Among them, Liu Kaixiong impressed He Yunxiao the most.
This kid was defeated by Chu Fan twice, but unexpectedly, he managed to get ahead of Chu Fan in the end by virtue of the power of silver.
Indeed, money is the only truth.
Of course, besides Liu Kaixiong, He Yunxiao was also surprised to find his childhood friend Chen Ziming in the top ten.
But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Chen Ziming's martial arts skills are slightly better than mine before I took the Soul-Devouring Pill, so defeating most people shouldn't be a problem. Besides, this kid is also quite talented in writing.
Next year's imperial examination, even if I don't become the top scholar, second-place scholar, or third-place scholar, I might still manage to become a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest level of the imperial examination). My martial arts skills will be about the same; I definitely can't compete for the top few spots, but getting into the upper ranks shouldn't be too difficult.
Yang Zhe is a talent who excels in both academics and martial arts.
At times like this, students should prioritize their studies. As for things like the beauty pageant, Chen Ziming, you can't handle that.
He Yunxiao originally only planned to be a spectator, but now he has decided to participate.
Yang Zhe's presence made He Yunxiao feel very threatened. He was afraid that Chu Fan was no match for Yang Zhe, so he sent Yang Zhe to meet Sister Du alone.
He Yunxiao had complete confidence in Chu Fan's character, after all, he was the protagonist. But he had absolutely no confidence in Yang Zhe; that guy was capable of anything if he met my wife alone.
So, after He Yunxiao's persistent pleading, his childhood friend Chen Ziming had no choice but to give up his spot to He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao patted his good brother Chen Ziming on the shoulder and said boldly, "Ziming, when I become a general, I will definitely appoint you as the vanguard general!"
Chen Ziming could only say, "I need to practice martial arts diligently and try to live a few more years. Otherwise, I won't live to see you become a great general."
The chatting and joking quickly ended, and the ten women went on stage to participate in the final literary competition of the courtesan pageant.
To He Yunxiao's surprise, Chu Fan didn't come; instead, Chu Xiaoxiao did. Besides, Yang Zhe somehow managed to get the first-place winner to give him the spot, and even Li Jin participated as the sixth-place finisher.
Therefore, the current situation on the field is as follows:
First place: Yang Zhe. Second place: Liu Feiyun. Third place: Passerby A. Fourth place: Tie Weiqi. Fifth place: Shen Kuan. Sixth place: Li Jin. Seventh place: Liu Kaixiong. Eighth place: Passerby B. Ninth place: Chu Xiaoxiao. Tenth place: He Yunxiao.
Across the ten tables sat five young ladies from the Spring Breeze Pavilion, responsible for judging the quality of the poems.
Du Yinyun, Jiang Wuyou, and four others.
The competition began quickly, and Du Yinyun announced the topic for the first round: "Flowers."
Upon hearing this word, He Yunxiao grinned.
