"Shut up!"
Tiffany slapped the table in anger: "Don't think that just because you got the 'epoch' medal you can do whatever you want! How long have you joined the 'Temple of Elements'? How many things have you seen? How dare you talk nonsense about the work of a master! My teacher's snake crossbow has been evaluated by many masters of the Temple and is listed as a three-star item! How dare you say that it will be eliminated?! "
"Yes!"
"The snake crossbow is the work of a master! How can it be eliminated?"
"This newcomer is too arrogant! He thinks that because he accidentally produced a new type of textile machine, he can do everything!"
"He is too arrogant! You can't blame him for bearing so much vanity at this age. It is inevitable that he will get arrogant."
The audience was discussing in low voices.
Dean looked around the audience. His face was as cold as frost: "First of all, I don't deny the contribution and authority of the master. But since the snake crossbow was only rated as a three-star item and not a five-star item, it means that there is still room for improvement! As a military invention, there has always been a first place! There is no second place! Because the second place person will die on the battlefield! "
His voice was cold as he looked at the audience: "I dare not say that my military crossbow is better than the snake crossbow, but it is by no means inferior to the snake crossbow!"
Tiffany was so angry that she laughed: "Do you mean that your crossbow which took you half a day to make is equal to my teacher's snake crossbow? Can it reach the standard of a three-star item? "
Dean looked at her indifferently: "What you can understand is what I want to express."
Tiffany laughed: "Ignorance is pitiful, sad and hateful!"
"I think so too." Dean indifferently said: "But I won't hate."
"You will regret it." Tiffany put away the anger on her face and looked at Dean: "Originally, I respected you for the great contribution of the new textile machine. But you must pay the price for your arrogance! Since you think that your crossbow is not inferior to my teacher's snake crossbow, then please show it to us. "
Dudian indifferently said: "The crossbow is a killing weapon, not a performance prop. My things don't need to be displayed. Since you believe in the authority of the master, everyone here believes in it, and I also believe in it, then this matter should be handed over to the master." Speaking up to this point, he said to Celt on the stage, "Master, please verify it. This is my design blueprint."
After saying that, he took out a blueprint that he had prepared beforehand.
Celt didn't look at the drawings but looked at the teenager. From the previous tough attitude towards Tiffany to the confident declaration of the audience and stubbornly resisting the public's opinion. His attitude was neither servile nor overbearing. Everything seemed calm and mature. He didn't say anything extreme because of the dispute with the other side. He also didn't get irritated by the one-sided negative comments of the audience. Celt was quite surprised from the point of view of a bystander. Such a calm way of dealing with things was difficult even for a mature person.
"Let me take a look first," Celt said softly.
Dean handed over the crossbow and the blueprints.
Everyone in the Divine Hall whispered to each other.
Tiffany turned to look at Celt and waited for his result.
Dean stood under Celt's high table. There was no trace of anxiety on his face.
Time ticked by.
Half an hour later, Celt slowly raised his head and moved the magnifying glass from the blueprint. He looked hesitant and complex. He looked at Dean and Tiffany who was quietly waiting for him. After thinking for a while, he said: "According to my preliminary view, the military crossbow is more innovative. It is suitable for short-range combat. Its lethality and rate of fire are relatively high. In my personal opinion, there is no problem for it to be listed as a three-star item."
The entire Divine Hall was silent. Everyone was surprised as they looked at Celt. They suspected that there was a problem with their ears.
Tiffany was stunned for a moment. She quickly reacted and said: "Master, did you say that this thing has reached the level of a three-star item? How is it possible? He, he only used it for half a day, this … "
Celt saw the paleness of her face and sighed in his heart. He slowly said, "My evaluation is biased and only represents my personal opinion. The specific value needs to be evaluated by the Elemental Association. But one thing is certain. If it is only used as a mission item to improve the 'snake crossbow', this military crossbow is completely qualified and can pass!"
Tiffany's face turned ugly. These words were tantamount to giving her a slap in the face.
Dean looked calm. He wasn't surprised.
The people in the audience looked at each other. When they heard that Celt thought that this thing could reach the level of a three-star item, they knew that such an item was fully qualified to complete the task. But they didn't expect that Dean, a newcomer who had joined for half a month, could complete such an item in just half a day. It was extremely rare for a master like Celt to give such an evaluation.
"No!"
"Isn't this newcomer too exaggerated?"
"Is there really such a thing as' talent '?"
"Master Celt won't lie. Otherwise, the Element Association would slap his face. Even if this thing isn't a three-star item, it is definitely a two-star item. How many years would it take for an intermediate architect to be able to make a second two-star item?"
"This kid is so arrogant. He really has the capital to be arrogant!"
"I don't know what the Element Association's evaluation of this thing is?"
The people in the audience were discussing.
"The outcome of the appeal has been decided. Mr. Dean won. The meeting is adjourned." Celt looked at Tiffany, slightly shook his head and turned to leave.
Dean saw that Celt took away the blueprint and crossbow. He knew that Celt was helping him to hand over the crossbow to the Element Association for evaluation. After the defense in the Temple, the reputation of the crossbow would spread much faster than normal. In this case, the speed at which he would get benefits would increase by several times.
"Impossible, impossible …"
Tiffany whispered to herself. Her face was pale and bloodless.
Dean glanced at her and came in front of her. He was already 1.75 meters tall, but in front of this woman he was still half a head shorter. He needed to look up to see her.
Tiffany recovered as she saw Dean. She put away the mist in her eyes and gritted her teeth: "What do you want to say? Do you want to laugh at me?"
"Laugh at me?" Dean smiled: "That's what children do. I just want to tell you that the best way to pay respect to a master is not to humbly bow your head but to surpass him!" Then he turned and left along the stairs.
