“This is not a bad idea.” Hearing that, Lucifer nodded vigorously. “When the competition is over, Young Master can move the Bookstore over? I think it will get popular here.”

“En, I’ll think about it.” Hong Dali looked at the time. “Aiyaya, two hours have passed. Sister Nianwei is the 136th singer to appear. It seems we have to wait for another two hours…”

Since they were bored, Hong Dali showed some concern for the people around him. “Li Yang, how is your training getting along?”

Li Yang replied softly, “Not bad. Although I’m a little dumb. But with Geezer Wang’s teachings, I should have improved quite a bit.”

“En, that’s good. How about Brother Levis?” Hong Dali touched his chin. “Speaking of Brother Levis, I have not seen him for quite long.”

“Brother Levis has been practicing in the Thunder Battle Arena recently.” Li Yang was not worried about Levis at all. “His training progress is said to be very fast, and Miss Christina has been practicing at the Thunder Battle Arena at the moment. Brother Blood Demon is also at the Tower of Trials. I heard he has already passed level twenty-one, he’s very powerful.”

En, this bunch of guys improved quite a lot by themselves. Haha!

Then, Li Yang updated Hong Dali on his son, little Bai Hechou. “Young Master Little Bai Hechou has been playing at the Tower of Trials as well. I heard he had passed level twenty-four. He’s now at level twenty-five… En, he has not passed it yet.”

This rascal is quite capable.

Hong Dali beamed with delight. “En, I’ll take a look when I go back. Oh yes, the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass, let’s split it after the competition. It’s a waste not to use it.”

Jiang Qianxue sighed secretly. “This fellow, it’s no wonder everyone around him treats him like a treasure. He is never stingy with good things…” Sometimes, Jiang Qianxue really envied the lackeys around Hong Dali…

Yin Tianzong knew the people around Hong Dali very well. They were at Sing! Milky Way arena, after all. They might as well watch the competition. Yin Tianzong suddenly nudged Hong Dali and whispered. “Dali, quick look. The next contestant is Caroline, the singer that has more than 72 million support rate!”

Indeed, looking in the direction pointed by Yin Tianzong, the host was already on the stage. He paused for a while. After the audience quietened down, the host smiled and introduced the next singer. “So, ladies and gentlemen, please invite our next contestant, Miss Caroline. She will be singing this very beautiful song, ‘Eternal Time’! Let us welcome her!”

Hearing that, the audiences applauded loudly!

This Sing! Milky Way, there were only five people who were likely to win. Caroline was one of them!

To be able to achieve a support rate of 72 million in Sen Ling City, her performance would definitely not be too poor.

“Caroline is up! Haha, she is one of the singers whom I’m looking forward to watching the most. She’s beautiful and she sings well!”

“Caroline! I love you! Go for it!”

Countless audience members cheered for her. Soon, Caroline went on stage wearing a pale yellow princess gown.

As one of the singers who could potentially be the winner, Caroline’s stage was grand and extravagant!

She had a dance team of five hundred people and a large orchestra. Once her performance began, it was sure to attract everyone’s attention.

Soon, Caroline’s performance began.

“No wonder she’s one of the potential winners.” Felix nodded to himself. “Her voice is great and she selected her song well. I think I could give at least 95 points.”

Frank agreed. “En, there are not many problems. Wait and see Audition Stone’s evaluation.”

“This Caroline is not bad.” Claire did not have much of a bad impression of Caroline. In any case, her impression of Caroline was better than Li Nianwei—that was how people are. With one targeted enemy, it was easy to locate another person who was friendly.

Claire was like that.

She was angry with Li Nianwei for not respecting her. Hence, it was easier to develop positive feelings towards Caroline, whom she had never interacted with. But don’t underestimate this positive feeling. In such a competition, it was often a little difference that made the winner.

Moreover, because of what had happened, Li Nianwei’s scores given by the mentors had been deducted by 20%.

Soon, Caroline’s performance ended.

Everyone applauded enthusiastically and cheered for the champion in their hearts, the most popular Caroline!

At this time, the Audition Stone gave Caroline her final scores.

“Caroline. Pitch: 94 points, Tone: 95 points, Range: 95 points.”

One 94 points, two 95 points! Such results could already be the champion!

“Caroline, you are really, really amazing!” Mentor Felix was the first to stand up. He clapped his hands as he praised her. “You interpreted this song perfectly. I almost couldn’t find any flaws. Hence, for your performance, I’m giving… 100 points! Full points!”

“Thank you, Mentor.” Suppressing her excitement, Caroline put on her most indifferent look. She smiled faintly and exuded great confidence.

“I’m giving you 100 points as well.” Frank smiled and nodded. “You performed really, really well, no flaws at all.”

“You’re amazing, indeed.” Claire smiled. “100 points.”

“Same,” Dulles said. “From the start till now, I’m most satisfied with your performance. Do your best.”

“Thank you, thank you, mentors.” Caroline had started to tremble. The Audition Stone gave one 94 points, two 95 points. Four mentors gave her 100 points each! Such results were equivalent to announcing her, Caroline, as the champion of this competition!

Backstage in the rest room.

Caroline returned and saw Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin, who was sitting steadily. The corners of her lips turned up, revealing a victory smile.

So what if she had a support rate of 85 million? That was the past. Only the scores obtained on stage today could determine their ranking.

I, Caroline, will be the champion!

“Sister Nianwei,” Tang Muxin said softly. “This Caroline seemed to have achieved good results. No wonder I heard people say she is a strong opponent in this competition. She’s capable, indeed.”

“En. Actually,” Li Nianwei did not have too big a reaction. “those who are able to make it here should all be quite good. If they did not find trouble with us, my performance should be not bad as well, hehe.”

“That’s true.” Tang Muxin smiled. “This bunch of rascals gang up easily against one enemy. It’s a pity. Hehe.”

En, hooligans against Elemental revolving mages, they were looking for trouble.

Wouldn’t it be better if they competed fair and square…

…

Outside on the spectator stand.

“Dali, seems like things are troublesome.” Yin Tianzong frowned and touched his chin, then said in a deep voice, “This Caroline is indeed one of the most sought-after singers in the competition. She is leading in terms of scores now. If she gets more popular, it won’t be easier to go against her. The most important thing is that Sister Nianwei’s scores from the mentors will be deducted by 20%. The difference in score will become bigger.”

Hundred City Showdown, it was all about talent.

Backstage, they could try to outshine each other. But on stage, talent was what they were up against!

“En, she’s indeed good.” Hong Dali agreed with Yin Tianzong. “It’s different to be so good. Such high scores.”

“Dali, are you not anxious at all?” Jiang Qianxue could not sit still. “This Caroline’s score is too high. The song that you arranged for Sister Nianwei to sing, will she make it?”

It was no wonder Jiang Qianxue was so worried.

After all, in the competition, scores determined everything.

In the last segment, the match on support rate, the base was really too large. There was generally not much difference between each contestant. Hence, if one did not do as well as another, that could more or less have determined their final results.

“Don’t worry. I have confidence in Sister Nianwei!” Hong Dali was not worried at all.

He believed in Li Nianwei’s strength. Not long after, when Li Nianwei stood on the stage, whatever came after would be easy! That’s right, easy!

The song that Hong Dali wrote for Li Nianwei, together with her heavenly voice, was equivalent to cheating! A song that was absolutely cheating!

That would be out of everyone’s imagination! Especially with the special effects that Hong Dali had arranged… Hehehe. Tremble, commoners! Against our Sister Nianwei, you can only kneel down humbly!

“Will it really be okay?” Jiang Qianxue was unsure.

“Definitely!” Hong Dali nodded vigorously. “Every single person around me is absolutely trustworthy!”

“The rest of the competition is so-so.” Yin Tianzong took a deep breath. “I shall wait for Sister Nianwei to come up!”

Hence, these few people chit-chatted and occasionally listened to the contestants’ singing.

Until finally, it was Li Nianwei’s turn to sing!
