"Liu Honghou of Hongshengguo, clever question, gets two points."
"The Kingdom of Kucha is located by the sea. This is a clever question, and I get two points."
On the scoreboard, apart from Zheng Quchi, every craftsman's score was starting to climb.
When it came to the "skill" questions, the scores of the craftsmen fluctuated wildly, with each trying to outdo the other in a fierce competition.
“Yu Manqi of the Southern Chen Kingdom, in his skillful attempt, scored three points.”
"Unexplained, a technical problem, I got three points."
"The Kingdom of Kucha was located by the sea, and its strategic location allowed it to gain control of three parts."
"The Kingdom of Kucha was located by the sea, and its strategic location allowed it to gain control of three parts."
In this round, the most intense competition was between Hai, Mo Ming, and Yu Manqi.
Among them, Yu Hai, who had been low-key and somewhat timid, had the highest score in the entire competition and inexplicably came in second place. Yu Manqi came in third, but the three scores were not far apart, with only a difference of one or two points.
The one at the bottom of the group was naturally Zheng Qing from the State of Ye.
She has never been called on by name, because she put all her answers in the "absolute" category of questions, and did not answer any of the previous questions on "craftsmanship," "skill," or "technique."
After grading the "skill" type questions, only the "unique" type questions remained.
For the "unique" questions, the nine craftsmen each selectively answered a few questions, and together they probably had a dozen or twenty answer sheets. However, the box containing the "unique" questions was completely filled with answer sheets.
Oh, I remember now, the person who makes up the majority here is Zheng Qing from the State of Ye.
Finally, someone dared to be the first to try and open Zheng Quchi's answer box.
The master craftsman reached out, opened the box, and took out the first answer sheet.
He was first attracted by its neat handwriting. The regular script was written with steady strokes, neat and strong strokes, and lively dots and strokes, which was quite pleasing to the eye. He could read ten lines at a glance without feeling tired.
Upon reading the answers again... he first frowned, continuing word by word, then his expression turned surprised, his eyes gleamed, and finally... he was in a bad mood.
"This, this, this..." He trembled as he answered the questions, his words becoming incoherent.
Seeing his loss of composure, the master craftsman assumed he was angry and couldn't help but mock him.
"Well? Did you give an irrelevant answer, or just spout nonsense?"
However, the master craftsman slammed his large, thick hand on the table and excitedly announced, "Zheng Qing of Ye Kingdom, four points!"
What? !
How did they suddenly get four points?
Everyone looked at the master craftsman with surprise, wondering if they had misheard.
The master craftsman ignored them and quickly handed the answer to Gongshu Jiruo.
After reading the answers in his hand and reviewing them once, his expression relaxed for a moment.
He slowly turned his gaze downwards to the shortest young man among the nine people. His eyes were as still as a lake, as calm as an unpolished bronze mirror, so calm that one could hear their own heartbeat.
His voice resounded throughout the hall: "Zheng Qing, record the four parts."
The others felt a profound shock and disbelief.
Even Gongshu everyone...
At that moment, Yu Manqi felt a rush of blood to his head, and his head began to buzz.
How is this possible? Zheng Qing, she actually answered the "ultimate" question correctly?!
