When twelve people appeared and stood opposite Xu Que, one of them was dumbfounded for a moment, and even his steps that had just stood firm began to tremble.

Xu Que didn't expect that there was Chen Jichong among them, but thinking about what Sister Ye sent back that night, Xu Que understood it instantly.

Of the forty-seven direct descendants of the Chen family, forty-four were killed, and three of them, Chen Jichong, Chen Guangzu, and Chen Yansheng, were not found!

"Xu, Xu...Xu Que!" Chen Jichong stuttered: "You, why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to take the college entrance examination." Xu Que showed a playful smile: "But you, a scholar, actually got mixed up with a group of scholars, and your dress looks like a Beimang person!"

At this moment, Chen Jichong felt more uncomfortable than eating a fly. How could he answer? Could he tell Xu Que that he was already a student at Beimang? That was obviously asking for his own death, and until now, he still didn't know why his family hadn't replied to him yet.

"Brother Xu Que, I don't mean to think that his clothes are those of Beimang people!" Lu Zijian said immediately.

"Chen Jichong, do you know this person?" asked a young man next to Chen Jichong.

"This person is the Xu Que I told you about!" Chen Jichong replied.

"Oh, it turns out he is Xu Que. I thought he had three heads and six arms!" Another young man said with a smile.

Xu Que ignored the two men's ridicule and instead asked Chen Jichong: "Do you know that your life is in my hands?"

Hearing Xu Que's words, Chen Jichong trembled all over, and his whole expression suddenly became depressed.

Just when everyone was puzzled, with a plop, Chen Jichong knelt down directly to Xu Que: "Please bypass me, and I will give you all the Chen family's property!"

Xu Que smiled, a sinister smile. He walked up to Chen Jichong and whispered something into Chen Jichong's ear. Then he took out the bet signed by the two that day and put it in Chen Jichong's hand.

Chen Jichong was not hysterical and mad, nor was he roaring in anger. He only had fear now, which was the fear of Xu Que from the bottom of his heart!

He originally thought he could avoid this disaster by avoiding Xu Que and heading to Beimang, but as a result, his Chen family was gone...and he was reduced to a lost dog!

"Fan Lao, you and I are classmates, why do you want to trap me into being unkind, unjust, loyal and unfilial!" Chen Jichong raised his eyes and looked at Fan Lao beside him.

Xu Que's eyes widened when he heard the name. He knew information about this person from his uncle. Hu Shichang was able to return to Beimang safely. This person played a big role. He didn't expect that he would meet him here. Got it!

"Little brother..." Xu Fan was about to say something, but Xu Que immediately stopped him.

Xu Que shook his head slightly, and then moved his gaze from Fan Lao to Chen Jichong.

Fan Lao didn't dare anymore and immediately asked: "Brother Jichong, what do you mean by this? Why do you mean that I have accused you of being unkind, unjust, loyal and unfilial?"

Chen Jichong was just about to get up and get angry, but Xu Que immediately jumped in and said, "Do you still want to bet? If you don't bet, get out of the guild hall!"

Hearing Xu Que's arrogant words, Nanfengzhou Shixiu laughed, and they laughed "haha" at the same time.

"This little country bumpkin dares to speak out arrogant words and challenge our top ten talents in Nanfeng City. He must be beaten to death." A young man with oily hair and pink face said with a smile.

"Brother Yang, why should you be angry? It's not easy for us to kill him. We might as well consider how to punish him!" Another young man in green shirt said.

"That's right, I would like to see what Xu Que is capable of, and he is actually said to be a scholar of colorful poems!" Wen Li, who looked a bit wretched, said with disdain.

Li Man and Qiu Feng, two of the ten most talented people, looked at each other and laughed.

"Brother Li and Brother Qiu, do you want to join in the excitement?" Du Xian asked.

"For a young rookie, I'm going to bully him. If Brother Du is interested, I'm willing to accompany him." Qiu Feng said with a smile.

"Brother Qiu is wrong. He wants to challenge us and ask us to get out of the club. Don't you think it's ridiculous?" Li Man said with a smile.

Although Li Man finished speaking, Shixiu laughed "haha" again.

Chen Jichong, who was kneeling on the ground, also clenched his fists. If Shi Xiu won, does that mean he didn't have to die? But he didn't dare to get up and commit suicide. If he made Xu Que unhappy, he would be finished now!

As for the hatred of his family's destruction, he will definitely go back to investigate after Beimang completely takes over Zheyang County!

Xu Que did not tell Chen Jichong that he had destroyed the Chen family. Instead, he told Chen Jichong that he had caused disasters to the family after treason, leading to the destruction of the Chen family, and then said that he was unkind and unjust, so as to make Chen Jichong fall into trouble again. In regret.

In fact, Xu Que didn't expect that Chen Jichong would directly change his country. Therefore, he wanted to see if he could get something out of Chen Jichong, but he never expected that he actually got Fan Lao out. This was The greatest information!

"Okay, let's not waste time anymore, let's just let this kid start!" said Guo Zixiao, one of the top ten talents.

As Guo Zixiao finished speaking, the surrounding students from the two countries gave way to the hall.

"Boy, how do you plan to bet?" Liu Yunian asked Xu Que.

"Poetry, poetry, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, theory and debate, you can do whatever you want. As long as I lose, I will destroy my literary foundation. If you lose, just do the same as me." Xu Que replied.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked shocked, and Shixiu's expression became solemn. Although they were not as famous as Xu Quexue, each of them had unique skills!

"Are you sure?" Huai Zinian asked.

"Sure!" Xu Que replied with a smile.

Murong Yao clenched her hands excitedly. She was very excited at the moment because she had long wanted to watch the game between scribes.

As for the price of the bet? She had not considered it at all, or in other words, she was very confident in Xu Que. Although she often asked Xu Que where this confidence came from, Xu Que never gave an answer, so she no longer Study these issues.

"Okay, since you dare to speak wild words, let's start with poetry!" Guo Yunkai said first.

"Okay, then all ten of you will come together." Xu Que shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

"What did you say? You want to challenge ten of us at once?" Yang Fengyu asked in shock.

"Of course, if you want to bet, then bet bigger!" Xu Que replied with a smile.

"If one of us beats you and you beat us, how does this count?" Wen Li stood up and asked.

"As long as you are a literary person, you can bet, and the conditions are very simple. If I lose one game in the literary bet, it counts as a loss. If I win them all, then your lives belong to me. That’s it!” Xu Que explained with a smile.

"Crazy, really too crazy, Xu Que, don't think you are famous, but do you know who you are facing?" Li Man was furious.

"Okay, isn't it just ten barking dogs? Come on, let's get started!"

Seeing Xu Que's impatient expression, Shi Xiu's anger was instantly aroused.

"Chang Shi, please testify for us about the bet. Anyone who cheats or plagiarizes will be the loser!" Yang Fengyu said.

"Okay, I have agreed, so you all can take the oath!" Chang Shi said.

With the eleven members of Xu Que taking the oath of civility at the same time, this huge gamble among literati began!

Chang Shi walked slowly to the middle, waving his light sleeve with his right hand, and the seats next to him instantly formed a square shape.

Eleven people from Xu Que stood in front of the chair and took out precious pens, gold paper, and gold ink to show that they were ready.

Chang Shi glanced at everyone, then looked at the bright moon outside and said: "Since Guo Yunkai wants to start with poetry and Taoism, let's use moonlight as the title."

When Shixiu heard that Moonlight was the title, they all showed joy, because they had often discussed this kind of poem together.

"Although I am the one who wrote the question, for the sake of fairness, you have to write it on gold paper so that the saints can judge clearly!" Chang Shi continued.

"How about it? Can it be done?" Murong Yao asked in a low voice.

"No problem!" Xu Que made an OK gesture.

Murong Yao asked curiously: "Does this mean there is no problem?"

"Well, it's my new research. I'll teach you another day!" Xu Que said openly.

As for plagiarism, haha, he has already gone deep into the quagmire, does he still care about this?
