His fist aimed at Gerald’s head, Jonas was sure that upon collision, Gerald’s skull would instantly split open! However, he was a fool if he thought that Gerald was going to grant that chance to him. With great ease, Gerald simply stepped to the side to dodge the attack! Even so, as Jonas’s fist flew right past Gerald’s face, Gerald could feel the immense power in the punch… As someone who had entered the First-soul-rank of the Sage Realm, Jonas was undoubtedly a strong one… Unfortunately for him, his opponent was Gerald. Realizing that his attack had actually missed, Jonas was left slightly shocked. To think that Gerald was actually this fast! Quickly recovering his wits, Jonas then swiftly turned around to launch a lethal kick at Gerald! However, once again, Gerald dodged the attack without any trouble. From that alone, the difference in the duo’s capabilities was made clear as day. In the world of martial arts, the speedier one always had the advantage, and this was cl
Following that, Augustus quickly led Jonas into one of their cars before leaving immediately. Seeing that the Lagers had left, Nori joyously cheered, “You did it, Gerald! You’re so strong that even Jonas wasn’t your opponent!” As Nori continued praising Gerald, Yoshua the other Zahns could only continue staring at the youth, still surprised by the outcome of that battle. Noticing that her family was speechless, Nori then took the chance to introduce Gerald to her father. “Father, this is the person I was talking about earlier! His name is Gerald Crawford!” Hearing that, Yoshua simply nodded before signaling them to return to the hall for now… Once seated, Gerald took the initiative to greet, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Master Zahn!” “The pleasure is mine. You know, Nori’s been telling me how powerful you were for a while now… After witnessing the events of today, I can safely say that I agree with her!” replied Yoshua, looking at Gerald with a satisfied expression. “Y
It wasn’t long after before an old man donning long robes entered the Zahn family manor. With a gold badge pinned near his chest, the individual was none other than Master Chace Hunt himself, a Second-rank Talisman Master in the Talisman Union… “Ah, you’re here, Chace!” said Yoshua as he quickly walked over to greet the old man when he saw him. “So, what exactly did you want to meet me for, Yoshua?” asked Chace without beating around the bush. With how casually they were talking to each other, it appeared that both of them were old friends. “Well, I’d like to introduce you to someone who has interest in learning how to craft secret technique talismans. I figured the details could be sorted out better face to face, which is why I invited you over!” replied Yoshua with a smile. Slightly startled when he heard that, Chace then joked, “Don’t tell me you’re trying to make your precious daughter my disciple!” Instantly laughing in response, Yoshua then replied, “I’d be overjoye
A few seconds later, Chace lowered his brush before tossing the talisman into the sky… And just like that, the talisman transformed into a golden phoenix that then soared away! “This talisman is called the Soaring Golden Phoenix!” explained Chace as he signaled for Gerald to begin. Getting the hint, Gerald then closed his eyes before carefully recalling each of Chace’s previous brush strokes. Seeing that Gerald wasn’t writing anything after a while, Chace then said, “You know, you can just give up if you can’t do it!” ‘Give up…?’ Gerald thought to himself, feeling slightly upset. When did he ever admit defeat? Giving up just wasn’t in his dictionary! After a few more seconds, Gerald suddenly opened his eyes wide before reaching out for the brush and beginning to draw a talisman similar to Chace’s. With how fluid his movements were, it almost felt like Gerald was guiding water down a river as he drew. It was so fluid, in fact, that Chace found his initial disdain quickly cha
Once they arrived at the Talisman Union, Chace brought Gerald into the main hall.A man wearing the same outfit as Chace came to greet them, and a young man was accompanying him.“Master Hunt, it looks like you have finally gotten yourself a disciple!”The man greeted Chace with a bright smile.“Master Griffin, where are you going?”His name was Llyod Griffin. Like Chace, he was also a Two-rank Talisman Master in the Talisman Union. So, it could be said that they were fellow brothers.However, Lloyd started taking disciples much earlier than Chace.“Haha, Master Griffin, where are you going?”Chace smiled subtly and replied to Llyod.“Master Griffin, my disciple has produced a middle-quality talisman. I’m bringing him to meet the Great Master to ask him to grant him the title of a One-rank Talisman Scribe!”Lloyd told Chace rather proudly.The hierarchical structure of the Talisman Union was divided into four levels, which were, from the bottom to the top, Talisman Scribe, T
Looking at the shiny badge, Gerald was overwhelmed.He had finally become a member of the Talisman Union as well as a disciple of Master Chace Hunt. Now, he could learn how to make secret technique talismans.“Gerald, you will be staying with me for these few days. I’ll teach you some basic knowledge about secret technique talismans and the ways of drawing the strokes. Although you are very talented, there are things that you still need to learn to master the skills. Talent is an inborn advantage, but you still need to learn a lot of things. Don’t be too proud, understand?”Master Hunt looked at Gerald and advised him sincerely.“Yes, Master Hunt. I understand. I will do as you say and work hard in learning how to make the secret technique talismans. I will not embarrass you!”Gerald looked at Chace with great determination and nodded.Master Hunt had such high expectations for him, of course he would not let him down.Having said that, Chace brought Gerald to his residence, and
On his third attempt, Gerald changed the way he did the strokes.Honestly speaking, this golden dragon pattern was unusual. Starting the strokes at different spots would bring about different outcomes. Only when he found the right spot to start the strokes would he be able to produce the perfect quality talisman.A few minutes later, Gerald had finished the drawing for the third time.This time, he had improved a lot.Although he wasn’t able to produce a perfect quality talisman, he had successfully produced a rare quality talisman.A shiny silver dragon surrounded by golden light gushed out from the talisman and circled Gerald.“Gerald, how’s your practice?”Just then, Chace came back from work., and he walked into the garden as he asked Gerald.The next second, Chace opened his eyes wide, and his face changed drastically. He put on a surprised look on his face.“A rare quality talisman!”Chace strode forward and shouted as he looked at the silver dragon.Just as he said th
Chace would have a headache every time he met with Llyod because this fellow always liked to annoy him, and he would occasionally mock him. Conversely, he would brag about himself. That was just so annoying.“The Talisman Great Master has gone into seclusion since a few days ago. That’s why my disciple hasn’t gotten his title yet. I heard he was coming out today, so I quickly came to see him. Master Hunt, are you bringing your disciple to get a title as well?”Lloyd explained to Chace before he asked suspiciously.“That’s right! My disciple is very talented. He improves very quickly, so I brought him here to get his title!”Chase replied with high confidence.Lloyd was a little taken aback when he heard him. He knew that Chace had just accepted a disciple a few days ago, but now, the disciple was already going to get a title. This was a little too fast in his opinion as his disciple had spent almost two months learning before he was qualified to get a title.“Master Hunt, getting
