Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 140: There’s actually a master?

Chapter 140: Chapter 140: There’s actually a master?

On the day of the combat assessment, although Jiang Cheng’s performance left a deep impression on the teachers and students of the Treasure and Talismans Academy, when the perspective was broadened to all five arenas, Jiang Cheng was not the only standout new student.

1082 was also a thorn in the side of Director Li from the recruitment office.

In the character assessment, 1082 stayed true to his nature, dedicated to slaughtering everyone who fell into the water.

In the aesthetic assessment, 1082 performed a sword dance on the lake, and with a kick, he produced a painting that scored 75 points, “Gu Sheng Practicing Sword on the Lake”.

During yesterday’s combat assessment, as a candidate from the Sword Cultivation Department of Lotus University’s Special Cultivation Academy, 1082 stepped onto the arena prepared by the Special Cultivation Academy.

Then, with a sword in one hand and not using a single spell, he defeated his senior opponent without giving them a chance to fight back!

In the end, clad in white, he unquestionably achieved a “perfect” score.

Although 1082 did not like being human, there was no doubt about his strength within the Sword Cultivation Department.

And the Sword Cultivation Department did not care whether 1082 wanted to be human or not.

Because the nickname for the “Special Cultivation Academy” was “Special Mental Asylum”.

Whether they were “Body Cultivators”, “Sword Cultivators”, “Poison Cultivators”, or “Puppeteers”, anyone who entered the Special Cultivation Academy and still wanted to be human was someone whose practice had not yet reached perfection.

When someone like 1082 entered the Illusion Breaking exam with elements of the Demonic Tao, the teachers in the resting room all felt that 1082 might be more like the Demonic Tao than the Demonic Tao itself!

Six minutes after the start of the illusion assessment, a clear prompt sounded throughout the examination venue, indicating someone had just completed the Illusion Breaking assessment in only six minutes!

The candidates awaiting their turns, the spectators gathered outside for amusement, and the teachers in the resting room, all spontaneously turned their attention to the ongoing examination arena.

One candidate slowly began to wake up.

Just as everyone had anticipated, he was none other than 1082, who seemed more like the Demonic Tao than the Demonic Tao itself!

After 1082 woke up, the Shadow Capture Array, uncharacteristically, did not begin with a highlight reel. It appeared the content may have been too inappropriate for young audiences and was stuck in review.

The Shadow Capture Array’s light screen first displayed 1082’s exam score.

A dazzling 90 points appeared before the crowd.

“For just six minutes, 90 points is indeed about right.”

“Yes, completing it in six minutes means 1082 only stayed two days in the illusion.”

“Finding the Demonic Tao in two days is already quite impressive.”

“It’s about right, I remember in the past sessions, the fastest ones took two to three days to find it. After all, you have to get accustomed to the identity and the environment upon entering, then casually investigate and collect evidence. Two days would pass just like that.”

“Ah, the fastest was only two days? Was there no one who cleared it in one day?”

“One day? How could that be possible! Unless they cheated, I can’t imagine finding and defeating the concealed Demonic Tao in one day.”

Mao Lang and Liu Lingshen could not get a word in edgewise, mainly because they were not interested in 1082.

They were Talisman Masters and did not share common ground with the lunatics of the mental asylum.

Sword Cultivators, Body Cultivators, Puppeteers formed their own cultivation factions.

Talisman Masters, Pill Masters, Artifact Refiners, Array Masters were professions branching off the traditional Cultivating Immortality system.

No matter how extraordinary 1082 was, the Treasure and Talismans Academy remained unaffected.

Instead of listening to teachers from other departments bragging, it would be better to pay attention to which promising new students had emerged besides Jiang Cheng.

It looked like 1002 was quite impressive.

Although his mind might not be much better, he was still much more honest than Jiang Cheng.

After a slight delay of more than a minute, 1082’s performance in the illusion finally began to unfold before everyone through the “highlight reel”.

The first thing everyone saw was a young man with a delicate and handsome face within the illusion.

That must be the identity 1082 had assumed in the illusion.

The handsome youth took out a storage bag.

This was allowed because the items that candidates brought with them could be used within the illusion.

All right, 1082 took out his signature magical sword treasure from the storage bag!

Unlike the pretty swords of the Treasure Department’s beloved 1003, 1082’s sword treasure looked tough enough to cut through iron like mud.

We saw 1082 walking down the street with his sword in hand.

1082 grabbed a person.

1082 dragged them into an alley.

Torture begins!

The teachers of groups one and three in the rest area: ???

1082 obtained a vital clue through torture!

The teachers: Huh?

1082 got a clue!

1082 dashed onto the streets!

1082 caught another person again!

Torture begins!

The highlight reel of 1082’s record-breaking run, lasting just over a minute, was dazzling to watch.

Throughout the course, 1082 kept repeating the cycle of capturing people, torturing, capturing more people, torturing, fiercely capturing people, and fiercely torturing them.

In the end, 1082 replaced the murderer and was frantically chased by all the constables of the town!

Then there was an encounter battle where all the cultivators of the town ambushed 1082.

The last cut ends.

“I take back what I said earlier, 1082 finding Demonic Tao and killing it was purely luck! He doesn’t deserve the 90 points at all!” a teacher said indignantly.

“Although most of 1082’s torture was futile, he did indeed find quite a few clues, so we can’t say his actions were entirely ineffective. Of course, the most important thing is that the scores for the Illusion Breaking test are strongly correlated with time. The faster you clear it, the easier it is to score high,” another teacher stepped in to explain.

“Don’t you think it’s unreasonable to score based on clearing time? Didn’t 1083 just pass through sheer luck and brute force? How does that test the students’ intelligence?”

“Calm down. A student who blindly charges through like 1082 is, after all, a very rare exception. Look at our first batch of test-takers, besides him, who else would clear it in that manner?”

“We have to admit it, luck is also a part of strength.”

“Hey? The teachers from group two are back! Quickly ask them how it felt to be tormented by 1082!”

Mao Lang and Liu Lingshen, who had been spectating the whole time, pricked up their ears to listen.

They found it quite interesting to encounter a student like 1082 who didn’t play by the rules.

But there was only one 1082, and since group two had encountered him, they in group three would not.

They could only listen to their experiences and satisfy their curiosity through stories.

The teachers from group two, when mentioning 1082, waved their hands dismissively, “Let’s not talk about him, thankfully, he’s not from our department. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have peaceful days for the next few years.”

“He really can fight! Running through three streets without even gasping for breath!”

“Really?”

“Why would I lie to you? That kid is a natural-born fighter! The Special Cultivation Academy hit the jackpot this year.”

Shortly after the teachers from group two returned to the rest area, Mao Lang and Liu Lingshen’s group three rushed to the testing site, ready to enter the Illusion Realm and begin their journey of evaluation.

The afternoon time passed by slowly.

As rounds of test-takers awoke from the Illusion Realm, their freshman evaluations also came to an end at this moment.

However, it’s a pity that no one managed to break the record of 1082’s six-minute speedrun through the Illusion Realm, which had earned him 90 points.

Many people turned their attention to Jiang Cheng, who frequently created miracles.

And Jiang Cheng, now under the watchful eyes of everyone, came into the Illusion Realm testing area and slowly closed his eyes.

Not just the students, but the teachers from groups one and two in the rest area, were also looking forward to Jiang Cheng’s performance.

After all, with Jiang Cheng’s previous four full scores on record, everyone was expecting whether he could get five full scores.

Five full scores is not unheard of in the history of Lotus University, it’s just that it hasn’t happened in a very long time.

A teacher said, “You guys keep watching, I’m thirsty, I’m going to make some tea.”

“You’re going to drink tea now? Aren’t you afraid of missing out on the excitement?”

“I’m just making tea, not performing a full tea ceremony. Making a tea, it’s a matter of two minutes, I don’t believe that…”

Ring.

The alert sounded, a student had cleared the Illusion Realm!

The teachers in the rest area widened their eyes in shock: “Huh? There’s actually another master?”
