Chapter 619: Chapter 619
Seeing Xu Hao actually getting ready to draw a talisman himself, Tu Yilong immediately laughed and said, "Tell me, Xu Hao, do you really think you can draw a talisman? Do you even know how? Can a talisman drawn by you even be used? Don't take it personally, but to draw a talisman that can counter mine, you need to produce at least a second level talisman. Can you do that?"
Tu Yilong had actually self-destructed!
By now everyone understood that Chen Suyi hadn't been faking; it was truly Tu Yilong who had been causing trouble.
And because of this, Tu Yilong began to truly compete with Xu Hao in terms of strength.
A contest of strength between two Grandmaster level experts was something that everybody was extremely curious about.
What kind of sparks would fly when these two genius rivals clashed?
Seeing that many people were still confused, not understanding what he meant by "second level," Tu Yilong even kindly explained, "Talismans are categorized into ranks, from first to ninth rank, and each rank is divided into low grade, medium grade, high grade, and top grade quality. However, those below Martial Honor can only draw talismans up to the third rank. The talisman I used just now was a second level talisman, which is already quite rare. I have only a few in my possession. Third grade talismans are basically treasured by each Sect and not easily taken out. As for fourth-order talismans, they are so rare that many Sects don't have any at all!"
Seeing that people were beginning to understand, he continued, "A single offensive third grade superior talisman is equivalent to a full force strike from a Great Perfection of Grandmaster level expert, while an offensive fourth-order talisman is like a full force strike from a Martial Sovereign level peerless expert! Below Martial Honor, one would undoubtedly perish upon encountering it." Note from the editor: Always check * for corrections.
Someone immediately asked, "Third Young Master, does the Tu family possess such talismans?"
"That's a secret, but we do have third grade superior offensive talismans," Tu Yilong said with a light smile.
He left his statement open-ended, letting people speculate. This made him even more enigmatic than if he had explained everything.
Maybe they had them, maybe they didn't.
But the mere mention of a third grade superior talisman was enough to send chills down everyone's spines.
That was the full force strike of a Great Perfection of Grandmaster level expert!
A single Grandmaster level expert could dominate a city, virtually unstoppable. If a Great Perfection of Grandmaster level expert were to come to Huadu, then there would truly be no one who could stand against them!
Xu Hao was somewhat surprised to hear Tu Yilong's explanation but soon he let it go.
The Tu family, a Half Hidden Family that had existed for hundreds of years—hundreds of years ago, there may have been Martial Honors among them. So it wouldn't be surprising if they actually possessed fourth-order offensive talismans.
This was one of the main reasons why those great clans and Sects had endured for so long—they all had profound heritages!
So long as no one went looking for trouble, nobody would provoke them. In an era where a Martial Sovereign level peerless expert had never appeared, a single fourth-order offensive talisman could deter the vast majority of people.
However, Xu Hao was not intimidated in the slightest.
Martial Honor was not out of reach!
Wu Mengchong quickly interjected with flattery, "A single first order talisman can sell for a price varying from ten thousand to one hundred thousand, and a second level talisman starts at five hundred thousand! The talisman that Third Young Master presented is a second tier top grade, valued over two million!"
Tu Yilong actually used a top grade second level talisman against an ordinary person—everyone inwardly sighed at the extravagance of Tu Yilong's actions, but it also indirectly proved that the Tu family truly had deep roots and formidable strength!
For a mere pair of twin beauties, Tu Yilong had been so generous in his actions!
Everyone let out a sigh of admiration, while in the eyes of those two twin sisters on the stage, there was nothing but gratitude.
Tu Yilong had actually brought out such a precious item for their sake; they could only repay him by defeating Chen Suyi.
Xu Hao smiled lightly and said, "You're not me, so how can you know whether or not I can draw a second level talisman?"
Tu Yilong snorted, "A person's energy is limited. If you, at such a young age, have cultivated to the Grandmaster level, it must mean you have practiced diligently. But precisely for this reason, it's impossible for you to devote more energy to other matters. Talisman drawing not only requires extremely high talent but also relentless practice,
therefore, I'm convinced you can't draw a second level talisman, much less use your own to counter mine! My talisman is crafted by the leading third grade talisman Grandmaster of our Tu family. Even among second level talismans, it can be considered top grade. If you want to break my talisman, you must draw either a second tier top grade talisman or a third grade talisman!"
"How will we know if we don't try?"
Xu Hao said calmly and then, holding a brush dipped in cinnabar, began to draw skillfully on the talisman paper.
As Xu Hao's brush moved across the paper, in less than a minute, a talisman was completed. Looking at Xu Hao, he seemed as if he hadn't expended any effort at all.
Tu Yilong's disdain grew even stronger. Even the third grade talisman Grandmaster of his Tu family, who was at the middle stage of Grandmaster level, would rest with closed eyes for a quarter of an hour after drawing a top grade second level talisman.
Because drawing talismans required a significant consumption of Qi Force.
