Night had fallen, but Minghai Academy was exceptionally bright. Not only were all the street lamps lit, many additional lights had been set up, making the entire playground as bright as day.

At this moment, it was already 7:50 PM, and all the students were waiting under the night sky for the party to begin!

The party was scheduled to start at 8 PM and end at 10 PM!

"The annual autumn moon party is about to start soon, and in past years, the autumn moon party was organized by the teachers and students of Minghai Academy. This year, our autumn moon party is officially called the Autumn Moon Mixer. As everyone knows, today Minghai Academy has welcomed good friends from the Third Academy. Let us now give a warm welcome to the teachers and students from the Third Academy!" The host was a girl, quite beautiful, and though she was somewhat inferior in comparison to Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan, she was nevertheless a top-tier beauty, so when she spoke, she was definitely the center of attention!

This host didn't waste any time with needless chitchat; after a brief introduction, she invited everyone to enjoy the song and dance performances!

After all, today was about the party, and the main attraction was the party's programming!

At that moment, on top of a basketball hoop!

"Wow, what a beauty!" Wei Yang, seated on the basketball hoop, exclaimed as soon as he saw the many girls in the song and dance performance, his comments lacking any self-restraint.

Ye Xiao, sitting next to him, immediately scorned, "Are you serious? You call that beautiful?"

Wei Yang instantly retorted, "Brother Xiao, you're always with absolute beauties like Ling Shuya, Zhou Yuyan, Su Yun, and others. How would you understand our standards of beauty?"

Ye Xiao smiled faintly and said no more, but his gaze continued to scan the surroundings of the evening party.

Ye Xiao did not plan to watch the song and dance that day. There were many people from Minghai Academy present, so he felt obliged to ensure the safety of Ling Shuya and others!

Ling Shuya and the other girls were now in the place closest to the stage, while Ye Xiao was situated about twenty meters away from them.

To others, twenty meters was certainly a considerable distance, and a lot could happen within that span. But for Ye Xiao, those twenty meters were very close, and if he wished, he could reach Ling Shuya and the others in a second to prevent anything from happening to them!

Moreover, Ye Xiao was very capable, so even though he was twenty meters away, he could still clearly see every move Ling Shuya and the others made!

One act after another, song and dance, comedy skits, the evening unfolded until around 8:30 PM, when the host's words caught Ye Xiao's attention.

"Now, please welcome Qin Yulu from the Third Academy to sing 'Starry Sky Love.'"

The host stepped down, and Qin Yulu slowly walked onto the stage.

Ye Xiao was familiar with "Starry Sky Love"; it was a masterpiece by a well-known female singer from within the country, and the difficulty level of singing it was very high. One needed to have strong vocal skills and immense talent, or else it was impossible to deliver this beautiful song to standard.

When Qin Yulu appeared under the spotlight, the teachers and students at the party burst into a frenzy. Minghai Academy boasted many stunning beauties, but this beauty from the Third Academy was in no way inferior in appearance to the native beauties of Minghai, causing an immediate stir among the entire audience, with cheers and applause merging into a lively scene.

The beautiful accompaniment began to play gently, and Qin Yulu stood motionless on the stage as if oblivious to the cheers from below.

Many who did not recognize Qin Yulu might have mistaken her cool demeanor for aloofness.

But Ye Xiao could see clearly that Qin Yulu had her eyes closed, and on her face was an expression that showed nothing but enjoyment of the music—the sheer pleasure of indulging in the beautiful melodies.

The cheering gradually turned to curiosity, and the venue slowly quieted down.

Then, at that moment, Qin Yulu's stunning eyes suddenly opened, accompanied by a faint, gentle, and soft voice.

When Qin Yulu's singing slowly began, the worry that Ye Xiao had harbored about her performance melted away.

At that moment, Qin Yulu seemed to be one with the song, like the protagonist in the lyrics, soaring through the starry sky, reveling in the vast expanse of splendor.

The song came to an end, and the venue remained quiet, with everyone touched by Qin Yulu's voice and the pursuit of love portrayed in the song, affecting every person present.

Just as a few people started to react, a thunderous applause broke out across the venue.

Qin Yulu's performance had been unconsciously successful, achieving perfection in both vocal execution and emotional expression. Ye Xiao suddenly thought that if Qin Yulu set her sights on the music industry, she might quickly become a shining star.

"This Qin Yulu from the Third Academy is not only beautiful, but she also sings really well!" Wei Yang said with a chuckle, "Whoever marries Qin Yulu is sure to be over the moon in happiness."

"That's for sure!" Sun Yuze, Zhan Bo, Tang Xuewen, and others standing under the basketball hoop immediately echoed the sentiment.

Not many men could resist the allure of a beautiful woman!

It wasn't clear whether it was because of Qin Yulu's previous performance, but the following acts, though spectacular, seemed somewhat pale and feeble in comparison to many of the students!

Around nine o'clock, the event finally had another highlight!

Minghai Academy's pair of stunning beauties, Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan, made a brilliant entrance.

Their attire wasn't particularly extravagant, but it couldn't mask their beauty, capable of toppling kingdoms and cities!

Therefore, their appearance immediately prompted countless screams and cheers!

Ling Shuya was the most familiar with and the fondest of Liu Muyun's songs, and the same went for Zhou Yuyan, so the song they chose to sing was 'With You For Life,' which they had sung before at KTV!

This was Liu Muyun's claim to fame and one of her most classic pieces, and Ling Shuya's control over this song was the strongest.

Ling Shuya had sung a song by Liu Muyun at the last Minghai Academy's autumn moon party, a song that wasn't particularly great, yet it was that performance that established Ling Shuya's reputation as the new top beauty of Minghai Academy. And this time, taking the stage, Ling Shuya was still singing Liu Muyun's song, but this time, she was pushing that reputation to the limit!

Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan, the two beauties, didn't just attract attention by singing, just standing on the stage was an eye-catching presence, and furthermore, their voices were so delightful that the applause was continuous and unending!

Compared to Qin Yulu's performance of 'Starry Sky Love,' Ling Shuya and Zhou Yuyan's rendition of 'With You For Life' was even more passionate.

Thereupon, once the song ended, the applause simply wouldn't stop!

After the singing of Qin Yulu, Ling Shuya, and Zhou Yuyan, the subsequent students were all looking forward to the so-called special guest because Deng Yuanfeng had promised there would indeed be a famous domestic singer arriving!

But as time progressed, three-quarters of the evening had passed, and yet, that so-called special guest had still not appeared!

"What's going on, wasn't there supposed to be a big star?" Sun Yuze asked perplexedly from under the basketball hoop, looking up at the stage with a confused expression.

Zhan Bo then said, "There weren't any big stars in previous years, so how could there be one this time? Maybe it's just Deng Yuanfeng playing a joke on everyone!"

"Come on, that Deng Yuanfeng really lacks professionalism!" Sun Yuze said with disdain.

However, just after the stage act was over, the MC suddenly said with a smile, "Chairman Deng promised us today that there would be a diva gracing us with her presence. I think everyone must be very eager by now, so let's count down together, and I assure you, you'll see the superstar you've all been dreaming of descend from the sky!"

Hearing the MC's words, everyone was extremely surprised, but under the MC's lead in pumping up the atmosphere, everyone still began the countdown.

The entire venue started chanting, "Ten, nine, eight..."

When the countdown reached 'one,' the MC abruptly pointed up to the sky and exclaimed, "Look, she's coming!"

Following the direction pointed by the MC, everyone looked over to see a helicopter buzzing its way towards Minghai Academy!

"There's a helicopter!" many students shouted loudly.

Ye Xiao had seen it too and couldn't help feeling amused; Deng Yuanfeng had really gone all out for this autumn moon party, even hiring a helicopter, and who could this so-called diva be?

The helicopter slowly reached the airspace above the stage, and immediately, because of the propeller, the students below felt a strong gust of wind!

Then, at that moment, an opening appeared beneath the helicopter, with several steel ropes suspending a throne, and upon that throne was a woman of breathtaking beauty!

By now, everyone had seen the woman's face clearly, and the entire campus erupted once again!

"Liu Muyun! Liu Muyun! Liu Muyun!"

Yes, that person was none other than Liu Muyun.

Seeing Liu Muyun, Ye Xiao was also very surprised, because he truly had not expected the visitor to be Liu Muyun!

Just then, Liu Muyun, clad in a resplendent gown, was poised like a royal princess, looking down upon the crowd!

While everyone was excitedly looking up at Liu Muyun, Ye Xiao's gaze shifted away from her.

It wasn't that he didn't want to look at Liu Muyun, but with his sharp eyesight, he suddenly noticed an almost imperceptible tilt in Liu Muyun's throne.

Ye Xiao immediately looked up to see that one of the steel ropes was fraying down to its last strand, a clear sign that it was about to snap!
