Chapter 412

In a short period of time, under Zhang Haogu's leadership, Shang Xia quickly got acquainted with everything about Futang's residence in Zuwangpo.

Seeing this, the other two third-tier talisman masters, Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, could only follow along and introduce to Shang Xia the preparations for the talisman hall in the residence.

After visiting here, Shang Xia finally asked the question that had been brewing in his heart for a long time: "Why do we need to build a formation? Although it can be done quickly with formation symbols, the maintenance time of the large formation is short after the formation is completed. After all, formation symbols It is too fragile and easily damaged. Even if time is really urgent, why not use jade or gold talismans? At the very least, use leather talismans and wooden talismans, and their durability is better than that of crafting talismans."

The two third-tier talisman masters, Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, glanced at each other, but at the same time they cast the same puzzled eyes on Zhang Haogu.

Obviously, the third-tier talisman masters of these two colleges also have the same doubts.

Zhang Haogu smiled wryly, and just said: "Time is waiting for me, there is no time for me to wait to set up a large and strong formation like Tongyou Peak's protective formation back then."

Shocked, Shang Xia blurted out, "Could it be that Cang Ling's side will counterattack immediately and start another big war?"

Shang Xia's thinking is not groundless.

The so-called Changbai Holy Land's involvement in this battle was limited, and luck seemed to be on the Tongyou Academy's side. In the end, Tongyou Academy won by luck, but the opponent may not be convinced.

And after this battle, most of the Tier 4 fighters on Tongyou Academy's side have lost their combat power, and their essence of being strong outside but capable in the middle has been fully exposed.

On the contrary, the strong background of Changbai Holy Land is enough for them to send a sufficient number of Tier 4 warriors to enter the Battlefield of Two Realms again.

Once this is the case, if the Tongyou side does not want to completely lose the ownership of the two realms, they can only hide all their forces in one place and defend them to the death.

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

"There are indeed considerations in this regard!"

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, perhaps it was because of the two talisman masters, Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, Zhang Haogu didn't explain much, but Shang Xia was thoughtful, as if thinking of something.

When the four of them were talking, they saw a young martial artist hurrying towards them.

"Mr. Zhang, two gentlemen..."

When the young warrior came to the front, he greeted the people present.

Before Zhang Haogu became the chief manager of the Cangjing Pavilion, he had served as a teacher in the Education Department for a long time, and Gong Hang and Fan Yuanhui, two third-level talisman masters, also had part of the teaching obligation in Tongyou College, so they would all be recruited by the college. The students are called "Mr."

It's just that the young warrior saw Shang Xia right after him, and he froze there immediately.

Shang Xia glanced at the visitor, but he looked quite familiar. He could probably remember that the visitor should be a classmate of Tongyou Academy who entered at the same time as himself, and he was a serious classmate.

It's just that he stayed in the academy for so little time that he couldn't remember which room the visitor came from, who the teacher was, and what his name was.

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

On the contrary, the student in the dormitory was quite uneasy.

In less than two years, the former head of the foreign house has become a legend in the entire academy.

And this student seems to be progressing all the way in the academy,

Now he is a student in the dormitory.

However, when the two of them stood in front of the teachers of the college at the same time, he could only be an errand runner passing on news, while Shang Xia was already talking and laughing happily with the fourth-level supervisor and third-level talisman master.

Zhang Haogu saw that the student passing the news was distracted, he couldn't help but a little displeased and said: "What's the matter with you?"

The young martial artist was startled, quickly collected his mind, and re-opened his report: "Mr. Zhang, the two gentlemen, the formation hall is urging again. I hope that even if we can't deliver all the formation symbols, at least some of them will be delivered first." Deliver first."

Zhang Haogu, Gong and Fan didn't look very good when they heard the words.

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

Fan Yuanhui, who seemed to be a little irritable, couldn't help but said angrily.

Zhang Haogu waved his hand, signaling to Fan Yuanhui not to say too much, but he looked at the person coming, and said in a gentle tone: "How much is the part of what Zhentang said?"

The young warrior hurriedly said: "According to the news from Master Chu of the formation hall, they are almost ready to prepare the core of the formation plate used for arranging the large formation. One hundred orders and eight pieces, and four to five hundred first-order formation symbols, then they can complete the preliminary construction of the guardian formation. At that time, we only need to slowly complete the remaining formation symbols, and then gradually fill them up."

Fan Yuanhui immediately snorted coldly and said: "It turns out that this little girl was sent by Zhentang this time. What does she mean by saying this? Is she deliberately embarrassing us?"

Gong Hang was also a little dissatisfied and said, "Zitwangpo's guardian formation was originally arranged in the same way as Tongyou Peak before, and the people in the formation were naturally prepared for it. But now the academy temporarily changed the guardian formation to a talisman formation. Our talisman was completely unprepared in advance. Their array disk cores can still be used without remaking, but they are suddenly assigned to us with more than 1,000 array talismans. We are rushing to put them on the shelves. wake us up."

Zhang Haogu thought for a while, and said seriously to the two third-tier talisman masters: "In any case, it is a fact that Sitting on the slope continues to guard the formation. Since we can first set up the framework of the protection formation, then we will Let’s make a part of the talismans first.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Haogu looked at Shang Xia and said with a smile: "Besides, we now have an extra third-tier talisman master in the formation, and I think the next progress will also improve a lot."

When Gong Hang heard the words, he just smiled out of politeness, but Fan Yuanhui shook his head in disbelief.

Zhang Haogu didn't notice the expressions on the faces of the two third-tier talisman masters, he just looked at the young warriors and said, "You go to the formation hall again, tell Chu Jia Chu to learn, and say that the talisman hall agrees with her plan, Let’s make a part of the talismans first.”

The young warrior apologized, turned around and left in a hurry.

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

Gong Hang has the oldest qualifications in the talisman hall, and the standard of making talismans is also the highest. He said: "It's not too late, the old man and Fan Fushi will continue to make the third-order formation talisman. It's just that the small merchant talisman has just arrived, and it needs to be adjusted first. One or two?"

Shang Xia said with a smile: "There is no need to adjust. Since we must hurry up, we should start making array symbols now."

Gong Hang nodded, and said, "In this case, let the little merchant talisman master start making the second-order formation talisman first."

Shang Xia was slightly taken aback, there was already some amusement in his smile, but he didn't answer.

On the other hand, Zhang Haogu, who was next to him, let out a "huh" and said, "He is also a Tier 3 talisman master, why not let him join in the production of Tier 3 array talismans?

Although Teacher Chu of the formation said that the first batch of Tier 3 formation talismans only needs 24 pieces, but I remember that the two of you have only completed less than 10 pieces now, right? "

Gong Hang smiled without saying a word, but looked at Shang Xia with a look of "I'm doing it for your own good, don't be ignorant of good and evil".

On the other hand, Fan Yuanhui next to him had no taboos, and sneered directly: "If you say that a small merchant talisman master has made a third-tier martial talisman, we will certainly believe it. It is a genius to become a third-tier talisman master at this age, and so are we." The font library is not as good. But the third-tier talisman maker also depends on efficiency. Although the number of array talismans required by the array hall has now been reduced, the production of third-tier talisman paper is not easy. If there is too much damage during the production process , causing a waste of resources is a small matter, but delaying the arrangement of the Siwangpo Talisman Array is a major matter."

When it comes to this matter, there is still something Shang Xia can't understand.

Although these two third-tier talisman masters in the formation hall were very polite to him on the surface, they still didn't trust his third-tier talisman making skills after all.

Perhaps in their view, as a direct descendant of the Shang family, his third-tier talisman master might not have been forced to use the family's massive resources. Maybe it was luck, and the success rate of making talismans might be low. It's scary.

And joining Futang this time, I am afraid that he still has the purpose of using the resources of the academy to practice his hands.

Instead of giving Shang Xia, an "unreliable" third-tier talisman master, the difficult-to-make third-tier talisman paper, it is better to send him to make a second-tier talisman.

In this way, not only the small number of Tier 3 Talisman masters can be saved, but also the speed of making Tier 2 Talismans can be greatly improved.

After all, Shang Xia still had the experience of making Tier 3 Martial Talismans, even if it was only due to luck, then his efficiency in making Tier 2 Martial Talismans, which was one level lower, would not be too bad.

Zhang Haogu frowned slightly when he heard the words, although he was slightly dissatisfied with the arrangement of the two third-tier talisman masters, but after all, these two were out of public interest, so he was not too harsh on him.

The reason was that Zhang Haogu himself didn't know much about the details of Shang Xia's third-rank talisman master.

Shang Xia smiled at this time, and said, "How many third-order talisman papers have been prepared by the talisman hall?"

Gong Hang could hear the unconvinced meaning in Shang Xia's tone, and he didn't want to pay attention to it. It can be seen that Zhang Haogu also looked over, and could only reply: "At present, there are only twenty-nine third-order talisman papers. There will be third-order talisman papers produced one after another in the future, but before the current batch of supplies is exhausted, based on the level of the talisman craftsman, at most six or seven more third-order talisman papers will be made."

Zhang Haogu was startled when he heard the words, and subconsciously said: "Are these supplies going to be used up soon?"

Gong Hang was about to explain, and complained a few words about the lack of supplies, which was also one of the reasons for slowing down the progress of Futang, but was interrupted by Shang Xia next to him.

"How many Tier 3 talismans have been made so far?" Shang Xia asked.

Gong Hang was a little dissatisfied with the tone of Shang Xia's direct question, but he couldn't get angry in front of Zhang Haogu, so he could only say coldly: "Gong and Fan Fushi have already made eight."

Shang Xia murmured, thinking, "The first batch of Tier 3 talismans only needs 24 pieces. Excluding the eight already made, there are still 16 Tier 3 talismans to be made. Now there are still 2 Tier 3 talismans. Nineteen pieces, plus six or seven pieces that will be newly made in the future, that is thirty-five, six pieces of third-order talisman paper..."

Speaking of this, Shang Xia looked at Zhang Haogu and said with a smile: "Compared with martial talismans of the same level, the production of array talismans is relatively simple. Maybe before the supplies are exhausted, we can make twenty-four third-tier array talismans All symbols are ready."

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

"Hmph, arrogance!" Fan Yuanhui dismissed it.
