Chapter 79.1
Editor: Jodi
Because the Thanaka skin shell was quite thick, Bai Jing observed the distribution of the cracks roughly, then turned the abrasive grinding wheel to the highest setting directly. Then he started to polish the rough stone along the window located near the ‘head’ of the pear-shaped rough stone.
And seeing Gu Yun unraveling the rough stone, the onlookers quickly moved to the right, standing just outside the cordon, eagerly stretching their necks to see, while those who couldn’t see the stone turned their attention to the large screen.
The sound of the abrasive grinding wheel buzzing filled the air, and Zhuo Hang, who was beside him, glanced at him and also quickened his pace.
Even though the bidding king had already experienced a collapse in bet, Zhuo Hang didn’t believe he would lose.
Because the cracks on A02 were enough to shatter the jadeite within the rough stone, which would reduce its value greatly!
So he still had a chance!
As long as Gu Yun’s rough stone collapsed more severely, with Gu Yun’s reputation, people’s attention would be focused on him, and the bidding king’s outcome would become secondary.
Thinking this way, Zhuo Hang suddenly felt motivated.
Then the sound of the grinding wheel polishing the stone rose and fell, making a sharp noise in the quiet stone unraveling area.
Bai Jing’s movements were quick, because in less than a minute, he had turned a window the width of two fingers into a complete polishing surface the size of an adult’s palm.
He sprinkled some water on it, and the bright sunny green emerged from the clean, glass-like transparent texture, appearing increasingly vivid and green.
[It’s a rise in bet!]
[Wow, God Yun’s movements are so fast!]
[That’s right, this is exciting!]
[This is just the beginning. He’s only polished a large window.]
[Wait until he polishes to the first crack. It’ll collapse soon enough!]
[Ha, are those who bet on the Yuan family getting angry?]
[Yo, he’s getting anxious, he’s getting anxious—]
[Incompetent rage.jpg]
Gu Yun’s fans sneered coldly. Haha, soon not only will your bets lose, your faces will be slapped swollen.
However, they refrained from leaving comments like ‘God Yun will definitely have a rise in bet’ to avoid giving others a handle against them.
Just in case…
But no matter what happened they would use their own strength to save public opinion. With them around, no one could hurt God Yun!
The grinding wheel continued to spin, countless fragments falling like a fine rain.
After five minutes, the jadeite had already been unraveled from half of the ‘head’ of the pear-shaped rough stone. It was hemispherical in shape, uniform in color and didn’t have a trace of impurity, exhibiting a sunny green glass-like luster consistent with the window.
At this moment, the abrasive grinding wheel also reached the first crack on the rough stone.
This crack was about seven or eight centimeters long, appearing quite deep, with noticeable rust and discoloration at the opening.
And on both sides of the crack, there was a distinct weathered layer of a certain thickness which was called a ‘wedged skin lock’, because it was similar to and outer skin.
Although this type of crack looked intimidating, it mostly existed on the surface and didn’t penetrate the inside of a jadeite.
For professional Stone Gamblers, this type of crack wasn’t terrifying. What was, was the vicious crack in the middle of A02.
However for the general public, this large, open crack was quite alarming.
Because as the polishing approached this crack, many people held their breath, especially the viewers on Starnet.
Gu Yun’s fans were also incredibly tense, hoping that the crack wouldn’t extend into the inside of the jadeite.
While those who had bet on the bidding king had bloodshot eyes as they chanted on repeat, ‘Let the crack go in’, ‘Collapse’.
However Bai Jing’s hand that was holding the abrasive grinding wheel handle was still steady. He quickly polished away the skin near the crack, then sprinkled some water on it.
And the polished surface, after being washed with water, was lush green and still impeccably clean, capturing everyone’s admiration.
And after he turned on the strong light and shone it on the inside, the crowd saw the pure texture and sunny green color that came from within, the jadeite completely intact without a single crack on it clearly on the enlarged screen!
[This is impossible!]
[How could such a big crack just disappear?]
[No, the crack must be on the other side!]
However just as this person finished saying this, Bai Jing flipped the rough stone, polished off all the skin on the side, and shone a strong light on it—
[Hahaha, instant face slap!]
[I’m dying of laughter, this made my day!]
[God Yun never stops slapping faces.]
[Slap, slap, slap, ah, this feels so good—]
The person who had just spoken never came online again, and the barrage was quiet for a while, as no one dared to make any unfavorable comments about Gu Yun at this time, lest they be mocked to death.
However what made them even more desperate was that Zhuo Hang was still polishing out white cotton!
The blue-glowing laser knife cut down the last third of what was left, however there was still no sign of green at the cut surface!
“Sigh, the bidding king has collapsed completely.”
“The loss must be over a hundred million.”
“The Yuan family is really in for a miserable loss this time—”
And seeing the forty kilograms of waste material with fibrous white cotton on the stone platform, the expression on the face of the head of the Yuan family turned especially ugly.
This was far from what he had expected. He unexpectedly actually didn’t gain any fame nor fortune.
In that case, he had to capture Gu Yun today!
As long as he captured Gu Yun, he would become the ruler of the entire Empire in the future! And everyone would have to bow down to him!
So compared to the great things his Yuan family planned to do, the small loss of the bidding king being a collapse in bet was insignificant.
Thinking this way, the old man’s expression softened a bit.
He glanced at Gu Yun, then sat behind Zhuo Hang calmly and closed his eyes to rest.
