“I think you should really consider this, if you defeat me, you’ll rightfully be the foremost amongst the younger generation on Antique Street.”

Xue Yingjie was somewhat unwilling to give up and continued to persuade.

“And then what?”

Tang Feng savored his tea, not taking the matter seriously at all.

“Then your fame will grow even bigger, and more people will come to you for appraisals, and you’ll make even more money. Don’t you want to earn more?” Xue Yingjie believed this was a given, why didn’t this guy care at all?

“Hmm, actually, I’m already quite wealthy? Did you see that Ferrari F8 outside? That’s my car. I’m so rich that I’m an appraiser entirely for the fun of it.”

Tang Feng had no concept of modesty as he boasted with an indifferent tone.

Xue Yingjie’s cheeks twitched, and he felt an urge to hit someone.

Isn’t this just too damn Versailles?

But what the other said wasn’t wrong, could a person who affords a car worth over five million not possess assets of tens of millions?

Surely that person wouldn’t need to worry about money anymore.

“Even if you don’t want to make money, don’t you want to be famous? As long as you can defeat me, your fame is sure to skyrocket.” Xue Yingjie still didn’t want to give up, continuing to cajole earnestly.

“I’m already quite famous now. Everyone on Antique Street knows me.”

“That’s not enough. You’ve only defeated Qi Maocai’s two disciples, who were nobodies to begin with and don’t prove anything. Only by defeating me can you prove your real strength.”

“Why do I need to prove my strength?”

“Because if you want to be the chief appraiser at Ya Garden, you must first demonstrate that you have the ability.”

Xue Yingjie stared at him intently, his expression very serious, “For an antique shop of Ya Garden’s caliber, the chief appraiser must be a master like Mr. Zhang.”

“If replaced by an unknown, Ya Garden would become the laughing stock of Antique Street. Do you think with your current fame, you qualify to be the chief appraiser at Ya Garden?”

Tang Feng was rendered speechless.

If it were based on ability, he certainly had the capacity to be the chief appraiser.

But when it came to fame, he indeed wasn’t ready to shoulder an entire antique shop.

This was also why Pei Tianyuan extended an olive branch to him yesterday, and when he requested to be the chief appraiser, the other party rejected him.

Ultimately, it was because his current strength and fame did not match.

If he wanted to smoothly take over as the chief appraiser of Ya Garden, he needed not only the recognition of Qin Yanan and Zhang Jicheng but also approval from his peers on Antique Street.

While he was deep in thought, suddenly a group of people walked in from outside.

Leading the group was Pei Tianyuan, the owner of Shengdingxuan Antique Shop across the street, accompanied by owners and appraisers from other antique shops on the street.

“Did you invite them all?” Tang Feng turned to look at Xue Yingjie.

“Yes, since it’s a contest for the top position amongst the younger generation on Antique Street, it’s only right that we invite our colleagues to bear witness. If you’re too scared to accept the challenge, you’ll just become everyone’s laughing stock.” Xue Yingjie continued to press.

“Is there really a need to take it this far?” Tang Feng truly didn’t understand why they had to go to such lengths when there was no deep hatred between them.

“Of course, there is a need. Since yesterday, there have been rumors that you’re stronger than me. So I’m here to prove to them that I am the first amongst the young generation of Antique Street, and no one can take this title from me.”

Xue Yingjie’s words resonated assertively, immediately drawing cheers from the crowd behind him.

“That’s more like it. A showdown between you two will also silence the critics.”

“Xue Yingjie is an outstanding figure among the younger generation in the antique world; if you want to take over Ya Garden, you have to get past him first.”

“The position of chief appraiser isn’t that easy to hold. Without everyone’s approval, even if Mr. Qin agrees, it’s no good.”

“We all have to maintain the credibility of Antique Street’s appraisers; not just anyone can become a chief appraiser…”

Tang Feng listened to the chorus of voices, cursing in his mind that they were sticking their noses into others’ business.

The chief appraiser succession candidate jointly approved by Ya Garden’s owner, Qin Yanan, and chief appraiser, Zhang Jicheng.

What business was it of this bunch?

Although that’s what he thought, these people had already stormed his doorstep, adopting a stance akin to the siege of Bright Peak by the six major factions.

If he still didn’t accept the battle, wouldn’t that be letting them look down on him?

Just then, Zhang Jicheng also happened to come out, first frowning at the crowd, then turning to him, “Feng, don’t worry about what they say. If you don’t want to accept the challenge, just refuse. No one can force you.”

Tang Feng smiled at his master and then slowly stood up, fixing his gaze on Xue Yingjie, “Fine, I accept your challenge. Tell me, how do you want to play?”

Xue Yingjie finally showed a smile, “Shouldn’t you have just agreed from the start? You’ve made me waste so much breath.”

He said, setting down the cloth bag he was carrying, “I have prepared three questions for you. As long as you can answer two of them correctly, I’ll admit defeat.”

The crowd surged forward, eager to see what three questions he had posed.

Then they saw Xue Yingjie take out a box of golden Phoebe wood.

The box was carved with patterns of phoenixes and peonies, the craftsmanship so fine it was irresistible.

Xue Yingjie opened the wood box, revealing a phoenix hairpin inside.

The main body of the hairpin was made of gold, with a phoenix-shaped head and adorned with jade stones, truly exquisite.

Based on the appearance of the hairpin, aging marks were evident, indicating it had some history.

Xue Yingjie held the phoenix hairpin and rose to his feet to address the crowd, “This hairpin was recently acquired by a friend of mine who claims it has quite a backstory.”

“Oh, what kind of backstory?” Pei Tianyuan asked with interest.

Xue Yingjie smiled, “Surely everyone has heard the story of Lu You and Tang Wan? Supposedly, this hairpin was the token of their love.”

Upon his words, everyone’s expressions changed.

All eyes were suddenly fixated on that phoenix hairpin.
