My Wife is A Sword God

The scene didn’t last too long, after all, maintaining the state of Divine Power was no easy task.

“Even though this technique is divine, the consumption is still too high.” After Qin Feng dispelled Divine Power, his complexion became much worse and his body swayed slightly.

Seeing this, Anya was about to reach out to support him.

However, a delicate jade hand had already appeared between her and Qin Feng, firmly supporting him.

Qing Feng immediately recognised the owner of the jade hand as Liu Jianli!

Anya’s expression froze for a moment, feeling somewhat disappointed.

She thought she had the advantage of being close to Qin Feng, but unexpectedly, someone disregarded martial ethics and used the body technique of the Divine Martial Warrior to bully her, a scholar!

Cang Feilan, who was not far away, was secretly amazed under her black square scarf, only regretting that she was too slow.

As for Lan Ningshuang, she reacted belatedly.

As the Immortal Technique of Mirror Flower, Water Moon unfolded, the students of Peaceful Academy naturally had their grievances washed away. They then glared at the instigator of this entire farce.

Young Master Jiang staggered backwards, realising that there was no point in arguing at this point.

He looked at Qin Feng in disbelief, the imprint of a slap still stinging on his face. But the surrounding discussions were even more painful to his cheeks than that slap!

“Fifteen thousand taels, only fifteen thousand taels…” The young man in brocade gritted his teeth and pulled another ten thousand tael bill out of his pocket.

Unknown to him, the Crown Prince casually said, “Twenty thousand taels.”

“You just said fifteen thousand taels, now you’re adding five thousand more. Don’t push it too far. My father is…” Jiang, whose last name was unfinished, was coldly interrupted by the Crown Prince: “Don’t mention your father to me. If we’re talking about fathers, you’re not qualified yet. As for why you need to add another five thousand taels, wasn’t it you who broke the Jade Butterfly? Shouldn’t you make up for it?”

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow at the words. It was reasonable. After all, the Crown Prince’s father was none other than the current Emperor Ming. Who in this world could compete with his father?

That was why some people fought all their lives to go to Rome, not knowing that some were born there.

Thinking about this, Qin Feng remembered his past life and felt quite emotional.

“You!” The young man in the brocade gritted his teeth in anger. Before, the other party had claimed that the Jade Butterfly was a fake, worth almost nothing, but now it was suddenly worth five thousand taels.

Such blatant deception was unbearable!

But with the truth out in the open, and surrounded by so many witnesses, he had no ground to stand on. Even if he wanted to protest, he could only swallow his displeasure.

But he also remembered the appearance of the person from the Star Seizing Tower, and thought about settling the score later.

With his father’s position as an official of the Ministry of Personnel, dealing with someone like that would be like taking candy from a baby, wouldn’t it?

As for the other party’s words just now, he naturally scoffed at them.

As he handed over the twenty thousand silver tickets, the one with the surname Jiang didn’t forget to add a few harsh words: “I’ll remember what happened today. You all better watch out.”

With that, he was about to turn around and leave.

But at that moment, Mo Siye spoke up: “Why wait until later? A true gentleman faces things head on. If there’s enmity, it should be resolved face to face. What do you think, Young Master Qin?”

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, “And what about you, Lord Mo, the pseudo-gentleman?”

“Pseudo…” Mo Siye’s anger surged, but he swallowed it forcefully and snorted coldly, “Every year, at the end of the Literature Gathering, there’s a poetry duel to showcase the literary prowess of the Imperial City.”

“Why not let the National Academy and the Peace Academy compete against each other?”

“Firstly, it can serve as a preliminary competition for the Imperial Examination.”

“Secondly, it can promote friendship through the Literature Gathering and turn conflicts into friendship.”

“I believe, Young Master Qin, you wouldn’t refuse, would you?”

Qin Feng immediately showed a strange expression. He was well aware that his reputation in poetry had long been known within the Imperial City. Even though Great Qian’s poetry had been weak for a long time, the few poems he had copied stood out above the rest!

To think that someone would dare to challenge him in poetry… Who gave you such courage… Qin Feng thought to himself.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, under the full moon, when the melody of the Water Tune Song began, it was about to dominate the competition!

“But since we’re competing, then there must be a method to compare,” Mo Siye smiled confidently as he reached into his pocket and pulled out an item.

When Qin Feng saw it, he immediately recognised that this was the Literature Judgement Stove he had seen outside the Listen to Rain Pavilion in Jinyang City!

“This is the Literature Judgement Stove, a treasure that can determine the quality of poetry. Write down the verses and throw them into it, and white smoke will come out.”

“White smoke that rises to one to three zhang indicates an ordinary object, four to six zhang indicates a precious object, and seven to nine zhang indicates a divine object.”

“At that time each of us will send out ten people. After the verses are determined, we will decide the winner based on the total height of the white smoke. What do you think, Master Qin?”

So this guy had this plan in mind… Qin Feng frowned.

Although the students of Peaceful Academy were diligent, their accumulation was slightly lacking compared to the National Academy.

Mo Siye’s move was obviously aimed at minimising his potential impact and then overwhelming Peaceful Academy with overall strength!

‘At the Literature Gathering, under the eyes of everyone, if they lose this battle, their confidence will inevitably suffer a huge blow, which will be very detrimental to the upcoming Imperial Examination.’

‘On the other hand, if they show fear before the battle, it won’t be good for them either,’ Qin Feng secretly pondered, unsure how to decide.

Seeing this, Mo Siye felt excited in his heart: “Of course, if Master Qin is afraid, you can take the people from Peaceful Academy and leave. I’m sure no one here would say much.”

“After all… scholars born from the streets can’t be compared to those from the National Academy!”

As Qin Feng hesitated, Lu Rong spoke up behind him, “Let’s compete then, but we won’t allow you to insult Master Qin!”

“That’s right, Master Qin told us before that there’s no difference between high and low among scholars. As long as you have ambitions for the world, anyone can study!”

“We are not afraid of your National Academy!”

Each sentence echoed with unwavering determination!

Qin Feng turned around and scanned the crowd of students with a satisfied expression, then said seriously, “This match is accepted by the Peaceful Academy.”

“Very well, very well.” Mo Siye’s plan was successful, and he couldn’t help but smile, “Then we’ll wait for you all.”

With that, he led the people from the National Academy away.

“Brother Qin, is it really okay?” The prince approached and whispered softly.

Although the people from the National Academy were arrogant and domineering, they had the capital to be so.

Each of them came from a prestigious background, and they had practised calligraphy and literature since childhood. Although their knowledge was not extensive, it surpassed that of most scholars.

If this were not the case, it would be impossible for the The Great Qian court to select talents from the National Academy every year to serve as officials in the court.

Of course, Qin Feng understood this point, but in the current situation, choosing to avoid the battle would only lower the morale of the students from poor backgrounds.

And if someone’s morale was crushed, they might end up leading a life of mediocrity.

That wasn’t the outcome he was hoping for.

“It’s okay, I trust them,” Qin Feng said.
