He's Actually A Sexy Girl? I Erected!

Chapter 436: [436] Sure enough, a hero emerges from youth_1
 

Not to mention Zhao Quande and the others, even Zhong Pan’er felt that Tang Feng was being a bit insulting.

Isn’t it excessive for you alone to challenge eighteen people?

And now you actually want to face four people at the same time, do you really not take these chief appraisers from various antique stores seriously?

“Can you hurry up and decide? I have business to do and don’t have that much time to waste with you,” urged Tang Feng impatiently.

Zhao Quande and the others exchanged glances, anger evident on their faces.

“Fine, this is all your own doing. Don’t say later that we bullied you.”

Zhao Quande agreed on behalf of everyone, and then began to form groups.

Soon, the first group of four people stepped forward.

These four were respectively skilled in porcelain, jade, paintings and calligraphy, and miscellaneous items of antiques.

Each person selected three antiques from the crowd of onlookers.

This time, one table was not enough, so Qin Yanan had no choice but to have two more tables brought over.

Three tables were lined up in a row, covered with antiques.

This immediately amazed everyone present.

To see one person facing off against four people at the same time was indeed unprecedented.

“Let’s start!”

As Zhong Pan’er announced the start of the competition, the four challengers began to examine the items with no time to lose.

Meanwhile, Tang Feng stood on the side, strolling by the antiques casually as if taking a leisurely walk.

He spent less than three minutes in front of each item.

Once he had looked at all twelve antiques, the total time taken was only about half a minute.

Then he picked up a pen and began to write down the answers in his notebook.

The crowd watching this scene was once again stunned speechless.

“No way, he’s finished looking at twelve antiques so quickly?”

“He didn’t even examine them closely, how could he possibly judge their authenticity?”

“Now I’m really starting to doubt if these appraisers are shills hired by Elegant Pavilion to act in collusion with them?”

“Impossible, absolutely impossible. This is a contest concerning one’s own reputation. If they lose, their reputation will be destroyed. Who would risk their reputation to put on an act for others?”

“That makes sense. But if it’s not like that, I really can’t explain Mr. Tang’s performance.”

“That’s right, the skill he has displayed is indeed somewhat inconceivable…”

The discussion around grew louder, everyone questioning Tang Feng’s performance.

Even Zhong Pan’er was confused.

As the host of the competition, she could observe every movement of each person up close.

The performances of the others were normal and unsurprising.

But Tang Feng’s performance was utterly baffling to her.

The man never went to examine the antiques in detail, merely standing beside them for a moment before quickly moving on to the next.

He glossed over them so quickly and hurriedly reached his conclusion.

What was even more astonishing was his extremely high accuracy rate.

So far, Tang Feng had maintained a one hundred percent accuracy rate without a single miss.

It was simply miraculous.

Tang Feng completed the appraisal at an incredibly fast speed, which put enormous pressure on the four appraisers on the field.

Who could have thought that Tang Feng, on his own, could finish the appraisal first before those four people?

To them, who had spent a lifetime in the antique business, this was a blatant slap in the face.

“Don’t be distracted by him, accuracy is what matters most,” Zhao Quande said, noticing that everyone was a bit rattled, and quickly spoke up to steady their spirits.

This calmed the four down and they continued to evaluate at their own pace.

About twenty minutes later, the four completed their appraisals and wrote down their results in their notebooks.

Zhong Pan’er took everyone’s answer sheets and began to announce them one by one.

“Chen Fengsheng’s answer for the first item, the Qing Dynasty Jade Guanyin, appraised as a counterfeit; the second item, a Ming Dynasty jade archer’s ring, appraised as authentic…”

She first announced the answers of the four appraisers.

Then she continued to announce Tang Feng’s answers and compared them.

In the end, the answers given by both sides were entirely consistent.

But since Tang Feng’s appraisal speed was faster, he won the round.

The scene was electrified once again, with exclamations of amazement coming from all directions.

One man facing off against four veteran industry experts and still managing to win easily.

His strength had reached a point that left people in awe.

Now, who could possibly stop this young man’s momentum?

Even without the first four rounds, his performance alone in this round facing four people was enough to make a name for himself in the antique world.

In the following two rounds of competition, Tang Feng continued his relentless efforts, claiming victory with an overwhelming presence.

So far, he had defeated sixteen senior appraisers in a row, an astonishing triumph.

Now, no one dared to doubt the promise made by Elegant Pavilion.

With such strength, they were fully capable of guaranteeing one hundred percent authenticity of their items.

There were even those who were secretly starting to regard Tang Feng as the third-ranking figure in the Zhonghai Antique Circle, second only to Ouyang Yushan and Yao Guhuai.

Perhaps his abilities were not inferior to those two, but his junior experience relegated him to third place.

At this point, after several rounds of consecutive battles, only two appraisers remained on Zhao Quande’s side, including him.

But everyone knew the contest was far from over.

The ones left for last were the true masters.

As long as these two hadn’t lost, anything was still possible.

Tang Feng’s performance today could be described as perfect.

But since he had agreed with Zhao Quande that he would retract his promise and publicly apologize to the consumers if he lost even one round,

the situation was now of his own making.

Zhao Quande exchanged a look with the other appraiser, who was white-haired, and both of them showed a resolved expression as if prepared to face death.

All hopes were now pinned on these two.

Whether they could defeat Tang Feng and force Elegant Pavilion to admit their error depended on their performance.

“Indeed, heroes emerge from the youth. Let this old man see for himself the prowess of the young Mr. Tang,” said the white-haired elder as he slowly approached Tang Feng, raising his hand in a fist and palm salute.

“Shuimo Residence, Sun Changfeng!”
