Chapter 309: Chapter 309: The Battle Begins (4)

The competition had already seen three matches, and the fact that no one was able to gain a clear advantage made Gu Siqing’s complexion terrible. She coldly ordered Ah Chen to move up the fourth piece of raw material. This was the one she was most satisfied with, originally intended to be her trump card, but the stalemate made her impatient, so she brought out this treasure directly.

Meanwhile, An Yiqing gave Zhang Yusheng some detailed instructions, and then she glanced inadvertently at Gu Siqing’s side. She shouldn’t have looked because when she did, she almost suffered an internal injury.

The appearance and quality of that piece of raw material were indeed excellent, truly top-notch. And within the raw material, there indeed lay jade, and not just any jade, but top-quality jade. Gu Siqing’s perception of jade was indeed no idle reputation, but... An Yiqing secretly pursed her lips and smiled, well, she decided to silently enjoy the drama.

Ah Chen, following Gu Siqing’s instructions, took the Stone-Cutting Machine and cut at the marked black line!

All could see a huge cut surface on that large piece of raw material, about the size of a water barrel opening, surrounded by a thin layer of stone skin, and the rest was completely filled with black!

Ma Tianci, who had been sitting calmly on the side, suddenly stood up, took hurried steps forward, and looked at the piece of raw material in disbelief. He exclaimed, "Is this... top-quality Ink Jade?!"

As the Chairman of the Xuanjin Yu Jade Association, Ma Tianci, having seen much and knowing a lot, could be surprised only by a few things, such as the time An Yiqing revealed a giant Emperor Green, and now, this time.

Ink Jade, unlike other jade, is very rare. If the Glass-type Imperial Green, Blue Elf, Fortune, Prosperity, and Longevity are considered top-quality jade, then Ink Jade and Red Jade are the kings among top-quality! The Ink Jade mentioned here is not the common variety found in the market; it’s a mineral stone that had formed over countless years of weathering, dense and incredibly hard, completely black with a rich and glossy color, a rather legendary type of jade.

No wonder even the always composed Ma Tianci was frazzled by Gu Siqing’s revelation of such Ink Jade.

The words from the Chairman of the Jade Association were naturally the most authoritative. As soon as Ma Tianci finished speaking, a series of gasps echoed throughout the hall.

This was Ink Jade, valuable to witness! The best of the best, rarer even than the Glass-type Imperial Green!

Everyone rubbed their eyes, stared wide-eyed, and craned their necks, eager to take a closer look. Such top-quality jade was hard to come by even in high-end jade stores, so they naturally wanted to take full advantage of this opportunity to feast their eyes!

Seeing everyone’s hungry expression, Gu Siqing finally felt a sense of fulfillment. When she first saw this piece of raw material, she felt that its aura was different from the past, and that rich sensation made her heart flutter. She immediately decided that she had to get her hands on it! Fortunately, she finally got it after paying five times the usual price at auction!

She turned to look in An Yiqing’s direction, expecting to see the girl’s envious eyes, but to her surprise, An Yiqing only left her with a perfect view of the back of her head!

An Yiqing had completely ignored her! She was indifferent to both her provocations and her accomplishments!

This realization wiped out Gu Siqing’s previous good mood. She sat there with a cold face, wishing the rage in her eyes could materialize and incinerate the back of An Yiqing’s head!

As her anger became increasingly uncontrollable, the murderous aura surrounding Gu Siqing also began to spread toward An Yiqing. Just then, Gu Siqing suddenly felt a bone-chilling gaze pierce her skin like a cold blade, causing her to shudder involuntarily!

She jerked her head up, her eyes filled with alarm as she looked toward the source of the gaze. Upon identifying the person, her steps became frantic as she stumbled backward!
