970 Who is Getting Exactly What He Wants (1/2)
”Brother Mo had said earlier, that Chess Saint had presented him with the first line of a couplet during their match. Today, since we do not have any better topics, why don't we borrow this line and compete with Brother Mo. If Brother Mo is able to come up with a matching line on the spot, this round shall be our loss! Wouldn't that be clean and nimble?” Zhan Yu Shu said.
”Yu Shu, this idea of yours is too marvelous.” Zhan Qing Feng nodded his head gently. ”Let's do it this way.”
These two brothers echoed each other. Even though no one helped respond to them, in their own little act, they had decided on the third topic!
Miao Xiao Miao, Jun Mo Xie, and all the audience present felt their jaws hanging. This is too despicable, isn't it?!
To be so shameless like this, this was no longer a realm—it was a complete domain!
Everyone said that he did not manage to match it, and this first line had come from the person himself, but right now, you two are actually using it to make things difficult for him?? This is too crafty, ah!
”How can this be accepted!” Miao Xiao Miao's face turned red from anger. ”This first line had come from Brother Mo. If he uses this to test you, then it is still acceptable. But today, you guys use it to compete with him instead… Zhan Yu Shu, do you still know how to write the word 'shameless'?”
”Little Sister Xiao Miao is too harsh in your words. This is the question that the Chess Saint had given Brother Mo. We are only trying to accomplish his wishes and hope that Brother Mo is able to match it soon. Using it as test is merely giving Brother Mo a greater motivation, and I believe Brother Mo is able to understand the good intentions of us brothers…” Zhan Qing Feng said with a smile.
”Haha… In this way, aren't you guys doing a good deed? Should Chess Saint Hua Wu Cuo or Brother Mo be grateful to both of you? This is preposterous!” Miao Xiao Miao scoffed from anger.
”That would be unnecessary. We do not care if he is grateful or not. As long as Brother Mo is able to come up with the next line, the Chess Saint will have his wishes fulfilled. Even if we were to lose another round, there is nothing wrong about it…” Zhan Yu Shu chuckled, replying shamelessly.
”I've really broadened my horizons seeing someone who is capable of being as shameless as you two! Truly, the more despicable a person, the more invincible he is!” Miao Xiao Miao said disdainfully. ”The mighty reputation of the Zhan Family of the Misty Illusory Manor is going to spread far and wide in the whole of Misty Illusory Manor. Truly worthy of celebration.”
Just when Zhan Yu Shu brought up this method of competition, Jun Mo Xie practically burst out laughing. F*ck, you guys are so gullible! I said I didn't manage to come up with a line that matches and you really believed it?
This first line of the couplet doesn't look fake upon first glance. But the five thousand years of Chinese history has countless of talents. Even this couplet, with the first line, it doesn't take long for the second line to be created! There is no need to rush; as long as the crux is figured out, it is not difficult to match it! You two idiots! Two idiots who thought you got what you want!
”The shamelessness of you two honorable brothers can really be said to have reached an exquisite realm.” Jun Mo Xie clicked his tongue. ”To use the past I've mentioned to test this prodigy… Both of your quick-wittedness is truly impressive, ah, this prodigy cannot help but want to write a word of 'convinced' ah. I'm truly convinced and full of admiration.”
Zhan Yu Shu's face flushed red. He said in a rude and unreasonable manner. ”The third round: we just want to compete matching the couplet! If you are able to match the first line of the couplet we had given, then it's your victory. Otherwise, you lose! It's just that simple! Listen up, the first line we are giving you is: Heaven as the chessboard, stars as chess pieces. Who is able to play it? Great prodigy Mo, please come up with a matching line!”
”Nonsense! I had already said earlier, when Hua Wu Cuo presented this line, I was not able to come up with a second line that matches! Today, you just purposely used this to make things difficult. What are your intentions? Besides, since when did the ownership of this first line become yours? I say, can the Zhan Family still get anymore shameless? Do you still have any dignity of an influential family?!”
Jun Mo Xie chided, pretending to be furious.
”Why, is great prodigy Mo scared?” Looking at this Free and Natural Physique suddenly losing his calm appearance, Zhan Yu Shu couldn't help but laugh at his misery. Thank goodness you gave me a good topic; how can you quickly come up with a good match to this excellent and absolute line? Especially when he admits himself that he is unable to come up with a second line. It is truly the best method to making things difficult ah…
Otherwise, I really don't know of anyone else who can baffle you… This time, it is you who lifted up the rock to slam it on your own feet, shattering it completely, this sort of feeling is truly too exhilarating…
”I refuse to accept this method of competition!” Jun Mo Xie said, as if he were extremely upset. ”You are just making trouble without reason!”
”Then does this mean… great prodigy Mo is ready to admit defeat?” Zhan Qing Feng asked eerily.
”Ridiculous! How can I admit defeat? How can I lose?!” Jun Mo Xie put on an expression as if he were pretending to be strong to hide his weakness. ”I just need time to think.”
