The news that the freshman campus idol Luo Yu was going to compete with the president of the sophomore calligraphy club had spread, so quite a few people came to watch the next day.

As the person involved, Bai Xiaoxue was of course also here. She walked towards the red-haired young man with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Brother Xu, what are you doing?" Bai Xiaoxue felt her heart clench as she looked at Luo Yu, who was looking at her with indifference. Although she was surprised and disappointed when she heard that Luo Yu had a girlfriend yesterday, after all, she had asked others before and they knew that Luo Yu didn't have a girlfriend. So when she heard Xie Minna say that she was Luo Yu's girlfriend, Bai Xiaoxue couldn't accept it for a while.

It wasn't like she hadn't had some good boys before, but Bai Xiaoxue, always a dancer, wanted to find someone who could move her heart and connect with her. Finally, at the welcome party, she found him. When Luo Yu played the piano and sang, and his eyes met hers, she truly believed they were in love, a fate that was ultimately met with regret. After their performance, she felt reluctant to let him go and asked around for information about him.

She knew Luo Yu was the top scorer in this year's college entrance exam, achieving a perfect score. She knew Luo Yu not only played the piano and sang, but also could cook, his culinary skills rivaling those of a five-star chef. She also knew Luo Yu had never had a girlfriend, and like her, his romantic life was completely blank. Coupled with Luo Yu's breathtakingly perfect looks and elegant demeanor, Bai Xiaoxue was captivated. She felt like she had finally found the man she'd always wanted. However, after finally mustering the courage to ask Luo Yu out, the shy Bai Xiaoxue was abruptly shattered by Xie Minna.

Bai Xiaoxue is a person who cannot hide her emotions, so when others saw her distraught look, coupled with the rumors that spread quickly, Bai Xiaoxue's cousin Zeng Xu found Luo Yu.

"Xiaoxue, don't worry about it. If someone dares to bully you, I won't let him off easily. Just wait for him to kneel down and apologize to you in public." Zeng Xu said to Bai Xiaoxue comfortingly.

"No..." Bai Xiaoxue was on the verge of tears. She hadn't meant to teach Luo Yu a lesson; it was all a misunderstanding. But in Zeng Xu's eyes, Bai Xiaoxue must have suffered a great injustice. Otherwise, why would such a strong cousin be so tearful? He mentally took a hard umbrage against Luo Yu.

"Luo Yu, how about it, are you ready?" Zeng Xu couldn't wait to make Luo Yu look bad.

"I'm at your service anytime." Zeng Xu's way of looking at people with his chin raised reminded Luo Yu of the previous Sun Minghao, but the current Sun Minghao was obviously improved compared to before. Although he was still a little rebellious, he would not show his inner emotions in front of others and had learned to be patient.

"Okay, let's start. There's no limit to the topic. I'll go first." Zeng Xu picked up the brush and began to build up emotions.

The calligraphy club wasn't very large. Besides a few members, most people were there to watch the fun. Although Luo Yu was also a member, he had just applied and had never shown his calligraphy to anyone. Therefore, none of the members knew how good Luo Yu's calligraphy was, and naturally, they were not optimistic about him. After all, Zeng Xu's position as the club's vice president was no empty title.

Knowing Zeng Xu was stirring up his temper, the people in the calligraphy club dared not utter a word, even breathing softly, to avoid disturbing him. Finally, after two minutes, Zeng Xu moved.

A fine brush dipped in ink flowed across the rice paper, creating a fluent, flowing pattern. Zeng Xu finished a poem, and when he paused, the calligraphy club members applauded.

"Well, Vice President, your handwriting is really good, and it seems to be even better than before."

"Yes, because he wants to participate in this year's calligraphy competition, the vice president has put a lot of effort into practicing."

"Luo Yu is definitely going to lose this time."

"That's right. In the calligraphy club, apart from the president, no one can beat the vice president."

"However, wouldn't it be inappropriate for the vice president to do this? After all, Luo Yu is still a newcomer."

"We can't help it. It's that newbie who offended the fairy. Everyone knows our vice president is a sister complex. If he offended the fairy, he would have offended our vice president. Besides, since that newbie also joined our calligraphy club, it proves that he can write calligraphy too, but his skills are not as good as others. It's not unfair for him to lose to our vice president."

…

"Luo Yu..." He Yunfei looked at Luo Yu worriedly. He Zhenggang stood behind him, silent, but his eyes showed his worry for Luo Yu. Many classmates also came over. After spending so much time with Luo Yu, everyone had a good impression of him, so they all came to support him.

Sun Minghao, He Jiazhi and the other two who had heard the news wanted to come, but couldn't because they had classes in the afternoon. However, Professor Guo Jinyao, who had somehow gotten the news, dragged a calligraphy teacher over to watch the fun. If it were anyone else, Guo Jinyao really wouldn't be interested, but when he heard the name Luo Yu, his first reaction was that there was something exciting to watch.

Although Guo Jinyao didn't know anything about calligraphy, the calligraphy teacher around him could see it.

"Well, Zeng Xu's calligraphy is quite good, combining strength and softness. It's improved a lot compared to last year. It seems that losing the calligraphy competition last year was a big blow to him."

"Is it as good as you say?" Guo Jinyao looked doubtful.

"Of course, maybe after a while, Zeng Xu will be able to catch up with me. He's very talented." The calligraphy teacher's words showed his admiration for Zeng Xu. "That handsome boy is Luo Yu, right? I think he's definitely going to lose this time."

"That may not be the case." On the contrary, no matter how good the calligraphy teacher said Zeng Xu was, Guo Jinyao was still optimistic about Luo Yu. He didn't know why he just believed that Luo Yu would win.

He was in a very good state today. Seeing the words he wrote, Zeng Xu looked very satisfied. Then he looked at Luo Yu with some disdain, "It's not too late for you to admit defeat now. I don't need you to kneel down. Just bow to Xiaoxue and apologize." It seemed that Zeng Xu had already concluded that he had won.

"What? Luo Yu hasn't even written yet, how does he know he's going to win? Luo Yu, don't be afraid, keep going, we believe you will win."

"That's right, the one who abused him is even more arrogant than me."

"Luo Yu, we support you, go ahead."

…

Most of those who supported Luo Yu were his classmates, while the others were just there to watch the fun. Although they knew Luo Yu, they were not very familiar with him. Of course, there were also some girls who were not familiar with Luo Yu, but because he was so good-looking, they still helped to shout a few words. After all, this is also an era where looks are everything.

Bai Xiaoxue glanced at Zeng Xu, then looked at Luo Yu with a worried and complicated expression.

Luo Yu crossed his arms and looked at Zeng Xu, "What if you lose? Since it's a competition, it's impossible that something will happen to me if I lose, but nothing will happen to you if you lose, right?" Luo Yu would certainly not do such a disadvantageous thing.

"Humph," Zeng Xu laughed sarcastically, "Okay, if I lose, I'll kneel down and apologize to you, how about that?"

Luo Yu said calmly: "No need to kneel down, just apologize."

"Oh, you make it sound like you're a sure winner." Zeng Xu said with disdain, "Stop talking nonsense and show your true abilities."

Is it a real skill? Ever since the virtual space came into being, Luo Yu had used it to practice his skills, calligraphy being one of them. After acquiring calligraphy skills, Luo Yu began practicing, and especially after realizing the importance of experience, he became even more diligent.

Picking up the brush, Luo Yu also closed his eyes, brewing his emotions for a moment, but it only lasted for three seconds. In three seconds, when Luo Yu opened his eyes, his originally clear eyes had become extremely deep.

Regardless of what Luo Yu's handwriting was like, Zeng Xu, who had been somewhat disdainful of Luo Yu because his emotions had been brewing for a short time, suddenly looked at Luo Yu with a serious look after seeing the sudden change in his demeanor after Luo Yu opened his eyes.

Luo Yu writes as if inspired by a god. His handwriting is the same as Zeng Xu's, which is regular script. However, compared with Zeng Xu's handwriting which follows certain rules, Luo Yu's handwriting seems to be more like cursive script, without any constraints, like the unrestrainedness of a god, with a bit more free and easy feeling.

Unlike Zeng Xu, who composed a poem, Luo Yu wrote only four simple characters: "The road ahead is long and arduous." Calligraphy doesn't depend on the number of characters; just four characters are enough to distinguish quality from that of a calligrapher. Luo Yu's four characters clearly surpass Zeng Xu's poem.

The calligraphy teacher next to Guo Jinyao applauded after seeing the four words written by Luo Yu.

"Not bad, really good. This student's handwriting is strong and vigorous. It's a great running cursive script. It's a great example of 'a long and arduous road ahead'."

"How is it? How does it compare to Zeng Xu?" Guo Jinyao asked with a smile.

The calligraphy teacher was shocked. "Is there any need to compare? You can tell who is better at a glance. Professor Guo, tell me honestly, have you known that the classmate's calligraphy is very good?" It's no wonder that the calligraphy teacher would be suspicious. It was because Guo Jinyao seemed to have great confidence in the classmate from the beginning.

Guo Jinyao shrugged, "I really don't know, but to be honest, I just know that young man better. He never fights a battle without confidence." Moreover, his ability to hide his weaknesses is extremely strong. He will not reveal his strength unless forced to do so, just like the last college entrance examination and just like this time.

The calligraphy teacher and Guo Jinyao were standing in front, so their conversation was clearly heard by Zeng Xu and Luo Yu. Zeng Xu knew that he had lost to Luo Yu, as he had provoked the match. Zeng Xu, already feeling humiliated by the apology he had to pay to Luo Yu for his loss, was furious after hearing their conversation.

Why did his teacher think so highly of that brat? Why did that brat get Professor Guo's special attention? Why was that brat's calligraphy so good? He had been practicing since he was a child.

Of course, other people also heard the conversation between the calligraphy teacher and Professor Guo, especially He Yunfei and others. Although they had signed up for the calligraphy club, their understanding of calligraphy was just beginning. They just thought that Luo Yu's handwriting was more beautiful than Zeng Xu's, but they didn't expect Luo Yu to actually beat Zeng Xu.

"That's great, Luo Yu. I didn't expect that you can also write calligraphy and even beat the vice president of the calligraphy club. That's awesome." He Yunfei patted Luo Yu's shoulder happily.

He Zhenggang narrowed his eyes and looked at He Yunfei's hand on Luo Yu's shoulder without saying anything.

"Haha, I thought the vice president of the calligraphy club was so awesome, but it turns out he's just like this."

"That's right, Luo Yu is indeed the best."

"I think he should give his vice president position to Luo Yulai. He's not as skilled as him!"

"That's a good idea. If Luo Yu really becomes the vice president of the calligraphy club, then I'll also apply to join the calligraphy club."

"The vice president lost? How is that possible?"

"Does the vice president really have to kneel down and apologize to him?"

"Zeng Xu has hit a wall."

…

Zeng Xu clenched his fists at the laughter and chatter around him. Looking at his sister beside him, who also had a look of disbelief on her face, Zeng Xu became furious and shouted at Luo Yu, "Don't think you're so great just because you can write a few words. Our competition isn't over yet. We've finished the calligraphy competition, and now we have painting skills. We agreed to compete in calligraphy and painting."
