Sword Spirit

Thinking of this, her arrogance immediately returned to the level of a princess. Putting away her tools, she took her completed scroll and also walked over to Elder Fan and the others.

Currently, Lu Xuan had already arrived in front of Elder Fan and the other examiners. Greeting them, he presented his Wild Explosion scroll, saying: “Disciple has finished drawing. Elders, please examine it.”

Taking a look at Lu Xuan, Elder Fan reached out and received the scroll, secretly nodding on the inside. Neither overbearing nor humble. This young man’s personality was pretty good. More importantly, he had been paying attention to Lu Xuan from start to finish. He hadn’t panicked or rushed when drawing the scroll. His movements had flowed like water. Not only had he succeeded on his first try, he was the first even to submit a scroll.

From their perspectives, enchantment skills were not only skills, but were a kind of art. Since it was an art, naturally it should pay attention to appearance. Without a doubt, without even speaking of the enchantment scroll’s quality, at least in this aspect, Lu Xuan had already received a full score.

Elder Fan slowly opened the enchantment scroll that Lu Xuan presented, spreading it on the desk before him. The other elders behind him also moved closer in, wanting to see what scroll this kid had drawn so quickly.

These elders, all of them had immersed themselves in study enchantment skills of dozens of years. In a single look, they were stunned. This drawing was impressively the Wild Explosion rune!

Although the Wild Explosion rune belonged to middle level enchantment scrolls, due to the potency being more conflictual, in reality, drawing it was much harder than the average middle level enchantment scroll. Originally they had watched Lu Xuan relaxedly drawing and didn’t see a single failure, and his speed had been so fast, so they assumed that it had been a typical primary level rune. None of them had actually thought it would be a high difficulty Wild Explosion rune.

Elder Fan, known for his strictness, also couldn’t help but nod his head a bit and praise aloud: “Not bad. You could actually succeed in drawing a Wild Explosion rune on your first try. I can see that your basic skills are very solid, as for how much, it still needs to be closely examined.”

Each talisman was made up of countless smaller runes. Among these, every runes’ positioning, how lightly or thickly the brush was applied, or if even the potion’s concentration being dissimilar, all of them could create a certain scene. Right now, Elder Fan and the others were going to carefully observe these subtleties in order to determine what Lu Xuan’s enchantment skills were in the end.

However, after some time passed, the more the elders looked, the more amazed they were because they discovered that they didn’t fully understand this Wild Explosion rune!

From a entirety perspective, this was, without a doubt, a Wild Explosion rune, and with a rough glance, it could be seen that this Wild Explosion rune was was clearly properly arranged. Each primary rune’s position and brush stroke thickness were very accurate, but while they were carefully looking, they discovered, when each primary rune intersected, there were other carefully drawn smaller runes. These smaller runes purpose were largely to help the integration, a very clever way of connecting them together.

Even senior enchanters such as them, seeing this exquisite design, all couldn’t help but want to shout out and praise. This was simply a godly brush. The Wild Explosion’s most difficult problem, the potency conflict, due to these runes existence, had been solved.

As the saying goes, scattering is better than stifling. Previously, the measures they had adopted were**, forcefully ** potion’s Wild Explosion properties, however, this way, the Wild Explosion rune’s results were also greatly reduced. But now, the method Lu Xuan was using was scattering. The potency of the Wild Explosion rune was not only not **, instead it was used by him, vastly improving the Wild Explosion rune’s result.

(TN: Too many stars here and I’m not sure what they ought to mean. Suppressed? Idk.)

This situation appearing was not outside of Lu Xuan’s expectations. When he had draw the Wild Explosion rune previously, he had practiced many times. Although he didn’t have enough materials to use on hand, but that didn’t stop him from using the Void Drawing Rune skill, directly using yuan force to create runes in the air. His basic foundations had long since become incredibly solid.

And the ancient enchantment technique’s mechanisms had changed into pure memories in his spirit, letting him utilize it with high proficiency. He could even use pure savage wolf blood to draw runes, not to mention specialty ink.

Truthfully, the Wild Explosion rune in front of Elder Fan and others was far from Lu Xuan’s peak work. In order to avoid earning the attention of people, Lu Xuan had removed all of the special runes from the ancient enchantment technique, only leaving some more common runes, but this was already more than enough to shock these elders.

The elder who was the first to finish looking over the entire rune immediately exhaled a long breath and said: “This seems almost like a work of art. Such a flawless rune, it would be a waste too use it. It’s enough to make me hang it up and ponder over it every day.”

“Indeed it has greatly opened my eyes. Immersed in learning enchanting for countless years, I hadn’t even thought runes could be used in such a clever method!” Another elder couldn’t help but chime in.

Seeing the elders each praising it, the young lady who had also drawn a Wild Explosion rune also had come over. Hearing the praise, she couldn’t help but peek at Lu Xuan’s scroll. Once she saw it, her eyes were filled with shock because she discovered Lu Xuan actually had also drawn a Wild Explosion scroll!

It was the same Wild Explosion rune drawn. This guy’s speed was faster than her own!

The her that had been originally self-satisfied immediately became speechless. Since she had been small, she had followed her father in learning enchanting. She had assumed she was at the fore among the younger generation. Her enchantment skills were definitely one of the best, but this time, her speed at lost to someone of the same age! And looking at the expression of these elders, obviously its quality was very high. Most likely it would not be inferior to hers.

Other than Elder Fan, the other elders had already finished looking. None of them hesitated to give Lu Xuan an extremely high score, but Elder Fan was still meticulously examining every rune. He seemed to not be able to entirely believe that a disciple could draw such a flawless rune that even elders couldn’t draw. He tried to find a slightest error, but in the end, he had to give up because from the start to finish, there really wasn’t even a slight mistake.

Flawless!

Not only was it flawless, due to Lu Xuan’s new style of utilizing the runes, it could be described by the word outstanding!

Turning his eyes away from the scroll, Elder Fan lifted his head to look towards Lu Xuan, slowly saying: “The assessment’s full marks are ten points, but your scroll, I want to give a twelve point score!”

Listening to Elder Fan’s words, Lu Xuan exhaled. Twelve points. That could definitely pass. He didn’t care too much about the points, he just wanted to pass.

However, although he didn’t mind, the young lady behind him had a gaping mouth, seemingly wanted to give a shout of surprise. Her eyes were full of disbelief. Evidently, Elder Fan giving out twelve points was incredibly uncommon.

She was familiar with all of the elders in front of Lu Xuan. Elder Fan was naturally no exception. She deeply knew that Elder Fan’s requirements toward enchantment scrolls were high. She had never seen Elder Fan give a full point score to anyone. Even her father’s personally drawn scroll, Elder Fan would at most give nine points. As for her, although she was self-confident, she estimated that she could at most get an eight point score from Elder Fan, or perhaps she would only get seven.

And this guy in front of her drew the same rune, but not only was his speed faster than hers by a chip, it had even gotten an evaluation exceeding the full score. This was simply an impossible situation.

“Thank you for elder’s generosity. Right now, am I considered as having passed the assessment?” Lu Xuan inquired.

“En, the Wild Explosion rune belongs to middle level enchantment runes. You are now already a middle level enchanter in the Enchantment Hall.” Elder Fan’s face which had been so serious up to now had already become very relaxed and was even carrying a smile. Such a good seedling. As long as it got some raising, in the future, becoming a spirit runemaster would simply be a matter of course. How could he not be happy.

Glancing at Lu Xuan’s information, Elder Fan then asked: “You’re called Lu Xuan? Sword faction disciple, sixteen today. En, pretty good. In the future you’ll have lots of room for development. How long have you studied enchanting skills?”

Hearing this, Lu Xuan slightly hesitated, then thinking about it, he continued to honestly say: “Three months.”

As soon as he said this, no matter if it was Elder Fan or the elders behind him, or even the young lady behind Lu Xuan, all of them were stunned.

Three months? He didn’t speak incorrectly and say three months, but mean three years right?

In three months time, he could actually reach this degree, what level of talent was this!

“You’re saying, the time you’ve studied enchantment skills is only three months?” An elder couldn’t help but ask for confirmation.

Lu Xuan nodded. If he let these elders know that the three months he spoke of was only talking about the three months prior when he had started learning and wasn’t that he had been learning for three months, then most likely they would be even more astonished.

“Disciple blindly stumbled through learning enchantment skills, thus I have not systematically learned any enchantment skills. Having come to the Enchantment Hall now was in order to ask various elders to teach me.”

Hearing this, Elder Fan laughed: “That won’t be a problem, Lu Xuan, if what you said is true and have only learned for three months and reached this step, without a doubt, you have the highest talent I’ve ever seen. If you are willing to leave the sword faction and enter my Enchantment Hall, my Enchantment Hall is willing to hold nothing back in raising you!”

Although the Enchantment Hall permitted inner sect disciples to come and learn enchanting, they had disciples that they focused more on training. Only these were really the Enchantment Hall’s people.

Hearing what Elder Fan said, although the elders behind were a bit stunned, they didn’t refute it. The young lady behind Lu Xuan revealed a strange color in her eyes. As long as Lu Xuan nodded, then he would be the Enchantment Hall’s core disciple!

All of them assumed that Lu Xuan wouldn’t reject Elder Fan’s request. The Enchantment Hall had an aloof position within the Wind Sword Sect. A mere inner sect disciple, how could it compare to the core disciple that the Enchantment Hall focused on raising?
