The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

As she noticed the young lady's eyes lingering on a particular piece of paper for an extended period, Qian Duoduo was astonished. Could it be that someone truly created something remarkable?

This was indeed a rare occurrence. After visiting so many stations, they finally had a breakthrough, and Qian Duoduo couldn't help but smile.

The others, however, began to look uneasy. They could tell whether the paper belonged to them or not, and the young lady's prolonged attention to someone else's paper wasn't a good sign.

Those whose papers had been reviewed early on were especially disheartened, silently cursing her for her lack of discernment. How could she overlook their brilliant ideas with just a glance? This was a heavy blow to them.

Long Xuan, on the other hand, remained calm and composed. It was exactly as expected, nothing to get excited about.

After examining the paper for a long time, Qian Jinjing finally set it down and beckoned with her hand. A light orb immediately flew out from the room.

The light orb was purely a form of light, but it had visible eyes, making it undoubtedly a living creature.

Long Xuan looked at this natural-type Gu insect in wonder. He had heard that natural-type Gu insects had no physical form, and seeing it today confirmed the rumors.

He felt as if he had discovered a new world, his eyes filled with interest, marveling at the wonders of nature that could produce such bizarre creatures.

The light orb gently landed in Qian Jinjing's palm. She gazed at it silently. Without comparison, there was no harm. Others could easily develop a plethora of powerful abilities, while this little creature, familiar with its own power, had only managed to come up with an illumination technique.

"Where's your intelligence? I might as well call you 'No Intelligence' from now on!" Qian Jinjing couldn't help but mentally chide it.

She then transferred all the ideas from the paper into the light Gu insect's mind using her soul.

Its little eyes quickly showed a look of surprise, seemingly unaware that its abilities could be used in such ways and be so powerful.

Eager to try developing these abilities, Qian Jinjing lost interest in reviewing the remaining papers. She directly announced, "It's getting late. I'm going to announce the results."

"The winner of this round..." Qian Jinjing glanced at the name on the paper and raised her voice, "is Mr. Long Xuan. Who is Long Xuan?"

As soon as she spoke, the whole place erupted in an uproar.

The previously silent venue turned chaotic, filled with noise. The Stone King, worth ten million, had been won?

Faces were filled with shock, some with envy and jealousy, others with disbelief.

Qian Duoduo was also stunned, completely dumbfounded.

That was a Stone King worth ten million! Just given away like that?

This was far from what he had expected. He believed that the Stone King wouldn't be given away and that the young lady was merely using it to pique interest without any intention of actually giving it away.

Could someone’s idea truly surpass the value of a peak-grade Gu insect? That seemed impossible.

"Miss!"

"Say no more. Just do as I say." Qian Jinjing shot him a look, stopping him from speaking.

"I object! There are still many papers left unread. How can you be sure the winner is him? At least read my paper before deciding."

"That's right! His idea might be good, but without comparing, how can you be certain he's the best? This is unfair!"

"I object too! I demand to see what he wrote, to ensure fairness and convince us all!"

Most people lacked self-awareness and insisted on making a fool of themselves, not giving up until they were thoroughly defeated.

However, Qian Jinjing had no intention of revealing the papers to the public. With a glance, she signaled to Qian Duoduo, who quickly understood and loudly proclaimed, "Enough!"

"Our Qian Commerce Association's Integrity Gu ensures fairness. With the Integrity Gu, our young lady will always be fair and just."

"You might distrust the young lady, but surely you trust the Integrity Gu?"

With just this one statement, everyone was left speechless.

Indeed, the Integrity Gu was enough to settle the matter, silencing all doubts. In this world, the Integrity Gu had that kind of power.

After scanning the crowd, Qian Duoduo quickly approached Long Xuan.

He was astonished, remembering that this person had just arrived today, less than an hour ago.

In such a short time, he came up with something that impressed the young lady? He must be a genius!

What kind of ability did he come up with? How powerful could it be? Qian Duoduo was utterly shocked.

"Haha! Thank you, thank you!"

Long Xuan remained composed, having anticipated this outcome. There was nothing to be overly surprised about.

After acknowledging the crowd with a cupped fist salute, he eagerly approached the massive Stone King.

Seeing his slender figure, everyone was stunned. The winner was so young, a mere child. They had lost to a child, which was hard to accept.

Qian Jinjing's eyes briefly flashed with surprise upon seeing the paper's owner. She hadn't expected such peculiar ideas to come from a young person.

She had thought that someone with such profound insights would be an elderly scholar, not a young boy.
