The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 117: Domineering Wei Wei

Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud

In an instant, the judging panel quieted down at once.

It seemed as if they didn’t anticipate Young Master Wu Shuang would surprisingly speak on behalf of a spoiled good-for-nothing. One after another, the judges could not help but turned and looked over at Jing Wu Shuang, astonishment was apparent in their eyes!

Nevertheless, the depths of the latter’s eyes were emotionless, without any stirrings whatsoever.

Maybe Young Master Wu Shuang was merely kindhearted and just didn’t want to easily negate anyone, right?

Anyways, since Young Master Wu Shuang surprisingly said so, then let’s continue watching again.

However, they still felt that the conclusion had already been decided. That Helian Wei Wei wouldn’t win!

Maybe her luck was good, and she’ll pick up some clues.

However, wanting to pick out that one armament Young Master Wu Shuang personally made from among so many merely by relying on luck was far from enough!

The judging panel members gazed into the distance. Each of them had their own opinion of which one to select.

For the armament competition this time, only Young Master Wu Shuang knew the correct answer. Even they were not clear just which one of those in there was truly the one.

But looking at them based on their experience of so many years, that green jade long double-edged sword and the dark tortoise bow and arrow both possibly could’ve come from Young Master Wu Shuang’s hands.

Everybody knew Young Master Wu Shuang’s habits.

In general, it had to do with his person. The things he made also would generally appear delicately beautiful.

In terms of the external appearance, these two armaments actually corresponded well with Young Master Wu Shuang’s style.

It’s obvious that that girl genius, Helian Jiao Er, already was close to the answer.

We’d soon see which one she ultimately selected.

Compared to the dark tortoise bow and arrow, the green jade long double-edged sword was clearly more impressive, especially its sword hilt. It was made very delicately and even displayed a faint jasper color.

During the time the judging panel members were whispering to one another, Helian Jiao Er had already picked up an armament.

It’s the green jade double-edged sword!

Everyone was in an uproar, and acted as if Helian Jiao Er already was victorious.

In any case, the armament that she chose was indeed good. Regardless of whether it was the workmanship or its response to martial qi, both could be considered first class. Even Hei Ze also displayed a regretful expression. Wei Wei made her move too late. This time, maybe she’d already lost.

During the time Helian Jiao Er picked up the green jade double-edged sword, Wei Wei had only just picked up the first armament to examine.

Upon seeing this, Helian Jiao Er sneered and smugly glanced at Wei Wei, then returned to her own seat.

The majority of competitors also more or less already almost finished looking at the remaining armaments. They merely weren’t as fast as Helian Jiao Er.

However, what made them glad was that there was Wei Wei to help take last place. Therefore, even if there were some people among them who also didn’t understand armaments very well, they weren’t afraid.

So much so that when they passed Wei Wei, their gazes were filled with delight in another person’s misfortune.

But, Wei Wei’s head didn’t even lift up at all as her slender fingers used force...and banged banged twice!

The first armament had been examined!

Bang bang bang!

The second armament was inspected completely!

Her speed was very quick. There was indeed order within disorder as her slender fingers pushed while closing. Her movements seemed as if they’ve received specialized training and were a delight to watch.

From the time she picked up an armament and turned it on its side, to the time she deftly flicked the knife blade out and then closed it again. These movements from beginning to end, only took a few seconds.

In a flash, everybody was dumbfounded!

So much so that there was some disbelief as their mouths opened wide into the shape of an ‘O’!

When finally regained their wits, Wei Wei had already started to inspect the tenth piece of armament!

She leaned her body to the side and placed her head against the armament, nimbly and elegantly!

“What’s up with this good-for-nothing? Injected with chicken blood, or something?”

(TN: ancient times version of: Is she on steroids, or something?)

“How could she look through them so quickly! I’d actually used a whole lot of effort just to look through those few pieces of armaments up in the front!”

“You guys, look at the posture with which she picks up the armaments, doesn’t seem to be the same as ours.

Of course it’s not the same.

How could the posture that an ace secret agent from the 21st century use to pick up weapons be the same as an ordinary person.

For Wei Wei, the first thing she used to do when she got out of bed was to feel for her firearms, dismantle and then reassemble it while dressing.

Not to mention when she had to carry out missions, even while dodging incoming fire, she had to simultaneously replace worn out weapons.

This was merely inspecting some tens of armaments, how much time would she need.

When she was bored senseless during class, she would take out armament components to fiddle with and even had to find opportunities to evade the teachers at the same time.

Early on, she’d already trained her body to become like a craftsman’s pure fire. If she can’t even handle these things, how could she have opened an armament shop and be her own boss.

Bang!

When Wei Wei put down the last armament.

The complexion of people who originally left her far behind all changed.

They really haven’t seen anyone so fast!

How long had it been, and she’d already finished examining all of the armaments? !

Did she even use her eyes to look or not?

She just used her hand and moved around a couple of times like that?

Could that be considered an inspection?

The competitors couldn’t help but stop their own actions and stared blankly at Wei Wei who’d initiated the halt.

Not to mention the competitors who were amazed, even for the armament masters who were on the judging panel’s seats of honor, this was the first time they’d seen somebody inspect armaments in this way.

After all, in order to determine whether an armament was good or not, it was necessary to look at many aspects before a comprehensive judgement could be made.

Something like what Wei Wei did, truly was rarely seen!

“Young Master, look at this...” Among the judging panel members, one faced Jing Wu Shuang and looked over.

Within the teacup that was in Jing Wu Shuang’s hand, the tea water stirred up traces of waves as he spoke two words as gently as water. “Very fast.”

“It indeed is very fast.” Somebody interjected into the conversation. “However, when inspecting armaments the way she has, it’s very easy to make a mistake. It’s not necessarily a good thing to be too fast. More often than not, one can miss a whole lot of details.”

Yuan Ming also knew this line of reasoning. He raised his brows as he said. “Girl, maybe you should inspect them one more time before deciding.”

“No need.” Wei Wei’s fingers turned then held up an armament from the tabletop. “It’s this one.”

Everyone turned towards the sound of her voice. After seeing the thing in her hand, hissing sounds sprung up everywhere!

Just a moment ago, when they saw such beautiful movements from her, they even thought that she’d choose some outstanding armament.

At the minimum, it should be something comparable to Helian Jiao Er’s dark tortoise bow and arrow.

They didn’t expect that she’d surprisingly chosen a black lacquered umbrella. That umbrella handle also wasn’t one of the two colors gold or silver but was instead the most common black color. Looking at it from a distance, there was even a kind of worn and shabby feeling.

First setting aside and not mentioning other things, merely this armament’s outer appearance would already lower its value. It totally did not have the looks of a first-rate armament.

In addition, more than any other factor, a good armament was carefully chosen for its attack power.

An umbrella?

Bah! Did she think we’re looking for an article for daily use, for protection from the rain?

The sound of guffaws erupted below the stage, the aura of ridicule was especially dense. “This is the result Miss Helian having difficulty choosing, so she set off from a practical point of view. However, doesn’t the color of that umbrella actually match well with that face of Miss Helian’s. They’re the same shade of black, hahahaha.”

Helian Jiao Er also almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud. However, she didn’t forget that she was in front of people, so she depressed the corners of her mouth as much as possible and looked to be totally sympathetic as she said. “Oldest Sister, how about you first choose another armament. If you choose this umbrella, it’d certainly be a waste of such a diligent and brilliant performance you put on just now, you know?”
