13.15 – Now, he could thoroughly tie him to his side

Xue Ling obtained an SSS Grade ore, and he could be very certain that there was no other stone of this grade in the entire stadium, so he was very relaxed when he obtained the official exemption letter that allowed him to go directly to the finals and avoid all the middle sections of the competition that were filled with all kinds of fancy matchups.
Many people commented on this matter, but this was a rule that had been set by the official management of the competition right from the start, and nobody could say anything about it. Xue Ling didn’t concern himself over this gossip, and began to look into the stone he had picked up at home.

This energy crystal was his stepping stone to success as well as his prop for the final competition. The final competition required him to purify the stone and carve it on the spot.
Because of this requirement, some people who envied Xue Ling were waiting for him to mess up. After all, those who were able to sculpt SSS Grade stones were all Master Sculptors, and some Senior Sculptors still wouldn’t easily start on SSS Grade stones. There was only half a month until the finals, and it was definitely not enough time for Xue Ling to master the ability to carve SSS Grade energy crystals.
Many people were of this opinion. [ He Yanyan: Don’t think that he will win the competition just because he obtained the best quality stone. Having a good stone still requires one to have good technical control. Him? Ha-ha. ]
Mu Xi was very dissatisfied with these opinions, and almost wanted to go online to go up against these people, but Xue Ling stopped him.
As a professional face slapper who had done it for over a hundred years, Xue Ling didn’t mind group slapping a whole bunch of people all at once. They could say whatever they wanted; everything would naturally become clear during the competition. There was no need to argue on the internet.
In addition to these envious and jealous people, in fact, more people were concerned about other aspects. Their focus was strange, and Xue Ling held some admiration for these people’s minds and how they could always pay attention to strange points that made others not know whether to laugh or cry.
For example, someone picked up on Xue Ling’s entrance and departure time, proving that he came out of the venue in less than half a day. They carefully analyzed the whole venue, and then concluded that Xue Ling had merely walked around the venue, chosen the stone he came out with, and then left.

With this analysis, he came to three possible conclusions. First was that Xue Ling cheated, and knew where the stone was right from the start so that he only needed to enter the venue and pick it up before exiting. The second was that Xue Ling had good luck, and a blind cat met a dead mouse and obtained a SSS Grade ore. The third was that Xue Ling’s spiritual strength was super powerful, and he could tell what level the energy crystal contained within the ore was just by touching them.
After arriving at three conclusions, the original poster analyzed the possibility of these three conclusions for the public.

[ The host for this contest is the Association of Sculptors, who are noble and hard to please. Even the royal family cannot influence them, so the possibility of cheating is zero. Even the Royal Family’s little nurturer didn’t receive this kind of treatment when they participated in the competition. Therefore, it was impossible for him to cheat through the Association of Sculptors just because he is the adoptive son Marshal’s Palace. So the first conclusion is a pass.
Was it possible for an even luckier person to pick an SSS Grade stone out of a vast sea of ores?
If you can, go up and do it. If you can really pick one out through luck, this original poster will kneel down and call you father.
The second hypothesis is simply there for the sake of increasing word count. Anyone with even the tiniest bit of brain would know that this competition is not held for fun. The Young Master was together with the Lord Marshal, and this kind of thing is simply a hoax that normal people could not do. If anyone believes that this kind of stone could be picked out by casually selecting an ore, they should probably read less fiction.
That left only the third point, which this original poster personally agrees with. It was not for the purpose of holding the youth’s big thighs, but rather using a valid list of data and facts to hit the sceptics in the face. As long as anyone studied the three scenes where the Young Master selected stones, they would be able to see one thing in common. The Young Master selected stones very quickly. He did not even touch the stones, but could still select the one with the highest energy by looking at them with his eyes. I’ve edited these three videos of him choosing stones. You can study them carefully. [Video 1] [Video 2] [Video 3]
Even if you enter the holographic mode of the video and stand beside the Young Master, you’ll be unable to figure out how he can choose the ores so accurately. He only needs to look for a while, and then will unhesitatingly reach out his hands to pick up the stones he’s selected. The entire process only takes a few blinks and he has no hesitation at all. What does this mean?
It shows that Young Master is very confident in his ability, and even more confident in his strength. To sum it up, the Young Master chose this SSS Grade stone this time not through other means or luck, but simply because he headed straight for it.
Scum that are hating on the Young Master!!! Are you ready to get slapped in the face by the Young Master in the finals?! ]
This post was forwarded countless times on the Star Net. The analysis that the original poster made was well-founded. What’s more, in the posts, the original poster shook all the haters with all kinds of data analysis and examples to beat up the haters’ faces.
Xue Ling looked at the post and found it interesting. He hadn’t realized that he had so many fans. After reading it, he was both amused and touched, then forwarded the post on his own homepage that night. His message was: Are you ready to have your face slapped by me during the finals?
He was always a proud and unrestrained person, and had absolutely no intention of being low-key on the internet. This was also what Xue Ling had wanted to do right from the start, but his advance warning on the internet led to a bloody storm on the entire Star Net.
Xue Ling didn’t care much about what happened on the Star Net due to his words, because as soon as the energy crystal arrived, he formally started training with his new teacher and stayed at his teacher’s home to begin closed door intensive training. Even if it was Yin Jia who wanted to see him, Meng Qian still refused to let him out.

The Marshal who had been suffering from being left outside for a few days was surrounded by low pressure. Mo Xi did not dare to bring up his resignation, fearing that the Marshal would tell him to get lost before he could even finish speaking. He wanted to go to the Military Headquarters, not leave the Capital Star entirely.
Mu Xi seemed to have become aware of some abnormalities during this period. She was generally quite insensitive to these things, but after spending such a long time together, she was quite perceptive regarding Yin Jia’s emotions. The more time Yin Jia spent in Xue Ling’s room, the more ups and downs he showed during his daily life, and it made Mu Xi’s scalp turn increasingly numb.
