Chapter 287: Chapter 258: Unexpected Results

Wu Mu didn’t mind, and Lu Yao quickly shifted her attention as well.

She was very curious, "Xiao Wu, who were you singing that song for just now?"

"Was it for Sister Mo Mo, Sister Qing, or me?" she asked, blinking her eyes.

Wu Mu looked at her strangely, "Guessing it’s for Teacher Mo Mo and Sister Qing is one thing, but why would you guess yourself?"

Lu Yao huffed, "I want to listen too, why can’t it be for me?"

But you never mentioned it to me before the competition, and shouldn’t you know the things you’ve experienced?

Wu Mu grumbled to himself.

Considering that Lin Qingyue was not a celebrity either, he didn’t spill the beans and just glossed over it.

After Wu Mu’s performance, Yue Li was next to take the stage.

Yue Li’s expression was somewhat bitter.

Being lined up after Wu Mu easily affected her performance.

This time around, her song choice overlapped a bit with Wu Mu’s; she chose a song that didn’t show off vocal skills but required emotional delivery.

Originally, she thought that in the first round, everyone would pick explosive songs to showcase their vocal prowess. Knowing she couldn’t compete with the likes of Cai Wanhai and He Jie in vocal talent, let alone the foreign singers, she decided to take a different path and engage in an offbeat competition.

But who would have thought that Wu Mu would also choose a song that tugged at the heartstrings?

...Considering Wu Mu’s recent performance, she felt she had already lost halfway.

After Yue Li finished singing, the response was indeed lukewarm; the audience’s feedback was mediocre.

To make matters worse, the performer following Yue Li was Tsukishima Chizuru.

Tsukishima Chizuru’s music partner was pumping her up, "Tsukishima-chan, do your best!"

Yet Tsukishima Chizuru was still somewhat immersed in Wu Mu’s earlier performance, "How did Wu Mu-san do it? Why does it sound like there aren’t many techniques, but the infectiousness of the voice is just so powerful?"

Her music partner looked up at the sky, "That’s how Teacher Mu sings."

"Could it be... talent?"

Talent?

For the first time, Tsukishima Chizuru began to doubt whether she was really that talented.

However, Tsukishima Chizuru’s performance was still spectacular.

Just as Lu Yao’s strategist had predicted earlier, Tsukishima Chizuru had chosen a classic hit from a Blue Star anime to electrify the crowd.

Originally an artwork of vocal technique, it sounded really impressive combined with her somewhat ornate vocal timbre.

This performance was clearly a notch above Cai Wanhai’s and Yue Li’s.

Even He Jie, who performed after her, was completely outshined.

He Jie gave a standard performance.

Even he could feel that his ranking would definitely not surpass Tsukishima Chizuru, not to mention Wu Mu, whose ranking was still unknown.

He felt somewhat relieved inside, "Thank goodness I didn’t take the center spot."

Otherwise, with this performance of his, if he were in the center, he would have been waiting to get lambasted.

Originally, he was full of ambition before the competition, aiming to compete with the stars from Japan and South Korea.

After all, the program team said they wouldn’t invite the top-tier singers from the two countries but would prioritize fame.

So, before the competition, he was quite confident and readily agreed to the program team’s suggestion.

But after agreeing, he found out Wu Mu was also in the program...

Never mind, he better not go for that center spot. With someone like Wu Mu who loves to create a spectacle, his center position would have been just for show, and it’s unlikely he’d get much camera time over that guy.

And if he wouldn’t get much camera time, why bother with the center position when it comes with no benefits but all the responsibilities?

So, he decisively pushed it away.

Now, this decision couldn’t be more correct.

"Just let Wu Mu stand in the front; he likes doing this kind of stuff anyway," He Jie thought to himself.

After He Jie, there were only two South Korean singers left.

Yi Junxi was first, with a somewhat troubled expression.

Not only had he been called out by Wu Mu in public for not managing his fans properly.

But after watching Wu Mu’s performance... he realized this guy seemed pretty strong.

Yi Junxi sang one of his own Korean songs.

The song was a global hit, well-known in Hua Country, and often heard in the background of various videos.

Having the original artist himself come to sing it in the competition, regardless of quality, first of all, the excitement swelled to the max.

The last performer, Li Zhengxun, showed off his language skills by singing a French song.

After all seven contestants had finished singing, it was time for the scoring and ranking session.

And by that time, the live comments had already exploded.

"Wow, this show’s got something, stirring up opposition but the guest singers are really all masters."

"This is the most spectacular music variety show I’ve seen in years, any song here could steal the spotlight on another show."

"Just look at Cai Wanhai’s performance; in another show, it would likely secure at least the top two, but here it’s just a weak point."

"It seems our singers really can’t stand up to the competition; I thought that as a front-line singer, He Jie could at least grab one of the top spots, but his performance is not only outdone by Tsukishima Chizuru, but also Yi Junxi and Li Zhengxun seem better."

"Alas, that’s what happens when the music circle gets sloppy in Hua Country. Singing is so lucrative, with all the lip-syncing and autotuning making easy money, who’s willing to diligently polish their skills?"

The audience was thrilled, feeling that the show was not only gimmicky but genuinely impressive.

After discussing the show, the audience inevitably turned back to the debate over rankings.

"If we’re talking about technique, then it’s definitely Tsukishima Chizuru first, Yi Junxi second, Li Zhengxun third, but in terms of performance..." a viewer’s live comment cut off midway.
