Urban God-level Youth

Qin Hao returned to school and had just gotten out of the car when he saw Xu Siyao driving into the parking lot.

After she got out of the car, she walked over to Qin Hao. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire

Qin Hao looked at her and smiled, "Why aren't you staying at home?"

Xu Siyao with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry, Qin Hao, I didn't know my dad would say those things to you."

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's okay. I was a bit angry at first, but I understand Mr. Xu's intentions, so you don't need to blame yourself too much.

Being as gentle and beautiful as you are, and the fact that Mr. Xu thinks highly of me, I'm quite happy about it."

Xu Siyao, upon hearing him say that, blushed slightly and felt a bit happy inside, "Do you really think so?"

Qin Hao nodded his head, "A man, after all, always dreams of having a harem."

"Do you often dream about it too?" Xu Siyao was more relaxed than before and asked with a smile.

Qin Hao gave an embarrassed smile, "Occasionally."

Xu Siyao, "There's an activity in the painting club today, let's go together. You've joined the club but haven't really been there much, the president even wants to kick you out."

Qin Hao, "Okay, sure, I've been quite busy lately and haven't had time to go."

Xu Siyao nodded her head, "I know you've been busy, so I spoke to the president about it, that's why he hasn't kicked you out yet."

Qin Hao, "I think it might be better to just kick me out, I don't have much time to go anyway."

"I was the one who introduced you to the club, it would be really embarrassing for me if you got kicked out."

As they talked, they arrived at the school's club office building.

This building was almost entirely occupied by various clubs as well as the offices of the student council and the Communist Youth League members.

Even though it was the weekend, there were still many people around. Weekends are generally when all the clubs hold their events, so it was crowded.

As they entered the building, they could see quite a few guys standing in the hallway looking into a classroom.

Xu Siyao explained, "That classroom is for a dance club; they're all tall and beautiful women."

Qin Hao nodded his head, no wonder there were so many guys gathered to watch; they were admiring the beauties.

They went up the stairs to the fourth floor, which housed several painting clubs and other types of clubs.

Qin Hao had been here once when he first joined the club.

Entering the classroom, it was crowded with many people.

These people were clearly divided into two groups, on one side were members of the Seven-colored Painting Club, and on the other side were members of the Skillful Hands Club.

Today, the two painting clubs had an exchange activity, and a few teachers from the art department were there as judges.

Qin Hao and Xu Siyao went over to the side of the Seven-colored Painting Club.

Fan Ruobing glanced at Qin Hao and Xu Siyao, then turned her head and spoke, "Okay, that's settled."

There were both men and women in the Skillful Hands Club opposite them, and it was obvious that there were relatively more males.

As for the Seven-colored Painting Club, there were many women, and Qin Hao was the only male.

A guy from the opposite side stepped forward, named Wang Baishi, with handsome features and slim, fair fingers.

He looked at Fan Ruobing and said, "Mr. Fan, let's have a contest."

Fan Ruobing was as her name suggested, her face cold as ice, giving off a very unapproachable vibe.

The two of them stepped forward, then drew a slip of paper from the judges, with the requirement: plant subjects for the paintings, free-style, time limit of half an hour.

Ink brushes, rice paper, ink.

They laid down their paper on the desk and began to paint, while people from both sides leaned in to watch.

Xu Siyao was also curious and watched Fan Ruobing paint.

Qin Hao thought it was a bit boring, looking around left and right, wanting to leave but feeling it would be rude.

No one in the classroom spoke, for fear of disturbing the two who were painting.

About twenty minutes later, both had finished their paintings, and Qin Hao glanced at their works to see they had both painted bamboos.

After completing their paintings, the two stepped aside, and then several judges walked forward to take a look.

A few minutes later, the four judges each gave different scores, and the average of the four scores was taken.

Fan Ruobing scored: 83 points, Wang Baishi: 82 points, a marginal difference of just one point.

Upon seeing the results, Wang Baishi was not discouraged and said with a smile, "Mr. Fan is truly outstanding, I admire that."

Fan Ruobing didn't respond to him and directly returned to the Seven-Colored Painting Club side.

This left Wang Baishi somewhat embarrassed; he had been pursuing Fan Ruobing for a long time, but she always ignored him.

Soon after, another man stepped forward, pointing at Xu Siyao and said, "I want to challenge her from your club."

Xu Siyao was momentarily stunned, "I can't, I'm not very good at painting."

Jia Yu said, "Your president just said to choose anyone; why are you scared now?"

The expressions of those from the Seven-colored Painting Club were not very good; they hadn't expected Xu Siyao and Qin Hao to arrive at such a critical time.

If the two hadn't come, each of their group members was fairly skilled.

Fan Ruobing spoke up, "Siyao, go ahead; it's okay if you lose."

"Mr. Fan, if your overall score is lower, you'll have to merge into our club," Wang Anshi said with a smile.

Fan Ruobing ignored him; they had already established the rules earlier when Qin Hao had not yet arrived.

The contest was three rounds, and the side with the highest total score from the three rounds would win.

Xu Siyao bravely stepped forward and, following the same procedure, drew lots: the theme was to be a landscape.

Landscape painting is considered one of the more difficult genres in Chinese painting, especially challenging to capture the artistic conception.

Xu Siyao's painting skills weren't very good, but she could manage and quickly started painting.

The man on the opposite side hadn't expected Xu Siyao to draw the landscape theme, and his brow furrowed; he was confident in widening the score gap with any other theme.

But landscape painting was not easy for him, and he wasn't very sure he could create a large margin.

Luckily, they were given plenty of time, a full hour!

After more than half an hour, Xu Siyao had finished her painting. It wasn't that her painting skills were strong, but rather that was the extent of her capability.

The man quickly finished his painting as well.

After the judges scored, Xu Siyao ended up with fifty-four points, and the man on the opposite side scored sixty-eight points.

Now, the Skillful Hands Painting Club had a lead of thirteen points over the Seven-Colored Club!

After her competition, several people from Qin Hao's side were giving him meaningful looks, including Fan Ruobing, who glanced at him a few times.

Their intention was for him to leave quickly.

In their view, Qin Hao was probably even less capable than Xu Siyao, so they wanted him to leave first.

If someone from the Skillful Hands Club chose him, it would be over.

Qin Hao was actually planning to leave anyway. Seeing the looks from Fan Ruobing and the others, he turned around intending to walk away.

Before he could take a step, someone from the opposite side called out, "Hold on, big brother, where are you off to? You're not scared, are you?"

The hearts of the Seven-colored Painting Club members lifted, wondering if they would shamelessly choose Qin Hao.

Qin Hao turned around with a smile and said, "I have something else to take care of, so I won't disturb your competition."

Liu Baoliang mocked, "That's a pretty lame excuse. If you're scared, just say it. After all, no matter who you compete with over there, you're going to lose in the end."

Xu Siyao, once a fierce young girl, couldn't hold back and retorted, "Who says we're scared?

You think you've won before the match is even over? Which event in the past have you ever won against us?"

Liu Baoliang was left speechless by her rebuttal, pointing at Qin Hao he said, "Fine then, let him come out and compete with me. We'll see who loses and who wins."
