A few seconds later, a new list appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Jiang Qin’s name was at the top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her singer for the next round was Cang Hong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The name sounded vaguely familiar; she remembered seeing it on the list of contestants before the show began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a newly-crowned Heavenly King from Federation Star Entertainment, and a man who was rather unmemorable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any case, Jiang Qin had no real impression of him, only his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And that concludes the first episode. We’ll see you again in three days at 6 PM.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the show ended, Qi Yu, Xiao Zheng, and three singers came to meet Jiang Qin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Xini and the other composer, she didn’t see them. ’They probably left early,’ she figured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Makes sense. They were so busy mocking me before, and this time they didn’t even make it into the top ten. They must be too embarrassed to face me.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yu said, \"Congratulations, Miss Jiang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Jiang Qin didn’t seem particularly excited, everyone just offered a quick congratulations before changing the subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she returned to her assigned room, she was greeted by a familiar scene, only the person waiting at her door had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Hong had choppy, ink-black hair with bangs parted off-center, partially obscuring his eyes and giving him a fashionably messy look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked very young, with a baby face that made him seem eighteen, though he was actually twenty-four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he looked up, Jiang Qin’s gaze flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Hong was, of course, handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what stunned her were his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They seemed to be overflowing with tenderness. As the saying goes, they were the kind of eyes that could look at a dog with deep affection...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jiang Qin had returned, he said timidly, \"Hello, I-I’m... Cang Hong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he seemed annoyed at how nervous he was. He bit his lip and lowered his head, looking like a big, sad puppy...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin asked, \"Is now a good time for an audition?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-It is... a good time,\" Cang Hong quickly replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of his eyes and the tips of his ears were flushed red. He looked like someone with social anxiety who was being forced to socialize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the audition, Cang Hong kept his head down, not daring to look Jiang Qin in the eye. He gave a flustered bow and hurried away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin was speechless. ’This seems less like social anxiety and more like he’s just afraid of women.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had beautiful eyes, you could only get a clear look at them when your gazes met by chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the time, his head was down, or his eyes were darting all over the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when he sang, staring into the empty space before him, did the true quality of his eyes reveal itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Jiang Qin knocked on the door of Room 121B with a music score in hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Hong seemed to have just woken up. His hair was a bit messy, and he was wearing a simple t-shirt and casual pants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did I come too early?\" Jiang Qin asked with a slightly embarrassed smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was mainly because Sak was so competitive, and to avoid holding her teammate back, she had become a bit of a try-hard herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Hong quickly shook his head. \"N-No, I just went to bed too late, so I woke up late.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s fine. If you’re not fully rested, you can get some more sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I came to ask if you’d be okay with singing a duet with me for the new song.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, that’s fine too. I can just switch to another song.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can... can I take a look at it first?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin nodded and handed him the score. \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Jiang, I can do it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm, you could sing this solo, but I think a male-female duet would be better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re in a competition, after all, so I think it’s best to strive for perfection and add something special.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cang Hong nodded frantically, showing he understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The show was called *Interstellar Composer*, so it was obviously composer-centric. Of course he would defer to her ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the duet potentially making him less of a standout, Cang Hong felt that you first had to be stunning to be remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was well aware of his own voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could sing this song beautifully on his own, but it would only be beautiful—nothing more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be far from achieving that stunning effect. So, it was better to listen to the composer’s own ideas; perhaps it would produce a different result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mainly, he had faith in Jiang Qin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Federation singer, most of his peers had heard of Jiang Qin. They had even discussed her amongst themselves in private.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, no matter how much controversy surrounded her, her talent was unquestionable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take Sak from the first episode, for example.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before yesterday, he was only somewhat famous within a small circle among the Myriad Races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after yesterday, most people in the Federation, the Empire, and across the Myriad Races knew of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So when he learned he had been assigned to Jiang Qin, he couldn’t have been more thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just his personality that made him unable to control the timidity and fear in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know why, but he could always act naturally around other males. The moment he was around a female, however, he would become tongue-tied, even stuttering when nervous...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He desperately wanted to speak to her openly and confidently, but he couldn’t stop himself from cowering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering how females in the past had mocked him, calling him a spineless coward who couldn’t even stand up straight, made Cang Hong even more anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Stupid mouth, just say something!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Hurry up and compliment Miss Jiang! Make a good impression, ahhh!!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even as Jiang Qin turned to go back to her room, he still hadn’t managed to say a word. Dejected, he could only return to his own room to get himself together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time he had familiarized himself with the melody, it was already noon. He rushed to the recording studio to practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he pushed the door open, he found Jiang Qin was already inside, practicing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was singing the very song she had given him that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right then, she was singing her part, her soaring, piercing voice echoing from the recording booth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Every time I have known sorrow,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And been drenched by the downpour,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flower blooms from the mud,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just let it grow...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was filled with power, as if she had broken free from her shackles and was experiencing a new life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a tender sprout breaking through the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like her at this moment... shining brilliantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The overwhelming vitality washed over him like a tidal wave, drowning him. He had no desire to struggle; he only wanted to sink, to drown in a world filled with her essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice filled his entire mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if all the Genes in his body had awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His blood was roaring, screaming that he was now filled with a fighting spirit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"AWOOO—\" A roar he could no longer suppress burst from his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Day one of song practice: Reimbursed the show for one recording studio and two rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin, along with Cang Hong, was exiled to another room—Room 100.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The composers and singers in the neighboring rooms all came out to watch the drama unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the collapsed room, a dust-covered Jiang Qin was still holding a microphone, while Cang Hong, having shifted back from his beast form to his human form, was in a state of utter social annihilation.\u003C\u002Fp>",1335,"2026-06-05T22:55:33.682Z",1,"novelbin.me","6a6fcba57c53d9a57cf0e4549bccad1b920b8dc43851e12fd489f8aac929f484","a-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-chapter-88","a-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-chapter-86",500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fa-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-cover.jpg"]
