"Arrow in the Stone" had a total of twenty words. Xun Long's poem quickly came to an end.
The Gyeongo people's enthusiasm reached its peak. They were all waiting for Xun Long to win the literary battle. They would definitely cheer at the top of their lungs to thank him for protecting the Xi Province and the Gyeongo Literary Name.
The elders of the Xun family, who were usually stern, were now smiling like flowers. Some of them were even considering the details of the celebration.
On the other hand, the people behind Fang Yun, except for Li Wenying, did not know that "Arrow in the Stone" was written by Fang Yun. Their faces were gloomy and their eyes were lifeless. Even the rabbit covered its eyes with its long ears, not daring to look at the final result.
"… Not in the stone edge! You have lost! " Xun Long finished reciting the poem and raised his chin high. He was like Fang Yun standing on top of a mountain, looking down on the ground. He was insufferably arrogant.
A white arrow of light appeared a foot in front of Xun Long. The arrow of light was getting brighter and brighter. It was about to fly out. The speed of "Arrow in the Stone" was so fast that even a Demon Commander could not dodge it, let alone a human High Scholar.
Fang Yun did not say anything. He only sighed softly and turned to walk towards the airship.
The spectating Gyeongo people were puzzled. What was going on? Xun Long's Arrow in the Stone had already appeared. Why was Fang Yun's back still facing Xun Long? Was he committing suicide? He would rather die than admit defeat?
"No!" A young High Scholar from the Xun family suddenly shouted in disbelief.
"Xun Long, run! Stop! "The Sheng Province Magistrate suddenly roared. His voice was so loud that it traveled 150 kilometers.
Those who did not know what was going on looked at Xun Long in surprise. They realized that Xun Long had a look of fear on his face. Even in the face of death, the nation's top scholar would not be so frightened.
Xun Long did not move. The white arrow of light in front of him was originally pointed at Fang Yun. However, at this moment, an invisible force caused the arrow to slowly turn around. Finally, the arrow was pointed at Xun Long's forehead.
After the arrow in the Stone had completely turned around, a strange thunderous sound exploded in the air. It spread millions of kilometers!
"Rumble …"
That voice was clearly not in any language, but everyone could hear the majesty and anger in it. It was the might of the blue sky, the wrath of the stars.
Tens of thousands of people gathered around the Xi State Academy of Arts. No one spoke. Even the chirping of insects and birds had completely disappeared.
Time seemed to have stopped.
Xun Long looked at the light arrow in front of him in horror. He wanted to dodge, but his body couldn't move. Even if he struggled with all his might, it was useless.
The fear in Xun Long's eyes slowly turned into despair.
The light arrow moved and pierced into Xun Long's forehead. The bright red arrowhead pierced through Xun Long's skull and appeared behind his head.
Blood dripped from the tip of the arrow.
Xun Long fell on his back and landed heavily on the ground. His body trembled slightly before he stopped moving.
Xun Long's literary palace collapsed rapidly. The remnant consciousness in the literary palace was still supporting his body, but it was getting weaker and weaker.
Under the night sky, Xun Long was facing the sky, and the light in his eyes was rapidly diminishing. His gaze was constantly changing. There was doubt, confusion, and anger. But in the end, it all turned into silent regret.
"So Fang Yun was right. Xun Zu didn't protect me …"
Xun Long's last bit of spiritual will activated the remaining talent. It turned into a sad and sad final sigh. In the end, he slowly closed his eyes and covered the last trace of light in his eyes.
A meteor streaked across the sky above Xi State.
The light shield that descended from the Sacred Temple disappeared. The Wen Battle was over.
Fang Yun won ten victories and suppressed a state.
The square in front of the Wen Academy of Arts was still quiet, and the only sound was Fang Yun's footsteps. He didn't turn around and instead walked steadily towards the skyship, leaving Gyeongo with his back view.
Almost everyone suddenly understood that the winner didn't need to celebrate because the Ten Nations would definitely cheer for him tomorrow.
Perhaps in the future, some people would forget the plot of today's Wen Battle, but no one could forget Fang Yun's back view at this moment.
His back view was even taller than the thousand-feet-long ship.
"He's already considered a gentleman for not standing in front of his opponent's corpse to celebrate." After an old man in the crowd said that, he turned around and left with his wooden staff.
It wasn't until Fang Yun stepped onto the skyship and disappeared from the deck that everyone realized that the Wen Battle had already ended.
"It turns out that 'Arrow in the Stone' was written by Fang Yun …" Everyone thought of the same sentence in their minds.
"Gyeongo lost the Wen Battle. The Xun Family has lost." The scholar of the Kong Family sighed softly and walked towards the skyship.
"The Xun Family will probably be closed for a year."
As Zong Wude followed, he sighed. "If Xun Long had won, he would have preserved the literary reputation of the Xun family and the Kingdom of Qing. It would have been a beautiful story. But first he was punished for his literary work, and then he killed the author of the Stone Arrow. He was punished by the Heavens, and his reputation is completely ruined."
"Fang Yun hid it from us so painstakingly. But thinking about it, other than him, it's hard to find a scholar who can write such a legendary battle poem. "
"The Xun Family probably hates Xun Ye to the core now. They just ran away to the Ten Cold Ancient Land. The remaining members of the Xun Family are miserable. Not only are they defeated, but the Xun Family's reputation has also fallen to the lowest point in a thousand years. Those who don't fight can only suppress their anger and contribute to the human race to make up for the Xun Family's mistakes."
"I heard that Great Teacher Xun didn't want to stop Fang Yun from becoming a Notre-Dame, but the other three brothers were against it, so he had no choice but to remain silent. This time, he was the most stable, so the elders of the Xun Family will most likely support him. If Great Teacher Xun can become the head of the family, perhaps this hatred can be resolved. "
Mo Shan sneered and said, "They knew that Fang Yun was only a High Scholar, so they wanted to suppress him. In the end, Fang Yun turned the tables on them. In the future, when Fang Yun's position is higher, of course, they will resolve the hatred between them and Fang Yun. Hmph! "
"Then I don't know how long we have to wait. Let's go, let's board the ship first. "
As everyone boarded the ship, the surrounding Gyeongo people were like boiling water, discussing animatedly. It was incomparably noisy, forming a strange scene that could not be seen in the wee hours of Xi Province.
At first, everyone was very restrained, but as they talked, some angry people began to curse. However, they were not cursing at Fang Yun, but at the few people from the Xun Family who fought in the literary competition.
It was reasonable to say that the dead should be respected, but Xun Long's Heavenly Punishment was not included in this list. Almost everyone in Gyeongo felt that Xun Long had ruined Gyeongo's reputation. The Celestial Master's Way only appeared once in a hundred years, but it had appeared in Gyeongo. This was a huge blow to the entire Gyeongo Literary Name.
In addition, Fang Yun had won ten consecutive battles. This was no longer a matter of shame, but a national humiliation.
Fang Yun walked to the bow of the ship and prepared to wait for the airship to take off. He heard the continuous cursing below. He didn't care, but when he heard one sentence, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Anyone can beat 10 to 0! I can do it too! How embarrassing! How embarrassing! "
The airship's deck was filled with laughter. This person's mouth was too vicious, but he was right. Ten top High Scholars from the Xun Family were replaced by ten scholars, but the result was still 0: 10. There was no difference at all.
"Now I'm relieved. We were really worried for you just now," Li Fanming said.
"Yes, it was really dangerous. Who would have thought that Xun Long would be so decisive? He actually dared to retire from his literary position. If nothing unexpected happened, he could have become a scholar. Why was he so eager for quick success? I don't understand. "
"If you were born in the strict Xun Family, you would understand. Would it take 20 or 30 years for him to become a scholar? By that time, he would be the head of the family, but how old would his son be? By then, his son would be nurtured by the family, and the chances of him becoming a scholar are very slim. "
Yan Yukong said, "When this person retired from his literary position, he was filled with resentment. Clearly, a portion of the resentment is directed at the Xun family. "
"Actually, his strategy wasn't wrong. His self-composed poem couldn't be compared to 'Yi Shui Song' and 'Stone in Arrow'. You've seen Fang Yun's' Yi Shui Song '. It was too powerful. In addition, the distance between the two of them was very far. Even if Xun Long finished his poem half a breath earlier, he couldn't have threatened Fang Yun. He could only choose 'Stone in Arrow'. If he finished it half a breath earlier, Fang Yun wouldn't have been able to dodge it. Unfortunately, who would have thought that this poem was written by Fang Yun! "
"I just remembered. At the end, Scholar Li smiled very brightly. At that time, I thought that Duke Jian Mei had gone mad or … rebelled … that, ahem, I didn't expect it to be like this. When we just left the Holy Ground, when Fang Yun gave Duke Jian Mei the Life-Prolonging Fruit and the Life-Giving Fruit, he said that when he had just become a scholar, there was a very fierce battle. He was even ordered to keep his mouth shut by the Jingguo Prime Minister. There was no need to keep his mouth shut about the battle with the demons. Was it related to 'Stone in Arrow'? "
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Since 'Stone in Arrow' has been exposed, there's no need to hide it. I did write 'Stone in Arrow' during that battle, summoned the soul of poetry, and obtained the power of the Flying General Li Guang."
Li Fanming said, "Tell me what happened. The second level of poetry has the same name as the soul of poetry, but there are also differences in the soul of poetry. Li Guang is the Xusheng of the arrow, second only to the True Divine. "
The big rabbit ran over and squatted at Fang Yun's feet. It raised its head to listen to Fang Yun's story.
Fang Yun patted the big rabbit's head and said, "Then I'll tell you …"
Thus, Fang Yun told them the story of how he killed the False Dragon Turtle Monster General and wrote 'Stone in Arrow'.
When Fang Yun finished, everyone sighed.
"The love between the snake and the human is lamentable, but the Monster Snake massacring the entire village is unacceptable. It's a pity that the talented human was killed. If that person didn't die, he would have at least become a Hanlin Scholar. "
"I was wondering why 'Legend of the White Snake' was so good. It turns out that it was based on a true story."
"It's worthy of being called the Jingguo of Shang Yong. Even an ordinary High Scholar could use the Jade Blood Pill Heart so easily. If it were someone from Gyeongo, I'm afraid they would hesitate for a long time." Zong Wude said.
"No wonder you had a grudge with the Flood Dragon Palace's Qingjiang Flood Dragon King. We've all heard of the Monster Turtle's name. Its talent is indeed amazing, and it really has the potential to transform into a dragon. But it's good that you killed it. A mere Monster General dared to come ashore and kill us humans. In the future, when the Monster's rank is higher, the people will be plunged into misery and suffering. "
"We thought that your journey was smooth, but now we know that your success was not by chance. When we were Elementary Scholars, we didn't have such a thrilling experience."
"But how should we deal with the Dragon Pearl? Originally, you only ate one pearl. Now that you've eaten so many, we can only ask the Great Scholar to help us dissolve it completely. However, it will definitely harm your body. If you can fuse the Flood Dragon's bones into your Battle of Words, the Dragon Pearl can help you. But in the future, you will be hated by Dragons. "
"Yes, I'll think of a way to deal with it later." Fang Yundao.
"Are you really going to participate in the State Examinations on the first of September?" Yan Yukong asked.
"Of course." Fang Yundao.
