Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Shimen.

Guan Changsheng was sitting beside the bamboo forest, lost in thought.

He was chasing that fleeting inspiration.

However, ever since he made that bamboo sedan chair, his inspiration had been like a meteor across the sky: visible but uncatchable!

He knew the reason; it was because he had spent all his inspiration and energy on that bamboo sedan chair, leaving him feeling drained now.

It would get better slowly, but for now, it was impossible to make anything remarkable!

"Are you Teacher Guan?!"

A man in a suit approached Guan Changsheng.

"Ah? Who are you?!"

Guan Changsheng snapped out of his daze and looked at the man in the suit, frowning.

Though he didn't recognize everyone at the school, he had at least seen many faces around.

But this man, he had never seen before.

Where did this man come from?!

"Oh, I'm from the Magic City Bamboo Art Exhibition. Our boss knows you're the top master of bamboo art under Young Master Lu, so he specifically sent me to invite you over."

The man in the suit spoke unhurriedly.

He is one of Zhan Longyan's most elite men, handling situations without a change in facial expression or heartbeat.

He initially thought it would be difficult to mingle at the school because of the presence of people from the Lu Group.

But upon asking the security, he found out that Lu Xiaobu didn't set many people from the Lu Group here to avoid scaring the children!

This made it extremely easy for him to blend in.

This really delighted him!

"What do you want me to do over there?!"

Guan Changsheng still had a sense of alertness.

"Oh, the thing is, Young Master Lu went to our bamboo art exhibition, and some Japanese are deceiving Young Master Lu. However, our boss can't interfere directly due to his identity, and Young Master Lu can't contact you directly, so I came here instead."

The man in the suit stated calmly.

"What?!"

Guan Changsheng was immediately anxious!

Young Master Bu was being deceived?!

That couldn't be allowed!

"Let's go! Hurry! Did you come by car? Is there still time?!" Guan Changsheng urgently stood up and spoke.

"I came by our boss's private plane, so there's no need to worry, we can definitely make it!"

The man in the suit sincerely nodded.

"Alright, alright, then let's hurry!"

Guan Changsheng hastily said.

He didn't care about private planes or not, he only cared that there was still time!

The man in the suit, looking at Guan Changsheng who was disheveled and even had bamboo shavings on him, smiled slightly at the corners of his mouth, took a quiet photo, sent it out, and added a text—Boss, it's done!

…

Far away in Magic City, Zhan Longyan saw the message and a cold smile formed on his lips as he handed his mobile phone to his secretary: "Proceed."

"Yes!"

The secretary nodded immediately.

Then, a minute later.

All the posters in the exhibition about the five Japanese bamboo art masters and about bamboo art were replaced with—"The Heavenly Dynasty's Bamboo Art Master—Guan Changsheng, and the Century Battle with Japanese Bamboo Art Masters!"

The poster was fairly well-designed.

The five Japanese retained their original position on the right side of the poster.

While Guan Changsheng appeared mysteriously as a silhouette on the left side!

The two sides were in sharp contrast, and in the middle was a curved bolt of lightning, giving an inexplicably thrilling feeling!

…

Ten minutes later, every promotional flyer inside the exhibition changed to the same as the poster!

And detailed introductions of the five Japanese bamboo artists were provided.

Such as their backgrounds, past works, awards received, and so on!

But regarding Guan Changsheng, just two words—Mysterious!

Yet, this kind of evasive expression further excited everyone who saw the flyers!

After all, this had escalated to a height—it's a battle between the origin and the developed lands!

…

Half an hour later.

Major online news broke.

"China's Bamboo Art Master Seeks Justice for China's Bamboo Art"

"We are the Origin! We are not inferior!"

"Lu Xiaobu Takes Another Transcendent Action!"

"The School Was Just Built, Now Asserting Rights for China's Bamboo Art!"

"…"

With Zhan Longyan's direct command, and the inherent popularity of Lu Xiaobu, the issue instantly became extremely hot!

Everyone showed immense enthusiasm.

"Hahaha, Young Master Bu is awesome!"

"Yes, this bamboo art originally spread from our Heavenly Dynasty, why don't we see Chinese bamboo art now?! Young Master Bu is doing it right!!"

"We need to show these guys we are capable, even more capable than them!"

"Mysterious man?! Is that the teacher from Lu Xiaobu's school?! I have seen him, he is definitely capable!"

"Surely capable, otherwise how could he catch Young Master Bu's eye?!"

"Wait for me, wait for me, I'm heading over!"

"Where to?!"

"To the bamboo art exhibition! How can you not see such a thing in person?!"

"Actually, no need to watch, Young Master Bu is definitely going to win! Hahaha!"

"…"

Netizens were overwhelmingly positive!

After all, Lu Xiaobu had always been synonymous with miracles, especially in such situations, and he was undoubtedly the one in charge!

So, they all showed immense enthusiasm!

But what no one knew was that Lu Xiaobu himself was unaware of this.

This was all Zhan Longyan's scheme to hype him up.

Zhan Longyan, watching the rising waves of public opinion, let out a conceited laugh: "Hahaha, Lu Xiaobu, Lu Xiaobu, do you know what it means to fall harder the higher you climb? Aren't you going to crash this time?!"

He felt extremely pleased with himself!

Water that carries a boat can also capsise it; indeed, Lu Xiaobu is highly revered by everyone, but that's not entirely beneficial.

Like now, the higher the expectations, the harder the fall!

What?!

Lu Xiaobu won't lose?!

Are you kidding me?!

His subordinate, Guan Changsheng, didn't bring any bamboo art at all!

One side unprepared, while the other thoroughly prepared!

Is there even a need for a competition?!

Fine, you say Guan Changsheng can make it on the spot!

Alright, I'll let him do it!

But, is it that easy to just do it?!

If so, there would be no such thing as art in this world!

So, Lu Xiaobu, this time, you are sure to lose!

The five Japanese bamboo artists, seeing this, also revealed a cunning smile.

Lu Xiaobu?!

You beat Korea?!

Beat our country?!

Today, let's show you who really gets beaten!

Imagine, once this exhibition ends, they not only leave with bulging wallets but also with the glory of having defeated Lu Xiaobu, what will they look like?!

At that moment, they will be the heroes of all of Japan!
