If you don't have a famous teacher, a successor of a sect, or a legendary artifact, what right do you have to say that your ceramic art is extraordinary?
Sun Xide's question wasn't too excessive. He was just displeased and asked casually.
However, his question caused the faces of the princes to freeze!
'I went to great lengths to invite this expert up, and you actually dare to question him?'
'Your Sun family can't really think that we're here for your Sun family's ceramic arts, right?'
Especially the Great Chu prince, who was usually a hot-tempered silkpants. Hearing Sun Xide's words, he wanted to burst out on the spot!
With his immortal cultivator strength, he could beat Sun Xide a few hundred times with one hand!
Just as he was about to make a move in anger, he saw Liu Changgong with an indifferent expression. He smiled lightly and said, "This old man, I'm not part of any famous sects. I relied on self-study to become a genius!"
What Liu Changgong said was right. Wasn't it self-study?
The skills that the system gave him were just teaching. To be able to cultivate to the realm of returning to the origin was also something that Liu Changgong had worked hard to achieve!
As for Sun Xide's sarcasm and scrutiny, Liu Changgong could naturally hear it.
But since he was already on the stage, Liu Changgong's hands were itching. Pottery was an item that cultivated one's body and mind.
If one added in the messy secular world, it would be impossible to reach the realm of returning to the origin.
The pottery that Liu Changgong pinched never had a fancy appearance. It was just natural.
Hearing Liu Changgong's indifferent response, Sun Xide could not care less about the princes.
This was his most confident craftsmanship. It was impossible for him to be at a disadvantage in this kind of home ground!
"In that case, this old man is somewhat unable to recognize Mr. Liu's identity as a referee! Just now, several princes said that Mr. Liu's pottery skills are outstanding. I wonder if you can show it to us? It will also make us completely convinced!"
As he spoke, Sun Xide cupped his hands and bowed to the spectators in all directions as he spoke loudly.
"Everyone, our Sun family's pottery skills have always been the leader of this Ceramic Capital. Now, the princes say that Mr. Liu's skills are outstanding. If you want Mr. Liu to be your judge, it's not that our Sun family can't give up this position as a judge. It's just that we are confident in our own culinary skills. If we want Mr. Liu to show off, it shouldn't be too much, right?"
"That's right, it's not too much!"
"That's right, so what if he's a prince? If you don't want to be a referee, then return the position of referee to the Sun family head! You want to be a referee just because you can drag someone along? Do you really think that I, Tao, have no one!"
"The Sun family head is right. If Mr. Liu wants to be a referee, then he has to show off his pottery skills!"
"I have always relied on my craftsmanship to make a living. Even if it's a strong power, you can't make me lower my head!"
"I support the head of the Sun family!"
...
Most of the people below the stage were truly skilled craftsmen. Although they were facing a few princes, they had nothing to fear.
After all, the sky was high and the emperor was far away!
The Great Xia, Great Chu, and Great Qi were all kingdoms of the Zhongzhou Region. What did they have to do with the Southern Region?
Letting you be the judge was giving you face. If you don't accept, then don't blame us for not giving you face!
At this moment, the craftsmen of Ceramic City were all stirred up by Sun Xide's few words!
Li Xuanyi and the other two princes' faces were gloomy. They really had the impulse to directly use their magic power to kill these ignorant mortals in one go. However, Senior Liu was by their side, so they couldn't overstep their boundaries!
Just when Li Xuanyi couldn't hold it in any longer, he saw Liu Changgong nod indifferently.
"Well, since we're here, it's a pleasure to participate in the Ceramic Arts Convention! How do you want me to show it?"
Hearing Liu Changgong's words, the princes could only hold back their temper. They looked at each other and saw the viciousness in each other's eyes. They were just mortals. Even if they weren't immortal cultivators, with their status as members of the royal family, they could mobilize an army and flatten this place!
'This Sun Xide probably crushed his own brain by pinching a clay figurine, right?'
The few of them had the same thought in their hearts.
In this era where the imperial power was supreme in the Mortal World and strength was respected in the Immortal Cultivation World, it was rare to see someone as tough-minded as Sun Xide!
On the side, Sun Xide's heart sank when he saw Liu Changgong's calm expression!
This kind of behavior did not seem like someone who was fishing for fame. He was too calm!
He had voiced his doubts when he was hot-headed just now. Now that he saw the excitement of the crowd below the stage, he also felt a little regretful.
However, he had no choice but to shoot the arrow at the bowstring. Now that the situation had become like this, it was useless for Sun Xide to regret. Then, he could forget about returning to the imperial family. The most important thing now was to not let these princes bear a grudge against him!
Sun Xide came back to his senses and thought quickly. In the end, he could only decide to let Liu Changgong show off a little. As long as it was not too ugly, so what if he admitted defeat?
Losing face was better than losing his life!
At this moment, Sun Xide suddenly remembered the identities of the people in front of him. He did not know what had happened just now...
"Since Mr. Liu is willing to show us, Let's show you the most ordinary pottery figurines in Ceramic City!"
It was true that Ceramic City used to be famous for its pottery figurines. Many people with outstanding skills could easily create lifelike pottery figurines with the naked eye!
Some people with real strength could even create a long street with just a glance!
This kind of skill had always been something that even the Ceramic King was proud of!
Now, Sun Xide spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, which caused a wave of applause among the audience below the stage!
"Good! Let's show this!"
"I, Tao Du, can create the best clay figurines. Let's show this!"
"That's right. If Mr. Liu Can create a long street with just a glance, so what if we let him be the referee?"
The crowd was excited, but no one noticed that a figure hidden in a black robe was looking at the stage with a cold expression.
There was a black line in this person's hand that followed his body and landed under his feet. Then, it kept spiraling until it reached Sun Xide's feet on the stage!
Obviously, Sun Xide's reckless brain was not him being impulsive!
It was just that this person had secretly influenced Sun Xide's behavior and thoughts!
The black-robed man's eyes were cold. They looked straight at the unsuspecting Liu Changgong!
The coldness in their eyes did not seem to be sinister. Instead, it was a look of fear!
A mumble that only the black-robed man could hear came out of his mouth.
"The Heaven's Legacy clay doll is the Heaven's Legacy... Is it really you? The only one who has received the tribulation in the past ten thousand years?"
No one present had noticed the black-robed man's covetousness. Liu Changgong was only a mortal, so he naturally had no way of discovering it.
After hearing Sun Xide's words, he nodded indifferently. It was just a clay doll. What was so difficult about it?
"Alright, who are you going to pinch?"
Liu Changgong opened his mouth faintly.
