On the stage, Zhuo Ming respectfully saluted Chen Mobai.
"I didn't expect that my opponent in the first round would be Junior Sister Zhuo, but I haven't seen her for a long time."
This girl who came out of Nanxifang City with him and joined Shenmu Sect, after leaving Xinya Hall, the two of them had no contact again.
It is also very fateful that we can meet each other in the sect competition with thousands of people today.
"I hope that Senior Brother Chen will work hard and this competition can become a true legacy."
Zhuo Ming knew that he was no match for Chen Mobai. After entering the ring, he did not waste any more of his talismans and spiritual power. He said a nice scene and then raised his hands to admit defeat.
"Junior sister, we haven't seen each other for two years. Since we are destined, let's have a drink together."
After getting off the ring, Chen Mobai invited Zhuo Ming. After hearing this, the latter looked happy and came over immediately.
Due to his good results in last year's competition, Chen Mobai also gained a certain reputation in the entire Shenmu Sect.
Many people believe that when the next batch of chalcedony and golden zhi mature, he is likely to be one of the true successors.
And Zhuo Ming is the one who has the most confidence in Chen Mobai becoming the true successor.
After all, when he was in Nanxifang City, Yuan Chiye concluded that his was the top true spiritual root.
"Senior Brother Chen, long time no see."
But unexpectedly, before the two of them sat down, another acquaintance came over to say hello.
It is Liu Wenbai, another genius with three spiritual roots who was born in Nanxifang City.
"It's you. Since you're here, let's have a drink together."
The three of them sat in a restaurant overlooking part of the arena, and began to talk about their experiences in the Shenmu Sect in the past two years.
Among them, Zhuo Ming's career is the easiest. It is more difficult for her to convert to the Immortal Scripture, and now she can only reach the sixth level of Qi training.
On weekdays, I work as an apprentice in a talisman shop in Shenmu City. The shop owner is a disciple of the Talisman Making Department and a first-level talisman maker.
However, Zhuo Ming didn't learn anything. The shop owner strictly guarded against the art of making talismans and only let her handle some work of making talisman paper and talisman ink.
"My qualifications are average. If I want to reach the ninth level of Qi training before my sixtieth birthday, I may have to join the team that opened up Yunmengze."
After Zhuo Ming finished speaking, his face looked bitter. Participating in the sect competition was actually a stage to show off himself.
She had originally saved two first-grade high-grade talismans, planning to win the first round and then look for an opportunity to sell her life for a good price.
Who knew she was so unlucky that she met Chen Mobai, the true seed, in the first round, which immediately made her lose the courage to take action.
"It's really tragic."
After listening to Zhuo Ming's account, Chen Mobai couldn't help but sympathize with her.
If he didn't have the opportunity of a turtle shell, he probably wouldn't fare as well as Zhuo Ming in the Shenmu Sect.
"Where's Junior Brother Liu? Didn't you follow Yuan Chiye to open up Yunmeng Ze?"
"Alas, after escaping death several times, most of the junior brothers and sisters who followed me were lost. Although I saw a glimmer of hope for the future."
When Liu Wenbai spoke, he did not hide his cultivation level. He had already reached the eighth level of Qi training.
Moreover, Chen Mobai observed him carefully and found that compared to when he was at Xinya Hall, his gentle brows had a hint of tenacity. It was true that the battlefield of life and death tempered people, and he looked a bit reborn.
"Well, that's right. After Senior Brother E Yun built the foundation, Senior Brother Yuan took over. When Senior Brother Yuan builds the foundation, I think you will be able to practice the ninth level of Qi. With their support, you can also be among the best in the future true inheritance."
Liu Wenbai was flattered by Chen Mobai's words. He didn't expect that he could be praised like this by his senior brother who was like an immortal.
"I don't dare to have such extravagant expectations. I just want to be ranked as a true successor."
The three of them talked for a while, and it was Chen Mobai who asked, and they answered respectfully.
Although Chen Mobai had lost his status as the leader of the disciples in Nanxifang City when he left Xinya Hall, the two of them still respected Chen Mobai very much.
After Chen Mobai entered the top 48 last year and was only one round away from becoming the true successor, this respect became even more profound.
In the minds of Zhuo Ming and Liu Wenbai, Chen Mobai has been regarded as the true successor.
They decided that this would happen sooner or later.
"There are some medicinal fields and spiritual fields in my Xiaoyang Ridge that need help. If Junior Sister Zhuo doesn't mind, she would be willing to come to my place to help."
Chen Mobai looked at Zhuo Ming and suddenly thought that she had also completed her task by chopping firewood in Xinya Hall. If she could train herself in farming, she would probably be more useful than Liang Xinhuo.
"Here, what's the remuneration for senior brother?"
Zhuo Ming, who was born as a casual cultivator, is still very rational and asked the most critical questions straightforwardly.
"For the time being, I will give you 30 spiritual stones a year. If Junior Sister is willing, you can watch on the sidelines while I am making ink and drawing talismans. If you don't understand anything, you can write it down and consult me after I finish making the talismans."
The price of hiring a Shenmu Sect disciple with a sixth level of Qi training is not high, but after Zhuo Ming heard the last half of the sentence, his eyes lit up and he immediately nodded in agreement.
In the Tianhe Realm, the inheritance of hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals is, in some respects, even more precious than the books on martial arts.
If you are not a true master and disciple, you will not be taught at all.
Although you can use spiritual stones to purchase it in the Shenmu Sect's library, it is only allowed by disciples of the Talisman Making Department.
Zhuo Ming also spent many years of savings to buy the inheritance of a first-level talisman master in the market, but due to the weak foundation, it was very difficult to learn.
When she was in Nanxifang City, she knew that Chen Mobai was an excellent talisman maker. The talismans sold at the stalls had simple strokes and exquisite compositions, which were better than those sold in large-scale shops.
If I can study under his tutelage, I might be able to make up for the basics and become a truly advanced Talisman Master in the future.
So when she heard that Chen Mobai was willing to teach her, Zhuo Ming immediately agreed.
"The hut is in the mountains, without the noise of cars and horses. If possible, I really want to learn from Senior Brother Chen to farm and make wine, and be at ease, but it's a pity..."
When Liu Wenbai said this, he seemed to think of some of his brothers who died in Yunmengze, and couldn't help but look dark.
He carries the hope of his family, and now he has many junior brothers and sisters following him, so he can no longer retreat.
"Junior Brother Liu, the greater your ability, the greater your responsibility."
Chen Mobai comforted him and left with Zhuo Ming.
"First go and resign the apprenticeship at the Talisman Shop, and then when the sect competition is over, come back to Xiaoyang Ridge with me."
"Yes, Senior Brother Chen."
Soon, today's sect competition was over, and Qi Rui and Xi Jinghuo also passed smoothly.
The three of them met for a drink in the evening. Zhuo Ming, who had packed her things, came over and quietly sat aside to refill their drinks.
"Brother Chen, you are a bit unlucky. If you pass the fifth round, the opponent you will face is Senior Sister Ding Ying."
Everyone’s lineups are out today.
After Qi Rui looked at his own, he also ranked Chen Mobai's and discovered this.
