Chapter 339: 【339】Can geniuses do whatever they want?_1
Facing a more difficult assessnt, Zhong Pan’er also adopted a more level-headed approach.
No longer racing against Tang Feng, she stopped before each calligraphy and painting for a long ti, not overlooking any detail.
Tang Feng, on the other hand, continued to do as he pleased, leisurely strolling through the calligraphy and painting area as if he was holding the reins of a horse.
Looking at him, he didn’t seem to be there for the assessnt, but rather appeared to be out for a stroll.
Tang Feng had to admit that the difficulty of this advanced assessnt indeed was quite twisted.
He tried to observe the calligraphy and paintings without using the system.
But he couldn’t discern any clues.
At that mont, he couldn’t help but feel ashad of his previous self-satisfaction.
After all, others relied on their diligence and study over ti to achieve their strength today.
Even Zhong Pan’er shone in today’s assessnt through her own talent and effort.
Whereas he had rely basked in the light of the system.
If he hadn’t had the system, he would have been lucky to even pass the basic assessnt.
Once he had thought things through, he imdiately dismissed the impatience in his heart and began to watch seriously.
After Zhong Pan’er finished looking at a landscape painting, she incidentally noticed that this fellow was actually watching the paintings seriously and felt greatly surprised.
In the previous assessnts, this guy had always appeared indifferent.
Now, he seed to have started observing in earnest.
She even thought she was hallucinating.
However, before she could revise her opinion of Tang Feng, he relapsed into his old ways and began to saunter through the calligraphy and painting area with his hands clasped behind his back.
“Hmph, a leopard can’t change its spots,” she muttered darkly to herself, too lazy to pay him any more attention, and continued to look down at the paintings.
Tang Feng wasn’t that he didn’t want to concentrate on the paintings, but rather… he truly didn’t understand them.
From the ti he was exposed to antiques until now, it had only been a little over a month.
What could one learn in just over a month?
Without the assistance of the system, his appraisal abilities were only on par with a junior appraiser.
Asking a junior appraiser to identify forgeries of this caliber was asking too much.
So he didn’t bother wasting any more energy and activated the scanning system instead.
The information about the paintings instantly appeared in his mind.
To avoid seeming too shocking, he wandered around the assessnt area for a while longer.
After checking the ti, about fifteen minutes had passed.
Only then did he write down his answers on the form and hand it to the responsible person.
The responsible person took the form and still seed sowhat incredulous.
No one knew better than him how difficult the questions in the advanced assessnt area were.
In previous advanced assessnts, examinees would repeatedly check their answers, waiting until the end of the exam ti to submit their papers.
No one had ever submitted early before.
Tang Feng’s act was truly unprecedented.
Can geniuses really do as they please?
He glanced at Tang Feng’s paper and, not being able to make heads or tails of it himself, could only wait for the judges to score it.
Tang Feng’s actions also attracted the attention of the contestants, audience, and judges present.
Although submitting early was already his norm.
No one thought that he would dare to submit early in an advanced assessnt.
Was it because the questions were too hard and he gave up, or did he already have a clear grasp of the answers?
The buzz of discussion at the venue was continuous and unending.
Tang Feng ignored it, finding a shady place to sit.
He had just sat down when a ssage from Qin Yanan ca through, “Why did you submit early again? This is an advanced assessnt, you know.”
The ssage was followed by several “surprised” emojis.
This was the first ti she had inquired about his situation since the start of today’s assessnt, indicating how astonished she was this ti.
Tang Feng just smiled lightly and replied with “Everything is under control.”
After a while, Qin Yanan’s ssage ca back, with only three dots.
Obviously, she was rendered speechless by his behavior.
Tang Feng couldn’t be bothered to explain, continuing to swipe his phone.
The assessnt ti quickly ended, and the examinees’ papers were imdiately sent to the judges’ panel.
“How are you feeling about this one?” Tang Feng asked with a smile as he saw Zhong Pan’er approaching with a dejected expression.
“Of course.” Zhong Pan’er t his slightly mocking gaze and regained her fighting spirit.
“Well, you are quite amazing. I have absolutely no confidence this ti,” Tang Feng sighed helplessly, his sigh laden with a deep sense of powerlessness.
Zhong Pan’er was taken aback for a mont—it was the first ti she had heard the words “no confidence” from Tang Feng’s mouth.
This guy had always appeared very confident before, to the point of being sowhat arrogant.
She never expected him to have such a humble mont.
“If you’re not certain, why did you turn in your paper early?” Zhong Pan’er’s tone softened, as they could still sit down and have a chat if he wasn’t so aggressive.
“Because I don’t understand, all those forgeries are too convincing, I looked through them all and they seed like genuine articles to ,” Tang Feng said with an open and honest expression.
“So I didn’t want to waste any more ti and just filled in so answers randomly.”
Zhong Pan’er felt a bit better, “Indeed, the advanced assessnt is really difficult, even a genius like isn’t a hundred percent sure.”
“So, how many points do you think you got this ti?”
“If I can achieve 80 points and barely pass the assessnt, I’ll be quite satisfied.”
As she said this, her confidence returned.
She felt that with her abilities, even if she couldn’t score a perfect mark, getting 80 points shouldn’t be a problem.
“Then you really are amazing. Becoming an advanced appraiser in your twenties, you truly deserve the title of the number one genius in the Zhonghai Antique Circle,” Tang Feng sincerely complinted her with flattery.
Zhong Pan’er imdiately felt elated by his flattery, feeling that the title of “number one genius” was within easy reach.
At that mont, the results were announced.
The responsible person carrying a stack of score sheets walked back to the assessnt area.
Several candidates stood up, ready to face the verdict of fate.
“Cheng Zhun, advanced assessnt for calligraphy and painting score: 30 points, not qualified!”
“Ding Yin, advanced assessnt for calligraphy and painting score: 60 points, not qualified!”
“Gao Yi, advanced assessnt for calligraphy and painting score: 40 points, not qualified!”
“Zhong Pan’er… advanced assessnt for calligraphy and painting score: 70 points, not qualified!”
“…”
