Only now did Wang Ye finally understand why this raw stone, at first glance, seemed so appealing, causing an impulse to purchase it with just a single look.

However, judging by the marks around the stone, it had been sitting here for a long time, yet no one had decided to buy it.

The reason was very simple.

It was just that the surface looked appealing.

But if one uses a magician's means to look inside, they would find the interior pitch black, like a pile of rubble.

The truly attractive part, which might have some value, is probably just a portion of the exterior.

"Sigh."

Seeing this, Wang Ye let out a sigh.

Just as Wang Ye was planning to leave and look at other raw stones.

Wang Ye's gaze returned once more to this raw stone.

And he carefully examined it several times more.

He turned to the nearby staff and said, "I'll take this piece of raw stone."

The staff was slightly taken aback.

They looked at Wang Ye with some surprise.

Seeing this, Wang Ye inquired, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing."

The staff hurriedly responded, then began to make preparations.

He simply couldn't tell Wang Ye that this raw stone had been here for a long time and nobody ever chose it?

Even some fourth-rank sorcerers, when first attracted by this raw stone, eventually decided to give up after a while.

But Wang Ye.

Had decided to take this raw stone directly.

It was simply beyond his expectation.

The magicians following Wang Ye also cast schadenfreude-filled glances at him.

They were people who had been wandering in the Divine Stone Workshop for some time.

This raw stone, looking so attractive, naturally caught their eyes first.

But why didn't they buy it?

It's because they realized this piece of raw stone was not as simple as it seemed.

Beyond the surface, it was filled with waste.

Not far away.

Ji Shen was also paying close attention to Wang Ye's side.

Originally, Ji Shen was somewhat anxious.

What if Wang Ye got lucky and picked a good raw stone?

But when Ji Shen saw Wang Ye choosing this piece of raw stone, he instantly felt he had worried too much earlier.

Wang Ye's level in the path of the magician was even worse than he had imagined.

Even this raw stone could attract Wang Ye.

Any fourth-rank sorcerer would probably see the shortcomings.

Yet Wang Ye was directly deceived by the appearance.

It's unclear how with Wang Ye's skill, he could say such a boastful thing just outside the workshop's door.

Ji Shen wasn't the only one who thought so.

A few magicians who heard Wang Ye's words also thought the same.

"Really?"

Initially, Wang Ye spoke those words making them think he had some level of skill, otherwise, how could he dare say such things.

But unexpectedly.

Wang Ye was just a rookie.

What skill?

He barely had any!

Even a third-rank sorcerer, Wang Ye probably had just barely passed the evaluation.

On this point, these magicians guessed correctly.

Wang Ye had indeed just passed the third-rank sorcerer's evaluation.

Before and after, it wasn't even a month.

Next to Wang Ye.

Hui Hui transmitted to Wang Ye: "Master, based on those methods you just taught me, I checked this raw stone. On the outside, it looks fine, but inside, there's practically nothing."

"Only the skin has some value."

When Hui Hui said this, she was somewhat uneasy.

After all, almost everything she knew in the path of a magician had been taught by Wang Ye.

Yet here she was, questioning Wang Ye's judgment in such a situation.

Unsure whether her thoughts were right or wrong.

She just felt that since she discovered the issue, she should inform her master.

What if the master was just nervous about the competition against a second-rank sorcerer, thus missing more intricate problems when choosing raw stones?

"Not bad."

To Hui Hui's surprise, Wang Ye was not angry upon hearing this, but gently patted her head, softly saying:

"The fact that you noticed this signifies that your level in the magician's path has improved a bit more."

"The reason why this raw stone has remained unselected by others for so long is that others think the same."

"But sometimes, even when you believe you notice the details, you're actually just deceived by the deliberately crafted details of the stone. Inside, there are more intricate parts you haven't discovered yet."

As Wang Ye spoke.

He began explaining carefully to Hui Hui.

As Hui Hui listened, she nodded thoughtfully. Soon, a look of sudden realization appeared on her face, and she gazed at Wang Ye with a bit of admiration.

Her master was truly amazing.

Looking around at others.

Their gazes towards her master were full of ridicule.

It must be because they hadn't noticed the deeper details that her master mentioned.

At this moment.

Hui Hui suddenly felt like an outsider, watching these uninformed people.

And she.

Was the only informed person aside from her master.

This feeling filled Hui Hui's heart with a small sense of pride.

She straightened up a bit.

Her face bore a slight expression of pride.

She lightly whispered to herself.

"These foolish mortals."

They surely hadn't noticed her master's mysterious qualities.

Otherwise, they would surely be deeply shaken by her master's mysteries.

...

The staff's pace was also quite swift.

He immediately directed several other staff members to help Wang Ye move the Xuanwu raw stone to the stone cutting area.

Moreover.

He glanced over at Wang Ye from time to time.

Then glanced towards Ji Shen.

And then back at Wang Ye's raw stone.

It seemed that even though Wang Ye had already paid, their hearts were still filled with some worry, a bit of unease.

As if fearing Wang Ye might regret and create a scene.

"This time, let them cut mine first!"
