Chapter 412: Trust and Arrogance

In a short period of time, under the leadership of Zhang Haogu, Shang Xia quickly became familiar with everything about Fu Tang's residence in Zawangpo.

Seeing this, the other two third-order talisman masters, Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, could only follow on the side and introduce to Shang Xia the preparations of the talisman in the station.

After visiting this place, Shang Xia finally asked the question that had been brewing in his heart for a long time: "Why do you want to set up a rune array? Although the formation can be completed quickly, the time for the large array to be maintained after the formation is completed is short, after all, the formation itself is too fragile and can be easily damaged. Even if the time is really urgent, why not use jade or gold talismans? At the very least, use the upper skin talisman and wooden talisman, and its durability is better than that of the talisman. ”

Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, the two third-order talisman masters, glanced at each other, but at the same time, they also looked at Zhang Haogu with some doubts.

Obviously, these two third-order talisman masters of the academy also had the same doubts.

Zhang Haogu smiled bitterly, but just said: "Time is running out, there is no time for me to wait for the deployment of a large and sturdy array as the original Tongyou Peak Guardian Array." ”

Shang Xia was shocked in his heart, and blurted out: "Could it be that Cangling's side will soon counterattack and start a big war again?"

Shang Xia's thoughts were not unfounded.

To put it bluntly, the Changbai Holy Land side had a limited degree of involvement, and luck seemed to be on the side of Tongyou Academy, so in the end, Tongyou Academy was lucky to win, but the other party may not be convinced.

And after this battle, most of the fourth-order martial artists on the side of Tongyou Academy have lost their combat power, and the essence of the external strength and middle cadres has also been exposed.

On the contrary, the strong foundation of the Changbai Holy Land was enough for them to send a sufficient number of fourth-order martial artists to enter the Two Realms Battle Domain again.

Once this happens, if the Tongyou side wants not to completely lose the ownership of the two realms of the battle domain, it can only shrink all its forces in one place and defend it to the death.

Then it is imperative to arrange a large array with sufficient grades and wide coverage in a short period of time.

"That's true!"

Zhang Haogu did not deny Shang Xia's worries, but he followed up and said, "However, this is not the main reason. ”

As for the real reason, maybe it was because of the two talisman masters Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui around him, Zhang Haogu didn't explain much, but Shang Xia was thoughtful, as if he had thought of something.

While the four of them were talking, they saw a young warrior hurrying towards this side.

"Mr. Zhang, two gentlemen......"

When the young warrior approached, he saluted those present.

Before Zhang Haogu served as the head of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, he had served as a teacher in the Teaching Department for a long time, and Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, two third-order talisman masters, also had some obligations to teach in the Tongyou Academy, so they would all be called "sir" by the students of the academy.

It's just that this young martial artist saw Shang Xia after him, and the whole person was stunned for a moment.

Shang Xia glanced at the visitor, but it looked quite familiar, and he could probably remember that the person who came should be the Tongyou Academy that he entered at the same time as him, and he was a classmate of the Eight Classics.

It's just that he spent so little time in the academy that he couldn't remember where the person came from, who the instructor was, and what his name was.

Shang Xia only felt a little embarrassed, smiled at the visitor, and looked away.

On the contrary, the dormitory member was not at peace in his heart.

In less than two years, this former head of the outer house has become a legend for the entire academy.

And this student seems to be making progress all the way in the academy.

Now he is a layman.

However, when the two of them stood in front of the academy commander at the same time, he could only be an errand runner who passed on news, while Shang Xia was already talking and laughing with the fourth-order chief and third-order talisman master.

Zhang Haogu saw that the student who was spreading the news in front of him was actually distracted, and couldn't help but be a little unhappy: "What's the matter with you?"

The young martial artist was shocked, and hurriedly collected his thoughts, and reopened his mouth to report: "Mr. Zhang, two gentlemen, the array hall is urging again, I hope that even if we can't deliver all the array talismans, we must at least deliver some of them first." ”

Zhang Haogu, Gong and Fan didn't look good when they heard this.

"Thousands of array talismans, do they think they can be made so easily?"

Fan Yuanhui, who looked a little irritable, couldn't help but say angrily.

Zhang Haogu waved his hand, signaling that Fan Yuanhui didn't need to say much, only to see him look at the person who came, and said in a gentle tone: "What is the part of the array hall said?"

The young martial artist hurriedly said: "According to the news from the Chu Sect of the Formation Hall, they are almost ready for the core of the array used to arrange the Great Array, as long as our Fu Hall can provide twenty-four third-order array talismans, one hundred and eight second-order formation talismans, and four or five hundred first-order array talismans, then they will be able to complete the preliminary construction of the Guardian Great Array." At that time, we only need to slowly complete the remaining array runes, and then gradually fill them in. ”

Fan Yuanhui immediately snorted coldly and said, "It turns out that the array sent this little girl this time, what does she mean by this, is she deliberately embarrassing us?"

Gong Hang was also a little dissatisfied: "The guardian formation of the Wangpo was originally to be arranged according to the previous Tongyou Peak, and the people in the formation hall were naturally prepared. But now that the academy has temporarily changed the guardian formation to a rune formation, our rune hall has not prepared at all in advance. Their array disk core doesn't need to be remade and can still be used, but they suddenly gave us more than a thousand array talisman tasks, and we are just rushing ducks to the shelves, and now they are urging us. ”

Zhang Haogu thought for a while, and said to the two third-order talisman masters: "Anyway, it is a fact that now it is a fact that the Wangpo continues to guard the Great Array. Since we can build the framework of the guardian formation first, let's make some of the formation talismans first. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Haogu looked at Shang Xia and said with a smile: "Besides, now that we have one more third-order talisman master in our array, I think the next progress will also improve a lot." ”

Gong Hang just smiled politely when he heard this, but Fan Yuanhui shook his head a little distrustfully.

Zhang Haogu didn't notice the expressions on the faces of the two third-order talisman masters, he just looked at the young martial artist and said, "You go to the formation hall again and tell Chu Jiachu to teach, just say that the rune hall agrees with her plan here, and first make a part of the formation talismans." ”

The young warrior confessed, quickly turned around and hurriedly left.

Zhang Haogu looked at the three of them and said with a wry smile: "The next thing to look at is mainly the three." ”

Gong Hang has the oldest qualifications in the talisman hall, and the level of talisman making is also the highest, so he said: "Without further ado, the old man and Fan Fushi will continue the production of the third-order array talisman. It's just that the small merchant rune is new to the school, so do you need to adjust one or two first?"

Shang Xia said with a smile: "There is no need to adjust, since you have to hurry up, then let's start the formation talisman production right now." ”

Gong Hang nodded and said, "Since this is the case, I will ask the small merchant talisman master to start the production of the second-order array talisman first." ”

Shang Xia was slightly stunned, and his smile was already a little playful, but he didn't answer.

Zhang Haogu, who was next to him, said "Huh" and said, "He is also a third-order talisman master, why don't you let him also join in the production of third-order array talismans?"

Although the Chu Sect of the Array Hall said that the first batch of third-order array talismans only needed twenty-four, I remember that the two of them had only completed less than ten now, right?"

Gong Hang smiled and said nothing, but his gaze at Shang Xia had a sense of "I'm for your good, don't be ignorant".

However, Fan Yuanhui next to him had no taboos at all, and sneered directly: "If you want to say that a small merchant talisman has made a third-order martial talisman, we naturally believe it, and becoming a third-order talisman at such an age is naturally a genius, and we are not as good as a font." However, the third-order rune master also depends on the efficiency, although the array hall has now reduced the number of required runes, but the production of third-order rune paper is not easy, in case there is too much damage in the process of production, resulting in a waste of resources, and the delay is a big thing to arrange the slope rune array. ”

Speaking of which, Shang Xia still doesn't understand anything.

Although these two third-order talisman masters of the array hall were very polite to him on the surface, they still didn't trust his third-order talisman making technique after all.

Perhaps in their opinion, as a descendant of the Shang family, he, a third-order talisman master, was afraid that he was not reluctantly fed by using the family's massive resources, maybe it was because of luck, and the success rate of talisman making might be frighteningly low.

And this time I joined the Fu Hall, I'm afraid it still has the purpose of using the resources of the academy to practice.

Instead of taking the third-order rune paper that was not easy to make to Shang Xia, an "unreliable" third-order rune master, it was better to send him to make a second-order formation rune.

In this way, not only can you save the small number of third-order talismans, but also greatly increase the production speed of second-order array talismans.

After all, it can't be said that Shang Xia still had the experience of making third-order martial talismans, even if it was just luck, then the efficiency of making second-order martial talismans that were one level lower would not be too bad.

Zhang Haogu frowned slightly when he heard this, although he was slightly dissatisfied with the arrangement of the two third-order talisman masters, but these two people were also out of public intentions, and he was not very harsh.

The reason for this is because Zhang Haogu himself doesn't know much about the details of the third-order talisman master of Shang Xia.

Shang Xia smiled at this time and said, "How many third-order rune papers have been prepared by Fu Tang so far?"

Gong Hang could hear the unconvincing meaning in Shang Xia's tone, and he didn't want to pay more attention to it, but it can be seen that Zhang Haogu also looked at it, so he had to answer: "At present, there are only twenty-nine pieces of third-order rune paper, and there will be third-order rune paper production in the next period of time, but before the current batch of materials is exhausted, according to the level of the array hall rune craftsman, at most, it will only make six or seven more third-order rune papers." ”

Zhang Haogu was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously said, "Is this batch of materials about to run out again?"

Gong Hang was about to open his mouth to explain, and complained a few words about the insufficient materials, which was also one of the reasons for slowing down the progress of the Fu Hall, but was interrupted by Shang Xia next to him.

"How many third-order array talismans have been made so far?" Shang Xia asked.

Gong Hang was a little dissatisfied with Shang Xia's tone of direct inquiry, but he was not easy to attack in front of Zhang Haogu, so he had to say coldly: "Gong and Fan Fushi have already made eight sheets. ”

Shang Xia sighed "hmm" and pondered: "The first batch of third-order array talismans only needs twenty-four pieces, and in addition to the eight that have already been made, sixteen third-order array talismans need to be made. Now there are still twenty-nine third-order rune papers, plus the six or seven new ones that will be made in the future, that is, thirty-five or six third-order rune papers......"

Speaking of this, Shang Xia looked at Zhang Haogu and said with a smile: "The production of array talismans is relatively simple compared to martial talismans of the same level, maybe before this batch of materials is exhausted, we will be able to prepare twenty-four third-order array talismans." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Haogu's eyes lit up.

"Hmph, arrogant!" Fan Yuanhui dismissed.
