Everyone was shocked and hurriedly turned to look back.

The person who spoke was the host of today’s competition — Empyrean Fox Continent’s most famous Sky Gem Grandmaster, Grandmaster Xiao!

When they saw him, everyone recalled their true purpose in coming here today and couldn’t be bothered to listen to the gossip any longer. All of them fell silent and looked at Grandmaster Xiao.

Grandmaster Xiao said solemnly, “Everyone, today’s competition is about to begin. Before we start, I’d like to say a few words.”

Everyone hurriedly said, “Grandmaster Xiao, please go ahead!”

Even Li Leyun and Xuan Qingling who were arguing earlier also sat down without saying a word.

Grandmaster Xiao said, “I believe that before all of you came, many of you have already heard of the hearsay. Everyone has a copy of the illustration that will be used in the competition today and you should be able to tell that this is a Spirit Armament that is refined using an entirely new refining method. Although the materials and Spirit Armament’s exterior look no different from ordinary standardized Spirit Armaments, the Spirit Armament’s power is much higher than standardized Spirit Armaments!”

“This illustration is drawn by a young Spiritual Armament Master and he had already sold it to the allied armies Headquarters. But the allied armies had especially given him lenient treatment and agreed for this Spiritual Armament Master to refine a batch of Spirit Armament that he refined for sale. He is totally indulged in the arts of Spirit Armament and has no time to manage this business. Hence he wishes to look for a suitable business partner. This is the reason for today’s competition.”

The drawing that you have in your hands is just one kind of Spirit Armaments, and it’s a simplified version. If you can win in today’s competition, the victor will get a total of 20 illustrations. I’m sure everyone knows how much the profits for this. This Grandmaster likes to offer my best wishes for everyone here, wishing you success.”

After Grandmaster Xiao finished speaking, he paused and looked at the crowd in the competition.

As expected, everyone showed an astonished expression.

Many of them knew that this business was cooperation with a Spiritual Armament Master and they would be refining a new Spirit Armament. But no one expected the total number of new Spirit Armaments to be 20, and not just one!

It was indeed generous to be able to give out 20 brand new Spirit Armament illustrations!

As for Li Leyun and Xuan Qingling who had already heard that there were 20 kinds of Spirit Armaments beforehand, they were apparently also shocked at this moment.

Because they assumed that the person who drew these illustrations was Grandmaster Xiao himself.

But from his tone, it seemed that the person who drew it was someone else.

Moreover, it was a “young Spiritual Armament Master”…

They wondered how young that person was.

To be able to modify ordinary Spirit Armaments and even raised the power of the Spirit Armament by so much, the Spiritual Armament Master who could accomplish this would at least be a Sky Gem Grandmaster, no?

No matter how young he was, he couldn’t be that young, right?

Xuan Qingling thought for a moment and asked curiously, “Grandmaster Xiao, this… author of the illustration that you mentioned, I wonder which Sky Gem Glass Chamber’s Grandmaster does he come from? Is it possible to introduce him to us?”

The moment Xuan Qingling asked, everyone snapped out of their trance and echoed in agreement.

“That’s right, Grandmaster Xiao. Can you please ask this Grandmaster to meet us?”

“We really want to meet this Grandmaster who is so generous. Will Grandmaster Xiao please introduce him to us?”

However, Grandmaster Xiao showed a difficult expression on his face and shook his head.
