Zhuang Xiaoqin always knew that her junior sister had a bit of a proud and arrogant nature.
All along, both she and her master were overly indulgent towards this junior sister.
Therefore, this time she wanted to use Lin Chen to suppress her junior sister's temperament a bit.
After all, everything had gone too smoothly for this junior sister all the time.
As a disciple of the Cloud Dragon Kingdom's First Array Master, and with her own high talent in formations, it made her somewhat arrogant, thinking others couldn't compare to her.
Thus, her growth gradually led her to disregard her peers, and her character became somewhat overbearing.
If this continued, it wouldn't be good for Qiu Yue.
After all, there is always someone better, just like Lin Chen in front of them, whose words, whether truly felt or learned from some ancient book, undoubtedly showed that Lin Chen surely had real skills.
However, her junior sister didn't take Lin Chen seriously, so next, Qiu Yue was bound to be embarrassed.
Qiu Yue was inspecting in the classroom, checking everyone's talisman results.
After an inspection, Qiu Yue found that most of the talismans made could barely be considered the most common low-grade talismans.
Also, many couldn't even achieve the basic low-grade talismans, barely making a talisman at all, whose power was almost negligible.
To this, Qiu Yue felt it was quite normal, as everyone was making talismans for the first time; only martial artists with certain talent could successfully create high-quality talismans, like Tan Yingping.
Therefore, to become a Formation Master, one needs to make mistakes over and over, summarizing experiences from repeated failures to eventually become a qualified Formation Master.
But to achieve this, not only does one need a strong talent in formations but also ample resources since making talismans and learning from failures consume many resources.
Without sufficient resources, one often gives up halfway, leading to the rarity of Formation Masters.
Only large families and major sects with significant powers can cultivate Formation Masters.
Qiu Yue inspected one by one in the classroom, finally stopping at the table in front of Lin Chen, facing the fat guy who wanted to pursue Yang Wenshan.
Seeing Qiu Yue coming, the fat guy started sweating profusely, wiping his forehead continuously, but to no avail. Finally, he shakily handed over the talisman he crafted for Qiu Yue to inspect.
Qiu Yue looked at the fat guy's nervous expression with puzzlement, wondering if he had some sort of phobia of beautiful women, and without paying much attention, she picked up the talisman he crafted.
At a glance, Qiu Yue was instantly filled with anger.
"What is this you've crafted? A child's doodling? Even a three-year-old would probably draw better than you. What on earth did you draw? Were you even paying attention in class?"
Qiu Yue looked at the fat guy, throwing the talisman he made onto the desk with utter anger.
The talisman he crafted was nearly unbearable to look at, resembling a turtle.
This wasn't a matter of technique but a complete lack of understanding of the Mysteries of the Strength Talisman.
It's known that the courses on formations for newcomers are free, but the materials used in these classes are very valuable, and giving them to someone like this is a complete waste.
"Qiu Yue, Senior Sister, I... I was paying attention in class."
The fat guy quickly argued when he heard Qiu Yue's angry words.
At this moment, he was very afraid because if he got expelled, he couldn't stay in the Spirit Formation Hall any longer, and pursuing Yang Wenshan would be impossible.
"You were paying attention? You were paying attention and managed to draw something like this? Even if you couldn't successfully make a talisman, at the very least, there should be a hint of runic mysteries, but what about yours? The whole thing is nothing but random scribbles with no trace of runic mysteries."
"Did you think this was an art class?"
"I would like to hear what you 'learned' in class for you to create such a thing."
Qiu Yue looked at the fat guy and roared angrily.
The fat guy was frightened beyond measure by Qiu Yue's anger.
He was tough with Lin Chen only because Lin Chen's cultivation was lower than his own; this guy was just a bully who feared the strong.
Given Qiu Yue's status and cultivation, she was someone he dared not provoke, so in the face of Qiu Yue's angry reprimand, he could only tuck his tail and keep silent.
"I... I was seriously listening to Senior Sister Zhuang's lecture."
The fat guy replied timidly.
However, he was only listening to Zhuang Xiaoqin's lecture.
As for what was taught, he couldn't understand at all...
Upon hearing his answer, Qiu Yue took a deep breath, her chest heaving, with an infinite fury inside that seemed ready to explode at any moment.
"Pfft..."
However, at this moment, Lin Chen, who sat behind the fat guy, couldn't help but laugh.
And upon hearing Lin Chen's laughter, Yang Wenshan, who sat behind Lin Chen, couldn't help but laugh too, though her laughter wasn't as exaggerated as Lin Chen's, immediately covering her small mouth afterward.
She was naturally a girl who feared trouble and timidly avoided provoking anything serious right now.
Hearing Lin Chen's laugh, Qiu Yue immediately turned her head, eyes full of anger.
Evidently, she transferred her anger from the fat guy to Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen, what are you laughing at?"
Qiu Yue questioned Lin Chen.
To others, the fat guy's talisman was undoubtedly laughable.
But to Qiu Yue, this was simply a desecration of her master's work, as this was her master's improved Strength Talisman; being reproduced like this was unforgivable, yet Lin Chen dared to laugh.
"I, I wasn't laughing at the fat guy; I just thought of something funny."
Lin Chen naturally wouldn't admit to laughing at the talisman the fat guy crafted; after all, that would be asking for trouble.
"Hmph, I don't see what qualifies you to laugh at others; I'd like to see what kind of talisman you've made."
Qiu Yue said, immediately picking up the talisman on Lin Chen's desk.
