The result

When Wu Sanbao saw that the number 79 talisman testing platform had been sealed off, and when he heard from others that the person who gave the order was from the Talisman Sect, he immediately realized that something bad might be about to happen. He did not expect that the Talisman Master Assembly would be so strictly controlled that even his little actions could be discovered!

He originally only had someone sprinkle a little bit of Execution Stone Powder on five of Liu Chun's talismans. That way, if any of his other five talismans were inferior to his opponent's, he would be eliminated directly. Moreover, since only five talismans were sprinkled, it wouldn't be as obvious as all ten talismans being wiped out. He thought that such a small commotion would go unnoticed.

After all, Liu Chun wasn't a particularly renowned talisman master, so not many people would pay attention to him.

However, to everyone's surprise, the Talisman Master Assembly actually noticed even this small commotion.

Wu Sanbao felt a little flustered, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He immediately and quietly withdrew from the crowd and hurriedly left Banxiang City.

United Heroes Hall on the other side of Banxiang City, the leaders of several major forces were sitting in the council hall. They were all very surprised when they heard the words of the Golden Core cultivator standing in the center.

"Execution Stone Powder?"

Then the Golden Core cultivator from the Talisman Sect took out the talisman sprinkled with black powder from Liu Chun's talisman bag and said:

"That's right, this is the Execution Stone Powder. Seniors, you can try putting a little on your hands and see if you can feel the Spiritual Power becoming dull or leaking away."

These people in charge were all old monsters who had cultivated for thousands of years or even longer, so they had naturally heard of the name Execution Stone. When they saw him take out the talisman, one of them did not hesitate to reach out and feel it.

He then sighed somewhat heavily to the other responsible persons:

"It's definitely that damn thing."

"This!"

"It really is the Execution Stone!"

"This thing has reappeared!"

The Golden Core cultivator then bowed respectfully to the leaders and said:

"Seniors are surely more aware of the dangers of this thing than I am. I urge you to notify the various sects as soon as possible, to join forces to find the user behind this thing, and to destroy it completely as soon as possible, restoring peace to the world."

"Rest assured, we will take this matter seriously as it involves the Execution Stone. You may return and report back," said one of the leaders, a man with long, white hair reaching the ground.

The Golden Core cultivator bowed and took his leave before departing from the United Heroes Hall.

Several leaders of the United Heroes Hall sat in silence in the council chamber for a long while before one of them finally spoke:

"Although none of us personally experienced the era of the Execution Stone of Destruction, we are still a generation affected by its legacy..."

"I thought this thing had been completely destroyed ten thousand years ago, but I never expected..."

"Sigh, let's hurry and go inform them."

At this moment, most people in Banxiang City were unaware that the minor incident at the No. 79 Test Platform had quietly caused a great uproar among the higher-ups.

Unlike the first round, the results of this second round of the Talisman Master Assembly did not take until the next day. Instead, they were available immediately after all the talisman test results were completed.

If you have more than five qualified talismans, you will advance directly to the next level.

Five talismans are considered pending. After testing, these pending talismans are sent to the back office, where professional talisman masters from the Talisman Sect quickly compare the quality of all their talismans and eliminate half of them. The remaining half successfully advance.

Those who have fewer than five qualified talismans remaining will have their journey in this Talisman Master Assembly come to an end.

Lin Xiao and his companion watched until late at night, eager to see the outcome of Liu Chun's competition.

For monks who don't need much sleep, the night is no different except that the surrounding light dims.

They seemed even more excited at night.

At this moment, the crowds surrounding the Talisman Master Assembly seemed even larger and more lively than Celestial Person.

The Talisman Master Assembly was quite efficient.

The second round of competitions ended before midnight.

The final results will be out soon.

Before the final results were announced, members of the Talisman Master Assembly posted an explanation of the situation that had occurred at Talisman Test Platform No. 79 that day, along with the final outcome.

Lin Xiao and Jiang Youfu used their Divine Sense to read the contents of the notice.

The gist of it is that five of Liu Chun's talismans were tampered with, but the first five were all qualified. Although they were tampered with, for the sake of fairness, he was still included in the pending group.

Then, the talisman masters of the Talisman Sect jointly assessed the quality of his talismans.

As a result, Liu Chun, who had been living in a remote corner of Yuanling City, working as a talisman worshipper for the Wu Household and remaining largely unknown, suddenly became a hot topic in Banxiang City.

After reading the notice, the onlookers around the Talisman Master Assembly were all astonished upon closer inspection.

This talisman master named Liu Chun seems to be quite powerful.

Hey, did you see that notice?

"Look at this! Have you heard of this talisman master, Liu? Out of ten talismans, five were tampered with, and the other five, which weren't tampered with, are all up to standard! Do you think his opponents were too weak, or that he himself is too strong?"

"What? Of all the talisman masters who came to participate in the Talisman Master Assembly, apart from the very top few, who dares to say that every single one of their ten basic talismans is superior to everyone else's? I think, if this person isn't truly powerful, then they're just incredibly lucky!"

"We'll find out by waiting and seeing how he fares in the waiting group. If his opponent is too weak rather than his own talismans being powerful, he'll likely be eliminated from the waiting group."

"It must be luck, right? If he were really that amazing, we should have at least heard of him, right? Have you? Have you?"

"But if he successfully gets promoted, it's very likely that he's genuinely very capable..."

"That's not necessarily true..."

Jiang Youfu listened intently to the people around him discussing their sect's Elder Liu. When he heard them say that Liu Chun might just be lucky, he somewhat displeased and transmitted his voice to Lin Xiao:

"Hmph, Elder Liu will definitely advance successfully in a moment. And not just this round, but after Elder Liu fights his way through all the challenges to the end, let's see what these people have to say then."

The Talisman Master Assembly didn't keep the audience waiting long.

As the bright moon hung high in the dark night sky, the list of those who advanced was announced.

Just like the first match, a densely packed list of gold names shone brightly in the air.

At this moment, almost everyone forgot about their friends or other people; the first name they all looked for was the same— Liu Chun.

Lin Xiao and Jiang Youfu ignored the discussions around them and immediately focused their attention on searching through the list.

In just a moment, everyone searching for this name saw the name Liu Chun shining brightly in the golden list in the air.
