Chapter 786
The Ultimate Husband
Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 786 â The pretty lady on-stage said to her mic, âLadies and
Gentlemen, my name is Penny and Iâm the host for the Poetry League. Iâll now come up with a theme on where
everyone should base their poetry composition on. Whoever writes the best will earn the Gifted Hibiscus Scholar
title! You should know this title is the highest honor for scholars and literati!â
Penny scanned the crowd. âItâs deep into autumn, so the theme for this yearâs Poetry League is Autumn. Whoever
writes the best poem wins!â
âI have a poem!â
A fat middle-aged man slowly appeared from the crowd and walked to the stage.
Instantly, everyoneâs eyes were on him with surprise plastered on their faces. The theme was just announced-how
could he have composed a poem so fast?
They were curious and wanted to hear what he had come up with.
Penny-on-stage-was also surprised before she smiled lightly and said, âPlease go ahead with your poem.â
The fat man nodded. He was silent for a while before starting to slowly swirl his head from side to side and reciting.
âDrinking deep into Autumnâs night.
âFeeling like puking the next dayâs light.
âThough I was annoyed and bored.
âI lamented.â
The minute he finished reciting, he anxiously asked Penny, âGorgeous Penny, my poem is pretty meaningful right?
Do you think I have hopes of becoming the champion?â
At his words, Jewel could not help but spit the candy in her mouth out before smiling and said, Haha! Darryl, This
manâs poem is interesting. He just did doggerel! Haha!â
At the same moment, the crowd roared with laughter.
âHaha! Iâm d***g of laughter. What bad poetry, haha!â
âHe wants to win? He must still be hungover.â
The on-stage Penny also pursed her lips and smiled before saying to the fat man, âSir, please go and sober up.â
At the same time, two burly men rushed up to the stage and kicked the fat man off-stage.
This Poetry League is no childâs play. This man was a troublemaker for sure. The two verses he recited just
moments ago could not even be considered doggerel.
After that, no one dared to go on-stage hastily.
After a few minutes, a middle-aged man in a long robe finally walked slowly on-stage.
He truly looked like a literati with his golden frame spectacles.
âIsnât that Roman Newmont?â
âYes! Itâs Hibiscus Cityâs scholar! Heâs truly talentedâ
âRoman!â
A few ladies could not hide their excitement as they covered their mouth and screamed. Roman was a nearby
resident gifted poet who was great at writing poetry.
Penny sized Roman up before gently saying, âSir, please start your poetry recitation.â
âHmm.â Roman nodded. He took up the microphone and walked two steps forward on the stage before slowly
recited.
âAutumn brings the winter breeze.
âThree parts were bone-chilling.
âSeven parts were moon-drinking.
âDonât be melancholic for the nights are sleepless and endless.â
âWow!â
The entire crowd gasped and cheered.
âGreat poem. Such a great poem! He could create such a great poem in less than fifteen minutes. Roman really has
a deep literature understanding and background!
Roman smiled at the applause he received and picked up the microphone before declaring, âIâm going to be this
yearâs champion! The Gifted Hibiscus Scholar title is mine! I urge those who feel itâs unfair to challenge my poem!â
At that moment, the crowd looked at each other with none dared to go on-stage.
Romanâs poem was truly flawless. No one would dare to go on-stage only to be humiliated.
âDarryl!â Jewel tugged on Darrylâs arm. âGo up and try.â
Previously, Darryl defeated the Artemis Sect Master at poetry and Jewel hoped Darryl could show off his talent at
todayâs Poetry League.
Darryl did not want to go up but ended up nodding after looking at Jewelâs hopeful eyes. âOk!â
Darryl then squeezed through the crowd and walked up on-stage.
âLittle brother, what are you doing on-stage? This is the Poetry League, please donât cause trouble.â At that
moment, Penny irritatedly looked at Darryl and said.
âThis person looks ugly and wears strange clothes! He must be some film setâs extra here to try and cause trouble
by coming on-stage!â Penny thought.
Darryl was stunned for a moment before he immediately smiled. âIâm not trying to cause trouble, but only to recite
a poem. Iâm also not some little brother. The nameâs Darryl Darby.â
