Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1886: Chapter 1888: Duel

Ye Luo had already made his choice, and with the disciple’s agreement, there was no way to change it. Soon, a group of people headed towards the Talisman Crafting Hall!

A three-phase duel was indeed the most advantageous for Ye Luo. These three phases, as their name suggests, are exactly three-stage duel methods!

The duelists need to craft three types of talisman characters. The first type is a randomly selected low-level talisman, competing in speed!

The second type of talisman is drawn by oneself, then materials are chosen and combined on their own. But the talisman drawn includes almost all the talismans of the Divine Rune Sect, making it very possible to draw a talisman one can’t craft. In a way, this phase tests luck!

As for the third stage, it’s like the entry assessment wherein one crafts talismans from random materials!

The three-phase duel is considered quite challenging and covers a broad range of assessments.

But precisely because of this, that disciple felt it might be advantageous for him!

But he didn’t know that although Ye Luo had just joined the Divine Rune Sect, he had already learned a lot from Elder Jin!

Maybe many talismans Ye Luo hadn’t crafted, but at least he knew how to craft them!

So, Ye Luo wasn’t as disadvantaged as one might imagine!

More and more people heard the news and came over. After all, Ye Luo was now considered a prominent figure in the Divine Rune Sect. Many wanted to know what kind of person could catch the eye of the Divine Talisman Master. Moreover, many saw Ye Luo’s behavior as arrogant and dismissive, so naturally, upon hearing about the duel, many wanted to witness it!

In their hearts, they wished for Ye Luo to lose, and lose badly!

Because only then could they find balance in their hearts!

See, Ye Luo isn’t that strong; it’s just that the Divine Talisman Master made a mistake!

...

With these thoughts, Ye Luo and the disciple had just arrived at the Talisman Crafting Hall, and already over a hundred people had gathered!

Even among them were a few elders!

Ye Luo’s special status wasn’t just something the disciples disapproved of; even many of the elders were displeased with him!

If it weren’t for this, how could those people dare to disparage Ye Luo so blatantly?

Of course, Ye Luo didn’t care about such things!

The Talisman Crafting Hall is usually just a place for disciples to craft talisman characters.

But during duels, it serves as a temporary arena!

At this moment, a disciple from the Talisman Crafting Hall stepped forward to act as the referee for this duel.

Of course, this referee was mostly there for formality. After all, in a talisman duel, anyone can quickly discern the winner or loser. Crafting talismans either succeeds or fails, and testing power is done with specialized formations!

Each contestant took their place in the arena, and the duel officially began!

The first round involved the referee randomly drawing a common talisman and providing materials—it’s just a speed competition!

This time, a very common talisman was drawn, the Earth Spike Talisman!

It’s one of the most common attack talismans, even mass-produced by the Divine Rune Sect!

No difficulty, it’s all about who is faster!

Materials were placed in front of the two contestants.

With the referee’s start signal!

The disciple began processing the materials without hesitation.

In a duel, the tools used are specifically prepared, so in the Talisman Crafting Hall, there are ready-made talisman papers, brushes, and inks.

Their task was merely to process the materials and draw the talisman characters!

The disciple was processing materials quickly, handling one after another continuously.

However, looking at Ye Luo, he was still categorizing materials, doing preparatory work!

At least at the start, Ye Luo was much slower!

The crowd murmur with boos, clearly showing their disdain for Ye Luo’s performance!

But suddenly, Ye Luo managed to control all the materials simultaneously in mid-air!

He opted to process all materials at once!

Whether the disciple dueling with Ye Luo or the surrounding spectators, they were all beyond surprised!

At that moment, they remembered that during the entrance selection, Ye Luo also handled all materials simultaneously in this way!

The disciple was startled and appeared flustered!

It wasn’t that he couldn’t process all the materials simultaneously, as they were all low-level ordinary materials.

However, processing all materials at once requires a high level of divine sense, as a slight mishap could lead to material processing mistakes!

Even in a duel, there’s no second set of materials for replacement!

The disciple, slightly flustered, quickly began to process the remaining materials simultaneously.

But in doing so, he lost his initial advantage and even lagged slightly behind Ye Luo!

Because, after all, Ye Luo had completed all preparatory work before processing materials!

Material processing and talisman drawing were seamless; Ye Luo didn’t stall at all!

But when Ye Luo finished, the disciple had only completed half of his drawing!

So, the result of the first duel was instantly clear!

The disciple was stunned for a moment but didn’t give up.

In his eyes, even if he lost this round, it didn’t really matter because, in the second round, he was confident of his victory!

In the second round, they would choose their talisman and seek their materials.

Ye Luo had been here only a short time, and perhaps he hadn’t even visited the Talisman Crafting Hall before. Where are those materials? How could Ye Luo know? It would likely take him a lot of time just to find materials! It might even be that Ye Luo doesn’t know how to craft the talisman he draws!

So in the second round, the disciple was convinced he would win!

But is that really the case?

Soon, the disciple temporarily acting as referee brought out two boxes, specifically used for duels. These boxes contained countless talisman characters. Using divine sense to seal a name draws out the name of a talisman that needs to be crafted!

Without hesitation, both immediately drew!

Flame Explosion Talisman!

Ancient Witch Dance Talisman!

Upon seeing the names drawn, the onlookers were utterly baffled!

Because the difference between these two talismans was enormous!

The Flame Explosion Talisman was so lacking in difficulty and technique. It’s just an enhanced Fireball Talisman, extremely simple!

But what about the Ancient Witch Dance Talisman?

It was one of the Divine Rune Sect’s top ten sect-defining talismans and the only support talisman!

Forget about disciples, even elders—how many of them could craft it?

No one expected Ye Luo to draw the Ancient Witch Dance Talisman!

There’s no comparison!

Ye Luo was destined to lose!
