Chapter 462: 440: The Struggle of Qin Yan_1
This excitement initially started because of the news on the latest creation from the veteran and creator of the Three Little Pigs series, Teacher Yuanyuan.
However, what truly stirred up the fairy tale circle again was a literary duel!
Indeed.
Three days after Teacher Yuanyuan announced the imminent release of her new work, Teacher Yuanyuan accepted a literary duel initiated by a Yancontinent person—
The initiator of the literary duel is Hu, a renowned long fairy tale writer from Yan Province!
Who is Hu?
Let’s put it this way:
If Teacher Yuanyuan’s Three Little Pigs is the childhood of many Blue Starian, then Hu’s fairy tale, the Little Carp Adventure, is the childhood of many Yan Province locals…
Based on their status in the fairy tale circles of their respective continents, Hu and Yuanyuan are on par!
Interestingly…
Teacher Hu’s new work is also published through Silver Blue Books, the title of the work is Little Kitty Adventure!
Why is it interesting?
Because this is too coincidental!
The title of Teacher Yuanyuan’s work happens to be Meow Star!
The two renowned fairy tales writers from different continents, surprisingly chose “cats” as the protagonist for their new long fairy tales, even choosing the same publishing platform!
So, the sparks started to fly!
“It’s like Mars colliding with the Blue Star.”
Some people described the magnitude of this literary duel in this manner.
Others jokingly said:
“The short fairy tales of Yan people were butchered by Chu Kuang, so they simply stopped competing in short stories and are competing in long ones now…”
Short fairy tales have become unplayable.
Chu Chuang single-handedly defeating nine contenders, becoming a legend with his work Fairy Tale Town winning the title of “King of Short Fairy Tales”, this feud is equivalent to a total defeat for the Yan People in the field of short fairy tales!
So…
Recently in the Yan Continent’s fairy tale circle, no short fairy tale writer has initiated any literary duels with other states.
Because there’s no point.
The intensity of Chu Kuang’s epic fight against the nine top contenders has seen everyone’s fair share.
Any short fairy tale literary duel by Yan People will inevitably be compared with Chu Kuang’s Fairy Tale Town, then there will be an immediate sense of blandness—
Without Chu Kuang’s duel, it’s just chickens pecking each other.
Some people even think that the reason why Teacher Hu initiated a literary duel with Teacher Yuanyuan was to initiate a revenge on behalf of Yan Continent’s fairy tale circle against the Qin Continent’s fairy tale circle!
In short fairy tales, we Yan people admit defeat.
Chu Kuang’s short fairy tales are too invincible.
But in long fairy tales, we Yan people are not afraid!
“Yan people will never be slaves!”
Since Teacher Yuanyuan and Chu Kuang are both fairy tale writers from the Qin Continent, it gives all the more reason for hypothesis among peers.
However, some people think that this literary duel does not necessarily equate to a revenge by Yan People.
“Even if Hu wins the literary duel, it is at most a moment of glory for the Yan Continent’s fairy tale circle, unless Hu can follow in the footsteps of Chu Kuang, single-handedly overwhelming several same-level long fairy tale writers…”
This is impossible.
Creating a long fairy tale and creating a short fairy tale are not the same concept.
The former runs into millions of words, while the latter is just a few thousand words.
So Chu Kuang’s shocking victory over nine contenders, pinning several Yan Continent elites to the ground, is destined to be forever remembered in the fairy tale circle!
“Moreover, it’s not yet certain who will lose and who will win.”
Because of Chu Kuang, there is a hint of regional competition between Qin and Yan.
Under such circumstances, Qin Continent’s fairy tale writers will definitely support Teacher Yuanyuan.
Just like the Yan Continent’s fairy tale circle, they also pinned their hopes on Teacher Hu.
On both sides, it’s like a challenge match.
The Qin people are in charge of cheering for Teacher Yuanyuan, while the Yan people are in charge of cheering for Teacher Hu.
After all, both of them are among the leaders who are eligible to represent the long fairy tales of their respective continents.
Netizens on both sides have also turned on their debate mode.
“You have Chu Kuang, and we have no chance in short stories, but our long fairy tales on Yan Continent are not bad!”
“If you have read Little Carp Adventure, you will know how powerful Teacher Hu is!”
“Victory to the Yan People!”
“Teacher Hu is a sure win.”
“Since making his debut in Yan Continent, Teacher Hu’s record has been eight wins and no loss, do you realise what that implies?”
“He’s a born literary duel master!”
“…”
The Yan people began to make a commotion.
The Qin people naturally refused to back down:
“Why don’t you take a look at the Qin people’s ‘Three Little Pigs’?”
“Chu Kuang has bashed your short stories to the ground, do you think your novels can turn the tables?”
“Teacher Yuanyuan is the next old rascal… uh, no, Chu Kuang in the realm of Qin Continent’s long fairy tales!”
“The Yan people like to be defiant; if they still refuse to admit defeat, let’s continue the fight!”
“Teacher Chu Kuang is the first stick, Teacher Yuanyuan is the second stick. Their two sticks are enough to beat all of you in the fairy tale circle!”
“Chu Kuang: Blue Star tolerates no one crazier than me!”
“Chu Kuang: Yuanyuan, you can hit them as you like, this crowd has been dizzied by me.”
“…”
The Yan people were so angry they were stomping their foot.
These Qin people just knew how to tout Chu Kuang!
We’re discussing long fairy tales here!
Chu Kuang writes short fairy tales!
The netizens from Qi and Chu regions, however, were excited spectators, possessing the enlightenment of ready spectators.
Some Chu people could actually understand the feelings of the Yan people.
Their music and comics have been successively beaten by Chu Kuang’s two best bros…
Someone had even summarized:
These Three Bros are a perfect combination of inner sages and outward kings!
They are fierce as tigers in internal battle!
And appear magical in external battles!
Like Xian Yu.
While fighting local people, at least he normally puts out songs. When fighting Chu people, he straightaway tossed out ‘Mariage d’Amour’!
Another example is Shadow.
While fighting local people, he lazily draws a few strokes and even makes explicit content in his comics. But when he fought Chu people, he directly threw out the incredibly drawn ‘Death Note’!
Didn’t Chu Kuang recently do the same thing?
Fighting his own people, the ‘Snow White’ sufficed.
But fighting Yan people, he unabashedly brought out nine Snow Whites, pressing down everything with ‘Fairytale Town’!
At this moment, inside the Silver Blue Books, the Fairy Tale Department.
There was a standoff between Zhang Yang and Shui Zhourou.
Because Teacher Hu was invited by Zhang Yang!
Therefore…
Whatever the outsiders said about Teacher Hu also choosing to release his new work in the Silver Blue Books as a challenge to Teacher Yuan Yuan was not quite right, as it was Zhang Yang who plotted this for the competition of the chief editor position in the Fairy Tale Department of Silver Blue Books.
Zhang Yang had to bring Teacher Hu into this fray to compete with Shui Zhourou on performance.
However, Teacher Hu, while being wronged, was also not completely innocent.
Because he indeed had the intention to avenge for the Yan People’s fairy tale circle!
You, Chu Kuang, undermined the short fairy tale circle of Yan by breaking its symbol, the tales, as a strong man of Yan, I, Hu, must slap the face of the long fairy tale circle of Qin!
That’s how tough the Yan people are!
Being a Yan person, Hu felt such a sense of responsibility.
In the midst of such a battle atmosphere, the ultimate literary duel eventually began.
That was one week later, in the morning.
New books from Hu and Yuan Yuan were placed on the shelves of bookstores one after another.
It took three days before the result became clear.
According to the rules of the literary duel, a comprehensive evaluation was made from various aspects such as sales and reputation of the work…
Teacher Hu, won!
