Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Daring Not to Give Full Marks

Translator: 549690339

In the Talisman Drawing Class 3 of 3209, a certain high ponytail girl absentmindedly propped her cheek with her hand.

If Yue Linger remembered correctly, this afternoon, Jiang Cheng would take the “Aesthetics” exam.

Yue Linger clearly recalled that on the evening of September 5, fifteen days ago, Jiang Cheng, right after receiving the new student assessment topic, summoned her to his home by the Jade Lake in Ming’an using a communication talisman.

Visiting Jiang Cheng’s home was quite familiar to Yue Linger. After all, she had been to the Wuyue Residence countless times during her stay in Wuyue.

However, it was the first time Yue Linger was visiting Jiang Cheng’s home late at night.

In case Jiang Cheng didn’t let her return to the dormitory, she had to prepare a flawless excuse to explain to her roommates.

Otherwise, with her reputation as the Talisman Department Beauty, rumors would definitely surge like stormy clouds.

The first day they would say Yue Linger had a boyfriend, the second day they would say Yue Linger suffered a heartbreak from a scumbag boyfriend, and on the third day that she was four months pregnant but not showing yet.

“Yue, can you draw?” Inside the residence by the Jade Lake, Jiang Cheng asked her.

“I can, to a degree. After all, as a Talisman Master, drawing skills are a compulsory subject. But that’s about it, just a bit,” she replied.

“To what extent is a bit?”

Yue Linger thought for a moment, took out paper and a pen, and gave Jiang Cheng a quick sketch — “Lake Water · Liu Qing · Moon”.

“Yue, you draw very well! That’s amazing!” Jiang Cheng did not hesitate to praise her.

“Ah, thank you. But why are you asking about drawing? What do you want to do?”

“I’d like you to help me with a quick sketch, a portrait, just like the one you did of Liu Qing. It should have as few strokes as possible, but still capture the essence of the appearance,” he explained.

“I can do it, but who do you want me to draw?”

Jiang Cheng took out a photo and handed it to Yue Linger.

Yue Linger took the photo, and her eyes immediately widened.

Her hands trembled, her tongue tied, she stuttered, “Ji- Jiang Cheng, what do you want me to draw her for? Is she even drawable?”

Jiang Cheng gave a warm smile and said, “Of course you can draw her, Yue, please do it. Do a good job, I have a big use for it.”

Time returned to the midst of the Talisman class, with Yue Linger’s curious best friend, Cheng Bingxin, lying beside her.

“Linger? What’s the exam about this afternoon?”

Yue Linger unconsciously muttered, “Aesthetics, I guess.”

“Who are you thinking about?”

“I’m thinking about… Huh? What do you want?”

“Oh? You’ve been acting strange lately, little sister Linger.”

Yue Linger glanced at the classroom clock and whispered, “I can’t talk now, my stomach hurts, I’m going to the restroom.”

Yue Linger stood up, asked the teacher for leave, and then dashed out the door.

Half a minute later, Cheng Bingxin also stood up to ask for leave.

After she left, she headed straight for the lakeside and the new students’ exam site without a second thought.

As expected, she caught the “stomach-aching” Yue Linger red-handed!

“Wow, little sister Linger is so refined, having to go where it’s crowded even with a stomachache.”

“Huh? How did you get here? Aren’t you going to class?”

Cheng Bingxin shook her head and casually said, “Why do you care? Aren’t you also skipping class? I, Cheng, just like to watch handsome underclassmen. Even if my stomach hurts, I have to look. Lalala.”

Yue Linger could once chat idly with Cheng Bingxin for an entire afternoon, but now with Jiang Cheng nearby, she simply didn’t have the energy to spar with Cheng Bingxin.

Once a person has a weakness, they are open to attack at all fronts.

Yue Linger’s earlobes turned red from Cheng Bingxin’s teasing, but all she could do was pretend to be annoyed and say, “I’m not talking to you anymore! You always joke around!”

Cheng Bingxin originally wanted to tease Yue Linger a bit more, as a girl herself, she thoroughly enjoyed seeing her once cool and aloof best friend blush and become flustered.

However, as Yue Linger’s gaze shifted, a new student at the exam site caught Cheng Bingxin’s attention.

How should I put it, he had a kind of peculiar confidence, composed, steady, and elegant.

It was like this morning, that distinctive new student who answered that he’d “save two people.”

While the other nine examinees around him were frantically collecting water from the lake, struggling to carry the water to the black cloth, and then anxiously drawing on the black cloth.

That person simply held a reusable type talisman, with one hand in his pocket, and walked leisurely to the lakeside.

Before officially starting to paint, he even politely placed one hand on his chest and bowed to the canvas as a sign of respect.

Kinda handsome.

Cheng Bingxin thought to herself.

“Linger, Linger, look at that one, the one who bowed. Just from the back, he seems pretty handsome. I wonder what his face looks like…”

Cheng Bingxin wanted to point out the handsome junior to Yue Linger, but her best friend wasn’t distracted by her at all, and just kept gazing steadily at the guy.

Cheng Bingxin: …

Crazy about him?

There’s no need, right?

Most boys younger than herself are quite immature and nothing much…

What the heck!

Cheng Bingxin couldn’t believe her eyes!

While Cheng Bingxin was secretly slandering Yue Linger, Jiang Cheng activated his Furniture War God Talisman (Reusable Type · Ninth Grade).

With his back to the lake and facing the paint board, Jiang Cheng held the talisman in his right hand, positioning it at a 45-degree angle in front of his body.

The talisman was lifted to just near his chin.

Very particular about it.

An endless stream of Spiritual Power was infused by Jiang Cheng into the “Dragon Talisman”; the flickering lights of the talisman as it was activated, resembled a high-speed train cutting through the forest in the night!

Behind Jiang Cheng, countless lake waters were magically controlled to fly, and then, like parallel rain, they poured down fiercely onto the black cloth!

The sound of water droplets hitting went ‘pitter-patter’, resounding throughout the entire examination venue!

Jiang Cheng kept his eyes fixed on the canvas.

The silhouette of a person, on the black cloth, was quietly taking shape amidst the clash of lake waters.

This is why Jiang Cheng chose to place the “Dragon Talisman” within the “Attack” category of talismans, not among the “Control” type.

Because the control of objects by attack talismans is much stronger than that of control talismans!

If a control talisman could stop a bullet train, then an attack talisman could manage to shoot a bullet while the train navigates through eighteen bends of a mountain road, hitting the target right between the eyebrows!

The unparalleled precision in handling objects is the advantage of attack talismans!

And now, this advantage was fully displayed on Jiang Cheng’s painting through the water from the lake, down to the last detail!

Yue Linger stared at Jiang Cheng, at his canvas, her face a mixture of astonishment and conflict, her little hands nervously clutching beneath her.

It wasn’t that she lacked composure, but Jiang Cheng’s painting was… a bit terrifying!

Cheng Bingxin had no time to pay attention to Yue Linger anymore. She was now fixated on Jiang Cheng, her mind racing about what kind of talisman he was using. A water-controlling talisman? It didn’t seem like it! Could it be a water-manipulating talisman? That wasn’t right either.

The five grading teachers from the Media and Aesthetics Academy had all turned their attention to Jiang Cheng; compared to his work, the other nine candidates seemed like trash unworthy of a second glance.

Only Li Youyuan had the full sensation of “This is not good”!

Damn, damn, this guy has taken out another new talisman!

But what frightened Li Youyuan even more at the moment wasn’t that Jiang Cheng used another new talisman.

It was his painting!

The person he drew!

Something wasn’t quite right!

As the “torrential rain” ceased, Jiang Cheng’s painting was perfectly completed.

In front of the canvas, Jiang Cheng showed a pleased smile.

But Li Youyuan just wanted to toss Jiang Cheng into the lake to drown!

Damn, Master Ji Yueying you think you can just draw!

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Master Ji, Li Youyuan was bold and overstepped by calling your name so openly, it was utterly presumptuous. Please, considering both the Tongtian Sect and your Taixu Sect are Immortal Sects, don’t take it to heart, give me a break. It wasn’t intentional.

Indeed.

Jiang Cheng didn’t draw just anyone.

It was none other than the current Sect Leader of the Taixu Sect; a top-notch powerhouse in the Cultivation World who had reached the peak of the Great Perfection of the Mahayana Realm, someone who with a single thought, could decide the fate of the countless people in Liang Kingdom—Master Ji Yueying!
