Chapter 107: Kneel, Exploding the Arena! (2)
Translator: _Min
[Quick explanation for the front row, saying ‘you weigh so little’ is a way of calling Mu Ye shameless and heartless.]
[??? I’ve learned something new. Should Teacher Si start a course on insulting people?]
Lin Qingyan was completely taken aback. Despite heeding her agent’s advice to lower her profile and avoid direct confrontation with Si Fuqing, she still found herself humiliated.
Fury surged through her, making her body tremble. But she couldn’t retort.
Her face was still healing, and if Si Fuqing ripped off her mask, she’d be trending for all the wrong reasons the next day.
“If Teacher Si has a problem, take it up with me!” Mu Ye gritted his teeth. “This is my personal decision, unrelated to Teacher Lin. I am the one challenging
Teacher Si.”
“Oh,” Si Fuqing chuckled softly, “My memory must be failing me. I seem to have mistaken you for a human being again.”
Mu Ye’s face turned ashen, his mind buzzing.
[Si Fuqing: Understood, kneel in peace.]
[Get lost, Mu Ye! You’re already leaving, why make such a fuss?]
[Is Si Fuqing chickening out? LOL, afraid to even compete with a trainee? What kind of mentor is that?]
Mu Ye instinctively looked toward the audience, seeking anyone from Tianle Media, but received no encouraging response.
He clenched his fists, feeling the gaze of the audience piercing him like thorns, engulfing him in utmost humiliation.
His face flushed, Mu Ye was torn between stepping forward or retreating.
“Alright, alright, the farewells are over. Let’s move on!” The host energized the atmosphere, microphone in hand. “The ‘Youth With You’ group battles begin now! ”
“We have a total of sixteen teams and eight rounds of competition. Let’s take a look at a brief introduction of each group.”
“The first group, with the center being Xie Yu!” The fans in the audience started screaming.
Yu! Xie Yu!”
Footage of Xie Yu’s group during training began playing on the big screen.
[Ah, look at Xie Yu’s figure—someone’s going to get lucky in the future.] [Why aren’t they showing more of Teacher Si? She always seems to vanish.]
[Isn’t that more evidence that Si Fuqing doesn’t teach anything? If she’s not going to coach, she should just give up the mentor seat.]
One group after another was introduced. When the host spoke for the fourth time: “The fourth group, with the center being Lu Yan.”
Unlike other groups, Lu Yan’s team had specially edited footage.
This maneuver from the production team gained Lu Yan a few more votes.
Coupled with the backend vote-boosting system, Lu Yan successfully overtook
Xie Yu and claimed the top spot.
Soon, the group introductions were completed.
“Today we have a thousand public judges, ” the host said, lifting his hand to point to the right side of the audience. “They are the first set of inspectors on our path to forming a group!”
Fans in the crowd immediately started waving their glow sticks.
“Every single vote from you will be crucial,” continued the host. “You can cast your precious vote for the trainees through the button in front of your seats during each battle.”
“Do you see that highest seat? That’s where today’s ‘Likes King’ will be sitting.
Who will it be?”
The crowd’s cheers roared back to life.
“Lu Yan! It’s our Lu Yan!”
“Our mentors are also fighting for honor,” the host chuckled. “Who among them has an eye for talent, who will be the best benefactor? The mentors are intensely voting too.”
Given the final outcome’s importance, the trainees’ vote totals weren’t directly revealed, but the mentors faced no such restrictions. The big screen displayed the voting numbers.
No.l Si Fuqing 7,456,987
No.2 Lin Qingyan 987,312
The host exclaimed, “Wow, Teacher Si’s popularity is truly unparalleled; no one comes close!”
Lin Qingyan stared at the screen, her nails digging into her palms.
Her vote count was not even a fraction of Si Fuqings.
Were her fansjust loafing around? Absolutely useless.
Enough, she had to counter-attack.
“Our Teacher Lin has something to say,” the host noticed Lin Qingyan picking up the microphone. “What would you like to share, Teacher Lin?”
“As this is the first public performance, I, as a mentor, should set an example,” Lin Qingyan walked onto the stage. “Let me perform a short dance to liven up the atmosphere.”
“Great! Teacher Lin will dance to the theme song for us, ” the host stepped back.
“Please, Teacher Lin.”
The backstage crew urgently played the accompaniment for the theme song.
Lin Qingyan, true to her idol roots, danced impressively, successfully gaining
herself a surge in votes..
