Hu Wenhai's entry into the Dark Moon Palace also caused quite a stir within the Vast Heaven Sect.

In particular, the fact that the heads of various palaces were vying for Hu Wenhai made him a topic of conversation among the disciples of the Vast Heaven Sect.

"Hey, hey, hey... did you hear? Senior Brother Xinghe discovered a talisman genius, and the heads of the various palaces almost came to blows over him..."

"What? Almost... I heard they fought. Elder He and Elder Yu got into a fight. Luckily, the First Elder acted quickly, otherwise half of the Spirit Crane Palace would have been wiped out..."

"Not Elder He and Elder Yu, but several other elders are also preparing to join the battle..."

"Finally, I heard that it was the Great Sage who intervened to suppress the chief elders?"

"That's how it is... So in the end, Junior Brother Hu Wenhai was assigned to the Dark Moon Palace."

"Tsk tsk tsk... The talent that Junior Brother Xinghe discovered, this Hu Wenhai is probably the Future King of Talismans!"

"I heard that Senior Brother Xinghe gave him the nickname 'Rushing Thunder Hand'!"

"No problem. I heard he comes from the Hu Lineage. The Hu Lineage's ancestor was the King of Talismans on the Blazing Sun Continent. The Gongsun Clan's ancestor knelt before the Hu Lineage Hu Lineage for three years before receiving their guidance. However, the Hu Lineage later declined, but now that Hu Wenhai has been discovered by Senior Brother Xinghe, the Hu Lineage's rise is certain."

"Just how strong must their talent be to be chosen by Senior Brother Xinghe?"

"How powerful are they? I heard the Gongsun Clan has publicly stated that they will withdraw from the three major Gongsun Clan families..."

"Is the Gongsun Clan really that cowardly?"

"Junior sister... is this a matter of being cowardly or not... the Gongsun Clan is just being pragmatic, okay...?"

The news that Hu Wenhai, a super genius, had arrived at the Vast Heaven Sect and was to become the Future King of Talismans spread throughout the sect.

Driven by curiosity about Hu Wenhai, countless fellow disciples from the Vast Heaven Sect flocked to the Dark Moon Palace, eager to see what this Future King of Talismans was all about.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it; it almost scared the pants off me.

Is this fat guy, who looks to weigh at least 260 pounds, the Future King of Talismans?

But why does he seem a little dim-witted?

Don't judge a book by its cover!

The senior brothers and sisters of each palace were observing in secret, and as they watched, they were truly shocked!

As expected of Hu Wenhai, the Rushing Thunder Hand! His speed put countless senior brothers and sisters from the Frigid Ice Palace, who were known for their speed, to shame on the spot.

Is this hand speed really achievable by a human?

With hand speed like that, is it appropriate for him not to practice hidden weapon techniques?

The fastest record among our Frigid Ice Palace disciples seems to be Senior Brother Leng's 36 Soul-Slaying Nails per second!

But look how many times Hu Wenhai made a move while creating the talisman just now?

Forty-four times in total... which means he's faster than Leng Chan?

Upon seeing this, many senior brothers and sisters from the Frigid Ice Palace exclaimed in admiration, "As expected of the talent discovered by Senior Brother Xinghe, the Rushing Thunder Hand lives up to its name!"

The speed of his hands was astonishing, but... why did the talismans he created look a little strange?

Normally, successfully crafted talismans will display runic radiance, and the stronger the radiance, the better the talisman's effect. So why does the talisman crafted by Junior Brother Hu Wenhai show no runic radiance at all?

Could it be that this junior brother Hu Wenhai's methods have reached the point where he can even conceal the rune's radiance?

Finally, a group of senior students, unable to contain their curiosity, went up to find Hu Wenhai.

"You must be the junior brother of Rushing Thunder Hand..."

Faced with inquiries from his fellow students, Hu Wenhai quickly bowed.

"Ah? Hu Wenhai greets all senior brothers and sisters."

"Junior brother, there's no need for such formalities. I'm just curious about talismans, so I wanted to come and take a look. I hope I haven't bothered you."

"No, no... Senior brothers and sisters, feel free to ask me anything you want to know, I'll answer to the best of my ability."

Afterwards, many senior students inquired in detail about Hu Wenhai's talismans. However, what they didn't know beforehand led to a somewhat chaotic scene...

Hu Wenhai spoke eloquently about all kinds of talismans, and his knowledge of their production and usage methods was absolutely authentic.

As expected of the future King of Talismans from the Hu Lineage, the Future King of Talismans, Hu Wenhai's theoretical level is absolutely top-notch.

However, when asked why there was no runic radiance, Hu Wenhai's answer immediately broke the defenses of countless senior brothers and sisters.

Hu Wenhai said confidently, "My senior sister asked why there was no runic radiance. It's actually very simple... mainly because I failed!"

On site. "???"

Many of the senior students were stunned... some even wondered if they had misheard.

Is this even human language?

Is it mainly because I failed?

Hu Wenhai, junior brother... when you talk about failure, can you please stop making it sound like you've succeeded?

You're making it easy for all of us to misunderstand, aren't you?

Afterwards, Hu Wenhai enthusiastically explained his talismans to his fellow disciples.

Hu Wenhai's Rushing Thunder Hand are characterized by their speed... In terms of talisman making, even the fastest ancestor of the Hu Lineage is no match for Hu Wenhai.

Talisman masters are a very special profession. Generally, talisman masters prepare various talismans in advance and activate them to fight during battles.

Therefore, talisman masters must possess talismans in advance in order to fight.

A talisman master without talismans is essentially worthless in combat.

However, Hu Wenhai said he had no such concerns at all, because his hand speed was as fast as lightning, and he could create any talisman he wanted while fighting.

He is the first talisman master in history to create talismans while fighting, and no matter how complex the talisman is, he can complete it in an instant, relying on surprise.

The only problem right now is... the success rate of creating talismans is somewhat less than ideal.

After hearing Hu Wenhai's words, all the senior students were dumbfounded.

What the hell is this thing?

What?! The first talisman master in history to create talismans while fighting?

Junior brother... from a certain perspective, you're not even a proper talisman master, okay?

A talisman master must first be able to successfully create talismans; only then can they be called a talisman master. If you can't even successfully create talismans, how can you call yourself a talisman master?

However, in response to the doubts of his fellow senior students, Hu Wenhai smiled confidently and said, "Senior students, the success rate of talismans can always be improved with more practice, but as for this speed and the ability to create talismans while fighting, tell me, isn't Hu Wenhai unique?"

Forget everything else, just tell me if I'm fast or not!

Furthermore, Hu Wenhai stated that thanks to the abundant resources provided by Senior Brother Xinghe, his talisman-making speed has improved by leaps and bounds, increasing by 30% in a short period of time!

If this continues, my production speed will inevitably reach an unbelievable level.

All the senior students were dumbfounded by Hu Wenhai's confidence.

Well... although we don't understand talismans, junior brother... isn't your cultivation going in the wrong direction?

Logically, shouldn't a talisman master prioritize success rate before focusing on increasing speed?

You're fast now, but you have absolutely no success rate. Tell me, what's the point?

Upon receiving this news, outer disciple Ma Liang immediately sought out Senior Brother Xinghe.

Ma Liang immediately expressed his doubts about Hu Wenhai's absurd cultivation path.

"Senior Brother Xinghe... I think Hu Wenhai is wasting resources with his cultivation methods... Should I go and have a talk with him?"

Upon hearing Ma Liang's words, Chu Xinghe almost lost control of Thunder Shadow!

What, you want to talk to him?

Ma Liang, do you know anything about talismans?

Hu Wenhai is a professional... he's the Future King of Talismans, and you, an amateur, are saying he's not professional? Why don't you go and give him pointers?

Have you no shame?

Why don't you ask Hu Wenhai to guide you in cultivating the Ten Thousand Ghosts Grand Formation?

And what gives you, Ma Liang, the right to say that someone else's cultivation path is problematic?

As the saying goes, there are countless roads, but I love speed...

Tell me what's wrong with this?

Ma Liang, what do you know...? What's wrong with being fast...? What's wrong with a low success rate?

"Ma Liang Senior Brother Xinghe, let me give you an analogy. On the battlefield, if you encounter a talisman master who can strike once every few moments, no matter how ferocious his talismans are, would you be afraid?"

Ma Liang shook his head.

"If you encountered a talisman master on the battlefield who could unleash over a hundred attacks in a short period, and neither he nor you knew which would succeed, wouldn't that be terrifying, given how unpredictable it was?"

Ma Liang suddenly understood.

Senior Brother Xinghe is absolutely right!

Think about it, there are two talisman masters. Each one can only cast one talisman at a time. Even if it's 100% successful, you can still defend against it as soon as it's cast.

But if you encounter someone who unleashes hundreds of talismans at once, and even they don't know which ones will succeed, how do you defend against them?

Moreover, as Hu Wenhai said, success rate can actually be trained. Don't be fooled by Hu Wenhai's current situation of consuming resources at a rapid pace and having a success rate so low that it makes people wonder if he was hired by Senior Brother Xinghe specifically to consume sect resources.

But as time goes on, let alone a person, even a pig could increase its success rate if it were skilled enough.

Ma Liang pondered for a moment. He didn't even need Hu Wenhai to improve his success rate to that of a normal talisman master. If Hu Wenhai had even a 30% or 20% success rate, that would be a terrifying thing.

On the battlefield, a guy who can throw out hundreds of talismans in a single breath, even if he only uses two or three tenths of his full power, still manages to send twenty or thirty talismans flying everywhere in an instant...

This isn't a talisman master, this is practically a mobile artillery platform!

So what Senior Brother Xinghe said is correct!

In the world of martial arts, speed is the only way to break through defenses!

Other talisman masters all pursue success rates, but they're all wrong... Speed is the foundation of a talisman master's skill.

It turns out that Senior Brother Xinghe discovered Hu Wenhai's strength from the very beginning. Although Hu Wenhai is currently consuming sect resources like crazy, he has pioneered a completely new path for talisman masters. If Hu Wenhai succeeds, he will be a grandmaster who establishes a new school of talismans!

Compared to nurturing a grandmaster, what's the point of the sect wasting these paltry sums...?
