Chapter 61 Confidence
After GoldenCold, the groups took turns to perform on stage.

However, due to the deliberate sorting by the program team, the performances of these groups were rather mediocre, and the mentors and professional judges gave them low evaluations, and they did not receive many votes.

This situation continued until the Vertical and Horizontal Lines group came on stage.

This group consists of three boys in their twenties and is a pure rap group.

Their song "Letter from Afar" refreshed many audiences' perception of rap.

“So rap songs can be so heartwarming?”

“Without the swear words, the show of wealth, and the brainwashing repetition, Chinese rap is still very nice to listen to.”

“This is Chinese rap that’s suitable for the masses! It brings out the strengths of rap’s narrative and direct expression of one’s feelings, and is full of warmth and positive energy.”

Many listeners made such comments, and the mentors also expressed their own opinions and praise.

Finally, Zonghengxian achieved an excellent score of 624, temporarily ranking second after GoldenCold.

"Including the vertical and horizontal lines, there are already eight groups that have performed on stage, right? Judging from this momentum, it will be difficult for GoldenCold to surpass them in votes."

"Not only is it difficult to overtake them, even the second-place vertical and horizontal lines are nearly 70 votes behind them."

"Yeah, judging from GoldenCold's performance today, Phoenix Flying, Galaxy Girls, and Thorn Boys may not be able to compare to them."

"It's really unfair to let Xu Weiwen write the lyrics."

In the preparation room, many contestants were discussing the matter.

The groups appeared one after another, and it wasn't long before it was the turn of the Galaxy Girls.

"Come on, everyone."

"come on!"

Beside the Galaxy Girls, Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi cheered them on with a smile.

The five girls nodded, and Tang Tang smiled and waved: "Brother Bai, Sister Feng, wait for us to return triumphantly!"

After a brief encouragement, the Galaxy Girl set out on her journey.

In this live broadcast, they sang a previously released song. Although it was not quite relevant to the duet theme, it could still make it work.

After all, understanding the theme of a song largely depends on subjective judgment, and everyone has their own opinions.

The Xinghe Girls also performed very well, without any mistakes, and gave everyone a wonderful stage.

In the end, they received 657 votes. Although they failed to surpass GoldenCold, it can be said to be very good. They squeezed out the vertical and horizontal lines and temporarily ranked second.

War preparation room.

"They are simply cheating by asking such a talented person to write the lyrics!"

Tang Tang looked at the ranking information displayed on the screen and couldn't help but pout.

"It can't be helped. Xu Weiwen is the lyricist of Qingmu Entertainment. Besides, Wang Yaqi and the others are really favored. They can even let Xu Weiwen write the lyrics for a show."

Shu Yaqian, who was sitting next to them, sighed. She was a little envious of GoldenCold. The Galaxy Girls in Yehua Entertainment did not receive the same treatment as them.

If they sang a new song this time, their performance might surpass GoldenCold and become the number one in the ranking.

"Brother Bai, do you think the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" that you sang with Sister Feng today can surpass GoldenCold in terms of lyrics?"

Tang Tang's eyes turned and he suddenly asked Bai Xingjian.

Hearing this, many contestants around looked over, and some strange looks began to fall on Bai Xingjian and Tang Tang.

What does it mean to surpass GoldenCold in terms of lyrics?

Does this mean that Bai Xingjian's lyric writing ability is better than Xu Weiwen's?

Stop being funny, okay?

Even if you are members of the same entertainment company now, you don't have to flatter each other like this, right?
But facing these gazes, Bai Xingjian smiled and said:

"If I were to evaluate myself, I feel that the lyrics I wrote could surpass theirs, but I don't know how others would evaluate them."

As soon as these words came out, many of the players around showed surprised expressions. Good guy! What a good guy!
Bai Xingjian, you actually dare to say that!

Who gave you the courage?
Tang Tang opened his mouth, his emotions churning inside him.

She didn't expect that Brother Bai would say this just because she asked casually.

Confident boys are really handsome!
Shu Yaqian, Song Yuhan and other girls looked at each other, and they all felt a sense of curiosity and anticipation spreading in the air.

“666, is this the confidence of the new generation of creators?”

"Bai Xingjian is so awesome that he can even say such words."

"Surpass GoldenCold? Have you obtained Xu Weiwen's consent?"

"Hahaha, I think he doesn't know how to write the word 'shameless'."

"Don't say it, you really shouldn't say it, who knows if Bai Xingjian will suddenly come up with a surprising performance in this song today?"

Some contestants whispered to each other, and after being surprised for a moment, began to express disdain for Bai Xingjian's words, but some remained on the sidelines.

Wang Yaqi and the other two who were sitting far away noticed the gazes being directed at them and were also quite curious.

"What are these people making a fuss about? Are they expecting Fenghuang Yufei to surpass us?"

Wang Yaqi squinted her eyes and looked over. Although the distance was too far to hear clearly what the other party was saying, she could roughly understand the meaning by looking at their body movements.

"Who knows? It's pretty close, but it's just a fantasy."

Li Zhenxi noticed those looks. He looked at them for a while, then looked at Fenghuang Yufei. He was really bored.

At this moment, the four big words "Phoenix Flying" were displayed on the big screen behind the stage.

A broadcast was also heard in the preparation room.

"Please invite Fenghuang Yufei to the stage."

Almost all the contestants looked over at once.

GoldenCold has achieved excellent results today. What kind of answer will the Fenghuang Yufei combination, which is secretly their rival, give?
Everyone was very curious.

"Brother Bai, come on!"

"Sister Feng, come on!"

Tang Tang waved his little fists to cheer for Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi.

Shu Yaqian, Song Yuhan and other girls also made the same move.

Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi responded with a smile and walked out side by side.

"Are you confident?"

In the long corridor leading from the preparation room to the stage, Feng Shiqi looked at Bai Xingjian and asked.

"Of course."

Bai Xingjian nodded without hesitation. Just as he had answered Tang Tang before, he was very confident about the song "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond".

"Me too."

Feng Shiqi smiled gently and said, "Such beautiful lyrics will surely be liked by many people."

[New task released: Please ask the host and Feng Shiqi to get more than 700 votes on the stage]

[Reward: Blind box of the work*1, attribute points*n]

Looking at the prompt information that was almost the same as the last mission, Bai Xingjian felt very calm.

No matter how good Xu Weiwen’s lyrics are, Zhang Chao’s are no worse, right?
Moreover, Bai Xingjian was very satisfied with the stage design this time.

In his opinion, the stage plus his and Feng Shiqi's performance can definitely create an effect where one plus one is greater than two.

Today, let’s take a look at “Moonlight over the Lotus Pond” which has a strong classical Chinese style!
