"Looking for a sparring match with ?"
Lu Wangshu glanced at Shangguan Poyun, who was standing beside Purple Thunder True Man, and furrowed her picturesque eyebrows slightly before saying indifferently, "I’ve been focused on the study of talismans over the years and am not skilled in combat. Let’s just forget it."
To her, sparring with cultivators of the sa rank was aningless and pure bullying.
In earlier years, when the Shangguan patriarch ca to Bi Lake Mountain to seek an opportunity, he at least prepared so stakes.
This Purple Thunder True Man made no such gesture, so naturally, she wouldn’t agree.
Not only would she be wasting her talismans and mana, but if she inadvertently crushed the opponent’s mindset, essence, qi, and spirit, she would offend the Shangguan Family for no reason.
Although her family is fearless, Lu Wangshu is similar to Lu Changsheng in this respect, very much disliking trouble.
"Hmm?"
Purple Thunder True Man and Shangguan Poyun’s expressions slightly froze, not expecting Lu Wangshu to refuse so decisively.
It’s known that most geniuses harbor a sense of pride.
Facing a challenge from others, they usually would accept.
Especially sparring between talents, it’s beneficial for mutual progress.
However, the two, with their keen spiritual sense, felt a certain degree of nonchalance from Lu Wangshu’s words and deanor.
It was as if...
The genius before them, heralded as the most promising for Core Formation in the Divine Blade Shangguan Family, was barely worth her notice.
"If you win, this [Thunder Fire Gang Sha] will be yours."
Shangguan Poyun flipped his hand, revealing a deep purple porcelain bottle, and said coolly.
In usual sparring between cultivators, bets and stakes are rare.
Only when a lower-ranked challenger challenges a higher-ranked practitioner, or when a defeated party wishes to challenge a victor, would they prepare treasures as bets and challenge qualifications.
In earlier years, he sparred with Lu Wangshu, and if not for the patriarch’s intervention, he almost died at her hands, suffering a crushing defeat.
Over the years, he honed his blade intent and regarded Lu Wangshu as the final whetstone to break through to Core Formation!
"Poyun!"
The Purple Thunder True Man beside him imdiately called out in a deep voice.
With Lu Miaoge and Lu Ping’an present, even if he wanted to spar, he wouldn’t dare be overly aggressive and domineering.
Moreover, this [Thunder Fire Gang Sha], made from the Nether Fire Sha that Shangguan Poyun obtained and the Shangguan Family’s Purple Thunder Gang Sha, was the finest Core Formation spiritual object.
When breaking through to Core Formation, he could use the "Divine Thunder Saber Art" to form the montum of divine thunder drawing earth fire, increasing Shangguan Poyun’s Core Formation probability by fifteen percent, making it exceedingly rare.
The latter unexpectedly used this most precious Core Formation spiritual object as a bet!
"Thunder Fire Gang Sha?"
Although Lu Wangshu didn’t know its specific grade, even the cheapest Core Formation spiritual object costs tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Moreover, many Lu Family disciples cultivating fire or thunder attribute techniques could exchange for contribution value with this Core Formation spiritual object eventually.
"Wow!"
Beside her, Lu Qingqi, Lu Qingye, and others saw this and thought their elder sister truly earns easily.
Others invite her for a sparring match with Core Formation spiritual objects as starting stakes.
For them, even in ten years, they might not earn that many spirit stones.
"In that case, fine. But my main path is talisman mastery, with puppet dual cultivation, and I’m not skilled in combat. Using a few puppets should be alright, yes?"
Lu Wangshu’s exquisite and beautiful face lit up with a radiant smile as she spoke.
After speaking, as if afraid of scaring the opponent away, she added, "Don’t worry, I won’t use talismans on to form a talisman formation."
Although Shangguan Poyun was formidable, she didn’t believe his frontal attacks could outmatch Lu Lingxiao.
"Fine."
Shangguan Poyun answered directly, maintaining a frosty expression with a sharp aura.
The Purple Thunder True Man’s expression relaxed slightly upon hearing this.
In the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, who didn’t know the illustrious na of Upper Talisman Lu Family’s patriarch Lu Changsheng, whose talisman talent was superb, and who broke through to Core Formation shortly after and could draw Third Rank Superior Grade Talismans.
In this context, with Lu Wangshu being the extrely favored daughter of Changsheng True Master and Fairy Xi Yue, he wouldn’t believe she didn’t carry several Third Rank Talismans.
If Lu Wangshu used Third Rank Talismans, even if Shangguan Poyun was a prodigy, he’d stand no chance.
Even lacking Third Rank Talismans from Changsheng True Master, given her reputation as a talented Talisman Master, having decades of Second Rank Talismans at hand would show that Shangguan Poyun wasn’t a match.
Indeed, wealthy Talisman Masters are really unparalleled within the sa rank.
"I recall there’s a combat arena here in Jiuxiao Immortal City, shall we head there now?"
Lu Wangshu continued, her tone and deanor no longer nonchalant.
"Fine."
Shangguan Poyun’s eyes ignited with battle intent.
After twenty years, he was finally going to erase the sha!
"Wangshu, be careful;
this person has a boiling essence, qi, and spirit, with stored blade montum that hasn’t been released yet..."
Though Lu Ping’an had confidence in Lu Wangshu, he still cautioned.
After all, Shangguan Poyun, being a seed of the Divine Blade Shangguan Family, was indeed extraordinary.
Especially his sharp, subtle blade intent, which certainly stood out among those of the sa rank.
For a Talisman Cultivator like Lu Wangshu, even with dual cultivation body refinent, if close range, it would be difficult to handle.
"Thank you, elder brother."
Lu Wangshu offered a gentle smile, expressing reassurance.
Soon, the people headed toward the combat arena of Jiuxiao Immortal City.
....
Despite Jiuxiao Immortal City being once the first immortal city of Jiang Country, the combat arena, hosting duels between a few Foundation Establishnt cultivators, was considered lively.
At this ti, as Lu Wangshu and Shangguan Poyun’s entourage approached, many exclaid and discussed, coming to witness the spectacle.
After all, the Divine Blade Shangguan Family was a Core Formation noble family under the Heavenly Sword Sect, possessing many industries in Jiuxiao Immortal City.
In earlier years, Shangguan Poyun not only challenged many renowned talents but also held arenas in Jiuxiao Immortal City, gaining fa.
Needless to say about Purple Thunder True Man.
Although the prestige of Changsheng True Master at Upper Talisman Lu Family far exceeded that of Purple Thunder True Man, in Jiuxiao Immortal City, more recognize the Divine Blade Shangguan Family.
