A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and Fang Yun's consumed talent energy was immediately replenished. The hall in front of him suddenly changed rapidly, turning into a square hall without any decorations. The space was sealed, and there were no doors or windows.
The wall in front of him was different from the other three. It was smoother, unlike the other three walls, which were bumpy. Moreover, there were 2,000 grids on it.
The grand voice sounded again.
"Hanlin First Hall, 'Sharpening the Sword Wall.' You have to use your sharp tongue and write 2,000 words on the Sharpening Sword Wall in front of you. During this process, demons and barbarians will appear one after another. If you write 3,000 words before being killed by them, you will pass Hanlin First Hall. "
The moment the voice finished speaking, Fang Yun saw a few key points in his mind and quickly summarized them.
"First, I'm a full 150 feet away from the Sharpening Sword Wall. This distance greatly reduces my control over my sharp tongue. It will be very slow to write 2,000 words.
"Second, the Sharpening Sword Wall is very hard. If I'm not careful, my sharp tongue will break, so I have to be slow. Once I can't hold on, I have to rest. I have no experience, and I'm used to using the powerful True Dragon Ancient Sword. I'm afraid my new sharp tongue will break halfway.
"Third, when demons and barbarians appear, I have to use battle poems to attack. I can't multitask here. Fighting will greatly slow down my carving speed. Killing demons and barbarians consumes too much literary courage or talent energy, and I won't have the strength to carve words. If I focus on carving words, I may be killed by them. Balance! How to find a balance between talent, carving, and fighting will be the key to the First Hall.
"Fourth, I have too many literary and military achievements. It's more than enough to pass tens of thousands of times. This Hanlin Palace specializes in finding the weaknesses and flaws of scholars. It's better to fail than to pass quickly. The purpose of Hanlin Palace is to find flaws and fill in the gaps. Being able to pass the First Hall and passing it perfectly are two different things.
"Fifth …"
Fang Yun quickly summarized in his mind. Then he spat out his sharp tongue and walked forward, wanting to get close to the Sharpening Sword Wall. In the end, he was blocked by an invisible force. His tongue could pass through, but his body couldn't.
"It seems that I'm not allowed to get close to the Sharpening Sword Wall."
Fang Yun commanded his tongue to rush toward the Sharpening Sword Wall. As he observed his surroundings, he discovered that there were no Demon Barbarians around.
Fang Yun hesitated for a moment, and many famous characters appeared in his mind. He had been practicing Liu Gongquan's characters all these years because Liu Gongquan's characters were thin and hard. They were not as thick and vigorous as Yan Zhenqing's, so no one would suspect him.
Now, after many years of tempering, he was both Xusheng and the Lord of Bloodlight. With his extraordinary experience, he wouldn't be doubted if he learned the Yan Style again.
Thus, Fang Yun used the sword of the tongue as a brush and began to write Yan Zhenqing's "Yan Qinli Stele". This stele was written by Yan Zhenqing when he was sixty years old. It could be said to be a great work, and it was also a necessary text for future generations to learn the Yan Body Style.
The inscription on this tablet was dignified and graceful, strong and robust. Ingenuity and clumsiness coexist with each other, and it was most suitable for engraving.
Most importantly, this was Hanlin Palace. The Saints were not allowed to peek, so even if the inscriptions involved ancient Huaxia, there would not be any problems.
"Secretary of the Tang Dynasty …"
This inscription was written by Yan Zhenqing when he was sixty years old for his great-grandfather, Yan Qinli. The inscription on the tablet was like history, recording the life of Yan Qinli and his descendants. It was a rare masterpiece.
Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy was known for its simplicity. The inscription on the tablet was even more robust, and the inscription had a historical rhythm. Fang Yun only wrote a few words, and a majestic aura spread out from the sword wall.
Fang Yun's lips curled into a smile. He didn't expect that using the sword as a brush to carve directly on the stone wall would make it easier for him to understand the true meaning of the Yan Style. Whether it was the composition of the words or the placement of the brush, Fang Yun instinctively felt that it was more convenient than using a brush. However, as a beginner in the Yan Style, there were many flaws.
Fang Yun slowly wrote, and a strange scene appeared in front of his eyes. An old man in his sixties was holding a brush and writing on the stone tablet. The tip of the brush entered the stone, and each word was deeply engraved. It was a miraculous sight.
Fang Yun suddenly understood. If there really was a Yan Zhenqing in the Saint Origin World, with his talent, writing strength, and calligraphy realm, he could really use a brush to enter the stone.
Suddenly, the sound of chaotic footsteps could be heard.
Fang Yun looked carefully and saw a Demonic Wolf General leading a hundred Demonic Wolf Soldiers rushing over.
"Awoo …"
The hundred Demonic Wolves howled at the sky and then rushed over.
Fang Yun was about to kill them when he changed his mind. After writing a word, he immediately chanted the "Song of Yi Shui" and "Sending Jing Ke", summoning the Assassin, the Hero on the White Horse, and the General on the White Horse.
Even without the enhancement of various treasures, the three Demonic Warriors were stronger than ordinary Demonic Commanders. Moreover, the three Demonic Commanders didn't start a massacre. Instead, they slowly circled around the Demonic Wolves so that the Demonic Wolves couldn't attack Fang Yun. At the same time, they wouldn't die too quickly.
With the three Demonic Warriors around, Fang Yun continued to write without any interference.
Fang Yun wasn't in a hurry. He didn't even want to pass the first hall. Therefore, he wrote very slowly and seriously. Not only did he have to understand the essence of the Yan Style, he also had to understand the content of the inscription.
After writing a hundred words, Fang Yun felt that the aura of the inscription had become heavier. It was very difficult for him to write. The Tongue Sword even trembled. If he continued writing, the Tongue Sword would definitely break.
Fang Yun immediately stopped writing and let the Tongue Sword rest for a while. This was the masterpiece of the head of the four regular script families, Yan Zhenqing. Once he mastered it, there would be some strange phenomena. It was normal for the Tongue Sword to not be able to take it.
At this moment, Fang Yun missed the True Dragon Sword very much. If he used the True Dragon Sword to write the "Yan Qinli Tablet", he would be able to write it smoothly.
However, Fang Yun's expression changed and the regret immediately disappeared.
"The True Dragon Ancient Sword has its advantages, but this Broken Tongue Sword has its advantages! Because this Tongue Sword is too broken, my control is poor. That's why I can understand the "clumsiness" in Yan Zhenqing's "clumsiness". If I use the True Dragon Sword, I might not be able to understand the true meaning of "clumsiness". Furthermore, the clumsier this sword is, the more flaws in my sword control and calligraphy will be exposed. The flaws that I usually can't even detect will be magnified thousands of times by this Tongue Sword. It's enough for me to discover! Good! "
Fang Yun thought of the key point and smiled.
Of the hundred Demonic Wolves, there were only thirty left. Fang Yun didn't let the Demonic Warriors kill them all. When he wrote three hundred words, new Demonic Wolves appeared after sharpening the sword wall.
A Demonic Wolf Commander led a hundred Demonic Wolf Generals. The enemy's strength increased by a hundred times!
This time, Fang Yun still didn't care. The three Demonic Warriors were enough to defeat them. He continued to write.
When he wrote a thousand words, a Demonic Wolf Marquis and ten Demonic Wolf Commanders appeared after sharpening the sword wall.
Fang Yun opened his mouth and recited the Hanlin war poem "Crescent Blade Travels in the Sky".
"Wild geese fly high in the dark moon. The Demonic King flees in the night. He wants to chase away the light cavalry. Heavy snow covers the bow and saber!"
As there was no heavy snow formed by the Third Realm "Wind and Rain Dream Battle", the power of this war poem was slightly weaker. However, it still condensed a powerful crescent blade. It flew close to the ground and heavily injured the Demonic Wolf Marquis.
"Crescent Blade Travels in the Sky" was one of the most destructive war poems in Hanlin Academy!
This Demonic Wolf Marquis and ten Demonic Wolf Commanders were enough to make a peak Jinshi helpless. It was enough to make the newly promoted Hanlin Academy flustered. However, Fang Yun was rich in experience. He wrote for a while and fought for a while.
