To put it nicely, they are peace lovers; to put it bluntly, they are saints and saints, forgiving others on their behalf and criticizing their reasonable retaliations.

Xi Xi suppressed her anger and comforted her mother for a while, then quickly began to talk about her interactions with She Ji.

As expected, She Ji ultimately gave it an extremely low score of 3 points.

"It seems that it will be difficult for the Flowing Light series to move upmarket."

"No, there's no reward for fourth place; only the top three get one."

Will it depreciate in value later?

"Luckily I didn't try it."

"However, wasn't She Ji being a bit too blunt? Is he really that useless?"

"I never expected him to have such a strange temper."

"She Jimeng will come and teach you a lesson soon, hahaha!"

"Actually, I was just a bit harsh. The light-emitting hat does have a shorter exposure time."

"But the price is what it is; Glorious Lollipops aren't cheap."

"I love this!" The boy's clear voice broke the conversation. "Wow~ This flower glows! It's so pretty!"

Children seem to be particularly attracted to light-up objects, and their voices rose involuntarily. Without hesitation, they gave the highest score—10 points!

Chu Zhiqin was stunned. She never expected the doll to appreciate her work so much. In an instant, a mix of complex emotions welled up inside her: surprise, emotion, and a touch of disbelief.

"Perfect score! Wow!"

"Holy crap, this kid really does whatever he wants..."

"To be honest, these light-up hats and bags are really cool!"

"Yes, its functionality may not be as good as others, but it looks really good, like a work of art."

"It looks nice, but I won't buy it. It feels like a luxury item from the original world, a waste of money."

"Alright, we've reached the climax again. Now it's up to Granny You to give us her score."

"Now there's a highest score and a lowest score, so Grandma You's scoring is crucial."

"Oh my god, I'm so nervous!"

On the public screen, various comments flooded in like a tide, and the information conveyed between the lines kept people on edge.

Standing to the side, Xi's mother, whose heart had been relatively calm, was now rippled with emotion, unable to help but be infected by the tense atmosphere.

You see, Chu Zhiqin has lived a simple and peaceful life since birth. She has never experienced, and has never even dared to imagine, a large-scale and highly competitive competition like this.

Who could have imagined that the gears of fate would pull her into this, making her the focus of everyone's attention?

Due to extreme anxiety, Chu Zhiqin's hands, which were tightly gripping Xi Xi's, began to tremble uncontrollably, and fine beads of sweat gradually seeped from her palms.

Meanwhile, Granny You appeared exceptionally focused and attentive. She stared intently at the three sets of dazzling products before her, carefully observing them as she slowly spoke, "Just as She Ji said, these are not made in Dongli, but are original hand-woven items created by adventurers."

"Wow, this is the first purely handmade item out of all the products we have today!"

"I think that while our unique handmade products may not be as precise as those made in Dongli, they can still reflect the unique creativity and imagination of us adventurers to a certain extent."

"Take this hat for example. The function of an ordinary straw hat is to provide shade and protection from the rain, but she cleverly used cave bioluminescent plants to add lighting to the hat. And it's obvious that this adventurer treated the fibers of the bioluminescent plants with water."

"I personally think this is a very clever idea!"

"Although the lighting is not permanent, the straw hat will remain, its basic functions will still work, and the glowing plants can provide emergency food. Overall, the flaws do not outweigh the merits!"

After speaking, Grandma You pondered for a moment and finally gave it a score of 9!

Upon seeing such a high score, Chu Zhiqin was overjoyed and immediately felt extremely grateful to Granny You.

In Xi Xi's description, she always thought that this old lady was just a simple old woman who ran a convenience store. She never expected that Grandma You was a discerning person who spoke clearly and logically and was a reasonable person.

Not only Chu Zhiqin, but Xi Xi was also somewhat surprised. She suddenly became curious about Granny You's background.

Back at the convenience store, Grandma You only talked about her husband and son, but rarely mentioned her past, which made Xi Xi realize that she knew very little about Grandma You herself.

"It's handmade?! That's amazing!"

"Holy crap, I thought it was some kind of lucky player who opened a treasure chest and then disassembled it to upload!"

"So, if I didn't participate in the auction, I can still buy the same item from this player later?"

"Master Liuguang! Please be sure to open a shop!"

"I'd like to buy one too, can you customize it? My size is a bit unusual!"

"Support the opening of the store by the master of Flowing Light! Down with the overpriced Radiant Sugar!"

"Who can calculate the scores? What's the ranking now?"

"I'm calculating it; their average score is significantly higher than the fifth-place team!"

"So intense! It got me really fired up!"

Chu Zhiqin was a little afraid to look at the scores, but Xi Xi comforted her with a smile, saying that there was no prize for fourth place, and that making it up was just good luck, and there was no loss if she didn't make it up.

After a struggle with her conscience, Chu Zhiqin finally mustered up her courage and turned her attention back to the NPC appreciation screen.

At this moment, the final auction price of the third-ranked item on the sales chart is displayed before us.

Upon closer inspection, the price wasn't much higher than Chu Zhiqin's previous offer; it was only slightly better.

However, what caught everyone's attention was that the most outstanding item bid by the third-place winner was a night-clothes outfit from Dongli.

This night-clothes appears to be made of high-quality materials and is exquisitely crafted; its unique design is truly eye-catching.

What's most appealing is that this night-clothes outfit is clearly very effective in tunnel survival, so it's understandable that its price has remained high for a time.

However, this night-walking outfit is exactly the same as the that Xi Xi is wearing; they are virtually identical.

Xi Xi vaguely remembered that her night outfit came from the rare story book "Legacy". So she couldn't help but wonder, what kind of lucky person was the third place winner who could get the same night outfit as the rare book reward and even sell it?!

Thinking this way, the top seller on the sales chart started talking about it on the public screen again, but Xi Xi had no interest at all.

In addition to an ultra-cold-weather jacket that can withstand extreme cold, the first-place winner also had an insulated octagonal hat with good heat insulation properties.

These two items do look impressive and practical, but Xi Xi believes that her thermostatic cloak and insulated ceiling have similar functions, so she doesn't find them particularly surprising.

Therefore, what truly surprised Xi Xi and made her look at the company in a different light was not the top-selling person who held the top spot, but rather the slightly less impressive second-place winner.

A high-end voice changer disguised as a necklace, a pair of sunglasses that can see the prey's health bar, and a pair of rubber shoes that can run on water!
