Honkai Impact 3rd: Join Anti-Entropy at the start and dominate the entertainment industry.

However, as bystanders, we are all happy to see the outcome, no matter what it may be.

If Cézanne loses, everyone will witness the breaking of the undefeated myth of the Changkong University Painting Society.

Now I'll have something to talk about when I go out to eat with friends.

If Bai Qianqu loses, everyone will be even happier, because they can get a great teacher as their assistant.

Anyway, I won't lose money!

Therefore, from beginning to end, only Cézanne was taking the risk in this bet.

But she didn't seem to realize that.

Cézanne asked, "Do you need a referee? I can ask the teacher to come over."

Bai Qianqu shook her head: "There's no need. I trust your judgment."

Cézanne nodded slightly.

Indeed, with her level of connoisseurship, it's immediately obvious which of the two paintings is superior.

Moreover, with so many onlookers, there are enough people to act as referees.

As Kavi prepared the note, the number of onlookers grew larger and larger. Many of them had just received the news and rushed over, and some had already begun to analyze it.

"I think if we draw sketching, the master and the club president might be able to compete. But if we draw something else, it's going to be tough. The club president is a true all-rounder! His skills in other painting genres are no less than his sketching skills! Especially oil painting, which is the club's strongest genre!"

"I wonder if the master artist knows any other painting styles, and how good his skills are? But judging from how readily he agreed, he must be pretty good, right?"

""

As everyone discussed it, some people, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, directly shared what had happened in the art club in their own group chat.

"Everyone come quick! President Cézanne is going to have a painting contest with a mysterious master!"

It immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"What? Cézanne is actually going to compete against someone else? I have to be there to cheer her on!"

"A mysterious expert? Who is it? Who could possibly get the club president to take action? Sounds like a powerful figure!"

"I was originally planning to go out to dinner with my girlfriend, but now I've changed my mind. I'm going to come directly to watch the game!"

"What about your girlfriend?"

"What's more important than having fun?"

Holy crap, 666! I'm destined to be single forever!

Kavi quickly wrote the note, crumpled it up, and put it into a paper cup.

"Alright, keep smoking!"

Cézanne looked at Bai Qianqu, who then made a "please" gesture.

"Lady first."

Cézanne smiled and said, "It's alright, Kavi, you draw one for us."

Kavi rubbed his hands excitedly: "Then I'll draw! I'm warning you beforehand, if I draw something other than a sketch, you might regret it, Master."

Bai Qianqu shrugged, not caring.

Kavi reached directly into the cup, fiddled with it for a while, pulled out a crumpled piece of paper, opened it, and was stunned.

The onlookers were very curious: "What did you draw?"

Kavi, however, kept everyone in suspense. He leisurely took a sip of water before calmly opening the note and showing everyone the result.

Upon seeing the result, someone exclaimed impatiently, "It's an oil painting!"

Upon hearing this, everyone erupted in uproar.

"Holy crap, it's an oil painting?!"

"The expert is about to send it. We were already playing away from home, and to make matters worse, we drew the type that the club president is best at!"

"I don't know how the master's oil paintings are, but I think it's highly unlikely."

"That's a full set of negative buffs! Let's mourn for the pro player for two seconds."

Chapter 333 "Sunflower"

Kavi shrugged at Bai Qianqu, his face full of helplessness: "Sorry, great master, I didn't mean to."

Cézanne also spoke up, saying, "Oil painting is indeed the type of painting I'm best at. If you don't like this type of painting, you can draw another one."

Bai Qianqu shook her head slightly: "It's alright, let's compare oil paintings."

Cézanne smiled, a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Alright, but don't say I'm bullying you. I'll use all my strength."

Bai Qianqu gave Cézanne a deep look and said, "Please do so."

Cézanne sensed that something was off with Bai Qianqu; he seemed overly confident and nonchalant.

Cézanne pointed inside the classroom: "Since there are no problems, let's get ready to begin. There are too many people outside, which might be distracting. Let's go to the small room inside to paint."

“Okay.” Bai Qianqu nodded in agreement.

How long do you need for the match?

"Anything is fine."

"Okay, let's set the time for two hours then. Which type of oil painting will we compete in?"

Although it was decided to be an oil painting, there are different types of oil paintings.

Based on painting techniques, oil paintings can be divided into classical oil paintings, direct oil paintings, and mixed media paintings.

Based on subject matter, it can be divided into figure painting, landscape painting, and still life painting.

With the development of oil painting, other artistic expressions such as abstract oil painting have emerged.

In conclusion, there are many types of oil paintings, and there are significant differences between them. Mastering oil painting is not an easy task.

When faced with Cézanne's question, Bai Qianqu simply replied with two words: "Whatever."

Cézanne gave Bai Qianqu a deep look and then stopped asking questions: "Then let's not limit ourselves to any subject matter. Let's paint freely. That's good, it'll give us more freedom."

Cézanne entered the room first, followed closely by Bai Qianqu.

Painting tools were already prepared in the room, including two easels. Cézanne was already sitting in front of one of the easels.

She concluded by saying, "Let me mention in advance that my specialty in oil painting is landscape painting, so I will also be painting landscapes this time."

Bai Qianqu picked up her paintbrush and said, "I also plan to paint landscapes."

He didn't mean anything by it; he had just commissioned an oil painting, which happened to be a landscape.

However, Cézanne felt quite displeased, feeling that Bai Qianqu was deliberately provoking him. He wanted to paint landscapes, and this guy followed suit, as if he had him completely under his thumb and didn't care what he painted.

"Alright, let's get started."

Cézanne took a deep breath, and his expression became serious.

When she enters this focused mode, all the random thoughts in her mind disappear, and she devotes herself entirely to the creation of her painting.

This is her best state, which helps her create the most perfect work.

Bai Qianqu also became slightly more serious. He didn't start immediately, but instead thought for a moment about the oil painting he had just commissioned—

Van Gogh's "Sunflowers".

He wasn't pretending, nor did he intend to provoke Cézanne.

He truly felt he wouldn't lose, because after absorbing the memories of "Sunflowers," he was no longer Bai Qianqu, but Van Gogh.

Indeed, with the system's support, he even reached Van Gogh's peak performance.

At this moment, his mind was completely filled with top-level knowledge about oil painting.

This knowledge alone represents a master-level understanding of oil painting!

Cézanne was indeed very skilled at oil painting, but she was not a painting master after all.

He was no match for Van Gogh at his peak.

It's worth noting that "Sunflowers" is part of a series of works by Van Gogh, which included several paintings of three, five, twelve, and fifteen sunflowers arranged in vases.

Bai Qianqu commissioned the painting with five flowers.

Bai Qianqu thought for a while and felt it was about time, so she began to mix the paints—this is the most important step in the oil painting process.

In a good oil painting, the color of the paint is very important. Many painters even spend a long time mixing their most satisfactory paint colors.

Bai Qianqu didn't need to spend too much time; he quickly mixed the colors he needed using the paints he had on hand.

The main pigments are white, light yellow, medium yellow, and yellow ochre, followed by ochre and red ochre, with a small amount of green ochre and dark blue added. The final result is a very bright golden yellow.

He picked up a brush dipped in orange paint and began his first creation on the jute canvas.

The orange paint continued to be splashed freely on the canvas, and soon, a golden sunflower appeared on the canvas, this sunflower was at the top.

With a downward stroke, Bai Qianqu continued to outline the flower stem, his wrist suspended in the air.

The petals are full of tension, and the lines are wild and unrestrained, bold and unrestrained.

The vibrant yellow and bold brushstrokes express the sunflower's form and vitality; the bright yellow petals bloom on the canvas as if dancing with intense flames.

Bai Qianqu gradually got into the zone, and he really enjoyed this state of complete concentration.

It can help him eliminate distractions and focus wholeheartedly on artistic creation.

At that moment, it was as if he were the only one left in the world, and he was the master of the entire world.

Soon, the first sunflower was completed. Its shape resembled a flame burning on a restless canvas, with its freely dancing lines conveying boundless passion and vitality.

All the characteristics of a sunflower were incredibly clear in Bai Qianqu's mind.

It was as if he had been observing sunflowers for countless years.

These few strokes have created a tremendous impact.

Bai Qianqu didn't stop; he continued drawing the second sunflower.

The sunflower is turned to the side, its petals full and in full bloom.
