Chapter 65: Godly Qing Said, Hitherto Shalt Thou Come, but No Further (2)

Chu Yuanqing was among the group, wearing a new white shirt. Her full thighs swayed beneath her skirt, occasionally revealing a smooth expanse of leg that flowed gracefully down to white ankle socks, which concealed the shape of her ankles from view.

In the waiting room, only ten people were present in each batch.

There were no recording devices here. Each contestant would wait before walking into a dark, tunnel-like passage that swallowed both darkness and hope, leading to the stage where their fate would be decided.

During this process, contestants who had completed their performances would leave through the same waiting room. Their demeanor and expressions would largely add pressure to those entering later.

— Unknown paths, unknown challenges, unknown endings.

Merely thinking about these could easily disrupt one’s calm mindset.

Chu Yuanqing could clearly sense the unease among the other girls around her.

Fortunately, she was the first one called by the announcer:

“Number C1, please get ready to go on stage.”

…

…

Tutor Group.

Zhao Dapan thought carefully:

“The next contestant is the most popular one in Grade C. What kind of performance do you think she can deliver for us, Teacher Chen?”

Even though it was a live broadcast, these clips still needed to be edited into the show, so having dialogue that built suspense was definitely beneficial.

Luo Siling tactfully took over the conversation, saying:

“When it comes to Chu Yuanqing, advancing to the next round or staying in the same grade shouldn’t be a big issue, right? On her first performance at the preliminary assessment, she did an amazing job. It showed that she has great adaptability and quick thinking skills on stage.”

Chen Baijiu thought for a moment and showed a subtle expression. He believed that Chu Yuanqing was still at a stage of not being proficient in singing and dancing.

In other words, there was no doubt about the gap between her and the other contestants.

Looking just at her stage skills, not to mention being in Grade C, even being in Grade D was a bit of a stretch.

Furthermore, even though Chu Yuanqing was praised for having a big heart, she had not experienced this level of test before. Whether she could fully show her abilities remained uncertain.

Chen Baijiu was a very rational person. He admitted that Chu Yuanqing was like a piece of good raw jade.

The stage was a place to test basic skills. Without using a microphone, being able to avoid elimination was the most understated praise.

Chen Baijiu cleared his throat several times, as if he had just thought of something, and unusually tactfully said:

“I think this question should be left for the audience to judge.”

Jiang Chi agreed and said:

“Letting the contestants speak through the stage has always been the style of ‘Dazzling Stage.'”

As the words faded away, the lighting system on the stage came back to life.

Chu Yuanqing walked onto the stage slowly. Her attire was no different from the other contestants, but her finely proportioned body, with curves flowing back and forth like self-correcting lenses, drew the attention of the audience.

Her appearance was unchanged; usually, performers would apply stage makeup to look good on camera, but she wore no makeup as always, and her flawless face still couldn’t be faulted on camera.

With Xie Qingxuan’s help in applying lipstick, combined with her natural beauty, it added the finishing touch, silently captivating everyone watching the livestream.

If Little Sakura had relied on the feeling of ‘Heart Flow’ to make the audience understand the theme song as sea breeze soda, then Chu Yuanqing almost solely relied on atmosphere and her stunning beauty, creating a fresh and sweet scent of peaches in the upcoming performance of ‘Candy.’

In the Tutor Group, all four seats were startled simultaneously, then they looked at each other, clearly realizing the situation, and fell silent.

They had been working in the entertainment industry for many years, yet this was the first time they realized that idols could also excel on stage with their looks alone.

Chu Yuanqing didn’t need to do anything; her mere presence was the best interpretation of the theme song.

Did this mean that as long as the program group arranged a special makeup artist for her, she could easily blend into any large stage and become a presence that enhanced the overall atmosphere and meaning?

Naturally, the Carry Center?

Chen Baijiu had a headache; he could already imagine the terrible scene of Chu Yuanqing’s bad dancing being praised by millions in the audience.

This wasn’t right – if it was really that amazing, how should this performance be evaluated?

Although beauty could also be attributed to stage presence and expressiveness, as a world-class choreographer, he valued dance itself more and was starting to get nervous.

Zhao Dapan was very happy. He believed that regardless of the evaluation, with Chu Yuanqing’s popularity and potential, it was unreasonable to doubt her success. Even if it caused some controversy, she would eventually shine on future stages.

Luo Siling was somewhat an outsider. She thought that the immediate feedback from the audience was a crucial factor to consider.

Jiang Chi was quite similar. Being a RAP enthusiast facing a theme song without any rap elements, he tried to look cool by wearing sunglasses to not appear uncultured, making him seem more like a mascot than Dream Weaver Rabbit.

Therefore, in this mentor’s view, Chu Yuanqing’s straightforward beauty captivated both audience and mentors, making people overlook flaws in her dancing. This could only be attributed to part of her abilities.

If not, why couldn’t the other contestants do the same?

Since only she could achieve it, she must be amazing.

The RAP mentor’s thought process was very direct.

In the Tutor Group, Dream Weaver Rabbit seemed to be waiting for something, with deep eyes and a smile on her lips.

She had gotten an unexpected surprise from Kirimi Miyuki and naturally wanted to see if this shining Gemstone, who was the first to gain attention, could break through on the lifelike stage and show more potential.

The feedback in the live stream room was like a tsunami:

“First sight, single push, marriage, joint burial.”

“Your fight for favoritism is false, wrong, vulgar, indecent, ignorant. Only those who are truly devout to God, willing to dim their own brilliance for it, are qualified to receive God’s love alone.”

Chu Yuanqing stood in the middle of the stage.

Although she was unaware of the religious war brewing in the live stream room, the suddenly revived witch senses, combined with the attention of millions of viewers and the massive influx of emotions like a torrent, made the lantern on her arm unconsciously glow brighter and hotter.

At this moment, the crack on the Lantern Gem showed signs of healing for the first time!!!

Before this trend could spread, the curse deep in her soul, as if provoked, suddenly surged into the Lantern Gem, crushing and tearing apart all positive emotions from the feedback.

Ultimately, the hallucinations that erupted in the Sea of Truth on average every three days, following yesterday’s midnight reverie, suddenly erupted at this coincidentally inconvenient moment.
