Listen, everyone, please give me some support, support!
This talisman was collected by Zhang Liang after he began to suspect that Wang Meng was the person Li Tianyi was looking for, so it is quite comprehensive, containing both factual investigations and Zhang Xiaojiang's oral accounts. It just so happened that it would be of great use today.
When everyone saw Wang Meng's background, they were even more stirred up. It included Wang Meng's and Zhang Xiaojiang's experiences. Despite having only a second-layer Life Mark, Wang Meng was initially rejected from the Saint Hall's preliminary test but managed to enter the Thunderlight Hall through the retest. Facing the difficult challenge of cultivating spirit fields, he passed with wisdom and perseverance. According to Zhang Xiaojiang's evaluation, Wang Meng never gives up, firmly doing what he sets out to do, a true man, a true big brother. For cultivation, he has been stationed in the spirit fields since entering the Thunderlight Hall, practicing diligently every day, focusing on his tasks, and bravely facing challenges from the Cross Mountain Hall.
All of his achievements today are due to his unwavering dedication to his dream of becoming a sword cultivator in the Saint Hall!
Everyone was deeply moved. In fact, everyone is similar; who doesn't have dreams? Some want to be sword cultivators, some want to be physical cultivators, some want to be alchemy cultivators... But talents vary, and although hard work might earn the favor of heaven and win everything, the reality is harsh. These things only happen to geniuses and those with deep backgrounds.
As for Wang Meng, he had nothing, not even being a closed-door disciple of an elder. A second-layer Life Mark is already the lowest standard for entering the Saint Hall, but such a person won the favor of three ancestors through his own efforts.
What is this? This is the power of dreams!
It must be said that Zhang Liang is very good at stirring emotions. With his embellishments, Wang Meng's personal introduction was written in an incredibly touching way, almost making Wang Meng seem like a beggar.
Even Wang Meng's lack of contributions and borrowing contribution points from Ma Tian'er were included, though this was definitely not something Ma Tian'er said, but rather something Liu Mei mentioned in a casual conversation.
But at this moment, all of this became a shining point for Wang Meng. Honestly, who didn't have a hard time when they first entered the Saint Hall? It all felt like a return to the past.
Zhang Liang didn't care about the effect of this personal talisman because he had no time; he was completely selling like crazy.
Replicating talismans was relatively fast, but even so, each batch sold out instantly. Another batch, and it was sold out again. The messengers from his subordinates would always bring back a note saying they were desperately short of stock.
However, Zhang Liang didn't take the opportunity to raise prices. He knew this was a good chance to promote his brand, so he hired a few more people to work overtime. Despite the low contribution points, the sheer volume meant that after deducting the shares for his subordinates, he still made a good profit.
The ordinary disciples of the Saint Hall all wanted to see this Wang Meng, who was just like them, or even worse off, and find out what had moved the ancestors.
It's easy to imagine how lively the Thunderlight Hall is now, to the point that the previously most popular Flying Phoenix Hall is now deserted.
Yang Ying and the four golden flowers of the Flying Phoenix Hall had just finished watching the talisman. Zhang Liang had given it to them for free, and while others might forget, Yang Ying, who is like a fairy, could not be overlooked.
"Is this real? So exaggerated, such a man is very charming!" Gao Dandan said with a smile.
"Little girl in love, I think it's exaggerated. Watching his battle with the Cross Mountain Hall, his level is quite high. Second-layer natural, and he entered through the retest. Tsk, tsk, it's hard to believe," Wan Fanghua said, finding it unbelievable.
"It shouldn't be far off. This can't be faked. It's hard to imagine how much he must have paid to get to where he is today. The first time I saw him, I knew he was a type with an incredibly strong will," You Yuqing said.
"Just to move three ancestors, this is too exaggerated. I'm very curious about what amazing deeds he did," she added.
"Talent comes in many forms. Some are visible, some are not. Some like to show off, some are low-key. Wang Meng is the type who doesn't care about showing off," Yang Ying suddenly said.
"Oh? What about now?" Shu Rou was a bit curious, as he was now in the spotlight.
"Times make heroes. He has the ability, and it was just a matter of time. If he were to become famous, breaking Li Tianyi's Nine Heavens Departing Fire Sword would be enough to shock the Saint Hall," Yang Ying said, suddenly remembering Wang Meng's deep eyes.
"Ah, the rumor is true!"
"Whether it's true or not doesn't matter now. Do you want to go and see?"
"Forget it. I heard the Thunderlight Hall is packed, and you can't even squeeze in."
There were too many people, and girls always have lingering fears, especially such beauties. But girls' curiosity is always strong, and this feeling was indeed a bit itchy.
They couldn't get in, but Zhao Tianlong could. As soon as he showed the golden sign of Ancestor Zhao, the crowd immediately made way.
With so many people talking about the same name, it was hard for Zhao Tianlong not to know. He didn't even notice that Zhao Lingxuan was smiling like a blooming lotus.
She knew Wang Meng must be capable. She had wanted to encourage the ancestor to come and support the Thunderlight Hall, but it turned out to be unnecessary.
But now, Zhao Tianlong definitely wanted to see. Everyone desires talent, and what the three were up to was suspicious. Seeing three people interested in one person, Zhao Tianlong's first reaction was that there must be a hidden agenda!
Hu Jing hurried out to greet him. Zhou Qian and the others had already gone to find Wang Meng, and now another one was coming. Please don't let this one be looking for Wang Meng too. Wang Meng was usually easy to find, but now, at this critical moment, he was nowhere to be found, which was really strange!
"Pay respects to Ancestor!" Hu Jing said.
Hu Jing knew that among the six ancestors, Zhao Tianlong was the most rigorous and formal, so she didn't dare to be the slightest bit negligent.
Zhao Tianlong nodded slightly, "Do you have a disciple named Wang Meng here?"
"Yes, Ancestor," Hu Jing replied respectfully, without saying more.
Zhao Tianlong didn't immediately continue but looked at Hu Jing a few times, "You are the Hu Jing that Xiao Ya mentioned? Hmm, not bad."
The Zhao family had originally wanted to take over the Thunderlight Hall, thinking that a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. They sent Zhao Ya and Zhao Guang to take over, but it failed. Zhao Tianlong was still a bit unhappy about it, but hearing that Zhao Ya had a talented disciple was a consolation. Now, seeing Hu Jing, he was indeed satisfied. Moreover, Hu Jing was now the senior sister of the Thunderlight Hall, which was a good thing.
"Xiaoxuan, meet Senior Sister Hu."
"Zhao Lingxuan meets Senior Sister Hu," Zhao Lingxuan said obediently. Anyone who saw Zhao Lingxuan's cute and obedient appearance would smile, and this move of hers was almost invincible.
"I often hear my master mention that you are a genius that appears once in a hundred years in the Saint Hall. Meeting you in person is even better than hearing about you," Hu Jing said sincerely. Although Hu Jing's status was far below Ning Zhiyuan, Zhao Tianlong was still very pleased.
Behind Zhao Tianlong, Zhao Lingxuan winked at Hu Jing playfully.
"I heard that Wang Meng forged a sword that even Senior Brother Lei and Senior Brother Wu praised highly. I want to see it."
