"Sure enough, after publishing a lot of poems of the same type, everyone's threshold also increased. But after changing to a different type, the 'talent value' gained by this poem is comparable to the previous two!"
It's a bit of a shame that so many poems have already been released in today's poetry competition. The further we go, the harder it is to earn 'talent points,' and the audience has become much more 'stingy' with them!
Xu Lu sighed.
Of course, the claim that the audience is stingy is a joke.
The audience has no control over contributing talent points, because 'talent points' are simply a kind of feedback effect.
Given that this poetry contest has lasted for so long, it's quite normal that the feedback has become increasingly negative.
Thinking about this, Xu Lu felt that it was almost time to end this poetry contest.
However, for now, we need to get the 'original body' to match this poem first.
Because he already had a draft in mind, he didn't hesitate at all and typed out the content of the next poem.
And under the gaze of all the viewers, a poem was revealed in the blank space where 'Director Xu Lu' was located:
Chrysanthemums by the railing... Smoke of sorrow... Orchids weeping with dew... Light chill in the silk curtains... Swallows... Flying away in pairs...
Last night... the west wind... withered the green trees... alone I climbed the high tower... gazing until... the road to the ends of the earth...
In fact, with so many experiences before, viewers and netizens no longer think that 'Director Xu Lu' is wrong.
However, after seeing the content of this poem, everyone couldn't help but marvel:
"It's already remarkable that an era has one 'Qinglian Jushi' (a legendary hermit), and now we have another 'Director Xu Lu'..."
"I know Director Xu will definitely be able to match it, but could you be just as amazing? This poem is just too stunning."
"I really love this line, 'The west wind blew last night...' It's perfect for showing off."
"Well, these two are equally skilled, so it's impossible to determine a winner. Let's not wait any longer."
...
"That's impressive, but could you let us know when it will end?"
"We can't just stay here with the two of you tonight, can we? I was hoping to go admire the moon."
"That's right, that's right! Director Xu, and whoever else is, how about we call it a draw today? Let's let everyone off the hook!"
"Hahaha, what I want to say is, leave the students alone, you're putting too much burden on them."
"Hiss! Now that I think about it, it's true. All those students will curse those two guys from now on, they definitely will."
...
"I must become an apprentice! Whether it's 'Qinglian Jushi' or 'Director Xu Lu,' either one is fine."
"They're too strong, absolutely too strong! With those two around, who else can truly be called a poet? Not a single one!"
Seeing that Director Xu Lu was also singing "Butterfly Lovers," Shen Zizhen's expression became even more fervent.
This performance was truly terrifying to Zhang Xi, who was standing to the side.
He suddenly understood why celebrities were afraid of their brainless fans.
Shen Zizhen's current state is probably the same as that of a brainless fan.
After thinking for a moment, he offered a tactful piece of advice:
"Hey, Lao Shen, you should tone down that admiration a little."
Otherwise, I'm afraid even if you see those two people, they'll be scared away by you; your eyes are terrifying!
"No, if these two teachers saw me, they would definitely be moved by my sincerity."
Besides, my gaze wasn't scary at all; it was a longing for poetry. You, a prose writer, certainly wouldn't understand my feelings!
Shen Zizhen retorted directly.
Hearing this, Zhang Xi was speechless.
Seeing his friend getting more and more into trouble, he became a little anxious.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to go all out this time and suddenly said:
"Old Shen, I understand your desire to become an apprentice and learn skills."
But have you ever thought about why someone should teach you, or why they should take you on as a student?
Do you think you're the only one who wants to become an apprentice of these two?
There are definitely more than that. After tonight's poetry contest, how many people do you think want to become disciples of Master Qinglian or Director Xu Lu?
Hundreds? Thousands?
What will happen to Qinglian Jushi and Director Xu Lu then?
Have you received them all?
Taking in so many students is practically the same as not taking in any at all, isn't it?
"You won't accept any? Then why should we accept you, Shen Zizhen, as a student?"
"this……"
Unlike before, this time, Shen Zizhen was stunned after hearing it.
"Yeah, why should they accept me as a student? What makes me better than others?"
Shen Zizhen murmured to himself.
A moment later, he suddenly said with a dejected look:
"It's over! It's really over, I have no chance anymore, it's all over..."
"Uh, I think I went too far this time. Old Shen has become really depressed!"
Zhang Xi sensed something was wrong and could only quickly say:
"Ahem, well, there's still a chance."
Besides, how do you know it doesn't exist if you don't try it, right?
If not many people want to become disciples of these two masters, wouldn't you have fewer competitors?
Moreover, you have a solid foundation, which makes you much stronger than the average person…
Zhang Xi felt truly exhausted.
What does all this have to do with anything?
He was just trying to persuade the other person to give up the idea, and now he wants to persuade the other person to cheer up. He's really going around in circles!
...
Actually, there are quite a few people who are mentally exhausted right now, such as Chairman Zhou, who is quite mentally exhausted.
Although he had long since given up hope that the kid surnamed Xu would suffer a setback.
But seeing how easily the other party could handle it again still made Zhou Wenhao feel quite heartbroken.
Clearly, he misjudged his opponent's strength this time. If he had known earlier that the kid was so powerful, he certainly wouldn't have come looking for trouble.
Not only have we not gained any benefits, but we've also brought an ingrate like 'Qinglian Jushi' into the association.
President Zhou said he was very troubled.
Because outsiders like the guy surnamed Xu don't pose much of a threat to Zhou Wenhao unless he actively provokes them.
However, with such a talented person as 'Qinglian Jushi' joining the Modern Poetry Association, Zhou Wenhao even felt that his position as president was not very secure.
Clearly, with the conclusion of this Mid-Autumn Poetry Gathering, Qinglian Jushi will gain considerable support within the association.
If the other party is truly interested in his position as chairman, then Zhou Wenhao will be in big trouble.
Thinking of this, Chairman Zhou was on the verge of collapse, cursing loudly:
"I've created a powerful opponent for myself out of nowhere. Am I out of my mind?"
That kid surnamed Xu is a real jinx! Ever since I messed with him, nothing's gone smoothly for me!
