The people below the stage were montarily stunned by her shocking words.
Oh my god, that’s so big talk.
The violin is currently the most popular Western instrunt, with countless parents spending fortunes to have their children learn it and take exams.
Yet this girl expressed such disdain.
Too immature? Too childish, dismissing the violin for being invented only a few hundred years ago?
Oh my god, where does she get the audacity? Isn’t that disrespectful to Western instrunts?
The audience ca to their senses, erupting in boos, almost drowning out the earlier awe inspired by the music.
Xi Yuanshan sneered repeatedly, "What did I say? We shouldn’t have let her co! Making a fool of herself and spouting nonsense!"
Fang Yui coquettishly echoed Xi Yuanshan, "This Xi Zuzi really speaks crudely and is unpresentable. Zhuzhu’s mom, your judgnt is questionable, letting a poor relative embarrass your daughter. Did you even bring your brain today?"
Gu Qiusha: "...!"
Her anger almost tore apart the duo harmonizing their insults.
The woman outside having a filthy mouth is one thing, but her own husband adding insult to injury?
My Zuzi is not at all like you say!
Just as she was about to retort.
Behind her, Dean Huangfu suddenly stood up in excitent, his voice booming, "The girl isn’t wrong — the violin is too immature compared to our Empire’s ancient instrunts, and not worth ntioning!"
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
The crowd’s shock was unparalleled.
Who is Dean Huangfu? He is the dean of the Imperial Music College, the very founder of the Imperial Violin Examination Association, and yet he denies his own violin enterprise?
This can’t be real, can it?
But in the next second, Dean Huangfu, with a trembling voice, said, "Today, Western music is dominant, and I’ve been powerless to revive ancient instrunts. Today, listening to Zuzi’s performance has been an enlightening revelation, solidifying my resolve. From now on, the Violin Examination Association has nothing to do with . I will re-establish the Ancient Music Departnt!"
The crowd was absorbed in shock, unable to extricate themselves.
What exactly did Xi Zuzi play to make a violin master break down and abandon half a lifeti of his career on the spot?
"It’s the Konghou, the zither Xi Zuzi played is the Empire National Museum’s collection instrunt, the Snow Phoenix Zither," declared Dean Huangfu slowly.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
A national treasure instrunt?!
No wonder no one had seen it before. No wonder Xi Zuzi said earlier that Xi Ruzhu’s violin worth tens of thousands was just trash.
It’s not that violins are entirely bad, just that, compared to the Empire’s ancient national treasures, they are truly... insignificant!
Fang Yui still wanted to mock Gu Qiusha a little more, saying she couldn’t even teach her daughter or manage her poor relatives.
At this mont, before she could speak, her face was taphorically slapped!
Xi Ruzhu stood dumbfounded on the stage, stunned by the sudden blow.
How is it possible...
How could that bumpkin Xi Zuzi know how to play the Konghou, sothing she’s only seen in musical docunts, let alone the Snow Phoenix Zither?
It must be a coincidence.
It must be that Xi Zuzi painstakingly orchestrated this, finding soone to make a fake one and hurriedly learning a piece or two; after all, no one has seen or heard the Snow Phoenix Zither.
No one can tell if it’s played well or not.
With this thought, she couldn’t wait to speak, "Zuzi, since your Konghou... is so rare, why not play a few more pieces for us?"
She expected Xi Zuzi to decline, to show timidity.
Who knew.
Xi Zuzi glanced coolly at the people below the stage, where Gu Qiusha bore the burden of abuse, nervous and worried sick, yet still looked gentle and kind.
Her eyes flickered, and she smiled slightly, "Very well. Let show you sothing remarkable."
In a brief mont.
She surprisingly switched to another instrunt no one had seen before.
The deep black color was highlighted with small exquisite black tubes encircling it, with a Phoenix Tail Whistle protruding, lending it a certain elegance and tranquility, more ditative compared to the Snow Phoenix Zither.
Xi Zuzi had just played the first note.
Dean Huangfu again stood up excitedly:
"The Black Jade Flute! Could this be the one recorded in ancient texts, Nuwa’s instrunt?"
