After about two incense sticks of time, Shen Qian was the second to finish carving. The moment she put down the spirit carving knife, Shen Qian's body went limp and she almost fell.
At the critical moment, the little girl used her strength to support herself on the table next to her and then slowly sat down on the chair next to her.
At this time, Shen Qian looked like she had just been fished out of the water. It seemed that carving in less than two hours was more tiring than fighting for a few days and nights.
"Have a good rest. You did very well, very well."
Chu Chen said softly as he focused on his carving. His tone was filled with deep concern.
However, there was no expression on his face. He didn't even look over. It seemed that he was wholeheartedly focused on his carving.
"You said it. If the elder isn't satisfied later, I'll … I'll bite you to death!"
After hearing Chu Chen's words, Shen Qian snorted softly. However, she couldn't help but reveal a gratified smile on her face. She rubbed her temples tiredly, then immediately began to circulate her energy to recover her cultivation.
At this time, most people had basically finished carving.
Not long after Shen Qian finished carving, the two men and two women who followed Huangfu Yin also finished their carvings at the same time. After carving, they reached their limits. They all sat on the chairs and panted heavily. Their faces were filled with uncontrollable exhaustion.
After another incense stick's worth of time, Qi Fei and Li Taixin finished their carvings one after another.
Qi Fei's face was still cold. The indifference and toughness on his face were like ice that wouldn't melt. It was impossible to see what he was thinking.
Li Taixin had a bitter smile on his face. He gently shook his wrist and shook his head. "Sigh, time really doesn't spare people. When I was young, I chopped firewood from morning until late at night and I didn't feel tired. Now, I can't even carve a little bird … "
"Brother, you definitely didn't chop nine profound wood when you were young!"
Hearing Li Taixin's words, someone laughed and teased him, causing the whole hall to roar with laughter.
Li Taixin smiled and shook his head. He took out an exquisite little box from his storage ring. "Come, come, come. It's fate that we were schoolmates. I have a pack of excellent secular Biluochun. This is a good tea that has been sealed for decades! Although it's not as tasty as the spiritual tea leaves of the cultivation world, this unique taste of the mortal world has its own unique flavor! "
This old man was very friendly. Without any explanation, he began to carefully brew a cup of tea for everyone.
The crowd did not reject his personality, and the atmosphere in the bamboo house became lively in an instant. It was not as lifeless as before.
At this moment, even Qi Fei, who had been wearing a cold expression all this while, relaxed a little.
"Eh? Brother Chu, you're still busy. "
Li Taixin asked in surprise when he handed the cup to Chu Chen and found that the carving in his hand was only half completed.
Hearing his words, everyone hurriedly looked over, only to see that Chu Chen was still carving unhurriedly. His expression was very focused, and he only chuckled softly. "Mm, thank you, brother. You can put the tea beside me first."
"What's wrong with this kid? We've already finished carving, but he's only carving half … "
"This guy is also a weirdo. Alas, look, why is his carving different from ours?"
With a cry of surprise, everyone suddenly found something strange.
Chu Chen had already completed more than half of the carving in his hand. He was not like the others, who were carving according to the picture of the goshawk fighting. Although the other people's carvings were different in terms of details, spirit, and patterns, they were all adult male eagles. However, Chu Chen's carving was actually a black baby eagle. It looked like a baby eagle that had just hatched not long ago.
What was going on?
Everyone's face was full of surprise and disbelief.
Not knowing what Chu Chen was up to, Shen Qian was surprised and puzzled. However, Chu Chen had always liked to do shocking things, so she had nothing to worry about.
Li Taixin, on the other hand, was surprised with a trace of confusion. He could not understand Chu Chen's motives at all.
As for Huangfu Yin and the few people around him, their faces were full of disdain. In their eyes, Chu Chen's unconventional behavior was nothing more than grandstanding to attract attention. Usually, this kind of person would die the earliest.
As for Qi Fei, he just casually glanced at Chu Chen and drank his tea.
It had to be said that Li Taixin's precious Biluochun tea did have a unique flavor. Although it did not taste as good as the spirit tea of the cultivation world, it had a rich taste that spirit tea did not have.
The more one tasted it, the more one could feel that it was unusual.
Regardless of what others thought, Chu Chen's expression did not change from beginning to end. He unhurriedly carved the Jiuxuan Black Wood.
Seeing this, everyone could only wait patiently for him. He knew that Chu Chen only finished carving after more than an hour.
"This … this is a male eagle?"
When Huangfu Yin and the few people around him saw Chu Chen's work, they almost laughed out loud.
In front of Chu Chen's eyes was a baby eagle about half the size of a palm. It was crawling on the ground with its eyes half closed.
It had to be said that this baby eagle was very realistic. It looked as vivid as a real eagle. The few sparse feathers on its chubby body were messy and crisscrossed.
But this was too funny. That boy had clearly asked to carve an adult male eagle! If someone who did not know better saw this chubby and furry thing, they would think it was a black little chick!
"The Jiuxuan Black Wood has been carved. Teacher, please appraise it."
The moment Chu Chen put down the spirit carving knife in his hand, the clear and childish voice of the boy sounded from above.
It seemed that the little boy had been using his spirit sense to observe downstairs. When they heard this, they quickly stood up from their seats. No matter what, as students, they had to show due respect to a teacher.
The little boy went downstairs first. After looking around, he nodded as if he was very satisfied with everyone's self-awareness. He then respectfully saluted upstairs. "Teacher, they've finished carving."
"Mm, got it."
Following a slow reply, the nameless elder, who looked like an old farmer in the mortal world, slowly walked down the stairs. He seemed to never wake up. His eyes were half closed and he yawned incessantly.
