Chapter 229: Ye Xuan's commentary, a lesson worth millions?!

~6 min read 1,192 words

Just as the live streaming room was flooded, the number one contestant who was commented on by Ye Xuan puffed up her cheeks angrily and couldn't help but retort.

"How is it not a poem?"

The little girl's tone was full of unwillingness, obviously suspecting that Ye Xuan was talking nonsense!

As soon as the voice fell, a gasp sounded off-stage.

Some contestants covered their mouths, obviously not expecting this number one contestant to dare to question the judge on the spot.

Some contestants hurriedly sat up straight and stretched their necks, looking like they were watching a good show.

There were also some seemingly calm contestants who didn't move, but their ears were clearly pricked up high.

And the audience in the live streaming room was even more eager to watch the fun, already flooding the screen crazily.

"Damn, damn! This is only the first contestant, is it this intense?!"

"It makes me so nervous, but also so excited! My heart is about to jump out!"

"Is this a battle between students and mentors?!"

"Is Ye Xuan okay?! Isn't he a novelist? How would he know how to comment on poetry?! Could he be talking nonsense?"

Even the host, Chairman Liu, on stage couldn't help but clench his fists and break into a sweat.

It's just that when he looked at the other three judges, he found that the other three judges were still sitting as steady as a bell, looking not worried at all.

???

What's going on?!

At this moment, Ye Xuan, as the focus of the crowd, slowly stood up and asked.

"Then let me ask you, what is the most basic element of poetry?"

Once the question was thrown out, a look of confusion flashed across the face of the number one contestant.

The contestants off-stage also looked confused one by one.

Obviously, it was the first time they heard that poetry had basic elements.

Scanning around, Ye Xuan couldn't help but hold his forehead.

He still overestimated everyone's mastery of poetry in this world.

"Poetry has four major elements: rhyme, four tones, level and oblique tones, and parallelism..."

With Ye Xuan's explanation, many contestants showed a look of sudden realization.

It was obviously the first time they heard that there were so many requirements for poetry.

At this time, many contestants looked at Ye Xuan differently.

Isn't this guy here to join the fun?

How does he know so much about poetry?!

There were also contestants who felt that Ye Xuan was just talking on paper, moving his lips, and still looked indifferent on the surface.

Seeming to sense everyone's gaze, Ye Xuan curled his lips and suddenly spoke.

"I'll give a few examples at random, just taking the flower that the number one contestant mentioned just now as an example, combined with the four elements of poetry just mentioned."

"Want to describe a lily: 'Clusters of fragrant lilies, a frame of pink long spring.'"

"Want to describe plum blossoms: 'Sparse shadows slant across the clear shallow water, secret fragrance floats in the dusk of the moon.'"

"Want to describe chrysanthemums: 'Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountain.'"

"Want to describe peonies: 'Only the peony is the true national color, the city moves when the flowers bloom.'"

"Want to describe lotus flowers: 'The lotus leaves reaching the sky are infinitely green, the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are exceptionally red.'"

"Do you understand now?"

Until Ye Xuan's last sentence fell, the whole scene suddenly fell into silence.

Only the rustling sound of writing was still ringing faintly.

The contestants present were even more dumbfounded, obviously not believing the scene they had just heard.

Many contestants who were indifferent to Ye Xuan just now had already sat up straight, their expressions changing one after another.

Many contestants who originally wanted to join the fun had their original playful smiles vanished.

Looking at it, all the contestants vividly interpreted what it means to be dumbfounded.

The previous indifference and unconcern were completely overturned, turning into astonishment, daze, disbelief, and a thick look of shock.

Is this really the Ye Xuan they thought was here to just tag along?!

Isn't he here to just go through the motions?!

These examples one by one simply blew up their own poetry works.

At this time, the live streaming room also exploded.

"?????"

"Damn, damn!"

"I have to start doubting my ears. 'Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountain'?! This sentence has such a beautiful artistic conception!"

"Ye Xuan has refreshed my worldview again! Is this kid hiding so deep?!"

"My mom severely criticized my behavior of watching the live stream just now, and now she has joined. PS: Forgot to say, my mom is a university Chinese professor 【crying】"

"Comparing like this, I also agree with Ye Xuan's sharp tongue just now; how can that count as a poem just now?!"

"Damn! You guys hurry up and see what those three judges are doing?!"

Compared to the reactions of the audience off-stage and netizens in the live streaming room, the three judges beside Ye Xuan had been taking out paper and pens to record crazily since Ye Xuan started giving examples, for fear of missing any sentence.

As the first example was given, the three judges still had a look of secret admiration in their eyes.

But as more and more examples came out, the astonishment in their eyes was almost becoming substantial.

Does Ye Xuan have no bottleneck?!

Every sentence, when savored carefully, is an eternal famous line.

If an ordinary person wants to come up with one sentence, it is enough to be ecstatic.

But Ye Xuan is merely giving an example for the first contestant right now?!

This also means how vast Ye Xuan's own poetry reserve is!

That's why he can be so at ease and effortless!

The picture returns to the stage.

The number one contestant standing on the stage finally reacted from the daze just now.

And the next instant, her eyes became brighter and brighter, and the look of surprise almost overflowed.

Every word of Ye Xuan was echoing in her brain at this time.

As each example came out, she only felt that her brain was subjected to a burst of vibration after another.

So poetry can be written like this?!

So there are such beautiful sentences?!

So this is the real poetry?!

At this moment, she finally remembered the last sentence Ye Xuan asked her just now, and quickly approached the microphone and said loudly.

"Mr. Ye Xuan, thank you..."

Seeming to be at a loss for words and not finding suitable wording, the number one contestant racked her brains and finally only popped out this sentence.

"Your one-on-one private tutoring class!"

The sound transmitted through the microphone also pulled the whole scene back from the shock just now.

That's right.

Ye Xuan's teaching just now, with both theory and practice, isn't it a vivid private poetry tutoring class?!

At this time, Dong Qin among the judges' table couldn't help but pick up the microphone, her eyes filled with excitement. ===== CHAPTER 232 =====
