Outside the Lingyan Pavilion.
One after another students left, and the students coming out of the Tanbo Pavilion and the Yishan Pavilion formed a small peak. For the vast majority of students, playing Tanbo music and moving mountains to kill barbarians were too difficult. In the end, only a dozen people entered the sixth pavilion, the Mojian Pavilion.
However, no one can actually pass Mo Jianting.
Soon, everyone in Lingyan Pavilion came out except Fang Yun.
More and more people gathered in front of the Lingyan Pavilion, even those students who didn't want to come were rushing over.
The news that Fang Yun had passed the sixth pavilion of Lingyan Pavilion spread throughout the Jingguo Academy like wings, and some excited teachers even brought their students with them.
"Do you think Fang Yun can pass the Seventh Pavilion? If he passes the Seventh Pavilion in one try, he will definitely become the first person in Lingyan Pavilion. Although those geniuses and semi-saints are strong, none of them has ever passed the Seventh Pavilion when they first entered Lingyan Pavilion."
"It's hard to say. Although Fang Yun's poems are good, he hasn't even entered the realm of painting, so he may not be able to go beyond the seventh pavilion."
"However, I heard that at least five of his first six pavilions were ten chips, which is too scary."
"Brother Qiao, what do you think?"
"If he passes, that's even better. If he doesn't, that's no big deal! Since Fang Yun passed the Sixth Pavilion, it means he is qualified to live in the First House. It also means that the Lei family's Dragon Stone must belong to him, and all disputes will be ended by him! After this Lingyan Pavilion, we must concentrate on preparing for the competition and participate in the Ten Nations Competition in October."
"Speaking of the Ten Nations Competition, my Jing Nation has not been in the top eight for many years. This year, with Fang Yun and Ji Zhibai here, two tigers out of the cage, we will definitely be able to easily get into the top five. We may even be in the top three!"
"But... all participants in the Ten Kingdoms Competition are Jinshi, although Juren can also participate. But how can Juren compete with Jinshi?"
"The Ten-Nation Competition is a literary competition, not a literary war. In this respect, Fang Yun is at least slightly better than me." said Younian, a Jinshi from Shangshe.
Qiao Juze smiled and said, "If it's just a literary competition, are you sure Fang Yun is only 'a little bit' better than you?"
"Can I refuse to answer such embarrassing questions?"
Everyone laughed.
"I received news from Qingguo that the top scholar Zhuang Wu from Qingguo has passed the Mojian Pavilion and entered the final Caishi Pavilion. Zhuang Wu's poetry and painting were both outstanding, but he had never been able to pass the Mojian Pavilion. Now that he has passed the Mojian Pavilion, the seventh pavilion is just a matter of chips for him. Today, Qingguo will definitely have another scholar from the seventh pavilion."
"So what? One hundred Seven Pavilion Jinshi are not as good as one Lingyan Pavilion Ten Scholars. In less than half a year, Fang Yun will definitely be among the Lingyan Pavilion Ten Scholars and squeeze Yan Yukong out."
"Oh, by the way, Yan Yukong also entered the Lingyan Pavilion. He originally got 62nd chips, but today he might be able to go one step further and get 63rd or even 64th chips, pushing Yi Zhishi down to 10th place."
"In the Lingyan Pavilion of Qiguo and Jiaguo, many people have already reached the seventh pavilion, including not only the upper-ranking Jinshi, but also a few middle-ranking Jinshi and Juren."
"Even if you pass the seventh pavilion, it doesn't matter. The number of chips is more important! A seventh pavilion Jinshi with 42 chips may not be qualified to say anything in front of a sixth pavilion Jinshi with 50 chips. Among the scholars of the Confucius Academy and the Holy Academy, many rankings are based on the number of chips, not the number of pavilions."
"That's true. If seven pavilions each have six chips, it would be better for one pavilion to have ten chips, which would make it more famous in ten countries. Fang Yun has at least five pavilions and ten chips. Even those who have passed the imperial examinations in the seven pavilions dare not speak nonsense in front of him!"
"So don't worry about the seven-pavilion Jinshi of other countries. Even if Fang Yun can't pass the seven-pavilion, he can beat ten countries with five-pavilion and ten-chip skills! Maybe he can also pass the Yishan Pavilion with ten-chip skills. Six-pavilion and ten-chip skills are unprecedented!"
"I wonder if Fang Yun can complete the process of entering Lingyan Pavilion and passing through all seven pavilions at once."
"We should add one more. It's possible to make ten in one step!"
"How ridiculous! The Seventh Pavilion requires a foundation in painting. If you are not good at painting, even if your poems are known all over the world, they still won't pass the Seventh Pavilion!" Lei Yuanting couldn't help but say.
"Hey, isn't this someone from the Lei family? Aren't you supposed to be busy delivering the Dragon Ascension Stone to Fang? How can you still have the time to embarrass yourself here!"
"You... just wait and see!" Lei Yuanting wanted to walk away, but after taking a few steps, he felt unwilling to do so and stood a little further away, quietly waiting for Fang Yun.
Tens of thousands of students and teachers looked at the golden wooden building shrouded in smoke in front of them, hoping that Fang Yun could create another miracle.
Lingyan Pavilion and Caishi Pavilion.
Fang Yun was completely immersed in painting. A smile appeared on his face and his eyes were shining, as if he was not painting a picture but creating a world.
When drawing stones, there is a slight sound of stones hitting each other when the pen tip touches the paper.
When painting water, the ink flows onto the paper like water, either thick or thin.
When he was painting the pine trees, a light green color suddenly appeared on the tip of his brush. It seemed as if the pine trees were not painted on but rather grew out of Fang Yun's brush.
Without hesitation, Fang Yun painted the pine forest and stream in front of him one by one. There were a few places where he inadvertently incorporated his talent and new painting techniques. The rocks and the water obviously looked fake, but people felt that the water would wet their hands as long as they stretched out their hands.
However, Fang Yun did not paint strictly according to the green pines and creek in front of him, because freehand painting is different from detailed painting. Detailed painting emphasizes authenticity, while freehand painting focuses on expressing one's own interests and mood. Painting techniques are important, but one's inner painting ideas are more important.
As he painted, Fang Yun added some distant views. These distant views were not of the Cai Shi Pavilion, but the mountains and rivers of Ji County.
Fang Yun recalled everything that happened in Ji County, and a faint feeling of homesickness was revealed in the painting.
After finishing the painting, Fang Yun stopped, thought for a moment, and wrote "Enlightenment Water".
"When I enter the Jixian River, I always follow the water of enlightenment. Following the mountain for thousands of turns, there is no fun in the journey of a hundred miles. The sound is loud among the rocks, and the color is quiet among the deep pines..."
After Wang Wei wrote the two famous lines "The sound is loud among the rocks, the color is quiet among the pines", the surrounding vitality surged, and then the pine forest, reeds, stream, rocks and everything in front of him shook gently, as if an invisible force stripped away the original scenery and pulled the true meaning into the air, forming a translucent pine forest, stream, rocks and reeds.
The translucent pine forest stream stayed in the sky for a moment, and suddenly turned into a stream of light and entered Fang Yun's painting.
Fang Yun was also slightly stunned. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly that Wang Wei's poetry and painting were so powerful that they actually formed the legendary "Intention to Seize Heaven and Earth". Fortunately, this was only in the Lingyan Pavilion, and the power of the Intention to Seize Heaven and Earth this time was very small. If he were to paint on the battlefield, once the university scholar or even the great scholar formed the Intention to Seize Heaven and Earth, it would be enough to deprive countless monsters of their lives.
When Fang Yun finished writing the poem, the whole painting came alive, with the sound of flowing water, the rustling of pine trees when the wind blew, the swaying of reeds, and the chirping of insects and birds.
Fang Yun was clearly in the first realm of painting, but because of the resonance between poetry and painting, he captured the true meaning of the beautiful scenery and made the painting enter the second realm of "lifelike".
The poem and painting are completed.
Fang Yun put away his pen, and everything in front of him turned into white smoke. Then, a wooden sign glowing with golden light appeared in front of him.
Fang Yun: Ten colorful poems.
Each of the seven pavilions has ten chips.
Then, six golden wooden signs flew in from everywhere.
Seven golden wooden signs were lined up in the sky. They looked ordinary, but they exuded a powerful aura that looked down on the world and the sky.
The seven golden wooden plates suddenly shattered, then turned into golden light points that fell down, and finally condensed into a golden staircase in front of Fang Yun, extending upwards. At the end was a wooden door built with golden branches, and countless stars were circulating inside the door.
A look of joy appeared on Fang Yun's face.
Entering Lingyan Pavilion can slightly enhance one's own strength, but it is not obvious. When you pass through the seven pavilions for the first time, you can get extra rewards from Lingyan Pavilion. The higher the number of chips, the better the reward from Lingyan Pavilion. Even the children of semi-saint families will do their best to fight for this reward.
There are many rewards for passing the seven pavilions of Lingyan Pavilion, and the best reward is the incomplete literary mind, which can only be obtained by the ten sons of Lingyan Pavilion. The higher the ranking among the ten sons of Lingyan Pavilion, the stronger the incomplete literary mind you will get.
Fang Yun stepped onto the golden stairs and entered the wooden door built with golden branches.
With a flash of light before his eyes, Fang Yun saw hundreds of stars appearing in front of him.
The stars are big and small, and four of them are the brightest.
Fang Yun carefully observed the four stars, and one of them exuded a familiar aura.
That is the aura of supreme literary talent.
"It seems that these four stars represent four supreme literary minds."
Fang Yun carefully observed the other three stars representing the supreme literary mind, but could not see anything.
Fang Yun hesitated for a moment and pointed at one of the stars.
One of the stars moved slightly, and fell from the sky, carrying a long tail of starlight, and hit Fang Yun's forehead directly.
"Still so rude..." Fang Yun felt a sharp pain in his brow, remembering that it was the same when he got the talented Wen Xin. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
A golden light was emitted from the Lingyan Pavilion, and then the unconscious Fang Yun lay in the square in front of the Lingyan Pavilion.
The whole audience was silent.
Tens of thousands of students and teachers in the hall were all speechless. Just half a quarter of an hour ago, everyone had high hopes for Fang Yun, but how come Fang Yun just came out lying down
Although Fang Yun was uninjured, according to the convention of Lingyan Pavilion, only a failed person could come out in this way.
"It's bad! He has no injuries but is unconscious. Could it be that the palace is damaged?"
"Don't be such a pessimist! Maybe Fang Yun is just... too tired."
"It's possible, it's possible..."
Lei Yuanting laughed out loud.
“Hahaha… Fang Yun has already been defeated at the Seventh Pavilion! What about passing through all seven pavilions at once, what about becoming ten masters in one step? You Jing people are really good at bragging! We don’t want the Lei family’s Denglong Stone anymore, we’ll give it to Fang Yun. But we in the Lei family never brag about being able to pass through Lingyan Pavilion in one go!”
Countless Jingguo students glared at Lei Yuanting, but Lei Yuanting was not afraid at all.
Lei Yuanting continued, "Since Fang Yun didn't pass the seventh pavilion, I feel relieved! He passed the sixth pavilion after coming out of the Comet Corridor, which means that his talent and achievements are similar to Yan Yukong, but that's it..."
"boom!"
The Lingyan Pavilion suddenly shook slightly, making a loud noise, interrupting Lei Yuanting's words, and then a beam of orange light shot straight into the sky.
Lei Yuanting opened his mouth and stared at the orange beam of talent in disbelief, unable to utter a single sound. (To be continued...)
