The Daughter of the Enchanted in the Modern Age

Chapter 101

The difference in how much the same tone can be played is how precise the person playing the zither is in controlling the strings.

A high-pitched sound in a melody is actually better than a low tone. When low notes are played, they need to be pressed. When the pressure is pressed to a certain extent, the zither sound will become very quiet and without fluctuations.

Therefore, for many people who know zither, seeing one's skills is equivalent to listening to their ability to control low tones.

What Guo Tian had just played was an extremely famous ancient zither song - the last part of the Magpie Bridge Immortal.

The difficulty of playing this Magpie Bridge Immortal was considered average in the ancient zither melody. Guo Tian had never taken Xia Wanyuan seriously, so he casually played a non-hard song. After all, defeating Xia Wanyuan was too easy.

After playing the role, Guo Tian, who was casually waiting for Xia Wanyuan to embarrass himself, gradually became stiff ever since Xia Wanyuan played the first note.

An extremely low voice rang out from Xia Wanyuan's fingertips. Although it was very gentle, it made one's heart tremble.

Most of the spectators present were not people who knew the ancient zither, but they could actually hear a hint of pressure from this light sound.

The first paragraph illustrates how the Heavenly Court sensed the personal descendants of fairies to the mortal world and sent an army to the mortal world to capture fairies.

Xia Wanyuan played it softly, and one after another fine melodies were released.

It was clearly the same song as Guo Tian, but Xia Wanyuan could bring everyone into the real scene.

As the zither tone became increasingly dense, mixed with the chaotic sounds of wind and rain, everyone seemed to see thunder rolling in the sky and surging clouds.

Xia Wanyuan suppressed the zither sound to an extremely low volume. The entire Imperial Capital Theatre was shrouded in extremely low pressure, making it difficult for one to breathe.

Slowly, the zither voice began to rise. Lightning and rain mixed, and the world began to tear apart. It was as if one could see the two bitter lovers being forcibly separated by the heavenly warriors.

Her lover was so close, but it was as if he was far away.

Xia Wanyuan's hand moved quickly as she plucked the zither. The silver vase broke and the thunder roared.

His lover was escorted away, leaving only one person on the ground. As she looked at the storm that filled the sky, overwhelming grief spread from Xia Wanyuan's hands, gradually infecting everyone in the theater.

Those sad and painful emotions wrapped around the zither melody and entered his heart.

Although the audience does not know much about the zither music, they do have the ability to feel emotions.

Guo Tian's lyre music sounded beautiful, but to ordinary people who didn't know the ancient lute, they didn't understand the meaning behind it.

But Xia Wanyuan's zither music really poured her emotions into the zither voice, opening up an incredible epic tragedy in everyone's hearts.

After a while, someone in the theater clapped.

Gradually, more and more people applauded. Everyone was touched by the emotions in the Magpie Bridge Immortal. A minute later, the applause slowly subsided.

Guo Tian looked at Xia Wanyuan in disbelief. How is this possible?!! Even the most eminent master might not be able to turn emotions into sounds. How could a little girl like Xia Wanyuan achieve it?!

Not only him, but the others in the Guqin Association were also shocked, especially the president of the association. His eyes shone as he looked at Xia Wanyuan excitedly, as if he had seen the hope of tomorrow.

"Continue, Mr. Guo. There's still the last part." Guo Tian had been stunned for too long, so Xia Wanyuan couldn't help but remind him.

Those comments were also stupefied.

[Is this real? ]

[Then, am I the one who doesn't know how to appreciate it? Why do I feel that Xia Wanyuan is playing it better? ]

[Bring me, the one in front. I think Xia Wanyuan's performance is more contagious. ]

[Master Guo might underestimate the enemy? I don't expect Xia Wanyuan to really have some skills. However, I still think highly of Master Guo. Mr. Guo definitely didn't play seriously just now. ]

On the stage, Guo Tian looked at Xia Wanyuan, who was sitting quietly in a long dress, and suddenly felt a little guilty.

The gazes of his comrades and spectators were a bit strange. Guo Tian calmed down and became serious.

"I wasn't serious just now. Now, please follow me. " As Guo Tian spoke, he started playing the zither. Compared to before, he was indeed much more serious.

Almost at the moment Guo Tian got up, Xia Wanyuan plucked the zither and followed it.

The second half of the song is more relaxed than the first half. With the help of everyone, the Cowherd can meet the Weaver at Murai Bridge once a year with permission from heaven.

At the moment, the rhythm is relatively faster. To show off his skills, Guo Tian specifically changed his tone in many places. However, Xia Wanyuan's zither music always followed behind her and could not be released.

Even though they have the same tone and rhythm, everyone can clearly hear two different sounds.

Guo Tian's melody was very good. He is skilled and his music is smooth. As expected of a member of the National Guqin Association.

Unexpectedly, Xia Wanyuan's zither music followed Guo Tian up close. No matter how she showed off her skills or how she changed them, Xia Wanyuan's zither music did not stop.

It's smooth and natural.

As time went on, the Cowherd finally welcomed their first meeting with the Weaver. The Milky Way is their foil, and all the crows in the world flap their wings to build a long bridge for them.

At that moment, their zither sounds gradually became lighter. Guo Tian followed the melodic rhythm. The zither voice was smooth, but it did not have some sincere emotions.

As for Xia Wanyuan's zither music, it naturally made one feel relieved, grateful, happy, reluctant, emotional, and a series of other mixed emotions. It was as if everyone had become the main character, experiencing the ups and downs of his life.

She originally thought that Xia Wanyuan had faked her live stream, but from her appearance just now, Xia Wanyuan did have some abilities.

"Little Friend Xia is indeed not bad. You believe that your music is made by you. I believe the netizens believe it too." Guo Tian suppressed the emotions in his eyes and put a smile on his face. He did not mention the results at all and instead wore the posture of an elder.

"So, who won?"

Xia Wanyuan pulled her hand from the zither strings and looked at Guo Tian coldly. His cold gaze made Guo Tian's heart turn cold.

"For little friend Xia to be able to follow my steps means that you have actual abilities. For a young kid to reach your level is really not bad. Let the competition be considered a draw. I was also considered an old man in the ancient zither world. If I continue to compete, wouldn't others say that I don't make room for young people to develop? Ha ha."

Guo Tian looked displeased, but he held her in front of the audience and cameras on the live broadcast.

Right after hearing Xia Wanyuan's zither music, she knew that her skills were not inferior to hers. If he continued to compete, everyone would probably laugh at him.

However, he could not admit that he had lost. Back then, he said that he had used his career as a bet.

As a result, he could only consider himself to be the older generation, hoping that Xia Wanyuan would make sense and give a chance to both sides.

"I'll play first in the next round, you follow."

Xia Wanyuan completely ignored Guo Tian's gaze. His red lips slightly opened, causing Guo Tian's heart to turn cold.

[Slightly... So brave, I love her. ]

[Actually, Xia Wanyuan had proven herself capable. There was no need to chase him non-stop. Isn't this too disrespectful to your senior? ]

[People in front, what's wrong with you? It was that so-called Master Guo who insisted on fighting with Yuan Yuan to win, okay? So he was allowed to casually say that he was pretending and not to let others challenge him? ]

[Isn't Xia Wanyuan a little too arrogant? He just challenged her? Who gave him confidence? ]

In the audience, when they heard Xia Wanyuan's words, they also started to move.

The fact that Xia Wanyuan could follow Guo Tian's speed meant that he was capable. However, if Xia Wanyuan's skills were better than Guo Tian's, it would be too much.

After all, Guo Tian had been famous for a long time, while Xia Wanyuan was only 20 years old. Everyone is a bit suspicious.

Ignoring everyone's doubts, Xia Wanyuan placed her hands on the zither and looked at Guo Tian.

"Please."

Guo Tian had no choice but to sit back.

The lights in the theater were dim, leaving only two rays of light on Xia Wanyuan and Guo Tian.

An extremely high zither tone pierced through the darkness, making one's heart tremble.

After which, Xia Wanyuan's ten fingers danced as the sound of a deep and melodious battle sounded. Thousands of soldiers marched on the smoke of war.

As the battle began, the zither sound became even faster. Xia Wanyuan's hand, which was playing the zither, was no longer visible, only blurred.

At first, Guo Tian could barely keep up with Xia Wanyuan's speed. But from the moment Xia Wanyuan increased his speed, Guo Tian clearly felt that his strength was insufficient.

Xia Wanyuan's speed had changed too fast and his rhythm was too strong. Sweat appeared on Guo Tian's face as he tried his best to follow Xia Wanyuan's tone.

As a result, although his melody could barely keep up, his aura did not follow at all.

Xia Wanyuan's sitar melody was like a war song that urged thousands of troops on the battlefield, stirring hot blood in everyone's hearts.

On the other hand, Guo Tian's game stuttered, as if he was a defeated general who was beaten.

After the song, there is no need for words. Everyone knows who is better and who is worse.

"I hope Mr. Guo will keep your word." Xia Wanyuan smiled and stood up to leave.

The president of the Guqin Association had enjoyed the zither sound. By the time she reacted, Xia Wanyuan had already left.

On the stage, Guo Tianzheng looked at Xia Wanyuan's back angrily and awkwardly.

President Cai Qin walked onto the stage and bowed to the audience.

"Thank you for your support. Since the members of the association have approved the bet, we have to keep our promise. From now on, Guo Tian will be expelled from the Ancient Sitar Association."

After hearing Cai Qin's words, Guo Tian suddenly raised his head. Fire flickered in his eyes, but he himself said those words. There was no point in saying anything now, so he could only leave the scene dejectedly.

Initially, the outcome of this match was undoubtedly in everyone's eyes.

Therefore, when the topic of "Xia Wanyuan, Guo Tian, PK zither skills" appeared on the trending topic, everyone calmed down.

It is clear who wins and who loses.
