"Alright. Time to present your works one by one. Please come forward when your name is called." Master Xiaomei said in a very gentle tone. Although her voice was not loud, it still could be heard even in the four corners of this place. "Please do know that whatever the result for this compet.i.tion, you are all winners of our museum and our proud saplings! Continue to work hard in the future and you will gain something that will lead you to the path of heavens!"The partic.i.p.ants except Dunggo s.h.i.+, Hua Hengyun and Jin Rou, smiled wryly as they heard this. They knew that these were just some words of encouragement not to fall deep into a setback. Although the words were good to hear, it could not remove the fact that Master Xiaomei and probably the other masters already concluded what will happen today. Their seniors who were also watching below could not help but sigh. This was not good to hear for their ears. However, what could they do? What the other party said was in fact, true.
"Yes!" Everyone acknowledged this. Even feeling indignant, they could only swallow this because they knew from the very beginning that they were not able to put up a fight between the two geniuses that always clash every compet.i.tion. Who could barge in in their rivalry this time? Among them, no one was qualified nor near qualified! Glancing the works of the two geniuses, they already knew how vast the skills of them and the two!
After which, one by one, they presented their works. Truthfully speaking, their seniors were so proud as of now because no one had ever made a painting in the realm of Alvary Condensation! The greatest of them all created a Realm Light Middle-cla.s.s Painting!
One should note that in every realms of the Paintings, there were four sub-realms in present, and they were Low-cla.s.s, Middle-cla.s.s, High-cla.s.s and Peak-cla.s.s! Seeing that most of them created a Low-cla.s.s Painting, even though it was only Low-cla.s.s, it was still in the realm of Realm Light where true Master Painters should reach! These disciples, even had no chance of winning, fight with their all and achieved something that their seniors would not be ashamed!
Of course, these seniors would be proud, since in the past compet.i.tions, their best disciples could only create an Alvary Condensation Peak-cla.s.s Painting! Seeing this, this was a great achievement that even they were bound to lose, it was worth celebrating for especially for the one who created Realm Light Middle-cla.s.s Painting!
The partic.i.p.ants were also overjoyed. Each of them backed down from the stage and seat next to their respective seniors who were with them. After all, what"s the use of staying on stage? They might only shame themselves there! So they seated and watch the battle between these two geniuses with the highest chances of winning.
However, there was someone who did not got off the stage, and it was Miyu who was sitting next to Jin Rou.
Master Xiaomei was full of smiles as she said, "I am very proud of our painters who represented their Painting Guilds. Making a Realm Light Painting was not easy to begin with yet they already managed to do that. Truly, the young ones will be the hope of our future."
Gyune Tyy nodded and said, "Master Xiaomei is right. To think that we have so many talented painters around? From a painting of a hill, rolling mountains, a mother carrying a child and sorts, they were all Realm Light Paintings! Worth to be displayed in the Museum of the Hundred Arts!"
"But of course." Master Xiaomei chuckled, "Their works will really be displayed in our museum. If they wanted it that way, that is."
The partic.i.p.ants who presented their works heard this. Their eyes immediately lighted in joy. This.. was an act of recognition of the Museum Masters and the highest t.i.tle they could boast of. Why would they not agree with this kind of heavenly offer? Of course, they will grab it! Even no one wanted to grab it, they will! In fact, their seniors were already encouraging them if even they did not want to present their works!
Master Xiaomei continued, "Okay, I know that every partic.i.p.ants wanted their works to be displayed but let"s set those for later and continue with our compet.i.tion."
"Alright, Dunggo s.h.i.+, present your work now!"
As Dunggo s.h.i.+ heard this, he immediately stepped forward and fronted the crowd with his painting covered with a red cloth. He immediately putted it into the stand for presentation. He said, "Masters, this is my work. Please judge this according to your vast knowledge."
Next, when Dunggo s.h.i.+ removed the cloth that was covering the painting. Everyone was immediately stunned by the scene in the painting!
In the painting, there were two birds flapping their wings flying so freely around while the trees swayed its branches as if they were dancing. Although this painting was so simple with a simple scenery, everyone even the Museum Master widened their eyes in surprise as they said in unison, "A Spirit Animation Realm Painting!"
Even the crowd who was silently for the whole time could not help but be in an uproar!
"A Spirit Animation Realm! Ohmy...!"
"Sh-t! Dunggo s.h.i.+ has created a Spirit Animation Realm Painting this time around!"
"How good this kid is? I know that last time he can only create a Realm Light Peak-cla.s.s Painting. Now, he had a breakthrough?"
"Surely he was trying hard just for this day to defeat Hua Hengyun!"
Spirit Animation, this was the fourth Realm of the Path of Paintings. In this realm, a painting will literally have an animation effect! The things inside will move to project their movements! This painting was such that everyone had their mouths agape! This painting if Dunggo s.h.i.+ wanted this to be sold, packs of people with money will come knocking his door for sure to do bidding up to tens of millions of diamonds!
This was a Spirit Realm Painting they were talking about!
Master Xiaomei already regained her composure as she nodded her head, "Junior s.h.i.+ is really a rare genius. To create a Spirit Animation Painting at such a young age, you are incredible and did not shame your ancestors. Even though it was only a Low-cla.s.s one, this was still a great achievement you can be proud of!"
Shao Gan also commented, "Indeed. Congratulations."
Dunggo s.h.i.+ smiled as he heard praises, he immediately walked down the stage to see what his long time rival would present. He mumbled, "What will you do now, Hua Hengyun?"
However, Hua Hengyun was still calm as if this painting did not matter to him at all and stepped forward, putted the stand where his painting was, in the middle of the stage and said, "That"s all you got after all this time? Then you greatly disappointed me again, Dunggo."
And woos.h.!.+ He removed the cover of his painting!
Boom!
The painting literally made a boom sound but in a low tone!
Everyone was so loss of what to speak of this time as their eyes were only fixated in the painting!
Inside the painting, there was river streaming, with rolling mountains behind and an extravagant twin falls was falling waters down at a very gentle pace! The white clouds was moving bit by bit as if the world was turning, the blue sky was so realistic as the birds were flying towards the horizon! But the shocking thing of this painting was it was creating sounds as if they were real! This painting..!
Dunggo s.h.i.+ paled from this.
One of the museum masters stood as he exclaimed loudly, "Spirit Animation High-cla.s.s Painting!"
