Before watching the dance, everyone was still full of confidence.
After watching "Yongchun" and "Falling Flowers in Love", Lin Yu could clearly feel the change in everyone's mindset.
The drummer girl even asked Lin Yu if he could sing other classic anime tracks.
They could also put together an impromptu medley to compete.
Maybe it would have amazing effects.
As a result,
Before Lin Yu could even open his mouth,
Brother Hao stepped forward first and rejected the drummer girl's proposal.
It was already a miraculous stroke of luck that Lin Yu could fill in for Xiaolie's absence.
Moreover,
He didn't think that randomly adding things by imitating others would yield any good results.
It was better to choose to believe, to believe in everyone's performance and Lin Yu's singing.
This speech really hit home with Lin Yu.
Countless facts had proven that no matter how many fancy techniques there were, they were no match for brute force!
On the stage, the musicians adjusted their equipment and gestured signals to the sound engineer.
Lin Yu adjusted his breathing rhythm, immersed in the nervous and excited mood of his first stage appearance...
He didn't say this casually.
The rehearsal in the lounge could only bring out about 30% of their capabilities.
How could the airtight environment of pure dry vocals showcase the extreme pain of this song?
"Clang!"
The spotlight came on.
Chi Qingchi below the stage clenched her fists, holding her breath nervously.
The first line!
Whether they could control the situation or not depended on the first line!
Without any accompaniment from the sound system or instruments, Lin Yu had to showcase the first line purely with his personal singing skills!
At this moment,
She was even more nervous than the performers on stage.
"O shi e dei yo~ Shi e dei yo~ So no~~ Shi ku mi wo..."
His voice was crisp and clear!
The acapella singing full of extreme pain made everyone on site stand up and pay attention!
Immediately afterwards,
The keyboardist perfectly matched the rhythm, driving the underlying beat.
"Bo ku no na ga ni~ Da re ga~ I ru no..."
When he sang towards the end of the first stanza,
The outburst of the drums and electric guitar completely tore the emotions apart!
Xiang Tiange bit her finger, sitting on the chair below the stage, her eyes trembling constantly.
She didn't even need to say anything. The other "six delicate flowers" beside her were already completely stunned!
Some of them even made somewhat crazy remarks in a state of infatuation!
"Oh my god, how can he sing so well?"
"Not only does he look good, but his singing skills are also so amazing. Is there any hope for us?"
"Unbelievable, sisters! It's like Kaneki Ken is on stage singing 'Shai Daitai'!"
"Oh no, why can't I help but stand up?"
"..."
These were still the relatively reserved remarks from the members of the Anime Club.
Looking at the other performers on site, they were already making all kinds of exaggerated expressions out of excitement.
"Damn it! Holy shit, it's in four languages! It's so damn exciting!"
"Pain, so much pain... It reminds me of my days in Japan!"
"It's not my fault, it's the whole world that's wrong!"
"I can't change the world, but I'll do something for Brother Kaneki!"
"..."
Lin Yu could feel
The atmosphere and cheers from below the stage.
It was definitely much more explosive than the atmosphere of the "Yongchun" and "Falling Flowers in Love" performance.
It was a competition after all!
Of course, a more battle - themed style of music was better at controlling the scene.
His perfect singing also made the musicians in the band go completely crazy.
They were completely immersed in the performance.
"The blood is spreading~ Dyeing the picture red~ Who left a desperate thought~"
"Can't hear the complaints~ Even the roars~ Seeping into the past~"
"Who will repay me~ The broken and scarred memories~"
"The memories nurtured by blood..."
After the Chinese part of the song was sung,
Zhao Yuhao returned to the area below the stage from the side of the stage.
Hearing this,
He already knew... They had this in the bag!
On the background screen of the stage, there was an MV that Little Chi had specially edited.
It perfectly matched the on - site performance.
Zhao Yuhao then looked at Little Chi below the stage.
She was jumping up and down excitedly, raising her hands high and singing along loudly.
Zhao Yuhao pushed his glasses up and murmured softly with slightly parted lips:
"Thee ChOblOWing in the darkneSS~"
"That'S a devil'S rOar Of anger~"
"(English part of the song)"
"..."
Not long after,
The performance was over!
There was a burst of enthusiastic applause on site.
The event host in charge of controlling the proceedings couldn't help but add an extra comment when announcing the next step:
"This year's Summer Exhibition is really full of talented people. It has really opened my eyes!"
"I'm really honored to be part of this."
"Next, Group 17, get ready to take the stage!"
When Lin Yu stepped down from the stage,
Little Chi ran to the exit on the side of the stage in advance, excitedly hooking her arm around Lin Yu's:
"Lin, you're the best in the whole world!"
"I'm really about to kneel down to your singing!"
"Hey, did you guys see the reaction from the audience just now?"
"We're definitely going to win the gold award this time!"
"Xiang Tiange was sitting not far from me just now. I saw her the whole time like this..."
As Little Chi said this, she imitated Xiang Tiange's gestures and expressions.
After the imitation, she burst out laughing.
Happy emotions are contagious.
Moreover,
Little Chi wasn't the only one who felt proud and honored.
"Ahem..."
Just as everyone was about to let loose,
Zhao Yuhao spoke up in a timely manner:
"Let's go back to the lounge first and take a break.
Save the chatting for when we're back in the lounge. We don't want to be laughed at by outsiders."
Everyone didn't feel like they were being dampened.
Instead, they quite agreed with what the vice - president said and walked towards the lounge with big smiles on their faces.
Zhao Yuhao himself didn't leave.
Although their biggest competitor had already finished their performance,
It didn't mean that there wouldn't be any dark horses among the remaining Groups 17 - 22.
He wanted to stay alone to make sure he watched the whole rehearsal.
...
At 11:40 a.m.,
The exhibition hall opened.
Tourists and spectators gradually arrived at the scene.
The crowded hall was still filled with the flashing of cameras.
In addition,
There were also staff from Douyu Live setting up cameras on site to live - stream the entire process of the program exhibition.
Backstage in the exhibition hall,
The twenty - two performance teams were each practicing in their own areas.
The performers in each group added to the lively atmosphere on site.
When it was Group 14's band's turn to take the stage,
Chi Qingchi gathered everyone together to cheer them on:
"It'll be our turn in about ten minutes!"
"As the vice - president said, there won't be any dark - horse opponents after us.
So, as long as we perform normally, there's no problem."
"Thank you!
I really appreciate everyone's efforts!"
"Enjoy the spotlight!"
It was definitely a lie to say they weren't nervous.
But Little Chi's gentle words of encouragement still had the effect of easing the atmosphere.
Lin Yu: "Don't worry, leave it to us. We..."
"Bang..."
A strange sound suddenly made Lin Yu stop speaking.
Everyone looked at the lead guitarist, Xiao Ou, at the same time.
Xiao Ou stared blankly at the guitar in his hand, saying in a trembling voice:
"Qin, the strings... are broken!!"

【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
