Chapter 888: Chapter 888: Yang Xiaotian Takes Out a Xylophone Chapter 888: Chapter 888: Yang Xiaotian Takes Out a Xylophone How about a wager?
Everyone was taken aback by the suggestion.
Even Young Master Jiusheng looked at Yang Xiaotian with puzzled eyes, not understanding what Yang Xiaotian intended to do?
He laughed and said, “May I ask what the Young Mansion Master would like to wager?”
In Yang Xiaotian’s hand appeared a Ti Divine Stele, “I’ve heard that Kaitian Academy also has a Ti Divine Stele. If my performance is not as good as yours, this Ti Divine Stele will belong to Kaitian Academy. If your performance is not as good as mine, then the one from your academy will belong to .”
If he could get the Ti Divine Stele from Kaitian Academy, only two more were needed to complete the set.
Following that, Yang Xiaotian also brought out a Chaos Spirit Vein, “However, one Ti Divine Stele is perhaps too little, I also have a Chaos Spirit Vein, so let’s add a Chaos Spirit Vein to the bet!”
He desperately needed the Chaos Spirit Vein to cultivate his Chaos Divine Body.
While everyone was shocked at Yang Xiaotian’s Chaos Spirit Vein, he wasn’t done yet and took out a jade vase, opened it, “Inside here is sixty drops of Heavenly Dao Holy Water.”
“It’s a burden for to carry it around, so let’s add these sixty drops of Heavenly Dao Holy Water to the wager!”
He rembered his senior brother, Zhao Ming, ntioning that Kaitian Academy had a lot of Heavenly Dao Holy Water. Unfortunately, that was all he had with him at the mont.
Otherwise, he could have added even more.
All eyes were stunned by the Ti Divine Stele, Chaos Spirit Vein, and Heavenly Dao Holy Water in Yang Xiaotian’s hands.
The Ti Divine Stele wasn’t that much of a deal, but the Chaos Spirit Vein and Heavenly Dao Holy Water were a massive visual shock to the crowd.
An entire Chaos Spirit Vein!
And a full sixty drops of Heavenly Dao Holy Water!
Even Zhao Ming and the Heaven and Earth Dominator were surprised.
Young Master Jiusheng was filled with uncertainty, then looked towards the Kaitian Dominator. The Kaitian Dominator looked at Yang Xiaotian and laughed, “I didn’t expect the Young Mansion Master to be so bold! Good, we at Kaitian Academy will take the bet!”
Then he scanned the crowd from Heaven and Earth Divine Mansion, “Is there anyone else who wants to join the wager?”
“However much there is, Kaitian Academy will take it!”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ming pondered and then said, “Since that’s the case, then I will add two Divine dicine plants that are twenty million years old.”
He took out the two Divine dicine plants, and instantly, the hall was filled with a dicinal fragrance.
Although he didn’t think Yang Xiaotian had much of a chance of winning, as the acting Mansion Master of Heaven and Earth Divine Mansion, he had to support his junior brother.
“I will also add two million-year God dicine plants,” Princess Huang Yan of Eternal Divine Kingdom suddenly said.
People glanced at Huang Yan.
But Huang Yan’s face showed no blush, and her heart did not skip a beat.
“I will also add one million-year God dicine plant,” Hong Feng declared.
This million-year God dicine plant had been given to him by the Great Profound Sword Sect Ancestor, and he hadn’t had a chance to refine and assimilate it yet.
Afterward, Dongfang Ao also added to the wager, twenty Divine Spirit Veins.
The Heaven and Earth Dominator laughed, “Since so many have added to the wager, I shall add as well.” As he said this, he took out a Chaos Spirit Vein, though his was much larger than Yang Xiaotian’s and the Chaos Spiritual Qi was much stronger and purer.
“A Middle Grade Chaos Spirit Vein!” exclaid Young Master Jiusheng.
Chaos Spirit Veins are categorized as Lower Grade, Middle Grade, High Grade, and Supre.
The one that Yang Xiaotian held was a Lower Grade Chaos Spirit Vein—rare as it was, a Middle Grade was an even rarer find.
Seeing this, the Kaitian Dominator smiled and said, “Senior Guo seems to have a lot of confidence in your disciple.” Then he announced, “Fine, Kaitian Academy will take on all bets!”
Of course, this wasn’t a show of bravado, but rather his absolute confidence in his disciple, Young Master Jiusheng.
Young Master Jiusheng looked towards Yang Xiaotian, “May I know what piece the Young Mansion Master is planning to play?”
Everyone knew of his profound skill in playing the zither, and had he chosen the piece, it would have been sowhat unfair to Yang Xiaotian, so he let Xiaotian choose.
“Since it’s a day of celebration, let’s play ‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’,” Yang Xiaotian said with a smile.
‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’ was not a complex piece; it was a Level Seven zither score commonly played on festive occasions.
Zither masters were categorized from Level One to Ten, above Level Ten were the Zither Kings, and above them were the Zither Gods, Zither Saints, and Zither Immortals.
Young Master Jiusheng’s zither music had reached the Manifest Saint level, which surpassed the realm of a Zither God and attained that of a Zither Saint.
As long as one was a zither master of Level Seven or higher, they could play a piece like ‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’ which was a Level Seven zither score.
Seeing that Yang Xiaotian had chosen ‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’, Young Master Jiusheng nodded with a smile, “Very well, then I shall humbly offer my performance first. I ask the Young Mansion Master and the esteed guests to appreciate it.”
With that, he brought out a zither.
This zither, ancient and fragrant, bore images of various divine beasts from the Desolate Era.
“Beast Language Zither!”
The Beast Language Zither, though not one of the ten great sacred zithers of the Divine Domain, was an extrely famous instrunt, said to have been crafted by a legendary zither saint from the Desolate Era.
Young Master Jiusheng placed the zither on the table, sat down, stilled his mind, and began to play.
In an instant, a pleasant zither sound flowed out like rippling water.
The zither music of Young Master Jiusheng sotis sounded like high mountains and flowing rivers, sotis like surging seas, sotis like dragons soaring through the sky, and sotis like the king of beasts walking the earth.
His zither music seemingly ushered everyone into a wondrous world.
Moving clouds and flowing water were the realm of a Level Ten zither master, but now the zither music of Young Master Jiusheng had transcended this realm and entered one that was utterly fascinating!
There sat Young Master Jiusheng, as if he were one with the zither, and the zither was an extension of himself.
“Unity of man and zither, utterly captivating!”
“The realm of a Zither King!”
An ancestor exclaid in surprise.
Although a Level Seven zither piece could be played by any master of Level Seven or above, to play such an ordinary score in a way that was utterly captivating was extrely difficult!
The more ordinary the score, the more difficult it was to captivate the listeners.
At that mont, suddenly, Young Master Jiusheng’s hands sped up, leaving afterimages in mid-air, and notes were seen flying out from the zither.
Moreover, these notes continuously transford, solidifying into a phoenix and a True Dragon!
“Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness! This is the highest realm of ‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’! The music has beco spiritual!” a zither master excitedly claid.
‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’, if played to the highest standard, would be when the music becos spiritual, solidifying into a dragon and a phoenix, achieving the true aning of auspiciousness.
However, turning music into spirit required at least the realm of a Zither God.
Even Sovereign Zhao Ming of the Pale Blood had to express his admiration for Young Master Jiusheng’s mastery of the zither.
When Young Master Jiusheng finished playing, the music lingered in everyone’s ears for a long ti after he stopped, and the phoenix and True Dragon that had ford from the music circled the hall before gradually dispersing.
Everyone remained seated, their hearts still stirred for a long ti.
All eyes turned to Yang Xiaotian.
Sovereign Zhao Ming frowned, having held onto a sliver of hope, but now that Young Master Jiusheng had played ‘Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness’ to its highest level, he feared his disciple was bound to lose?
Lin Wei, amidst the crowd, looked at Yang Xiaotian and sneered.
Under everyone’s gaze, Yang Xiaotian took out a wooden zither.
Seeing the wooden zither in Yang Xiaotian’s hands, Young Master Jiusheng was puzzled. He could tell that the zither was not a famous one and appeared freshly made.
