"Ding ~ Ding ~ Ding …"
The white-robed girl's face was red as she lowered her head. She extended a pair of slender and pale fingers and began to play the zither.
In an instant, it was as if a clear spring was flowing. Three gentle and clear zither notes rang out.
The cultivators could vaguely see a clear spring flowing in the air, causing their hearts to feel refreshed.
Three notes!
The zither sounded three notes!
Eldest Young Miss Zhao Yue's eyebrows instantly rose. The rest of the cultivators looked at this scene in shock.
The white-robed girl's face turned even redder as if she sensed the intense attention of the people around her. She looked as if she wanted to find a hole to hide in. She hurriedly walked down from the edge of the stone platform.
Chu Chen's eyes were filled with praise. Under his soul scan, this white-robed girl's cultivation talent was shockingly strong.
"It's about time. Let me do it."
Duan Qing, who had been standing at the side, glanced at the remaining three cultivators and walked to the side of the stone platform to sit down.
All the cultivators were as curious as Chu Chen. The zither keeper had stepped up himself. Would he be able to play the zither?
Ouyang Yun, who was dressed in a yellow robe, sneered without restraint.
"Hahaha, so you also have to take the test! I thought you had received the zither master's instructions and came here specifically to test us. You don't need to take the test to qualify! "
"A zither master treats everyone equally. Anyone who wants to learn the zither under her name must take the test. I am no exception."
Duan Qing's expression was calm. He didn't care about Ouyang Yun's mocking smile.
He sat upright and gently stroked the zither. His expression was especially gentle, as if the zither was a peerless beauty that needed to be carefully protected.
"Tsk tsk, what a pretentious act."
Ouyang Yun, who was acting wildly, kept complaining. Duan Qing ignored him. His expression was still calm. He waved his hand and a bright zither note rang out. It pierced through gold and cracked stone. It tore through the void like a sharp arrow. It was incomparably fierce.
However, after this zither note, there was no second note.
Duan Qing paused for a moment. He couldn't hide his disappointment.
"Hahaha … I was still talking about other people's talents. I thought you could at least play eight to ten times. Turns out you can only barely pass!"
Ouyang Yun laughed so hard that her tears were about to flow out.
Duan Qing's expression became even more serious as he walked down the stone platform with a straight face.
At this time, a red-robed male cultivator walked up to the stone platform. This man was extremely handsome, and his fair face looked even more gentle and beautiful than a girl.
The moment they saw him, a look of jealousy appeared on the faces of the young female cultivators.
In terms of looks alone, this man was actually better than all the girls present.
When this handsome man played the guqin, two cold guqin hearts suddenly burst open. There seemed to be ice blades whistling in the void, and the cold wind was bone-chilling.
After the two notes, the guqin stopped moving.
The beautiful man sighed faintly and walked down again.
At this moment, Ouyang Yun stepped forward, shaking his head repeatedly. "You mortals … What talent? What Dao of the zither? You're all mistaken! None of you have seen through the secret of this zither! "
The cultivators looked at this arrogant yellow-robed cultivator with a puzzled expression. They didn't know if he was crazy or a true genius.
Ouyang Yun walked to the edge of the stone platform and sat on a stool beside the platform. Both of his hands were pressed on the keys at the same time.
"Too weak, too weak. You're all too weak. I'll let you see what a true expert is. Especially that little brother Ling Xi at the end. Learn from him."
Ouyang Yun glanced arrogantly at Chu Chen and raised his hand.
In an instant, a muffled clap of thunder exploded in the air.
On the gentle guqin, there were rumbling sounds, like rolling thunder in spring. The explosion caused everyone's expression to change!
Four notes!
There were a total of four notes on the guqin!
This Ouyang Yun looked extremely arrogant and domineering, but his talent in the art of the zither was actually able to play four notes, surpassing everyone present!
Duan Qing's face darkened. This Ouyang Yun was his old enemy, and he had always been at odds with him.
Now that the result of the zither test was that guy firmly suppressing him, it was hard for him to accept.
With a dark face, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then our test is over …"
"Mm … I haven't played yet."
Chu Chen raised his hand and walked towards the guqin.
Duan Qing nodded, allowing Chu Chen to speed up. Ouyang Yun, the one and only sovereign of the heavens and earth, smiled and said, "This little brother from Spirit Stream, you have already seen the strongest performance. I advise you not to waste any more time. Playing the ancient zither is also related to a cultivator's cultivation talent."
Chu Chen ignored him and sat in front of the guqin.
"Young man, your cultivation is only at the Ling Xi realm. Obviously, your talent is limited. Even if you try, it's a waste of time. Why bother?"
Ouyang Yun looked at Chu Chen with pity.
Chu Chen's expression was indifferent. He stroked the strings of the guqin with his palm, and a clear sound suddenly rang out.
The sound of the guqin was neither high nor low, but it was very clear, causing everyone's eyes to focus on it.
So many cultivators at the Ling Xi realm, the peak of the Ling Xi realm, and even a half-step Ling Xi realm cultivator went up to try, but none of them made a sound.
This kid at the Ling Xi realm actually had such talent?
He actually made a sound?
Even the guy with the weakest cultivation could make a sound. Was this a slap to the faces of many cultivators?
The group of great cultivators were very stunned and unwilling. Ouyang Yun frowned. This was not right!
After playing the guqin, Chu Chen was still expressionless, as if he was thinking about something. He raised his hand and gently played again.
Suddenly, a loud and sharp guqin sound burst out, like a sharp sword being unsheathed, deafening everyone.
Two guqin sounds!
What kind of joke was this?
This kid could actually make two sounds??
Everyone's expression changed greatly, and their eyes were shocked. Ouyang Yun clenched his fists.
"Wrong."
Chu Chen spat out two words.
Look, even this kid himself said that it was wrong. There must be a problem. The cultivators immediately became excited.
"That's not right. Why doesn't my playing sound good?"
As Chu Chen spoke, he raised his hand and continued to play.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
…
Chu Chen's hands continued to play. He seemed to not know how to play the guqin at all. The sound he made was sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
One moment, it was low and muffled, the next moment, it was loud and piercing, and the next moment, it became melancholic.
The chaotic guqin sounds continued to resound in the void. It was impossible to count how many times it had sounded.
How … how many times had it been?
The cultivators were going crazy. What kind of monster was this Ling Xi cultivator? How could he play so many times?!
They all looked at Chu Chen, who was playing the guqin with a distressed expression, and felt that the world had become unreal.
The arrogant Ouyang Yun was completely dumbfounded. His mouth was wide open, and he could not close it for a long time.
