No matter how anxious they were, they could only wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Jiang Qin was completely immersed in playing the Zither.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She loved many instruments, and every one of them enchanted her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If I weren’t on a show,’ she thought, ’I’d want to shut my mouth and just quietly listen to the unique sound of the Zither.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Never before have I felt my own singing was so superfluous.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the audience and judges didn’t find it superfluous at all. They were completely mesmerized by that winding, operatic passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Ethan’s parts had become the most anticipated moments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because after he finished singing, the operatic vocals would begin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin’s Spiritual Body emerged again, but faced with an audience of over a billion people, her tiny bit of Calming Power didn’t even make a ripple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone just assumed she was so lost in the music that her Spiritual Body had lost control again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people immersed in the song didn’t even have time to consider feelings like concern, worry, ridicule, or discrimination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after the song ended, everyone remained lost in the scene it had conjured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if they had just truly seen an ancient emperor joyfully drinking with his favored concubine—who was somewhere between drunk and sober—in a lavish palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they remembered that the favored concubine was just one of the three thousand beauties in the emperor’s harem, they couldn’t help but feel a pang of pity for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Imagining Jiang Qin, in her outfit today, in that position made them grit their teeth in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beauty like her deserved the world’s exclusive affection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although her Calming Power was diluted, the empathetic force of Jiang Qin’s singing was still incredibly strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, everyone in the audience wished they were that monarch and Jiang Qin was their favored concubine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would surely give her a love that was hers and hers alone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a good thing they weren’t monarchs. Otherwise, they’d probably all be love-struck fools, going down in history as infamous rulers in a matter of minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But being love-struck had its benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Jiang Qin’s vote count was constantly rising. It had already surpassed thirty million and finally stopped at over forty-three million votes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The judges uniformly gave high scores of 90 or above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mainframe judge also gave a high score of 97.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The final average score was: 96!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the composers in the venue fell silent. The ones with weaker mental fortitude were already on the verge of breaking down and wanting to quit the show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could they possibly compete with this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One person had taken nearly half of all the votes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her average score was nearly perfect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one of the judges hadn’t been suppressing the scores, she might have even reached 99 points this round!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the composers were expressionless, unable to squeeze out even the slightest smile, even though the cameras were pointed at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The netizens in the livestream chat were amused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hahaha, I never thought Mr. Karl would see this day! Last episode at this time, he was so arrogant and insufferable!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[To be fair, even as an Imperial, I can’t find any fault with this song.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The theme hit the bullseye, the ancient instrument was a bonus, plus those unique operatic vocals... Ethan wasn’t outstanding, but he didn’t drag her down.
