The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1126 The lotus becomes eight petals

After Fang Yun praised Wang Guodong, white light once again shone from the page of the article, falling on the heads of twelve people.

The concentration of white light was almost the same before, but now, the concentration of white light is clearly visible. Some people's white light is exhausted after just one or two breaths.

This time, only four people condensed into the fifth lotus!

Yan Yukong from the Qing Kingdom, Sun Naiyong from the Wu Kingdom, Zeng Nianhai from the Shihan Ancient Land, and Fang Yun from the Jing Kingdom.

As soon as the five-petal lotus condensed, a strong wind five times stronger than before emerged from Fang Yun and the four people, sweeping in all directions.

Those with four lotus petals could still hold on, while those with three lotus petals looked embarrassed. Yun Ziye, who had only condensed two lotus petals, was finally unable to match the huge gap between the three lotus petals, and he and the lotus leaf fell into the lotus pond together. .

The wind and waves were raging, and even though Yun Ziye was a Jinshi and had a strong body, he kept flopping and struggling. Water from the lotus pond kept pouring into his nasal cavity, causing him to choke and cough.

No one went to save him, everyone just sighed softly.

This is the cruel side of competing for the head of the country. Once anyone fails, they will inevitably suffer pain. If the head of the country is not determined, those people will also be punished in Yun Kongtian.

This is a rule set by the saints to let everyone know that when you cannot surpass everyone and become the true number one among your peers, you will always face failure and you can never be proud.

Some number one scholars will fall silent for a while after failing to compete for the head of the country. Except for one or two people who have failed to recover in a hundred years, the rest will continue to grow, especially when faced with critical moments, their performance far exceeds that of their peers.

When the wind calmed down, Yun Ziye surfaced from the water, with a look of shame on his face, and said: "Everyone, go on, I'll go ashore first."

Kong Delun smiled and said: "Don't forget to drink together tonight."

Yun Ziye nodded, his face looking better than before.

What Confucius said at this time was the greatest comfort to Yun Ziye.

The page of Dezhi tilted again, and light flowed down.

The others stared at the four of them slightly nervously.

In an ordinary year, one or two people forming a five-petal lotus is the limit, but this year, there were actually four people who formed a five-petal lotus.

Talented people may not necessarily have lofty aspirations.

But most people who aspire to lofty ideals are far superior to their peers!

Six petals is a watershed. When you reach six petals, you not only have high ambitions, but also are far firmer than everyone else. The most terrifying thing is the confidence that is closely related to "establishing the heart".

Suddenly, the writing pages of Sun Naiyong and Zeng Nianhai stopped, and soon, only Fang Yun and Yan Yukong condensed a six-petaled lotus.

The storm rises.

The number one scholar in the storm was not only not angry, but also showed a hint of joy.

Fang Yun and Yan Yukong were originally extremely talented, but now they have condensed a six-petaled lotus flower, and their future achievements will be higher than expected!

In history, all the number one scholars who condensed the six-petaled lotus flower became great Confucians, and the weakest ones were Wenzong, and even became semi-saints.

The wind and waves caused by the six-petal lotus were stronger. Those who gathered the three-petal lotus struggled desperately, but most of them fell into the water and received the same treatment as Yun Ziye.

But this time everyone's attitude was relatively calm, because many people fell into the water, which was not as tragic as Yun Ziye's one person falling into the water.

After the wind calmed down and the waves subsided, the people who fell into the water swam towards the shore. Some of them even didn't care.

There were only thirteen people left in the lotus pond.

Two of them had six petals, two had five petals, eight of them all had four petals, and only one had three petals, and that was Wang Guodong of Zhen Yuhai!

Although his lotus flower is not many, but his determination is strong, it can even compare to four petals!

The many scholars in the stands became more and more excited and talked about it, becoming more and more optimistic about this year's No. 1 pick.

Some scholars in Zhenyuhai even united to cheer for Wang Guodong.

The people of Jingguo were no longer too lazy to laugh at Qingguo and the Lei family. They kept praising Fang Yun and hoping that Fang Yun would create a miracle and break the national record of nine-petal lotus set by the literary giant Yi Zhishi and others.

The Zong family and the Lei family stared nervously at the lotus pond, their expressions very ugly. They were no longer in the mood to say anything.

However, a few young people continued to complain without knowing the importance.

"Fang Xusheng is indeed superior to ordinary people, but the possibility of reaching the nine-petal lotus of seniors such as Yi Zhishi, Xi Yunxiao or Chen Qingzhi is very small!"

"Yes, even if he reaches Jiulian in the lotus pond, don't forget that there is Yan Yukong! And he may not be able to blow off the lotus leaves of others."

"The people of Jingguo have never seen the world. Look how happy they are."

Some people nearby frowned and looked at the two families, but they didn't say anything.

In the lotus pond, Sun Naiyong said helplessly: "We have fallen into a trap! Before fighting for the head of state, we should not discuss whether to give way to Fang Xusheng, but we should discuss whether he and Yan Yukong should give way to us!"

Zeng Nianhai smiled helplessly and said: "Yes, if the last two people condense eight lotus or even nine lotus, we will all fall into the water, and only the two of them will step into the lava cave hand in hand!"

"It's so sad to be the same generation as Fang Yun and Yan Yukong! Not to mention their amazing talents, they even have such strong ambitions. After the head of state is over, we must see what ambitions these two have set!"

The pages of the articles above Fang Yun and Yan Yukong tilted for the seventh time!

Without any surprise, the two of them condensed into the seventh-petal lotus, looking at each other and smiling.

"Thank you both for being able to laugh!"

A champion yelled half-jokingly, and was immediately overturned by the wind and waves.

Zeng Nianhai and Sun Naiyong both had five-petal lotuses and could persevere. Four of the eight people with four-petal lotuses quickly fell into the water, but four of them persisted on the lotus leaves and did not fall.

Even though there was a gap of three petals, these four people did not fall into the water, which shows that their determination is similar to Wang Guodong.

Wang Guodong, who only had three petals of lotus, was extremely embarrassed, his whole body was wet by the pool water, and he was swaying in the wind and waves, but in the end he did not fall into the water!

Warm cheers rang out in the stands, and almost everyone was praising Wang Guodong.

The champions could not hear the outside world, but they could see it.

Fang Yun looked at Wang Guodong and smiled, "Brother Guodong, they must be cheering for you!"

Wang Guodong smiled faintly and nodded gently.

Sun Naiyong said, "I hope you two don't condense the eighth petal of lotus. People like Wang Guodong who are determined can easily walk to Yunkongtian in previous years, and even become one of the final winners. As a result, they met you two!"

As soon as Sun Naiyong finished speaking, the determination document tilted again.

Everyone stared with wide eyes.

Fang Yun and Yan Yukong condensed eight petals of lotus at the same time!

A ten-foot-high green wind emerged from the two people and surged wildly in all directions.

Wang Guodong, who only had three petals of lotus, finally couldn't resist the gap of five petals and fell into the water helplessly.

Among the four champions with four petals of lotus, except for Kongcheng champion Kong Delun who was still sitting on the lotus leaf, the other three all fell into the water!

There were only five people left on the lotus leaf.

There were exclamations in the stands.

"This reminds me of Mr. Zhishi's year!"

"Yes, Mr. Zhishi's lotus had nine petals, the other two had seven petals, and one had five petals. Only four people passed through the lotus pond. So that people from various countries complained about the champions who fell into the water in their own countries. If it weren't for Yi Zhishi, at least five or six more champions would have entered the lava cave."

"I wonder if Fang Yun and Yan Yukong can condense the highest nine petals!"
