Chapter 82 - Format Of The Rules
"Senior Sister Yalan, who are you talking about?" Zilang Mu could not hold back his curiosity as this was really something he did not wish to hear. No, he was afraid to hear.
"Oh.." Yalan Na mused for a moment and answered, "Junior Zilang, no need to know it. It's not that important anyways."
"Not important?" Of course, Zilang Mu did not buy this excuse! It was already clear as the sky that this was something that hold a very important part in Yalan Na.
He was very displeased at this moment. However, he did not dare to show it. All he needed to do is know who's that man was and shame him to prove that there was no better than him!
Senior Sister Yalan is only mine. Only mine! —Zilang Mu claimed in his heart.
Yalan Na only smiled. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting tense between the high elder and Zilang Mu, Shao Gan interfered, "Alright. The competition is about to start. Please keep the matters for later."

20 minutes later.
A lady in white robe with red roses imprinted on it walked over the stage. Everyone's eyes were caught by this stunning scene at their front that almost all of the people who were talking left their mouths agape. This lady was probably in her 30's. She was bearing a womanly movements that could be expressed as mature. She walked over the stage at her natural pace with every steps sounding like a drop of water merging with the sea. Her beauty was not something that could be compared to Yalan Na and in fact, she was also paling if compared to Ran Haoyu's. However, this woman was so enticing with her voluptuous buttocks that were swaying sexily with each step and her figure that could be par with Yalan Na's!
Noticing the silence of the crowd, the lady in white robe could not help but chuckle, "What's the matter everyone?"
No one answered. Even the participants on stage who were still preparing could not utter a single word.
"I am your host for today's Painting Competition, Gyune Tyy!" She revealed a other wordly smile!
"Gyune Tyy! The.. wife of the Tyy Emperor?"
"That's right. There is no mistake. She is really Gyune Tyy!"
"To actually invite the Tyy Family itself here, the museum are going big this time! Such a pity that there were many empires who were not able to join."
"But how could the masters invite her? As far as I know, the Tyy Family is still in seclusion and only the emperor shows himself. In fact, even the emperor rarely appears."
"Being a host of this competition is something that could be said a good thing for Gyune Tyy. After all, this was really such an enticing title if earned. Besides, The museum is an independent powerhouse that could be said one of the pillars of the Tyy Empire, so they still needed to give the masters some face."
Hearing that there was a lot of whispers among the crowd, Gyune Tyy did not pay this any heed and just proceed in starting the competition to welcome them, "Everyone, welcome to our Painting Competition!"
A loud applause suddenly reverberated! Some cheers could be heard and some teasings that was aimed to Gyune Tyy herself!
She added, "Now, let's not wait any longer as I know everyone wanted to have this competition started. However, I must first state some rules of this competition."
"The Museum Masters changed some regarding about the rules."
Hearing this, the crowd and even the participants were puzzled.
"You guys might be confused now. So I will explain it."
"I know most of the people here even those from our respective empires know that the competition had elimination, preliminaries, semi-finals and the finals. This was the usual format of the competition. However, they decided to change this for today's Painting Competition since painting something could take at least couple of hours if fast and rushed. What more if it was dedicated? If we do the same format this time, we might even have to stay here for evening again. So our masters decided to change it to avoid hassle and take too much of everyone's time."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Indeed, the competition was something that took a lot of time. In fact, the last competition ended at past midnight when they even already stared at morning. This was really an inconvenient thing for everyone. So they understood their point.
"So now, the master decided to format the competition this way.."
"A battle royale!" She exclaimed gleefully.
The crowd was more puzzled this time.
Battle Royale? What the hell was that?
Seeing the puzzled expressions of everyone that were worse than a while ago, Gyune Tyy could not help but chuckle lightly, "Alright. It's this way."
"This is just simple. Every participants will have the privilege to create a single painting and everyone would be given three xuan papers. So it means that everyone has a maximum of three attempts to create the painting you recognized as best."
"Everyone should already be done with their works by the sunset. It was an hour before noon so everyone has enough time to create a painting!"
"After which, everyone will show their works with everyone here and will be judged by our Museum Masters with utmost fairness in judgement. So rest assured that there will be no bias comments and grading for anyone."
"And of course, everyone is free to use any painting techniques that you guys are comfortable with. And any realm of painting is allowed. Of course, as you guys were already Master Painters and part of the current younger generation, it should be at least not a Beginning of the Path Painting. It would be good if our participants could create Realm Light Paintings."
Everyone listened to this attentively as they did not want to misunderstood things later.
The participants were excited at this moment. This format of the competition was rather convenient for them. At the very least, they would not be left out even they lose since all of them would finish together! There was no more any eliminations and forced to watch on the sidelines.
Jin Rou was also happy by this. There was nothing inconvenient at all since he could just paint randomly and lose this competition.
Gyune Tyy excitedly asked everyone, "Are you all ready for the competition?"
Loud yeses could be heard filled with excitement! They were no longer could remain seated as they already wanted to have this start as soon as possible!
"Then let the Painting Competition officially begins!"
