Even Emperor Zi felt a hint of anticipation.
In fact, he had heard of the majority of zither cultivator's sound of zither, but very few of them really suited his taste.
This was also the reason why he continued to hold zither conferences. He had always been looking for a type of sound of zither that could make his heart resonate with it.
When one reached his level of cultivation, sometimes, one's persistence in something could exceed the imagination of an ordinary person. Even if one had to spend a great amount of effort and effort, one would still not hesitate to do so.
After a short period of silence, a light and melodious sound of zither floated out of the Ni Chang hall.
This sound of zither was coming from the room that was lit up.
However, only he and the crowd from Hua Qing Hall were able to hear him. The others in the Rainbow Skirt Palace didn't know who was playing, and didn't even know that there was someone playing right now.
There was no light in the room, so they could only wait inside.
The lively melody and rhythm seemed to have some kind of strange magic, causing the people who were already relaxed to feel even more relaxed and joyful, as if they had arrived in heaven on earth. There were no longer any restrictions, and they could do whatever they wanted to do.
"Although the concept of this song is not very profound, it is still unique to this tune. Even those who don't understand the zither can resonate with the sound of zither. They can relax their minds and immerse themselves within it." Someone spoke, his words were sincere and objective, his analysis straight to the point.
"Not bad, I don't know who played the melody, but it can be said to be the highest melody." Another person said.
"I don't think so. The rhythm of this melody is very normal, and the mood is also ordinary. It can only be heard by those who haven't heard the profound zither music before. Those who truly understand the zither really can't enjoy this song!"
Just as many people were praising this song, a completely different voice could be heard. Immediately, quite a few people turned their gazes onto that person, with a hint of coldness in their eyes.
Was this person here to listen to the zither, or was he here to pick a fight?
To belittle the opinions of others to reflect his own sense of superiority?
Isn't that a bit too ridiculous!
However, the crowd was too lazy to argue with that person. Everyone had their own opinions, and no matter how much they fought, there was no result. It was just a waste of time.
At this time, Emperor Zi sat on the throne in mid air with his eyes closed, as if he was enjoying the zither music. No one could see the emotions on his face, and no one knew how he felt at this moment.
The lady in the green dress looked down at Emperor Zi, and when she saw Emperor Zi's expression, she knew that the song did not interest Emperor Zi, or it could be said that it did not suit Emperor Zi's taste.
She had followed Emperor Zi for many years and knew him well. If the zither music resonated with him, he would definitely react.
But at that moment, Emperor Zi did not even open his eyes.
As the melody finished, the light in the room instantly dimmed. Soon after, the second room lit up.
At this time, the zither cultivator in the first room had a depressed look on his face, his expression seemed to be a little depressed. The room was not opened, which meant that he did not receive Emperor Zi's acknowledgement.
This time, it was all in vain.
Not long after, the second zither song ended. There were still many people commenting on it on the stairs. Some people praised it and called it a high quality zither song while others criticized and belittled it as being of a normal standard.
As for the Zither Emperor, his eyes were still closed, as if he were sleeping. It was unknown whether or not he was listening.
Zither music came one after another, endless and varied styles. Some music made people feel relaxed and happy, while others wanted to let themselves go. There were also some music that made people feel sad and depressed, feeling heavy-hearted.
Time passed by. At this moment, it was already the twentieth zither song.
When the zither music came to an abrupt end, it did not seem to be much different from the response it had gotten from the zither music.
However, it was the first time Emperor Zi's eyes opened, he looked towards the direction of the light curtain, and revealed an admiring expression.
Regardless of whether it was the technique or the rendering concept, the song could be said to be exceptionally outstanding. He had perfectly grasped the details of every change in mood, and had always been able to move the heartstrings of others. Even he couldn't help but be immersed in the zither music, his heart moving rhythmically along with the sound of zither.
In the Zither Association, such exquisite and skilled zither arts could be considered to be at the very top. It was likely that only a handful of people were able to defeat him.
If his guess was not wrong, the one playing should be from Qianqin Mountain, a disciple of Ancient Emperor of the Thousand Instrument.
The reason why Qianqin Mountain was called Qianqin Mountain was because Qianqin Mountain was a cultivation heaven for zither cultivator, and was where many outstanding zither cultivator were fostered.
Other than the Young Master Ting Zhu, there were also many other extraordinary people.
"Xi Yue, bestow this person a reward." Emperor Zi looked at the green dressed lady and gave her an order before closing his eyes again.
After Xi Yue heard what Emperor Zi had said, her beautiful eyes did not contain the slightest bit of unusualness.
She had listened to the zither music that she had heard in the Ziyun House for many years, and thought that she had some insights into the zither technique.
However, Emperor Zi only gave out rewards, as though that was all.
The corner of her mouth suddenly revealed a bitter smile. Emperor Zi's taste was truly unfathomable, it was simply impossible to guess just what he wanted.
She turned around and whispered something to the person behind her. That person nodded and left the Hua Qing Palace.
A moment later, a voice suddenly rang out from the room of the person who had just played the piano in the Rainbow Skirt Palace.
"Congratulations, you have received Emperor Zi's reward of a High Rank royal weapon!"
The zither cultivator's pupils shrank when he heard this, a look of unwillingness flashed past his eyes. Was it just a reward?
Just as Emperor Zi had expected, he was indeed the fourth disciple of Ancient Emperor of the Thousand Instrument and the third person of Young Master Ting Zhu.
In terms of status, he was Young Master Ting Zhu's junior direct disciple.
The two of them had both reached the Peak of Emperor Stage realm, but in the Qianqin Mountain, and even elsewhere in the Profound Moon Island, as long as they talked about the young generation of the Qianqin Mountain, everyone would only think of the Young Master Ting Zhu, and not anyone else.
Even if he was also a disciple of the Ancient Emperor of the Thousand Instrument s, it would still be the same.
This time, when he heard that the Young Master Ting Zhu was going to participate in the Zither Auction, he hid his identity and came to participate as well. He wanted to use this opportunity to prove his strength, and he was not inferior to the Young Master Ting Zhu by much.
However, the result was not as he had expected.
He admitted that he had already displayed it to the extreme, yet he had only received Emperor Zi's rewards. This meant that he had not yet reached the standard in Emperor Zi's heart.
But what made him glad was that the Young Master Ting Zhu did not come, and no one else knew that he had come to participate in this Zither Gathering. He only pretended that today's events did not happen, and that he had never been to the Ziyun House before.
However, what he didn't know was that in a room not too far away from him, there was a young man wearing a violet cloak sitting inside.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, as a hint of an extremely good look could be seen on his face. His eyes revealed an expression of wisdom, as though he could see through everything.
The Zither Conference continued, and five more zither songs ended. Amongst the five zither songs, two of them received Emperor Zi's rewards.
Until now, there were already thirty people who had played the zither, and of the people who were acknowledged by Emperor Zi and bestowed rewards upon them, there were only three.
Everyone in the Profound Moon Island knew that Emperor Zi had never cared too much about the skills contained within the sound of zither. However, this did not mean that he did not understand the zither.
Emperor Zi himself already stood at a very high place to listen to the zither. He could tell from the techniques that the majority of people used on the zither music from the moment he heard it, that it was naturally unable to move his heart.
Because of this, he paid more attention to the other aspects of the zither song.
In reality, many people understood that in order to obtain Emperor Zi's recognition, one had to either use an extremely profound technique that was so profound that it could hit the nail on the head.
However, these two points were easy to say, but to actually do them was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
What kind of person was Emperor Zi?
After cultivating for tens of thousands of years and reading all the vicissitudes of life in the world, it was unknown how many famous songs played by experts. To satisfy him, one could imagine how difficult it was.
Even an Emperor Realm zither cultivator would find it hard to do this.
Following that, the thirty-first room lit up, and sound of zither floated out. The music started out extremely solemn and gave off an extremely heavy atmosphere, as though countless giant drums were being played, making one's mood instantly become gloomy.
All the way until the end of the zither music, the hearts of the crowd were all filled with a heavy sense of depression, as though they were unable to breathe.
With regards to this song, they could not give a proper evaluation. The sound of zither's level should be extremely high, but it made them feel uncomfortable, as if they were being pressed down by a rock.
"Awarded." Emperor Zi said with a voice that caused the hearts of the crowd to jump, a hint of surprise in their eyes.
It seemed that Emperor Zi truly understood the zither.
After the song, another two people played the song, but compared to the song just now, it was much more dull, their techniques were not very outstanding, and the mental state the sound of zither was playing did not cause one's heart to tremble, as though listening to it just like that did not feel anything.
It could be seen that the two people behind him still had quite a large gap in their attainments in the zither path from the person in front of them.
Towards these two, Emperor Zi naturally did not have any expression.
At this point, only two people remained.
These two people, were Qin Xuan and the purple cloaked figure.
Qin Xuan listened to the zither music the whole time, but none of the zither music could truly penetrate deep into his heart.
Qin Xuan's expression was gloomy, and his mood seemed to be slightly downcast. Just now, those zither songs made him think of the Master and Senior zither saint that were far away in the Nine Regions.
As for Ruoxi, Qi Luo, Tai Long, and the others, they had no idea how they were doing right now.
When he thought about the Master's cultivation being abolished, the anger in Qin Xuan's heart became uncontrollable, and his eyes became extremely cold. For this debt, he would definitely make the Di Family pay a hundred times the price!
