"A good sentence. Using a stone as a metaphor, it describes a person of noble character and a pure and clear heart. Using an object as a clue, hmm, skillful."

Noelle said modestly, "It's all thanks to Xingqiu's guidance during the field trip."

Carlyle also became interested at this point.

"I'd also like to offer a pair for everyone—"

"From the shimmering mists of the heavens to the marshes and reed-covered isles, all for the sake of a single lotus seed and poultry egg soup."

Diona murmured, "Lotus seed and poultry egg custard?"

Paimon thought she had thought of the next line.

She said these things were too difficult, and it would take time just to understand them.

However, she did have some ideas about the lotus seed and poultry egg soup.

That was a drink I used to mix – a raspberry mint drink.

Unexpectedly, the moment I heard about this 'raspberry mint drink'...

Yingmei blurted it out.

"Northward beyond the shores of Falling Star Lake, southward across the wind-washed fields, let's add two more cups of raspberry mint drink."

[Paimon: Just blurted it out?!]

[Ying: My nickname is the King of Kings, you know?]

[Hu Tao: Oh~ No wonder you're a traveler]

[Ayaka Kamisato: Travelers are truly multi-talented!]

Zhong Li's evaluation.

"Both lines require familiarity with local customs and specialties; the two travelers must have already traversed the fragrant fields on foot."

Hu Tao was unhappy. If everyone could answer correctly, then what was the point?

She turned to remind Zhong Li.

"Hey, hey, I'm telling you, guest advisor, don't just praise everything. You should question more and ask more questions."

She crossed her arms.

"Don't be afraid of offending people. No matter what, I'll protect you."

[Kaeya: Being protected by the sect leader makes me feel so safe]

Wendy: Of course! I'd be thrilled to have such a great boss.

[Zhongli: Don't you also need someone to keep you in check?]

Upon hearing this, Caryl offered another pair.

"A pure heart is without desire; good governance touches the hearts of the people."

It's clear that Caryl is a master.

This is not only related to the name Qingxin.

It also mentioned its medicinal effects.

The traveler looked up at her ally—Xiao.

Xiao stood on a distant hillside, far from the crowd.

"A beautiful dream is not a dream, but a fleeting dream of a peaceful life."

Everyone felt it didn't match up.

Zhongli asked.

"Oh? Then let me ask you a question, borrowing Master Hu's words: how does 'beautiful dream' compare to 'pure heart'?"

Yingmei explained that it was the name of a dessert.

It is a specialty dish of Xiao.

Not only did I enjoy delicious snacks, but I also slept soundly at night.

There's also the implication that the demon protects everyone's peaceful night.

Xiao looked at Yingmei's explanation.

He turned and disappeared.

【elf:...】

[Funinga: Cough cough, that's a little...cheesy.]

[Ying: Huh?]

Zhongli was very satisfied after hearing this.

"Haha, I also think it's a good match. This point should be awarded."

Hu Tao really couldn't hold back anymore this time.

If you were to be a judge, you would give any score you want.

What's the point of even giving a rating?

Not only the judges, but also Hu Tao felt that the contestants were too conventional.

It's fine to let go and do whatever you want.

Upon hearing this, Xingqiu presented a pair to Hu Tao.

"The moon shines brightly in the sky, and when it is full, people are reunited."

Walnut was very confident.

"Dinner is served underground; a bowl of rice and a bowl full of meat are both provided."

This sentence completely stumped Xingqiu.

Although he often played word games with Hu Tao.

But he still couldn't hold back his tears.

Judge Zhong Li remained remarkably 'neutral'.

He said it expressionlessly.

This is a "heartless couplet."

"The two lines seem unrelated, but the words and phrases are basically in correspondence, each forming a complete whole. It is no less simple than a typical couplet."

Hu Tao interrupted him, "Stop saying so much, just tell me whether or not this point should be given."

Zhongli nodded, "It should be given, of course it should be given."

Wendy: Oh dear, I can't stand it anymore!

[Gan Yu: Your Majesty, what is this...?]

[Ying: Is this the mindset of working people?]

[Paimon: Zhongli's serious expression is so funny, it makes me want to laugh.]

Zhongli: Cough cough...

[Funinga: The judges are all her people, how can you play along with her, Xingqiu?]

Xingqiu felt that this was heartless and outrageous.

But they didn't give up.

Let's play another pair.

"Eight hundred miles of jade pendants, where can one find the reeds that do not return?"

Walnut can say it offhand:

"A pig weighing twenty jin (approximately 10 kg)—which large cooking pot could possibly hold it all?"

Chapter 130 Sweet Flowers Can't Beat Barbara

Xingqiu was stunned. "Huh?"

Paimon truly believed Zhongli's words.

He said to the traveler.

"So this is what they call ruthlessness, right? I feel like I could match two of those myself."

Diona, who was standing next to her, suddenly cried out.

"I've got an idea! 'The hooked fruit can't catch Earl Rabbit!'"

Amber: Huh?

[Yura: This pair is actually quite cute.]

Wendy: Looks like everyone's having a good time.

[Sino: Hmm... hook-shaped berries, berries...]

[Tinari: Don't push yourself, Seno]

Diona finished her first pair.

A man in the crowd eagerly answered.

"Sweetness can't surpass Barbara's sweetness!"

[Barbara: Huh? ? ? ]

Barbara, go for it!

Barbara, go for it!

Wendy chuckled, "Haha, we all felt this friend's enthusiasm, it's just a pity... there's one word missing."

Mika, on the other hand, was deep in thought.

After a moment, he spoke timidly.
