The Inscription Association was an official family association, and it had a certain level of authority. Moreover, the imperial city's Inscription Association was the association's top power, just like the imperial capital.
To be able to become the Vice-President of the Association, no matter where this person went in the future, it would be enough to catch everyone's attention.
Those bids were not that important to these people. On the contrary, this name made everyone's hearts burn with passion.
These eighteen Carver s all went up on stage together.
Qing Feng waved his hand. Immediately, a few muscular men brought over the sculpting tables.
At the moment, there were blocks of jade, each of which was of three colors.
The eighteen old monks of the Carver sat down and then began to carve.
These people were really fast. None of them wanted to fall behind.
Although quality and shape were the most important things, no one wished for others to finish carving it. Only he himself could be seen foolishly carving, which made him seem somewhat weak.
Therefore, these people had used all of their family's skills.
The waiters brought in a few more dishes and the waiters took them.
Qing Feng also smiled and said, "Everyone, the results of the carving have not come out yet. Why don't you all eat and drink for a while?"
Although it was just eating and drinking for a bit, the Carver s still had a decent amount of food, and absolutely did not dare to drink.
If any of the Carver s dared to drink wine at this moment, they would not have come to this occasion.
Only, the others did not drink, but Xue Yang laughed and poured himself a cup of white wine. Raising his head, he took a big gulp, and then happily started eating and drinking, causing the people at his table to glance at him.
Master Ouyang Xun was puzzled: "Xue Yang, are you not going to go up the stage later?"
Xue Yang laughed: "Naturally, we are going up on stage."
Ouyang Xun frowned: "Then you still dare to drink?"
Xue Yang asked: "What does drinking have to do with going up the stage?"
Ouyang Xun said: "Aren't you afraid that you will be unable to perform well on stage?"
Without waiting for Xue Yang to speak, one of the old men with white hair snorted: "I am afraid that he does not have the ability to win the competition, so he fell down. He does know his limits."
Only then did everyone understand.
Although everyone knew that the old man was ridiculing Xue Yang, it did not make sense.
Xue Yang was simply too young, and since he had already achieved some attainments in antiques and stone gambling, he would not be able to become proficient in carving.
And with so many masters present, let alone being first place, even being able to enter the top five was something almost impossible. Since he could not win no matter what, why not drink?
Everyone seemed to have guessed Xue Yang's thoughts.
The valiant looking girl harrumphed, "You've already admitted defeat before you even get on the stage. What kind of man are you?"
Hearing that, everyone was startled, they did not think that Xue Yang would still be able to talk so cleverly at this time.
The girl was also slightly stunned from the anger.
The cold-faced man said coldly, "Are the weak always this shameless?"
Xue Yang was too lazy to bother with him.
Mu Rong Shaoyi laughed, "Brother Xue Yang sure is humorous!"
"Generally speaking, he is the third strongest in the world." Xue Yang laughed as he ate.
The girl snorted, clearly annoyed.
The two old men had faces full of disdain.
Smiling Tiger did not say anything, but he did not place any importance on Xue Yang anymore.
Xue Yang naturally could not be bothered to pay attention to him.
Eighteen pieces of art were brought down the stage by the waiters in turn, inviting everyone to admire them.
As a result, a round of bids began, and the most expensive carving item was sold for 30,000 yuan.
This was already quite unbelievable, because the base material was only worth two thousand yuan, and after being gently sculpted by the master sculptor, its value had already doubled.
The second round was held by the men at the 4/5/6 tables.
As there were only twelve people at this table, the Carver at table seven also went up onto the stage.
Xue Yang was seated to the north while the people who were going up on stage clockwise were counted from the south, so it was the last round for Xue Yang.
These four tables had a total of seventeen Carver s.
The most surprising thing was that out of the seventeen sculptures of the Carver, two of them had actually broken through thirty thousand, and one of them had even auctioned off a high price of fifty thousand.
Other than the auctions that appeared during the auction, after each round, the rich people would appoint people to help them carve a finished product. Those who were selected could not refuse, but if one of them was selected by more than one person, the bidding would continue. Whoever bid the most would get a chance to carve from this master.
Finally, it was time for the 8th, 9th, 10th tables.
The last three tables were occupied by about sixteen people.
Qing Feng smiled and said, "Everyone, I am not talented, but I do know a bit about the engraving. Therefore, I had no choice but to temporarily drop my status as a host and join the circle of sculptors."
Laughter rang out from the surroundings.
Xue Yang stood on stage and looked around. Other people might not know him, but there were a lot of people at his table.
The two old men, the cold faced man, Mu Rong Shaoyi, Ouyang Xun, he himself, as well as the valiant and formidable girl.
Xue Yang was not afraid of others, and paid extra attention to Murong Shaoyi.
At this moment, Murong Shaoyi was smiling as if nothing could stop his smile.
Xue Yang became a little more fearful of Mu Rong Shaoyi.
At this moment, the competition had officially begun.
Xue Yang looked at the three-coloured square jade on the carving platform, raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly took out the yellow jade.
Since Xue Yang wanted to win the competition this time, he naturally wanted to carve something that would shock the world and make the spirits cry.
What kind of image could shock the world and make the gods cry?
Dragon.
In this world, of course, only dragons could easily shock the world and make ghosts cry.
Xue Yang used to carve Flood Dragons, but now he had to carve dragons.
A genuine Golden Dragon!
Although Flood Dragons were very similar to dragons, they were still not dragons and could not help but lose some of their Ruler's Qi. With the Evil Dragon's Demonic Qi on the back of its body, no matter how Xue Yang carved it, he would still give off a wild feeling, causing one's mind to be a little restless.
But dragons were different.
The Emperor's Aura of a dragon was enough to cause one's expression to change.
Xue Yang had seen dragons before.
Above Spiritual Bead Space, there was a dragon soaring.
A Golden Dragon.
One had to know that Xue Yang was a powerhouse of the Dragon Mark Realm, but in front of the dragon's might, he could not even take a single blow.
And this was only the shadow of a dragon, what if it was a real dragon?
Xue Yang didn't dare imagine.
So he wanted to carve dragons.
Xue Yang was prepared to treat dragons as his own lifeforms, just like how Feng Yu, the master in the egg, meant.
Everyone should have one Destiny Carving object.
Xue Yang's eyes lit up.
However, Xue Yang did not do it for a long time.
Xue Yang continued to look through the details of the Spiritual Bead Space.
Ever since he had the ability to bring things out of the Spiritual Bead Space, Xue Yang was able to observe the things inside the Spiritual Bead Space in his mind.
Right now, Xue Yang was observing the dragon.
Looking at it bit by bit was not bad at all.
Xue Yang observed in detail.
It was just that Xue Yang himself knew that he was observing the dragon, but the others did not.
Seeing Xue Yang standing there in a daze, everyone raised their eyebrows in disbelief.
"Look, there's actually a kid in a daze on the stage. There's no movement at all."
"Who goes on stage and doesn't seize the time to carve? This person is a bit surprised."
"It can't be that he's already lost, so he can't be bothered about it. However, it's not strange. This kid is so young, and his attainment in carving is obviously not great."
Smiling Tiger looked at Xue Yang who was on stage and smiled, then said: "This brat, I never thought that he would break down on stage and make a joke in front of everyone, could it be that he got sleepy from drinking too much on stage?"
The beautiful woman also laughed and said, "This boy looks very smart, but why is he so stupid in doing this?"
At this moment, an old man was slowly looking down from the balcony on the second floor of the hotel.
Just before Xue Yang came in, Qing Feng had threatened to receive an important guest.
This old man was a distinguished guest that could even move Qing Feng.
Accompanied by the old man were Li Qingxin and Li Qingyue.
Li Qingxin smiled: "Old Master Gong, since you're here, why don't you go down and take a seat?"
The old man smiled. "Since I have already eaten, wouldn't it be a waste for me to sit down?"
The old man's words were quite interesting, and the two girls both started to giggle.
Li Qingyue said: "Old Master, guess who will be the strongest in this competition?"
The old man looked at the crowd and laughed, "Do you want to talk about the third round or the overall situation?"
Li Qingyue replied: "Overall."
The old man laughed and shook his head: "In this day and age, everyone has their own unique technique. How do you know that under his nameless appearance, he doesn't have the ability to hide an expert? Nothing can be judged beforehand. It's just that... This third round has indeed garnered some interest from me. "
"Oh?"
Li Qingxin asked: "Who's so lucky to be able to attract the old man's attention?"
The old man laughed, "Did you see a young man in a daze on the stage?"
Li Qingyue replied, "Of course I saw it. Hmph, that guy, I had already said that he would not understand anything on the engraving. His guess was right, he definitely did not dare to continue carving, afraid that he would lose too easily. Grandfather Gong, please pay attention to what he is doing. "
"Haha."
The old man smiled slightly, a trace of benevolence flashing across his cloudy eyes. "The reason why I pay attention to him is not only because he isn't carving at all. Speaking of which, this is another story."
