Chapter 190 Raise Your Hand to See Who Is Superior, Lower Your Head to See Who Lives and Who Dies

Unbelievable!

Everyone was shocked, their eyes were full of shock, they couldn't believe this was true.

Ji Chen actually completed five second couplets in a short period of time. Each one was so neat and flawless.

The five second lines satirize five human phenomena.

Zhao Qingcheng and Xia Liyun were also shocked, looking at Ji Chen in disbelief, unable to believe it.

Xia Ziran and Lin Yunhai just stayed on the spot, their brains shut down.

All the Confucian students in the courtyard were amazed. They had been thinking hard and had no clue. Ji Chen actually came up with five second couplets in a matter of seconds.

This is the gap.

Fang Jingyu and Xu Wensheng's faces turned pale, and they couldn't accept the result even more. Every time Ji Chen made a second line, their faces became paler.

The five second lines shattered all their confidence and pride.

Especially Xu Wensheng, the field he was proud of was so vulnerable to Ji Chen.

Are people with the qualifications of a literary saint really so terrifying?

At this time, Ji Chen's voice sounded again.

"In addition, I will give you a couplet. There are three masters in one city and two courtyards. They don't know the Four Books, Five Classics and Six Meanings, and they dare to teach seven or eighty-nine students. It is very bold."

Wow!

The whole hospital was in an uproar!

This first couplet is a strong irony of Luocheng Academy, because Luocheng Academy has two courtyards, the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard.

Ji Chen directly scolded Luocheng Academy both inside and outside.

In an instant, all the Confucian scholars in Luocheng Academy were angry. Ji Chen's half-couple was not only ironic, but also humiliating. Especially after they lost to Ji Chen, this feeling of humiliation became even stronger.

Xu Wensheng's face turned red, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore. He spat out a mouthful of blood, lay down on the table, and passed out.

This sudden scene shocked everyone, and the blood spurting of the couplet was rarely seen in the world.

The Confucian scholar next to him quickly checked Xu Wensheng's body.

After careful inspection, I found out that it was just a result of a sudden attack on the heart and blood stasis, so I breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's just that the anxiety attacks my heart, and the faintness passes."

Under the treatment of several Confucian scholars from Luocheng Academy, Xu Wensheng woke up slowly. His face was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood, and his eyes were lifeless.

All the Confucian scholars sighed, Xu Wensheng was ruined. He was defeated in his strongest field, all his self-confidence was shattered, his Taoist heart was shattered, his literary palace collapsed, and his future was ruined.

This is the struggle between scholars. There is no light or shadow, but it is extremely dangerous. One wrong step can ruin the future.

Fang Jingyu's eyes were red with anger, and he roared in an almost crazy voice.

"Ji Beigui! I want to challenge you to a sword fight. Do you dare to accept it?"

Luocheng Academy lost to Ji Chen again and again, losing all face, and even Xu Wensheng's Wen Palace collapsed.

The most important thing is that Ji Chen dared to use the couplet to humiliate Luocheng Academy. This was unacceptable to him. If you insult Luocheng Academy, you will die.

He challenged Ji Chen to a sword fight.

Ji Chen said: "Yes, but before that, we must settle the account first."

"How many spiritual stones, I owe you an IOU."

Fang Jingyu has gone crazy. He just wants to fight Ji Chen in a sword fight, come back in the last round, and trample Ji Chen under his feet to avenge his humiliation.

Ji Chen chuckled, "Based on the forty kilograms of spiritual stone, I made a total of five second couplets. Each second couplet was doubled, which is one thousand two hundred and eighty kilograms."

For a moment, everyone was stunned. One thousand, two hundred and eighty kilograms of spiritual stones?

How come there are so many?

Was there a miscalculation?

This is definitely a huge number. Not to mention ordinary wealthy clans, even those famous families may not be able to come up with it.

"That's nonsense, how could there be so many?"

Even Fang Jingyu was shocked by this huge number. One thousand, two hundred and eighty kilograms of spiritual stones, even if Fang was hollowed out, he couldn't get it out.

Ji Chen chuckled lightly, "Are all the people taught at Luocheng Academy a waste like you? They can't even do such simple math."

"Listen, let me calculate it for you. The winning number is forty kilograms. Double it and it will be eighty kilograms. Double it again and it will be one hundred and sixty kilograms. The third time will be three hundred and twenty kilograms. The fourth time will be six hundred and fourty kilograms. Ten kilograms, fifth times one thousand two hundred and eighty kilograms."

Ji Chen did the calculation again, and everyone was surprised. It wasn't that they didn't know, but they were shocked when he did the calculation. The calculation is indeed correct, but it is too scary. Five times the weight is 1,280 kilograms.

Looking at Fang Jingyu's expression of disbelief, Ji Chen said, "Are you in disbelief, or are you planning not to admit it? The scholars here are all witnesses. If you admit it, you, Luocheng Academy, cannot afford to lose, or If you, Fang, can’t afford to lose, I don’t need this spiritual stone.”

"I sign!"

Fang Jingyu gritted his teeth, picked up his pen, and wrote an IOU for one thousand two hundred and eighty kilograms of spiritual stones.

If you say it out loud, the water will be thrown out. With so many scholars watching, it is really impossible to deny it.

He didn't believe that Ji Chen really had the guts to go to Fang's with an IOU and ask for money.

As long as you dare to go, I dare to let you go and never come back.

After the IOU was written, Zhao Qingcheng and Xia Liyun were also asked to sign as witnesses.

Then the maid took all the lottery winnings and placed them on Ji Chen's table.

Ji Chen returned twenty kilograms of spiritual stones to Xia Ziran, and then put the IOU and the remaining twenty kilograms of spiritual stones into the ring.

Fang Jingyu said: "I'm going to fight with you now. Please witness these two noble men. If I beat you by even one move, I want you to kneel down and apologize to me, Luocheng Academy, and admit that Liangzhou Academy is not as good as Luocheng Academy."

Scholars fight with swords, they compete in their understanding and comprehension of swordsmanship, they compete in skills, and they stop when they reach the limit. But Fang Jingyu had the intention to kill. Although the sword fight is to stop when it reaches the limit, the sword has no eyes, and sometimes he can't stop. He wants to use the opportunity of the sword fight to destroy Ji Chen, firstly, he can avenge the previous shame, and secondly, he can step on Ji Chen to establish his reputation.

Ji Chen's poem caused a shocking phenomenon. If he can beat Ji Chen, it can prove that he is stronger than Ji Chen.

Zhao Qingcheng frowned slightly. She was so sensitive to killing intentions that she sensed it almost the moment Fang Jingyu showed his killing intentions.

Little did she know that Ji Chen was even more sensitive to killing intentions.

He said, "Sword fighting is a childish trick. I can't do it!"

Fang Jingyu looked at Ji Chen coldly and sneered, "As a scholar, if you can't even fight with a sword, what can you do?"

Ji Chen said, "I can only fight. I can see who is better by raising my hands and decide life and death by lowering my head."

"Oh! What a big tone." A Confucian scholar from Luocheng Academy said sarcastically, "You can't control your own strength, which proves that you haven't practiced swordsmanship to the fullest. A true swordsman master can grasp every bit of strength and pierce the wings of a fly without hurting his life."

"That's right, you can't even use a sword!"

Other Confucian scholars from Luocheng Academy also followed suit. They knew Fang Jingyu's intention and wanted to use the rules of sword fighting to restrain Ji Chen and make him feel restrained when fighting with swords.

They used to do this and were always successful.

At this time, another Confucian scholar said, "I think you don't dare to compete, for fear that your status as a literary sage will be lost if you lose."

"You don't even dare to fight with swords, the poet sage, huh! Nothing special."

Several people mocked, trying to use provocation to make Ji Chen agree to fight with swords under their conditions.
