The gods descend into reality

However, a question arose in the minds of those present.

What does your first love have to do with our piano playing?!

I don't want to listen, the problem is that this guy's voice is like a demonic chant, constantly ringing in my ears.

"It was a warm spring day, when flowers were in full bloom. Spring had arrived—the season for falling in love. My first love and I made a promise that when we were together, I would play the zither for him, and she would become my wife—"

At this point, Shen Jianxin's face was filled with sorrow.

"It's a pity that she... She accidentally cut her finger while cooking, and eventually died from hemorrhoids. Since then, I have decided to stop playing the zither."

Her greatest wish before she died was for me to find true love. Now that I have found true love, I can never break the vow I made!

Shen Jianxin slapped the energy-infused guqin in front of him, shattering it instantly. A look of utter despair appeared on Shen Jianxin's face.

"Shen Jianxin!"

"Shen Jianxin!"

......

Someone shouted something, and immediately everyone present started shouting in unison. The five judges on the panel looked at each other in bewilderment.

Honestly, if we're not sympathetic right now, won't Wenwen's news criticize me to death tomorrow?!

"The competition may be ruthless, but people are not. I, Gentleman Sword, guarantee with my integrity that Shen Jianxin will pass!"

Yue Buqun spoke, waving his folding fan.

"Silence speaks louder than words. Music is a transmission between hearts. I can already hear the beautiful music that Shen Jianxin played for his first love."

"This music is only found in heaven; how often can it be heard on earth? What a wonderful piece! Young brother, I am unknown; would you like to exchange experiences with me sometime?"

......

Seeing this scene, not only were the others present stunned, but even Xiao Se was completely dumbfounded and petrified.

Holy crap, this is... a sentimental sword technique?!

Chapter 545 Big Ivan is in hand, Merlin (Lily) is getting married?

"Mmm~ This guy playing the instrument, Shen Jianxin, is so devoted!"

Nero hugged Xiao Se's arm and said with tears in her eyes.

Desolate...

Seeing Nero's deeply moved expression, Xiao Se silently turned his face to the side.

Sorry, I really don't know how to respond to that. I can only wait and see what other crazy things these idiots will do.

"Waaaaah, I lost my parents when I was little, and then I suffered multiple comminuted fractures..."

One of the contestants, who had been in despair, suddenly covered his face with his hands and wiped away his tears.

All five judges on stage pressed the elimination button instantly.

"This contestant, while I sympathize with your situation, plagiarism is wrong."

Yue Buqun shook his head as he spoke.

"Completely lacking in innovative thinking."

Xiao Chuhe also spoke up.

"I......"

"Poor acting skills."

Anonymous commented.

"Unqualified."

In contrast, the two female judges, Xiaolongnu and Yue Qiluo, were much more direct, at least they didn't rub salt into people's wounds.

What is that?

Are Xiaolongnu and Yue Qiluo not very good at music?

Sorry, but what we want is the identity of a judge, the so-called judge—

If I say you can do it, you can, even if you can't!

If I say you can't, then you can't, even if you can!

What followed was a scene of utter chaos, with competition so fierce it was unprecedented.

Some people cheat, some try to emulate Shen Jianxin's shameless approach, and of course, there are also those with genuine talent and ability.

For example, the Puppet King.

He looks rugged, and even a major villain, but he seems to be exceptionally skilled in painting.

In the subsequent Gomoku game, he was the first to defeat his opponent, and in the subsequent calligraphy competition, he tied for first place with Shen Jianxin's self-created "ugly (drawing) calligraphy".

"Hey bro, that's enough already. You promised you wouldn't compete with me for Miss Meryl."

Shen Jianxin approached the Puppet King and said with a speechless expression.

The first three rounds of the competitions on music, chess, calligraphy, and painting have already been completed.

He won the battle of playing the zither by relying on the emotional sword techniques recorded in the Chunyang Manual.

But the Puppet King actually won the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix by virtue of his own strength!

If one instance could only be considered a coincidence, then in the subsequent Othello matches...

Everyone thought it was a Go match, but the Puppet King discovered the difference at the same time as himself!

He actually discovered that it was Gomoku!

Besides that, there's this guy's wild cursive script.

None of the judges present recognized him, and he received the highest score to date!

If it weren't for my own inner power suddenly bursting forth, and coming up with an unparalleled piece of calligraphy on the spot—ugly calligraphy!

We almost lost.

I think I've met my true love!

The Puppet King looked at Shen Jianxin and said seriously.

"Isn't your true love in that foot massage parlor? Be careful, or I'll expose this. Forget it, Miss Mary would never fall for a burly man who's always soaking his feet and picking at them! →_→"

Shen Jianxin said disdainfully.

"Would Miss Meryl like a simp? Besides, I took pictures when we were soaking our feet together."

The Puppet King's words made Shen Jianxin clutch his chest, his mouth agape in astonishment, his finger trembling as he pointed at the Puppet King.

"How...how insidious! Then let's settle this fairly!"

"I can't ask for it!"

Their eyes met for a moment, and a faint electric current seemed to pass between them.

"The next round will test your drawing skills. Each contestant will have a blank sheet of paper in front of them. Please draw whatever you like. Later, our five judges will come to evaluate your work and choose a suitable husband for Miss Meryl!"

Although there are fewer than ten contestants remaining.

The atmosphere at the scene was no longer as enthusiastic as before.

But none of that matters, since it wasn't a proper matchmaking event to begin with.

As long as the money is in hand, that's all that matters.

As for the group behind them—

If you have a desire, you can always eliminate it, so there's no need to say what you're drawing; just go through the motions.

As soon as the host finished speaking, the contestants began to draw one by one.

"Judges, I'm finished!"

Before the time it takes to drink a cup of tea was up, Shen Jianxin shouted.

In an instant, all the other contestants in the arena looked at Shen Jianxin with serious expressions.

This person—

Master!

Although many people present could create a painting in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

But how could one possibly be perfunctory on such an important occasion in one's life?

You should know to see—

That's Miss Meryl!

Miss Meryl's magical girl column, updated on the World Tree Network, has garnered a large following, with at least one-tenth of the world's male readers becoming her fans.

Although many other girls called her a "green tea b*tch" or "pretentious."

but--

They were actually just jealous of Miss Mary's beauty.

If it were just about beauty, that would be one thing, especially after the interconnectedness of the universe, and especially after the World Tree developed the network.

There are still plenty of beautiful women there.

such as--

Little Dragon Girl, Yue Qiluo, Nero, Scáthach, the Angel of Amagi...

There are just too many beautiful women!

To be honest, Miss Meryl isn't particularly outstanding among all these beauties, but she has more fans than all the other goddesses combined!

why?

Other goddesses are just pretty, but Miss Meryl seems to know exactly what men want. How can you not be a fan of a girl like that?!

Now that we have the opportunity to marry Miss Mary, we should definitely seize it!

Unexpectedly, Shen Jianxin, who was known for his opportunism, was also quite capable, having finished the drawing in such a short time. Immediately, everyone looked at Shen Jianxin.
