Chapter 433: Shocking the Audience
The followers of the Dao of Literature were known for memorizing ten thousand volumes of books, but this memorization was undoubtedly about the content within the books.
Who would, when well-fed, bother memorizing the page and line numbers?
Even the scholars from the National Academy and the common people in the audience never expected such a move from Qin Feng.
“What kind of question is this?!” the man exclaimed anxiously.
“You pride yourself on reciting historical books backward fluently. This question is related to historical books as well. If you can’t answer, admit defeat,” Qin Feng said indifferently.
The man racked his brain, vaguely recalling that the content was in the first half of a historical book. Not to mention the line number, he couldn’t even remember the page.
In frustration, he gritted his teeth and said, “Fine, since you want to play like this, I’ll play along. The first question you asked me was in…”
Before he could finish, Qin Feng’s lips curled slightly as he replied, “Page 73, line 8 of ‘The Chronicles of the Northern Wilderness.'”
“What?!” The man was once again bewildered.
How could he believe that someone could remember the page and line numbers of a book so accurately?
The man naturally didn’t believe it either. He hurriedly took out “The Chronicles of the Northern Wilderness” from his spatial treasure, then flipped to the page number Qin Feng mentioned.
With a quick glance, he dropped the scroll, and he stood there in shock, saying, “It’s correct.”
How could this be?!
Everyone was astonished.
The man still didn’t believe it. He thought that Qin Feng had memorized the page and line numbers of the questions he would ask in advance to catch him off guard.
So, he shamelessly said, “That one doesn’t count. I haven’t finished asking my question yet. Go ahead, answer. How did you know if I was going to ask about the page number or the line number?”
The crowd below started booing at his shameless behavior.
The man blushed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, “If you can tell me the sixth question I asked, which page and which line in which book it is, I’ll admit defeat wholeheartedly!”
Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then confidently replied, “Page 98, line 17 of ‘The Universal Mirror of the Heavenly Origin.'”
The man had already taken out the historical books, and once again, he flipped to the page number mentioned by Qin Feng. The scroll fell to the ground again, and he staggered backward in disbelief.
“I… I lost.”
As his words fell, cheers erupted from the crowd.
In stark contrast, the faces of the scholars from the National Academy were extremely unsightly.
The man returned to the lineup in disgrace and said with shame, “I am incompetent and have lost face for the National Academy.”
Although Mo Siye was annoyed, to maintain morale, he still consoled, “It’s okay. No one expected that, in addition to his medical and craftsmanship skills, he would be so proficient in history.”
“Whoever goes below, be sure not to take it lightly.”
The first battle ended in defeat, and it was a complete loss.
The students of the National Academy initially had confidence, but now they were somewhat hesitant.
What if the opponent is not only good at history but also excels in what we have learned?
Today’s events will surely become widely known in Imperial City, and no one wants to lose face.
“Brother Lin, how about you go?”
“Brother Xiao, you’re joking. I am not as knowledgeable as Brother Liu.”
“I still need to prepare, I’ll come in the next round.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Siye angrily shouted, “If you are timid before fighting, do you deserve to be called a student of the National Academy?”
He glanced at the group, pointed to the one surnamed Lin, and said, “You, go!”
“Yes, Master Mo.” The man surnamed Lin reluctantly replied.
After one round of competition, the result was not surprising; Qin Feng won again.
The cheers of the people were deafening, and the faces of the National Academy students were extremely unpleasant.
Then came the third and fourth rounds. Qin Feng, without exception, won them all, and with an overwhelming force!
Everyone was shocked beyond words. Not only was he proficient in history, but he also excelled in various studies such as governance, the six arts, water resources, and geology?
Could there be anything that Master Qin couldn’t do?
All the students in the Poor Scholar Academy widened their eyes with admiration and pride.
Their Master Qin was omnipotent!
In the carriage, the beautiful woman exclaimed, “Young Master, how can that man know everything at such a young age?”
The Crown Prince also couldn’t answer, so he could only sigh, “Brother Qin really cannot be explained by common sense.”
On the other hand, inside the Heavenly Tower, Yang Qian and Fei Xun were also paying attention to this academic dispute.
Initially, they were worried that Junior Brother Qin would lose face in front of everyone.
However, as the competition progressed, their worry turned into sympathy for the National Academy people.
Indeed, there was no one capable on the side of the National Academy.
“But I never thought that Junior Brother Qin’s learning would be so diverse,” Fei Xun curiously said.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Qian replied, “Did you forget? Junior Brother Qin has experienced the Academy Palace, where time flows differently from the outside.”
“No one knows how many books he has read inside, and this time, the National Academy has truly lifted a stone to smash its own foot.”
” Huh? It seems like Mo Siye’s student is about to take the stage personally. I remember that person is called Tang Fei, the son of the Ministry Of War, skilled in…”
“Military strategy.” Fei Xun showed a sympathetic expression, shaking his head with regret.
“Absolutely outrageous! Are you really bringing disgrace to our National Academy?” Mo Siye could no longer tolerate it and exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, everyone lowered their heads.
At this moment, Tang Fei smiled and said, “Respected mentor, please don’t be angry.”
“He has already fought more than ten rounds, and the debate on the Heavenly Heart Platform must have already consumed a considerable amount of Literature Qi. At this moment, he must be mentally fatigued and physically weakened.”
“I’ll go up and dampen his enthusiasm, making him lose face. And at the peak of his arrogance, in front of everyone, delivering a defeat might shatter his confidence.”
The last sentence was spoken softly by Tang Fei, revealing the ultimate purpose of engaging in this academic dispute.
“Good, I believe you won’t disappoint your master.”
Guided by the Heavenly Heart Platform , Tang Fei ascended the high platform, still wearing that harmless smile on his face.
Qin Feng’s face darkened slightly; he knew this opponent was different from the ones he faced before, not easy to deal with.
Tang Fei said, “Brother Qin is indeed remarkable. I have never seen anyone make such achievements in so many academic fields. But your victory should stop here.”
Pausing, Tang Fei glanced at the crowd below and continued, “When it comes to knowledge, quoting classics, it’s still at the theoretical stage. I want to compete with Brother Qin in something different.”
As he finished speaking, he waved his right hand, and a black chessboard unfolded in the wind.
In Imperial City, at the residence of Duke Liu, Liu Tianlu, who had been observing the academic dispute with extraordinary vision, exclaimed, “The Hundred Battle Martial Arts Board?”
