"Impossible, the water in the ocean of learning is so clear, it is impossible for you not to see the giant whale underneath!" Lei Longkuo said.
Lei Mo sighed and replied, "There are dense swarms of Wenxin fish near the giant whale, blocking the water. We started fishing right after we got there, and before we caught any fish, we ran into Fang Yun. We didn't have time to check carefully before Fang Yun bumped into us. If we had arrived a quarter of an hour earlier, we wouldn't have missed it."
"Didn't any of the three people see it?" asked a university scholar from Zong Lei's fleet angrily.
Tanigaki replied weakly: "No one knows what Xuehai Island looks like. When you see a small island surrounded by countless Wenxin fish and sea beasts dare not approach, will you think of the Supreme Wenxin fish or Xuehai Island?"
“Then…then you guys…” Lei Longkuo was filled with rage, but he couldn’t say anything else, after all, the other party was his uncle.
The Zong and Lei families who had been clamoring before had anger in their eyes and stared at the three heroes of Xuehai without being able to say anything.
"Who still remembers the poem by Grand Secretary Remorse? I forgot what it was about bitter hatred and what it meant to be a frame-up for others?" Li Fanming asked with a wicked smile.
"Come, let's recite together!" said Gao Yong, a Jinshi from Jing State.
"I have never known the fragrance of silk and satin, and I feel even more sad when I think of seeking help from a good matchmaker.
Who loves the elegant and refined style? We all pity the frugal dressing style of the times.
I dare to boast of my slender fingers, but I do not draw my eyebrows to make them longer.
I hate that I have to weave gold thread every year to make wedding dresses for others. "
"Hahaha… "
Thousands of people recited the poem loudly, and more and more people joined in. When the poem was finished, many people could not help but burst into laughter.
"What three heroes of the ocean of learning? They are simply three idiots of the ocean of learning!" said Li Fanming.
The crowd burst into deafening laughter again.
The last batch of scholars who returned to Xuehai didn't know the whole story, but after listening to this poem, they guessed what happened. They looked at Lei Mo and the other three with pity.
"Who is making the wedding dress for whom now?" a Jing countryman shouted.
"Lei Mo is in trouble. He finally wrote a good poem that is almost as good as Mingzhou, but he used it to ridicule Fang Xusheng. His cleverness backfired and he ended up tarnishing his own literary reputation. He will surely be infamous for eternity."
"I'm afraid these three people will never be able to hold their heads up high again! They will never lose the name of the Three Idiots of Xuehai."
"The three great scholars have become three fools..."
Everyone laughed quietly.
The faces of the Zong and Lei families turned livid. Lei Mo gritted his teeth, then suddenly closed his eyes and fainted. His figure disappeared from the sea of learning.
"Uncle!" Lei Longkuo roared, extremely sad and angry.
Some people shook their heads and sighed, thinking that Lei Mo's literary talent must have been broken, and his spiritual consciousness was damaged, so he disappeared directly from the sea of learning.
"Look..."
Someone whispered something, and everyone looked up at the sky above the ships on the beach.
All the Wenxin fish in Zong Lei’s fleet were seen being wrapped in bubbles and gathered together. The number was close to 20,000, but still less than the number on a single dragon boat.
Some people in Zong Lei's fleet looked ashamed. Even if so many people caught more Wenxin fish together, they would not catch as many as Fang Yun alone.
Afterwards, those Wenxin fish were separated by a silent force and fell onto the ships participating in the competition in Fang Yun’s fleet.
Two rays of light, one gold and one silver, were cast into the dragon boat.
The most precious instant Wenxin fish and top-grade Wenxin fish were allocated to Fang Yun by Xuehai.
No one in Fang Yun's fleet objected. This was what Fang Yun deserved.
At that time, there were 12,000 people participating in the race. With so many Wenxin fish, everyone had a share, and some people even got two.
Many people have found that the distribution in Xuehai is fair. The farther the boat sails, the better and bigger the Wenxin fish it gets. And the distribution process also takes everyone's needs into consideration. If someone has two three-inch Xinkou female yellow croakers, he will be allocated a five-inch Xinkou female yellow croaker to make up for the inferior Wenxin, instead of other small fish.
Those who did not participate in the competition looked at the distribution of the spoils with great envy. If they had known this would happen, they should have taken the risk to participate in the competition, especially this year when they could bring a literary mind with them. Any low-grade literary mind would be worth millions, definitely not less than a Hanlin literary treasure.
"Thank you, Fang Xu Sheng!" A Jinshi saw a two-foot-long low-quality Wenxin fish flying onto his sailboat and expressed his gratitude loudly.
"Thank you, Fang Xusheng!"
"Thank you Fang Xusheng!"
…
The voices of thanks came one after another, even more frequent than the previous Wenxin fish trading. This was tens of thousands of people continuously speaking, making people's ears numb.
When the thanks stopped, Fang Yun smiled and bowed to everyone, saying: "You are too polite. I really need the top-grade literary mind and the instantaneous literary mind, so I won't be modest."
"This is what Fang Xusheng deserves!"
"Yes, you asked for two Wenxin fish, which is too few. You can take any fish you like!"
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Please wait a moment."
After saying that, Fang turned his body, and with a thought, the four top-grade Wenxin fish on the dragon boat all flew in front of him, and behind each top-grade Wenxin fish were ten medium-grade Wenxin fish.
The people present were extremely jealous when they saw this scene. They all knew that Fang Yun not only wanted to absorb the top-grade literary mind, but also absorb ten middle-grade literary minds of the same kind to strengthen his top-grade literary mind and lay the foundation for future efforts to become a holy product.
To anyone, doing so would be a waste of natural resources and a waste of Wenxin, but those fish belonged to Fang Yun, and Fang Yun had the right to do so. Moreover, most people hoped that Fang Yun's Wenxin could be promoted to a holy product, which would not only allow him to kill more monsters, but also give him a stronger ability to protect himself.
Among the four top-quality Wenxin fish, the Inch-Increasing, Bookcase-Standing and Silver-Tongue were all caught by Fang Yun himself. Only the top-quality Wenxin fish, the Lying, was caught from Zong Lei's fleet.
Fang Yun aimed at the top-grade Wenxin fish and blinked. The Wenxin fish, which was longer than Fang Yun, turned into a fish-shaped light spot and flew straight into Fang Yun's brows.
Every time Fang Yun obtained Wen Xin in the past, he fell into a coma, but this time he only felt a slight pain and did not faint.
Fang Yun clearly felt that there was a new Wenxin lamp in his Wen Palace, and there was a ball of Wenxin fire on the lamp.
Then, Fang Yun aimed at the second top-quality Wenxin fish.
"This... Fang Xusheng is indeed amazing. Even if a university scholar absorbs a top-grade literary heart, he will faint for dozens of breaths, but he is fine."
"It's their fault for not overestimating their own abilities. Do they think they can defeat such a person?"
Fang Yun first devoured four top-grade Wenxin fish, and then devoured ten middle-grade Wenxin fish of the corresponding species, making the top-grade Wenxin fish stronger. Finally, he devoured ten middle-grade Fenbishi Wenxin fish and Duplicity Wenxin fish.
In the Wen Palace, the lights of the writers who were writing furiously made beeping sounds, much louder than any other lights, just like torches, and seemed to be able to undergo a qualitative change at any time.
Fang Yun was about to absorb the supreme literary giant whale when an old voice came: "Fang Xusheng, did you keep my middle-grade Spring and Autumn Accumulation Sequence?"
Fang Yun smiled and looked at the stupid scholar Tian Songshi. With a flick of his finger, a middle-grade Spring and Autumn Jixu Wenxin fish on the dragon boat flew towards the stupid scholar.
"Students will naturally remember it." Fang Yun said with a smile.
"That's good. This fish that is as steady as a mountain is yours." After Tian Songshi finished speaking, he saw a big white fish more than ten feet long flying to Fang Yunlong's boat.
Everyone and Fang Yun were stunned. That was a top-grade Wenxin fish! And it was an extremely important fish that was as stable as Mount Tai. It could be exchanged for three generations of kings in any country!
Top-grade Wenxin fish are more precious than the great scholar's treasures. After all, since the emergence of the Sea of Learning, the total number of top-grade Wenxin fish caught is less than one hundred, but there are many great scholars.
If this top-grade Wenxin fish is taken out, it can be exchanged for anything you want from any family, even borrowing a semi-saint's true text is easy!
"Mr. Songshi, you can't do that. This is what you worked so hard to catch! That Spring and Autumn fish. It's what you deserve after joining the competition." Fang Yun hurriedly returned the fish, which was as steady as a mountain, without any reluctance.
Tian Songshi laughed and said, "I am already over a hundred years old, and I don't have many years left to live. If I get a middle-grade Spring and Autumn Accumulation Sequence, the power of my war poems will be increased by at least 50%, and I won't be afraid of being laughed at for having no literary mind in the future. That's enough. As for other literary mind fish, whether they are low-grade or high-grade, it would be a waste to use them on me. I will give the rest of the literary mind fish to the younger generations of Qi State with good reputations. I won't use any of them."
"But… "
Tian Songshi stroked his long beard and interrupted, "No buts. I am over a hundred years old. If I still can't tell the difference between the important and the unimportant, wouldn't I be living a dog's life like the Zong and Lei families? This top-grade fish is as stable as a mountain. It would be a waste to give it to anyone else. It will only play its greatest role if it is given to you. If you don't believe me, I will ask everyone on the spot, who dares to say that they deserve this Wenxin fish more than Fang Xusheng?"
The whole audience was silent.
Even the most shameless Zong and Lei families didn't dare to speak.
Fang Yun's eyes were a little moist. He didn't expect that the stupid scholar would be willing to give him such a precious Wenxin fish.
Yan Yukong's eyes were red. Others didn't know, but he was traveling with the stupid scholar all the way and knew best how much Tian Songshi cherished this Wenxin fish. He would glance at it from time to time along the way, often patting the fish's head and smiling with pride every time.
Yan Yukong knew very well that Tian Songshi had been called a stupid scholar for so many years. He had never been to the mountain of books or the ocean of learning. Even if he didn't care, he would still feel regretful in his heart, and that regret would inevitably increase with the passage of time.
And today, Tian Songshi has used nearly a hundred years of hard work to prove to the world that he has caught a top-quality Wenxin fish. He has the ability to stand at the pinnacle of the human race and compete with those true geniuses, and he has caught a top-quality Wenxin fish!
For Tian Songshi, this top-grade Wenxin fish is the trophy and medal of his nearly a hundred years of hard work!
However, Tian Songshi didn't even frown and gave it to Fang Yun as he said.
Fang Yun looked at Tian Songshi, speechless.
Tian Songshi laughed and said, "Stop nagging there. If you move forward faster, our entire human race can move faster! As for those bastards who are holding you back, they will eventually be eliminated!" Then he sent the Wenxin fish onto the dragon boat.
"Fang Yun, take it." Yan Yukong looked at Fang Yun with red eyes.
"Yes, Fang Xusheng, take it!" Li Fanming and other scholars from Qiguo who were students of Tian Songshi also persuaded.
"Fang Yun would like to thank Mr. Song Shi here!" Fang Yun bowed deeply.
"Hey, what are you thanking me for?" The old man waved his hand, looking very open-minded, with a kind smile on his face.
The scholars present looked up at Fang Yun with a faint smile on their faces and eyes full of pure joy. They were even happier than if they had obtained the top-grade Wenxin fish.
