With a gentle shake fro Xuan, the ink on the xuan paper flowed down The ether by a dark stroke, for pluh formed a black dry tree bark, on which, plu rather desolate fro, as if the bitter winter had struck
The location where the savage beast fell for boulders, and thedepths on the surface of the boulder
Plurew fro proudly in the frigid weather Ji Mo gongzi made use of a field of flowers to accentuate the nobility of the peony On the other hand, these plum blossoms didn't have any other flowers to cohtiness, with nothing that dared to vie with it, that there was no one that did not fear to stand beside it
Even without the intention to vie for supremacy, it was able to surpass the radiance of all other flowers
Upon seeing this flower, one could ale of the world So what if they disregard me? So what if they don't understand me? All I desire is to stand proud and re?”
”I feel as though I saw a man uncomprehended by the world, but even so, he continued to step forward bravely, without the slightest intention to retreat!”
”Is this the third level of painting, Infused Intentions?”
”That must be it! Otherwise, it is impossible for our elance”
The surroundings fell silent
In that moment, many people's e, and their eyes reddened in agitation
A painting with high artistic conception is able to influence the state ofis one such e beast has reached the third level, Infused Intentions?”
Seeing the crowd being influenced by the desolate beauty of the winter plu's mouth quivered, and his body trembled
Since others were able to tell the level of the painting, naturally, he did so quickly With just a shake of the painting, the other party was able to turn a nothing into aoverwhelh in an instant
Even they, as 2-star painters, would need a long period of preparation before they can create a painting of such level
Yet, for a savage beast to create such a painting by walking a few steps, rolling about, followed by a ht before their eyes, they nevertheless couldn't help but suspect that it was a dream
It was inconceivable
”The crux to the painting is that final shake!”
Vice Guild Leader Wu conte, ”How much ink is left on the xuan paper, how one should shake it, and how much force should one use, one has to take all of these into account to determine the flow of the ink to for One has to imprint and remember all of these details perfectly into htest error could spell failure!”
”Indeed It may seem simple, but it is actually a profound movement With different ink and paper, the effects would be different To be able to reach such a state with aEven I would be unable to do it”
Even though he was reluctant to adreee beast as in charge of painting; the youngster didn't do anything at all However, thewas the final shake It was just like adding the eyes to a painted dragon; with the slightest error, the result would be co Xuan's perfect control over the final shake, this painting of the third level would be nothing at all
And for hith and
This ! He knehat the product would be, and what level it would reach
This required a profound understanding of painting! For one to picture what the co would be like down to the uild leader, a 3-star painter, would be incapable of such a feat!
”This i the stalk of pluleefully waiting for Zhang Xuan to ered backward in shock His face paled and looked as if he were going insane
The other party had just randoe beast into a pool of ink and threw it on a xuan paper, and it beca of the third level
When did a painting of the third level become so easy to create?
He had worked so hard, to the point that he al to reach this level Yet, the other party easily
It can’t be that reen-robed attendant who had brought Zhang Xuan in was also yanking at his ears If not for the inappropriate occasion, he would have gone on a rae by now
As an attendant of the Painter Guild, he earned a old coins a es would only reach ten thousand Yet, the other party was able to create a painting which orth several e beast on a paper
The heck!
Why was he working so hard then! If he were to capture the savage beast to draw for hi become a millionaire?
The numerous apprentices who carried the tables before also felt tears welling up in their eyes
Of them, there were those who had spentcould only reach the level of Reality Depiction at best Spiritual Canvas and Infused Intentions ay out of their reach, and they didn't dare to think about it
Seeing a savage beast produce a better painting that they could, in that instant, they felt that all of their hard work in the past few years had been completely useless
It was already a miracle that they didn't break down on the spot
”The two vice guild leaders, may I knohether it istake the shape as he had planned, Zhang Xuan turned to the two elders with a suild leaders thought, the crux to the painting was his final shake
Even if he was able to control the savage beast perfectly, how could this create a painting of the third level?
In order to turn the ink-filled paper into a co with his final shake, he had to make use of the ability of the Library of Heaven's Path to avoid all mistakes
Since there were no mistakes in his , the strength, the shakingthe paper All of these had to be paid attention to A single error would cause the entire painting to fall apart
It was fortunate that he succeeded
”This”
The two vice guild leaders glanced at one another
”Your Winter Plu have both reached the third level Even though the two paintings are of completely different style, they are both on the sa for adeclared, ” it is a draw!”
”Draw?”
Zhang Xuan shook his head, although he had expected such a situation
In terher standard than Ji Mo gongzi's Peony Painting However, as their coer at stake, and the latter would be a future elite of the Painter Guild if he were declared to be the loser, wouldn't that uild for good?
If that really happened, they would have to lose a valuable talent
Declaring that it was a draw could avoid offending any of the two parties In a sense, it was the perfect conclusion
Of course, this Ji Mo gongzi wouldn't appear as dashi+ng as he was before Even though it was a draw, it ith a savage beast In other words, he was no different from a beast Noabout hiht The other party had it co
”A draw? To think that it would be a draw!”
”This is for the best”
”That's right, it's best not to sully the har fellow painters”
