The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Xiao Han asked, "What are you betting on?"

Ma Changming said, "It's very simple. In today's Sixth-Rank Talisman Master exam, whoever performs better between the two of us will be the winner. The loser must kneel down and kowtow to the other one to admit defeat."

Although Xiao Han thought it was a good idea to make this annoying guy kneel down and kowtow, she still felt that it was too unreasonable to ask this villain, who she had no interaction with and didn't care about, to kowtow.

She smiled and said, "I think it would be more practical to bet on some immortal stones. How about we just bet on immortal stones?"

Ma Changming took a look at Xiao Han's robes. They were still very ordinary robes. They were neither the kind of robes made of luxurious and beautiful materials, nor the kind of high-level robes with extremely strong defensive power.

He immediately said contemptuously: "How many immortal stones can you take out to gamble?"

Xiao Han asked in return: "How many immortal stones can you take out?"

Ma Changming deliberately said: "Twenty million immortal stones, what do you think? Do you dare to bet?"

Xiao Han's eyes lit up, but he deliberately hesitated and said, "So many, are you just talking nonsense?"

Ma Changming immediately said proudly: "Twenty million immortal stones is nothing. If you dare to bet so much, I will bet the same amount of immortal stones with you. If not, just wait and kneel down and kowtow to me three times."

Xiao Han added, "Without a witness, there's no way to gamble."

Just at this time, Master Ziqiao and Master Pan came over.

Ma Changming immediately stepped forward and told the two masters about the bet, hoping that they would be witnesses.

Of course Master Pan nodded in agreement.

Master Ziqiao frowned slightly and said gently, "This is a formal exam. How can we bet on it?"

Xiao Han also deliberately said: "Friend Ma, Master Pan seems to have a close relationship with you, so it's not appropriate for him to be a witness."

The implication is that Master Pan will be biased towards Ma Changming when judging.

Master Pan's face suddenly darkened. "Are you questioning my character? This is within the Fu Dao League."

Xiao Han had a smile on his face, but he said nothing. It was obvious that he didn't believe that he would judge fairly.

Zi Qiao was about to speak when Ma Changming said, "However, we could make the test a little more unique. For example, we could not specify the type of talismans and directly use the talismans we drew ourselves to attack each other. Whoever loses the fight will also lose the bet."

Most of the sixth-grade talismans he was good at drawing were attack talismans.

Zi Qiao finally said with a slightly gloomy face, "This is a formal Fu Dao exam. After the exam, you can gamble however you want."

Although her voice was still gentle, her tone was unquestionable.

As soon as Xiao Han saw Ma Changming's expression, he knew that he was not giving up. He smiled secretly in his heart and immediately sent a message to Zi Qiao: "Master Zi Qiao, there will be no problem in taking the exam normally. You just need to be a witness. I will definitely beat him."

Twenty million immortal stones, don’t miss it.

Master Pan will favor Ma Changming, but Zi Qiao and Xiao Han are familiar with each other, so she will definitely favor Xiao Han emotionally.

Therefore, there is actually not much difference in that there may be bias in the judgment.

But Ziqiao will definitely be more fair, but it’s hard to say about Master Pan.

But Xiao Han believes that he can make up for this with his own strength.

Therefore, Xiao Han said to the three people, "Let's follow the normal examination process. Our bet is just a side note. We can ask Master Ziqiao and Master Pan to be witnesses."

After saying that, he took out a storage bag used for transactions, which contained receipts for 20 million fairy stones, which were the round fairy crystals with various large denominations marked on them.

She placed the storage bag on the table between Zi Qiao and Master Pan, and said to Ma Changming, "My 20 million immortal spirit stones have already been put there. Take out yours and put it there."

Ma Changming always thought that it was impossible for Xiao Han, a poor casual cultivator, to come up with 20 million fairy stones in one go. He mentioned this price before just to deliberately humiliate Xiao Han, and what he wanted in the end was that Xiao Han would kneel down and kowtow to apologize.

But the poor casual cultivator he identified took out 20 million fairy stones without hesitation.

On the contrary, he himself did not have enough 20 million fairy stones in his storage ring.

Ma Changming probed his spiritual sense into the storage bag on the desk in disbelief and found that there were actually 20 million fairy stones inside.

This poor guy actually accumulated so many immortal stones?

When he saw Xiao Han looking at him with a smile, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind. Since Xiao Han had accumulated so many immortal stones, did it mean that she was usually reluctant to spend too many immortal stones on practicing talismans?

Also, maybe she discovered that I didn't have 20 million fairy stones, so she deliberately forced me in the opposite direction?

Ma Changming was in a dilemma and had to take out all the fairy stones in his storage ring, but he was still short of about one million.

"I just attended a trade fair a while ago and bought a few treasures. Now I don't have enough fairy stones to make up for the 20 million. I'll buy something else to make up the difference."

After saying that, he took out another pill bottle and opened it for Xiao Han to see.

"This is a small enlightenment pill that has a certain effect on realm breakthroughs. If you don't have enough, use it to make up for it."

Xiao Han had also heard of the name of Xiao Wudan. It might have some effect on cultivators in the human fairyland, but it was just a useless sugar pill to high-level cultivators and was not worth a million fairy stones at all.

However, Xiao Han didn't want to care about it too much. She was very confident that she could win anyway. As long as she won the storage bag, it didn't matter if she had a little less.

Besides, Xiao Wudan can also be fed to Croton.

She then hummed lightly.

After the gambling money was handed over to the witness, the two of them could start the exam with peace of mind.

The examination for a sixth-grade talisman master not only involves drawing talismans, but also explaining the Taoist meaning between runes and the laws of heaven and earth.

To draw talismans, one has to draw three sixth-grade talismans on the spot. The reason for only drawing three is that it takes a lot of mental energy, and drawing too many will take up too much exam time.

If you can draw three talismans drawn at random within the specified time and pass the interpretation of the runes, you can obtain the sixth-grade talisman master badge.

Zi Qiao took out a box containing the names of the sixth-grade runes and asked Xiao Han and Ma Changming to come forward and draw their respective test questions.

Ma Changming was the first to step forward and draw.

There are micro restrictions in the box to block the detection of spiritual consciousness, and one can only draw based on one's luck.

Ma Changming took out three transparent crystal stones and looked at them, his face suddenly turned bad.

The names of the runes displayed inside the crystal stone are Thunder Explosion Rune, Tracking Rune, and Shadow Rune.

Except for the Thunder Explosion Talisman which is an offensive talisman, the other two are auxiliary talismans.

At this time, Xiao Han also figured out the test questions, but the three talismans were all attack runes.

Ma Changming's eyes rolled, and he immediately said, "I think, for the sake of fairness, we should both draw the same rune to determine who is better. So, I'll give up on this part of the test and directly draw the three talismans in Fellow Daoist Xiao's hand."
