The cities that Zhang Xuan visited previously didn't have an appraiser guild, so he didn't expect to see an Appraiser Hall here in Honghai City. Since that was the case, they should conduct appraiser examinations here as well.
With this, Zhang Xuan could consider taking the examination so that he could conduct appraisals as a source of income.
Otherwise, even if he knew that the Soulless Metal Humanoid was here, he would have no money to buy it.
If anyone else were to know of his thoughts, they would definitely fall speechless.
Even though appraisers weren't part of the Upper Nine Paths, their examination was publicly known for its difficulty. Every appraiser would have to spend decades of their lives dedicated to the study of treasures before they could gain an in-depth understanding of the subject required to pass the examination.
