Seeing Kong Wenyuan speak, everyone turned their attention toward him, curious about what the second topic would be.
Without keeping them in suspense, Kong Wenyuan said directly, "We discussed many topics this afternoon. Since everyone attending today's poetry gathering is a renowned young talent of our Da Qian, we won't bring up overly common subjects. Of course, we won't make things difficult for you with overly obscure topics either, such as frontier borderlands, warfare, or poems of mourning. After all, as you all know, those subjects have already been thoroughly perfected by Xiao Ye with *Po Zhen Zi*, *Jin Se*, and *Jiang Cheng Zi*. Therefore, the second topic for today is: History-Inspired Poetry. Anyone who has something ready may stand up and recite it!"
History-inspired poetry! Hearing this topic, many people were slightly stunned. This subject was neither too obscure nor overly mainstream. However, it was a category Ye Tian had never touched upon before, so everyone was now full of confidence, pondering in their minds in hopes of writing a poem that would outshine Ye Tian.
