"Here you go!" Su Han walked down with the scroll and placed it in Qin Shaoyang's hand.
Qin Shaoyang's face flushed red and then green. He really wanted to immediately burn this painting into ashes but didn't want to ruin his image, so he could only suppress his anger and roll up the painting, handing it over to an assistant beside him.
"Students or teachers from Donghai University's College of Fine Arts, if anyone is willing to come up and showcase their talents" The host rushed forward with a microphone to cover for the awkwardness.
The dean, vice-dean, and professors of the College of Fine Arts glanced at each other; they all felt rather embarrassed and completely forgot that Hao Ren was a student from the College of Fine Arts
With many bigwigs in China's art scene and internationally renowned artists present, even students from the College of Fine Arts dared not take to the stage.
The session where Qin Shaoyang painted on the spot thus passed awkwardly. Next came the student visitation period, during which these old-timers in the art world followed Qin Shaoyang and some leaders from the College of Fine Arts to a secluded corner for tea and conversation.
Hao Ren took advantage of the chaos to sneak back into the crowd and join Zhao Yanzi and others.
At this moment, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili crossed through the barriers and approached an unattended table hidden in the shadows, pulling out a blank scroll from under it and drawing whimsically.
Hao Ren couldn't find Lu Linlin and Lu Xinli, so when he saw Zhao Hongyu was about to take Zhao Yanzi back, he offered to see them off.
Yellow Ferrari belonging to Zhao Hongyu parked right below the library steps. In the night, this high-end sports car stood out particularly.
"Auntie, be careful on your way home," Hao Ren waved as they got into the car.
"Alright, you also study hard. Tomorrow is the exam day." Zhao Hongyu said.
Zhao Yanzi, with a pout, remained silent, her fingers tapping against each other as if she were extremely aggrieved.
The car, leaving behind a red tail light, headed towards the main entrance of the school.
Hao Ren turned around and was just about to head back to his dormitory for revision when he suddenly noticed Lu L琳琳 and Lu 莉莉 standing right behind him.
Caught off guard, Hao Ren took a sudden step backwards, nearly scaring himself into a heart attack.
"Master, tomorrow is the exam!" Lu 琳琳掩嘴笑道。從她的表情來看，很明顯嚇唬郝仁是她的小把戲。
"Master, you used the Sword Decision of Elemental True Qi quite well today," Lu 莉莉麵紅耳赤地說道。顯然，她對於突然跳出來給郝仁一個“驚喜”感到有些過意不去。
Hmm.
— Hao Ren nodded his head. In reality, he had also put in maximum effort today, not expecting that constant conversion of the Five Elements' True Qi and controlling the strength of sword qi would be so exhausting.
"What are you planning to do tonight, Master" they asked him again.
How could I plan— Hao Ren asked them back in confusion. With an exam tomorrow, how could they still think about going out to play
"Revision!" They answered in unison.
Aftersaying this, they pulled out two small packages from behind their backs, containing several books and notebooks.
“You guys don't need to go back tomorrow” Hao Ren asked them.
"Grand Elder Lu has already arranged for us. From today onwards, we will be staying at the school," they said with a smile.
Hao Ren sighed slightly. "Alright then, I'll accompany you two in revision."
Lulina and Luli laughed at each other. "Then we will accompany the young master to the dormitory to get your things."
Hao Ren felt like he was being kidnapped. Helplessly, he smiled and led them to the South Residential Area.
Walking through the campus under the night sky, Hao Ren returned to his dorm in the South Residential Area and asked them to wait outside for a moment while he went upstairs to retrieve some materials.
The residence hall was relatively quiet today as everyone was cramming late into the night to review their semester's worth of coursework.
Hao Ren's dormitory was no different. Zhou Liren and Cao Ronghua, who had been at the library earlier, were back, hunched over copies of Xie Yujia’s notes, studying intently.
When Hao Ren returned, they all stared at him with looks akin to monsters; Hao Ren's performance in the library just now had completely shocked them!
Hao Ren didn't want to explain further. Tomorrow was the midterm exam and he needed to study as well. He picked up the photocopies of Xie Yujia’s notes from his desk, put on three outer coats, and rushed out.
The self-study classroom at night was very cold. Though he knew that Lulina and Luli's powers were extraordinary, even disregarding a thousand-year-old ice block, it still felt strange to only take one coat for himself.
"Ren, where are you going so late" Zhou Liren asked when he saw Hao Ren rush out.
He immediately ran to the balcony. When he saw Lulina and Luli standing together downstairs like two little peonies waiting for Hao Ren, he indignantly shouted, "Seeing a pretty face and forgetting righteousness!"
Hao Ren returned downstairs, gave them two coats, and put one on himself.
"Thank you so much, young master!" Lulina and Luli looked particularly happy as they put on Hao Ren's coat.
All Hao Ren could do was smile. He thought more about tomorrow’s exam. In the past month, he had focused his attention on cultivation and tutoring Zhao Zan Zhuo, missing many important parts of class content. If not for borrowing Xie Yujia’s notes, Hao Ren suspected that he would fail this midterm exam.
Walking through the quiet campus, Hao Ren led them to Building 。
Building was the default self-study classroom in the school and usually stayed open until ten o'clock at night. However, before exams, it remained open all night long.
Hao Ren had never before reviewed his studies in the self-study classroom since he entered university; he would usually stay in his dormitory to read books. Now, seeing couples reviewing together in the self-study classroom, Hao Ren finally understood that this was a place for young lovers to review their lessons side by side.
Everyone else was diligently studying with their respective partners, but Hao Ren brought two beauties to choose classrooms, making him stand out prominently.
Seeing an empty large classroom, Hao Ren mustered up the courage and led Lu Linlin and Lu LiLi in.
The male students who were buried in their books immediately shot Hao Ren glares filled with resentment when they saw him bringing two campus beauties into the room. They thought that someone was showing off while they were struggling to study!
"Alright, let's sit here." Hao Ren found a corner and sat down, spreading out his review materials from his bag.
At this time, in a small tea house that had been temporarily set up in the first-floor lobby of the library, an employee carefully approached with a scroll of paper, asking, "Mr. Qin, isn't this painting forgotten to be framed and hung"
"This… It doesn’t seem like it's my work; where did you get it from" Qin Shaoyang hesitated.
"It was left on the drawing table just now," answered the staff member.
The art masters who were chatting with Qin Shaoyang over a cup of tea came over out of curiosity.
When their eyes fell upon this scroll, they all seemed to have been struck by lightning and became numb. The painting on the paper was merely three simple bamboo shoots; however, they were so vividly depicted that it seemed as if they were alive, swaying gently in the picture!
This… This is a level of artistic skill even the Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou couldn't achieve!
Truly a painting fit for heaven, how could there be such a sight on earth
What made these art masters unbearable was that next to this perfect and astonishingly lifelike depiction of three bamboo shoots stood an awkward little chicken pecking at rice!weren't for losing to him in the Dragon God Temple's examination, how could someone with fourth-tier reviewer status be demoted to a regional reviewer!Seeing Harry Ren now, he couldn’t let this opport...
