Chapter 361 - Level Four Zither Skills Lingering Echoes
Jiang Hao approached the ancient guqin amidst skeptical looks from the crowd. With a casual flick of his hand, he lightly brushed the strings with the back of his fingers.
A cacophony of zither notes erupted!
Hearing the dissonant sounds, Jiang Hao couldn't help but voice his admiration.
“What a fine zither!”
He then settled himself next to the instrument, his fingers beginning to dance deftly across the guqin.
Suddenly, a beautiful melody sprang forth, like a refreshing spring reaching deep into the soul.
The onlookers were astounded!
Feng Nichang, with her exceptional zither skills, was particularly stunned as Jiang Hao began to play. His mastery was on par with hers!
”But who is this man?”
“Such masterful zither playing, coupled with that formidable Spiritual Force, and those enigmatic eyes?”
“Who is he, truly?”
In the midst of this, Jiang Hao played with increasing enjoyment. The exquisite zither music quieted his mind.
He gently closed his eyes, savoring the moment.
Yet, whether it was a shortfall in his skill or a flaw in the composition, Jiang Hao sensed something amiss.
He furrowed his brow slightly.
“System, elevate my zither skills once more!”
“Understood, host!”
“‘Ding… 100 skill points expended, zither skill upgrade successful!'”
Zither Skill Level 4 (0/1000): A refined art, a path to enlightenment!
With the system's upgrade complete, Jiang Hao felt an instant and seamless connection with the entire piece.
He also confirmed that the issues he sensed were real; there were indeed errors in the transitions of the score.
Now, with his level four zither skills, he could effortlessly navigate those errors.
He was free to deviate from the score and play from his heart!
In that moment, his spirit fully immersed in the music, he was enraptured.
Meanwhile, the crowd was already impressed that Jiang Hao could not only play the guqin but play it so well, as the sound of the instrument resonated deeply within them.
The music was so captivating that they couldn't resist the urge to keep listening. But just as they were enthralled, the melody of the guqin shifted, sending shivers down their spines. In a flash, they were transported by the sound into a world as surreal as a dream. There, butterflies twirled and fluttered in sync with the guqin's tune, performing an aerial dance. Birds perched on branches, their eyes closed in rapture, while the mountain springs chimed in, their babbling notes mingling with the music. They were utterly lost in the enchanting strains of the guqin.
The music wafted through the room, gently rippling outward. Fans waiting anxiously at the front desk were instantly touched by the melody, swept up in its rhythm. Before long, the music had enveloped the entire venue, drawing even the outdoor birds to swirl in the air nearby.
Meanwhile, Jiang Hao was oblivious to it all. He was so deeply absorbed in the music that he didn't notice his Spiritual Force blending into it without his control. Unbeknownst to him, as he played on, the skill level for his guqin on his Stats Window began to shift. His recently advanced Level 4 guqin skill was now inching toward Level 5! The counter on his skill level, which read 0 out of 1000, ticked over to 1, then 2, then 3… His skill was leveling up on its own!
Jiang Hao would have been astounded if he had known, but alas, the piece was not long. Soon, the music came to an end, and Jiang Hao emerged from his trance.
