Chapter 70 Apprenticeship
Several high-level stone gamblers in the guild were sitting around a round table, with the report card that had just been counted in the middle, and the eyes of the old men were all fixed on the name of one of them——Bai Zishi , No. 256, selection of wool: five yuan per level, grade: five yuan big increase: one piece of water seed, one piece of waxy seed, one piece of water glutinous seed, one piece of water seed yellow jade, one piece of hibiscus seed…
“Eh? Look, this little guy broke three out of five yuan.”
“Really?!” A few old guys leaned over to take a look, and it really was! Of the five pieces of wool, only the water species and the water species Huang Fei were completely solved, and the remaining three pieces were all cut across the board.
The old guys glanced at each other, feeling inexplicably relieved.
Maple clicked his tongue twice, and his tone was quite unpleasant: “What do you mean by accepting a young apprentice? Isn’t this only accepted for less than four months? That’s all it is?” Trembling from the report card, “If the Shijie method is stronger, will you let others accept apprentices?!”
“You’re lucky if you can’t stand others!” Gray said sourly, “Tell me about his apprentices, which one is not good?”
Thinking of the apprentices that Sigma had taken, the old men looked at each other again, and they all saw Chi Guoguo’s jealousy in each other’s eyes. Reid coughed softly, and said slowly: “I feel that my heart has been seriously hurt. I will never admit to the bet I made yesterday!”
A few people were taken aback, looking at the upright Reid, they couldn’t help cursing “shameless” in their hearts, then stroked their beards, bared their teeth, and then expressed their anger, you just say Let me say a word, roughly meaning: Sigma, you are so old, you are so upbeat after taking in several apprentices, and now the closed disciples are giving us a hard time! Seriously affected the mood and quality of our apprenticeship. And you got a good apprentice, not to mention your modesty, you still want to gamble? That would be too greedy, too serious!
Sigma didn’t know what the bad friends were thinking at the moment, and was thinking about how to hide.
The aggrieved and depressed Bai Zishi’s heart also gradually subsided under Vincent’s various considerations. Everything has been done, and he has no regrets. After all, whether it was a stone betting battle with Sieves or the jadeite picked in the mining area, it was Master Jieshi who helped him solve it. He said that his method of dissolving stones is not very good, and Master also knows this. What about five complete jadeites now? What’s more, there are things like five in five that were too eager to restrain him before, what does Sigma think?
Moreover, jadeite is not porcelain from the Celestial Dynasty. If it is damaged, its artistic value will be destroyed. As long as it is not stored for a long time, it will be used by Vincent after the exam is over, which does not mean that its value has been destroyed. When he was a carver, he did not rarely see a whole piece of jade being divided. It’s just that he can’t do his best, but he can’t. This feeling is more uncomfortable.
However, there is something to give. As long as the master is not overly suspicious, it is worth it.
Vincent also heaved a sigh of relief for Bai Zishi who finally regained his vitality. Seeing that he really recovered, the orc dared to comfort him: “It’s okay, even if the results are not good this time, there will be next time.” Bai, don’t worry too much.”
Bai Zishi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He finally knew why Vincent didn’t even ask about his grades, and he seemed to be extra cautious these days. Holding his hand, he said directly: “My grades are very good, and I picked five yuan. It’s all emerald inside. I’m not happy because the Jieshi broke three pieces, and they were all cut into two parts with one knife.”
Vincent looked at it silently for a while, then suddenly grabbed the man, pressed him on the sofa, and kissed Bai Zishi hard. His breathing was difficult and his hands and feet were sore. After punishing Bai Zishi, Vincent took out the communicator and prepared to report to Sigma. When Sigma heard that five hits five, he almost jumped up and scolded: “That little **** Bai, five hits and fives showed me that picture Look! Didn’t he just unravel three pieces? I already knew that his calculus level is not very good, so why do you still want to unravel all five pieces? He only unwrapped a few woolen pieces! Learned to be scary? Wait for me to clean up he!”
Vincent forwarded Sigma’s exact words to Bai Zishi verbatim, only making the Little Asian orc man look bitter.
On the day when the exam results of the Stone Gambler’s Association were announced, candidates with computers stood in front of the computer, and many went directly to the gate of the Stone Gambler’s Association to wait for the list. At eight o’clock, the results came out on time. This time, out of the 13,000 candidates, only 130 passed. Bai Zishi started to read from the top of the list, but the further down he looked, the colder his heart became. It has reached more than one hundred, and there is still no name, and his bright eyes slowly dimmed. He kept looking at the last one with a sullen face, and then he was startled. Looking at the last name, he slowly smiled, and the smile became brighter and brighter: “I got it! I got it! I really got it!”
The last line on the notice said: Bai Zishi Candidate No. 256, the written test score is 48 points, and the practical score is 100 points. There is also a line of notes at the back: In view of the excellent practical performance of the candidate, he was specially approved to pass. In case of any objection, all interpretation rights belong to the General Association of Stone Gamblers.
After reading this notice, many of those who noticed the special case of Bai Zishi were very unconvinced, obviously failing the written test! Those who could still wait calmly, so they went to pick up the specific results of each person. When they saw that Bai Zishi had all the five first-grade wools, and the worst one was also a hibiscus seed, they were all dumbfounded. No way, this result is too tough.
So on the second day after the report card was released, Bai Zishi received the notice and went to the guild to get his first-class stone gambling master apprentice certificate and badge. During this period, he was surrounded by 129 people who passed at the same time.
Bai Zishi is red. Because of being specially approved this time, he became completely famous. The assessment system of the Stone Gambler Guild has been established for 777 years. A total of five people have been specially approved to pass the assessment. The most recent special approval was 212 years ago. It was a sub-orc man named Duncan. He did not receive systematic education as a stone gambler, and he failed the written test, but in the practical test, he got a good grade of 5 in 4, and one of them was made of glass, which was specially approved. Later, Duncan became a seventh-level stone gambler and died of illness at the age of one hundred and five. The sub-orcs who were specially approved before all became high-level stone gamblers in the end, and the lowest one was a sixth-level stone gambler.
When someone leaked these materials, the ‘Baizishi fever’ that had faded away became popular again. His other affairs were also revealed little by little, first of all, the partner status of the expert Garcia. People also feel that the strong results have been explained, and the individual who was originally envious and jealous has some balance in his heart. Ya family’s apprentice…
In the following, the stone gambling battle between Bai Zishi and Sieves was also revealed. The same tough results made people look up to him, and his report card of passing the examination of the stone gambling academy with all excellent grades this semester…
Later, at the age of 24, he was still underage in the Boya Continent, and he had never entered the industry before he entered the Stone Gambling Academy. He had reached this level after only half a year of study…and so on.
It can be said that these things were picked up in twos and threes one after another, and the mentality of many concerned people has been slowly changing. From the very beginning, they felt unconvinced, thinking that Bai Zishi might be just lucky, but with a With the emergence of facts and evidence, they began to feel that Bai Zishi could obtain all of these due to his own strength.
There are also talents in betting on stones. Many people admit this. Now Bai Zishi has become a person who is extremely sensitive to wool. As long as such a person can persevere and withstand the pressure on the way of betting on stones, it is definitely not difficult to succeed, not to mention the cultivation of Yajia Sigma.
All kinds of sour words and injustices gradually weakened, while the admiration for Bai Zishi’s stone betting performance began to dominate and last for a long time.
Sigma is very proud now, especially those old guys in the guild who competed in stone gambling skills when they were young, and compared their apprentices when they were older, with those sour words from time to time, which made him feel very comfortable every time he heard them, and wished he could Bring Bai Shishi with you, show off, and make those old guys jealous. It is exactly in response to the sentence he said, “Whoever grabs it will be sure.” Those old guys didn’t even say much because of the bet he won.
And the central figure of this incident, Bai Zishi Tongzi, after Kenma contacted him and told him firmly that “you are popular”, he must pay attention to nothing urgent and never go out. Being surrounded by crowds is not a wonderful thing.
However, this idea was quickly shattered by Sigma. Now Bai Zishi is his precious apprentice, his talent has been proven once again, and the importance of Sigma has also risen linearly. What is directly proportional to the importance of Sigma is the lessons he taught and the homework he left. Every day he followed Sigma to the mining area to study woolen materials. He always left at dawn and returned after dark, and got into bed as soon as he came back to take a shower.
Compared with the busyness of his lovers, Vincent started to prepare for the promotion. Level 7 is a threshold, which is very dangerous. After he got the purple eyes, he began to collect relative auxiliary materials. He did not hunt and kill. Rui, after getting the last medicinal material from the eldest sister a few days ago, and absorbing the jadeite that Bai had gambled during the assessment, he finally started to hit the seventh level.
Because the preparations in advance were sufficient, and Vincent’s nerves also endured the pain of promotion, so after three days of retreat, Vincent successfully obtained the physical fitness of a seventh-level hunter. Body, after learning new hunting skills, is a veritable seventh-level hunter.
Now it’s like saying that everything is settled. Vincent looked at the back of his Little Asian orc man walking out of the house, and smiled slightly. Some things could finally be done. Hmm… Tomorrow, I will ask Grandma Bai Xiang to take a day off.
