When Bai Xuan returned to the VIP seats, she was surrounded by congratulatory voices.
She glanced at Lu Xue and saw the latter's gloomy expression, and she could not help but feel more and more happy.
At this time, she became the center of the crowd. To be able to cultivate a Top Beauty was the highest goal of every brothel mother. Now, her goal was achieved, and her dream was reflected into reality.
At this time, there would be no more changes.
With the blessing of a millennium poem, Hua Xiangrong became the Top Beauty of this Top Beauty Competition without any controversy.
Liu Chenglong, the manager of the Musical House, was said to be busy, so he did not appear in person to announce the result as previously announced.
But it was no longer important. After combining the three scores, Hua Xiangrong's screen finally ranked first. Several celebrities in the VIP seats and the three old leaders of the Musical House announced the result together.
When Hua Xiangrong, in a snow-white gauze dress, once again walked from the backstage to the main stage, the scene of the Musical House was stirred.
Countless people were cheering, hoping that Hua Xiangrong could perform again, but they were doomed to be disappointed. In the face of the supreme glory of Liufang Street and the cheers of thousands of admirers in front of the stage, her expression was always the same. She smiled quietly and saluted to thank them.
Tonight's dance was just to repay Mom Bai Xuan and the Holy House.
From then on, her dance was only for him to watch.
Then, no one knew who took the lead, in the crowd, someone shouted another name —
"Li Mu!"
"Li Mu! Li Mu! Li Mu! "
"Excellent in both poetry and martial arts, the immortal among people, Li Mu!"
Countless people shouted Li Mu's name, hoping that the poetry genius, who turned the tide with a millennium poem at the last moment and brought this Top Beauty Competition to the climax, could show up and appear on the main stage with Hua Xiangrong.
Moreover, in the excitement, the crowd constantly shouted Li Mu's various names.
"Poetry Fairy Li."
"Poetry Fairy!"
"Taibai County Magistrate!"
"Li Taibai, Li Taibai!"
In the end, all the shouts turned into the five words "Li Taibai, the Poetry Whiz", which were overwhelming like a tsunami, surging on the entire Liufang Street of the Musical House. This scene was even crazier and more enthusiastic than the previous cheers for Hua Xiangrong to win the championship.
However, they were disappointed again.
Because Li Mu did not show up until Hua Xiangrong left the stage.
He did not cater to the interests of these 'spectators'.
"I'm walking the path of strength, not an idol."
Li Mu said to himself proudly in his heart.
Thus, the Top Beauty Competition came to an end.
Hua Xiangrong was the champion, Lu Hongxiu was the second, Xue Rui was the third, and Si Yuhua was the fourth. This was the final ranking.
However, just like how people remembered the top scorer in every college entrance examination on Earth, in this Top Beauty Competition, people obviously only remembered Hua Xiangrong. Lu Hongxiu, the second place, was destined to be just a supporting role. In the future, every time the name of Lu Hongxiu was mentioned, people would think of Hua Xiangrong, the beautiful dance and the millennium poem.
After the climax of the segment, all kinds of noises and discussions did not subside for a long time.
However, the crowd on Liufang Street of the Musical House did not disperse with the end of the Top Beauty Competition. Instead, there were more and more people.
Because the main event had just begun.
After the Top Beauty Competition, it was time for another segment that attracted countless people's attention —
The auction of female slaves.
Many female slaves who had been carefully advertised and packaged by the Musical House would be auctioned in the next segment.
Among them, the most famous ones were the unconscious wife and daughter of the State-revitalizing General Tang Chong, and the female slaves of the Wolf Warriors from the prairie. There were many beautiful women, but the beautiful women with high status were undoubtedly like fatal poisons, which were more likely to attract countless people's attention. In addition, there were also young beauties from the families of officials who were in distress collected by the Musical House from all over the world, and they would be auctioned on the main stage.
In many people's view, even this Top Beauty Competition was actually just a warm-up for this auction. After all, no matter how beautiful the Top Beauty was, it was just a reflection in the mirror and the moon in the water. It was difficult to enter and only belonged to a few dignitaries. As for these female slaves, if they were lucky, they might be able to buy one.
Moreover, such a large-scale female slave auction could only be held once every three to five years.
This was the real highlight of the show.
Therefore, after the Top Beauty Awarding Ceremony, which was not complicated and even a little sloppy, the arrangement on the main stage began to be rearranged.
The tents of the major brothels in the backstage were removed, and new tents, as well as iron cages and flower carriages, were led from the residence of the Musical House and placed behind the main stage according to the pre-set order.
The warriors of the Musical House cooperated with the sergeants of the government organ in the eastern city to guard the entire main stage, and no strangers were allowed to approach. Among them, there were also dozens of powerful super-class masters at the Master Realm, in case someone made trouble or something else happened.
At the same time, the staff of the Musical House, according to the list filed in advance and the number of people who had paid the deposit to participate in the auction, began to issue the bidding signs in an orderly manner. Only those who got the signs could participate in the bidding after the auction officially began. Otherwise, if so many people on the scene shouted a few times, the whole auction would become a joke.
As early as before the auction, the filing work had been completed, and at this time, it was only the issuance of the signs.
Those who could get the signs were either rich or noble, because ordinary people could not afford the deposit of 100,000 gold.
Most of the celebrities and literati who had originally sat in the VIP seats had left and moved to other places, because at this time, the VIP seats had become the area of the rich guests who participated in the auction. Those rich people who got the signs, under the guidance of the young and beautiful maids of the Musical House, sat in their respective seats, talked excitedly, greeted each other, and sounded each other out about the objects to be auctioned.
These people were all famous big shots in the Chang 'an government and even in the surrounding prefectures, and they were all rich and powerful.
Of course, these people were not the top VIPs in tonight's female slave auction.
The top VIPs who really had wealth, power, status, and strength were arranged in the closed and extremely private mobile pavilions built around the main stage. These pavilions were closer to the main stage than the VIP seats, and their positions were higher, so they had a clear observation angle, and they could observe the appearance and temperament of the female slaves who were about to be auctioned on the stage from the best angle.
And outsiders could not know the background of the top VIPs inside through the pavilions, so it was convenient for some distinguished people who were not suitable to show their faces to participate in the auction.
From all aspects, it was obvious that the Musical House's grasp of the details was extremely exquisite.
Even Li Mu, a person from Earth, could give a high score to this commercial planning activity, because Liu Chenglong, the manager of the Musical House, was really a talent in this aspect.
…
…
In the private room of the Fairy House, Li Mu reappeared, along with Hua Xiangrong, Xin 'er, and Bai Xuan, who all appeared in the private room.
Outside the building, there were waves of voices shouting "Li Taibai", which did not disperse.
The maid Xin 'er was full of joy and excitement.
"Young Master is really amazing. A poem can change the situation." She was not as knowledgeable about poetry as Hua Xiangrong, Bai Xuan, and others, so she did not have much literary attainment, so she felt it was very amazing and incredible that Li Mu won the Top Beauty Crown for her miss with a poem.
In fact, a maid like her in the Musical House had a very miserable fate.
If she met a better master, she could still relax for a few years. When her master redeemed her freedom or got married, she could follow her master to be a servant girl, which was not bad. If her master had a bad fate, the final fate of the maid was to become a low-level prostitute in the Musical House and live a miserable life.
Xin 'er's fate was relatively good.
Before, Hua Xiangrong and Li Mu had made it clear that they would redeem Xin 'er, so at this time, Xin' er naturally regarded herself as a servant girl. Anyway, she would go with her miss to the dowry, so the little girl was full of fantasy.
So was Bai Xuan. The shock in her heart had not completely dissipated.
At that time, she was almost completely desperate, because the rating of the celebrities reflected the official will of the Musical House, and there was a big figure behind the scenes controlling. From this point of view, it was impossible for Hua Xiangrong to win the first prize, so Bai Xuan had no hope. However, Li Mu's talent was really beyond the ordinary scope. A millennium poem came out of his mouth as if he was drinking water or eating. He was simply a monster.
"How on earth is such a talented young man born?"
"How can there be such a monster in the world?"
"Is he really the reincarnation of an immortal?"
Bai Xuan had been completely shocked by Li Mu's talent. In her life, she did not know how many scenes and how many heroes she had met, but almost no one could compare with Li Mu. Even the current Young Master Wen Zongbin of the Western Qin Empire seemed to be inferior to him.
If she were a dozen years younger, Bai Xuan swore that she would definitely follow Li Mu at all costs, even as a servant or a maid.
"What a pity."
"When I was born, my husband was not born. When my husband was born, I was already old. Now, I am already a withered flower."
The table was full of delicious food and wine. Li Mu sat down and said, "Haha, make yourself at home. Everyone, sit down. We are here to congratulate Hua 'er for winning the title of Top Beauty with a stunning dance. Madam Bai also got what she wanted. Let's drink to our hearts' content." He raised his glass.
Hua Xiangrong's face was full of gratitude and admiration.
Right now, she really felt as if she was in a dream and that it wasn't real.
This feeling was not because she won the title of Top Beauty. In fact, the title of Top Beauty was not important to her now. She just wanted to repay Madam Bai. This feeling really came from Li Mu's talent and ability. He was like a celestial being, not a human being.
Sitting beside Li Mu, Hua Xiangrong's eyes were glued to Li Mu.
She had a feeling like she was in a dream.
Several people raised their glasses, and the atmosphere was warm.
Li Mu said, "Hua 'er, I heard from Madam Bai that you once made a wish in the Qingfeng Temple that one day, you must restore your real name when you leave the Musical House. Tonight, the Top Beauty won the title of Top Beauty to repay Madam Bai's protection and completely cut off everything in the Musical House. Well, from now on, you will restore your real name. From then on, there will be no Hua Xiangrong in the world, only Shangguan Yuting. What do you think?"
"Ah … I'll listen to Young Master." Hua Xiangrong was stunned and then burst into tears of joy.
-----
Yesterday, Li Mu announced the update time and the number of chapters on his official WeChat account. Maybe some brothers who didn't follow the official account didn't see it. He was too busy in the afternoon and had no time to leave, so he couldn't ask for leave in the book.
Today, there were two chapters, and the last one was at about 11 o 'clock in the evening.
