Li Xiao Bai's expectations did not go to waste.
After he recited the famous poem, three people stood out.
A muscular man wearing a golden mask, his body was covered in a dazzling golden light.
An old man wearing a bamboo hat and holding a walking stick, green qi coiled around his body.
There was also a woman with a graceful figure, she wore a pink dress and a veil, after she recited the poem, countless light butterflies flew around her, it was a beautiful sight.
These three had created famous poems, they were on the same level as Li Xiao Bai's moonlit night.
Li Xiao Bai let out a sigh of relief inwardly: "This world has Gu worms that can assist in creation. Moreover, Gu Masters can extend their lifespan, they can gain more experience and accumulation in life. Thus, compared to Earth, famous poems are more likely to appear. "
On Earth, 'moonlit night' was a rare masterpiece. But in Profound Literature grotto-heaven, it could not be compared to others.
Including Li Xiao Bai, the four of them looked at each other in different directions.
The muscular man, the old man, and the woman all placed their gazes on Li Xiao Bai.
They had guessed and understood each other's identities, but Li Xiao Bai suddenly appeared.
"Who is this young man?"
"Even though he has talent, he is not very deep, he actually created a famous poem?"
"Hehe, an interesting young man."
Li Xiao Bai's teacher, Teacher Jiang, also saw his student's performance. He nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, Li Xiao Bai, it seems that you performed exceptionally well this time. Continue to work hard. "
There were no abnormalities, Li Xiao Bai successfully advanced and was transported out.
When he calmed himself down, he found himself in another venue.
"This is the fifth venue, scholars, please wait patiently." A voice entered Li Xiao Bai's ears.
Li Xiao Bai immediately understood: "So there are differences in advancement. The poems I came up with were enough for me to skip three venues and jump all the way to the fifth venue. "
"This rule is quite reasonable."
"But this way, all the Gu Masters who could reach here would have created famous poems. Among these people, half of them advanced, the pressure has increased by several times. "
Li Xiao Bai frowned as he looked around, he saw two familiar faces.
They were the muscular man and woman from before.
Noticing Li Xiao Bai's gaze, the woman nodded at him, her face behind the veil seemed to be smiling. But that muscular man was very arrogant, after taking a glance at Li Xiao Bai, he closed his eyes to rest.
There were only three of them in the entire fifth venue.
"I wonder which venue that old man has been promoted to."
"I'd better pretend to be resting."
When scholars compose poems, all of them try their best to come up with a good idea. Only he, on the other hand, was only looking for a suitable poem. This was too easy, and he needed to conceal it a little.
Li Xiao Bai waited in the fifth arena for a few minutes before the second round of the competition began.
He had more than twenty competitors in total, this made Li Xiao Bai feel a lot of pressure.
The topic of the second round was out. Two words — Travel. The time limit was still five minutes.
"Travel? This topic is the same as Spring. It's broad and easy to write, but it's difficult to create a masterpiece! "The burly man sighed in his heart.
The woman was thinking, "I'm not good at this topic. What should I do?"
Li Xiao Bai was also thinking: "Which one should I copy?"
He thought for a while, he felt that he could not find something that was too classic or the effect would be explosive, but he could not find something that was too inferior either. He was so close to failing and falling out of the fifth venue.
This made Li Xiao Bai feel troubled, it was not easy to grasp the degree of difficulty.
He understood himself, but he was not familiar with the others, he did not know what kind of poem he should use to win without being in the limelight.
"In the first venue, my method was a little inappropriate. I will not fight for first place this time. "Li Xiao Bai warned himself.
He waited patiently.
About five minutes later, a scholar composed a poem. Then, a few people started to recite their own poems, each of them shining brightly.
Li Xiao Bai heaved a sigh of relief, thinking: "It seems that famous poems cannot be casually composed. These people performed exceptionally well in the first round, this round should be considered normal."
Li Xiao Bai gradually had an idea, but he was not in a hurry to act, he was still waiting.
When the time limit was almost up, the famous poem that he had been waiting for finally appeared.
It was that muscular man.
He recited the poem 'Iron Horse Golden Spear', it was filled with battle intent, golden light surged around his body, it was as if there were cavalry blades and spears colliding with each other.
The second famous poem was that woman.
Her poem was graceful and gentle, it described a noble lady looking out the window, listening to the stories of travelers as she fantasized about her journey, it was an exquisite thought.
"Alright, it is finally my turn." Li Xiao Bai coughed, saying slowly: "Date blossoms fall from the cloth, the sound of horse carriages resounds from the south and north of the village, the old willow sells cucumbers. Drowned in wine, the road is long and sleepy, the sun is high and the man is thirsty for tea. Knock on the door and ask a mortal. "
This time, he was copying Su Shi's river sand.
After he finished reciting, be it the muscular man or the woman, they had a thought, they analyzed it inwardly.
"Good poem! The first part of this poem is a description of the scenery, the second part is a description of the emotions, it is very interesting. "
"Even though it is a description of the scenery, it uses sounds, it is different from normal scenery, it is very vivid. The second part is a description of the emotions, it is full of interest. Even though this young man is a Gu Master, he is humble and courteous, he does not barge into a mortal's house, he is indeed a gentleman, gentle and courteous. "
"Reading his poem, we can see his character. This young scholar is really not bad! "
The surrounding scholars looked at Li Xiao Bai with different gazes.
Li Xiao Bai let out a breath of turbid air, he pretended to be extremely tired.
"I should be able to advance in this competition. Not only that, I performed perfectly. I did not stand out too much, nor did I humble myself too much. "
Li Xiao Bai was satisfied inwardly. After a while, the time limit was up.
He was somewhat dumbfounded.
Most scholars did not manage to create a poem.
"In this world poetry competition, I will definitely give my best. If it is just an excuse, even if others don't say anything, I will feel ashamed of my own inferiority. "
"I tried my best, but I did not manage to create a satisfactory poem. Even if I fail, I will not regret it!"
"Being able to hear the famous poems of the three of you, this trip was not in vain."
"Haha, at worst, I will just drop to the first round and start again. Goodbye! "
Those scholars who did not manage to create a poem left in a carefree manner, while some scholars who managed to create a new poem had ashamed expressions.
Li Xiao Bai looked calm on the surface but he felt conflicted inwardly: "How can you all be so noble?"
Even though he advanced, he was in the limelight again. He was quite satisfied earlier, but to think that these scholars were so useless.
"Hmph, I overestimated them." Li Xiao Bai criticized inwardly.
Needless to say, he successfully advanced and arrived at the ninth round.
After waiting patiently for a while, everyone finally arrived. This time, there were even fewer people, less than ten.
Many of them were famous scholars, they were familiar with each other and greeted each other, they looked calm on the surface but were secretly nervous.
At this point, the pressure of the competition had increased by several times.
"I need to be steady this time, I cannot be in the limelight too much!" Li Xiao Bai clenched his fists as he warned himself.
But this time, his opponents performed very well, more than half of the Gu Masters created famous poems.
Finally, only Li Xiao Bai was left.
Li Xiao Bai looked nervous on the surface but he was calm on the inside, he recited the poem that he had prepared.
With a flash of light, his cultivation level rose to rank four, he even gained a new Gu worm.
This time, he had planned meticulously, the quality of the poem he chose was just right, he successfully advanced but he was at the bottom of the winners.
Just as Li Xiao Bai was feeling pleased with himself.
Puff!
Someone suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Clang.
Someone fainted on the ground.
The strong man's body shook as he sat down on the ground with difficulty. Meanwhile, that woman coughed for a long while, her face was pale as paper.
Only Li Xiao Bai was standing on the spot unscathed.
Everyone's gazes gathered on him again.
"This young man is very strong! So far, he has created three masterpieces in a row. "
"He is actually not injured, it is clear that he did not use his full strength when he created the poem earlier."
"Amazing! After the competition, I will definitely befriend him! "
Li Xiao Bai: "…"
He was speechless.
Oh heavens, are you all working so hard?!
Isn't it just creating poems, why do you need to work so hard?
He really wanted to act like he was vomiting blood, but this happened too suddenly, even if he wanted to act now, it was already too late.
