.

When they heard this, the spectators became wilder.

"Almost a nine hundred points increase." Someone exclaimed.

"It was just ten points short of seven thousand."

"Maybe the third one will exceed seven thousand attack points."

Unexpectedly, Li Yan didn’t disappoint the spectators.

After testing the third talisman, the qi force stone displayed a number over seven thousand.

"Seven thousand, two hundred and twenty-two attack points." Li Bai announced in a proud voice.

"Of the three talismans, the best score is seven thousand, two hundred and twenty-four points." He continued and Li Yan nodded before stepping to the side.

Soon after, Song Wanqing walked up.

"It’s a lot of pressure to follow such a performance." Shen Xu sighed and Song Wancheng nodded.

"At least she isn’t following Zhen Yuan." He consoled himself and Shen Xu couldn’t help but chuckle.

A moment later, Song Wanqing activated her first talisman.

"Six thousand and nine attack points." Li Bai announced but his heart was not calm.

’What is going on with this assessment? Was the topic too easy or are the students too talented?’ He wondered.

However, he didn’t have time to dwell on the matter because Song Wanqing had already activated her second talisman.

A moment later, the score was displayed.

"Six thousand, three hundred and fifty-four attack points." He announced.

’The increase wasn’t as dramatic as Li Yan.’ Li Bai sighed in relief but he didn’t look down on Song Wanqing.

After all, Song Wanqing was a little younger than Li Yan.

Following that, Song Wanqing activated her third talisman.

"Six thousand, nine hundred and ninety-seven attack points." Li Bai called and Song Wanqing subconsciously frowned.

’It’s too bad.’ She thought, looking at Li Yan.

After that, Song Wanqing stepped aside and Zhu Huang came forward.

"Who is better between Song Wanqing and Zhu Huang?" Shen Xu asked while looking at the beautiful double on stage.

"My sister is better." Song Wancheng answered and soon continued.

"Student Zhu Huang was a level two talisman master in the last assessment. He is not a match for my sister."

"If you say so." Shen Xu smiled but narrowed his eyes.

For some reason, it bothered him that Zhu Huang was too different from the book’s description.
