Chapter 139 Racing Against Time
After this dazzling star appeared, not only Chen Tianjian and his group, but also Ye Ru and his group, all had their pupils shrink.
"Is it also about the heart of a scholar?"
The heart of a scholar is elusive and hard to find; only those with the right affinity can possess it. Everyone knows what this heart of a scholar means to a reader, but this national competition has allowed them to witness two such hearts.
"Damn it! I originally wanted to take this opportunity to greatly enhance my literary reputation, but now Ye Ru and this guy have ruined it all!"
Fan Ziling took a deep breath, suppressing the rage within her.
"It is truly shameful that our noble family of saints has to rely on a disciple from a humble background to turn the tide."
Dong Qi sighed and began writing the Analects, stroke by stroke.
The two wrote rapidly, one after the other, but Xiao Wenqi took the initiative, and the quality of his writing was better than Ye Ru's, which put Ye Ru at a disadvantage from the start.
"Although Ye Ru is at a disadvantage, it will probably not be easy for this Jin man to achieve good results."
Wen Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the Jin man and said.
"Let's wait and see..."
Chen Tianjian rubbed his temples and said.
"rustle……"
Everyone was writing at lightning speed, and Ye Ru was racing against time to surpass Xiao Wenqi's writing speed. He knew that this was not only his personal glory, but also the prestige of the entire Yanhuang Kingdom, so he had to be serious!
All the scholars in the audience looked at Ye Ru. At this moment, Ye Ru had become the focus of everyone's attention. Now everyone's perception of this poor scholar had undergone a tremendous change.
At this moment, Ye Ru had become the only person who could rival that Jin man.
Will Ye Ru be able to turn the tide and avenge the humiliation inflicted on the scholars of Yanhuang Kingdom by his own efforts, or will he die in bitterness, adding a shameful chapter to the history of Yanhuang Kingdom by the people of Jin Kingdom?
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Ye Ru looked solemn as he rapidly flipped through the Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries), his hand holding the pen constantly waving, trying to catch up with Xiao Wenqi.
The others swallowed hard, their faces filled with shock. They now realized that Ye Ru's true talent and learning were not just empty words!
The entire competition venue was quiet, with only the sound of Ye Rufei and Xiao Wenfei writing rapidly and the rapid breathing of the crowd.
After all, Ye Ru possessed a scholarly heart, and Xiao Wenqi also possessed one, and it seemed that the quality of his was much better than Ye Ru's.
"Quickly..."
Some of the scholars below whispered that everyone has a sense of belonging to the country, and they naturally do not want an enemy country to win this national competition between the students of Yan and Huang.
"Phew, it seems Ye Ru is still a bit short-handed, while that person was able to write so quickly. Even a scholar wouldn't have such talent."
Kong Hexuan's gaze lingered on Ye Ru and Xiao Wenqi, his heart filled with worry.
squeak!
At this moment, Xiao Wenqi suddenly stopped writing, put the stack of papers aside, and began to write the Book of Documents.
"This man from the state of Jin actually finished writing the Analects."
"Hurry up, we must surpass this person!"
Countless people whispered among themselves, and a sense of anxiety and righteous indignation also emerged.
"It seems you're still no good. How can a sparrow's talent compare to a swan's? You're just humiliating yourself."
Xiao Wenqi shrugged, a mocking smile on his face, and then laughed.
"Chief Ye, we are entrusting our Yanhuang Kingdom to you. If you lose, you will truly have no face to face the people of Jiangdong."
Han Lu shouted loudly, drawing angry stares from countless people.
Everyone knew the provocation and humiliation in Han Lu's words.
"How could Legalists be so shameless?"
Kong Hexuan gave Han Lu a disgusted look.
Ye Ru ignored these people and pushed the power of his writing to its limit, writing rapidly. After a few more minutes, Ye Ru finally finished writing the entire Analects.
In just a moment, Ye Ru began writing the Book of Documents again.
This fierce battle had many people clenching their fists, their eyes burning with fervor. This contest undoubtedly got everyone's blood pumping.
Do you think Ye Ru will succeed?
Chen Tianjian looked at Wen Xiang and stood up nervously.
"It's hard to say. Xiao Wenqi's talent surpasses that of all the other students present, and he also has the blessing of the Book Heart. I find it hard to believe that he is really a student, or that he shattered his Book Heart and was demoted to a student, but his memories and Book Heart are still intact."
Wen Xiang shook his head, seemingly noticing something strange.
At the competition venue, Ye Ru and Xiao Wenqi each had their own table and were vying to write the Book of Documents. The two writings complemented each other so much that everyone dared not even breathe.
"Xiao Wenqi's version of the Book of Documents has already reached the chapter on the Shang section..."
Kong Hexuan, who was close to Xiao Wenqi, saw the black characters and spoke softly, causing everyone's expressions to tense up.
Squinting, Ye Ru stared intently at the Xuan paper, afraid that if he wrote a single wrong word, it would be all over.
"No, the opponent's knowledge of books is stronger than mine. Even if I have the Complete Library of the Four Treasuries, I can't widen the gap between the two of us. I will definitely lose in the end."
A look of madness flashed across Ye Ru's face. Then, he gripped his left hand, and the Wolf Wind Pen appeared in a flash. He quickly divided some paper into two parts, and the Wolf Wind Pen in his left hand suddenly stopped on the paper.
"What is he doing! Doing two or more things at the same time will interfere with each other. If he is not careful, he may lose all his previous efforts!"
Seeing Ye Ru's sudden action, Wen Xiang stood up abruptly, his face turning extremely horrified.
"What is Ye Ru up to? Is he really going to use both hands? Impulsive!"
Kong Hexuan, Meng Qingyang, and the others gasped in shock upon seeing Ye Ru's actions, their faces filled with astonishment, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Two hands?"
Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Ye Ru used both hands, and with the help of the Book Heart, his writing speed increased by another third!
"Everyone in the Yanhuang Kingdom is a madman!"
Seeing this, Xiao Wenqi, who had been sneering, turned pale. He hadn't expected Ye Ru to be so crazy, doing so much just to prevent the Yanhuang Kingdom from being humiliated again.
Countless people who saw Ye Ru were filled with admiration. What they considered an impossible task had been accomplished so easily by him.
A look of horror appeared on the Left Prime Minister's face. Ye Rujian had taken an unorthodox approach, just to catch up with Xiao Wenqi.
"Ye Ru's move shows a deep understanding of Xiang Yu's strategy of burning his boats and breaking the cauldrons, but if there isn't enough paper or the paper isn't coherent, it will still fail..."
Chen Tianjian snapped out of his shock, swallowed hard, and still looked uneasy.
"No...it seems he wrote it backwards..."
Wen Xiang stared intently at the piece of paper in Ye Ru's left hand, on which was written:
"The people of Qingzhi value integrity and honor, and cherish the land of Rong..."
Chen Tianjian followed the gaze and when he saw the characters Ye Ru was writing rapidly with his left hand, a look of shock quietly crept onto his face, and his heart was also like a stormy sea!
"Recite it backwards fluently?"
