Chapter 1537: Chapter 1521: The Yangtze River’s Waves Push Forward

Professor Zhuang then rembered that when he was coming downstairs, this Professor Qian had called out to him about identifying so expert certification, and he couldn’t help but pause and laugh:

"Old Qian, what was that about a forged expert certification you were talking about earlier?"

Professor Qian was already unsteady now, realizing that he might have made a big mistake. This little girl in front of him was quite familiar with Zhuang Xiangyang, apparently not just an ordinary figure in the antique circle.

Especially since Zhuang Xiangyang had just ntioned soone called Master Gu and Chief Lu. He didn’t know who Master Gu was, but everyone understood whom Chief Lu referred to.

Professor Qian was a bit uneasy, cold sweat appearing on his forehead. Hearing Zhuang Xiangyang asking him about this, he didn’t dare tell the truth, forcing an unnatural smile, glancing awkwardly at Huo Sining, stamring, "No, nothing, I made a mistake."

Professor Qian wanted to move past this, but Huo Sining wasn’t inclined to let it go so easily. She looked at Professor Qian with a half-smile, explaining to Zhuang Xiangyang:

"Here’s the thing, I had a disagreent with Professor Qian about the origin of this ancient sword. I expressed my opinion, but Professor Qian felt that I was too young and not qualified to appraise antiques."

"To prove that I do have the ability to appraise, I presented my expert certification from the Forbidden City Museum. However, Professor Qian didn’t recognize it and was about to call the museum to verify it."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Xiangyang couldn’t help but laugh heartily: "Such a young museum expert is indeed rare. It’s normal for people to be skeptical. Back then, I told Elder Huang that it wasn’t appropriate to give you this certification. Even if they issued it to you, it’s of no use to you. You see, I was right, wasn’t I? Take this certification outside, and no one believes it’s real, right?"

Huo Sining responded with a helpless smile: "I can’t be blad for that. This certification was given to

as compensation from you old folks when you forced

to be that darn team leader. I didn’t force you to issue it to !"

Seeing Huo Sining bring up past events, Zhuang Xiangyang also showed so discomfort, chuckling awkwardly, but his smile faded as he turned to look at Professor Qian.

"Old Qian, there’s no need for you to make that verification call. Let

introduce her to you. This young lady is Zhou Shitao’s closed-door disciple, nad Huo Sining. She participated as a guest on ’Folk Treasure Appraisal’ with

last year. Don’t let her age fool you; her skills are no less than mine."

"Recently, she led the Huaxia team to the finals in the New York International Treasure Appraisal Conference and even won the championship."

"Her certification was organized jointly by myself and Director Huang. After deliberation among us old folks, it was personally handed over to her. This isn’t fake; the official seal is stamped right there."

Hearing Zhuang Xiangyang’s introduction, Professor Qian’s face turned from green to white. The fact that Huo Sining’s expert certification was real wasn’t the biggest shock to him; what terrified him was hearing that Huo Sining was Zhou Shitao’s closed-door disciple.

There is only one person in the treasure appraisal circle revered as the Mount Tai of the field, and that’s Zhou Shitao. His reputation and authority in the antique world are imnse, holding unrivaled respect and prowess; the entire treasure appraisal circle looks up to him.

This little girl in front of him was actually Zhou Shitao’s disciple, and unfortunately, he had offended her, even having the audacity to claim he would discipline her on behalf of her ntor. Cold sweat was trickling down Professor Qian’s forehead. Just thinking about what he’d said earlier, he felt he was in deep trouble.

Over there, Mr. Feng and Old Zheng were also taken aback, staring at Huo Sining. They didn’t belong to the appraisal circle, so they didn’t know who Zhou Shitao was. However, they had closely followed the buzz surrounding the recent New York International Treasure Appraisal Conference. By all accounts, it was the most significant event in the antique world in recent years, and many antique enthusiasts had followed the live broadcast to so degree.

However, when participating in the competition, Huo Sining had been in disguise, and now her simple, fresh appearance was quite different. Moreover, everyone wasn’t originally acquainted with her, so no one in the shop, including those assistants and Mr. Feng, Old Zheng, had recognized Huo Sining’s identity.

Looking at this seemingly ordinary young girl now, combined with previous dostic and international news reports, everyone present couldn’t help but click their tongues in admiration. This girl, daring to charge headlong into New York with the national team and forge through, was exactly as legendary—a youth of nearly uncanny talent.

Seeing her youthful, almost high-school-student-like appearance, anyone would assu she was a student if she were walking on the street. How many people her age truly understand antiques? Let alone becoming an expert at the Forbidden City.

Given Huo Sining’s age, being able to achieve such results ans her future is boundless. It’s no wonder she was neither arrogant nor yielding when facing Professor Qian, unwilling to back down even a little bit. With her skill and level, it’s entirely reasonable for her to stand her ground on her views.

"As the Yangtze River waves push forward, this girl Huo is extraordinary, out of this world. Not an ordinary person can match her. Old Qian, don’t take it to heart too much. This girl has been giving us old guys a hard ti these past two years; you’re not the first."

Zhuang Xiangyang, seeing Professor Qian looking as if attending a funeral, felt so sympathy and couldn’t help but offer a few comforting words. His gaze fell on the ancient sword over which the two had disagreed: "Is this the ancient sword you both were debating?"

Huo Sining nodded and handed the sword to Zhuang Xiangyang: "Professor Qian believes this is Lu Junyi’s sword, but I think the ancient jade was added later."

Zhuang Xiangyang took the ancient sword, saying, "Let

take a look first."

Since the contention lay in the sword poml, the sword body was secondary. After hearing Huo Sining’s explanation, Zhuang Xiangyang nodded slightly, his eyes focusing on the sword poml, observing carefully. He first nodded, then gently shook his head.

The eyes of everyone present were focused on Zhuang Xiangyang, wanting to know how this expert of the Forbidden City would evaluate this ancient sword, guessing whether Huo Sining’s judgnt was correct or if Professor Qian’s viewpoint was more accurate.

Professor Qian also felt a bit nervous. Earlier, he was full of confidence, but now, knowing the little girl’s expert certification was genuine, he felt shaken, no longer as confident in his own conclusions.
