When the little fox pestered Su Ping'an to PK 'Little Joke', the outside world had already caused an uproar.
The news that Su Sheng Xiaomeng had defeated the Wen Gong students of Daming Mansion by leapfrogging the ranks spread like a whirlwind in the streets and alleys.
"Have you heard that Sun Jiufang, a painter and literary cultivator from Daming Prefecture's Wen Palace, came to challenge Su Sheng Xiaomeng this morning, but was defeated!"
"Ah, is this happening?!"
"No, Sun Jiufang is at the seventh realm of scribes. Su Shengxiaomeng is only at the fifth realm of scribes. But in the end, it was Sun Jiufang who lost."
"What? Or were they defeated by a leapfrog? Then it seems that the strength of the famous Wen Gong students is not as strong as imagined. Did we look down on them before?"
"Maybe. I heard that Su Sheng Xiao Meng was just a literary cultivator from a border town, and he easily defeated the elite students of Daming Mansion's literary palace. This sounds a bit outrageous no matter how you hear it..."
"It seems that the people in the Wen Palace of Daming Mansion have been comfortable for too long, and now they are just a name!"
…
As soon as this news came out, the city was abuzz.
In the past, the name of Daming Palace Wen Palace was almost the signature of Daming Palace.
All literary cultivators in the surrounding area of 800 miles are proud to be admitted to the Daming Mansion Literary Palace, just because Daming Mansion is strong enough.
But now, the elite disciples of the Wen Palace of Daming Prefecture came out to challenge a border cultivator, and even though they were two realms higher, they actually lost?!
This is undoubtedly a slap in the face!
This not only slaps all the students of Damingfu Wenggong in the face, but also gives Damingfu Wenggong a heavy blow.
Especially those literary cultivators who had taken the Daming Palace Wen Gong exam but failed. They suddenly felt that just because they didn't pass the exam, they didn't necessarily mean they were poor. Who said that casual cultivators must not be as good as the literary cultivators of Daming Man Palace?!
Isn’t Su Sheng Xiao Meng an example?!
At present, there are more and more voices in the city doubting the Wen Gong of Daming Palace, and gradually it has even become an uproar, and the voices have also divided into two waves.
If one wave is against it, then the other wave will naturally support it.
These defenders are naturally the students of Daming Palace Wen Palace.
They also didn't expect that just a literary cultivator in the palace challenging a civilian cultivator would cause such a big mess.
Now, this turmoil is not only about Sun Jiufang's defeat, but also involves the reputation of Daming Mansion for nearly a thousand years.
…
boom!
Just when all kinds of news were flying outside, the Wen Palace and the Assembly Hall of Daming Mansion.
An old man with a majestic appearance and white hair, who looked calm and intimidating, suddenly slapped his hand on the tea table in front of him, and then said angrily: "Asshole..."
The stern shouts resounded throughout the entire hall, and the majestic aura shook the palace lanterns in the hall to sway one after another, and the faces of the people next to them illuminated by the light became dark and unclear.
In addition to the old man who slapped the table, there were seven other elderly men sitting around the hall.
Among these eight people, six are men and two are women. All of them are above the Wenzong level. They are also the eight elders in charge of the Wen Palace of Daming Mansion.
Although the Wen Palace of Daming Prefecture is called the Wen Palace, it is still a college, so the position of the palace owner is called the dean.
However, the dean has been wandering around all year round, seemingly looking for the possibility of enlightenment and becoming a saint. He has not been seen for nearly a hundred years, so everything in the hospital can be said to be managed by these eight elders.
Nowadays, the status of the Wen Palace of Daming Mansion is stable and everything is operating as usual. The eight elders in charge rarely show up.
But just today, something big suddenly happened, forcing the eight elders to gather together.
"A dignified scholar from the Daming Palace Wen Gong could actually lose to an unknown soldier from the frontier. It is really an embarrassment to our Daming Palace Wen Gong!"
The old man who slapped the table before had nearly 100 years of hair and a beard that hung down to his chest. He looked to be at least eighty years old.
However, literary cultivators are generally well-educated and their appearance has always been younger than their actual age. Therefore, it is speculated that this old man is probably no less than a hundred years old.
But at this moment, when he spoke, his voice was loud and full of momentum. It was obvious that he must have extraordinary attainments in the practice.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, an old woman of the same age next to her, with white eyebrows on her temples, holding a deer-head crutch in her hand, said: "Brother Qing, let's calm down first. It's just a nonsense of a younger brother. What are you doing again?"
Why bother to be so angry?"
The old man named 'Brother Qing' turned around and said angrily: "I'm not angry? Our Daming Palace Wen Palace was founded nearly a thousand years ago. When has such a thing happened? It was just a challenge, but he still lost.
, and he still lost to a literary cultivator two levels lower than him. Now this matter has been spread in the city. Do you know what the people outside think of our Daming Palace Wen Palace now? They all talk about us.
The Wen Palace of Daming Prefecture is not worthy of its name, it is just a false name..."
Hearing this, the old woman frowned slightly, and her face finally turned ugly.
To them, Sun Jiufang is a small matter, Su Sheng's dream is also a small matter... But a student from Daming Mansion Wen Palace lost to a small literary cultivator from the frontier, this is a big deal!
It was related to the reputation of the Wen Palace of Daming Prefecture, so they couldn't help but ignore it.
Next to him, an elder in charge of the Qi Dao branch pondered for a long time, and then finally said: "We have now found out the root cause of this matter. The reason is because a disciple of the Hua Dao branch first reported to the policeman of a restaurant.
The challenge issued by Guan Wenxiu. Regardless of the process, since he has lost now and has also damaged the reputation of our Wen Palace, I think we should expel this person from our Wen Palace first and then find a way to restore it.
The reputation of our literary palace..."
There was some truth in what he said, and someone beside him nodded in agreement.
But when the steward of Huadao Branch heard this, he said: "I object!"
"Why, do you still want to cover up a disciple from the Hua Dao Branch who has harmed the reputation of Wen Palace?" The steward of the Chess Dao Branch thought that this was directed at him, and looked unhappy at the moment.
The old man in charge of the Huadao Branch shook his head and said: "It's not that I want to cover up, but if we expel that student from Wen Palace now, wouldn't it be true and say that we can't afford to lose? And we
How to restore the reputation of our Wen Palace seems to be the key now, right?!"
"How to get it back? Of course, you can get it back no matter how you lost it. I don't believe that a little scribe in a restaurant can really do something incredible."
The elder in charge of the Chess Road Branch had a tough attitude and said in a matter-of-fact tone.
The elder in charge of Hua Dao raised his eyebrows: "Do you mean to let us Wen Gong disciples continue to challenge the Wen Xiu of that restaurant? Doesn't this mean we won't be said to be bullying others with our power?!"
"this……"
As soon as these words came out, the elder in charge of chess immediately fell silent.
Everyone else frowned when they heard their conversation.
In their view, this was originally a simple and trivial matter, but it was related to the reputation of Daming Palace Wen Palace, so everyone paid attention to it.
But now that everyone thought about it more carefully, they discovered that although this matter is small, how to deal with it properly has turned into a trouble.
