discovered that Li Qinglei was really a good person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he even opened his mouth to coax, Li Qinglei took the initiative to act as a tout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And below the arena, Lan Pili also cooperated by shouting, “Afraid?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our Hundred Peaks Sect never knows what fear is!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peak Master Cao, debate with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is no reason for our Hundred Peaks Sect to retreat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thoughts of the people around them began to stir again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could Cao Zhen be skilled in poetry, calligraphy, painting, and also musical rhythm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How old was Cao Zhen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where did he find the time to study so many disciplines?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I bet three hundred thousand taels of Spirit Stones on Elder Xue winning,” a man from an unknown Immortal Sect clenched his teeth fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to win back all the Spirit Stones he had lost before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previous victories were coincidental, since Cao Zhen was also skilled in calligraphy and painting, he won against Elder Xue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next competition would still be in Elder Xue’s area of expertise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He refused to believe that Cao Zhen could be proficient in it as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Elder Xue, a master of the Four Extremes, not win a single discipline!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any individual who could overpower Elder Xue would definitely be from the Four Extremes Sect, not the Hundred Peaks Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding crowd seemed to think the same, starting to place their bets aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Two hundred thousand taels of Spirit Stones…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I bet four hundred thousand taels of Spirit Stones…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, the crowd had bet another five million taels of Spirit Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Zhen had no instrument on him, but luckily, among the disciples who accompanied him, there was one from Zither Music Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out a long zither and placed it in front of him, looked up at Elder Xue and said, “Let’s perform together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll play the ‘Breaking Formation Robe Swamp Melody’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever makes the first mistake is the loser.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only melody he knew from the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty was the ‘Breaking Formation Robe Swamp Melody’ that he once performed at the Thousand Caves Door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, we’ll play the ‘Breaking Formation Robe Swamp Melody’.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Xue also took a long zither out of his Qiankun Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unclear if he originally excelled in the zither, or if he chose it deliberately after seeing Cao Zhen use one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people around them saw their movements and felt relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since Peak Master Cao doesn’t even have his own musical instrument, he will likely lose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The two are using the same instrument.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This time, Elder Xue has no reason to lose.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Xue is from the Four Extremes Sect, there’s no way he’ll lose every debate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the discussions, the two started playing soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it was Cao Zhen’s first time playing the zither, he already had experience performing twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ‘Breaking Formation Robe Swamp Melody’ wasn’t new to him either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was slightly unfamiliar at the start, but soon he fell into his own rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sound after sound emanated from the zithers, invigorating and stirring the listeners’ spirits, as if they were on a battlefield…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, they even forgot they were watching a debate, completely immersed in the music, until…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ding…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A light sound echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of Elder Xue, a zither string suddenly snapped, and the music abruptly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Zhen ceased his playing as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All around, the audience snapped back to reality, their faces filled with disbelief as they stared at Elder Xue, who sat frozen and expressionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Xue had lost again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Xue, from the Four Extremes Sect, reputed to be proficient in all four arts, had lost all of them to Cao Zhen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lost to the Hundred Peaks Sect’s Peak Master who ranked last in standing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the two, who was the real person from Zither Music Peak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could this be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Cao Zhen, a member of the Hundred Peaks Sect, be so proficient in poetry, calligraphy, painting, and musical rhythm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Xue has lost again, and all my Spirit Stones are gone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve lost a total of seven hundred thousand taels of Spirit Stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I lost nine hundred thousand—more than you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Cao Zhen win!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people around each had gloomy faces—no one is happy about losing money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Elder Xue hadn’t lost any money, his face was more unsightly than anyone else’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While others only lost some Spirit Stones, he lost face for the Four Extremes Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Four Extremes Sect, as the name suggests, was known for mastering the Four Extremes—poetry, calligraphy, painting, and music!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in these four disciplines, he lost to Cao Zhen in every single one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, it all happened in front of so many people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Capital City, not some remote village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People from all the Immortal Sects were here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without needing to wait until tomorrow, the news of his defeat to Cao Zhen would spread everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qinglei, Ougao Yi, and Kou Shaoyuan from Divine Occurrence Sect had equally unsightly expressions as if they were the ones who lost rather than Elder Xue from the Four Extremes Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had lost Spirit Stones, and even though the amounts were significant to them, what made them even more uncomfortable was Cao Zhen’s victory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, they had wanted to humiliate Cao Zhen and give the Hundred Peaks Sect a blow, but now it seemed as if they were facilitating the Hundred Peaks Sect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling displeased, Lan Pili walked over triumphantly, extending a hand and said, “Gentlemen, let’s settle the Spirit Stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qinglei glared at Lan Pili, and with clear discontent, passed over the Spirit Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lan Pili received the Spirit Stones, he even thanked them, “Thank you, Dao Companion Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without your suggestion, we wouldn’t have earned so many Spirit Stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qinglei nearly burst out with expletives in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Pili must be doing this on purpose—it was the classic act of playing dumb after gaining an advantage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people around overheard Lan Pili’s remark and turned to look at Li Qinglei, who had been the one to initially suggest adding a bet.\u003C\u002Fp>",1040,"2026-06-05T20:16:53.192Z",1,"novelbin.me","a42e8a3366ce8e558f4dfadd2f8d7ce2544a618d738bd7a8145c33c43514de1c","my-master-knows-it-all-chapter-442","my-master-knows-it-all-chapter-440",2520,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-master-knows-it-all-cover.jpg"]
