I Am A Prodigy Chapter 225
Advertisement
That simple blank chapter was like a boulder thrown into a still lake, which stirred up huge waves!
Regardless of their age group or occupation, the moment they read that poem, their blood boiled and rushed straight to their heads. Some of them even bellowed right on the spot!
[Sob sob sob, this poem is too good. It's moved me to tears!]
[In my life, I'm most impressed with those in the literary field for no other reason than them being good with words!]
[Is that the power of a pen? Just a simple poem riled up our emotions and helped us feel fearless!]
[Ahhh, if this isn't considered a masterpiece, I'll eat three pounds of sh*t!]
[Just this poem alone crushes Under the Heavens! It's true. I feel that this poem is better than the poems I learned in class!]
[Just for this poem alone, I'll support Celestial Bane even if I have to sell my belongings!]
[I hereby announce that from this moment, I am Y is worthy of Y's name!]
…
Celestial Bane's comments section was bustling with the activity of countless readers.
Some even jested, [Some people might be a novelist on the surface, but he's actually a literary master in hiding.]
At Yuewen's back end…
Yogurt originally thought of advising Ye Lingchen to avoid the confrontation.
After all, 3Logs was an old-time author with deep roots backed by countless fans. Moreover, Under the Heavens also had a massive word count backing it, which put Celestial Bane at a disadvantage when both were pit against each other.
Celestial Bane was still at its infancy. If it pissed off the big shots, that would inadvertently bring about severe repercussions.
However, when he saw Celestial Bane responding to 3Logs with a blank chapter, he could not help but chuckle bitterly. Both parties were already at each other's throats.
He then opened up Celestial Bane's blank chapter. Immediately, his mouth was wide open from the sight. It took him a long time to snap out of his daze, finally exclaiming, "F*ck!"

He had thought of various possibilities but never expected Celestial Bane to take such a direct approach.
It was shocking to see him respond by writing a poem.
What was the benchmark of being amazing? That was it!
The methods employed were beyond the imagination of the average person!
"Yogurt, what's up? Why are you so agitated?" The other editors of the website were shocked by Yogurt's outburst. Even the chief editor was frowning.
There were a lot of books being published on National Day, hence causing a lot of editors to be working overtime.
"Celestial Bane released a blank chapter," said Yogurt in a daze.
"Isn't it normal to release a blank chapter? What's the big deal?" Sunny Day walked up close to him. When he saw it, his eyes popped wide open and similarly shouted, "F*ck!"
"What's up with both of you?"
The rest were similarly dazed, then came over with the chief editor at the lead.
As they saw it, their expressions were all the same, with their eyes almost popping out of their sockets. They all exclaimed "F*ck!" at the same time.
The clear sounds echoed throughout the halls of Yuewen's building, scaring everyone in the building.
"Original, this is an original work!" The chief editor trembled, his voice shaking with excitement. "This poem is a masterpiece amongst masterpieces! Who wrote it?"
"Chief, it's the blank chapter from I am Y," Yogurt replied.
"So it's the author of Celestial Bane. That's not surprising then," The chief editor took a deep breath, a look of excitement in his eyes. "Push this poem out there. Place it on Qidian's banner. We must advertise this as much as possible!"
"Chief editor, the banner is tightly controlled. It's reserved for the novels from the big shot authors!" One of the editors reminded him,
"Hahaha, Just do as I say!" The chief editor laughed. "Although online novels are developing very quickly, no matter how hard we try, we will never be recognized by the traditional literature community. To the public, we are just the fast food of literature, used to kill time, something unsuitable for presentation. Now that we finally found such a poem, wouldn't we be idiots not to hold onto this chance?!"

"Push this out there. I want everyone to know that our online novels can produce poems as well. This is an opportunity, one to have the world recognize online novels!"
The other editors were also nodding their heads in agreement. They were filled with respect for I am Y.
In just a few minutes, Ye Lingchen's poem spread from the website to all major forums. Furthermore, it shot straight to the top of the list with unending comments!
[Our generation was born through times of trouble! Such magnificence. With just one sentence, it struck me straight at my heart!]
[No wonder he dared name himself I am Y. No matter his talent or mentality, both are qualities of a heaven-defying person!]
[Ahhh, he's so cool, domineering, and talented! I feel that Y's team has another member now!]
[I've not read Celestial Bane before, but after reading this poem, I will support it based on this poem alone!]
[If you're a hero, you should vote for Celestial Bane. What do I fear?!]
[This blank chapter is the bomb. At first I was only here for the drama, but it got my blood boiling.]
Beep, beep, beep.
In just a brief moment, Yogurt sent Ye Lingchen a message.
[I am Y, your blank chapter is too well written. Our website would like to advertise with it. Are you okay with that?]
[No problem,] Ye Lingchen replied.
Yogurt was being courteous, out of respect for Ye Lingchen.
Since Ye Lingchen published his novel on their website, they had the right to make use of the contents in the novel as they see fit.
[Thank you,] Yogurt replied. He then added, [You can upload the published chapters now.]
Ye Lingchen nodded.
Getting into the author's corner, he uploaded the chapters he prepared in advance.
A total of 50 thousand words, all uploaded in one go!
Meanwhile, countless people were waiting for the update in front of their computers, hoping to read to their heart's content.
[Alright, I'm done uploading. I'll be going to bed now,] Ye Lingchen informed Yogurt.
[You're...going to bed?] Yogurt asked in surprise.
Publication was an important phase for most authors. On that night, many authors would be excited and nervous, losing their sleep as they stay up all night watching the author's corner.
Ye Lingchen's results were amazing, yet he would go to sleep without even bothering to wait?
His heart...was just too calm.
[That's right. I'm going to sleep, Goodnight,] Ye Lingchen went offline decisively after a simple greeting, without any hesitation at all.
Yogurt was not the only one stupefied. All the editors in Yuewen were also stupefied.
They followed Yogurt, following the results of Celestial Bane with him. Ironically, the person in question was not the slightest bit bothered by this.
That was the first time in history that they met such a situation.
They exchanged glances, then shook their head helplessly. 'Nevermind, since you don't care, well just keep an eye on it for you.'
As the new novel with the highest potential, its results tugged at the heartstrings of the entire editor team in Yuewen…
