Murong Chang Feng raised his chin, the side of his face lengthened to a degree that appeared incomparably haughty, as if he anticipated his own win. He already took a step forward and was going to receive everyoneâs worship.
But didnât expect that Master Tu Tian would control his voice and loudly read âHelian Wei Weiâ, that name!
Clang!
The thing within the human figureâs hand dropped.
Even Huan Ming Xiang didnât foresee that this would be the outcome. He stood fixed at his spot, and simply didnât have time to react.
Murong Chang Fengâs smiling expression, during that split second, clearly solidified at its original position. He opened his eyes wide in amazement as the step he was taking also immediately froze in its original position. His fingers slightly trembled as he turned his head and glanced at Wei Wei, blood thoroughly drained from his face!
Howâs this possible!
How could he lose to a girl thatâs got nothing going for her!
Everyone was stunned by this outcome as they opened their mouths and forgot to close them. Right now, the stageâs so quiet it seemed that one could hear a pin drop.
Couldnât, it couldnât be...
The person who won was that good-for-nothing?
The girl that was sneering just now and Helian Jiao Erâs expression simultaneously started cracking. The words they originally wanted to speak in ridicule now was completely choked back into their throats. Their cheeks were both green and white, not very spirited in color.
While everyone was shocked dumb, a black and white robed Wei Wei slowly walked up towards the front.
Her expression didnât change at all. That smile that wasnât a smile was still on her little face as before, yet for a split second people thought they were seeing things.
Her clothing was very simple, without any accessories, the long sleeves floated in the air, black hair flew upwards. Surprisingly, within the contrasting black and white, the aura of a peerless talent began to emerge.
The audience blanked out as they watched this scene, what insanity was this?
A good-for-nothing unexpectedly defeated Lord Murong!
When did this girl become so awesome?
Wasnât she ignorant of everything?
Murong Chang Feng basically couldnât accept this result. He, the heir of the magnificent Murong Princeâs Mansion actually lost to a good-for-nothing who previously hadnât attended any armaments class nor touched any armaments before? !
Murong Chang Feng fiercely suppressed the undulating discomfort in his chest and turned his head towards the not so distant judges seats to say. âMasters, I drew up three designs, one more than what youâve requested. I really donât understand how I lost.â
Master Tu Tian could hear the discontent in the way Murong Chang Feng spoke, as he faintly creased his white eyebrows, shortly after which he sighed. This disciple of his was still too arrogant. âYouâve indeed drawn up three plans, thatâs true, and theyâre designed quite well.â
That master sitting next to Tu Tian knew that it was uncomfortable for Tu Tian to speak, so he straightforwardly responded to Murong Chang Fengâs inquiry, with a smile in his voice. âLord Murong, sigh, youâve already done a great job, however, your opponent has drawn up more than twice your number of designs.â His implication was, just what is there to complain about.
Murong Chang Fengâs face trembled and seemed to be full of disbelief. âTwice as many designs as mine? Impossible, thatâs absolutely impossible! Those components that master provided can only be used to make five different armament designs at most, seven or eight designs are basically impossible!â
Hearing Murong Chang Feng say that itâs impossible, the light in Helian Jiao Erâs eyes changed, as she bit her red lips and said. âMaster, is there maybe a problem, even if someone is Grandmaster Zi Zunâs disciple, they still canât change that much, right?â
âAre you saying that Iâm shielding Helian Wei Wei?â That masterâs complexion darkened, and spoke in an agitated manner. âSince you feel that as a judge, Iâm not impartial, how about you be the judge.â
Hearing that, Helian Jiao Erâs face erupted with embarrassment. âI definitely am not saying that masterâs being partial, I only wonder if someone may have played a trick...â Otherwise, how could that slut win!
âThatâs enough!â At this moment, the one who hadnât spoken, Master Tu Tian, coldly opened his mouth. âI didnât want to speak, because I didnât want to embarrass the Superior Compound too much, this result was based on my judgment, if Miss Helian still objects, then probably even I should be disqualified as a judge.â After saying this, he turned and glanced at Master Bai, his voice replete with annoyance. âSo these are the students that Master Bai has always been proud of. Theyâve really expanded my horizons. Hehe, if the Superior Compoundâs students are all like this, then Iâll propose to the principal that weâd better get rid of the Superior Compound as soon as possible!â
Master Bai became rigid and seemed as if he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Tusu Feng gently smiled and didnât respond at all.
This Master Tu Tian was truly angry now!
Not only Helian Jiao Er, after everyone from the Superior Compound heard these words, they all felt as if theyâd been slapped on the face.
Everyone who originally had doubts, in this moment also didnât dare to have suspicions.
Master Tu Tian was Lord Murongâs master, yet even he claimed that thereâs no problem whatsoever with the competition.
Then the person who won was really Helian Wei Wei!
Tu Tian also didnât care about everybodyâs response as he handed the rolled up fine paper to the teacher by his side. âHave him take a look at it himself.â
The teacher bowed his head and passed Wei Weiâs designs over to Murong Chang Fengâs hand.
Murong Chang Feng saw each distinct train of thought, each simplified analysis, every single word to the point and relevant to the answer. The pupils of his eyes repeatedly constricted and dilated.
Heâd never thought that those components could be used in these ways.
What the sixth armament referred to, in particular, wasnât something that he, or maybe even his master could have known. The little component that they deemed to be of the least value, could actually have such a big effect!
âShe, she really drew up these seven or eight designs?â
At a distant place, the human figureâs voice shivered. âElder Huan, why didnât you tell me earlier that you were acquainted with an armaments genius!â
Huan Ming Xiang opened his eyes wide. âWhat would you have me say, I didnât know at all that this girl knew armaments. I only knew that her ability martial qi was similarly incredible! In regards to other things, I also only discovered it today!â He was also very depressed, OK? ! He and that girlâs been together for tens of days now, yet heâs surprisingly still unclear about whatâs going on with that girl!
âMy god, what kind of freaks have the Inferior Compound admitted this year!â The human figure called them freaks, but his eyes actually were shining with the light of seeing rare treasures!
Huan Ming Xiang rubbed his chin, murmuring to himself. âNo wonder! Tusu Feng, that despicable fellow, suddenly wanted to head the Inferior Compound himself. Since the icey youngster is that person, then the student next to him who chose divination as his specialty...who can he be?â
âElder Huan, whatâre you saying? Whoâs who?â The human figureâs was only thinking of Wei Wei. Right now, he only wished that after this,he could see what she looked like when she personally assembled armaments.
Huan Ming Xiang curved his lips and smiled, deep in thought. âNothing. I was saying that youâre right, this year, the Inferior Compound totally collected a bunch of freaks.â
And Murong Chang Feng standing on the stage, as he heard the drawn breaths by his ears, his body stiffened.
He...truly lost?
He lost to the girl who he disdained the most?
