There’s never too much excitement for onlookers, their hearts shouting:
Come on, more! Crush them for me!
Inside the courtyard, Master Bai, who had been about to get up and rest, was also stunned and forcefully pressed down the blanket that had been lifted.
There might still be good works to see.
What’s the point of sleeping at a time ? Nothing is more important to him than traditional Chinese painting!
In the live-streaming room, Tang Shu glanced at the barrage of question marks in the comments and spoke up to explain.
"I’ve been to the official website and looked at the information of the challengers, with a dozen out of a hundred being skilled in both traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. This time’s painting competition has also registered participants for the calligraphy competition, although I’m not sure whether you guys specifically want to challenge me in traditional Chinese painting or calligraphy... it doesn’t matter, let’s do both."
Since she was now a judge of the competition, she was responsible for more than just the painting contest but also the calligraphy.
As soon as her voice fell, everyone who was squatting in the live-streaming room got it.
[So the host is planning to do calligraphy right?!]
[So there are people who signed up for two competitions, Uncle She isn’t quite sure which one you want to challenge him in... it doesn’t matter, let’s do both, holy shit, this sentence is so freaking arrogant!]
[It doesn’t matter, let’s do both, why do I feel like Uncle She isn’t taking this too seriously, am I mistaken?]
[No, you’re definitely not mistaken, he just doesn’t take it seriously!]
[I’m dying of laughter, is Uncle She so thoughtful? He even considered that small group of people, but why do I find this so funny, hhhhhhh~~~]
[Once and for all, Uncle She’s thinking is absolutely flawless, very nice.]
The long-time fans, having spent so much time with She and Yu, began to talk aggressively as well.
As for the challengers... suddenly they had a bad feeling.
[Honestly, I’m getting a bit nervous.]
[I always have this heart-thumping feeling, don’t ask me why, because I just don’t know.]
[Emmm, not going to lie to you, I signed up for both competitions.]
[Should I not have challenged him? I’m freaking out...]
[Truth be told, not every painter is necessarily a master of calligraphy... damn it! I can’t even convince myself of that anymore!]
It’s true that not every talented painter is necessarily a master of calligraphy.
They had just seen the ’Spring Charm’ written in the spirited Cursive Script; was there anything more convincing than that?
No ordinary person could write like that.
Inside the courtyard, Master Bai laughed and showed a hint of surprise upon hearing this.
"She can do calligraphy as well? Then I can certainly look forward to it," he said.
Having seen Tang Shu’s traditional paintings, he dared not underestimate this young-sounding girl anymore; if her painting skills were so advanced, her calligraphy would be even more exceptional.
He was now more curious than expectant.
In the live-streaming room, the brush in Tang Shu’s right hand had already touched the white rice paper.
From right to left, with one stroke, her brushwork was graceful yet resolute, elegant and decisive.
This was Cursive Script!
When Tang Shu’s first character was finished, many recognized this particular style of calligraphy.
"Haha, not bad, not bad! The brushwork is soft yet forceful, it feels like the power could penetrate the back of the paper, this technique is quite good!" Master Bai exclaimed with his eyes wide in delight.
The boy was with him throughout and felt the style looked familiar, "The Cursive Script that Uncle She is writing... is it?"
"It’s Cursive Script!"
Master Bai elaborated on the characters he admired, and also slowly explained to Little Grandson; he paused mid-explanation.
