The young masters who came to Golden Dragon Island were all in high spirits.
Today is the day to compete in four special skills.
Geniuses are often connected.
These prodigies of martial arts, who are experts in the four special arts, are usually pretty good, and each has his or her own unique skills.
Nangong Villa, in the square in front of the main mansion.
Near the main palace, tables and chairs were placed for King Wu to sit.
In front, there are also half-knee-high long tables, neatly arranged, with the same number as the young master's.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai said: "The four arts and cultivating one's sentiments are an indispensable part of a warrior's career. Warriors who are not proficient in the four arts are all rude warriors.
You are all the geniuses of your respective dynasties, and you should be involved in the four special arts. Today... I and the other Martial Kings will test your attainments in the four special arts."
In the heart of Zhenhai Dragon King, Lin Xuan has been selected as the target of the gift quota. However, the words have been released, and today the procedures of the four special arts are still compared.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai said: "There are four special arts. The first one is the piano art. Everyone... find a place to sit down and start playing! The last person to play is the first person in the piano art."
Some young masters walked forward holding a long piano.
The other young masters did not move.
People's energy is limited and they specialize in four arts. Few people are proficient in each of them.
Those who have not reached the second level of Qin Dao will naturally be unwilling to show their shame.
Nie Qingcang took out a long harp from his space bracelet and handed it to Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan took the long harp and walked to the table array in front.
He chose an empty seat, sat cross-legged, and placed the long piano on the table in front of him.
In the end, about twenty young masters competed in piano skills.
Soon... there was a piano sound.
Every piano sound is melodious and emotional.
As the music spread, the birds in the sky gathered above the square one by one, and some even landed directly on the table, quietly enjoying the music.
Lin Xuan's attainments in playing the piano were so high that he reached the third level of "artistic conception". As soon as he played, there was no way for others to survive and he was in no hurry to start.
Lin Xuan is a polite person. These young masters are all the geniuses of their respective dynasties. It is a rare trip to Golden Dragon Island, so naturally they want to show their performance and play some music first.
On the field, except for Lin Xuan who did not move, there was another person who did not move.
It's Xiao Yusheng.
He had the same idea, master! You have to wait until the end to take action.
Xiao Yusheng's eyes swept around, and soon... his eyes were fixed.
He saw Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan didn't play either.
Xiao Yusheng's eyes narrowed slightly. The more he played the piano, the better he got into the rhythm. If he started playing the piano later, he would be a step behind others. Without superb piano skills, he would not have such confidence.
"Hmph! Let's see who among us makes the move first!"
Xiao Yusheng snorted softly.
His Qin Dao attainments have already reached the edge of the third realm. As long as he keeps playing, it only takes half a stick of incense to reach the 'artistic realm'.
Xiao Yusheng is self-confident and accomplished in piano. No one can compare with him, and he is firmly ranked first.
The piano sounds of the young masters are intertwined together. Although they are all in an 'emotional' state, their attainments are different.
Gradually, the mood of those with lower attainments began to be affected by the sound of the piano with higher attainments.
Although they are masters, they can control the emotional changes affected by the sound of the piano with powerful spiritual power.
However... once you focus on resisting the sound of the piano, it is easy to lose the rhythm of your own music.
Once the rhythm is messed up, the music can no longer be played and has to be stopped.
As soon as the incense was played, some people began to mess up the rhythm and stop playing.
Soon, a second person and a third person stopped playing. They could only try their best to stabilize their spirits and prevent themselves from being affected by other people's music.
Time passed minute by minute.
Half an hour later.
There were only three people still playing in the field.
The piano skills of the three of them are all in an 'emotional' state. They are extremely sophisticated and it is difficult to distinguish between them.
After playing for half an hour, they have fully integrated into the music. The music of outsiders cannot suppress their own music, so they will not be affected in any way.
Lin Xuan and Xiao Yusheng still did not take action.
Lin Xuan looked as usual, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was enjoying the music of the piano.
Xiao Yusheng glanced at Lin Xuan from time to time.
The music of the piano penetrated his ears, and the emotional effect became stronger and stronger. Xiao Yusheng also needed to concentrate and control himself.
Xiao Yusheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
If we wait any longer, the three people's piano music will reach its peak, and Xiao Yusheng's piano music intro may not be able to be played.
"Hmph! Lin Xuan, you must have been too deeply affected by the sound of the piano and can't play it anymore, right?"
Xiao Yusheng said to himself, stopped playing with Lin Xuan, moved his hands, and started playing.
Suddenly... there was a burst of sweet and emotional piano music.
As soon as he made a sound, he was at the peak of his emotional attainments in piano playing.
The three young masters who were playing raised their eyebrows slightly and were immediately affected.
The sound of Xiao Yusheng's piano suppressed the sounds of others, and he suddenly felt relaxed and could fully integrate into the piano playing.
The sound of the piano gradually became more intense, and Xiao Yusheng played "Murder in Ten Directions".
This is an intense and murderous piece of music that can easily disturb people's minds.
Some birds, affected by the music, began to peck and fight with each other.
After only a few dozen breaths, the three young masters who had played before had their brows furrowed into the character "Chuan".
The sound of Xiao Yusheng's piano filled their ears, making them increasingly upset.
In front, the martial kings watched this scene, completely unaffected by the sound of the piano, chatting and laughing.
"King of Heavenly Fire, this junior of your Xiao family has amazing attainments in the piano! Listening to his music, it seems that he is only one step away from the third realm."
"Xiao Yusheng is only twenty-two years old! It is very rare to have such attainments in the piano!"
…
"Haha... Yu Sheng's Qin Dao talent is not inferior to his martial arts talent. He has already stepped on the edge of the third level of Qin Dao. He only needs a period of guidance to play Qin music in the third level."
…
"What? Already on the edge of the third realm of Qindao?"
"The third level of Qin Dao is equivalent to a martial arts master. Tsk tsk... Xiao Yusheng is a master of both martial arts and Qin Dao!"
"Under Xiao Yusheng's piano music, it is difficult for the other three to hold on. It seems... Xiao Yusheng's Qin Dao attainments must be the first."
…
The Heavenly Fire King was smiling all by himself.
At this time, another King Wu said: "I'm afraid it's not too early to draw a conclusion on the result. It seems that Lin Xuan hasn't started playing yet!"
"Really? Why haven't you started playing yet? Could it be that you are too affected by the sound of the piano and can't play anymore?" said a King Wu next to him.
Zhenhai Dragon King has been paying attention to Lin Xuan, and Lin Xuan has indeed not started playing yet.
He looked at Nie Qingcang and saw Nie Qingcang with a smile in his eyes and a calm face.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai nodded secretly, knowing it in his heart. It looked like... Lin Xuan was going to surprise people again.
In less than a stick of incense, Xiao Yusheng's piano music became more and more passionate, reaching a state of artistic conception. The three people who had played before lost their rhythm one after another and could no longer play.
Along with the sound of the piano, a picture appeared in everyone's minds.
Thousands of arrows were fired from all directions, as if countless sharp arrows were hitting him, which made people's hearts tremble.
The young masters quickly destroyed the true essence and poured it into their minds to clear their minds and then dispel the image.
Xiao Yusheng smiled slightly. After the prelude of a stick of incense, his piano music had reached the third state of 'artistic conception'.
Those birds that were fighting and pecking each other suddenly entered the artistic conception of the sound of the piano, and one by one they turned over and fell to the ground, feeling as if they were being killed.
Just when Xiao Yusheng thought he was sure to win.
Lin Xuan finally fired the bullet.
A sound of piano suddenly spread out, which refreshed people's spirits and made their minds clear.
The artistic conception created by Xiao Yusheng suddenly collapsed.
Those flying birds that almost thought they were dead stood up one after another, flew towards Lin Xuan instinctively, landed next to Lin Xuan, and were immersed in the world of piano music.
Achievements in Qin Dao - the third realm of ‘artistic conception’.
Moreover, Lin Xuan went straight into the third realm as soon as he played, without the need for a stick of incense to prepare the prelude like Xiao Yusheng did.
The music played by Lin Xuan is "The Country is Like a Picturesque Country".
The gentle sound of the piano is like a scroll unfolding together. It is completely different from Xiao Yusheng's murderous piano music, which makes people feel comfortable.
Xiao Yusheng was shocked when he heard the sound of Lin Xuan's piano.
If Lin Xuan had played from the beginning, under the influence of the third realm's piano sounds, the prelude of Xiao Yusheng's piano music would have been chaotic, and he would not have been able to play the third realm's piano sounds at all.
But now...
The music of both of them was in the third realm, and a sharp light flashed in Xiao Yusheng's eyes.
Yesterday, he was defeated by Lin Xuan twice in a row.
Today, Xiao Yusheng was secretly angry and would never lose again.
Xiao Yusheng's eyes were as sharp as knives, his whole body revealed the sound of killing, his spirit and will were stimulated to the limit, and he fully integrated into the playing of the piano.
Xiao Yusheng played quickly with both hands, as if he was fighting.
The music of "Murder in Ten Directions" is as sharp as a sword, penetrating people's hearts.
Even Lin Xuan was affected by this murderous piano sound and frowned slightly.
He is familiar with the teachings of the great master of Qin Dao, and his attainments in Qin Dao are advancing rapidly.
Especially when he was under pressure, his potential was stimulated and he quickly understood the great master's knowledge of the art of music.
Lin Xuan's musical attainments continued to improve as he played.
His expression was elegant, like a handsome young man, which was in stark contrast to Xiao Yusheng's crazy state.
His melodious music makes people feel happy and relaxed.
After a while, Xiao Yusheng's intense piano music was completely suppressed.
All the young masters are no longer affected by Xiao Yusheng's music.
Some young masters, even when they exerted all their strength to destroy their spirits, could not stop Lin Xuan's music. Picturesque scenes of mountains and rivers instinctively appeared in their minds, and they gradually became intoxicated by it.
Under the influence of Lin Xuan's piano music, Xiao Yusheng's emotions gradually became balanced, and he slowly returned to calm from his crazy state.
The murderous intent in his music gradually faded away.
In the music "Murderous Intent from Ten Directions", if there is no murderous intent, what would it be called Murderous Intent from Ten Directions?
soon……
The rhythm of Xiao Yusheng's piano music became chaotic, and the artistic conception completely disappeared.
Xiao Yusheng pressed his hands on the strings, and the chaotic sound of the piano suddenly stopped, and he let out a long sigh.
There is a competition in Qin Dao attainment, and the results are clear.
In the end, there was only one person left to play, Lin Xuan.
Xiao Yusheng's attainments in piano music have reached the edge of the third realm.
Lin Xuan's Qin Dao attainments have fully entered the third realm, and have even... already made some progress in the third realm.
The powerful martial kings looked at Lin Xuan with surprise and admiration in their eyes.
He is only twenty years old and has master-level strength before becoming a master. Among the four partial arts, his attainments in qin Dao have reached the third level of "artistic conception", so he can be called a master of qin Dao.
Any one of them is a genius performance, and now two of them are gathered in one person, which is really amazing.
This kid... is so terrifying!
Lin Xuan finished playing the song "The Country is Like a Picturesque Country" and then stopped playing.
Around him, hundreds of birds have gathered around him, and the sound of the piano has stopped but has not dispersed, and he is intoxicated by the lingering sound.
The young master Lin Xuan woke up from the artistic conception of the music, and all looked at Lin Xuan with expressions of surprise and shock.
Many people took a breath of air!
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan's Qin Dao attainments were so high that he had become a master.
Xiao Yusheng was also a Qin Dao master, but...under Lin Xuan's crushing power, he was completely dimmed and was almost ignored by the young masters.
Xiao Yusheng wanted to cry but had no tears: If you gave birth to Lin Xuan, how could you give birth to me, Xiao Yusheng!
The Dragon King of Zhenhai stood up and applauded: "Okay, Lin Xuan, you are really amazing... A twenty-year-old martial arts master and a piano master are really rare in the world. In the piano competition, you are the leader!"
All the martial kings let out exclamations one after another and looked at Nie Qingcang with envy in their eyes.
Nie Qingcang had a smile on his face, full of secret joy.
He knew that Lin Xuan's calligraphy and painting skills were both at the third level.
The whole audience has been shocked now, what will happen next?
Nie Qingcang felt relieved just thinking about it.
Lin Xuan stood up, clasped his fists at the Zhenhai Dragon King, and then raised his hands to the Martial Kings, saying:
"This junior is just a minor talent and has made a fool of himself in front of all the seniors."
The young masters looked at Lin Xuan with frustrated faces.
Listen!
People say no?
If this is just a little trick, what have we become?
At this time, all the birds woke up from the lingering sound and looked at Lin Xuan, like a god. They bowed their heads to Lin Xuan one after another, then fluttered their wings and flew around Lin Xuan for several times before flying away into the sky.
This sight made all the young masters envious.
With Lin Xuan's musical attainments, he can communicate with beasts and birds through music and become a beast master.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai said: "Okay, the piano competition is over. Now... we will begin the second round... the chess competition.
Chess players compete against each other. The winner stays and the loser leaves until the final winner is determined. For each skill leader, I will give you a gift."
The gift sent by King Wu was absolutely extraordinary, and all the young masters were in high spirits.
Lin Xuanqin Dao's attainments are so profound, in the eyes of the young masters, he must have spent a lot of time practicing.
Then... the time spent on the other three arts is naturally short, and it is impossible to have too high attainments.
The young masters are gearing up one by one, preparing to show off their skills in the chess competition.
Lin Xuan thought for a while and quit the chess competition.
His chess skills are still at the second level, and he has no absolute advantage to win the first place.
Although with his chess skills, he was able to kill everyone in the first few games, and finally reached the semi-finals or even the finals.
But as long as one of these young masters reaches the third level of chess "artistic conception", he can be easily crushed.
Lin Xuan likes the pleasure of crushing others, but he doesn't want to be crushed by others.
Anyway, when the later calligraphy and painting are for expression, the chess competition... naturally allows others to steal the limelight.
Lin Xuan's withdrawal allowed all the young masters to 'confirm' their suspicions.
"Sure enough, Lin Xuan is only proficient in piano. As long as I win one of the three competitions of chess, calligraphy and painting, I will not be weaker than Lin Xuan. If I can win two... I can be even better.
Better than Lin Xuan."
All the young masters have this idea in their hearts.
Soon... someone from Nangong Villa brought a chessboard and placed it on the table.
Two people at a table, playing chess against each other.
After each game, the losers leave one by one, and fewer and fewer people remain on the scene.
In the end... Ni Shikun, who had reached the third level of chess, killed everyone and won the leader.
Lin Xuan secretly smiled. As expected, a young grandmaster reached the third level of chess and avoided a crushing defeat.
Moreover, there are three other people who are not inferior to Lin Xuan in terms of chess skills. They are all at the peak of the second level. If Lin Xuan faced off against them, it is hard to predict who will win and who will lose.
Unlucky, I couldn't even make it to the semi-finals in the chess competition.
Ni Shikun glanced at Lin Xuan disappointedly. He originally wanted to crush Lin Xuan in the chess competition, but... Lin Xuan's withdrawal made him lose this opportunity at all.
"If I don't participate, you won't be able to suppress me!" Lin Xuan was not depressed at all when his chess leader was replaced by someone else.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai announced the results: "In the chess competition, Ni Shikun defeated all the young masters and won the first place. Next... there will be a calligraphy competition, each person writes a hundred words, and the final victory or defeat will be jointly judged by the martial arts kings."
The chessboard was removed.
There are pens, ink and paper on every table.
Every warrior can write Chinese characters.
In the art of calligraphy, many young masters have some attainments, either high or low.
This time, all the young masters went out to participate in the calligraphy competition.
Lin Xuan walked out from behind Nie Qingcang with a faint smile on his face.
It’s time to show off again!
So cool!
Lin Xuan walked to the table where he had previously competed on the piano and sat down.
Pick up the brush, dip it in ink, and without any hesitation, start writing as smoothly as flowing clouds.
Soon, one hundred words were written.
The calligraphy in the third realm of calligraphy no longer pursues regularity, but relies on artistic conception.
Every word written by Lin Xuan is like a flying dragon and snake, full of a wild beauty.
The final signature: Lin Xuanshu.
These three words are written neatly and beautifully, with a different artistic conception.
After writing, put pen to paper.
The writing speed of all the young masters is not slow, and many of them started writing at the same time as Lin Xuan.
The Dragon King of Zhenhai had been paying attention to Lin Xuan. When he saw Lin Xuan writing, he waved to someone and gave a few instructions.
Soon, the grandmaster walked to Lin Xuan's desk, collected the hundred words that Lin Xuan had written, and handed them directly into the hands of Zhenhai Dragon King.
Others put away the words written by other young masters.
Zhenhai Dragon King opened Lin Xuan's scroll and took a look, his eyes... brightened up.
Good words!
Good mood!
The third realm of calligraphy!
Zhenhai Dragon King's eyes moved slowly.
I read all of the one hundred words carefully, and finally looked over Lin Xuan's signature three words carefully.
