Chapter 43 - Director Maia

At the entrance of the Ernst Institute, Xi Erman frowned as she walked back and forth. The management of the Ernst Institute was still very strict. As an outsider with no power or influence, he did not have the qualifications to directly enter the academy's interior.

After a while, Ye Lu who was dressed in blue robes walked over with Lei Nuo.

"Uncle Xi Erman, you're looking for Lin Feng again." Ye Lu said passionately.

Xi Erman had also seen Lin Feng's three brothers before. Upon seeing Ye Lu and Lei Nuo, she immediately went over and asked: "Hello, why hasn't Lin Feng returned to celebrate New Year this time?"

Lei Nuo reacted quickly as he laughed, "Uncle Xi Erman, he trained hard all along, reaching Magician level 6 before the test at the end of last year. And then, he once more went to the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts to undergo this trial. Hai, he was in too much of a hurry to train, he didn't even take the year-end exam. On the contrary, Di Kexi has actually reached Magician of the sixth rank in this test, and others are saying that Di Kexi has surpassed Lin Feng. "

As Lin Feng's good brother, Lei Nuo naturally knew that Lin Feng had long since reached the realm of a level 9 Magister. However, without Lin Feng's permission, he didn't dare to leak out this shocking news. If anyone else found out about this, it would cause a huge earthquake.

"Third Bro doesn't care about those useless things." That's right, Uncle Xi Erman, Lin Feng went to the Beast Mountain Range in mid-April last year and would probably be back before long. If you do, just tell me. I'll definitely tell him at the first moment. " Ye Lu said politely.

Xi Erman pondered for a moment, squeezed out a smile, and shook her head: "No, nothing important. It's just that Lin Feng always went back to celebrate New Year. He didn't come back this time, so the family came to ask him about something because they were worried about him. Since you know that Lin Feng is going to the Beast Mountain Range to train, that's fine too. "

"Uncle Xi Erman, don't worry. When third brother comes back, I will definitely let him go back earlier so that you guys will be at ease." Ye Lu immediately said.

But Xi Erman shook her head: "No need, no need to urge Lin Feng to come back, let him cultivate in peace. It won't be too late when he comes back when he has time. "Thank you, you two. I'll be leaving first."

Ye Lu, Lei Nuo watched Xi Erman leave. She then turned around and left with a smile.

"Young Master Ye Lu, Young Master Ye Lu." A passionate voice could be heard from afar.

Ye Lu and Lei Nuo turned to look at the distance outside the academy. There was a carriage parked there, and beside it were four armored knights. Ye Lu frowned, puzzled. "Who's calling me? Oh. It's Austoni. " Ye Lu saw the face of the carriage.

Austoni was the first to jump down from the horse carriage, he smiled humbly at Ye Lu before respectfully attending to him. At this time, the curtains of the horse carriage opened, and a bald old man walked down slowly with a cane.

Ye Lu and Lei Nuo looked at each other in confusion.

"Who is this old fellow? He's quite the style." Lei Nuo said in a low voice.

Ye Lu shook his head and whispered, "I don't know this old fellow either. It had to be some big shot. Austoni was one of the top executives of the Proulx Gallery. Their status is still quite high. "

Accompanied by Austoni, the bald old man walked over with a smile.

"Hello, little Ye Lu." The bald old man smiled and greeted Ye Lu, "Not long ago, I met your father, and he even praised you. Haha, Dawson has a son like you, a Magician, which is indeed something to be proud of. "

Ye Lu looked at the bald old man in confusion.

He said he knew his father? To get close to him?

Austoni immediately said from the side, "Young Master Ye Lu, this is the chief instructor of our Proulx Gallery. You can call him Director Maia."

"No need. You can call me Uncle Maia. Your father and I have been friends for decades." The bald old man said with a warm smile.

Ye Lu was secretly shocked.

The Proulx Gallery. This was an art shrine. There were branches in several of Yulan continent's biggest cities. Just looking at the Proulx Gallery in the Fenlai City and the sculptures within it, the total value of all the sculptures was an astonishing number.

This was only secondary.

The most important thing was status. As the head curator of an artistic holy land, Director Maia knew the people at the top of the Yulan continent, and there were even many Saint-level experts who were on friendly terms with him. How could such a person be underestimated?

In addition, the Proulx Gallery's forces were very strong as well. Otherwise, how could they protect so many precious stone sculptures?

"Uncle Maia." Ye Lu said humbly.

The bald Director Maia looked at Lei Nuo and asked, "This is?"

"This is my good brother, Lei Nuo." Ye Lu immediately introduced him, while Lei Nuo also said politely, "Greetings, Director Maia."

Director Maia nodded slightly. From Lei Nuo's actions, he could sense that Lei Nuo had received very good guidance since he was young.

"Uncle Maia, may I ask why you have come?" Ye Lu asked.

Although it was a question, Ye Lu still had a guess. "It's most likely because of that stone sculpture of Ol 'Three's,' Love '." Last time, before the break in Ernst Institute, Lin Feng had not sent any sculptures over for a period of time. Austoni came over to ask.

As for Austoni, who came to Lin Feng's dorm, he coincidentally saw the sculpture that he visited in the dorm.

With a single glance, Austoni was stunned.

The most important thing was that Lin Feng's stone statue was that it was extremely large, with five pieces that could compare to other people's sculptures.

Just like oil paintings, the price of a stone sculpture was related to its size. After all, for a sculpture to be of such an enormous size, it would definitely cost a great deal of effort and effort. Those five figures in succession, those five lifelike sculptures, had already reached the level of being able to infuse a unique soul with it.

Upon seeing the sculpture, it was as though they were looking at five beautiful women.

Looking at the entire Yulan continent. Even master sculptors were extremely rare. As for Lin Feng's sculpture, it had already surpassed the average master's, and was worthy enough to be ranked alongside the most pinnacle grandmasters in all of history — such as Proulx, Hopkinson, and Hoover.

Now that he was acknowledged as a 'master sculptor', his sculptures were indeed excellent, and he now had a unique aura that could shake the soul.

But their sculptures, when compared to those of the Grandmasters such as Proulx and Hope Jensen, were slightly inferior. Although it was just a small difference, it determined the difference in status.

It had been hundreds of thousands of years since the last stone carving. Most of the stone sculptures from hundreds of thousands of years ago had been annihilated by the flow of time. Only a very small number of special stone works have been passed on to this day. Thus, nine of the ten 'Grandmasters of Stones' had been ranked within a hundred thousand years.

And since the The Yulan Empire unified the continent. From the year 001 of the Yulan calendar to the present day, there were only two people who were on par with their predecessors … Proulx and Hope Jensen.

And Hoover. This was a master sculptor from a hundred thousand years ago, who had created a masterpiece, the Bloody-eyed Maned Lion. The unique qualities of the sculpture caused it to be passed down throughout the ages, establishing Hoover's eternal reputation.

In the past ten thousand years, only two Grandmasters had been born. "Of course, Proulx is one of the most powerful sculptors in history. Three of his sculptures are listed in the 'Ten Great Stones'." Not everyone of the ten Grandmasters had a single piece of art that was listed in the top ten.

This was only the evaluation from the later generations, which showed that their sculptures were of an artistic level. It was roughly the same size as the ten stone sculptures.

A new Grandmaster had been born. Moreover, it was a young man who was only seventeen years old!

What an astonishing event this was. This was why the managing director of the Proulx Gallery had hurried over here from the Proulx Gallery of the Dark Alliance.

"No rush." We'll find a private room in the hotel and have a quiet chat. " Director Maia wasn't in too much of a hurry.

A grandmaster sculptor?

What a joke!

Austoni had a good eye, but sculpting was an art with a long history. It required a very sharp eye in order to be evaluated. For example, a masterpiece of a master sculptor. They had all reached a point where they contained a unique aura and the soul itself.

How to determine if a person was qualified to become a grandmaster sculptor was an extremely profound knowledge.
