The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 89 - Bidding For The Heaven's Carpet Painting



After a couple of minutes, the effects of the Heaven's Carpet gradually disappeared and the stick figure also came back to the painting. But before it, he looked at those bunch of masters as he slashed his 'sword' majestically and imposingly in the air as if he was giving warning to those who belittled him!

Everyone present could not find what to say. This painting was indeed something that greatly gave them a fright that their hearts almost got out of their chests! A genuine Heaven's Carpet appeared in this competition!

After a long silence, finally, one by one caught their composure back.

"Heavens! It is really a Heaven's Carpet Painting!"

"Yes. With that red long carpet that appeared that came from the Heavens, it is no wonder a Heaven's Carpet"

A Master Painter among the crowd could not help but be in tears as he exclaimed, "I never thought that I will ever see a Heaven's Carpet Painting in this lifetime! My journey here from afar is not wasted at all! I greatly benefited from this, actually!"

His old pal consoled him, "Haha! Brother Mua, you are right. It seems that my life did not go into waste at all. I'm very happy that I went here. If not, I might have to regret this until I die."

The audience went into an uproar! Various discussions could be heard! Although in this kind of painting, noises were strictly prohibited since this was a formal event, with this kind of painting appearing out of the blue caught everyone off guard and did not mind if everyone noised about it!

Hua Hengyun's expression darkened, "Impossible.. Who is this man?"

At first, he was really not putting Jin Rou in his eyes because he thought that the win was already in the bag. But this reality had slapped him hard that it made his face swollen!

The same happenings with the Museum Masters and Zilang Mu who criticized the painting in such a degree! It was still okay for the other Museum Masters who chose not to say anything and chose to be neutral. But with Master Xiaomei and Master Dongsha and Master Xuo Hu who even treated this painting as an insult for them? They could only lower their heads and grit their teeth in embarrassment. Everyone was a witness with this, no matter what they reason, it was still the same outcome.

They treated the painting as a crap.

But in a logical and fair way of thinking, they could not be blamed for their reactions and words, because after all, in the common sense of these people, a rushed painting with a stick figure in it was really a ridiculous one that anyone ignorant about it would find this a piece of garbage. The painting had really no traces at all that it was painted with all might. All they could sense was the rushed aspect and the emotionless painting inside.

Who could blame them for this? None. However, it was really a mistake of them to judge the painting without observing first for a long while like the other two masters.

Seeing that the masters were having a hard time, Shao Gan stepped up and asked Jin Rou, "Little Friend, you have an amazing talent in painting."

Jin Rou accepted the praise and smiled, "I am just a layman in this path so please don't overpraise me."

"Haha!" Shao Gan laughed, "If you are a layman, then everyone who is here, was an outsider then?"

Zilang Mu gave his master a glance with a mixed expressions, this evaluation was so high that even him as the only disciple had not yet received!

Jin Rou only smiled upon hearing this and did not respond.

Seeing this, Shao Gan could not help but smile as well, "Alright. In behalf of the Museum Masters with me here, I will hereby announce the winner. Ah no, the winner is already obvious as a crystal sea, right?"

The masters did not object about this and just nodded. If Jin Rou could not be the winner of this competition, then who will?

And thus, Shao Gan officially announced that Jin Rou was the champion of this competition! Following by Hua Hengyun as the second and Dunggo Shi as the third.

Hua Hengyun did not say a word and just left the stadium quietly. While Dunggo Shi stole a glance first to Jin Rou before leaving as well. Although he wanted to approach him, he was greatly ashamed as he underestimated Jin Rou that almost it could not be putted in his eyes. He basically thought that his greatest rival would always be Hua Hengyun. Never did he expect it that a dark horse would appear out of nowhere and seize the first place! He was feeling mixed emotions right now, he was feeling dejected since he was greatly floored by Hua Hengyun, but at the same time, he was feeling a bit elated as if a huge burden suddenly vanished when he saw that Hua Hengyun did not win the competition.

"At the very least, none of us win. This is a good and favorable result as well." Dunggo Shi mumbled to himself as he quietly walked away without being noticed by anyone.

"You invited such a genius this time, Prince Yuan. Why did you not tell me any sooner? This man is such a genius that could not even be compared to us oldies here! If we were to be compared, we will just ashame ourselves!" Master Qu Peng, one of the Museum Masters said.

"Haha!" Yuan Gu could only laugh this time. Even I did not know it! Alright?

Shao Gan did not mind those two talking and faced Jin Rou who was about to walk off the stage along with Miyu and said, "Little Friend, Name your price."

Jin Rou was startled as he heard this, "Ah?"

Shao Gan smiled and said, "I am planning to buy your painting. So name your price."

"Hey hey hey! Mentor Shao, what is the meaning of this?" Master Dongsha who was currently quiet all this time intervened and said, "His painting should belong to the our museum, so we should buy it!" Even he was embarrassed, he could not let the painting to be in the hands of others!

"What are you saying, Museum Masters?" Shao Gan chuckled, "You already have tons of paintings displayed. So will you give me face and give this opportunity to me?"

"Absolutely not!" The masters disagreed hurriedly, "You can buy anything that our museum possessed as long as it is not this one! You are a Mentor, not a Master Painter!"

"Hahahaha!" Shao Gan laughed heartily, "Alright then. Why don't we just bid?"

"Alright! We bid 5 million!"

"Six million!"

"Nine million!"

"Ten million!"

"Mentor Shao is not backing out, huh? Alright 30 million!"

Hearing this astronomical amount that the museum bid, everyone almost fainted!

F-ck! This amount was already so big!

"Hoho, only 30 million? 50 million!"

"Mentor Shao.. You!" The masters were a bit displeased.

"What, you? This painting should be mine. Alright?" Shao Gan chuckled.

Jin Rou could only smile wryly upon this sight. I have not even gave my permission to sell this but they were already bidding for it. Hay.. forget it. It is just a painting anyway.

If any masters could hear this, they will surely vomit blood from extreme exasperation from this lad! Only a painting anyway?

In the end, Shao Gan had won the painting for 70 million diamonds. That's right. An astronomical 70 million diamonds!

Outside of an unknown cave with various ancient carvings, There was an old man looking at a distance with his bloodshot eyes. His aura was so dark that it would creep out anyone who see him. This was Yao Lao, the demon that was sealed within since ancient times.

He licked his upper lip in malicious and pervertly manner as he said, "There's a lot of life forces out there. Haha! It seemed that I will be having a great feast this time."

He flew towards the direction where the Museum of Hundred Arts was located!
