Is your best skill drawing?
Everyone present was terrified upon hearing this.
Damn, Yang Zhen a devil? He can casually compose poems that become popular, and he can recite Daoist verses off the cuff. Although it was just a fleeting moment, both his poems and verses left everyone present feeling Celestial Person.
Although no one wanted to admit it, Yang Zhen's talent truly surpassed that of everyone present.
Now Yang Zhen actually says that his greatest talent is actually painting, which... makes everyone present feel almost absurd.
How is it possible for one person to excel in so many areas?
On the other hand, even if Yang Zhen is indeed accomplished in painting, it's nothing special. Gan Bailin, at such a young age, is able to Literary Talent Qi Condensation into Form and cause celestial phenomena when he paints. Everyone present knows this and admires him for it.
Even a talented woman as brilliant as Tian Rou could only be ranked first alongside Gan Bailin. No one present could match such talent. For Yang Zhen to challenge him in a painting contest was simply asking for trouble.
Inside the entire clock tower, no one believed that Yang Zhen could surpass Gan Bailin in painting, even if he claimed that painting was his greatest skill!
Amidst his initial surprise and uncertainty, Gan Bailin suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Then I, Gan, will come and learn from your art of painting!"
Outside the bell tower, everyone was shocked to hear the sound coming from inside.
" Yang Zhen wants to compete with Gan Bailin in painting. Doesn't he know that Gan Bailin's painting skills are among the best in the entire Tieling City?"
" Yang Zhen has brought this humiliation upon himself. Gan Bailin is one of the most likely people to climb the bell tower Bell Terrace paint on it. Compared to him, Yang Zhen is simply courting death!"
"To paint on the Bell Terrace... this is my lifelong dream. To be able to paint a picture on the Bell Terrace, even if it cannot move the heavens, I will die without regret."
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, everyone inside the clock tower stared at Yang Zhen and Gan Bailin with expressions of astonishment and uncertainty.
At this moment, Great Master Su suddenly spoke up, "Since that's the case, why don't the two of you go to the Bell Terrace and have a contest? What do you two think?"
Upon hearing the words "Bell Terrace," Gan Bailin suddenly trembled, looking at Great Master Su with surprise and asked, " Great Master Su, is what you say true?"
Great Master Su said with a smile, "Of course it's true!"
"What?"
The crowd was shocked and looked at the two with envy, then they all became excited.
"I never expected that Great Master Su would actually open the bell tower for the competition between Yang Zhen and Gan Bailin! This... this is truly a grand event for Tieling City!"
"I've heard that the Bell Terrace is incredibly magical. If one can gather and Literary Talent Qi Condensation into Form Literary Brilliance talent within it, and activate the celestial bodies, it's possible to illuminate Life Star and become a person chosen by heaven?"
"The term 'chosen one' is a bit of an exaggeration, but it does indeed allow one to ignite their Life Star and refine a cultivator's Divine Sense. More importantly, on the Bell Terrace, as long as one ignites their Life Star, they may comprehend an extremely rare Star Literary Talent Qi!"
"What?!" Everyone was taken aback and exclaimed in shock, "So Great Master Su's Star Literary Talent Qi was actually comprehended from the Bell Terrace?"
Gan Bailin was overjoyed, especially upon hearing the words "Star Literary Talent Qi." He became excited, his breathing heavy, and he murmured to himself, " Star Literary Talent Qi, the Star Literary Talent Qi I've always dreamed of! I, Gan Bailin, must seize this opportunity! Yang Zhen, you are very lucky; you may very well become a witness to my comprehension of Star Literary Talent Qi!"
Yang Zhen was taken aback, then turned to look at Great Master Su and asked, "What is Star Literary Talent Qi?"
Great Master Su smiled upon hearing this, but did not answer Yang Zhen's question. She simply turned and glanced at Yang Zhen.
An eerie and unpredictable aura emanated between Yang Zhen and Great Master Su. Yang Zhen's expression jolted, a soft buzzing sound filled his mind, and with a loud boom, a bizarre scene appeared before his eyes.
Between heaven and earth, a power that reaches to the heavens and covers the sky connects to the heavens and the earth, and within this wave of energy that radiates endless light, the Literary Talent Qi Inscriptions is actually dark gold.
This is an extremely special power, much stronger than the power condensed from the Literary Talent Qi Inscriptions. What shocked Yang Zhen the most was that this power could actually resonate with the " Tao Te Ching " in his mind.
Yang Zhen's expression shifted, and he suddenly understood why the Shameless Cat had caused such a commotion in Tieling City, drawing the attention of many people to Yang Zhen who arrived later, and even involving Great Master Su.
It turns out that the Shameless Cat had his eye on that Star Literary Talent Qi, and this Star Literary Talent Qi actually had a great effect on Yang Zhen!
The Tao Te Ching had been quietly suspended within Yang Zhen's Divine Sense space all along, remaining unmoved no matter how Yang Zhen tried to activate it. Now, however, it had reacted under the influence of this wisp of Star Literary Talent Qi. Naturally, Yang Zhen had no reason to miss this opportunity.
At this moment, Great Master Su suddenly trembled, looking at Yang Zhen with surprise and uncertainty. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything. Instead, she looked at Yang Zhen meaningfully and said, "This is the Star Literary Talent Qi. I'm sure Young Master Yang is already familiar with it, isn't he?"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding group of people were completely bewildered, having no idea what the two were talking about.
In the entire Tieling City, only Great Master Su possesses the Star Literary Talent Qi. Why would Great Master Su say that Yang Zhen is no stranger to this power?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yang Zhen suddenly winked at Great Master Su Dajia and asked, "You seem to have seen something; this Star Literary Talent Qi is indeed extraordinary."
Great Master Su chuckled and shook her head, saying, "Young Master Yang misunderstands. I didn't see anything, but I had a feeling that your ascent of the bell tower would surely surprise everyone. No wonder that cat said my talent is inferior to yours."
Everyone was taken aback by Great Master Su's words, staring at Great Master Su in disbelief as if trying to understand why Great Master Su was so humble, admitting her inferiority to Yang Zhen.
Gan Bailin's expression was gloomy and uncertain. He stared intently at Yang Zhen, let out a cold snort, and even the excitement he had felt about having the chance to climb the Bell Terrace had vanished.
With that, Gan Bailin took a deep breath, gave Yang Zhen and Great Master Su a meaningful look, and muttered to himself, "You will regret this. I, Gan, will show you who the true chosen one is!"
Yang Zhen had initially assumed the clock tower's Bell Terrace was located within the clock tower itself. However, when Great Master Su led the group out of the clock tower and onto a flying boat, Yang Zhen suddenly realized what was happening and turned to ask, "Where are we going?"
Gan Bailin laughed heartily, looking at Yang Zhen with a mocking expression, and said, "You don't actually think the Bell Terrace is on this clock tower, do you?"
Yang Zhen glanced at Gan Bailin indifferently and said, "Where the Bell Terrace is is none of my business. What I think is none of your concern."
"You..." Gan Bailin snorted coldly, saying, "I hope you can still be so calm later!"
"Don't worry about that, this Sage of Saunter's egg is always firmly planted!"
