Stunning Poetic Masterpiece

Magnus Astor's nonchalant attitude took everyone, including Phone Lincoln, by surprise.

They initially marveled at his audacity but soon sneered internally, deeming it an act of desperation from a supposed incompetent rival.

As Lincoln completed his composition in a third of the time allotted, he felt a rush of superiority.

In contrast, Astor appeared unfazed, leisurely savoring his wine.

This behavior only heightened Lincoln's disdain, as he perceived Astor as a mere pretender, incapable of any genuine literary accomplishment.

Astor, however, was inwardly delighted, relishing the shock and awe his choice of poem, the famous "Bring in the Wine" by the legendary Poet Immortal Li Bai, had invoked in everyone present.

Grateful to his university professor for instilling such a wealth of classical poetry knowledge in him, Astor was ready to confront the challenge.

After composing himself, Astor turned to William Wong with a composed demeanor.

"Master Wong, as the proposer of this challenge, I invite your fair judgment. Does my poem, 'Bring in the Wine,' compare favorably to Lincoln's work?"

His request put Wong in the position of a judge, eagerly anticipated by an audience still reeling from the impact of Astor's poetic reveal.
