Chapter 409 - 409 Review Score



409 Review Score

Right then, he suddenly realized that this was indeed not the place to quarrel. Whether he won or lost, the association’s internal discord would be exposed. Hostile forces might even learn about it and use it against them.

He was incredibly unhappy, but he was willing to take a step back for the greater good.

...

Seeing that Liu Yu had been appeased, Lin Xiangyun quickly spoke to Zhang Chunyang. “Old Zhang, don’t forget our duty here!”

Zhang Chunyang glared at Liu Yu and said, “I’ll let you off the hook this time!”

“I believe that we should judge without bias,” Liu Yu said coldly. “We’ll continue our discussion when we get back!”

Zhang Chunyang’s expression grew even colder and darker. He opened his mouth to say something, but Lin Xiangyun pinched his arm fiercely.

Lin Xiangyun knew what Liu Yu wanted to say. In fact, many people knew deep down, but no one said it out loud.

If such things were said in front of the younger generation of blacksmiths, it would be too embarrassing.

They were all seven-star master blacksmiths. If they did not remain levelheaded, they would not be able to face the young blacksmiths with dignity.

Meanwhile, Wu Mo noticed that time was almost up. He pushed open the door and walked toward the center of the venue.

However, as soon as he arrived, he sensed that the atmosphere was a little strange. It seemed a little too tense.

Yet, his competitors’ eyes were filled with anticipation. Why did they appear so excited? It was the new year, but there was no need to be that excited, right?

As he swept his gaze around, he spotted Xu Wanqing standing not far away. Gan Yun, Liu Ze, and Chen Qingbai were also there, so he hurried over.

“What’s going on? Why does the atmosphere feel a little off?” Wu Mo approached Xu Wanqing and asked.

Xu Wanqing did not even look at Wu Mo as she excitedly said, “Master Zhang Chunyang and Master Liu Yu almost got into a fight just now! Sadly, Master Lin Xiangyun stopped him immediately and tried to persuade him otherwise. No one knows what he said, but it looked like they were trying to judge a blueprint. Maybe that’s why they were arguing. I wonder who handed in their blueprint so soon and caused such a huge controversy!”

Hearing this, Wu Mo’s heart skipped a beat. He was 90% sure that the blueprint was his.

He looked at the stage and saw that the masters had already unfolded the blueprint. His sleeve and seal were still on the table. He was almost 100% sure that the judges were looking at his blueprint.

However, the four of them had different expressions on their faces.

Master Zhang Chunyang looked at the blueprint with an extremely serious gaze. There was even a hint of coldness and rejection in his eyes. On the other hand, Master Lin Xiangyun’s gaze was cautious with a hint of doubt. Master Gu Shan’s eyes were filled with excitement and joy, while Master Liu Yu’s face was filled with surprise.

The masters had different expressions, but none of them raised their heads. They kept their heads lowered and remained focused.

The contents of this blueprint were not difficult to understand, but there were many incomprehensible aspects.

They appeared contradictory and complementary at the same time.

It was not difficult for them to understand the functions of the equipment that the blueprint represented. However, what they did not understand was the many details about the arrays and restrictions. Although they could catch a small part of it, they could not understand further.

Gu Shan was excited, Liu Yu was surprised, and Lin Xiangyun was puzzled.

Although Gu Shan appeared to be neutral, he was actually the one who had gone further in the transcendent system. Therefore, he had the deepest understanding of the transcendent knowledge that had been applied to the blueprint. Therefore, he was both excited and happy.

“This design is a real work of genius! With the Underground Shuttle, this participant can meet the conditions in the question that he was given earlier. There’s going to be an ambush up ahead, pursuers at the back, alien races in the sky, and Demon Hounds chasing after them. Under such circumstances, the only way left is to burrow underground. Earlier on, I actually said that this question might be a little too much. I didn’t expect this kid to solve it. The younger generation is truly formidable!”

Gu Shan did not hold back with his evaluation. His eyes were filled with praise, and he did not hide it at all.

Liu Yu glanced at Zhang Chunyang and asked, “Old Zhang, what’s your evaluation? ”

Zhang Chunyang was expressionless at the moment, and he replied in an extremely calm tone, “In terms of creativity, it’s mediocre, and it has no spirit power. It meets the requirements of the question, so he passes, but that’s about it. Sixty points!”

When Liu Yu heard this, he did not appear pleased. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Xiangyun interrupted him, “This design mainly utilizes knowledge of the transcendent system, especially when it comes to the restriction array. It’s mysterious and unfathomable, so I think he deserves at least 95 points!”

Gu Shan nodded as well and said, “If you ask me, I would give him 99 points! He’s not getting that one remaining point because I’m afraid that he’ll become full of himself!”

Liu Yu looked at Zhang Chunyang and said, “What’s the matter? If you still insist on 60 points—”

“What do you mean 60 points? Couldn’t you tell that Old Zhang was just saying that out of anger? Old Zhang is going to give him 90 points. Do you have any objections, Old Zhang?”

Lin Xiangyun had put in a lot of effort to protect the association’s reputation.

Zhang Chunyang kept quiet this time. He did not agree or object, and that indicated his agreement to the score.

“Hmph!” Liu Yu snorted coldly. “I’ll give this blueprint 100 points because even I’m not well-versed with many arrays and restrictions. It’s obvious that the transcendent system is beyond my understanding.”

Although the four of them were already seven-star master blacksmiths, there were still things that they did not know. None of them pretended to know what they didn’t know.

“Alright, since the scores have been decided, let’s combine the four scores and take the average score, which is 96 points. However, this score can only be counted after the equipment is forged and confirmed to be usable. Otherwise, it’ll be invalid, and your score will be 0. How about it?” Lin Xiangyun said decisively.

“No problem!”

“It’s agreed then!”

“Good!”

Lin Xiangyun finally came to a realization. He felt that it was more tiring than forging a piece of Divide-grade equipment. However, he was relieved that they managed to resolve the matter like that.

“That’s it. Let the other participants come to us and hand in their designs! The four of us will take turns cross-examining them!”

Lin Xiangyun really wanted to end the competition as soon as possible so that Zhang Chunyang and Liu Yu would not remember having a conflict again.

Gu Shan chuckled and did not care about this at all. He only reluctantly rolled up Wu Mo’s design and kept it in the roll.

When the participants below saw that there was nothing more exciting to watch, they could not help but feel a little disappointed. However, they still hurried over and handed in their designs.
