Under everyone's gaze, Lu Xuan shook his head and said apologetically, "Thank you for elder's kindness. However, this disciple only wishes to pursue martial arts. Practicing enchantment is merely to increase my Mental Energy and aid in the advancement of martial arts."
"Hey, don't you think you don't know how to appreciate kindness?" A sweet-sounding voice came from behind Lu Xuan. It was the young lady standing behind him. At this moment, she was looking at Lu Xuan with a face full of anger.
Hearing Lu Xuan's words, it seemed that he looked down on the Enchantment Hall. As a member of the Enchantment Hall, she naturally felt a little indignant.
Lu Xuan turned his head when he heard this. Only then did he realize that 'Little Mantou' was standing behind him. Faced with her accusation, he immediately revealed an awkward expression. He also realized that it was indeed a little inappropriate to reject Elder Fang's invitation in front of all the elders of the Enchantment Hall. He hurriedly explained, "This disciple has absolutely no intention of looking down on the Enchantment Hall. The art of enchantment is an extremely broad and profound skill. It is not inferior to martial arts at all. However, this disciple has martial arts in his heart and only wishes to climb to the peak of martial arts. I hope elder can forgive me."
After hearing Lu Xuan's words, Elder Fang did not have the slightest displeasure. Instead, she laughed out loud and said, "You brat, your martial heart is very firm. However, the more it is like this, the more I cannot let you off. Since my reputation is not enough, I can only let someone with a greater reputation take action."
After saying this, Elder Fang kept the Berserk Scroll on the table and passed it to an elder behind her. "Elder Qin, take this Berserk Scroll and let the hall master take a look. Lu Xuan, why don't you wait here for a while? In any case, you also need to go through the procedures to become an Intermediate Enchanter. It won't take up your time."
Upon hearing this, Elder Qin took Lu Xuan's work and left. It was likely that he was going to look for the chief of the Enchanting Hall. Elder Fang's last sentence was naturally directed at Lu Xuan. Her tone was quite amiable and it was as though she was discussing something. She did not have the slightest arrogance that an elder would have towards his disciple.
In this regard, Lu Xuan could only smile bitterly. He only wanted to enter the Enchantment Hall and use its resources to train his mental strength. How did he get into trouble again? However, he had already made up his mind. Even if the Hall Master were to personally intervene, he would absolutely not give up on martial arts. In this world, strength was everything. No matter how powerful one's enchantment was, wouldn't they still have to rely on others' charity?
In order to not let Lu Xuan wait in vain, Elder Fang waved her hand to summon a deacon and asked him to help Lu Xuan collect the Intermediate Enchanter's robe and identity token. Regardless of whether Lu Xuan chose to join the Enchantment Hall or not, this was something that had to be done. However, according to logic, it should be done after the examination was over. Right now, Elder Fang could be considered to have opened the back door for Lu Xuan.
Seeing that Lu Xuan's examination was over, the young lady behind him immediately walked forward and intimately held onto Elder Fang's arm. She glared at Lu Xuan and said without hesitation, "Grandpa Fan, what's so good about this brat? Why do you insist on letting him join our Enchantment Hall? It's as if we are begging him."
These words were not deliberately concealed, so naturally, they fell into Lu Xuan's ears. Regarding this, he could only rub his nose and pretend that he didn't hear it. Little girl, didn't I just look at you a little too much? Two small steamed buns, there's nothing much to look at. Is there a need to hold a grudge? I won't argue with you.
Elder Fang smiled helplessly, "You little girl, why can't you speak properly? The Berserk Scroll that Lu Xuan inscribed has now been sent to your father. Later, if you are interested, you can bring it over and take a look. You will understand. Although your talent is not bad, it pales in comparison to him."
Hearing Elder Fang's words, Lu Xuan couldn't help but look at the young lady again. It seemed like this young lady was the daughter of the Hall Lord. No wonder she had such a big reaction to his words.
Noticing that Lu Xuan was looking at her again, the young lady didn't show any weakness and stared back at him. Her face was full of provocation. Then, she handed the scroll in her hand to Elder Fang and said, "I don't believe that he is that powerful. This time, I also inscribed a Berserk Scroll. Grandpa Fan, take a look and see what evaluation I can get."
Although she was the daughter of the Hall Lord and had learned enchantment magic from her father since she was young, she had never taken the examination to become an enchantment master. This time, she was here to officially participate in the enchantment master's examination to become an enchantment master.
Elder Fang took the scroll from the young lady and slowly spread it out. Out of curiosity, Lu Xuan also moved closer to see what level it was. Although Lu Xuan's enchantment level might not be as high as these elders, his insight was definitely not inferior to theirs. In his memory, the level of the ancient enchantment technique was much higher than the average.
After a careful glance, Lu Xuan discovered that although this young lady's enchantment was not as good as his, it was still much better than Xia Chenxi's. After all, she had specialized in enchantment since young, while Xia Chenxi also practiced martial arts.
This Berserk Talisman was engraved in an orderly manner. Every main talisman was engraved in a very orderly manner. The layout was very clear. It could be seen that she had gone through a lot of practice, received guidance from a famous teacher, and received systematic instruction.
However, in terms of the details, it was slightly unsatisfactory. Although it did not affect the overall effect of the talisman, it was slightly lacking in terms of aesthetics. It looked a little messy. Of course, in the eyes of Lu Xuan, the biggest flaw was still in the handling of the medicinal properties. This young lady also chose to suppress the violent medicinal properties instead of dredging them.
While looking, Elder Fang pointed out various shortcomings to the young lady. Although she was somewhat unconvinced, the young lady could only admit that this talisman of hers was indeed far from reaching the level of perfection. However, she felt that it was quite good that she could engrave it to this level. When engraving the talisman, there could not be the slightest pause. It had to be done in one go. Her nerves were tense, so how could she have so much time to think about other things?
"Compared to the previous time, you have improved quite a bit. It seems that you have put in a lot of hard work. This time, this Berserk Talisman, I can barely give you an evaluation of eight out of ten," Elder Fang said.
"Actually, excluding the aesthetic factors, it is considered not bad. There is not a single mistake in the overall layout. If you can change the few 'suppress' talismans into 'turn' talismans, and then add a 'merge' talisman in these few places, the power of this Berserk Talisman should be able to increase by another ten percent."
Suddenly, a voice sounded. Elder Fang and the young lady could not help but turn their heads, only to see Lu Xuan speaking while releasing a wisp of Yuan Power. He marked a few places on the talisman and gave his own suggestions for improvement.
Hearing Lu Xuan's suggestion, the young lady and Elder Fang could not help but simulate the situation in their minds. Immediately, a surprised look appeared on their faces. They realized that if they followed Lu Xuan's changes, the medicinal properties of the Berserk Talisman would immediately be released a little, but it would not cause any conflict. The power would indeed increase greatly!
"Lu Xuan, with your talent, it would be a pity if you did not join my Enchantment Hall!" Elder Fang could not help but exclaim. Just by taking a look at the talisman, he was able to give corresponding suggestions for improvement. What kind of ability did this require? The structure of every talisman was tempered thousands of times and could not be easily changed. But now, not only did Lu Xuan change it, he did it in a few breaths' time.
If Lu Xuan had only drawn the previous talisman, it could be understood that it was taught by others. But now, he was able to make targeted improvements in the blink of an eye. This required his own ability.
Hearing Elder Fang's praise, Lu Xuan was a little speechless. He was able to give suggestions for improvement in an instant, not because his talent was really that terrifying, but because the concept of the Ancient Enchantment Technique was already deeply engraved in his mind, so it was naturally easy for him to take it out.
However, the reason why he opened his mouth was not to gain Elder Fang's praise, but purely because of the competitive nature of a young man. Just now, this young lady looked down on him, so he had to show it off. Men always had an inexplicable desire to show off in front of women.
Obviously, this move of Lu Xuan's was effective. The unfriendly look in the young lady's eyes when she looked at Lu Xuan had disappeared. Replacing it was a strange look. Curiosity, surprise, admiration, all kinds of emotions were present. It was very complicated.
"Haha, Xiao Han, are you convinced now? My evaluation of twelve points is not given casually. Even if your father saw it, he would definitely agree with my evaluation. " Elder Fang stroked the beard on his chin and said with a smile. Then, a thought occurred to him. This Lu Xuan suddenly gave pointers to Xiao Han. Could it be that he was interested in Xiao Han?
Thinking of this, Elder Fang could not help but carefully look at Lu Xuan. Hmm, he can be counted as a talented man. He is not inferior to me when I was young. Looking at Xiao Han, she is also beautiful. They are a good match.
"Xiao Han, although Lu Xuan has not studied enchantment for a long time, his talent is extraordinary. Both of you are young, you can get to know each other and learn from each other."
Xiao Han nodded obediently. Just now, Lu Xuan's casual words had suddenly enlightened her. It was indeed worth her asking for guidance. Of course, she would not know what Elder Fang was planning.
"Hey, I am Chen Xiao Han. How long have you been in Wind Sword School?" Xiao Han was not shy and took the initiative to greet Lu Xuan.
"Three months. Also, I am Lu Xuan, not Hey." Lu Xuan said seriously.
"Hey, Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan. Okay, I did not even care about you peeking at me. You are still holding a grudge? So narrow-minded. "
"I think I have to make it clear. I did not peek at you. You just happened to look at me when I was looking at you."
"Then if I did not look at you, doesn't that mean you were peeking at me?"
"… What is there to look at? There are many beauties in my Sword Sect. All of their figures are better than yours. I might as well look at them!"
"You! You are perverted! So shameless! "
Just as Chen Xiao Han was blushing from Lu Xuan's dirty words, the side door suddenly opened. Elder Qin, who had left earlier, had returned.
"Lu Xuan, the Hall Master invites you!"
