Many students were hoping to see Song Nianchu fail at crafting an eighth-rank Golden Silk Talisman. Even some members of the Elder Council shared this sentiment. After all, a student as monstrously talented as Song Nianchu made the old-timers look like complete failures.
Naturally, Elder Xie and Elder Duhong still hoped for her success. After all, they were counting on her to participate in the upcoming Grand Competition. Although the competition was typically reserved for the elite disciples of the Inner Court, Song Nianchu was currently still an Outer Court disciple—but wasn't there still some time left before the event? There were always exceptions to every rule. Who could guarantee that Song Nianchu wouldn't reach the standard required for the Grand Competition within that timeframe?
The two elders kept their eyes fixed on Song Nianchu as she drew. They watched her reach the final step, completing the process without a single error. The resulting talisman was clearly of a high grade or better. Both Elder Xie and Elder Duhong let out a sigh of relief.
