Chapter 319: Clever Coordination

The participating contestants each had a private pavilion for viewing, which could be considered a bit of a privilege.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing sat inside the pavilion; it had an excellent view, allowing them to see the entire scene below.

This also made it convenient for the two to exchange thoughts and discuss things.

Su Yu took out some tea sets and arranged them on the table.

Seeing this, Ling Wanqing reached out to help, "Let me do it this time; I also know a thing or two about tea art."

Su Yu did not refuse.

Ling Wanqing began to brew the tea, using tea leaves she had brought out herself.

Su Yu looked at the spirit tea leaves Ling Wanqing had brought out; they were relatively good, even better than the ones he had taken out before.

Ling Wanqing started brewing the tea, and the two waited while watching the competition below.

Soon, the clear fragrance of tea wafted through the air, and Ling Wanqing poured a cup for Su Yu.

Su Yu looked at the tea before him, picked it up, and took a sip, "Miss Ling, your skills are quite good."

After taking a sip of the brewed tea, Ling Wanqing said, "I usually study this when I have nothing else to do. I often drink tea after playing."

The two drank tea while listening to the zither music drifting up from below.

The competition below had already begun, and the performances of the two groups were nearing their end.

The zither playing of both groups was pleasant to hear, but it was still too ordinary. Their Musical Talent was just for show, to join in the excitement.

If they were lucky, they could experience more; if they were unlucky, they would be eliminated in the first round.

But to those who didn't understand, they still had some skill.

The competition continued, and people were constantly being eliminated.

Most of the audience listened with great interest, but as time passed, the number of spectators began to dwindle.

Most of them headed to watch the famous contestants, where the atmosphere was much livelier.

Su Yu watched the scene below; it wouldn't be long before he and Ling Wanqing had to go on stage.

The overall skill level on their side this time was relatively low, which could also be said that Su Yu was quite lucky this time.

As the competition below continued, it would soon be Su Yu and Ling Wanqing's turn.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing left the pavilion and arrived at the back of the competition area to wait for the preceding matches to finish.

Standing there, both of them felt completely calm.

Following the conclusion of the previous match, the names of Su Yu and Ling Wanqing were called out.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing walked slowly onto the zither stage.

Their opponents, however, appeared slightly nervous. Su Yu's opponent looked at the surrounding audience and the two opponents before him.

Taking a deep breath, he stepped onto the zither stage. The arrival of both sides caused many people to cheer excitedly.

There were even quite a few people shouting their names; the atmosphere was quite lively.

The person hosting this Qin Gathering briefly introduced the information of Su Yu and the others, and the competition was about to begin.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing arrived on the zither stage, and both took out their zithers.

The competition pieces were basically random, but Su Yu had some understanding of all the pieces in the Southern Region. If he were to casually bring out any of the famous pieces from his past life, they would be timeless classics.

Ling Wanqing's situation was much the same; she had encountered the vast majority of pieces in the Southern Region.

This was also a point of worry and nervousness for most people participating in the Qin Gathering; it would be best if they encountered a familiar piece.

If it were a piece they had never played before, it would be a bit troublesome. Although the zither score would appear on the side, and with their strength, they would basically memorize it at a glance, it was difficult to perform well on the first try.

The key was that you didn't know if your opponent had played this piece before. This brought a bit of uncertainty to the competition, but it could also stimulate some people's potential at critical moments.

After the person hosting this Qin Gathering announced the name of the piece for this match.

Su Yu's two opponents finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were quite familiar with this piece; it seemed luck was on their side.

Su Yu looked at the piece. This piece? It didn't matter; they were all the same.

Ling Wanqing felt the same way.

The other two observed Su Yu and Ling Wanqing's reaction; it looked like these two had played it before as well.

Let's see which side is better.

Accompanied by the fluctuations of the zither music, the competition officially began. The surroundings instantly quieted down, listening to the zither music that drifted out.

Both Su Yu and Ling Wanqing plucked their zither strings as they pleased.

The beautiful zither music kept the people around them immersed in an ocean of music.

Su Yu and his partner's level could be said to be among the better part of this group.

The zither music from both sides constantly clashed, making it difficult for a moment to judge which side was better.

Most of the previous matches could be distinguished immediately.

Su Yu watched this scene, not in a rush to do anything; both sides had begun to immerse themselves in their own Musical Talent.

Su Yu saw that it was about time; he had to exert a little more effort.

Ling Wanqing instantly sensed Su Yu's movement and immediately coordinated with him.

Their actions had not a single flaw, as if it were only natural.

This competition was clearly won by Su Yu's side.

As the piece ended.

The person hosting the Qin Gathering announced that the victory in this competition belonged to Su Yu and Ling Wanqing.

Su Yu's opponents left the stage dejectedly. Although they felt a bit unwilling, the reality was that their strength was indeed a bit inferior to the others.

At that final moment, he realized the gap between himself and those two.

He did not dare to take risks to try new things, but those two were different. The man was very decisive; in order to surpass them, he immediately decided to try something new.

The woman was the same; at the very moment the man changed, she did not hesitate at all.

This was the difference between them; it really taught them a lesson.

He would have to do the same in the future; perhaps then he could make further progress.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing's first round ended.

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "I didn't expect the opponent in the first round to be so formidable. I don't know what it will be like later."

Ling Wanqing nodded, "It was indeed so this time. When investigating the information, we knew the opponents weren't simple, but fortunately, we still won in the end."

Neither of them mentioned the final performance.

Su Yu looked at Ling Wanqing, "Let's go. Let's go see Ke Qiao; his match should be ending soon too."

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing arrived at the place where Ke Qiao was competing. Su Yu saw that they hadn't gone on stage yet; it seemed they had arrived just in time.

Ke Qiao noticed the arrival of Su Yu and Ling Wanqing.

Seeing Su Yu nod at him, Ke Qiao knew that the two had won the match.

As expected of you two; we have to work hard too.

The arrival of Su Yu and Ling Wanqing also added a sense of confidence to Ke Qiao and his partner.

It was Ke Qiao's turn for the competition to begin, and the result of this match was just as Su Yu and the others had expected.

Ke Qiao and his partner were more skilled, and the two won the match.

Ling Wanqing watched this scene and then glanced at Su Yu beside her; this kind of life was also quite nice.
