Seeing this, Fu Chen smiled and said slowly, "The final result of the competition is already decided. I hereby announce that the champion of this year's Talisman Gathering is …"
As he spoke, Fu Chen shifted his gaze to Ye Mo. Instantly, everyone's gaze shifted to Ye Mo as well.
"He is. Ye Mo! "
Whoosh!
As soon as Fu Chen's words landed, a deafening sound rang out. Everyone started cheering. They were not only witnessing the birth of the champion of the Talisman Gathering, but also witnessing the emergence of a peerless expert in both martial and talisman cultivation.
However, Ye Mo didn't have much of an expression on his face. Instead, he frowned. When he collided with the seal earlier, the Dead Soul Demon Emperor suddenly let out a cry of surprise. It wasn't just the Dead Soul Demon Emperor. Even Ye Mo had sensed the presence of the Spirit Aura within the seal.
In other words, this black-clothed woman with the bamboo hat was very likely someone from the Spirit Continent.
The other participants all looked at Ye Mo enviously. As the champion of the Talisman Gathering, both his reputation and status had skyrocketed. Even the seven super powers had to be polite to him.
Furthermore, Ye Mo was also the champion of both martial and talisman cultivation. In the entire history of the continent, this had never happened before.
At that moment, any youngster would be overshadowed by Ye Mo, because he was the most dazzling existence on this continent.
There wasn't any expression on Fu Si's face. On the contrary, there wasn't any rage in Ling Yan's eyes. Instead, there was jealousy. His previous actions were laughable at this moment. If he still had thoughts of revenge in the past, he couldn't raise any thoughts of revenge at this moment.
Of course, the person who was the most furious was naturally Fu Rong. However, she was wearing a bamboo hat, so no one could see her expression clearly. At that moment, she even wanted to kill Ye Mo.
She could do whatever she wanted to the others, but she had to be wary of Fu Chen. In the past, she wasn't Fu Chen's match, and now, she was even more so.
"Alright, now, I will hand out the rewards for the top ten. Every day, one Heavenly Craft Manual. Come up and receive your rewards!"
As Fu Chen spoke, the ten participants slowly walked up to the high platform according to their rankings. Each of them received a book of superb craftsmanship from Fu Chen's hands. This was also a type of jade scroll that was inscribed by Fu Chen and could not be copied or fabricated.
After the top ten contestants received their Ingenious Workmanship, there were only four people left on the high platform.
Fu Chen, Ye Mo, Fu Rong, and Fu Si.
"According to the rules of the competition, the three of you can become my final disciples!"
Fu Chen looked at Fu Rong and said indifferently.
Everyone revealed envious expressions. Being able to become Fu Chen's last disciple was the greatest highlight of this Talisman Gathering.
Pu!
Suddenly, Fu Si knelt down, lowered his head and said, "Master, Fu Si has disgraced the Fu Sect and failed to win the championship for the Fu Sect. Please punish me!"
"Fu Si, you can't be blamed for this matter. Your talent is already very good. If you want to blame someone, blame this era for producing a monster."
Indeed, Fu Chen was extremely satisfied with Fu Si. In fact, he was even considering teaching him the Symbol Sect. However, if one wanted to become the sect master of the Symbol Sect, one would have to undergo many trials. Thus, Fu Chen had never accepted Fu Si as his direct disciple.
"No, Martial Ancestor, please punish me. I am determined to be the champion of this Talisman Gathering."
Fu Si blamed himself.
"Hehe!"
Fu Chen nodded his head in satisfaction. Slowly, he walked over and helped Fu Si to his feet.
But the next moment, something unexpected happened.
Pu chi!
Without any warning, a black dagger pierced into Fu Chen's abdomen. Fu Chen's expression changed as he sent Fu Si flying with a slap. The black dagger was still in Fu Chen's abdomen.
It wasn't just Ye Mo. Everyone in the audience was stunned. Fu Si had sneakily attacked Fu Chen. What was going on?
"This is the Shadow Cutting Dagger?"
Fu Chen pulled out the dagger. Looking at the blood-stained dagger, his face turned extremely gloomy. The dagger was an Immortal artefact. Additionally, it was also an assassination dagger. Like the Solitary Black Cloak, it was capable of concealing its own spiritual fluctuations. It was the best dagger for the dao of assassination.
If not for this dagger, there was no way Fu Chen wouldn't have been able to detect his opponent's sneak attack.
Swish, swish, swish!
With this sudden change, more than ten figures descended from the pagoda and landed in front of Fu Chen. They all looked to be elders in their seventies.
"Teacher, are you alright?"
One of the old ladies asked with concern. This person was Yao Xuanzi.
"I'm fine! Activate the Transportation Magical Formation and send everyone away! "
Fu Chen instructed. Slowly, he looked at Fu Si, who was slowly getting up. He said coldly, "Why are you doing this?"
"Do you even need to ask?"
Fu Si sneered and roared, "Fu Chen, I was born in the Talisman Sect. When I was cultivating the Talisman Technique, I worked harder than anyone else. My life's goal was to become your disciple. However, you didn't even have the slightest intention of taking me in as a disciple. Instead, it was those disciples who were less talented than me who were guided by you and accepted as your personal disciples. Why? Why? "
"Is this the reason why you joined forces with Fu Rong to betray me?"
Fu Chen said coldly.
"Fu Chen, looks like you already knew."
Fu Rong took off her bamboo hat, revealing a pale face. She looked to be in her 50s, and there were many wrinkles on her face.
"I don't know. But when you handed the seal to Fu Si, I vaguely guessed something."
Fu Chen shook his head. The wound on his abdomen had already been stopped. But that attack had hit his vitals, greatly reducing his strength.
"Three years ago, I infiltrated the Talisman Sect once, wanting to investigate the evil rune spirit. However, I learned that you had sealed the evil rune spirit within the Heavenly Talisman Tower. Initially, I thought that I would return empty-handed, but in the end, I met Fourth Talisman. I imparted my inscriptions to him, one that's even more powerful than yours. Hence, he accepted me as his master."
Fu Rong said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ye Mo understood the reason behind it. It seemed that this lady called Fu Rong had some sort of grudge with Fu Chen. Although Fu Si had ambushed Fu Chen, with so many experts present, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Yao Xuanzi, protect Ye Mo. Today, I'm going to clean up the sect."
As they spoke, the originally noisy environment turned silent. All the spectators were teleported away. On the plaza, apart from the people of the Seal Clan, there were only the participants.
"Fu Chen, so you've been prepared. But do you think you can defeat me like this? Now that you've been stabbed, you're no match for me. Once I get rid of you, no one in the Seal Clan will be a match for me. And Ye Mo, I'll kill you with my own hands. Your existence will be a threat to the Spirit Soul Mainland! "
Fu Rong slowly rose into the air. Her arrogant voice rang out, as if she was looking down on the heavens and earth.
