The people who came today are all the top ten craftsmen. They have kept everything simple, and apart from one companion, they cannot bring any other people. Moreover, the journey to the "Thousand Trees Hall" is quite challenging. Why did the "Jichun Craftsmen's Guild" final have to be held here?
Yuwen Sheng said, "Follow me."
Zheng Quchi pointed to his own nose: "Am I your follower?"
Upon hearing this, Yuwen Sheng smiled and asked with amusement, "If you're a follower, then what am I?"
Although he looked down on him with the eyes that seemed to regard him as an idiot, Zheng Quchi still felt that this matter was simply illogical.

So, she and Yuwen Sheng were the fourth to arrive, and there were still six finalists who hadn't arrived... She thought for a moment, and if the person who fell off the cliff was a finalist, then there might be five of them?
Upon entering the Thousand Trees Palace, she was awestruck by the height of the dome. At the top of the dome was an opening several meters in diameter, from which ten lines radiated downwards. In each line, ten exquisite statues of gods and Buddhas were carved.
