Mo Qingze's display was observed by all, and even Emperor Huian of Great Chu, who was normally undemonstrative, could not help but burst into laughter and lavishly praised, "Indeed, Great Chu is rich in talent. Mr. Mo is knowledgeable and quick of thought. Even if Duke Wen Cheng were alive, he would have to commend the fearfulness of youth!"
Duke Wen Cheng, originally named Wen Tianzhong, was very intelligent from a young age, becoming a Champion Scholar at merely eight years old, the youngest in the five hundred years since the establishment of the imperial examination system. He was versed in astronomy and geography, authored over ten classic works that have been passed down through history, and is known as one of the most famous literati. Posterity revered him as Duke Wen Cheng.
