But the result.

Zou Yu chose East Art instead.

Qin Art, as the top institution in Qin Continent, lost a significant amount of face then. Now, Zou Yu’s composing skills have surprisingly reached such heights!

If Zhang Wenwu was just here to flaunt their school’s excellent works, Shi Cheng wouldn’t feel too upset.

But the fact that the composition was Zou Yu’s, made Shi Cheng profoundly disturbed.

How did Qjn Art miss out on such an outstanding student?

Zhang Wenwu, clearly satisfied with Shi Cheng’s reaction, teased, “Qin Art is full of talent. I believe there must be students even better than Zou Yu. I’m looking forward to it!

Looking forward to your sister!

Zou Yu’s a demon!

Who in our school can rival him?

Shi Cheng knows his composition students well. He was painfully aware that Qin Art currently had no students superior to Zou Yu—

At least not now.

Perhaps when the students mature, someone could challenge Zou Yu. After all, not all geniuses shine at university.

At that moment.

Shi Cheng’s assistant sent over a piece: “This is a work by Yan Mengjia from class five, the best rated one by the mentors so far.

Zhang Wenwu asked, “Can I take a listen?”

Shi Cheng had no choice but to share the composition for everyone to listen.

After hearing it, Zhang Wenwu nodded, “Not bad!”

It’s indeed good!

Yan Mengjia, being a sophomore in the composition department, was among the front-runners. This song of hers was remarkable and could even be released!

But clearly.

Compared to Zou Yu’s song, there was still a considerable gap. Hence, Zhang Wenwu’s praise did not please Shi Cheng but instead felt like a stab to his chest.

“Any more?”

There was a hint of frustration in Shi Cheng’s voice.

The assistant nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation, and promptly left with a serious expression, aware that Professor Shi was agitated.

Soon.

Several other songs were presented, all of them excellent compositions. Zhang Wenwu affirmed each piece, but they all fell short—

Nothing compared to Zou Yu!

The mighty Qin Art’s sophomore composition department was being overshadowed by an individual from East Art, Zou Yu.

“Hey.”

After several rounds of praise, Zhang Wenwu sighed, “Professor Shi, why hide your best work? I’ll admit, the songs I just heard were good, but I believe a top institution like Qin Art must have even better pieces.”

Can you give some face?

Let’s keep it civil for future relations!

Shi Cheng rolled his eyes in frustration. If I can’t present a better piece than Zou Yu today, does that mean I’ll have to concede that Qin Art’s composition level is indeed inferior to East Art?

“Exactly.”

The professors from East Art who came with Zhang Wenwu spoke up: “These songs are decent but clearly fall short of Zou Yu’s standards.”

“I can’t believe this is the best Qjn Art has.”

“They must be hiding their best work.”

“Professor Shi, show us what you have.”

“The educational resources Qin Art receives annually are more than double ours at East Art. Compared to them, we struggle at East Art. We only have a few piano rooms, and students have to queue up to use public facilities.”

Shi Cheng could only call out to his assistant: “Ask them to hurry with their review. Retrieve more songs. Our friends from East Art are waiting.” “Understood.”

The assistant briskly left the room.

The tutors in-charge of reviewing the students’ work seemed to have understood Shi Cheng’s predicament. East Art seemed to come here for a challenge!

Qin Art can’t lose!

On the surface, it appears to be a matter of reputation.

But East Art wouldn’t have come all this way just to show off.

If East Art goes back and publicizes how their composition department surpasses Qin Art’s, what would be the implications?

We must retaliate.

But the problem is, the piece that East Art has brought is strong. The songs that have just been submitted seem to be lacking in some way.

More than half have been reviewed.

Are there powerful counterworks in the remaining half?

The composition department tutors have no idea.

“By the way.”

Zhang Wenwu smiled at Shi Cheng, “This song by Zou Yu may get released after not too long. The performer has been decided; they say it’s Chen Zhiyu, a top singer from Dazzling Silver Glow!”

Shi Cheng forced a smile, “Congratulations.”

Clearly, if it managed to attract a top singer like Chen Zhiyu, Zou Yu’s song was outstanding.

Zhang Wenwu shrugged, “Chen Zhiyu has been searching for suitable songs, but unfortunately, none had met his expectations. After hearing Zou Yu’s song, he decided on it immediately. This surprised us; Chen Zhiyu, a top-tier singer, rarely chooses works by newcomers…”

Show off—what a show-off.

Shi Cheng felt uneasy in the sofa he sat on and adjusted his position a few times but remained uncomfortable. He concluded it was probably because of Zhang Wenwu sitting next to him.

At that moment.

There was a commotion in the distance.

Already annoyed, Shi Cheng got more annoyed hearing the commotion. He immediately stood up, “What kind of image are we projecting? Do we want to make a joke of ourselves in front of our guests?”

Professor Shi’s words are full of innuendoes.

Zhang Wenwu caught on, but instead of getting angry, he dismissively waved, “No harm done. Don’t be mad.”

“Over there, they’re discussing a new piece.”

The assistant ran over and whispered an explanation.

Zhang Wenwu heard and raised an eyebrow, “Finally, another song. I thought, how could such a large composition department as Qin Art not produce a single superior piece?”
