In the Bookstore's backyard, Ma Feifei hurriedly ran to the rocking chair and lay down, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Da da da~~"

The sound of hurried footsteps.

"Ma Feifei... Ma Feifei." Yun Qingyang ran out of the Bookstore, her face full of surprise, holding the Yellow Quality book she had written in her hands.

"Could you please stop being so loud and boisterous?" Ma Feifei looked at Yun Qingyang with disdain.

"Look, look." Yun Qingyang rarely smiled, and didn't mind Ma Feifei's disgusted expression. He ran to Ma Feifei's side and handed Ma Feifei the Yellow Quality book.

Ma Feifei reluctantly took the book, glanced at it, and showed a surprised expression. "Wow, it's actually Yellow Quality! You're that good?"

"That's right!" Yun Qingyang proudly raised her fair neck, almost to the sky.

"Tsk tsk, congratulations." Ma Feifei offered her congratulations with a smile while turning her gaze to the book written by Yun Qingyang.

Ma Feifei was stunned when he saw the book title.

"Qingyang, are you sure you're serious about this book title?" Ma Feifei tapped the title on the cover and asked speechlessly.

"Of course I'm serious. What do you think? Isn't the name great? Let me tell you, I thought about this title for several days before I came up with it." Yun Qingyang got particularly excited when Ma Feifei mentioned the title, explaining with a beaming face.

"..."

Looking at Yun Qingyang's excited face, Ma Feifei wished she could smack her face.

What is all this nonsense? If Ma Feifei knew that Yun Qingyang's book was like this, Ma Feifei would never help her revise it.

"Is there a problem?" Yun Qingyang asked, puzzled, when Ma Feifei remained silent.

Ma Feifei shook her head, not answering Yun Qingyang's question, and silently opened the book to begin reading.

Time flies, and I finished reading the first chapter in no time.

"Sigh!" Ma Feifei sighed, closed the book, and put it into her spatial ring.

"Why did you take it?" Yun Qingyang asked, puzzled.

"Could I have this book?" Ma Feifei asked earnestly.

"For you?" Yun Qingyang was even more confused now. Weren't books of Blue Quality or higher supposed to be added to the Mysterious Bookstore shelves later?

Ma Feifei nodded, looking at Yun Qingyang with admiration, and said, "Qingyang, your book is so well-written that I don't want to let anyone else read it. So I want to keep it for myself and Last Resort it."

"Really?!" Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyang's face showed a surprised smile, hardly believing that these words came from Ma Feifei's mouth.

However, Ma Feifei's words still made Yun Qingyang happy from the bottom of her heart.

"More real than Pearl," Ma Feifei replied seriously.

"Alright, then I'll give it to you, but you have to give it to me when I want to read it." The book written by Yun Qingyang not only features Ma Feifei, but its background is also in ancient times, which means that Yun Qingyang's parents are in the book. Yun Qingyang's main purpose in writing the book is to be able to enter the world in the book and meet her parents, whom she has never met in person.

"Of course, no problem." Seeing Yun Qingyang agree, Ma Feifei breathed a sigh of relief. This book would never be published, never in its lifetime; it would only remain in the cold palace. Otherwise, Ma Feifei's lifelong reputation would be ruined.

Ma Feifei's affirmative answer made Yun Qingyang very happy. She hadn't expected that her book could actually reach a level above Yellow Quality, and that it would be the highest quality book she had ever written.

In fact, Yun Qingyang's Yellow Quality book is not only the first book of Yellow Quality or higher, but also the only one. By noon, tens of thousands of cultivators had evaluated their original books, but not a single book of Yellow Quality or higher had been evaluated, and even Blue Quality books were few and far between, less than thirty.

That's exactly why people realize that high-quality books are not as simple as they imagined.

"Sigh! I overestimated myself a bit." Gongsun Qiong, who had just finished evaluating the books, returned to the railing on the third floor of the Wantong Trading Market, looked at the Blue Quality book in her hand, and sighed.

Yes, the books that Gongsun Qiong created herself were only of Blue Quality; they did not reach the Yellow Quality or even higher quality that one might have imagined.

"You've done very well. I'm the one who overestimated myself." Zhao Xiaodao, standing to the side, slapped the white book in her hand in frustration. She was even worse off than Gongsun Qiong; the book she evaluated was only of White Quality. This was a huge blow to Zhao Xiaodao's spirit.

"So, according to you, doesn't that mean I have ambitions that are too high?" Zhou Zhuling on the other side couldn't help but smile. She had also written a book, but it hadn't even passed the White Quality evaluation. If you were to say who was the most miserable among the three, it would be her.

Gongsun Qiong looked at Zhou Zhuling and laughed, "Zhuling, that book of yours was just hastily written last night. Don't think I don't know."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhuling lowered her head in embarrassment.

"You don't need to comfort me, I'm not that fragile." Gongsun Qiong turned to look at the Mysterious Bookstore. Although she spoke lightly, Zhou Zhuling and Zhao Xiaodao could hear a hint of resentment in her voice.

"It's probably because... that Saint wrote a book of Yellow Quality!" Zhao Xiaodao and Zhou Zhuling thought to themselves.

"Pop~"

A faint sound rang out, attracting the attention of many cultivators.

"Huh? Why did the Plum Blossom drift away?" Everyone looked up and saw that the Plum Blossom that had been drifting in from the Zhenbei had stopped, and only the Seven-Colored Liuli Rain was still falling from the sky.

With the Plum Blossom gone, the effects of the Seven-Colored Liuli Rain were no longer as potent, which frustrated all the cultivators. Just as they were about to complain, suddenly...

"Ding~"

With a resounding boom, thousands of tiny golden characters descended from the sky.

"It's Question-Answering Rain!" a cultivator exclaimed in surprise as he watched the golden characters flying down.

"Whoosh~"

A great figure ascended to the heavens and grasped a small golden character.

"Buzz~"

Golden characters transformed into a sentence that appeared before this important figure.

"First line: Mountain goats, mountain goat horns. Readers, please provide the matching second line. A reward will be given for a successful matching line."

"This..." The important figure was instantly dumbfounded; he couldn't believe it!

Instinctively, he looked down, but no one was paying attention to him at that moment; everyone was busy grabbing the falling golden characters.

"I managed to snag a couplet..."

"This is a word puzzle..."

"I'm reciting a poem..."

The sounds echoed throughout Dubian Town, and countless small golden characters rained down from the sky. Those caught transformed into questions, while those that were not caught fell to the ground and disappeared.

"Huh, what's this?"

In the Bookstore's backyard, Yun Qingyang looked up at the falling golden characters and curiously reached out her fair hand to catch them.

"Ding~"

The small golden characters emitted light and transformed into a text.

"The wind blows the sails, is it the sails that move, or the wind that moves..." Yun Qingyang read the passage aloud, somewhat confused. He turned to Ma Feifei, who was lying in the rocking chair, and asked, "Ma Feifei, what does this mean?"

Ma Feifei was reading a book written by Yun Qingyang when she heard this and subconsciously replied, "It's love at first sight."

"Feeling attracted?"
