Chapter 470 The Power of the Qin Soul

As Xie Ming finished speaking, the people in the stands fell silent.

The music of these six arts is based on music theory, and there must be no sound. Otherwise, it will affect the player's mood, leading to unevenness in the pitch and a lower score.

"So, what about those three Yan family guys?"

Shi Tianze pondered for a moment, watching everyone begin their preparations, and then spoke.

If the other party really was a demon scholar, he certainly didn't want to give up the throne of his Jin Kingdom to them.

"Don't worry, there are still six rounds left. There are a lot of variables in those six rounds."

Xie Ming stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, but although he said that, his face was rather solemn.

"I hope so."

The elder of the Kong family sighed and said slowly.

As the competition began, many students brought out their own musical instruments, such as the qin and se. No matter what they were doing, as long as they were on this stage, they all had the potential to enhance their literary reputation.

"Hmph, I refuse to believe that your literary treasures can surpass mine!"

The scholar who had previously clashed with Ye Ru snorted coldly, then slammed his hand down, and a zither radiating light appeared on the stone table.

The zither was entirely fiery red, like a fiery shooting star. As soon as it appeared, everyone present gasped in astonishment.

After all, such a unique zither is quite rare.

"Hehe, Volcanic Stone Piano, this year's participants are all the pride of heaven."

Xie Ming looked at the volcanic stone zither, smiled, and then said, "The only family with the ability and qualifications to make this volcanic stone zither is probably the Shi family. This person should be Shi Tian from the Shi family."

"Although the volcanic stone zither is beautiful and unique, it does not enhance the sound. It is all show and no substance and not worth mentioning. Instead, look at the zither of my Kong family."

Elder Kong smiled slightly, his words carrying a hint of arrogance, indicating that the focus this time was none other than the Kong family.

"Look at this, it's like a phoenix... This zither is even more beautiful than the one before."

At this moment, someone in the crowd exclaimed in surprise, their gaze fixed on the spot where Kong Ling was.

Kong Ling waved his hand, and a phoenix cry resounded throughout the area. Immediately afterward, his stone table turned a fiery red, and judging from its appearance, it seemed to be of much higher quality than the previous volcanic stone zither.

"I never expected that your Kong family would even bring out this Phoenix Cry Qin for this literary gathering of scholars. You've really gone all out."

Shi Tianze looked at the Phoenix Cry Zither, which still carried a faint phoenix image, and clicked his tongue in admiration.

"Although Confucius taught us to be humble, times have changed. Our Confucius family is the head of all the families, so we cannot fall behind in this situation."

Seeing the people's reactions, Mr. Kong stroked his beard and said with satisfaction.

Everyone smiled silently, knowing that this was the Confucius family showing off, but no one called them out on it.

"I wonder what kind of piano the boy who won first place in the first round will bring out. The music played on such a good piano can affect the score."

Seemingly unwilling to linger here any longer, Xie Ming changed the subject and moved directly to Ye Ru.

"Yes, to win the championship in the competition of the Six Arts, the zither of the Six Arts must not be an unknown zither."

The representative of the Meng family also spoke with great interest.

In the audience, many people were watching Kong Ling and Shi Tian. Being the center of attention made Shi Tian feel a sense of exhilaration.

This time, we finally managed to suppress that despicable guy?

The three members of the Yan family glanced around disdainfully, then took out three precious zithers, which directly suppressed Kong Ling's zither!

"This year's literary gathering is truly full of hidden talents."

Ye Ru looked at the fluctuations of talent emanating from the surroundings, clicked his tongue, and exclaimed in amazement.

"Since that's the case, I can't let down the prestige of my Yanhuang Kingdom."

He closed his eyes slightly, then suddenly opened them. His storage bracelet emitted a light, and then an extremely ancient zither appeared on his stone table.

Ye Ru's performance in the first round naturally attracted a lot of attention, but when they saw that it was just a plain and unremarkable instrument, they dismissed it with contempt.

"So it's a third-grade literary treasure. In terms of quality, it's not as good as my volcanic stone zither."

Shi Tian snorted coldly, his smile filled with mockery. It seemed that Ye Ru had already used up all his luck in the first round.

"This is the Taihe Qin? It's not a particularly powerful literary treasure; it's only of average quality."

Looking at the Taihe Qin, Shi Tianze smiled but didn't pay much attention to it.

"They are indeed a bit weak. In that case, they might not be able to completely suppress the others. Could it be that their performance in the first round was just a fluke?"

Xie Ming pondered for a moment before commenting.

"No, look at this zither. It possesses a heart-pounding energy. If I'm not mistaken, there should be a spirit within it!"

After a moment of contemplation, Elder Kong took a deep breath, a look of shock appearing on his face, and said.

"what?"

These words caused everyone on the platform to widen their eyes and freeze in shock.

"You mean, a third-grade literary treasure contains a zither spirit?"

Shi Tianze's face was also filled with shock. After a moment, he slowly said.

"Yes, the soul of the zither is so precious. Putting it into a third-grade literary treasure, I'm afraid only a fool could make it."

Xie Ming's lips twitched slightly before he spoke.

"See? In a moment, whether it's the Phoenix Cry Zither, the Volcanic Stone Zither, or any other literary treasures, they'll be utterly insignificant in front of this Zither Soul. I misjudged him. The person who won the first round is indeed no ordinary person."

Elder Kong from the Kong family shook his head, seemingly regretting that he had misjudged the situation.

"Come out."

Looking at the Taihe Qin, Ye Ru seemed to be able to sense the restless spirit within the instrument.

As soon as the words fell, a beam of light suddenly burst forth from the Taihe Qin, scattering in all directions like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

This ray of light caused all the other instruments present to dim, as if a subject were seeing his king.

"What is this thing? How could it turn my volcanic stone harp into this?!"

Seeing this, Shi Tian's face showed a look of shock. He could feel the fear in his zither. If this emotion were to be expressed in the competition, it would probably greatly reduce his score!

A difference also appeared on the faces of those students.
