  Wei Zhao also noticed something unusual and looked at Zhao Yuan Kui, who was frowning with a gloomy face in the distance. He had some thoughts in his mind, but only smiled lightly.

  The goal has been achieved, and everything else doesn't matter.

  Everyone in the field cast their eyes on Zhao Yuanke, looking at him with unprecedented silence and expectation.

  The Buddhist Conference has been held for over a decade, but never has it been so breathtaking and mesmerizing. From Zhou Shaoyang's palindrome couplet to Wei Zhao's palindrome poem, followed by Chu Han's inverted palindrome poem, and finally Wei Zhao's 49-character masterpiece, the entire conference was pushed to an unprecedented level!

  No matter if anyone surpasses them in the future, the fact has already been set in stone - they will all leave their names in history and become representatives of a generation that paved the way for the next!

  They witnessed this era, they witnessed the dragon and tiger fighting, the contrast of the mountains and rivers! Each of them was surging with emotions, their eyes were blazing. They could already foresee Wei Zhao's rising momentum, flying high into the sky, proudly laughing at the nine heavens. In the future imperial court, there will definitely be a place for Wei Zhao, and it is not impossible that he will enter the cabinet, become a marquis, or even a prime minister!

  Chu Han's mind was still guessing about Wei Xiao's forty-nine words, frowning, constantly thinking, wrinkling his brow, suddenly realizing, and being perplexed.

  Wu Fangyuan's left hand trembled non-stop, his right hand was already numb, and the excitement in his heart was unprecedented. He looked at Wei Zuo with eyes that were as bright as a rare beauty, extremely hot.

  "If this child were to take my surname... Ah, ah..." Wu Fangyuan found that it was not just his heart, but his entire body that was trembling.

  Yin Kong and Yi Yun lowered their heads, staring at the chessboard, but for two people who were usually quick and decisive, they both seemed a bit distracted at this moment.

  Ning Guniang held the book, her pretty face calm and clear as she looked at a piece of paper on it with a poem. Her eyelids blinked for a long time before she spoke softly: "Father said that observing words reveals one's character, he is a man who is round outside but square inside."

  Yi Yun and Yin Kong Master were stunned again, looking at each other for a moment, then turning their heads to look at her, with strange eyes.

  For the third time?

  The people below stared anxiously at Zhao Yuankui, who was still frowning and thinking, but Zhao Yuankui didn't move a muscle, his eyes coldly fixed on the flashing table.

  Wu Fangyuan suppressed the excitement in her heart and smiled warmly at Wei Zhao, saying: "You two sit down and rest for a while." After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked towards Zhao Yuanqu, but her mind was also filled with doubts.

  Wu Fangyuan sat down and looked at Zhao Yuankui, who was hesitating, and asked strangely: "Brother Zhao, the result is already very clear, why are you still hesitant?"

  Zhao Yuankui looked up at him, then furrowed his brow and gazed into the distance where Wei Zhao had already sat down. His expression was cold and detached as he said: "This young man may appear to be magnanimous and composed on the surface, humble and courteous, but in reality he is arrogant and proud, pretentious and slow-witted, with a character that is not consistent with his actions, and who does not cultivate virtue. Although his talent is rare in this world, entering the imperial court would not bring good fortune to the state."

  Wu Fangyuan was extremely surprised, turned his head to look at Wei Qiao, and hastily said: "Brother Zhao, where did you hear such slander? Don't ruin someone's great future based on temporary likes or dislikes."

  Zhao Yuankui snorted and glared with his eyes: "What I saw with my own eyes, how can it be fake!"

  Wu Fangyuan was taken aback, not knowing how to respond, but in his heart, the idea of accepting Wei Xun as a disciple remained unchanged. As for his own future prospects, he naturally had to be extremely cautious and not dare to be careless in the slightest.

  He looked at Zhao Yuanke with a cold face, his eyes even colder, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat, his complexion changing slightly: "Brother Zhao, you wouldn't be thinking of depriving Wei Zao of the title of champion scholar, would you?"

  Zhao Yuankui was about to say "of course", but this time the debate on Buddhism was hosted by two people, and it still needed Wu Fangyuan's consent. He furrowed his brow, pretending to be deep in thought, saying: "This young man has a talent that is rarely seen in the world, after being tempered for three to five years, he can be greatly used."

  Wu Fangyuan's face changed greatly as soon as he heard it, 'Three to five years of tempering', which sounds like no problem, but the key is that after three to five years, who still remembers Wei Zhao? Even if you remember, when you, Zhao Yuankui, didn't take it at first, who would be willing to take the risk of offending a red person next to the emperor to promote a stranger?

  Wu Fangyuan's face turned cold, and he frowned at Zhao Yuanqu, hesitating slightly: "Brother Zhao, is this not too cruel for a young scholar like me?" Zhao Yuanqu was after all the head of the institute, and Wu Fangyuan couldn't afford to confront him directly, so he had to lower his tone and posture in order to gain Zhao's sympathy.

  Zhao Yuankui remained unmoved, his face as calm as ever, and said: "Brother Wu, you must understand that we are officials of the imperial court, bound by the emperor's orders and the hopes of millions of people. If I were to let Wei Zhao win today, it would stir up a storm in the imperial court tomorrow. Tell me, how could we justify ourselves to the emperor, and to the people of the world?"

  A big hat came down, Wu Fangyuan's heart was in a flurry, and for a moment, he couldn't find a reason. He furrowed his brow and said stubbornly: "Brother Zhao, I still hope you can consider it carefully. To be honest with you, I plan to take this son as my disciple and make him the gatekeeper." Although Wu Fangyuan was unwilling to have a falling out with Zhao Yuankui, he still spoke out without hesitation for the sake of his disciple's future, with a hint of entreaty in his tone.

  Zhao Yuankui didn't think it was unexpected, and he glanced at him lightly, saying: "I advise Brother Wu to put away this idea. This son is reckless and arrogant, even if he has a talent, he won't follow the right path. Don't regret it later." He had already made up his mind, and naturally wouldn't change his decision because of Wu Fangyuan's few words.

  Wu Fangyuan listened to Zhao Yuankui's resolute words, knowing that things could not be changed. His face suddenly showed anger and he loudly said: "Brother Zhao, when have you ever seen Wei Zao behave in a showy manner? Or when have you seen him being arrogant and disdainful of others? Is it because you've received favors from the Chu family and want to curry favor with them?" Since they had already torn off their masks, Wu Fangyuan was no longer afraid of Zhao Yuankui and immediately questioned him with a furious expression.

  Weizao and Chu Han were facing each other, exchanging poetry, when Chu Han was shocked by Weizao's novel argument, his face flushed with excitement as he quickly wrote something on the rice paper. Just then, a sudden noise came from in front of them, and the two couldn't help but look up in surprise.

  Chu Han looked puzzled, glanced at Wei Qiao, and quickly lowered his head to continue writing. This time's champion was obviously not him, but his poem was enough to make Yiyun understand his talent, plus Wei Qiao would definitely be the top scorer this year and couldn't marry a courtesan. So Chu Han felt completely at ease in his heart, sweeping away the previous gloom.

  Weizao looked at the two people not far away, although Wu Fangyuan's voice was not very clear, but Weizao still understood that they had a dispute. And now the only dispute that can arise is about the ownership of the virtual champion. Although he doesn't care about this title, Weizao still has some doubts, Zhao Yuankui seems to have been dissatisfied with him from the beginning, with prejudice in his heart?

  Zhao Yuankui was furious upon hearing this. He was a man of integrity and justice, respected by the world, how could he tolerate being slandered! However, as the head of the Hanlin Academy, he had to maintain the dignity of the academy. Suppressing his anger, he spoke in a cold tone to Wu Fangyuan: "Brother Wu, you'd better watch your words, otherwise I will definitely impeach you before the Emperor!"
