C168 It's a Scam
The old man wore a smile on his face. He did not discuss the matter of helping them out of the predicament, nor did he mention the matter of heavy gratitude. He only said that his name was Ding Chengbin, and that Faang Yang should have a good competition.
Faang Yang thanked him again, then turned around and walked to the competition venue. At this moment, there were still five people left, including him and Gu Xiaosong. However, there were thousands of Raw Ores placed in front of the five people.
The quality of this one thousand Raw Ore was clearly much better than the previous ones. At the very least, when Faang Yang swept his gaze over it, he did not see anything that could not be found in the raw materials.
As for whether they would fall or rise after cutting them open, that would depend on the market price of this batch of Raw Ore. However, Faang Yang estimated that it was only high and not low. Even the Low Grade Spirit Stone fragments would be considered to have fallen.
"These one thousand Raw Ores were all mined from the Kunlun Mountain. It contained exquisite details. Apart from the Spirit Stone, there were also magical treasures, Medicine Pill, and other treasures. The five of you need to pick out the best 3 pieces within 10 minutes. After cutting them open, you will auction them on the spot. The person with the highest bid will win. Reward: one Marrow Washing Pill." The new judge said, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at Faang Yang. He was afraid that ___ would cause more trouble and cause more trouble.
Faang Yang rolled his eyes, looking shy. In his heart, he thought that his brother was a kind person. He would only transform into a devil when he was bullied.
The competition had officially begun. This time, it was not limited to the positions. Instead, the five of them walked around casually. Very soon, everyone found a position and started to identify the piece of uncut material that they admired.
Ten minutes was not much time, but it was more than enough. The remaining five people could be said to be experts. Of course, Faang Yang and Gu Xiaosong were experts among experts.
Faang Yang wasn't in a hurry. He first used the Golden Eye to sweep across the entire venue. Very quickly, he chose the three uncut stones that he liked.
At this time, a cry of surprise sounded by his ear. Faang Yang turned his head and saw that it was Gu Xiaosong who had used his spiritual energy again. Under the vision of the Golden Eye, his body was emitting a blue light of spiritual energy from top to bottom. Especially his right hand, which seemed to be burning with blue flames.
In other people's eyes, the Gu family's Stone Authenticating Technique was precise and mysterious. However, in Faang Yang's eyes, the secret that was hidden was useless.
A faint trace of spiritual energy was released from the tip of Gu Xiaosong's right hand. He followed a special trajectory. Outside the Raw Ore, a pattern was formed. Then, the spirit energy followed the pattern and penetrated into the interior of the Raw Ore.
Rather than penetrating, it was more like sound waves. It was like a radar, sending the information of the item back through the spiritual energy.
"Because different levels of Spirit Stone can transmit different forms of sound waves. Different items will also correspondingly form different waves. We can distinguish what is contained within according to the information in the waves. They would be able to determine what kind of treasure it was based on the strength and experience of the feedback. So that's how it is!" Faang Yang seemed to be deep in thought as he followed the example in his heart.
He then placed his hand on a Raw Ore and imitated Gu Xiaosong's stone identification method according to what he saw under the Golden Eye.
This was a Raw Ore with a Low Grade Spirit Stone. Faang Yang had already used the Golden Eye to look at it in advance. He placed his hand on the Raw Gemstone and the Fate's Dantian released spirit energy. In an instant, a message was sent back.
He placed his hand on the other Raw Gemstone and began testing it out. As the number of experiments increased, his eyes also became brighter and brighter. Finally, with a smile on his face, he completely decrypted the Gu family's Stone Authenticating Technique.
"The Golden Eye has been upgraded once again. It can actually see the trajectory of the Spirit Fate. Doesn't that mean that I can secretly learn other people's martial arts!?" When he thought of this, Fang Yang was greatly alarmed. He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
What Faang Yang lacked the most right now was all kinds of martial arts. He had all the spiritual energy in his body, but he did not have any moves. Every time, he would throw a random punch on the stage. It would be easy to deal with a little prick. If he was an expert, then he wouldn't be able to do it.
As for the Eight-image Strange Book, that was a big move. It was used to trick people when they were caught off guard. They definitely could not use their own skills to deal with it.
Faang Yang was having fun on the stage. Gu Xiaoming, who was standing below the stage, turned pale with fright. He stared at Faang Yang, wondering why this guy's Stone Authenticating Technique was so similar to my Gu family's Stone Authenticating Technique!
Ten minutes passed very quickly. Gu Xiaosong finished his selection on time. He raised his head and was stunned. He found that Faang Yang was actually looking at him. He subconsciously threw himself into danger, but the latter turned his head away. "What the hell is this kid doing?"
"It's over. He doesn't think I'm peeking at him. He thinks I'm interested in him too, right?" Faang Yang did not know what to say, but it was already too late to regret. Gu Xiaosong's voice had already sounded. "Faang Yang!"
"Ah! You have chosen the raw materials!" Faang Yang could only raise his head and speak to him with an awkward expression.
Gu Xiaosong nodded and intimately patted Faang Yang's shoulder. He smiled and said, "Thank you for letting me win a large sum of money. I will treat you to a meal later!"
"No need to thank me. We are all friends. Ah, no, no. I mean, there is no need to eat!" Faang Yang wanted to slap himself in his heart. How could he say that he was friends with Gu Xiaosong? What if this guy pestered him?
Gu Xiaosong wanted to say something again, but was interrupted by the referee. Everyone had chosen the Raw Ore and was ready to cut the stone.
The Stone Cutting Master went on stage one after another, cutting the raw materials that they had chosen one by one. This time, their actions were not as rude as before. They were careful, afraid that they would cut the treasure inside.
After more than two hours, all the Raw Ore were cut open. The items inside were placed in front of everyone, and they were being auctioned off one by one.
Looking around, only Faang Yang and Gu Xiaosong could be compared. The latter was half a Middle Grade Spirit Stone, an unknown Medicine Pill, and a fist manual.
Faang Yang was a complete Middle Grade Spirit Stone, an unknown Medicine Pill, and a colorful egg.
"A complete Middle Grade Spirit Stone, Faang Yang's ability to appraise stones is simply heaven defying!" Ji Ping said in a low voice. His eyes were filled with gratification, as if he had known Faang Yang for many years. However, he knew nothing about Faang Yang, and could even be said to be unfamiliar with him.
Wang Qiang shook his head. It was not necessarily true. He said in a low voice, "Faang Yang urgently needs the Marrow Washing Pill. Otherwise, no matter how powerful his Stone Authenticating Technique is, it will not work. After all, it's a small path. Only when the impurities are removed by the Marrow Washing Pill will he be able to return to the Fang family. Soong Cheng already knew Faang Yang's identity. He was most likely going to do something here."
" You're saying that he will deliberately raise the price of Gu Xiaosong's transaction? He won't do such a despicable thing, right?" Ji Ping said.
Before he could finish his words, he heard an exclamation from the crowd. It was Soong Cheng who had bought half of Gu Xiaosong's Middle Grade Spirit Stone at a price three times higher than the market price. It had far exceeded the price of Faang Yang's complete Middle Grade Spirit Stone.
"It just so happens that I, Soong Cheng, need half of the Middle Grade Spirit Stone to merge into my new sword. Xiao Song has solved my biggest problem!" Soong Cheng said with a laugh. His eyes swept across Faang Yang's body with a cunning look on his face.
