Otherworldly Carver

Chapter 46 Accept the challenge

Everyone in the room looked solemn, as if Lan Xi had said something extraordinary.Ye Ling was puzzled, and looked up at Wen Yu.

Wen Yu also frowned at this moment, holding Ye Ling's hand tightly.

The president, Su Hua, was the first to recover, with a sneer in his heart, he looked at Lan Xi and asked, "Boy of the Lan family, you should think about it."

Lan Xi pouted her head and looked at Ye Ling, her eyes seemed to burst into flames, and she said, "I've made up my mind."

The temperature in the room became much colder in an instant, Tongxi's face was like ice, and he looked at Lanxi coldly.

Lan Xi shuddered, glanced at Tong Xi, and suddenly smiled mockingly.Just listen to him say: "What are you staring at me for? I'm helping you."

Tong Xi shook his head in disapproval, and was about to speak, but Wen Yu said, "Ye Ling hasn't joined the Carver Association, so he doesn't have to accept Lan Xi's challenge."

Everyone in the room looked at Wen Yu again.

"The internal rules of sculptors regulate sculptors. If Ye Ling is not a sculptor, he can naturally not accept the challenge." Lan Xi said coldly, "But if this is the case, the Carver Association should issue an announcement to prohibit Ye Ling from being a fake sculptor." Defrauded in the name of him, disqualify him from carving emeralds!"

After Lan Xi finished speaking, everyone was taken aback again.Su Hua raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that the boy from the Lan family seemed to be serious.

"Lan Xi! Don't mess around!" Pang Diao became angry, looked at Lan Xi and said, "He hasn't joined the Carver Association yet, you are going to challenge him and bet on the dignity of the carver. Why? But He's a newcomer, so what?"

"As for!" Lan Xi finished, thought for a while, looked at Ye Ling and said, "Regardless of his strength, whether he is a senior engraver or not, his attitude towards engraving is not worthy of being a engraver! I heard that you carve scraps, scraps, scattered jadeite beads, and rubbish that even apprentices look down on! That’s all, you actually sell your own works privately with a clearly marked price. What an insult to the name of the engraver!"

This passage is not only Lanxi's excuse, but also Lanxi's sincerity.He was educated by the sculptors of the big family since he was a child, so he naturally has the same views on the carving industry as Pang Diao.But these words made Lanxi feel sour.How could he not be angry that such a sculptor without dignity might be far superior to him?

No matter for Wen Yu or for herself, Lan Xi will never back down!

These words were filled with righteous indignation, which aroused the resonance of many sub-orc carvers in the room, and several high-level carvers immediately echoed.Ye Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at them. There was no shame on his face. He lowered his head and thought for a while, but instead smiled.

"Wait a minute." Ye Ling asked, "If I don't participate in this challenge, what is the worst result?"

The person Ye Ling asked was Su Hua, Su Hua rolled his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Just like what Lan Xi said, you have caused public outrage, and I have no other choice but to disqualify you from carving jadeite." .”

"Okay." Remembering what Wen Yu said to him, Ye Ling frowned slightly and asked, "What if you accept the challenge?"

"If you win, you don't have to accept the recruitment of the Sculptor's Association. The Sculptor's Association will not ask you what you like to do." Su Hua had a smirk on his face and said with a chill, "But if you lose, It will still disqualify you from carving jadeite."

"In this way, I have no choice but to accept Lan Xi's challenge." The expression on Ye Ling's face became serious, he turned to look at Wen Yu, and asked softly, "Do you think I will?" win?"

"Definitely." Wen Yu didn't hesitate.

"Okay." After hearing this, Ye Ling looked at Lan Xi with a smile and said, "I accept your challenge!"

Lan Xi's face suddenly became extremely pale, it was for no other reason than Wen Yu's attitude hurt him just now.Ye Ling did it on purpose to show him, it was on purpose!

This hateful Ye Ling, this sub-orc man who appeared out of nowhere!Lan Xi gritted his teeth and thought, he must win, he must win!

The deal is done, Su Hua is still holding it on his face, but he is sneering in his heart.He looked at the angry Lan Xi, the displeased Pang Diao, and the calm Ye Ling, and shook his head slightly.

Young people are young people, and they really can't hold their breath.

Su Hua agreed to Lanxi's proposal after careful consideration.

As the president of the Sculptors Association, Su Hua has inextricable connections with the chairman in charge of jadeite carvings and jadeite wool market operations—that is, Afeng's father.This is a lucrative business, and controlling the jadeite trading market is equivalent to controlling all the interests.Su Hua is not as stupid as Wan Peng. His mind is full of sculpting and sculpting. If he doesn't earn money, isn't it a waste of power in his hands?

So the last sentence of Lanxi's words that moved him the most - selling his own carvings privately.

The older he got, the more Su Hua felt that the so-called sculptor's self-esteem was a lie, and it was nothing more than to better control those sculptors.However, if the works of a senior engraver are allowed to flow into the market at will—this engraver is not picky about the quality of jadeite, it will definitely have an impact on the jadeite carving market.

Su Hua will not let this happen.Even if Ye Ling can only have a small impact on his interests, he will make an example and put an end to this kind of behavior that wants to get out of the control of the Carver Association.So he would sacrifice Ye Ling, unless he figured it out sometime and cried and begged to join the Carver Association.

Before the competition started, Ye Ling had already lost.

However, the two parties in the competition were completely unaware of this matter. Ye Ling asked: "What subject matter, how many days is the limit? Tell me."

Lan Xi knew in his heart that it would be more beneficial for him to decide the content of the test, but he hated Ye Ling's condescending attitude.Pursing her lips, Lan Xi said, "Ten days are the limit for carving ornaments!"

ornaments?The people in the room looked at Lanxi again.

We all know that Lanxi is attacking the fifth-level engraver. If he can reach the fifth level at his age, it is already a rare achievement.But the fifth-level engraver has just reached the primary standard for engraving ornaments, and Lan Xi is really bold to use this as a test object.

What's more, the time limit for carving is only ten days.

Is this to compete with him in an upright manner?Ye Ling had a new understanding of Lan Xi, and he replied with a light smile, "Okay."

"Since it's decided, I'll see you at the Carver Association in ten days." Lan Xi said coldly, "Don't run away when the time comes."

Looking at her rival in love leisurely, Ye Ling replied: "No."

Lan Xi took one last look at Wen Yu, and Wen Yu looked at him with a calm expression, without any fluctuations.Looking away disappointed, Lan Xi walked out slowly.

Su Hua hooked his lips, and went out with his hands behind his back, and the other sculptors and followers also left one by one, until only Pang Diao and Tongxi were left.

Tongxi stared at Ye Ling: "I believe you will win."

Ye Ling smiled and said, "I will."

Pang Diao glanced at Wen Yu, frowned and said, "How long are you going to drag him?"

"This has nothing to do with you." Wen Yu had a gentle smile on his face.

"Father, please don't interfere, I will pursue Ye Ling by myself." Tongxi looked at Ye Ling and said.

"Okay." Pang Diao had confidence in his son, nodded and said, "Let's go."

Tongxi took one last look at Ye Ling: "We will meet again."

After all, Tong Xi followed Pang Diao and walked out of Wen's house.

Seeing that they had all left, Ye Ling and Wen Yu glanced at each other, both heaved a sigh of relief, and sat down on the sofa together.

"Ye Ling, you really don't plan to join the Carver Association?" Wen Ran was silent for a long time, and he couldn't help asking when everyone left.

"If you don't join, I won't join. I still want to open a shop with you!" Ye Ling laughed.

"What about me?" Wen Ran followed Ye Ling's lead and asked.

"It's called 'Aran's shop'!" Ye Ling smiled and comforted Wen Ran, "Don't worry, I will win."

"If it was you, I believe you will win." After Wen Ran finished speaking, he suddenly remembered an important question, "Where can I get the carved jadeite?"

"Tomorrow, I'll take Ye Ling to the gambling quarry." Wen Yu thought for a while and said, "I sold 60 of the carvings last time, and some of the income from the recent carvings. It's enough to buy a piece of carving material."

Hearing that he was going to the quarry again, Ye Ling was also a little ready to move, he nodded and said: "Okay..."

……

blue home.

Lan Xi sat there, waiting for the next big storm.But now that the deal is done, even if his brother kills him, he will have to compete with Ye Ling.

But unexpectedly, Lan Baker was not angry.

Lan Baking just looked at Lan Xi quietly, with a half-smile, but after a while, he looked away, and shouted to his side: "Mosi."

Yes, today, Mo Si, the orc who climbed up to the Lan family as the King of Gambling Stones, is also there.He had been sitting opposite Lan Xi, looking at Lan Xi affectionately, and turned his face away when he heard Lan Baking calling him.

"You've also heard about today's events. Who do you think will win?" Lan Baking narrowed his slender and crystal clear eyes and looked at Mosi and asked.

Obviously Lan Ba ​​was smiling, but Mo Si couldn't help shivering.Different from Tongxi's utter strength crushing, the aura around Lan Bei is indescribably dangerous, which always makes people feel involuntarily afraid.

"Of course it's Lan Xi!" Mosi said hastily, "Lan Xi is so good, he can easily deal with an unidentified sub-orc man. Don't worry, Patriarch, it's absolutely fine!"

"Oh? It's rare that you have such confidence in Lanxi." Lan Baking glanced at Lanxi, not letting go of the trace of disgust that unconsciously appeared on Lanxi's face.

"Look at what you said." Moss smiled carefully, looked greedily at Lanxi's delicate and beautiful face, licked his lips and said, "Lanxi is the best among young sculptors, bar none .”

Idiot... Lan Baking thought this in his heart, but smiled more gently on his face.He said softly: "You're right to think so. No one is better than Lan Xi from the Lan family. But if you want to win, you still need to work harder."

Lan Xi suddenly felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but asked: "What do you want to do?"

"You seem to be thinking too much, Lan Xi." Lan Baker laughed, "All you have to do is to prepare seriously for the competition. Tomorrow I will arrange for Moth to gamble in the quarry, and I must give you a piece that satisfies you. Emerald, just rest assured."

Nodding her head, Lanxi didn't want to stay here anymore, said "I'm going to the workshop", got up and left.

After Lan Xi left, Lan Ba ​​smiled and hugged Mo Si's shoulders, and whispered a few words in Mo Si's ear.A look of sudden realization appeared on Mo Si's face, and he nodded slightly.
