Master Gu's words immediately caused an uproar.

"What? Shi Tian cheated? No way."

"Shi Tian could never have cheated; I think it was Lie Tu cheated."

"Exactly, it was so obvious! I saw it clearly when Lie Tu pulled a piece of paper out from behind his back!"

He became agitated upon seeing the dwarfs watching.

The blue-robed dwarf couldn't help but shout.

"Quiet!"

"Listen to Master Gu's lecture."

Everyone then turned to Master Gu, eager to hear what this expert appraiser had to say.

The blue-robed dwarf also looked at Master Gu.

A possibility came to mind.

His narrow eyes lit up again.

He manipulated things behind the scenes because he accepted a bribe from Lie Tu.

Could it be...?

Is even Master Gu unclean now?

The blue-robed dwarf had a guess in his heart, followed by ecstatic joy.

He should have thought of it long ago. Lie Tu's father had extraordinary abilities, so he should have thought of attacking Master Gu, the most crucial person.

In this way...

The blue-robed dwarf could then accept the benefits without feeling guilty.

That Master Gu is truly hypocritical; he only showed up at the last minute, causing me to live in constant fear.

He was worried that Lie Tu couldn't win the game, he wouldn't get that valuable benefit.

Master Gu was an old dwarf with a full white beard.

His gaze fell on Shi Tian, and he said seriously, "As everyone knows, Shi Tian started learning Appraisal Technique late and only learned the basics. How could he possibly determine the quality of these three weapons? He must be cheating."

He saw the dwarves watching and fell into thought.

Master Gu continued, "These three weapons were all made by the appraisers in the seats. They are not only appraisers but also excellent blacksmiths. Therefore, Shi Tian must have stolen the appraisal results agreed upon by several appraisers before the competition, which is why he was able to make such a splash at today's competition."

"This master will absolutely not allow such a lowly person to become my disciple. No matter how hard he tries or how diligent he is, if his conduct is flawed, he is not qualified to be my apprentice, let alone an appraiser!"

Master Gu's words were extremely harsh.

After giving him a severe scolding.

Shi Tian was completely dumbfounded.

Why is this happening?

Why does the revered Master Gu seem so unfamiliar now?

He clearly did not steal.

However, Master Gu wrongly accused him of stealing the prepared appraisal results in advance based solely on conjecture.

He was simple-minded and had no idea that the Master Gu he had always admired had long been bought off by Lie Tu's Lineage.

Master Gu's gaze at that moment was unfathomable.

However, it is necessary to confirm that Shi Tian stole the answers in order to ensure that Lie Tu can legitimately become his disciple.

And.

To avoid future troubles, it is also necessary to drive Shi Tian to desperation and prevent him from becoming an appraiser for life.

It's because Shi Tian's abilities today are too impressive. If he were to actually become an appraiser, his achievements might even surpass those of Master Gu himself.

By that time.

What happened today will also be exposed.

Master Gu would never allow his reputation to be tarnished.

Even if he is a genius, his talent can only be stifled.

Lie Tu's father was arguably the most favored person by the Dwarf King, and was granted special permission to freely enter and leave Dwarf Realm and interact with the outside world.

Even the Master Gu had to rely on him.

At this moment, Lie Tu was overjoyed to see that Master Gu, whom his father had arranged, had also stepped forward.

He clasped his hands and smiled, "This disciple thanks Master Gu for his Perceive the Finest Detail. Furthermore, this disciple believes that a scoundrel like Shi Tian has disgraced the reputation of appraisers and should be stripped of his apprentice appraiser status, never to become an appraiser again!"

After saying that.

He turned to Shi Tian and said with a sinister smile, "A lowly dwarf is a lowly dwarf. You think you can turn the tables?"

Shi Tian clenched his fists tightly.

In the end, he couldn't defeat Lie Tu.

"Very well! Lie Tu is right. On behalf of all the appraisers in the Earth Spirit Main City, I hereby announce that, effective immediately, Shi Tian is stripped of his apprentice appraiser status. Do any of you four have any objections?"

The Master Gu was asking the four old dwarfs beside him.

All four shook their heads.

They followed Master Gu's instructions completely.

As the only appraisal master in the Earth Spirit Main City, Master Gu holds a supreme position among appraisers.

"Alright, since no one objects, let's decide on this."

Master Gu finished speaking.

This was tantamount to sentencing Shi Tian to death.

At this moment, Shi Tian was utterly speechless.

The dwarves watching dared not question Master Gu's words, simply because what Master Gu said did indeed have credibility.

They were just ordinary dwarfs.

Naturally, they don't understand the intricacies of the appraiser's work.

"Hahaha, unable to produce any evidence, yet accusing others without any investigation—is this the legendary Master Gu? It's truly laughable..."

Chen Ning stepped out from the crowd, a mocking expression on his face.

"Human Race?"

Master Gu remained silent, while the blue-robed dwarf beside him narrowed his eyes.

They were no strangers to the Human Race from the outside world, but at this moment, in the Dwarf Realm, and at the appraisal conference, a young Human Race ran over to question Master Gu.

That's just too much to bear.

"This is our Earth Spirit Race's appraisal meeting. When did it become the place of an outsider to question it?"

The blue-robed dwarf snorted coldly.

Shift the blame.

They call themselves Dwarf Race, but they have a more formal tribal name in front of other races.

Earth Spirit Race.

Children of the earth.

He possesses Earth-Element Essence Power.

"Regardless of whether I'm an outsider or not, I should at least be able to justify my actions. If you believe Shi Tian stole the appraisal results, then produce evidence, instead of having this one-man show here, listening to that so-called master in everything. You agree, Master Gu."

Chen Ning looked at Master Gu.

The latter's eyes flickered slightly, but his aura remained undiminished as he said, "He's not stupid; if he knew things were going to be exposed, he would have destroyed the evidence long ago."

"Brilliant! As expected of Master Gu, he remained calm under pressure and even managed to say such shameless things. Truly masterful!"

Chen Ning spoke with a smile.

This immediately made the dwarves watching realize the crux of the problem.

Yes, I had only been listening to Master Gu's conclusions.

They haven't presented any evidence at all.

Being pointed out by this human made them realize what was going on.

A glimmer of light gradually appeared in Shi Tian's previously lifeless eyes.

He felt the voice was incredibly familiar.

Oh, right!

It was the voice that had just transmitted through his mind.

Did my senior actually show up for me?

He felt a surge of emotion.

At this moment.

Seeing that many of the dwarves watching had been enlightened by Chen Ning, the blue-robed dwarf inwardly cursed and coldly asked, "Who are you? Master Gu is not someone you can question at will. If just anyone stands up and questions you, what authority will Master Gu have left?"

"I am Shi Tian's master. You have wronged my disciple. Do you think I have the right to question you?"

Chen Ning's voice turned cold, and he spoke domineeringly.
