Chapter 113: Demon King's Coming Assessment

At around eight or nine in the evening, Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi had just walked to the elevator door of the hotel when a rapid cell phone ring suddenly rang.

I took out my cell phone and saw that it was Feng's mother calling me directly.

Feng Shiqi opened his eyes slightly, made a "hush" gesture, and then calmly answered the phone.

Five minutes later, the call was disconnected.

Bai Xingjian asked worriedly, "How is it? Did Auntie say anything?"

Just now, the two of them were discussing that the recent commotion was a bit too loud, and whether Feng's father and mother would find out that they were singing on the show together.

As a result, before the topic was over, Feng's mother called, and both of their hearts were frightened.

Feng Shiqi let out a long breath: "She just asked me if I would go home on the weekend and didn't mention anything else. Mom probably didn't notice anything."

After saying that, Feng Shiqi changed the subject and said, "The popularity of the show will continue to grow. We won't be able to keep it a secret for long. Sooner or later, it will be discovered. So, Jian, we should stop being so scared. And with the way we are doing now, I guess our parents won't have much to say."

Isn’t the reason why parents all over the world worry about their children’s future because they are afraid that their children will not have a good life in the future?
Feng's father and mother did not allow Feng Shiqi to enter the entertainment industry because they were afraid that their precious girl would be bullied in this big dye vat, be cheated of her body and mind, and even help others count money.

But only now, Feng Shiqi gradually discovered something.

That is, as long as you follow A Jian, the entertainment industry, this big melting pot, doesn't seem to be a big threat.

"Ah."

Bai Xingjian nodded. He and his cheap sister had been on the show for such a long time, and the matter was already settled. Even if Feng's father and mother were furious, they would not be able to change this fact.

So it is better to relax now and wait for this day to come calmly.

At most, it'll just be a beating and some physical pain. Why bother wasting your energy on it every day?

The two of them talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at the door of the room.

"Good night, Ajian, see you tomorrow." Feng Shiqi waved.

"Good night, Sister Qi."

Bai Xingjian responded with a smile.

After saying goodbye, they each went into their hotel rooms.

After washing up, Bai Xingjian lay down on the bed, called out the panel and started to add points to himself.

He completed quite a few system tasks these days, and the rewards were quite generous, so he accumulated a lot of attribute points.

In addition, Bai Xingjian planned to sing the song "Mountain and River Map" on the show this week, so he started adding points to the rap attribute in his special skills without hesitation.

Then, the rap attribute changes from——

【(Music) Rap: C (24/30)】

became--

【(Music) Rap: B (1/40)】

【Lucky Wheel +1】

[Attribute points: 16]

Bai Xingjian did not open the lucky wheel immediately, but added all the remaining attribute points to the basic attributes of breath and pronunciation.

Then, these two attributes become——

[(Basic) Breath: D (18/20)]

【(Basic) Pronunciation: D (18/20)】

"We are only two attribute points short of each other, and then we can get two more lucky wheels."

Bai Xingjian smiled happily. He felt that he was very strong now. With a little practice, singing "Mountain and River Map" should not be a problem.

In a good mood, he opened the lucky wheel obtained by upgrading his rap attribute.

Then I discovered that this time the big turntable was a little different from the previous ones.

虽然依旧是16处扇形区域，但有了颜色，而且还是3金、6红、4蓝、3白的比例。

The content corresponding to the gold color cannot be seen, the red ones are all blind boxes of works, and the blue and white ones are attribute points or attribute points of special skills, with values ​​ranging from 1 to 15.

"As the level gets higher, do the rewards on the turntable become richer?"

Bai Xingjian murmured something and started turning the turntable.

The turntable started moving, and gold, red, blue and white each passed by the pointer at the top.

Finally, the gold color stayed at the top, in the direction pointed by the pointer.

[Congratulations to the host for the big blind box of the masterpiece - "A Laugh in the Sea"*3! 】

what? !

Bai Xingjian was a little confused for a moment. He could understand "A Laugh in the Sea", but what was the situation with "A Laugh in the Sea"*3?
Bai Xingjian opened the relevant documents and started reading, and then he understood everything at a glance.

"A Laugh in the Ocean"*3 has Cantonese version, Mandarin version and rap version.

It's basically the same as his "Above the Moon", with edited version, mentor chorus version, complete version and symphony version.

“No wonder it’s called a big work blind box, it turns out there are three songs in one blind box.”

Bai Xingjian laughed in silence, imported the relevant files of the three songs into the computer, then got up and started listening.

The song "A Laugh in the Ocean" is not a simple one, he must listen to it carefully.

……

The next morning, the weather was clear.

On a flight from Beijing to Linjiang City.

Wen Suxi and her agent He Yu were chatting leisurely.

"According to the program team's requirements, they want you to face off against Fenghuang Yufei from Lin Qingying's team."

He Yu was browsing Weibo on a tablet.

On the Internet, some of the grievances and disputes between Wen Suxi, Zheng Wei, and Yehua Entertainment have also been brought up again.

In order to attract traffic, various marketing accounts and media bloggers began to set the pace.

"That's right, it's just a fledgling group, and they are artists under the guidance of old acquaintances, which is quite interesting."

Wen Suxi yawned and smiled.

She didn't care much about the arrangements made by the program team, and even felt expectant.

Because she actually wanted to see what Bai Xingjian would look like offline.

If it weren't for the company's publicity and promotion, this guy's song "In the Name of the Father" might have actually surpassed her "Hidden Light" on the charts.

The "Trouble Maker" that has been all over the Internet these days was also created by this guy.

Therefore, Wen Suxi was quite curious about Bai Xingjian.

"Are you really planning to sing "Hidden Light" on the show?" He Yu asked.

"Ah."

Wen Suxi nodded. "The current sales of this song are already very good. So many fans are buying it. This can be considered as some benefits given back to the fans."

The song "Hidden Light" is still in the sales stage. If this song is sung on the show at this time, it will definitely have some impact on sales.

Because the songs of "New Era of Heavenly Group" released on the Xinghuo Music platform can be listened to for free for two weeks, and then converted to VIP listening, or after spending two yuan to purchase, you can listen to them unlimitedly.

"Hidden Light" is a relatively quiet song, and the live version will not change much. In addition, Wen Suxi's singing skills are comparable to a "walking CD", so there will not be much difference between the live version and the studio version.

By then, there may be many viewers who prefer the live version of "Hidden Light".

After all, songs sung live by singers can still be quite charming as long as they don't keep changing the pitch like Sister Lei.

"That's good too."

He Yu smiled and nodded, "I just wonder if Bai Xingjian and the others will sing "In the Name of the Father"."

"probably not."

Wen Suxi said: "'In the Name of the Father' is a solo single. If a female voice appears in this song, it will destroy the mood of the song. Bai Xingjian has a high level of attainment in music and he will definitely understand this."

He Yu felt the same way when he heard this, and sighed, "Oh, how come Zheng Wei's luck is so good?"

……

Studio scene.

The live broadcast will start tomorrow, and Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi have arrived here early to prepare for the final rehearsal.

Just seeing the big drums that almost filled the entire stage, Bai Xingjian couldn't help but look surprised.

"Sister Wei, you really managed to get these things?" Bai Xingjian said in surprise.

During the rehearsal yesterday, he only mentioned it briefly, but he didn't expect it to be realized.

"What's this?"

Looking at the surprised Bai Xingjian, Zheng Wei raised the corners of his mouth: "You are the group that will compete with Wen Suxi, and it's not just me. The program team also attaches great importance to your stage, so this is not just my credit."

"So that's how it is." Bai Xingjian said with a smile, "Thank you so much."

Zheng Wei shrugged helplessly. She was used to Bai Xingjian's politeness. "Hurry up and rehearse. Your movements on the stage are a bit complicated this time, so you have to pay more attention."

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi nodded, and after the staff were ready, they walked towards the stage.

Time just passed during the rehearsal.

Soon, it was the day for the ninth live broadcast of "The New Era of Heavenly Group".

At noon, as soon as the live broadcast room opened, countless netizens flocked in.

"Sofa!"

"Suxi Suxi!"

"Cheer for Sister Suxi!!!"

"It seems like there are a lot of big-name stars in this episode. Is the trailer released by the show real?"

"Of course it's true! Ohashi, Momono, Mikami, Naka, Kaede..." "666!"

The barrage of comments was bustling, the camera turned, and Sanshui, wearing a suit, arrived as promised.

"Welcome everyone to watch "New Era of Heavenly Group" sponsored by Jialan Organic Milk and co-hosted by Xinghuo Short Video and Mango TV. I am the host Tang Miao..."

On the stage illuminated by brilliant lights, Sanshui delivered his opening remarks in an eloquent manner.

Then, amid warm applause and cheers from the audience, the five mentors came on stage one by one and took their seats in the mentor seats.

Today, four new seats were added next to the mentor seat, which are the "Devil's Seats" prepared for the flying guests of this program.

"Today, our program welcomes four new friends. I believe everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time."

Sanshui put on a smile on his face: "Now, let's welcome the first guest, Li Zijun!"

A straight figure walked out from the stage passage, and a young and handsome face shone brightly under the light.

"Wow! So handsome!"

“Husband, husband!!!”

"Holy crap! Is it really Li Zijun?! The production crew is really rich!"

"Not bad, not bad. Today I watched the live broadcast for nothing."

The audience at the scene kept screaming, and the barrage of comments in the live broadcast room began to fill the screen.

Li Zijun, the runner-up of the last season of "I Am a Singer", is a very popular male singer nowadays. He has only been in the industry for a few years and is still very young.

But he has good singing skills, is handsome, and has a natural sense of humor, which has attracted him countless fans, especially girls.

Just listen to the screams of the female audience here and you will know that the situation is almost the same as when Gu Zetao appeared.

Li Zijun came to Sanshui and introduced himself to the audience.

Sanshui then cue him: "Zijun recently posted a Weibo post, and the content seems to be about reading. In the past, everyone felt that you are a person who likes reading through your music, so did you get inspiration for writing songs from books this time?"

"Maybe."

Li Zijun raised the microphone and said: "Reading can help you understand people, the world, and wisdom. Getting inspiration for writing songs is only a very small part of it."

Sanshui nodded, agreeing with his statement, and the audience and netizens in the live broadcast room were also listening attentively.

Li Zijun continued: "We can gain a lot through reading."

"After all, as the ancients said, everything is in books..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience burst into laughter.

Even Sanshui was amused by Li Zijun's sudden remark.

"I was listening to him very carefully, but he suddenly said something in English?"

"As expected of a "little expert who loves jokes", he's really good at it."

"A comedian who let the singer bury the jokes!"

The audience was laughing, netizens in the live broadcast room were discussing, but Li Zijun continued to speak seriously as if no one was around.

……

"Okay! Let's welcome the second guest who will be sitting in the Demon King's seat. She is... He Ziling!"

With Sanshui's emotional voice, a beautiful woman with fair skin and wearing a college-style shirt dress appeared on the stage.

He Ziling, who was a member of an early idol girl group, had good professional skills. However, after the girl group disbanded, she went solo and was half-dead. Among the flying guests who arrived today, her status is the smallest.

After a brief introduction and interaction, the third guest, Wen Suxi, arrived.

“The real big shot is here!”

"This one is the real big devil!"

"Of course not! Su Xi is the woman who will soon surpass Lin Qingying and become the youngest queen of the Chinese pop music scene!"

"Isn't she not a diva yet? Don't call her hot just because she's about to become one!"

"What? Are you not convinced?"

Wen Suxi's appearance completely ignited the emotions of the audience and netizens in the live broadcast room.

Although I knew she would be on the show, my emotions were naturally different when I saw her in person.

Wen Suxi greeted the mentors and guests on her way to the Demon King's seat.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was very good.

At this time, the last guest, Wang Feng, came on stage.

"Fuck! Wang Feng? It's actually Wang Feng?"

"Oh my god! The production team is so damn rich! They even invited the king of rock and roll?!"

"No one should be competing with him for his hot search today, right?"

"My mother asked me why I was kneeling to watch the show. I said Wang Feng was here, and then my mother knelt down too."

"Sure enough, the program team's funding is only enough for Wang Feng to be a guest for one episode!"

"The popular rock star, you think!"

The appearance of Wang Feng instantly made the atmosphere in the studio explode. The barrage in the live broadcast room filled the screen like snowflakes, and the number of people online was also growing at a terrifying rate.

"There's something to watch today! I just wonder if Wang Feng brought his band with him."

“That’s definitely true!”

"If a whole band really came, it would be really bullying!"

"Hahaha, why else would this segment be called 'The Devil's Coming'?"

"The real big devil!"

……

"Alright! All the 'Demon Kings' have arrived. Next is the Demon King selection phase. Please invite all the combinations of the four mentor teams to come to the stage."

Sanshui's cheerful voice rang out.

Soon, the only thirteen groups left in the show all came onto the stage.

"First, please invite Wen Suxi, who took the initiative to assess Lin Qingying's team, to choose the assessment combination."

Sanshui faced the Demon King's seat and made a "please" gesture.

Wen Suxi picked up the microphone and said, "Then let's go with the Phoenix Flying Group."

There was an uproar from the audience.

“It is indeed so!”

“This is what I want to see!”

"Why do I feel like there are too many grudges in Fenghuang Yufei?"

"Today it's a double grudge!"

“How come you see?”

"One is the grudge with Fenghuang Yufei's agent, and the other is the grudge over the sales of Yoyo's "In the Name of the Father" and Wen Suxi's "Hidden Light."

……

"Okay! Please invite Fenghuang Yufei to step out." Sanshui said.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi stepped forward from Lin Qingying's team.

Seeing this, the members of Gu Zetao's team next door felt inexplicably happy.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi do have some advantages when facing these groups, but what about when facing Wen Suxi?

I'm afraid their advantage no longer exists?

Today, Fenghuang Yufei will definitely lose!
"Next, please invite Li Zijun, who is in charge of assessing Gu Zetao's team, to select the assessment combination."

Li Zijun smiled as he looked at the people in Gu Zetao's team and said, "Anyone please stand up."

The audience was in an uproar again, especially the female audience, who kept screaming.

"How to say?"

"Are you going or are we going?"

"Whatever, let's stand up together and let him choose."

The members of Gu Zetao's team talked a lot, and then all three groups stood up.

Li Zijun smiled and pointed: "I would choose GoldenCold."

Then, Wang Feng, who was responsible for assessing Xu Wenzhou's team, chose the Black Tiger Band.

He Ziling chose the September Morning combination from the Bird and Fish team.

"All the demon kings have finished selecting their test subjects. Next, I will announce the detailed rules of the Demon King Advent Test Competition."

Sanshui spoke with great enthusiasm.

The rules are actually very simple. The Demon King and the group being assessed will perform on stage in turn, and then the 51 media judges on site will vote.

If the number of votes for the group being assessed is higher than that of the Demon King, then the group has successfully passed the assessment and advanced to the top ten of "New Era of Heavenly Group".

If you fail to pass the Demon King's assessment, you will fail to advance to the top ten and will compete with the other 9 groups for the remaining spots in the top ten.

"What the hell? Three groups are going to be eliminated today?"

"No way?"

"According to this rule, will all the combinations of a certain mentor team be eliminated directly?"

"How is that possible! Now in every mentor team, there are one or two people who are the backbone of the team, right?"

The audience was talking about it, and Sanshui continued, "The rules have been announced. Please welcome the first group of demons, He Ziling and September Morning."
