Chapter 178 [178] Is There Such a Monster in the World?

Not to mention Zhang Jicheng, even the audience couldn't stand it.

Regardless of whether the rule proposed by Zhang Jicheng favored his apprentice, since the two parties had already agreed in advance, there was no reason to regret it.

Qi Maocai saw that his apprentice was about to lose, and suddenly questioned the rules. It was completely cheating.

"Anyway, there is a problem with your rule. If you don't change it, then we won't compete."

Qi Maocai was completely like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and he continued to cheat to the end.

"Then how do you want to change it?" Zhang Jicheng suppressed his anger and asked angrily.

"It's very simple, just judge the winner by who chooses the more valuable object. According to this rule, the second game can only be considered a tie." Qi Maocai shamelessly proposed a modification.

Zhang Jicheng almost vomited blood in anger. It turned out that people who are shameless are invincible.

He would never agree to such a shameless request.

He was about to refuse.

But at this time, Tang Feng suddenly came over, "Master, since they think the rules are unfair, then follow their rules."

"Xiao Feng..." Zhang Jicheng was immediately anxious.

But seeing that his apprentice looked confident, he swallowed the rest of his words.

Tang Feng turned and looked at Qi Maocai, "I have no problem competing according to your rules, but I have a condition."

"What condition?" Qi Maocai stared at him with burning eyes.

"If you lose in the end, the three of you, the master and the apprentice, will walk along the antique street and shout a hundred times, 'Moxiangju Qi Maocai lost to Yayuan Zhang Jicheng, and lost with conviction', how about it? Do you dare?" Tang Feng had a faint smile on his face.

Qi Maocai did not agree immediately, but secretly weighed it in his heart.

The reason why he was willing to break the rules at the cost of his old face was because he was very confident in his apprentice Zhao Xingbo.

Compared with the two apprentices, Zhao Xingbo was more talented and had achieved greater success.

Especially in the identification of ceramics, his ability has far exceeded that of his master.

As long as Zhao Xingbo can win the third round with a crushing victory, then his risk of violating the rules is not a big deal.

"Okay, I agree. If you lose, your master will shout a hundred times in the antique street, 'Yayuan Zhang Jicheng lost to Moxiangju Qi Maocai, and lost with conviction', is that okay?"

With great confidence in his apprentice, Qi Maocai agreed.

Tang Feng's mouth curled up slightly, forming a beautiful arc, "I hope you can abide by the agreement this time and don't go back on your word again."

"This time we will each identify the items of our own apprentices, and announce the results in ten minutes."

Qi Maocai said this to Zhang Jicheng, and without waiting for his consent, he turned and walked towards the ceramic bowl that Zhao Xingbo chose.

Although Zhang Jicheng was very angry, since his apprentice had agreed, he had nothing to say, and turned to identify the third antique.

Although the audience sneered at Qi Maocai's behavior, they were still very happy to continue watching the fun.

"Who do you think will win the third game?"

"I think Tang Feng should win, right? Since he agreed to change the rules, he must be very confident in himself, right?"

"I don't think so. I think Qi Maocai and his team may win this game."

"What's the reason?"

"Qi Maocai is willing to sacrifice his reputation to help his apprentice win the third game, which shows that he has great confidence in this apprentice."

"I know this Zhao Xingbo. He is really accomplished in ceramic identification, even better than his master."

"No wonder Qi Maocai dared to do this. It turns out that he planned to go all out."

"Alas, this young man Tang was careless. He shouldn't have agreed to this game. He had already won, but now he's probably hanging on..."

Many people began to worry about Tang Feng secretly, thinking that he shouldn't have agreed to change the rules.

In this way, the outcome became an unknown again.

While everyone was discussing the final result, Qi Maocai was already too excited to control himself.

The ceramic that his apprentice Zhao Xingbo chose was a black-glazed oil-drip bowl from the Cizhou kiln during the Li Jin period.

The glaze is moist and shiny, black as lacquer, and when looking at it in the light, the porcelain bowl has a metallic texture.

It is definitely a fine product among black-glazed porcelain.

He quickly gave an estimate - two million.

He didn't think Tang Feng could have much attainments in porcelain.

After all, he was still young, and studying calligraphy and jade alone probably occupied all his time. How could he have the energy to study porcelain?

His two apprentices were also very talented. Even so, they had studied in their respective fields for decades to achieve today's attainments.

He didn't believe that a young man in his twenties could be proficient in these three types of identification skills at the same time.

That can no longer be called a genius, but a monster.

Is there such a monster in the world?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

They will win this round!

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Qi Maocai couldn't wait to stand up and shouted to Zhang Jicheng and his apprentice who were still whispering: "Time is up, haven't you finished the identification?"

Zhang Jicheng stood up slowly, his expression a little solemn.

Tang Feng, who was standing next to him, also looked dejected.

Qi Maocai was relieved just by seeing the expressions of the two.

Seeing their grief-stricken looks, they must have made a mistake, right?

This gave him a better chance of winning.

"Master Zhang, who will announce the result first?" He was already confident and spoke with a little more ease.

"You go first."

Zhang Jicheng sighed, looking worried.

Qi Maocai smiled and held up the Cizhou black-glazed porcelain bowl that his apprentice had chosen.

"The Cizhou kiln black-glazed oil-drip bowl from the Li Jin period is identified as authentic and is valued at... two million!"

"Wow..."

As soon as he said this, the scene was immediately like adding fuel to the fire, and it immediately exploded.
