Leveling System of Acquiring Skill From Books

Tan Ann laughed maniacally. His eyes were full of contempt and disdain.    

In fact, Tan Ann pretended to be very strong on the outside, but he was very scared in his heart.    

The strength that Ye Chen showed was incomparable. How could the first half of the couplets that made him think for so long be ordinary?    

If this was a couplet that was difficult to answer, then he would lose all face.    

Ye Chen was so angry that he glanced at him. "You want to die so badly, yet you are in such a hurry. I really don't know what you are thinking. How about this? As long as you can tell me the second half of the couplet I gave you, you win. How about it?"    

"Really?"    

A flash of joy appeared in Tan Ann's eyes.    

There was a big loophole in Ye Chen's words. He did not ask for the quality of the couplets.    

If he casually said the second half of the couplets, even if it was not perfect, he would still win?    

"That's right, but the couplets must conform to the rules." Ye Chen said with a smile.    

"You deliberately tricked me."    

"Why did you say I was fooling you?"    

"Hmph, I don't want to talk about this anymore. Hurry up and give me the question."    

Ye Chen held his chin and pondered for a while. He said, "The first half of the couplet: The widow is waiting by the cold window for her husband who will never come back. Tell me the second half of the couplet."    

When they heard the first half of the couplet, everyone fell silent.    

This couplet sounded ordinary, but with Ye Chen's strength, how could it be so simple?    

Elder Huangfu was suddenly shocked and said with joy, "Haha, it's really a good couplet!"    

Everyone was puzzled and looked at the old man with puzzlement.    

Huangfu smiled faintly and said, "You may not feel anything when you listen to this couplet, but if you write it down, it will be clear at a glance."    

As he spoke, a piece of paper suddenly appeared in front of Huangfu. An uncontrolled brush swiftly drew on it.    

A vigorous and powerful calligraphy piece appeared in front of everyone.    

"I understand. The structure of this couplet is very good!"    

"That's right. Furthermore, the meaning of this couplet is profound. Just from the words alone, I can feel a sense of sorrow."    

"This couplet is really awesome! The meaning of this couplet was smooth. If Scholar Tan Ann did not have a sudden inspiration, he might lose. "    

Tan Ann instantly fell into deep thought.    

He racked his brain and started to think. Time passed minute by minute.    

Everyone became more and more impatient.    

"Tan Ann, if you can't think of the second half of the couplet, just admit defeat."    

"Mr. Ye's talent is too amazing. You can't even be compared with him."    

"Don't waste everyone's time. We still want to see the battle between Mr. Ye and Elder Huangfu."    

Tan Ann was getting more and more anxious. Sweat even appeared on his forehead.    

Finally.    

He had an idea and immediately said, "I think of something. The second half was: The sea of tears in the desert is rising "    

He finished speaking.    

Everyone's eyes lit up.    

They didn't expect him to think of the second half of the couplet.    

And the second half of the couplet was logical.    

Ye Chen said disdainfully, "No! You useless person."    

"What right do you have to say that?" Tan Ann didn't believe it.    

"You should ask Elder Huangfu."    

Huangfu sighed lightly. "Tan Ann, it is indeed not right. First of all, your couplets do not read beautifully. Second, the first half of the couplet was full of emotion, expressing a kind of loneliness and sorrow that seemed to be ten thousand years long until death. And the second half of the couplet is devoid of emotions, lacking a sense of loneliness. So, the second half of the couplet is wrong."    

" Okay, then I'll continue to think "    

Tan Ann seemed to have fallen into madness.    

He was thinking about the second half.    

Suddenly, he had an idea.    

"[Distance surpassing the Dao, Unfettered]"    

Ye Chen was stunned.    

"Not bad! The artistic conception was so-so, but the format was not neat. "    

"Return the lotus to freedom."    

Ye Chen said with an indifferent tone, "That's not right."    

He had to admit that Tan Ann did have some strength. He could actually make so many second verse.    

But Ye Chen's first verse was too perfect. It made all the second verse appear to be eclipsed.    

"Then what is it?"    

Tan Ann kept patting his head on the high platform, roaring crazily.    

More and more red veins appeared in his eyes, as if he had gone mad.    

Elder Huangfu was a person who cherished talents. He didn't want Tan Ann to destroy the rest of his life.    

He said, "Tan Ann, just admit defeat! You have already reached your current limit. Learning is unlimited. You can learn it in the future."    

" No, I have to think of it. "    

Tan Ann continued to think. No matter what he thought, he could not form a perfect couplet.    

"Ye Chen, what do you think the second half is? Don't you have a perfect second half?"    

Ye Chen looked at him helplessly.    

It was over.    

He had gone crazy.    

Ye Chen innocently waved his hands at Huangfu, indicating that he could not be blamed for this.    

Huangfu nodded in understanding.    

"Oung Fellow Daoist Ye, announce the second half."    

"Okay. Actually, the second half was not difficult. It was called, Tolerance of Honey to set up the Ann family. It is to say that if a person is tolerant, he will no longer be lonely."    

" That's right. "    

Tan Ann's doubts were immediately resolved, and he spat out the blood clot.    

This made him feel much better.    

However, his eyes were still filled with resentment as he looked at Ye Chen.    

Ye Chen had caused him to lose all face. How could he be a person in the future?    

If he did not take revenge for this, he swore that he would not be a human anymore.    

Ye Chen could see the resentment in his heart, but he did not care.    

He was a Nascent Soul Stage. Once he recovered his strength, he could torture Tan Ann with just a wave of his hand.    

"Old man, can I challenge you this time?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.    

Huangfu smiled bitterly and waved his hand helplessly.    

"I won't compete with you anymore. Even I am not your match. Your talent is really amazing."    

"What?"    

The audience below the stage let out a series of exclamations, their faces filled with shock.    

As the number one scholar in Pingtian Academy, Elder Huangfu actually admitted defeat?    

How was this possible?    

Could it be that Ye Chen's talent was more than enough to surpass his?    

Ye Chen said faintly, "Alright then. Anyway, I am tired."    

After that, Ye Chen kept staring at him.    

Huangfu smiled slightly, and his face was full of kindness.    

"This is my Craft Refining Recipe. I will pass it to you now."    

An ancient book floated towards Ye Chen.    

Ye Chen caught it and gently stroked it. Instantly, an endless sense of knowledge invaded his entire body.    

It was indeed extraordinary.    

Ye Chen was anxious and quickly flipped a few pages.    

"No, Elder Huangfu, you can't pass the Craft Refining Recipe to Ye Chen. Isn't this breaking the rules?"
