The Clown had left the stage.
The next contestant was about to take the stage.
However, the audience was still discussing in amazement.
"Zhao Qiquan is only so-so!"
"Who's the real Hokkien singer here?"
"The Clown sings much better than Flowing Time!"
"Yeah, I wouldn't know if I didn't compare myself to him, but I was shocked by the comparison!"
"So it turns out that Zhao Qiquan's title as the number one Hokkien singer is just an empty title. It's not that he's good at singing, but that there's very little competition in this industry. Not many people can sing Hokkien songs, but if any of those famous singers were to sing, any one of them would be better than him!"
"That's not it either. It's mainly because The Clown is too amazing!"
"Right, this guy is so amazing. How can he sing everything!"
"Pop songs, rock songs, Two-people Zhuan songs, songs without lyrics, songs with lyrics, Cantonese songs, Northeastern songs, Mandarin songs, Hokkien songs, he can sing them all!"
"Why does a singing show sound like a martial arts film? This Clown is really proficient in all kinds of martial arts! Hahahaha! I'm dying of laughter! "
"How satisfying!"
"This episode is so exciting!"
"This is what a professional singing competition should be. The Voice pales in comparison!"
"It's Sunset Glow's turn!"
"Right, Sunset Glow is also a fierce person today!"
Dong Shanshan smiled and said, "Alright, let's hand the stage over to Sunset Glow."
Sunset Glow went onstage.
The audience gave her face and immediately fell silent.
Sunset Glow nodded in thanks. Then she looked at the band and nodded to indicate that she was ready.
In the second round of the competition, The Clown and Sunset Glow actually did not have much hope. It would be very difficult for them to compete with Flowing Time for the title of Masked King and there was an 80% chance that it would fall to Flowing Time. This was because Flowing Time was a Hokkien singer and because there were so many Hokkien audience members in the studio. However, The Clown's performance of "Fight Hard to Win" was too ruthless. It turned the situation around and directly cut off Flowing Time's chances of becoming the Masked King. Moreover, with two Hokkien songs performed, Sunset Glow, the only person to sing a Mandarin song, gained a slight advantage. This was because the audience's curiosity for novelty had lessened and the hundred-plus Hokkien audience members' votes were split between The Clown and Flowing Time. With this subtle change, Sunset Glow became the singer with the highest chance of becoming the Masked King!
"Ask me."
"Why have you never lowered your head?"
"Ask me."
"Why are you never flustered?"
After listening to just two sentences, the VIP seats revealed a surprised expression! Was Sunset Glow on steroids today? This state was too good. It seemed that she had really gradually become familiar with this stage. She was no longer nervous, and she had also let go. This was the so-called good preparation, right? No wonder even Petal Shower was defeated by her in the first round!
When the song ended, the audience applauded!
Many people were moved by the quietness and exquisiteness of Sunset Glow's singing. This song was originally a rock song, a song that was famous for a male rock band. In the end, it was adapted by Sunset Glow, and she sang it quietly with a woman's voice. Be it the audience or the guests, no one had ever heard anyone sing this song like this before. It was very fresh, and they were all shocked!
The audience was in a dilemma!
"This is a difficult choice!"
"Yeah, who should I vote for?"
"They're all too powerful!"
"Sunset Glow is amazing! I didn't pay much attention to her in the past, but I didn't expect her to be such a good singer! "
"Sunset Glow should win!"
"Yeah, her chances of becoming the Masked King are too high!"
"Her performance of the song was so good!"
"The Clown seemed like he was going to perish together with Flowing Time today. The two of them fought to the death, and the winner was decided. But Sunset Glow should be the one to reap the benefits!"
"Let's see what the judges have to say first."
"I haven't decided who to vote for yet."
Dong Shanshan went onstage.
She also invited The Clown and Flowing Time onstage.
Dong Shanshan smiled and said, "Wow, I had a great time watching today's competition." She gestured at her back. "This is the first time I've realized that listening to a song live can really make you sweat." Looking at the guessing panel, she said, "I wonder what the judges think. Teacher Zhang Xia?"
Zhang Xia smiled. "Actually, I sweated too."
Dong Shanshan had a smile on her face. "You too?"
Zhang Xia nodded and said, "When I listened to Sunset Glow sing, I enjoyed sweating. But when I listened to The Clown sing, I was so shocked that I broke out in a sweat!"
Everyone laughed!
Indeed, a lot of people were stunned earlier. No one had expected that he would start singing in fluent Hokkien. At that time, even the Miracle Wheels band's live performance teachers were stunned. This was because The Clown did not sing the lyrics during the rehearsal, so they all thought that it was going to be a Mandarin song!
Zhang Xia thought for a moment. "If I were to vote, I would vote for Sunset Glow today. She's really great!"
Sunset Glow bowed. "Thank you, Teacher!"
Chen Guang smiled and said, "I'm most impressed by The Clown today. I really didn't expect him to sing this song, but if we're talking about singing skills and exquisiteness, I would probably vote for Sunset Glow."
The Clown nodded.
Sunset Glow bowed again. "Thank you."
Yao Jiancai chuckled and said, "I'll vote for The Clown. I can't give my professional opinion, but I think that 'Strive Hard to Win' is too good!"
The judges expressed their opinions.
Four of them favored Sunset Glow, while two of them favored The Clown.
Next to them, Flowing Time seemed to have been left out in the cold. Only Wang Zhuishu, who he had known for a long time, praised him, but that was just for show. The others did not even mention it. Actually, this was the best outcome for Flowing Time. Be it the singing skills, lyrics, or melody of The Clown's Hokkien song, Flowing Time knew that he was far inferior to him. If the judges really analyzed it from a professional point of view, Flowing Time would lose even more face. As the number one Hokkien singer, he would be even more embarrassed!
Then, the voting began!
The votes for the three contestants kept changing!
The audience's exclamations and expressions kept changing!
"Ah, The Clown has gone up!"
"Sunset Glow is in first place!"
"Give it to Flowing Time!"
"Aiyo, let's vote!"
"Sunset Glow!"
"The Clown!"
The voting ended!
But Zhang Ye did not even turn around to look. This was because he did not come here with the mindset of fighting for the title of Masked King. No one could stay at the top of the rankings forever, so he had to give others a chance. Moreover, he was keeping a low profile right now so that he could prepare for the grand finals. Otherwise, if he overdrew his popularity and attention and brought out all his trump cards, what would happen to the grand finals?
So he was in a good state of mind. This fellow had come here today to abuse Flowing Time, and his mission had been accomplished!
However, when the voting ended, he realized that the audience looked a little stunned. Dong Shanshan was still not announcing the results!
What was going on?
Did something happen?
Sunset Glow won, right?
The audience was stunned.
The program team was stunned.
The host was also stunned.
"Uh."
"This …"
Zhang Ye could not help but turn around to have a look. He was also slightly taken aback!
Flowing Time: 36 votes!
The Clown: 232 votes!
Sunset Glow: 232 votes!
It was a tie!
The votes for The Clown and Sunset Glow were exactly the same!
Dong Shanshan chuckled and looked at Hu Fei and the director team offstage. "This is the first time something like this has happened. We didn't expect that there would be a tie, so I'll have to seek the director team's opinion."
In the audience.
The program team's staff gathered together to discuss the matter.
Flowing Time was the one who was suffering the most. His vote count was too low, so low that even he could not bear to watch it. It was simply too tragic to watch. Who cares who wins? Hurry up and end this. Why do you want me to stand onstage with you all? Are you trying to make fun of me? Can't you just hurry up!
The audience:
"Flowing Time has lost so badly!"
"Pfft, who asked him to start provoking The Clown without restraint a few days ago? In the end, he ended up with this result? And he even wants to seek justice for Li Yu? I'm feeling embarrassed for him! "
"The winner takes all!"
"Flowing Time is no match for The Clown!"
"Yeah, it doesn't matter how many years he practices. They're not on the same level as each other."
"I really didn't expect it to be a tie."
"I thought that Sunset Glow would definitely win."
"Yeah, the majority of the judges also thought that Sunset Glow would win."
Actually, Zhang Ye was not prepared for this. He also thought that Sunset Glow would definitely be crowned the Masked King for this episode, but he did not expect that the audience would give him so much face. Zhang Ye wanted to tell them to stop discussing it and just give this episode to Sunset Glow. He would just forfeit, but he definitely could not say that out loud. That would be disrespectful to Sunset Glow. He had deliberately lost the last time because he was targeting Li Yu. But he couldn't do that this time. Sunset Glow would definitely not agree to it!
A few minutes later.
The results of the discussion were out.
Dong Shanshan received the program team's decision from her earpiece. "Yes, yes, alright, I understand." Then she smiled and said, "As the Masked King in every episode has a higher value and will also affect the order of appearance in the grand finals, the program team has decided to add an additional round!"
The audience got excited when they heard that!
"Wow!"
"An additional round?"
"Haha, that's great!"
"There's going to be something to listen to again!"
"I bet on Sunset Glow to win!"
"I bet on The Clown! That person is really unfathomable! "
Dong Shanshan looked at the two contestants. "What do the two of you think?"
Sunset Glow was in excellent form today and had a strong desire to compete. She glanced at The Clown and smiled. Then she nodded and said, "I have no objections!" It looked like she also wanted to see who was better than The Clown.
When Zhang Ye heard that, he smiled and said, "I have no objections either."
