Chapter 377: Qin Wenzheng Is Here
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was county academy overseer who picked up the two paintings and looked at Master Wei with a complicated gaze. He said, “It seems that I don’t have to judge. Everyone knows whose painting skills are better.”
Teacher Wei stood up slowly and raised his chin confidently.
However, in the next moment, the overseer’s words struck him like a bolt of lightning, almost breaking his bones.
“I now announce that the winner is Gu Yunshu.”
“Impossible!” Teacher Wei suddenly regained his strength. He strode forward with his stiff legs and walked in front of the county academy teacher. He snatched the paintings.
When he saw Gu Yunshu’s painting, his eyes widened in disbelief.
How was this possible? Impossible. He had secretly gotten someone to get information from these students. Qin Wenzheng had never taught these people this painting method.
He heard that Qin Wenzheng was still thinking about how to do it. Qin Wenzheng would not rashly teach his students things that he had yet to understand.
However, looking at Gu Yun’s painting, it was obvious that he was very familiar with it. It was impossible for him to draw it so realistically without more than half a year of practice.
Educator Liu secretly sighed and took back the two paintings. “Today’s competition was originally best of three. Now that Teacher Qin’s students have already won two consecutive rounds, there’s no need to start the third round.”
As he spoke, he cared about Dongyi Academy’s reputation and added, “However, we agreed that this is just a sparring. Winning or losing doesn’t matter. At least everyone present today has seen this very special new painting method. Even I’ve broadened my horizons and benefited greatly.”
He laughed as he spoke, but Teacher Wei did not seem to appreciate it. He still could not accept the fact that he had lost two rounds in a row.
“That’s impossible. He definitely didn’t draw this. He must have…”
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a mocking voice from behind. “How is it impossible? Under everyone’s eyes, could it be that my student cheated?”
Everyone looked back and saw Qin Wenzheng walking over with a dark expression.
Although he looked calm, he was screaming in his heart. Especially when he saw Gu Yunshu’s painting, he almost could not stop himself from taking it over for a good look.
Yi Junkun and the others surrounded him happily. “Master, Master, you are back?”
“Teacher, we won.”
Qin Wenzheng nodded slightly. “Yes, you guys did well.”
The little kids, who were praised, were so happy that their faces turned red. One had to know that the teacher was usually very serious. It was too difficult to hear praise from him.
Qin Wenzheng looked at Teacher Wei again and sneered. “Dongyi Academy is indeed dignified. You bullied a group of children when I wasn’t in school. In the end, you lost twice to our school. Now, you’re starting to go back on your word? I want to ask your dean, are the teachers of Dongyi Academy all people who take advantage of others and bully them without any self-restraint or dignity?”
“You…” Teacher Wei’s face turned green and white, but he could not refute.
On the other hand, a group of people quickly walked over from outside the Jinxiu Restaurant. The leader was the acting dean of Dongyi Academy.
“Since Dongyi Academy has lost, we naturally won’t go back on our word.” He walked in front of Qin Wenzheng and bowed deeply. He said apologetically, “This matter is my Dongyi Academy’s fault. Master Wei made his own decision and urged the students to compete with the other academies in private. He violated the big taboo of our Dongyi Academy. Master Qin, don’t worry. Dongyi Academy will definitely give you an explanation..”
