As Wei Zheng's words fell, he saw six men walking up to the judging table one after another, and each of them sat on the seat with an identity tag.

From left to right, sitting in turn are academicians Fang Wenzhou, Zhuang Fei, Zhang Fan, and bachelors Ji Zhongzhe, Han Fu, and Qin Huaisheng.

The three academicians were all old men, while the other three scholars looked to be young, estimated to be in their early twenties and less than thirty.

When the spectators saw such a lineup, they couldn't help but start talking to each other.

"This year's jury lineup, compared with previous years, is it a bit lower?"

"I feel that way too!"

"Why are the judges getting younger and younger? Could it be that the Hanlin Academy has no choice but to find a suitable candidate to serve in the position? ”

"Are you stupid? Where has this bar been lowered? This is clearly raising the standard, right? ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Those three younger sons, although they are not as old as the previous judges, but they are the same 'bachelor' and other figures, why did they lower their standards?

Have you forgotten that the judges of the past were all 'bachelors'? ”

"Bachelor?"

"The other three old gentlemen that Wei just introduced...... It seems to be an academician, right? ”

"There are only two official ranks in the Hanlin Academy, one is a bachelor, and the other is an academician."

“…… I remember that the judges were co-chaired by nine scholars from Hallym Academy. ”

"That's right, in the past, nine Hallym Academy scholars served as the judges of the Academy Challenge."

"So...... Only six people came this time, and the reason was that the Hanlin Academy replaced six bachelors with three academicians? ”

"It seems so."

"If that's the case, then this year's evaluation standards are indeed raised."

Wei Zheng saw that there was a lot of discussion below because of the replacement of the judges, and he couldn't help but mutter...... For the slightest change in the rules, it was shocking like this, so if you know that there will be two judges with special identities on the stage, will there be people who faint directly at the scene?

"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet." Wei Zheng first calmed down the commotion of the authorities before continuing under the attention of everyone. "As you might guess, this year's Academy Challenge has really improved the judging criteria for participants.

However, the change in the benchmark is not a move to exchange academicians for bachelors.

Due to the insufficient number of judges for this challenge, it was decided to invite three academicians to serve as judges, and temporarily reduced the number of three seats in the judging seats.

But!

Not long ago, the first female teacher in the history of Yeyu Kingdom appeared!

She has not yet reached the level of knowledge, but she is very knowledgeable, and she has passed the assessment of the Shangheng Academy's Sect Office, and has become the only teacher in the academy who teaches the four arts at the same time.

Speaking of which, some people must have doubted it, and even had the idea of denying such absurdity in their hearts.

With his own strength, he challenged the four masters of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at the same time.

In the end, she not only defeated the four art masters, but also the best of the four arts...... It made the four teachers feel ashamed. ”

When Wei Zheng said this, the scene was already in an uproar.

"A female teacher? Haven't it yet? ”

"I'll go, really?"

"Master Wei, you have to have a limit to what you can joke about, who do you think would believe such a mysterious thing?"

"In my opinion, it must be that you Imperial City people are afraid of losing this competition again, so they want to use this method to disturb the audio-visual, right?"

"I say!" The locals of Yeyu Imperial City couldn't stand it anymore. "You outsiders, if you don't believe it, you don't believe it, how can you question the fairness of the Hanlin Academy so much?"

"This is not only questioning the fairness of the Hanlin Academy, but also insulting the reputation of all the participating schools in the Imperial City!"

"That's right! If you haven't heard of her name as being lonely and unheard, it doesn't mean that there really isn't such a person in the Imperial City! ”

Outsiders still don't believe it. "No matter what you say, as long as I don't see me, I don't believe it."

"That's right! Don't believe it! ”

"It's whimsical to want to convince the public with such outrageous words!"

"If there is really someone, let her come out and let me wait and see, otherwise you are talking nonsense!"

Some of the people of the Imperial City couldn't bear it anymore. "Yo, you're getting excited, aren't you? I'm ...... grumpy."

"Silence, silence!" Wei Zheng interrupted the endless argument in the audience at the right time, and he was not verbose, and raised his voice directly. "Now, I would like to invite the seventh judge to ......"

Everyone at the scene instantly held their breath, waiting for the moment to witness the miracle.

Wei Zheng paused for a moment, whetted everyone's appetite, and then said unhurriedly. "The leader of the consecutive pianists, Mr. Gong Yuichi of Shangheng Academy!"

As soon as Wei Zheng said this, the scene immediately fell into an abyssless silence.

And when the silence passed, it was naturally greeted by a protest.

"What the hell!"

"That's too frustrating, isn't it?"

"I knew that there was no such thing as a so-called amazing genius, it was all a lie!"

"Liar! Swindler! ”

"Liar!"

The insults and slanders from the audience made Gong Yuyi, who was standing on the edge of the judging platform, embarrassed.

"......" Gong Yuyi wrinkled his brows, neither advancing nor retreating, falling into a dilemma.

Behind Gong Yuyi, Gu Yanran also had a calm face, not to mention how bad her mood was.

Although she has only been reborn for half a month, to be honest, she has met Gong Yuyi more often than she has seen her father and mother.

This Gong Yuichi is a little old-fashioned on weekdays, and sometimes his temper is quite short-tempered...... It's, it seems, it's really not good.

But at least!

At least he is a person who dares to act, and he believes that a certain idea or thing will be stumbled to the end.

For that reason, she thinks he's a good guy!

And in today's situation, even if the relationship between the two of them is not good on weekdays, for the sake of being colleagues, she has to fight for him to get a breath of air.

"Yuyu, get out of the way." Gu Yanran stretched out her hand and gently pushed Gong Yuyi to the side, and ran to Wei Zheng's side angrily.

Wei Zheng's eyes were quick, and he saw Gu Yanran coming to the stage, and hurriedly introduced. "Now, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the 8th judge ...... of this year's Academy Challenge"

Wei Zheng had just said a word, and Gu Yanran had already come to the stage.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Zheng received a glare from Gu Yanran.

“？？？” Wei Zheng was full of doubts.

Is he stared at?

Why?

Didn't he inadvertently offend her without knowing it?

Impossible.

He had just met Gu Yanran for the first time before entering the venue, and it was only a stick of incense until now.

It was only a negligible amount of incense, and if there was any offense to her, he would definitely find out.

Just when Wei Zheng was puzzled, Gu Yanran revealed the mystery.

"Mr. Wei." Gu Yanran faced Wei Zheng, and her tone was not as gentle as when they first met. "If you coax me, you will coax me, why do you call Mr. Gong halfway?"
