Chapter 342: Turn the Tables

When Yan Jun and the two heard Lou Mu Yan’s name, they all smiled bitterly.
She really did guess right.

Although Lou Mu Yan was plotted against by others, but once they chose a School, it couldn’t be changed.

They had no foundation in the Eight Extremes Sect, so even if they made a big deal, they may not get the most just results.
After all, they had no evidence.

Unless they went to Elder Ao Rong who could easily resolve this matter, but they all knew Lou Mu Yan’s temperament.
She wouldn’t trouble Elder Ao for such trivial matters.

“Put away those helpless expressions of yours.” Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at them.
Even she wasn’t anxious, what were they worried about.

If she was chosen to go to some Body Cultivation School, Taming School or the like, then she might go find a way to change it, but the other party helped her fill in the Talisman School as if they knew her intentions, so she naturally turned a blind eye to it.

“You probably don’t know the situation of the Talisman School right?” Mo Ling asked meaningfully.

“Don’t know, how about you three introduce it to me?” Lou Mu Yan said with a smile.

Yan Jun sighed, “The process of refining Talismans is very complicated, and the rate of material consumption is much faster than that of Alchemists and Smiths.
So if you don’t have the talent, and your pockets are too shy, then choosing the Talisman School is basically seeking death.”

“Although there are high-level Talisman Masters in the Eight Extremes Sect, but that was hundreds of years ago.
The Talisman School is declining right now.
Not only do they have the least resources distributed to them, but even the pupils within are mostly the least talented.” Ling Fei Yang added.

“At each Grand Competition of the Sect, the Talisman School is always the existence at the bottom.” Mo Ling added a stab with a knife meanly.

Lou Mu Yan nodded.
Talisman Masters was a profession with relatively few people even in the Immortal Cultivation World where their usage was higher.

But rareness was the most precious thing.
The smaller the number of people in a specialisation, the more popular high-level Talisman Masters were, and they were fragrant buns to be snatched wherever they went.

On this Continent, refining Talismans not only required the ability to comprehend at least two among the metal attribute, fire attribute and earth attribute, but a Sword Master must also be gifted in drawing runes, and only then could one become a Talisman Master.

Of course, a Sword Master with all three attributes would be able to walk even further on this road.

Moreover, a Talisman Master was a very consuming occupation.
From the initial search for Beast Blood to the middle and latter stages of searching and purchasing Spiritual Herbs, Spars, Demonic Beast fur and skin and the like, it was all a huge expense.

Most importantly, even after spending money like running water, one may not even become a high-level Talisman Master.
Grade 3 Talisman Masters and above all required high comprehension and innovation talent, so there were very few people who could persist in refining Talismans.

“It’s perfect, I wanted to choose the Talisman School to begin with.
Since they helped me choose, I’ll accept their kindness.”

Lou Mu Yan glanced at the proud female pupil lightly, then asked the several people: “Do you know that woman? She must be the one who plotted against me this time.”

Ling Fei Yang followed her line of sight and when he saw the woman, his eyes grew cold, “She’s Xue Ling’er’s elder cousin sister.
The two have a very good relationship.
Since she deliberately played tricks on the registration list, she should have known your identity.”

Lou Mu Yan revealed an understanding expression.
So she turned out to be Xue Ling’er’s elder cousin sister.
No wonder she was so hostile to her.

In the competition space, Lou Mu Yan secretly helped Xue Ling’er all the way to pass obstacles, but when she was about to advance to the hundredth place, she pranked her and made her one step behind finishing in the hundredth place, which meant losing her qualifications to enter a Sect.

It was conceivable how unwilling and annoyed Xue Ling’er would have been to lose the qualification after being overtaken by the others in the end with only one step left.

And because the Fire Dragon that Lou Mu Yan quietly inserted into Xue Ling’er’s body slowly corroded her dan’tian, she became more and more powerless when cultivating after returning to the Xue Clan.

In addition, her dad brought back a very favoured illegitimate daughter from outside, who was very strong in temperament and very talented, soon replacing her position as the unshakable number one in the Xue Clan.

Now Xue Ling’er’s status in the Xue Clan had completely plummeted, and she even had to be humiliated and bullied by that little sister, so it was like falling from Heaven to Hell.

Her heart became even more distorted, and she finally utterly hated Lou Mu Yan.

So after hearing that Lou Mu Yan chose the Eight Extremes Sect, she sent news to her elder cousin sister who she used to have a good relationship with.
She exaggerated the rumours about how Lou Mu Yan was so hostile to the Xue Clan, and would be a great danger to the Xue Clan if she continued to develop.

So that’s why the pupil named Xue Lan’er was so hostile to Lou Mu Yan, and had been planning to get rid of her.

“Since the people of the Xue Clan like to jump around so much, then I’ll let her dance for a little while longer.
I’ll definitely repay her in the future.” Lou Mu Yan was very disgusted by these kinds of small tricks, but she was also a little more vigilant.

After all, many times, the important things were ruined by the unimportant people.
She wouldn’t belittle any enemy with evil intentions, but such a person was also not worthy of too much of her attention.

They would all have to cultivate in the same Sect in the future, so there would be more than enough times to repay her.
She didn’t like killing people with a single shot.
How boring was that—it was fun to play slowly, right?

“There’s no harm in taking more precautions against such small people in the future.” Ling Fei Yang knew Lou Mu Yan’s temperament, so he was still relieved.

After the Schools were divided up, the supervising pupils of each School gathered the people who had been divided up and brought them back.

Yan Jun and the others didn’t fail to be elected due to their excelling talents and abilities.
They agreed with Lou Mu Yan on the next meeting time and left with the supervisor in a hurry.

There were only five people who chose the Talisman School, and three were even people who were eliminated from their choices of the other Schools.

The pupil that led them appeared around thirty years old.
He was a little stern, but he was at least polite.
After explaining a little, he led them to the Talisman School.

After only a few steps, Elder Wen walked over quickly.

“Elder Wen.” The several people respectfully greeted him.

Elder Wen saw that Lou Mu Yan was neither humble nor arrogant.
He knew of the little tricks those people played, but he didn’t intervene.
He just wanted to see how she would handle this situation.

The result didn’t disappoint him.
Lou Mu Yan wasn’t angry nor frustrated just because she was assigned to the Talisman School.
Instead, she always maintained a sense of calmness, which made him appreciate it subconsciously.

This little girl’s heart was indeed different from ordinary people, and only such a person could go further on the Heaven-defying path of cultivation.

“Little Lou girl, do you want to change Schools?” Elder Wen approached Lou Mu Yan and asked in a whisper.

If Lou Mu Yan wanted to go to the Array School, he would be able to help, and he also guessed that she would change Schools.

Although his voice was soft, but the several people standing next to them all heard it.
Their eyes that looked at Lou Mu Yan couldn’t help but change.

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at Elder Wen—this old thing was just too bored, he was sick.

“Not interested.
I like the Talisman School.”

Then she blinked her eyes innocently at Elder Wen and asked: “Elder Wen, what do you mean by this? Do you look down on our Talisman School? I personally think that a Talisman Master is a promising career!”

“…” The corner of Elder Wen’s lips twitched.
This girl turned the tables, truly good!

And what did she mean by ‘our Talisman School’? She hadn’t even stepped foot past the door of the Talisman School and she was already this defensive of it?

The leading pupil’s gaze that was initially slightly disliking of Lou Mu Yan instantly softened, while the other few pupils and him looked at Elder Wen with some more scrutiny and dissatisfaction.

Elder Wen had to admit, Lou Mu Yan was definitely a cunning little fox.

Others may not know, but he was very clear that this serious-looking supervising pupil was the Direct Disciple of the Talisman School’s Headmaster.
He was a more upright person and took the Talisman School very seriously.
This time, little Lou girl had probably entered his eyes.

Having the supervising pupil, who was in charge of the affairs of the Talisman School, think someone to be pleasing, this Lou girl would definitely not have a hard time in the Talisman School in the future after entering.

“Hehe, then you can stay in the Talisman School and study well.” Seeing that the supervising pupil cast a look of dislike towards him, Elder Wen laughed dryly and left quickly.
If that old fellow in the Talisman School knew that he came to dig over the student, then the wall of his School would definitely be torn down.
