Perspective Medical Genius Young Master-Chapter 1706 - 1697: Cheers

After inspection, he discovered that the War Soldier refined by Ao Cangsheng was just one line better than You Hai’s.

Without that line, Master Lu Ah might have judged You Hai as the winner based on completion time.

But precisely because of that line, You Hai was defeated narrowly.

"Master Lu Ah, what’s wrong? You’ve all seen the War Soldier, why not announce the result of the duel?"

Seeing Master Lu Ah’s expression full of shame and anger, Ao Cangsheng couldn’t help but mock him.

Though his words were spoken lightly, to Master Lu Ah’s ears, they were incredibly harsh.

In extreme anger, Master Lu Ah’s hands trembled, nearly dropping the War Soldier on the ground.

After a long while, Master Lu Ah suppressed his inner anger, refraining from using the War Soldier against Ao Cangsheng.

"Ahem ahem ahem, after the judgment of the Judgement Department, the winner this time... the winner... remains... Master Yi!"

Master Lu Ah’s face twisted, nearly gritting his teeth as he announced the duel’s result.

As soon as he finished, a wave of cheers erupted across the central plaza.

"Old curmudgeon, with your kind of creature, you thought you could plot against Master Yi?"

"Humph humph, seeing Master Yi win, does it make you, that old turtle, angry? Serves you right, you old turtle!"

"You thought you could plot against Master Yi, but you underestimated Master Yi’s power. Master Yi’s power, especially isn’t something a despicable person like you could fathom!"

...

Instantly, the plaza was filled with voices cursing, mocking, and insulting Master Lu Ah and the Judgement Department.

Hearing these voices, the ten people of the Judgement Department felt as if they had been slapped in the face repeatedly with a shoe, their faces burning hot.

On the high platform, as Baili Chuanqiong heard with trepidation that Ao Cangsheng won this duel, he nearly leapt with joy.

Ao Cangsheng had firmly slapped the Judgement Department in the face this time.

This slap was so satisfying that Baili Chuanqiong’s previous anger and frustration dissipated completely.

The three carefully calculated schemes by the Judgement Department had concluded completely by now.

No one expected such base and shameless schemes would still leave Master Lu Ah empty-handed in the end.

According to the rules, after the three challenges ended, Ao Cangsheng could start his challenge.

Having witnessed Ao Cangsheng’s extraordinary Artifact Refining Skill, Ye Xiu, the chief of the top three, couldn’t help but feel anxious.

Though outwardly he still didn’t take Ao Cangsheng seriously, inwardly he was very apprehensive of him.

Without knowing what trickery was involved in the Artifact Furnace, just being able to refine a Third Rank War Soldier in half an incense stick’s time was difficult for him to achieve.

Not far from Baili Chuanqiong, Baili Longyuan frowned again.

Obviously, he too realized the gravity of the situation. If Ye Xiu truly lost, no one here could surpass Ao Cangsheng.

After pondering a long time, Baili Longyuan eventually called Ye Xiu.

"Master Ye, based on your feeling, how confident are you in defeating Yi?"

Baili Longyuan looked at Ye Xiu quietly, his tone somewhat worried.

Ye Xiu didn’t want Baili Longyuan to see his unease, so he smiled faintly: "At least seventy percent! Even if Yi could surpass those three, he is still far behind in defeating me!"

Ye Xiu spoke calmly, but his eyes couldn’t help but flicker.

Baili Longyuan was skeptical, pondering: "Master Ye, you know, Yi defeated the three of You Hai under unfair conditions."

"I would like to know if, under equal conditions, you could easily defeat those three as well?"

"This... Haha, of course!"

Hearing this, Ye Xiu laughed dryly and then shifted his gaze with a smile.

"Good! That would be best!"

With Ye Xiu’s words, Baili Longyuan felt a bit more at ease.

On the other side, Master Lu Ah couldn’t continue his base ways; reluctantly, he followed prior arrangements, letting Ao Cangsheng start his challenge.

At this moment, everyone on the central plaza stared wide-eyed, watching Ao Cangsheng intently.

They all wanted to see who this mysterious Ao Cangsheng would challenge.

If there was to be the most exciting Artifact Refining duel in this Artifact Refining Holy Scripture, it would certainly be the showdown between Ao Cangsheng and the incoming Artifact Refiner Master.

For a moment, the noisy shouts on the central plaza vanished. Only the faint sound of people’s breathing filled the air.

Ao Cangsheng stood in the center of the plaza with his hands behind his back, his gaze coolly sweeping over the top nine. Back and forth three times, but he still hadn’t chosen his opponent.

This made many people extremely tense, so much so that they began to sweat.

After a very long time, Ao Cangsheng suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Xiu, standing in the first position among the nine.

"If I’m to challenge, I’ll pick a difficult one. Ye Xiu, it’ll be you!"

Ao Cangsheng smiled lightly as he spoke to Ye Xiu.

With those words, a wave of enthusiastic cheers erupted across the plaza.

Clearly, almost everyone was filled with anticipation for Ao Cangsheng’s choice.

Although from the beginning they suspected Ao Cangsheng would mostly challenge Ye Xiu.

When they heard Ao Cangsheng say Ye Xiu’s name with their own ears, they were still just as excited and expectant.

These two Artifact Masters before them were undoubtedly the most outstanding two Artifact Refiners of the day.

Ye Xiu was known for his powerful and superior Artifact Refining Skill, sweeping over all obstacles in his path.

While Ao Cangsheng was famous for his mysterious and unpredictable nature. It seemed that until now, no one could guess how strong Ao Cangsheng’s true Artifact Refining skill was.

When Ao Cangsheng spoke Ye Xiu’s name, Baili Chuanqiong and Baili Longyuan simultaneously looked at each other.

As their eyes met, the edge in both their gazes was sharp as knives. It seemed the duel between Ao Cangsheng and Ye Xiu was also a duel between them.

With a slight smile, Ye Xiu suppressed his inner apprehension, saying disdainfully: "Master Yi, don’t blame this old man for not reminding you. If you want to challenge me, be prepared for utter defeat!"

"Oh, really?"

Ao Cangsheng replied with a smile: "To be honest, I was prepared for utter defeat in all today’s duels."

"Unfortunately, my opponents keep surprising me. Despite seeking defeat wholeheartedly, I simply can’t lose, which really frustrates me!"

Hearing this, Ye Xiu’s expression turned unpleasant: "This old guy is too arrogant. Who else flaunts like this, it really irritates me!"

"Though my Artifact Refining Skill is unparalleled, I’ve never flaunted like this. Just because he beat a few unremarkable Artifact Refiners, he dares to flaunt like this? This is intolerable!"

Silently griping in his heart, Ye Xiu outwardly said: "Since Brother Yi wholeheartedly seeks defeat, well, this duel, I think I can fulfill Brother Yi’s wish!"

"However, if Brother Yi’s wish really comes true, please don’t start wailing and throwing a fit!"

Ao Cangsheng sneered, waving his hand: "Don’t worry, Brother Ye. Whether this duel ends in victory or defeat, I wouldn’t do such a thing."

"Of course, whether others will throw a tantrum or bang their heads against trees, that I wouldn’t know!"

The two exchanged words back and forth, with smiles on their faces, yet they couldn’t help sending chills through the hearts of bystanders.

What is a war of words? This is a living example. If words counted as weapons, the things they just said could probably kill many.

After a few verbal exchanges, Ye Xiu could no longer tolerate Ao Cangsheng’s Mount Tai-like patience.

He was afraid if they continued talking, he would snatch the War Soldier from the judging platform and attack Ao Cangsheng.

So, after mocking Ao Cangsheng one last time, Ye Xiu directly said: "Saying too much now is just empty talk. With the duel imminent, Master Yi, let’s settle it on the battlefield!"
