After Zhang Tao finished singing, Huang Xing went on stage. The fans were filled with enthusiasm again.
[Ah, it's so good!]
[Everyone clap! Clap!]
[Huang Xing is done. It's our Binbin's turn next.]
[Come on, you'll win!]
The high popularity did not cause any awkward silence on the stage.
On the other hand, many people were worried. At that moment, how would Superman face it? If it was any other ordinary singer, their mentality would be affected and they might even cower.
In Ye Lingchen's lounge.
A staff member knocked on the door. "Superman Sensei, it's your turn after Sensei Binbin. Please get ready."
"Mm, got it." Ye Lingchen nodded lightly. He was wearing a mask and no one could see his face.
Su Mo bit her lip and said worriedly, "Mr. Superman, please drink some water. I'll bring you over in two minutes."
Ye Lingchen nodded and stopped the competition. He turned off the TV and the room became much quieter.
However, he could still hear some crazy screams coming from the stage in front of him. He touched his nose. At that moment, he felt a sense of tension that he had not felt for a long time.
At that moment, he was just a nameless contestant without any status. Could he win against such a popular little fresh meat?
If he wanted to win, he had to crush them with his strength. He had to convince the little fresh meat's fans!
Under such circumstances, how many people could do it? Probably none.
But … he could!
Su Mo said, "Mr. Superman, let's go."
"Mm." Ye Lingchen stood up and walked out the door.
When he opened the door, he found Feather, Sensei Luo, and Sensei Teng, who were eliminated in the previous round, standing at the door. Their eyes were filled with anticipation and encouragement.
Without saying a word, Ye Lingchen only nodded and walked toward the stage step by step.
The closer he got, the clearer the screams became.
Binbin was still singing.
Ye Lingchen had already reached the waiting area and was watching silently.
From his angle, he could see the audience and Binbin on stage. When he turned around, he could only see the shadows of Sensei Teng and the others.
That stage was nothing to others, but it meant a lot to the older generation of singers. That was because that stage originally belonged to them.
The entertainment industry was cruel. The law of survival of the fittest was vividly displayed here. But, they were not willing to leave the stage just like that.
Suddenly, a series of loud cheers and applause pulled Ye Lingchen back to reality.
"Binbin!"
"Binbin!"
"Binbin!"
The audience cheered, screamed, shouted, and applauded endlessly.
"Next... it's my turn!"
Ye Lingchen raised his head slightly and passed a music score to Su Mo. "Same old rules."
"Original … Original work?" Su Mo was stunned for a moment before replying with a trembling voice.
Ye Lingchen nodded. "Mm."
…
In the live broadcast room.
[Ahhh, Binbin sang so well.]
[Next, only Superman is left.]
[Sigh, how is he going to compete?]
[The outcome has already been decided. I'm not optimistic about it.]
[Actually, I think Superman's singing is very good, but …]
…
At the mentors' seats, Chen Xiaoyan clenched her fists tightly. Her eyes were filled with worry and anticipation as she looked at Ye Lingchen.
She was worried that the little fresh meat would affect Ye Lingchen, but on the other hand, she was confident that Ye Lingchen would win!
Lau Tianwang said, "It's that kid's turn."
"The influence of the little fresh meats is too great now. I really hope he's not the first to be eliminated," Jay Chou said.
"He's rearranged a song before this. I wonder what he'll sing this time. I'm really looking forward to it."
…
Under the watchful eyes of the audience, the door on the stage suddenly opened. The lights focused and Ye Lingchen walked out from the door.
There were no cheers, only a few stubborn claps. It was a stark contrast to when the little fresh meats first appeared.
Many people in the audience were exhausted. They cheered and clapped for the three little fresh meats and had already used up most of their energy. Some of them were even hoarse. How could they still have the energy to cheer for Ye Lingchen?
Su Mo's eyes were fixed on the stage. She clenched her fists tightly and was extremely anxious.
'Why isn't there any applause? Are these people that disrespectful?'
Ye Lingchen paced around and stood in the middle of the stage calmly.
Under the mask, his eyes were extremely calm. He was not affected by the crowd's reaction at all. His gaze was fixed on everyone in their seats, then he took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
The live stream that was previously flooded with messages also quietened down. The audience was all focused on the live stream.
Sensei Luo and Sensei Teng who were backstage sighed softly while Feather's eyes were filled with desolation.
Although he was prepared for it, he still felt suffocated when he saw the obvious gap between him and the little fresh meats.
The music started and the notes jumped slightly. It was very unique, causing everyone to be stunned.
The prelude was very special. It did not seem to be any of the songs in their memory.
The lights shone on Ye Lingchen. The lights of the entire stage were focused there. Holding the microphone with both hands, Ye Lingchen began to speak.
There was no high pitch, no rock and roll, no dancing, and no jumping around to the music.
His low and calm voice was as gentle as the melody, yet it carried a hint of melancholy.
"Wandering, on the road."
"Are you leaving, VIaVIa?"
"Fragile, proud."
"That was once my appearance."
At that moment, the audience was stunned, the guests were stunned, Sensei Teng was stunned, and the people watching the live stream were stunned!
A new song?
An original?
Ye Lingchen continued to sing in a low voice.
"Seething and restless."
"Where are you going, viavia.
"Enigmatic and silent."
"Are you really listening to the story?"
At that moment, an incomparably calm state of mind descended upon everyone's hearts. The impetuous feelings they had when facing the little fresh meats were all wiped away.
The next moment, Ye Lingchen's eyes slowly opened. His pitch also rose slightly, as though he was shouting with all his might. However, there was a tinge of sorrow in his voice, as though he had seen through everything. With a calm voice, he sang the most heart-wrenching song.
"I once crossed the mountains and the seas.
"I also passed through the sea of people.
"I once had everything.
"In the blink of an eye, they were scattered like smoke.
"I once lost, disappointed, and lost all my direction.
"Until I saw that ordinary was the only answer."
…
Hearing that, Sensei Teng, Sensei Luo, and many of the singers sitting in front of the TV had their eyes redden. From that song, they seemed to see themselves.
'I once danced on the stage. I once had crazy fans. I once had many, many things …'
Some of the older audience were also stunned. Tears flowed down uncontrollably. 'I once had many, many stories. I was proud and crazy. Are you really listening?'
