Chapter 329: [329] Aren’t you being too disrespectful to the assessnt?_1
Not only the audience and competitors at the scene, but even the judges’ panel was stunned by Zhong Pan’er.
“Mr. Yao, congratulations on your disciple clearing all four categories. Such talent is indeed rare.”
“Congratulations, it seems like I’ve witnessed a star rising.”
“I didn’t expect a young girl to possess such a gift, it’s truly an eye-opener.”
“A true case of a great teacher producing an outstanding student. The apprentice taught by Master Yao is extraordinary indeed…”
A group of appraisers began to lavish praises upon Yao Guhuai.
The antique circle is quite realistic, too.
Besides your own strength, your school, as well as your disciples, also beco your assets.
Disciples are especially important.
Many masters who made a na for themselves vanished from the scene swiftly because they had no capable disciples to carry on their legacy.
But having a good disciple not only allows the continuation of a master’s skills but can also indirectly elevate the master’s status.
For instance, if not for Li Xiaolong, the na Ye Man might not be well-known to many.
Ouyang Yushan’s high status is due not only to his exceptional appraisal skills but also because his disciples are robust supporters, with many having beco significant masters within the antique field.
Yao Guhuai is still firmly outmatched by Ouyang Yushan, not because there’s much difference in appraisal skills, but mainly because he lacks depth and a disciple who can carry the mantle.
However, they saw this hope in Zhong Pan’er.
Even though she is young now, given her talent, she is sure to achieve greatness in due ti.
When that happens, Yao Guhuai’s reputation will rise significantly; although saying he could surpass Ouyang Yushan would be too bold, reaching his level is just a matter of ti.
Therefore, everyone didn’t mind using the opportunity to get closer to Yao Guhuai.
Yao Guhuai thanked everyone for their congratulations, maintaining a faint smile on his face.
On the surface, he seed unaffected by honor or disgrace, but inside, he was overjoyed.
In the past, no matter the occasion, he was always overshadowed by Ouyang Yushan.
Today, he finally had a chance to hold his head high.
Does Ouyang Yushan have such an extraordinary disciple? He does not!
In the end, what appraisers compete for is a legacy and influence.
Having a treasure-like disciple such as Zhong Pan’er, Yao Guhuai’s influence in the Zhonghai Antique Circle is set to rise a notch.
In the future, the na “Zhong Pan’er” will bring people to think of Yao Guhuai.
In contrast, Ouyang Yushan has not taken any disciples for many years now.
And those disciples he took in the past have already reached their limits in terms of achievents.
As ti goes on, Yao Guhuai’s prestige is sure to overtake Ouyang Yushan’s.
With this thought, he felt even more elated.
He couldn’t wait to see that day co.
“Mr. Yao, congratulations.”
At that mont, Ouyang Yushan also ca over and offered his congratulations.
With his disciple performing so well, Yao Guhuai suddenly felt more confident in facing Ouyang Yushan, “Mr. Ouyang’s young junior, he seems to be performing quite well too, isn’t he?”
His words sounded like a complint on the surface.
But all the seasoned appraisers in attendance picked up on the underlying ssage.
Tang Feng had indeed perford very well, but he only managed to get a perfect score in the junior assessnt for ceramics.
Such a result might have been extraordinary in previous assessnts.
However, with the ergence of a prodigy like Zhong Pan’er, who breezed through the junior assessnts in all four categories in one go, a single category’s perfect score didn’t seem so impressive.
The implication in Yao Guhuai’s words was more like an affront to Ouyang Yushan.
Your people might be impressive, Ouyang Yushan, but my disciple is even more so. Don’t expect to keep acting superior in front of .
Ouyang Yushan was no fool and clearly understood the hidden aning in Yao Guhuai’s words.
“Hahaha, Tang Feng perford fairly well, but he’s still too young. Who can say what the future holds?”
“How many initially impressive geniuses end up indistinguishable from the ordinary? We must wait and see as we go along.”
Although it seed he was talking about Tang Feng, everyone could tell he was seizing the opportunity to ridicule Yao Guhuai, telling him not to be too pleased with himself too soon.
The two powerful figures in the Zhonghai Antique Circle managed to add a strong undercurrent to their seemingly jovial conversation.
The other appraisers, anxious, began to step back, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire.
Yao Guhuai, having hit a soft spot, wanted to say sothing to regain the upper hand.
But Ouyang Yushan didn’t give him another chance and returned to his seat.
Yao Guhuai, unable to vent his anger, silently seethed.
Hmph, old fool, enjoy your arrogance a little longer; soon, you’ll see what a true gap looks like.
Zhong Pan’er is not only participating in the junior assessnt but will also attempt the interdiate level.
As long as she successfully obtains the qualification of an interdiate appraiser, watching Ouyang Yushan’s face will be most entertaining.
The more he thought about it, the more pleased he was, growing impatient for this mont to arrive.
Zhong Pan’er stood in the center of the stadium like a proud swan, basking in the cheers of the competitors and the audience.
She had waited for this mont for a long ti, and today she finally got her wish.
Clearing all categories at once might as well be unprecedented in the history of appraiser assessnts, right?
Although there are many appraisers proficient in all categories, most have mastered one before branching out into others.
Clearing all categories simultaneously, as she did, is indeed an extrely rare occurrence.
She enjoyed the sensation of being the center of attention for a while, then quickly started looking for Tang Feng.
She was eager to see his expression after her success in clearing all categories.
Soon, she found Tang Feng in a corner.
The guy was sitting there playing with his mobile phone, completely uninterested in what was happening around him.
She was instantly irritated and walked briskly towards him.
“Hey, playing gas during an assessnt, aren’t you being a bit too disrespectful?”
As she got closer, she realized he was actually playing mobile gas, which made her even angrier.
She usually devoted all her ti to studying antiques and had no ti for leisure.
This guy, however, seed to make ti for gas even during an assessnt.
As if he hadn’t taken this assessnt seriously at all.
