Chapter 5984: first place

When Dongfang Qian had finished one-third of the carving, Yun Chujiu had a rough idea of her level. She then picked up the carving knife and began to carve.
When the crowd saw that she had finally moved, they all stared at her with their eyes wide open and kept discussing:
“TSK TSK, not to mention other things, that Yan Qingcheng’s hand movements are very fast. It’s almost making my eyes blur!”
“What’s the use of being fast? ! I think she’s just randomly carving!”
“What you said makes sense. I’ve never seen anyone carve jade talismans so fast. She must be putting on an act.”
While everyone was discussing animatedly, Yun chujiu put down the carving knife in her hand and raised her claws. “Host, I’ve finished carving!”
Dongfang Qian was immediately shocked. The spiritual energy that she had injected into the carving knife was slightly unstable. She quickly calmed down and focused on continuing to carve. She sneered in her heart. That Yan Qingcheng must be lying! She must not have completed it!
However, when she finally finished carving and saw the jade talisman seal placed on the table in front of Yun Chujiu, her head immediately buzzed.
The jade talisman seal placed on the table was a high-grade explosive jade talisman seal. Although the one in her hand was also a high-grade talisman seal, her speed was not as fast as Yan Qingcheng’s. She had lost.
How was this possible?
Yan Qingcheng had only started carving when she was one-third done. How did she succeed?
Everyone was in disbelief when they heard the final result. How was this possible?
Yun Chujiu knew that it was time for her performance, so she stood up with her walking stick. After everyone was quiet, she said,
“Everyone, I know that everyone must be very surprised that I can carve faster than Dongfang Qian.
There is only one reason, and that is that hard work can make up for bad work.
I know that my talent is limited, so I have to put in more effort than others. If others practice once, I will practice ten times. If others practice ten times, I will practice a hundred times.
Speaking of which, I am ashamed to say that I only know how to carve one type of jade talisman seal. Coincidentally, it is this bursting jade talisman seal. Practice makes perfect, which is why I am able to reach my current speed.
“Actually, I feel that the first place should belong to student Dongfang Qian. In terms of talisman seal strength, I’m inferior to her. It’s just that I was lucky.”
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. So she had been practicing the exploding jade talisman seal. No wonder her speed was so fast. This made sense.
It was also because she was lucky. If it were any other topic, she would definitely not be able to compete with Dongfang Qian. It could only be said that Dongfang Qian was unlucky.
Dongfang Qian originally had some fear towards Yun Chujiu, but now it had turned into self-consolation. It turned out that she was just lucky and could not compete with herself.
Below the stage, Ding Wenrou cursed in her heart. How could diligence make up for clumsiness? Liar!
When the wall was blown up earlier, this fellow was much faster than this! Moreover, those were all supreme grade items!
Although Yun chujiu had said a few “Heartfelt words”, the result could not be changed. The first place in the talisman competition still belonged to Yan Qingcheng and the Ten Directions Academy.
Although president Gu was a little surprised that Yun chujiu could win the first place, his excitement was beyond words.
President Yu pursed his lips. What was there to be proud of? It was just a blind cat meeting a dead rat.
There was still the alchemy competition. Even if the Ten Directions Academy won the top ten, the total score was still not as much as the divine enlightenment academy.
Moreover, it was impossible for the Ten Directions Academy to win the top ten. Therefore, the Divine Enlightenment Academy would definitely win the hundred-year competition.
The people of the Ten Directions Academy also knew that they might not even win the hundred-year competition in theory. However, they would not lose if they lost. They still had to strive for a good result in the last alchemy competition.
