Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Sam examined the paintbrush in his hands. This is a very high-level paintbrush. So, high that with his current cultivation, Sam wasnʼt even able to appraise the exact rank of the brush.

But it sure is valuable as Sam saw the scenes within his head when the experiences were transferred to him. This is the brush Murali used when he is at his prime.

One can only guess just what any Painter artisan would be willing to pay for this brush.

As Sam examined the experiences or the memories of Murali in his mind, the one hour passed soon and the remaining candidates returned. From their expressions, Sam could guess that they didnʼt gain anything else.

Arthur is the most frustrated of all. Because he couldnʼt stop his sense of rivalry against Sam.

He believed that he was the best among his peers since his birth, his talent, his resources, his prowess, and cultivation, he won in every aspect among his peers, but one day Arman started raising right under his nose.

He was having enough with one guy and later Sam appeared. He couldnʼt help but have a sense of existential crisis,

After all, he was heavenʼs choice. One of the ten in this world. He had everything catered to him and he has been arrogant all these years. And now with the rise of these geniuses, he is having a hard time digesting the facts that came with the reality check.

This is giving him the fear that he might not be able to stay arrogant forever. And the painting artisanship inheritance showed him just that.

He was worried that Sam would just sweep the rest of the inheritances without care.

After all, from what he knew Sam didnʼt have any expertise in painting, but he had expertise in the remaining three aspects. He already dealt with his weakest link.

While he was being conflicted, Sam already moved to the next room which just opened. He was excited about the next test.

The reward this time enticed him so much. The knowledge and the experiences that a person has acc.u.mulated over decades after mastering a trade with his blood and sweat are being shared with him. He was never this happy with any reward, with the exception of Yanwu and the Divine dimension.

The remaining three followed suit after Sam and entered the room.

The room is the same as the previous one. There is an abyss separating the platform from them and four blocks appeared before them.

Each of them once again occupied the blocks and stood on it.

This time the test is a bit different though.

As the basic inscriptions require a lot of space, the blocks are large and vast. Good enough to create a Rank-6 formation at least.

The first test is to create a Rank-1 inscription with the normal process. It has been a long time since Sam even created an inscription without etching.

He didnʼt like the aspect of wasting so much time on making basic runes. But this time, Sam doesnʼt have to be bothered about it. Because he has a water element. An element that helps the inscription masters.

Sam only took a single glance at the holograph to understand the inscription and then placed his finger in the ink bowl. He started controlling the ink with the water element and the ink followed the motion of his finger.

As he started moving his finger in the air, the ink gracefully laid itself on the floor and within seconds, the required runic pattern appeared and the final step drawing the inscription to the scroll.

Sam threw the scroll to the center and within a second, the runes lit up.

The inscription was finished. All this happened in two minutes. A new block appeared and Sam moved.

The remaining three candidates who are trying to finish the inscription are dazed for a second.

They have learned a thing or two about the inscriptions as they expected the requirement of that knowledge in the tests here so that they could deal with them.

But Samʼs speed in this aspect is a whole new level.

Even Arthur and Andrew who knew Samʼs expertise are having a hard time. They didnʼt expect him to be able to deal with this in two minutes.

The holograph is showing how to create the inscription step by step and they are all following it, but judging from Samʼs speed. He might have even processed the whole inscription just from a mere glance at the picture and did it on his own.

While they are in a daze, Sam is looking at the second test, this time it is not creating an inscription rather cracking an inscription. This seemed to be one of Muraliʼs original works as he never saw an inscription like this before.

After checking the energy flow in the inscription and the arrangement of the runes, all Sam had to do was use the brush and spiritual energy to clear a couple of lines and inject some spiritual energy.

Thatʼs it, the inscription disappeared in the form of spiritual energy particles. Once again all Sam took was two minutes.

The remaining three lost their fighting will.

But they remembered the first test. Although they didnʼt get any benefits, they did learn some aspects, so they wanted to follow the same principle and thus the three of them suddenly felt no pressure as they tried to understand the various aspects of the inscriptions.

Meanwhile, Sam isnʼt the slightest bit bothered by their astonishment. He is maintaining his rocket-like pace without any reservations.

Within four minutes he was done with the third test in which he has to create a Rank-2 inscription and in the next round, he has to crack a Rank-2 inscription.

As expected, it was done in a flash.

Sam is in a zone until the sixth round. He finished a total of six rounds within half-an-hour.

Now there are only four rounds that are left and the seventh round is the one in which he has to create a rank-4 inscription.

This time, Sam took a little more time as he has to guide the ink a little bit careful as the size increased by many folds.

The whole rune drawing process took around ten minutes for him and another thirty seconds to create the inscription on the scroll.

As for cracking it didnʼt take as much time, because, he just used the disintegration on the inscription and it is gone.

He was very excited and donʼt have enough patience to deal with the inscription step by step.

He was thinking that he might encounter a Rank-5 inscription, but to his disappointment, it is a rank-4 complex inscription array built with five Rank-4 inscriptions. In terms of might, it can be considered as a Pseudo-rank 5 inscription.

This time, Sam worked on the inscription and within half an hour, he was done as for the last one inscription which needs to cracked, Sam studied it carefully.

Since there is no challenge he expected, he wanted to try his hand at a challenge without using his disintegration ability. He has a lot of time anyway.

But he still wasnʼt able to help himself. He completed the task in forty-five minutes, even when he worked in his slowest pace.

He shook his head and stepped on the platform. The same thing repeated again. Another set of memories surfaced in his mind as he felt the experiences of Murali practicing the inscriptions in his past.

He disappeared from the spot and entered the main hall. This time with a Brush-pen in his hands. This is a brush-pen that looked extremely similar to the modern-day brush-pen which uses the brush tip instead of a nib.

This one is used for creating the inscriptions. The body of the brush-pen contains various slots for different inks and every slot is separate storage space.

This brush-pen also gave him the same feeling as he got from the Paintbrush. Its rank is far too high.

Sam laid down on the ground as he slept for a while and did all kinds of things to get over his boredom. After two days of this boredom, the remaining three came out with a relieved expression.

They seemed to have gone through a lot.

They have indeed gone through a lot. When they saw Samʼs speed, they started having doubts about the meaning of their lives.

They donʼt know how to react and what to think about his pace. But after some time they got over it and wanted to try their luck in learning these things, but then only then recognized how naïve they were.

The inscriptions are far more difficult than the paintings. There is a lot of foundational requirements to learn these inscriptions, they suddenly had immense respect that formed deep inside their hearts towards the inscription masters.

But they donʼt know that they have to go through another round of suffering. Because, the next room, is for formation inheritance.

The three people felt that they are just hallucinating about the previous day or just struck in the previous time span. Sam moved just as quickly. No, in fact, he moved quickly because he could just throw the formation flags at many places without any worries like losing control of ink when creating runes and this time, he didnʼt even bother to hold back at the last obstacle, dealing another blow to their huge egos.
