As soon as Ye Luo grasped the token, a sudden beam of light fell upon him, instantly teleporting him away from the floating island!

In the blink of an eye, Ye Luo appeared within a grand hall!

At this moment, the hall had already gathered approximately eight hundred people!

These eight hundred were clearly those who had passed the first round of the examination, and now, they were waiting for the remaining people to arrive!

Whether when time runs out or the number is sufficient, they can proceed to the second round of the examination!

However, what Ye Luo didn’t expect was that just as he steadied himself, two more people appeared behind him!

Wasn’t it Kou Lian and Immortal Fairy Yushu? Who else could it be?

Unexpectedly, these two also passed the first round of the examination, and at the moment Ye Luo appeared, they unhesitatingly stood behind Ye Luo!

Ye Luo was practically on the verge of crying!

He really wanted to ask the two: What do you sisters actually want!

These past days, these two had been following behind Ye Luo, not speaking with him, and even when Ye Luo occasionally asked them, they wouldn’t answer, making Ye Luo clueless on how to handle the situation!

Even though there’s a saying that you get used to things when they happen often!

But Ye Luo really couldn’t get used to these two following him!

At the very least, they should explain themselves!

Of course, Ye Luo knew that even if he asked, it would be in vain, so helplessly, Ye Luo could only ignore the two!

As for Kou Lian and Immortal Fairy Yushu following Ye Luo, everyone was already accustomed to it, as there had been no definite conclusion, so all sorts of speculations continued, seeing it again, people weren’t too surprised either.

Of course, pointing and discussing was inevitable!

After some time, finally, one thousand tokens had been found, and the grand hall was filled with exactly one thousand people!

Similarly, Bai Luofeng had arrived in the grand hall!

"Your tokens are your proof. Now, activate your token. Within the token are some materials, but what type they are is random. Use those materials to craft talisman characters. We have designated elders for assessment. Based on your materials and the crafted talisman characters, it will be decided who will be accepted. This round, if you pass, you will become a disciple of the Divine Rune Sect, and you will be eligible to proceed to the third round of the examination!

This examination is time-limited to four hours! The examination begins!"

This token hides a secret?

Ye Luo was slightly taken aback, but judging from the appearance of others, it seemed many of them were aware!

Apparently, those inns and taverns weren’t useless after all!

At least, you could gather some useful information there!

Ye Luo understood that these four hours were mostly meant for people to familiarize themselves with the materials and analyze the methods!

After all, the materials are random, and since this is an examination, no matter if it’s talisman paper, pen, or ink, they must only use the materials within the token.

But what Ye Luo didn’t expect was that while the token contained materials, they weren’t ready-made items, but were indeed raw materials!

Which means, within the span of four hours, not only must they understand the materials, but they also have to utilize these materials efficiently, thus crafting them into talisman paper, pen, and ink before they can create talisman characters!

Given this calculation, the four-hour time span, to be honest, isn’t much at all, it could even be considered quite scarce!

Swiftly, people had already started to busy themselves!

Luckily, Ye Luo had read quite a number of books at Elder Jin’s place during this period, otherwise, he might not even recognize these materials entirely!

Ye Luo laid out his materials!

Seven in total, fortunately, Ye Luo was acquainted with all seven materials!

Although Divine Rune Sect had placed various materials in the token, there’s still some pattern!

In fact, all the materials within the token consist of seven types!

One rare material, three ordinary materials, and three half-waste materials!

There’s certainly a reason for such arrangement.

Rare material, presumably, everyone likes it, but without some insight, it’s unlikely that everyone would recognize it!

Ordinary materials, everyone may know them, but when needing to craft runes, talisman paper, and ink, how to allocate them becomes a question!

Ordinary materials being the most familiar, in usage, requires the utmost caution!

After all, these material arrangements are said to be random, but in reality, they are meticulously planned by the Divine Rune Sect!

No matter who you are, as long as you receive these materials, wanting to pair them, demands some contemplation, because during the crafting process, there’s a chance you might fail!

This isn’t largely related to the strength of your crafting technique, the main issue is, these materials are intentionally set this way!

Adding to this are three half-waste materials! 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The so-called half-waste materials, some have been used once, or the essence has been extracted, or utilized for other purposes, in short, they’ve been used, so there’s a certain risk in using them!

Of course, there are indeed some which haven’t been used, but they aren’t suitable for crafting talisman characters!

In light of this, how to pair them is a question that must be seriously considered!

Ye Luo looked at the materials in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed!

He couldn’t tell if his luck was good or bad!

The rare material he had received was the corpse of the Nine-jointed Monstrous Insect!

Nine-jointed Monstrous Insects are extremely rare, their power isn’t impressive, but they naturally possess an incredibly formidable spiritual power harmonious ability, effectively regulating various attribute spiritual powers, avoiding collisions!

Being termed a insect, it already indicates its small size!

Just the size of an index finger, Ye Luo still needs to contemplate utilization!

Should it be made into talisman paper? Or a talisman pen? Perhaps talisman ink?

How much for each?

With so little rare material, how could Ye Luo not ponder carefully?

Among the three half-waste materials Ye Luo had, one could practically be called waste, not half-waste!

Because that one material turned out to be something considered very common!

Immortal Stone Parent Rock!

What is Immortal Stone Parent Rock?

Sounds potent, but in reality, it’s merely ordinary stone surrounding the Immortal Stone!

Simply because it’s wrapped around the Immortal Stone for a long time, acquiring some aura!

With this thing, Ye Luo couldn’t think of how to utilize it!

Ye Luo knew that since the Divine Rune Sect included this in the materials, it must have a purpose, but Ye Luo truly couldn’t figure out how to use it!

An entire hour had already passed, and except for Ye Luo, others had started crafting according to their ideas, yet Ye Luo was still pondering!
