Chapter 339: How to Win Approval?

Upon hearing this, Fang Ao and the others immediately stated that Purple Lightning Talismans were too scarce, and they didn't have enough to sell.

Fang Mosheng nodded with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, then looked at Fang Chen with a sense of curiosity. "What’s that sect that’s behind him that can provide him with over a hundred Purple Lightning Talismans?”

Fang Chen had already started drawing on his talisman paper by now. He was planning on crafting a Divine Movement Talisman.

Fang Chen’s strokes were vigorous and powerful, and although his spiritual energy surged, there was no sign of instability.

Several Foundation Building Realm cultivators noticed this and nodded in approval.

"It seems that the sect he was in before he came to the third branch indeed owns a talisman-crafting inheritance. He’s quite skilled in this field, much better than all of us."

Another Foundation Building Realm cultivator nodded. "Although the Divine Movement Talisman is simple, and we can easily craft it, there aren’t many in the younger generation who craft it while this steady.”

"Without a talisman inheritance, it’s only parlor tricks...” remarked Fang Mosheng lightly.

Fang Ao and the others exchanged glances upon hearing what he said, but they chose to remain silent.

In the blink of an eye, two hours went by.

Fang Chen was deliberately slowing down his pace, but he had no choice but to complete the talisman before him!

By now, there were only four people left. Three were drawing talismans while the last was trying to refine a pill.

Two of the disciples crafting talismans were sweating profusely and seemed extremely focused. They were only crafting basic Strenght Talismans but they made it seem as though every stroke was a terrible challenge!

The pill master looked even more exhausted, his complexion was turning extremely pale as he struggled to control the fire under the furnace. Suddenly, a wisp of white smoke emerged from the pill furnace, followed by a foul smell that invaded everyone's noses. The disciple sighed lightly and left with the pill furnace in tow.

Fang Jue, who had been observing Fang Chen all this while, couldn't help but comment, "Looks like Fang Chen’s quite skilled at talisman crafting.”

He noticed that Fang Chen seemed much more relaxed compared to the other two competitors.

Jing Jing casually remarked, “Isn’t he just crafting a Divine Movement Talisman? I heard from Fang Ao that he delved into talisman crafting back when he was at his previous sect.”

"It’s a good thing to have a disciple in the third branch who excels in talisman crafting," added Fang Jue.

Fang Ao's wife paused for a moment, pondering, then nodded slowly. "Indeed, that would be a good thing."

"What a cunning young girl. Truly a troublesome brat," said Jing Jing coldly.

Fang Yun’s gaze turned unfriendly. "Mother, is Fang Lingxing deliberately trying to embarrass father?"

Jing Jing nodded lightly. "Yes, this should be Fang Mosheng's idea. He and your father have never gotten along."

Glaring at Fang Linxing, Fang Yun clenched her fists.

On the other side, Wu Ruochou seemed pensive. "Junior Brother, she seems to be testing Young Master Fang."

Xia Ji nodded slightly, smiling faintly. "I can see that. However, her efforts are destined to fail."

Wu Ruochou nodded gently. If what Xia Ji had said about Fang Chen was true, they didn’t need to put a mere Fang Lingxing in their eyes. Even the Foundation Building Realm cultivators present wouldn’t be able to do anything to him!

"Enough," Fang Ao's voice rang out.

The crowd immediately quieted down.

Fang Ao glanced at everyone and said calmly, "Fang Chen’s status is special. For him to live in a unique courtyard is nothing. Stop making a fuss."

He has a special status? Fang Lingxing furrowed her brow slightly. She didn't know Fang Chen's background, as all Foundation Building Realm cultivators were required to keep it confidential. Fang Mosheng hadn't told her either.

Fang Lingxing spoke slowly. "Elder Fang Ao, I'm afraid such a reason may not convince everyone, right?"

“Indeed, Fang Lingxing is remarkable. Amongst the younger generation, few would dare speak to a Foundation Building Realm cultivator this way.”

The crowd was secretly amazed.

At that moment, Fang Chen suddenly spoke up. "How am I supposed to satisfy all of you, then?”

Fang Lingxing smiled and replied, "You must prove that you are worthy of living in the unique courtyard. If you can withstand ten moves against me, you can be considered worthy.”

The crowd's expressions turned somewhat strange. He needed to withstand ten moves from Fang Lingxing to be considered worthy of the courtyard?

It was known that even the third branch’s Fang Jue didn't have the qualification to live in the unique courtyard. Was Fang Lingxing insinuating that there wasn’t anyone in the third branch who could withstand ten moves against her?

The third branch disciple had been siding with Fang Lingxing all this time, as they were unhappy with Fang Chen, but when they heard her say those words, their expressions changed, and they looked at her warily.
