Chapter 326: 【326】Has anyone ever told you that you’re a bit too clever for your own good?_1
Sitting in the jury seat, Yao Guhuai felt equally relieved.
He had taken on several disciples, so of whom had already made a na and fortune in the antiques world.
But Zhong Pan’er was the most talented one among his disciples.
Having studied with him for less than three years, she had already achieved a very high level of expertise in antique appraisal.
It was within his expectations that she would pass the junior ceramic appraisal examination.
The other judges also congratulated him one after another.
He rely nodded and smiled politely, without making too much of a fuss.
As for Zhong Pan’er herself, she was ecstatic, jumping on the spot.
This was her first ti participating in an appraiser assessnt, and she had started off with a perfect score, which delighted her.
The other participants also ca up to congratulate her.
Zhong Pan’er returned each gesture in kind. At least in terms of etiquette, she was impeccable.
However, as she waited left and right, the one person’s congratulations never ca.
Turning her head, she saw Tang Feng still standing in the sa place, apparently with no intention of coming up to congratulate her.
Her heart imdiately flared with anger as she marched over to Tang Feng, “How can you be so impolite?”
Tang Feng looked at her puzzled, “What’s the matter?”
“I was the only one who got a full score in this assessnt, and everyone else has congratulated . Why haven’t you expressed any congratulations?” Zhong Pan’er took on her haughty deanor once again, which greatly irritated Tang Feng.
“Why should I congratulate you when I hardly know you?” Tang Feng retorted righteously.
Caught off guard, Zhong Pan’er stamred, “I… We are both participants in the assessnt, shouldn’t there be at least the most basic courtesy of a congratulation?”
Tang Feng didn’t want to continue arguing with her and begrudgingly nodded, “Fine, congratulations on getting a full score.”
“That’s not sincere at all. I know why. You’re mad with jealousy because I got the full score, so you’re lashing out in frustration and purposely showing a long face, right? Hmph, so petty.” Zhong Pan’er believed she had seen right through Tang Feng’s mind and couldn’t help but taunt him.
Tang Feng was amused by her words, “Why would I be jealous of you?”
“Because I got the only full score, while you, this so-called genius, were beaten by soone insignificant like . Your pride must be wounded. You must really hate now, right? You feel the frustration of ‘If Yuyi is here, why should Liang exist?'”
Zhong Pan’er was smug with the belief that she had understood his mind, a triumphant smile on her pretty face.
Looking at her for a mont, Tang Feng suddenly said, “Has anyone ever told you that you’re a bit presumptuous?”
“What do you an?” Zhong Pan’er’s smile froze, and she stared at him intently.
“The results haven’t been fully announced yet. How can you be sure you’re the only one with a full score? When the premise is not established, everything else is nonsense,” Tang Feng ruthlessly poked a hole in her logic.
“Ha, now only your score hasn’t been announced. You don’t really think you could get a full score too, do you? No way,” Zhong Pan’er mocked unreservedly, finding his idea far-fetched.
A person who handed in his paper in less than five minutes still expects to get a full score?
It’s simply wishful thinking!
“Until the final results are announced, anything is possible,” Tang Feng said with an inscrutable smile on his face.
Zhong Pan’er hated his smile, feeling like a fool in front of him.
Before she could get angry, the middle-aged man began to announce Tang Feng’s results.
“Tang Feng…”
“Shush shush shush…”
The mont Tang Feng’s na was read out, all the participants’ eyes focused on the middle-aged man’s face.
If you were to ask who among the participants was the most curious about the results,
it goes without saying that it had to be Tang Feng.
As soone on equal terms with Ouyang Yushan, he was thought to have so skills.
But during the assessnt, he only took five minutes to submit his paper, which shocked everyone.
So what would his results be, excellent or extrely poor? This left plenty of room for everyone’s imagination.
Before the final results were out, both possibilities were open.
With so many eager eyes on him, the middle-aged man felt imnse pressure. Each word he uttered seed to take all his strength.
“Tang Feng, assessnt score: 100 points, pass!”
As he announced the final result, the venue suddenly fell silent.
The participants seed as if they hadn’t heard it clearly and were still lingering there with their ears perked.
The middle-aged man had no choice but to repeat the answer, “Tang Feng, assessnt score: 100 points, pass!”
“Whoa…”
When he repeated the result, the participants imdiately burst into an uproar.
“Oh my God, did I hear that right? Tang Feng… actually got a full score too?”
“Sweet mother, how is that possible? He clearly didn’t examine the ceramics thoroughly just now, how could he get a full score?”
“There’s a conspiracy, there must be. Otherwise, how could he get everything right?”
“Exactly, isn’t he close to Ouyang Yushan? Ouyang must have helped him cheat by leaking the answers beforehand.”
“It’s unfair, we should all report them to the organizers. This foul play is too obvious, right?”
The imdiate reaction from the participants was that Tang Feng had cheated.
Others took half an hour and still hadn’t examined all the ceramics.
Yet he took less than five minutes to glance over them and accurately identified all the genuine items.
It was inconceivable.
Apart from cheating, they couldn’t think of any other possibility.
For a ti, the noise of the crowd echoed throughout the stadium.
Participants from the other assessnt areas, as well as spectators on site, all turned their attention to the commotion here.
As the noise grew louder, it eventually drew the attention of the judges.
The ten judges had no choice but to step in to diate.
“Please keep calm and don’t disrupt the order of the assessnt. If you have any complaints, feel free to voice them, but please do not disturb the peace,” said Ouyang Yushan, speaking on behalf of the judges as the most respected master among them.
