Chapter 21 Cloud Chasing Style
Jun Tianyun walked and suddenly interrupted the thoughts of Chen Ye.
" Well, Why be so hasty? Seeing Brother Wang Ming, I also want to paint." Jun Tianyun laughed.
" Ah! Even Brother Jun knows how to paint?" Li Yuling was surprised.
" Just a hobby."
Jun Tianyun smiled as he took the canvas and adjusted it.
He stood facing Chen Ye. In that way, With X-ray power, Chen Ye would be able to see the moves of Jun Tianyun, but not the painting when it was being painted.
Jun Tianyun silently activated his Painting Saint profession. Years of experiences and techniques appeared in his heart as he started to paint.
He used a technique from the Painting Saint profession. Although it was Jun Tianyun's first time using the technique, he was able to perform it easily.
First, he randomly made a few strokes. After many strokes, the canvas was filled with random lines.
" Hmm, What is this youngster doing?" Master Ling's eyes drooped slightly as he saw Jun Tianyun's painting.
" Maybe he was just boasting earlier." He sighed.
But suddenly, his eyes changed as he saw the lines were connecting. Jun Tianyun's hands moved at a moderate pace, like a gentle autumn breeze.
Master Ling's shock increased as he saw the portrait slowly unfolding itself. Soon, a picture of a lady appeared on the canvas.
Jun Tianyun didn't use more than three colors. However, the painting looked vivid, almost life-like.
" Mixing truth with false, Illusion is also a reality. This technique is called Cloud Chasing Style."
" Three strokes as a smokescreen, only one of them is real."
" Without learning the essence, if someone just copies the movement of the hand, the painting will be ruined in seconds."
Jun Tianyun didn't take much time as he finished his painting. He turned it around and showed it to everyone.
The canvas depicted a lady. She wore an office suit as she was doing file work. The colors were desolate, but they gave a unique charm to that lady's body.
Her curvaceous body was highlighted by the tight suit and she looked professional. f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦
It was the portrait of Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi was stunned when she saw that painting. A light blush appeared on her face but, she couldn't take her eyes off the painting.
" Teacher Lin, I took you as the model for this painting. Hope you like it." Jun Tianyun laughed as he spoke.
" Brother Jun, Is this painting for sale?"
" I will give 2000 yuan."
" 2000? Bah, I will give 10,000 yuan."
The students started to raise prices like a heated auction.
Lin Ruoxi was nicknamed the Rose of Knowledge among the students.
Her beauty was cold, but everyone knew that her heart was warmer. She helps anyone who asks her.
This portrait looks so attractive that some male students already started to drool over it.
" Bah! It's not for sale!"
" Teacher Lin, This is my gift for you." Jun Tianyun smiled warmly as he gave the painting to Lin Ruoxi.
" Ahh! Th-Thank you, Student Jun. I will cherish it."
Lin Ruoxi coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment as she accepted the painting.
" Hoho, Young man, Your skills are very decent. It seems you learned quite some techniques to paint, Eh?" Master Ling smiled.
" I learned it from my grandfather." Jun Tianyun smiled.
" Are you going to pursue the path of painting? If you want, I can help you." Master Ling spoke sincerely.
" Master Ling wants to take Jun Tianyun as a disciple?"
" Wow, He is so lucky!"
The students discussed as they saw the development. Chen Ye's face turned frosty as he saw everything.
" Master Ling, Thanks for such a high evaluation for me."
"However, Painting is a hobby of mine. I still have lots of things to achieve." Jun Tianyun bowed.
" What? He refused?"
" Hahaha, Jun Tianyun has guts."
The crowd was shocked but Master Ling kept smiling.
' It's fine. As long as you wish, You can meet me." He spoke slowly.
Wang Ming was also shocked when he saw the painting of Jun Tianyun. He was pleased to see the expression of Chen Ye.
" Oi, Chen Ye! It's your turn." Wang Ming laughed as he pointed at Chen Ye.
" Hah, I was getting bored already. Now, It's my time to shine." Chen Ye scoffed as he went forward.
" Damn, I never knew that Jun Tianyun's painting skills are so high. Luckily, I remembered all of his movements."
" Combining his and Wang Ming's skills, No one will be able to defeat me." Chen Ye laughed in his heart as he took the brush.
He visualized the hand movements of Jun Tianyun as he started his painting. Initially, everything went the same as Jun Tianyun's painting.
Master Ling was also surprised when he saw Chen Ye's painting.
" His movement, Isn't that same as the previous kid?"
" Could it be that he also has the same technique as Jun Tianyun?" Master Ling fell into deep thoughts.
" Let's observe him before I conclude anything."
Chen Ye perfectly imitated the movements of Jun Tianyun as he continued to paint.
" Hehe, When I would open my eyes, There would be a perfect painting in front of me." Chem Ye's face turned smug.
" This..." Master Ling's face turned shocked when he saw the final stroke of Chen Ye.
" This is simply absurd. How can this happen?" Master Ling mumbled.
" Chen Ye? Have you finished the painting?"
" Show us!"
" Haha! Look at my masterpiece."
Chen Ye didn't bother to see it first as he turned the canvas.
" This..."
" Holy Cow!"
" Pfttt!"
The crowd burst with laughter, Startling Chen Ye.
" Good, Well played, Chen Ye!"
" This is truly a masterpiece."
" Hahaha, Chen Ye, Your painting is even better than mine."
Wang Ming gasped as he fell to his knees and laughed hard.
" Wh- What's wrong with it."
Chen Ye was startled as he turned the canvas to see the painting.
The first half of the painting depicted a well-drawn human body. However, the other half was just mindless stokes filling the canvas.
It looked like a hideous monster with some human body parts.
" Th-This!! How is this possible!"
Chen Ye almost choked on his saliva when he saw his own painting. His mind was in a mess.
" Impossible! I perfectly imitated the moves of Jun Tianyun. How did the painting got ruined?!
" #@#!%$"
Chen Ye cursed in his heart as he saw everyone laughing at him. He clenched his fist as he glared at Jun Tianyun.
" Interesting. You perfectly copied the moves of that student earlier, but you failed." Master Ling chuckled.
" Painting isn't just drawing something. It's an art where you need dedication."
" To think you boasted earlier, only to make a fool of yourself." Master Ling scoffed.
" I..."
Chen Ye stuttered, but he couldn't say anything.
" Hahaha, Chen Ye, You lost the bet!" Wang Ming laughed loudly. " This painting is shit."
" Brother Wang, You are wrong." Jun Tianyun cut in.
" What?" Wang Ming didn't understand.
" Brother Wang, This painting isn't crap. It can be sold as NFT."
" Brother Chen, You will earn a lot from this painting." Jun Tianyun sighed.
The crowd turned silent. After a few breaths, they laughed even more loudly.
" HAHAHA!"
" So this a modern art, Eh?"
" Chen Ye, I am sorry. I couldn't recognize your art. Ahahaha."
Chen Ye's face turned dark as he saw Li Yuling was also giggling.
" Li Yuling, How you..." Chen Ye shouted.
" What? You said yourself that you can draw better than me. Why are you shouting at her!"
Wang Ming raged. Even Li Yuling was stunned when she saw the expression of Chen Ye.
" That's right, Chen Ye. Boasting about the things you can't do isn't good." Li Yuling spoke softly.
" Yo-You."
Chen Ye trembled as he almost coughed blood from anger.
[ Ding! Chen Ye's face was lost in front of everyone! Chen Ye's Destiny -20! Host gets +20 Destiny Points! Host gets 400 Fortune points.]
[ Ding! The favorability of Lin Ruoxi has increased towards you! Host receives +200 Fortune points!]
[ Ding! Host completed special mission! Host receives a gift box 1x!]
Rows of panels appeared in front of Jun Tianyun as he smiled.
'' I will check the gift later."
Jun Tianyun mumbled as he closed the windows.
" As long as heroine's affection towards me increases, I will get destiny points and fortune points."
" This smelly system is really invincible."
pA n,dan(-)0ve1.c0m Jun Tianyun thought that system is deliberately making him a villain.
" But well, Villains got better perks than protagonists."
" Chen Ye, Pay 30,000 yuan. You have lost the bet."
" Yes! Pay up!"
" I... I will pay tomorrow."
Chen Ye mustered up his courage as he spoke. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
" What! Tomorrow! Chen Ye, don't bullshit with me. A bet is a bet. Pay up 30,000 yuan." Wang Ming was in glee as he shouted at Chen Ye.
" I said I will bet 30,000 yuan. But I didn't say that I will pay today." Chen Ye retorted.
The crowd became speechless at the shamelessness of Chen Ye.
" Chen Ye, you are taking us as clowns?" Wang Ming clenched his fist as he raged.
" Sister Li, What about you? Why don't you say anything?" Jun Tianyun suddenly asked Li Yuling.
" Ah? Me?"
Li Yuling was startled. She knew about the financial condition of Chen Ye.
" Chen Ye, Yous shouldn't have bet knowing that you can't afford it." Li Yuling spoke.
" However, I hope you will pay the money to Wang Ming soon." Li Yuling added.
" Li Yuling..."
Chen Ye was stunned as his mind messed. He hated that he lacked money. Now, even Li Yuling was looking down on him.
Jun Tianyun sent a message to Wang Ming via his phone. Wang Ming saw it as he nodded.
" Alright, Since Sister Li is speaking for you, I won't pursue this matter anymore."
Wang Ming spoke righteously. His decision startled everyone.
" What? Wang Ming letting go of Chen Ye? Am I dreaming?"
" Since when did Wang Ming become so kind?"
" Maybe because of Li Yuling."
The crowd discussed as even Li Yuling was surprised. Wang Ming smiled at her and nodded.
" Hmph! Although I don't lack money, I hope you won't act shamelessly in the future."
" If you can't afford it, Why bet in the first place." Wang Ming taunted as he left.
Chen Ye didn't stay there as he also left.
" ARRRGH!"
Chen Ye screamed in the toilet as he punched the wall.
" Money! I need money!"
" Wang Ming! Li Yuling! I will show you!"
After a while, the painting session ended and the class was dismissed.
" Jun Tianyun. Thank you for the painting." Lin Ruoxi spoke with a heartfelt voice.
" Haha, As long as Sister Ruoxi likes it." Jun Tianyun giggled.
" How about it? Come to my house after school ends, Ok"
" Sure."
