These four people usually focus most of their energy on the study of talisman formations. Apart from teaching, they rarely appear in Gaofu Academy. However, this time they appeared together, of course for this grand entrance examination.
As soon as the four legendary talisman masters walked in and saw the old man, their eyes couldn't help but light up. They walked over with smiles on their faces and said, "Teacher, I didn't expect you to be here too!"
Sha Qing, the eldest among the four, laughed loudly and said: "Teacher, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why do you have time to come to the college today?"
The old man chuckled and didn't answer. The four of them suddenly had an ominous premonition. Huo He said in surprise: "Teacher, are you... planning to steal someone from us?"
As soon as these words came out, the four people all stared at the old man with eight eyes.
"You guessed it right."
Xue Na smiled.
The expressions of the four people all changed. Qi Lun said with a bitter face: "Teacher, why didn't you tell me earlier?
We just had a fight over those two talented young talents, and we finally decided the winner. If you keep trying to steal people, isn't this forcing us to fight again?"
The old man said with a straight face: "What, you are not happy?"
The four people smiled bitterly and said: "How dare you not be happy? You always have the final say in this college. We are just your students. We can do whatever you say."
But teacher, do you really want to give us a junior brother?"
The old man's expression became serious, he was silent for a moment and said: "You also know that I am getting older and there is not much possibility for me to continue to make progress.
In recent years, I have been working hard, hoping to understand the true meaning of the talisman formation, but I have been stuck at the last step and can never move forward.
If I cannot come into contact with the truth in my lifetime, then I hope to leave my experience and knowledge behind to give future generations more opportunities!"
The expressions of the four people suddenly became solemn. Qi Lun bowed his head and said: "Teacher, I'm sorry! If we can work harder, you won't have to work so hard!"
The other three people also showed sad expressions.
They are all top talisman masters, and they also know how difficult this road to talisman formation is. Even if a top genius devotes a lifetime of hard work, he may not be able to visit all the scenery on this road.
But some people are still happy with it, still persevering, and still moving forward.
The old man is undoubtedly such a person. They can't compare to him and can only admire him.
"You don't have to be like this, everyone has their own way.
I just hope that one of the two good prospects this time can inherit my mantle."
The old man said with emotion.
Everyone's eyes were fixed and they looked outside together.
There are tens of thousands of candidates, all of whom are young talents with a little talent in the talisman formation. They are entering each examination room, preparing to embark on this difficult, long and thorny road.
Can any of these people meet the old man's requirements?
Everyone was thinking silently.
In the domed hall, the old man and Xue Na were sitting in the middle. The four deans were on both sides. The eyes of the six people fell on a huge crystal mirror in the center.
All the information about this exam is stored in the crystal mirror. If necessary, you can query it by inputting a trace of soul power.
While flipping through the list of candidates, Ma Lie said: "The number of exchange students from Daxi Country has increased significantly this time, reaching 130 people, and at least 20 of them are related to Hidden Soul!"
Hidden Soul is the code name of a special agent force, and is the collective name for the elite agents of Daxi Kingdom, which is equivalent to the Six Gates of the Yunteng Empire and the Falcon of the Dachu Kingdom.
Almost every year, among the exchange students from Sith, there will be people with hidden eyes and ears set up by the Hidden Soul, and Daqi has long been accustomed to this.
If it weren't for the convention between the Talisman Masters Association, Daxi people would have been banned from applying for the Higher Talisman Academy a long time ago.
"The ones you found were twenty, and there are at least three or five that you didn't find, right?
In short, people in Daxi cannot be trusted, they can learn superficial things, but they must not be exposed to the real core secrets."
The old man said calmly.
"We understand."
Several people nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, Xue Na said in surprise: "Strange, why did Yunteng send four exchange students this time?"
Everyone was stunned, and they all used their soul power to check, and sure enough they saw that there were only four names on the list of Yunteng's exchange students.
The old man frowned slightly and said: "Yunteng's national power has been declining in recent years, and his spirit is not even as good as that of an old man like me. It is really hard to imagine that fifty years ago they were still the strongest country in the Five Wheels Peak world!"
"It will naturally become like this if it is stubborn and rotten."
Sha Qing said disdainfully, "The number of exchange students sent by Yunteng has been decreasing in recent years. It is said that the country cannot select talented people, and their financial situation is very poor, and exchange students even need to pay their own travel expenses.
If they do this, no wonder there are only four students here this year, and I guess there won’t even be four next year!”
"Alas..." Several people shook their heads and sighed.
"Even these four people's resumes are not very good."
Qi Lun sneered.
"oh?
What's wrong?"
the old man asked.
"These two young men have a pretty good foundation. They are both Glory Talisman Masters. For their age, they are not too outstanding but not weak either.
If you study hard here, you may reach a higher level in ten years.
But the other two...are they here to make up the numbers?"
Qi Lun shook his head and said.
Everyone looked at it curiously, and upon seeing it, their expressions became a little strange.
On the crystal mirror, pieces of information flashed before their eyes. After seeing the display clearly, several people's faces became a little ugly.
"What a nonsense! There are only four exchange students sent in total, and there are two others who make up the number. Is Yunteng just a loser?"
The old man snorted coldly, looking very unhappy.
Xue Na read the information on the crystal mirror word by word and said: "This female exchange student is in her thirties, and she is actually a just beginning Talisman Master. She can actually participate in the High Talisman Academy with such talent.
The exam is really..." She sighed and shook her head, and when her eyes fell on the information about the last exchange student, she couldn't help but become speechless.
"And this guy named Li Xuan... is only twenty years old, and he doesn't even have the rank of a Talisman Master! Is he here to travel?"
Xue Na said angrily.
"If the Yunteng Empire despises our Gaofuyuan so much, I think we should carefully consider our attitude towards them in the future.
Even though we are allies, we cannot let them humiliate the level of Gaofuyuan like this! These people can also enter the examination room, which is simply an insult to other candidates and an insult to us!"
