Master Wei looked at the two of them and said with a smile, “The second round is a competition of painting.”
Yi Junkun and Liu Yi looked at each other. It was over. Yunshu was still learning the basics and had just drawn it twice. It was obvious that the other party was very skilled.
Master Wei saw that they were anxious and seemed to be unsatisfied. He continued, “Moreover, our painting this time will be different from before. Our academy has recently taught us a new painting method. It can draw people vividly, as if they are directly copied.”
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Yunshu. “I heard that your teacher has been learning this painting technique recently. I believe he has already taught you. Since everyone hasn’t been learning for long, this competition is naturally the fairest.”
Yi Junkun was a little annoyed. They had never learned any new painting techniques. This Master Wei was talking to himself and even wanted to step on them. He was simply detestable.
The other students wanted to speak, but Yi Junkun stopped them.
“There’s no need to make meaningless arguments. Otherwise, we’ll fall before the competition even begins.” He pursed his lips and said in a low voice, “Let’s see what the new painting method they’re talking about first.”
They could not shout at this moment, or they would only embarrass themselves further.
Looking at Master Wei’s expression, it was obvious that he was waiting for them to refute.
Now that he saw that they were silent, there was still a trace of regret on his face.
Teacher Wei could only turn his attention to Gu Yunshu and ask, “Do you have any questions?”
Yunshu shook her head, full of confidence. “No problem.”
Not far away, Qin Wenzheng sighed. “Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. This kid is just like his sister.”
“Isn’t he fine? From the looks of it, he won’t collapse even if he loses.” Although Madam Ge was worried, she was still amused by Gu Yunshu.
Teacher Wei snorted secretly and asked someone to bring the items up.
Two tables, two chairs, a few sheets of paper, two charcoal pencils. Gone.
The people below looked at each other in confusion.
Painting, brush, ink, paper, and inkstone were always the most basic equipment when it came to painting. Now, there was only brush and paper, and it was a charcoal brush?
Gu Yunshu touched his chin and looked at the familiar thing. He sat down properly.
Master Wei said, “Today, you will use this charcoal brush to paint. Hmm, how about painting me?”
He then asked the waiter for a chair and sat upright on it. He placed his hands on the armrests of the chair and looked straight ahead, seeming unfathomable.
The students from Dongyi Academy nodded. “I’m fine.”
With that, he sat down and pondered for a moment with the charcoal brush in his hand before starting to work.
Gu Yundong, who was in the private room on the second floor, was shocked. The new drawing method they were talking about was… sketching?
She narrowed her eyes slightly. So someone had already figured it out on their own. She just didn’t know how effective it would be.
The people downstairs were all craning their necks to look up at the high platform. There were also people whispering, especially the scholars, who seemed even more anxious.
On the high platform, only the students of the Dongyi Academy were drawing. One moment, he was painting, and the next moment, he was looking at Teacher Wei. It looked like he was quite serious.
Gu Yunshu did not move. No one knew what he was thinking, but he would occasionally look at the other party’s painting.
On the other hand, Yi Junkun and Liu Yi were a little anxious. Since he was not doing anything, why not just admit defeat?
Yi Junkun’s expression was serious. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Yi suddenly tugged at him.
Yi Junkun was stunned. He looked up and saw that Gu Yunshu had already picked up a charcoal brush and was lowering his head to paint..
