Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 102: Daily Life 28

After dinner, Nan Chu left the cafeteria.

Once night fell, Nan Chu used a tool to sneak into Xie Xiaolan’s room.

Appearing like a ghost before Xie Xiaolan’s bed, Xie Xiaolan opened her eyes to see Nan Chu standing at her bedside.

Her pupils dilated in fear, and before she could react, Nan Chu struck, causing Xie Xiaolan to die in disbelief.

After she died, Nan Chu used a tool to handle Xie Xiaolan’s corpse.

After dealing with the corpse, Nan Chu also cast a Forbidden Technique to prevent other magicians from divining Xie Xiaolan’s fate.

The next day, the magician tournament began.

Meanwhile, Xie Xiaolan’s sect mates found it impossible to contact her and tried to divine her whereabouts using her birth information, but they could not succeed.

Unable to figure out her location, they decided to focus on the magician tournament, which was more important.

This magician tournament had three stages, each ranking scores.

The first place earned 100 points, the second place 90 points, the third place 80 points, the fourth place 75 points....

The scores of the magicians entering the top 30 from each sect in the three stages were tabulated, with more resources awarded to the sect with higher scores.

The first stage was a talisman competition, drawing talismans within an hour!

The higher the score, the victory.

Low-level talismans were worth 1 point, Intermediate talismans 2 points, Advanced talismans 5 points, and Master level talismans 10 points....

For fairness, all participating magicians used brushes, talisman papers, vermillion, etc., provided by the National Strange Talent Agency.

Holding the brush, Nan Chu began drawing talismans, and Nan Chu drew them swiftly, maintaining stable mana, mostly creating advanced talismans.

Occasionally, a Master-level talisman would appear.

When the hour ended, Nan Chu earned 680 points, firmly securing first place in the first stage.

The second place was Min Weihua from the Ziwei Sect, scoring 525 points.

The third place was Zhang Quan from the Taihua Sect, scoring 482 points.

The Tai Chi Sect Leader was delighted; winning the first stage was a rare achievement for them.

The second stage was an array-breaking contest.

Breaking more arrays within an hour earned more points.

Nan Chu was very familiar with arrays, breaking them swiftly.

Sects watched clearly through the live broadcast cameras, witnessing Nan Chu’s unconventional violent magic approach to breaking arrays.

Sect Leader You Yong from the Yellow Dao Sect said, "Old Xiang, when did your sect take in such a formidable disciple? Truly kept hidden."

"A rare talent in talisman making, and also remarkable with arrays."

Xiang Zhan replied, "This disciple joined years ago, usually low-profile. She’s a star too, often busy filming."

Pang Ang, the Five Elements Sect Leader, stroked his beard and said, "This disciple’s face is inscrutable."

Xiang Zanyi said, "A magician’s face should not be easily seen."

The other sect leaders secretly envied and begrudged the Tai Chi Sect for having such a talented disciple.

Chang Ji, the Qimen Sect Leader, said, "Old Xiang, shall we bet if your sect can win first place? I’ll wager a spiritual artifact, how about it?"

"Alright." Xiang Zanyi agreed.

Subsequently, other sect leaders also placed their bets.

Three sect leaders bet the Tai Chi Sect could take first place, while eight bet against it, with some minor sect leaders merely spectating.

An hour later, Nan Chu won first place again, leading the Tai Chi Sect to temporarily surpass other sects.

The second place was currently held by the Five Elements Sect, only 10 points behind Tai Chi Sect, a slight gap.

The third was the Ziwei Sect, 18 points behind Tai Chi Sect.

To secure first, they’ll need to excel in the third stage.

The third stage was ghost capturing.

Magicians were not allowed to bring any weapons, relying solely on their own magic to capture ghosts.

The competition lasted four hours.

He Ming Mountain had demarcated an area for the contest, releasing five hundred ghosts, both good and evil.

They aimed to capture ghosts who committed many evil deeds; capturing the wrong ones would result in a score deduction.

At 7 p.m., the third stage began.

Nan Chu entered the ghost-catching area, using magic to locate ghosts.

Quickly, Nan Chu found the position of a ghost.

Nan Chu used her movement technique to rapidly move towards the ghost’s location, and within minutes, she saw a wandering soul, high in evil energy and eligible for capture.

Nan Chu used her magic to engage the wandering soul, which had no spell techniques, only close-combat skills.

The wandering soul was no match for Nan Chu and was quickly captured.

After capturing the wandering soul, Nan Chu continued her pursuit, heading to areas thick with yin energy. However, upon arrival, she found Qimen Sect’s magician already fighting a Fierce Ghost.

Nan Chu immediately changed direction, heading elsewhere, and after several minutes, discovered a Fierce Ghost.

Nan Chu deployed Thunder Magic, aiming for the Fierce Ghost, which dodged quickly, but Nan Chu predicted its evasion direction, creating a Fire Magic wall at the direction of its dodge.

The Fierce Ghost was injured by the Fire Magic wall.

Nan Chu used Instant Flash to appear beside the Fierce Ghost, striking it fiercely, and capturing it.

After capturing one Fierce Ghost, Nan Chu quickly moved towards other directions.

After four hours, the third stage ended with Nan Chu securing first place again.

Nan Chu had captured thirteen Fierce Ghosts and twenty-four wandering souls.

Thanks to Nan Chu, the Tai Chi Sect successfully claimed first place in the magician tournament.

For the next three years, state resources allocated by the country would be prioritized for the Tai Chi Sect.

Xiang Zhan delightedly collected his winnings and shared the spiritual artifacts with the three sect leaders who bet on Tai Chi Sect.

It’s been over twenty years since the sect last achieved first place, finally, the Tai Chi Sect has rose to prominence.

They claimed first place!

Upon returning to the sect, they must reward Nan Chu well.

The other sect leaders could only watch Xiang Zanyi’s glee.

One must admit, the Tai Chi Sect recruited a brilliant disciple, or else they wouldn’t have won first.

The next day, Nan Chu returned to Tai Chi Sect with her fellow sect members, where Xiang Zanyi held a celebration.

Celebrating the Tai Chi Sect’s first place victory.

Nan Chu also received a spiritual artifact reward from Xiang Zanyi, a sword, which she quite liked.

After the celebration, Nan Chu received a special assignment from Xiang Zanyi.

In the Akta Mountain of Country D, a deceased sect disciple discovered a mysterious ancient tomb group.

The deceased disciple’s message said that spiritual treasures might exist within this tomb.

Their mission was to verify the presence of any spiritual treasures and, if there are, to endeavor to seize them.

Spiritual treasures are superior to magic artifacts and spiritual artifacts.

The hierarchy for magician artifacts is:

Magic Artifact (Low Grade, Middle Grade, Top Grade, Top-grade),

Spiritual Artifact (Low Grade, Middle Grade, Top Grade, Top-grade), Magic Treasure (Top Grade, Middle Grade, Top Grade, Top-grade),

Spiritual Treasure (divided into Acquired Spiritual Treasure, Innate Spiritual Treasure),

Ancient Treasure (spiritual treasures left by ancient times),

Mystic Treasure (spiritual treasures from the Upper Realm dropped to the Lower Realm).

There exists only one Spiritual Treasure nationally preserved by Xia Country’s Specialist Institution.
