Cai Yong looked at Li Zhi's painting and was somewhat silent. He could not judge the quality of the painting.

It's not that his skills are not high, but that this painting is completely different from what he has learned, so how does he evaluate it?

"Three of you, look at this painting"

Cai Yong handed the painting to the other three judges and rubbed his brows.

"hiss……"

Yang Qiu and the other three were also amazed, but Song Zhong, like Cai Yong, was surprised at first and then frowned.

"Although this painting is eye-catching and quite real, but..."

At this point, Song Zhong frowned, stared at the painting, and shook his head.

"This painting is lifeless, has no charm, and cannot be considered elegant."

"This is wrong..."

Lu Zhi, on the other hand, complained about Li Zhi’s paintings.

"Although this painting has no charm, it is more realistic than anything else."

Speaking of this, Lu Zhi’s eyes lit up

"If Ling Xing's wise nephew can draw a map of the world, he will be of great use to the country!"

After Lu Zhi said this, Yang Qiu's eyes also lit up.

"Brother Zigan, these words are very kind!"

"Somehow I didn't expect this..."

At this point, Yang Qiu stood up excitedly and walked back and forth on the stage, saying as he walked

"If we can use this painting technique to draw a map of the world, then we can govern the world while sitting at home!"

Then he excitedly praised: "This painting technique is of great use to the country. It should be the first one today!"

After hearing what Yang Qiu said, Song Zhong disagreed.

"This painting may be useful to the country, but we are here today to take a painting exam, not whether it is useful or useless."

"Although this painting technique is quite novel, it has no charm and cannot be ranked first."

"Brother Zizhong is too pedantic. This painting..."

The three of them started arguing on the stage over Li Zhi's painting, and for a while no one could convince the other.

Only Cai Yong frowned tightly and looked at other people's paintings.

Seeing the argument between the three people on the stage and Cai Yong's frown, everyone below looked at each other in confusion.

Everyone was a little uneasy. They didn't know whose work was out of order, causing the three selections to argue so much.

"call……"

Cai Yong took a long breath at this time, put down the last piece of work, and rubbed his forehead, but it was a bit difficult to make a decision.

Except for Li Zhi's works, he had already made up his mind about the others.

Among these paintings, apart from Li Zhi's works, one named Chen Ying and Chen Bowen are the most vivid.

Without Li Zhi, this matter would have been easy to handle. He could just be designated as the master of painting. However, there were more works by Li Zhi, which made it a little difficult for him to handle.

At this time, he looked at the three people arguing on the stage and the restless people below the stage, and made a decision in his heart.

"Three worthy brothers, please don't argue anymore. We will not make the selection this time."

"We can hand over the paintings of Xing Zhizhi's nephew to the people together with the paintings of this person, and let them judge for themselves.

select."

Cai Yong held Chen Ying's painting and said to the three people who were arguing.

"Great Good"

“That’s it”

After hearing this, the three of them thought for a while and felt that they could not achieve anything by arguing, so they agreed to Cai Yong's proposal.

Seeing that the three of them agreed, Cai Yong stood up, took two paintings, walked to the stage, and spoke to everyone in the audience.

"Dear nephews, please listen to what I have to say."

"Now there are two paintings, but it is difficult to tell them apart. I and others are also arguing about them."

"Now I hand over the power of selection to all the painters to show fairness."

"Dear nephews, if you think which painting is the best, just write the word "good" on the white paper next to this painting."

As soon as Cai Yong finished speaking, there was a bustle below, and the sound of low-pitched discussions could be heard.

When Li Zhi heard this, he gave Guo De a different look.

Guo De understood what he meant and walked towards Cai Yong.

After Guo De took the two paintings off the stage, placed them on a table in front of the stage, placed two pieces of white paper on both sides of the paintings, nodded to Cai Yong, and then left.

"Dear nephews, let's start the selection."

Seeing that everything was ready, Cai Yong said to the people in the audience.

"please……"

"please……"

Everyone was polite to each other and walked towards the painting.

Following the others to the painting, Li Zhi saw his painting at a glance. Although he had expected it, he was still a little excited when the expectation became reality.

"hiss……"

Everyone took a breath of air when they saw Li Zhi's painting, but they were shocked by the reality in it.

At this time, Guo Jia, who was watching the excitement on the side, looked at Li Zhizhi with admiration.

"I don't want my brother to have such a unique skill. After this incident, please teach me."

After speaking, without waiting for Li Zhi to answer, Guo Jia looked straight at Li Zhi's paintings, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Um"

Li Zhi didn't say anything more, he just responded and looked at the people who were making the selection.

At this point everyone has almost made their selections.

At this time, Cai Yong slowly walked down from the stage, looked at the two paintings that had been selected, and then read the words "kind" written on both sides.

After taking him to count, he nodded, walked to the stage, came to the stage, walked to the front of the stage, and announced the results to the people in the audience.

"Dear nephews, the person in today's painting is..."

Having said this, I looked at Li Zhi in the audience.

"Li knows Li Xing's wise nephew!"

"Congratulations, brother" "Congratulations, brother"

Everyone congratulated Li Zhi. At this moment, a person jumped out from the crowd and shouted loudly.

"This is unfair! I don't accept it! You must be colluding to deceive us!"

But he saw this man wearing a brocade robe, with a thin body and some dark circles on his face. At this time, his face was narrow and red due to excitement.

"Who are you?"

When Cai Yong heard this, his expression changed and he asked the man.

"This is Chen Ying and Chen Bowen!"

Chen Ying only looked straight at Cai Yong without saluting, and replied

Cai Yong nodded when he heard this. He didn't have the same experience as him and asked.

"Why do you disagree with the results of this selection?"

"Then I have also seen Li Zhi's paintings. They are rigid and have no charm. How can they be compared to Li Zhi's paintings?!"

Speaking of this, Chen Ying looked at Cai Yong with contempt in his eyes.

Cai Yong's face looked a little ugly at this time, and he said to him

"The results of this selection are determined by you. A total of thirty-three of you participated in the competition."

"Except for you and two others, the remaining thirty-one people will participate in the selection."

"Xing Zhizhi's painting has twenty-two good words, but your painting has only nine people saying it is good. You are satisfied with my explanation."

When Cai Yong said this, the anger on his face was gone, and he just looked at him calmly.

At this time, Chen Ying didn't believe what Cai Yong said and said reluctantly.

"After you finish your review, you immediately put away the paper with the good words written on it."
