Lu Qingning had roughly gauged the strength of the other direct disciples from the spectator stands today.
Fang Hongmian's prowess in strength and artifact forging was around +8, while Yun Chi's proficiency with talismans was likely a +9 or +10.
Because talisman cultivators rarely appeared in matches, Lu Qingning could only make a rough guess. As for Liu Guang and Gongsun Cong, both were experts in attacks and spells, sitting firmly at +8 and +9.
As for her own self-assessment, Lu Qingning felt her swordsmanship attacks were around +12, and factoring in spells, reaching +15 was not out of the question.
This meant Lu Qingning could easily handle a nameless Nascent Soul Early Stage novice wielding a mortal-grade sword without any magical treasures.
Of course, this was purely theoretical.
In the Tianjian Sect, where everyone seemed capable of challenging opponents above their rank, this theory clearly still needed refinement.
"Both contestants, enter the arena."
Gongsun Cong walked over with a staff in hand, cupped his fists in a salute to Lu Qingning, and said, "Please advise me."
"Please advise me," Lu Qingning replied, holding the Qiancang Sword.
