Walking into the Painter Guild, he found himself in a long and broad corridor, with paintings on both sides of it.
Most of them were paintings of the third level, and occasionally, a painting of the fourth level would appear.
There were quite a few people standing in the corridor. They were gathered in groups of twos and threes, admiring the paintings on the walls with an expression of enjoyment on their faces.
However, with Fang Ming's current eyesight, these paintings were no longer that attractive, so he did not take the time to slowly appreciate them, and only casually glanced at them.
Only when he passed by those paintings would he stop to take another look. However, after he finished looking at them, he would shake his head in disappointment and continue walking along the corridor.
Even though these paintings had reached the fourth level, from his perspective, there wasn't the slightest bit of emotion from the Painter in them. It was clear that the painter didn't put much thought into the painting when he was painting, as he had done it purely for the sake of painting!
When he arrived at the end of the corridor, he saw a painting of the fourth level hanging by the intersection. He paused for a moment to take a look at it before he shook his head and proceeded forward with a look of disappointment on his face.
However, this time, his expression and actions just happened to fall into the eyes of an old man who was standing next to the painting. The old man frowned and could not help but ask, "Huh? Young man, do you think this painting is bad? "
"You're asking me?"
Fang Ming was startled, and didn't quite understand what was going on.
He looked around, each and every one of them were old men, all of them were young men, and Yan Minghua had already ran off to who knows where!
Most importantly, the tone of the old man who asked the question didn't seem to be very good!
"Humph!" I am asking you this, this painting of the Thousand Mountains Painting has reached the fourth level of painting, painting Soul Formation. However, after taking a few looks at it, you seem to be disgusted by it. The old man let out a cold snort and slowly said.
His voice was not low, immediately attracting the attention of the surrounding people, all of them casting curious gazes at him.
"Eh, isn't this Grandmaster Jiang?"
Immediately, people recognized the old man.
"This Thousand Mountains Painting seems to be a work of Grandmaster Jiang!"
Another person said.
Yes, the Thousand Mountains Painting was Grandmaster Jiang's masterpiece of pride. It was precisely this Thousand Mountains Painting that confirmed his identity as a Four Star Painter and consolidated his position in the Guild of Painter. However, it was also his only painting of the fourth level.
As a result, when he saw Fang Ming shake his head in disappointment, he was enraged!
There was actually someone who looked down on their own painting, and it was even such a young fellow. Just by sensing his age and aura, one could tell that he was only in his early twenties!
Why!
You little brat, what right do you have to look down on this old man's masterpiece!
"What?" There was actually someone who despised Grandmaster Jiang's paintings? Aren't you being too arrogant! "
"Heh, who doesn't know that in the entire Painter, Grandmaster Jiang's paintings are the hardest to get!"
"Yes, I've heard of that. Unless Grandmaster Jiang is willing to paint himself, no matter how expensive it is, you won't be able to invite a Grandmaster to paint!"
Hearing the crowd around him,'s face lit up with realization. No wonder the old man was unhappy, he was the painter!
It would be weird if he wasn't angry at the other party for shaking his head at his painting!
"I can't say I dislike it," Fang Ming said.
Hearing his words, everyone's emotions eased a little, and Master Jiang's taut face relaxed a little as well. He put his hand on his beard and began stroking it.
"However, this Thousand Mountains Painting doesn't really have anything worth admiring. Selling it for money is still worth some money, but hanging it up for others to appraise is really disappointing!"
However, before Master Jiang could finish stroking his beard, he heard what Fang Ming said. He almost pulled off his beard!
The surrounding people also widened their eyes, as if they had seen an idiot. There was actually someone who dared to say such words, and in front of Grandmaster Jiang at that!
A little money?
A little money?
This was a painting of the fourth level!
Child, you are too arrogant!
He actually dared to say it was disappointing?
Was it a painting of the fifth level or sixth level that did not disappoint?
In fact, if a painting could not be produced from the heart, if a painting could not be painstakingly drawn without the emotions of a painter, then even a painting of the fifth and sixth level would still be disappointing in Fang Ming's eyes!
"Humph!" "Young man, you better think carefully before you speak. Otherwise, if you make others laugh, you will only make others doubt your emotional integrity!" Master Jiang's gaze turned cold as he let out a cold snort.
This Thousand Mountains Painting of his was a fourth level work, and it was actually called 'disappointing' by this young man. To him, this was a form of humiliation, an obvious humiliation!
Seeing him in such a state, Fang Ming was stunned once again. You were the one who took the initiative to ask for your brother's opinion and got him to give you an evaluation.
What was going on with this old man?
"Forget it. Since you don't like listening to the truth, don't ask others for guidance. I truly don't know how to be proud of a painting that you aren't interested in at all!"
Seeing the other party's attitude, Fang Ming could no longer be bothered and waved his hand. After saying that, he followed the directions to the fork in the road and headed towards the main exhibition hall!
"Alright."
"…" The people around him.
Don't like the truth?
Are you sure you're telling the truth?
Consult you?
Child, how old are you?
When Grandmaster Jiang became famous in his early twenties, not to mention you, even your parents might not have been born yet!
Are you sure you have the qualifications to be consulted by Grandmaster Jiang?
Aren't you being too arrogant!
Grandmaster Jiang's words are obviously meant to question you, alright?
You still dare to say that Master Jiang is arrogant?
The most arrogant person now is you, right?
Everyone looked at the young man's background in a daze. Then, they turned around to look at Grandmaster Jiang, only to see that the latter was trembling in anger!
Ever since he had become a four star Painter, countless people had seen his picture of the Thousand Mountains.
No, it was worth a little more!
Yes, with regards to the number of Mysterious Gold Coins in Fang Ming's storage ring, a fourth stage painting was worth seven or eight million, it was indeed considered 'a little bit of money'!
"Which one of you saw a young man in a blue gown?"
At this moment, a voice filled with anger was heard.
"Greetings Gu Dashi, Greetings President Long!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Gu Tianle and President Long. They immediately bowed!
However, from the looks of these two, they were very angry. They didn't even nod at everyone's greetings and just swept their gazes across everyone.
"Gu Dashi, President Long, are you looking for a young man with black skin and short hair that's around this tall?"
Master Jiang suddenly spoke up and gestured with his hand.
"Yes!" It must be him! Where was he? "Where did you go?"
Gu Tianle immediately confirmed, "It's that guy!"
"He went over there!" Master Jiang pointed at the main viewing gallery as he spoke.
