"Zhang Shi has never come into contact with the Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy, so he isn't familiar with the characteristics of the Brush of Heavenly Impartation. Even though his Soul Depth is high, it's unlikely that he'll be able to emerge victorious!"
"Song shi must have made use of this to challenge Zhang Shi. This is probably the reason why he chose to end Zhang Shi's undefeated streak!"
"As expected of a quasi 8-star master teacher. None of them are easy to deal with. It seems like he has already seen through Zhang Shi's flaws, and that's why he chose to challenge him …"
…
After waiting for a while longer, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation still remained motionless. At this point, the crowd below could no longer hold themselves back anymore.
Even though the Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy was a type of Impartation of Heaven's Will, it was much more difficult to master. Many master teachers with high Soul Depth and formidable impartation would find it difficult to make the Brush of Heavenly Impartation write on their first try. This was probably the case for Zhang Shi.
"Benefactor, Zhang Shi …"
Elder Xu asked worriedly.
The reason why their benefactor's Young Master was challenged was because he wanted to save them. If he were to be punished because of this, they would be unable to rest easy.
"Don't worry. Our Young Master … has never lost to such a challenge before!"
Sun Qiang waved his hand nonchalantly.
It had been nearly a year since he met the Young Master, and he had weathered countless storms together. How could he possibly lose to such a minor challenge?
Just as Elder Xu was filled with confidence, the Young Master on the stage suddenly stretched his back lazily and took a few steps back.
"I'm done …"
After saying those words, Song shi fell silent.
Sun Qiang's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
The Brush of Heavenly Impartation hadn't even moved, and the Brush of Heavenly Impartation was already done … Wasn't the Young Master supposed to be invincible?
Could it be that he had no choice but to admit defeat?
Seeing Song shi's actions, Yao shi's face warped in astonishment. "Zhang Shi, there's no time limit to the Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy.
"I know," Zhang Xuan replied with a wave of his hand. "After saying so much, I should be able to defeat him, right?"
"Defeat him?"
Yao shi nearly choked on her saliva.
The Brush of Heavenly Impartation hasn't moved since you started speaking, as if it's asleep … How can you possibly defeat him?
"He hasn't even written a single word yet?"
Song shi was also stunned for a moment before he sneered coldly.
Considering how the other party was able to make all of the master teachers in the Qingyuan Empire Mingshi Tang Pavilion acknowledge him as their teacher and successfully crash their pavilion, it was likely that the other party's Soul Depth had reached a level that was on par with his. He had been worried that the other party's Soul Depth would exceed nine words, but from the looks of it now … he had been worrying for nothing!
If he had known that Zhang Xuan was such a noob, he wouldn't have wasted his mental fortitude to write the ninth character!
What a waste!
"Teacher Yao, the results are out. You saw it with your own eyes, and you were the one who brought the Brush of Heavenly Impartation here.
Song shi clasped his fist and stepped forward.
"This …" Yao shi Tian hesitated.
A Master Teacher Duel was only conducted when there was a conflict between two master teachers. Once one of them admitted defeat, the victor would be able to kill the other party without being punished!
Zhang Xuan had just killed the Qingtian Emperor and saved the lives of so many people in Qingyuan Conferred Empire. If they were to punish him too harshly, it would be hard for the headquarters to justify their actions.
"May I know what kind of punishment Song shi will mete out to Zhang Shi after winning the duel? He has just made a huge contribution to the human race, and he is also a super genius who has successfully crashed a pavilion … "
Song shi paused for a moment before reminding Yao shi Tian, "Teacher Yao, don't worry.
I won't kill him. However, I won't let him off so easily for insulting my dignity and tarnishing my reputation! I'll cripple him and make him suffer the same fate as me. After that, I'll destroy the spirit of that cauldron who injured me, and I'll make her apologize publicly! "
Song shi declared savagely.
"Make him suffer the same fate as you?" Yao shi Tian's lips twitched.
Even though she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she could tell that that fellow had been reduced to a eunuch by Zhang Xuan's cauldron. If Zhang Xuan suffered the same fate as him, wouldn't he have to castrate the other party as well?
However …
As harsh as this condition was, as long as one could purchase the Grand Intermittence Pill, one would still be able to recover. At the very most, one would just have to suffer some pain and humiliation.
As for the destruction of the cauldron's spirit and the public apology, that was even simpler.
"Alright then!"
After a moment of contemplation, Song shi turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "Zhang Shi, victory and defeat are common occurrences in battle. As long as you don't lose your life, there's always a chance for you to make a comeback in the future …"
After saying those words, Song shi shook his head and scanned the surroundings. With a resounding voice, he said, "Alright, I'll announce the result now …"
But before he could finish his words, Zhang Xuan suddenly waved his hand and said, "Yao shi, isn't this not the end yet? Why are you announcing the result now? "
"Not the end yet? The Brush of Heavenly Impartation didn't manage to write a single word under your Impartation of Heaven's Will. The result is already clear, so how can you say that it's not the end yet? "
Song shi sneered coldly.
With so many witnesses, and Yao shi standing before him, there was no point in denying it.
"Isn't there a time limit to the Impartation of Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy? The Brush of Heavenly Impartation hasn't moved yet, but that doesn't mean that it won't move later on … "Zhang Xuan shook his head.
"Later on? You must be joking! The Brush of Heavenly Impartation of Heavenly Impartation is already over, and it hasn't moved yet. As a Seven Star Master Teacher, can't you just admit to your loss? "
Song shi sneered coldly.
"It …" Zhang Xuan shook his head. Just as he was about to explain, Yao shi suddenly sighed deeply and said, "Zhang Shi, the fact that the Brush of Heavenly Impartation hasn't moved yet means that you've already lost …"
"Lost?" Zhang Xuan sighed. "Yao shi, can't you tell?"
"Tell what?"
Yao shi frowned.
"Since you can't tell …"
Helpless, Zhang Xuan glanced at the motionless Brush of Heavenly Impartation in displeasure and bellowed, "Hurry up and write! What are you playing dead for?"
After listening to the lecture for such a long time, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation was still playing dead in the air.
"The Brush of Heavenly Impartation has been nurtured by countless master teachers of the Mingshi Tang School, and it carries the will of a teacher within it.
Hearing Song shi scolding the Brush of Heavenly Impartation, everyone was stunned. Yao shi's vision darkened, and she nearly fainted on the spot.
The Brush of Heavenly Impartation was incomparably prideful. Even Pavilion Master He didn't dare to speak to it in such a manner. Yet, this fellow actually dared to scold it …
Putting aside writing, it was already a blessing that it didn't draw on its face …
Clutching her forehead, Yao shi was at a loss as to what to do when a commotion suddenly broke out beneath the stage. Countless people shrieked in agony, as if they had seen something inconceivable.
"What's wrong?"
Frowning, Yao shi raised her head to take a look, and with a single glance, she froze on the spot.
The motionless Brush of Heavenly Impartation suddenly began moving. Its golden color turned white, and a gentle glow seemed to be emanating from it.
Following which, the spiritual energy in the air swiftly gathered. In the blink of an eye, all of the spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred li was drawn in and infused into the Brush of Heavenly Impartation.
Geji! Geji!
Under the immense influx of spiritual energy, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, and a crisp sound echoed in the air.
"This … This is …"
Yao shi clenched her fists tightly as her body trembled. Disbelief surfaced on her beautiful face. "The Brush of Heavenly Impartation … achieved a breakthrough?"
While the Brush of Heavenly Impartation wasn't a Saint-tier artifact, it was still divided into different grades. It was just like the difference between wool and weasel hair.
The difference between a Brush of Heavenly Impartation nurtured by a Nine Star Master Teacher and an 8-star Master Teacher was bound to be vastly different.
The Brush of Heavenly Impartation that Yao shi was using was only an ordinary Brush of Heavenly Impartation. It wouldn't be too difficult for it to compose the Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy of an 8-star low-tier master teacher.
Under normal circumstances, for the Brush of Heavenly Impartation to achieve a breakthrough, it would require the nourishment of a high-tier master teacher. But … how could it achieve a breakthrough after just a short lecture from Zhang Shi?
Not to mention, it caused such a huge commotion.
Kacha! Kacha!
Just as Yao shi was at a loss for what to do, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation suddenly moved and began writing swiftly.
In the blink of an eye, lines of words appeared before everyone's eyes.
"One, two, three … 87 … It's writing too quickly! I can't even count it!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
"Look! It's writing too quickly! It's starting to smoke!"
Someone exclaimed.
"Smoke?"
With an awful look on his face, Song shi hurriedly turned his gaze to the sky and saw the Brush of Heavenly Impartation not too far away. The speed at which it was writing was so fast that it was leaving a trail of white smoke behind it.
Back when he was using the Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy, the other party had been unable to move at all, as if he was suffering from constipation. Yet, this time around, it was as if he was venting a flood!
The difference can't be that big!
"This is … the Heavenly Resonance Beacon Smoke!"
Unlike the shocked crowd, Yao shi Tian gulped down a mouthful of saliva and spoke with a trembling voice.
"Heavenly Sound Wolf Smoke?"
Song shi frowned. Even though he was a quasi 8-star master teacher, he had never heard of this name before.
"Even though the Brush of Heavenly Impartation cherishes its words as if they are made of gold, and it rarely moves its brush. However, as soon as it encounters a formidable Impartation of Heaven's Will, it will start writing as if a puff of smoke … In other words, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation is capable of recording all of the profundities that a master teacher has imparted to it …"
Yao man Tian's fists turned white.
"In full detail? How … how is this possible?! " Song shi could hardly believe what he was hearing. "No matter how accurate the Impartation of Heaven's Will is, there are bound to be some words that don't carry much meaning, so the Brush of Heavenly Impartation won't record them down …"
No matter how perfect a lecture was, no matter how good a teacher was, it was impossible for every single word to be meaningful. There were bound to be some useless words in between. No matter how formidable the Impartation of Heavenly Impartation was, it was not a secret manual where every single word had to be carefully considered.
This was precisely the reason why the Brush of Heavenly Impartation of Mentor's Calligraphy was selective in how it recorded words.
"There are indeed many words that don't carry much meaning, but … there's a possibility. Have you forgotten about it?"
Yao man Tian asked with a bitter smile.
"A possibility?"
Song shi was stunned for a moment before a thought suddenly struck him, and his body stiffened like a wooden stick. "Is Yao shi referring to the Impartation of Heavenly Impartation of Heavenly Impartation of Heavenly Impartation?"
"Indeed. Only Impartation of Heavenly Impartation can produce the Heavenly Impartation of Heavenly Impartation!"
Yao man Tian replied.
"T-this … But he's only a Seven Star master teacher …"
Song shi stared at the Brush of Heavenly Impartation in disbelief.
As expected, the Brush of Heavenly Impartation continued to write faster and faster, leaving behind afterimages. At this moment, lines of words were floating in the air above the stage, devouring the spiritual energy that had just gathered, as if they would soar into the sky at any moment.
"This is way too exaggerated … It's impossible for me to stop!"
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Song shi felt as if he had just received ten thousand points of damage.
