So it was a false alarm…
All the trainees heaved a sigh of relief.
Only then did everyone notice that there was a special seat in front of the trainees’ seats.
Song Yaoyao slowly walked over and sat down.
“Oh my god… it really scared me to death. I thought Director Song was really going to debut as an artiste…”
“But Director Song’s singing is so good! Woo!”
“If Director Song really wants to participate, her fans will definitely help her get the center position.”
“I also want to help Director Song debut in the center position, hehehe.”
The instructors laughed as they listened to the trainees’ discussions. When they calmed down, they finally said, “Alright, everyone, quiet down. Our assessment is about to begin. Are you all ready?”
The discussions stopped abruptly.
A moment later…
The girls spoke in unison, their high-pitched voices filled with determination.
“We’re ready!”
They were going to work hard for their debut!
Song Yaoyao realized that participating in this program was quite interesting.
The girls each had their own unique talents. Their voices were different, their styles were different, and the stage effects were different as well.
Some of them were already fully qualified to debut, while others seemed to just be here for comic relief.
Song Yaoyao focused on reading, occasionally writing something in her notebook.
When she was asked to comment on something, she would hit the nail on the head.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, two hours had passed, but the assessment was still continuing.
Song Yaoyao yawned.
“Next, solo trainee, Zhongli Xue.”
When she read this name, Shan Ling was as curious as the trainees. “Zhongli, is this your original name, or is it your stage name?”
Zhongli Xue stood up elegantly and walked down the steps to the center of the stage.
“Zhongli is my surname, not my stage name.”
Her voice was soft and gentle, and her eyes were clear like spring water.
“I’m sorry, this is the first time I’ve heard this surname in real life. It’s too rare,” Shan Ling said apologetically. “You can get ready to begin.”
“Alright, Teacher.”
Zhong Lixue sat quietly. She had also chosen to play and sing by herself, and the song she was singing was a simple ‘goodnight’. Her voice was ethereal. Listening to her singing, one could not help but hold their breath, afraid that they would disturb her.
Luo Xingguang’s expression was very calm. He quickly memorized something. After she finished singing, he nodded.
The other three teachers had already started clapping.
“Wow.” Yang Fan turned his head and did not hide his praise as he said to Luo Xingguang, “Xingguang, all night, up until now, this performance has had the best stage presence and it’s also the strongest one. You don’t have any objections, right?”
“Huh?”
In the trainee seats, the girls looked at each other in dismay.
“Such a high evaluation?”
“Oh my! Everyone here is like a god! It’s so hard! Mom, I want to go home!”
Luo Xingguang raised his eyebrows and did not comment.
“Yaoyao, what do you think?”
“Didn’t you prepare a dance?” Song Yaoyao did not answer. Instead, she questioned the girl.
Zhongli Xue had a good temper. When she smiled, it was gentle and soft without making people feel disgusted. She was like a fairy.
This girl had a high EQ. Either she was born with this kind of personality, or her acting skills were very good.
She knew how to control the situation too well. A little more would cause others to dislike her, but a little less wasn’t enough to make people involuntarily like her and be attracted to her.
“Teacher, yes.”
Zhongli Xue’s eyes curved like crescent moons. Her temperament was clean and gentle.
“I prepared a ballet routine for today.”
She put down the microphone and everyone looked at her feet. Only then did they realize that she had stepped on stage in dancing shoes.
A beautiful accompaniment sounded.
Zhongli Xue suddenly stood on her toes and stretched her body. Instantly, she was ready.
She was very beautiful. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and the soft lighting on the stage enveloped her. She was like a swan dancing in the snow. Her neck was like white jade, and her body was unbelievably soft.
A three-minute dance made people unable to come back to their senses.
After a long time, thunderous applause sounded in the studio.
“Class A! She’s definitely going to Class A!”
“The first Class A student is born tonight!”
“No wonder she had the courage to take the first place. So she has the confidence.”
“She’s so beautiful…”
There were many girls in the studio who looked at her with envy. Who wouldn’t want to be this beautiful and pure girl?
“How is it? Teacher Song, what do you think of this dance?”
Faced with Yu Bai’s question, Song Yaoyao calmly deflected it. “I’m not a professional dancer. Let a professional judge it. What do you think, Teacher Yu?”
“Ahem…”
Yu Bai rubbed his nose. “Impeccable. It was perfect,” he dryly said before turning to Luo Xingguang to seek his approval. “What do you think, Teacher Luo?”
This time, Luo Xingguang simply nodded. “Mm, not bad.”
“Student Zhongli, please wait for a while, we’ll discuss it,” Shan Ling interrupted.
“Yes, Teacher.” From the beginning to the end, Zhongli Xue had a smile on her face.
The teachers left their seats and gathered around Luo Xingguang.
Luo Xingguang pulled Song Yaoyao over.
As they chatted amongst themselves, everyone felt extremely curious.
After the discussion ended, they returned to their original positions.
“Our special guest, Teacher Song, will announce it for us!” Shan Ling said.
The people behind him were discussing animatedly.
“No way, don’t tell me this doesn’t deserve Class A…”
“If she can’t get into Class A with her performance, I don’t know who else can.”
Song Yaoyao flipped through her notes. “When you were singing just now, you played a wrong note.”
“Wh-what?”
Song Yaoyao’s fingers tapped lightly on her thigh, mimicking the movements of playing the piano as she chanted the scale. However, looking at Zhongli Xue’s expression, she did not seem to agree with Song Yaoyao’s words.
Song Yaoyao did not care. “Excuse me, can you playback the climax for me?”
The scene was silent as Zhongli Xue’s singing replayed.
The replay cut in directly from the middle. Everyone pricked up their ears and listened quietly.
Must she be that strict? They didn’t hear any problems.
Only Zhongli Xue listened quietly and nodded. “Yes, I played it wrong.”
Shan Ling teased, “Teacher Song, what kind of ears do you have? This is too strict. If we follow your standards, when will a Class A student appear?”
“We already have one.”
Song Yaoyao looked at Zhongli Xue and said softly, “Congratulations, Class A.”
“Wow!”
“Ahhh, I knew it!”
“Go, Zhongli Xue!”
“You deserve it.”
The girl in the white dress who was standing on the stage bowed deeply. “Thank you, Teacher.” The moment she stood up, she let out a soft breath. Only a few people noticed it.
In reality, she was not as calm as she appeared to be.
Perhaps it was because Zhongli Xue’s performance was too stunning, for a long time after that, no one could surpass her, and no one was rewarded a spot in Class A.
