After the Chief Elder said "begin," Mo Hua and the disciple in the gold robe both started drawing at the same time.
The disciple in the gold robe was very fast.
His Spiritual Root was special, affined to gold Spiritual Power, and so he was extremely adept at drawing any Gold-series Formation Method, twice as fast as anyone else.
In the entire Five Elements Sect, no disciple could draw the Gold-series Formation Method faster than him.
He was therefore highly regarded by the Chief Elder.
The disciple in the gold robe, full of confidence, wrote with vigor...
But before he had drawn many Patterns, he heard a crisp and slightly immature voice say:
"I'm done!"
The hand of the disciple in the gold robe shook, pressing down a brushstroke that smeared a wide swath of gold ink on the paper.
But he couldn't afford to attend to that.
He stiffly turned his neck to see Mo Hua sitting on the chair, gently swaying, eagerly waiting to hand in his work.
The disciple in the gold robe could hardly believe it.
How long had it been?
And he was finished already?
When Mo Hua's completed Formation was laid out in front of everyone, the Chief Elder's expression became even more somber.
Down to the last detail, it was indeed the Sharp Gold Formation.
The Chief Elder was incredulous.
And even Sect Leader Chu and the Old Ancestor of the Shen Family beside him couldn't snap back to reality.
It was too fast.
All they saw was Mo Hua pick up the brush, dip in the ink, make the stroke, and then with a swishing sound, as though playing around, he finished drawing the Sharp Gold Formation in just a few motions...
This was a First-grade Formation Method.
Could a First-grade Formation Master draw a First-grade Formation Method so quickly?
Is this really the skill level a First-grade Formation Master should have?
The three Golden Core Elders fell into a prolonged silence, unable to utter a single word.
Mo Hua, however, was getting a bit bored waiting and asked:
"What's next?"
Once the competition was over, he could help his master regain his pride, and then he would be able to learn the Ultimate Formation with Thirteen Stripes.
What else is there to compare?
In Mo Hua's crisp voice, there was an air of ease.
This time, not only the Chief Elder, but also Sect Leader Chu and the Old Ancestor of the Shen Family felt the pressure emanating from the young Qi Refinement cultivator in the room...
