song.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if your spoken English is excellent, the flavor brought out in song still won’t match the standard of a native speaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is like a foreigner singing a Chinese song to Chinese listeners—it’s undeniably torture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, at Tsinghua College, there are quite a few foreigners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this song isn’t sung well, it’s absolutely a dealbreaker!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, even the most talented students of the music institute wouldn’t dare to choose an English song for tonight’s welcoming party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, from the very first sentence, Thephoenix is essentially explosive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rhythm, it could be said, if sung well, would definitely blow the whole audience away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, can this kid in front of us do it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only Meng Xinyu and Zuo Qingluo, even the ever-solemn An Jiu was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a half-Chinese, half-American, she knows all too well what this song represents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any performer who can sing this song well is guaranteed to set the audience on fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And over the years she has been in Huaxia, she’s never seen anyone dare to attempt such a challenging song!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you sing it well?” An Jiu asked slowly, skepticism creeping onto her frosty face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan shrugged and chuckled, “Only one way to find out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give it a try?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Xinyu almost bit his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dude, you’re telling me to ‘give it a try’ at the welcoming party?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you mess it up, you’ll be slaughtered by thousands of people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, Zhang Fan, you go prepare, and just wing it when the time comes!” said Li Liang, then he walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Xinyu was close to cursing his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first act, they’re going to appear onstage with Zhang Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What would the audience think?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would believe Zhang Fan is one of their music institute’s own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zhang Fan botches it later, the ones getting scolded will be them, the music students!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it, why should they take the fall when Zhang Fan is the one showing off?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He absolutely objects first!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, with Li Liang having made his point, what could they do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, don’t screw it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it’s not going to work out, change the song!” Meng Xinyu said with a bitter tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan shook his head, “I’m going to listen to Thephoenix first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Zhang Fan also took out his phone, plugged in the earphones, and sat in the corner with his eyes closed, listening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was aware of Thephoenix’s difficulty, but how could he live up to his 100,000 Spiritual Value without challenging himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And having soared through Faded, why back down now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyrics, to Zhang Fan, are no pressure—he needs to focus on memorizing the whole song’s melody and rhythm by heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes later, Meng Xinyu walked over, patting Zhang Fan’s shoulder with a look full of worry in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, this is Thephoenix we’re talking about!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Has it started?” Zhang Fan asked!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah,” Meng Xinyu nodded, twitching his mouth before asking again, “Are you really okay with Thephoenix?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fan nodded, “Should be no problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In over ten minutes, he listened to Thephoenix three times, having mastered the melody and rhythm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing difficult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Xinyu’s brows were tightly furrowed, ‘Should be no problem?’ Damn, why does that sound so unnerving!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, he turned around and said to the guy beating the drum set, “Shen Hang, go call Zhang Xian and the others over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re already at the door,” Shen Hang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s go,” Meng Xinyu said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At once, Zhang Fan, An Jiu, Zuo Qingluo, and a few others also walked out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the door, Zhang Xian and a group of people holding guitars, basses, and other instruments were uncontrollably excited!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, the square was already filled to the brim, with thousands of people clustered together, creating a spectacular buzz.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But their gaze, at times, turned toward the direction of the rehearsal room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because An Jiu and Ai Lan, two of the top ten campus beauties, would also make an appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially at the thought of Ai Lan’s dance, a group of people were boiling with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That figure, those dance moves, damn, they were all jack-off material!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, the Face-Slapping Group was also seething with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He Yang, why isn’t the video connected yet, damn it, I can’t wait anymore, thinking back to the days, Zhang Fan singing ‘Exaggerate’ had me crying my eyes out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, yeah, when is Zhang Fan coming on stage!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, He Yang, if you mess this up, I swear I’ll personally go to Tsinghua to chop you up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha, brothers and sisters, I’m at the scene, hahaha, it’s a good thing I didn’t go back, otherwise, I would’ve missed out big time today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the scene, over a hundred people started waving their silver light sticks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were the very bunch that had been squatting at the entrance of Tsinghua since the morning waiting for Zhang Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, they were having a gathering of over a hundred people, but as soon as they heard Zhang Fan was going to perform, they rushed over immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, thank goodness I didn’t go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, you jerks, how could you be at the site!” a group of people cursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe, have you forgotten?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We were waiting for Zhang Fan this morning!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a hundred people were smug beyond compare!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Yang stood beside a high platform, fiddling with the camera non-stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he finally opened his laptop and started tapping on the keyboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yang Haochen, give me the live broadcast account,” He Yang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“OK!” Yang Haochen directly gave He Yang the account.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hurry up, my big knife is already thirsty for action.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, I’ve been refreshing for ten minutes now, He Yang, are you up to it or not!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Face-Slapping Group Headquarters’ QQ chat room had completely exploded, with 99+ replies in an instant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“OK!” He Yang replied, then pressed the Enter key.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the group of people waiting in the live broadcast room screamed in excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impressive, the image quality is so damn clear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this Tsinghua?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Woah, why is there no one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Yang laughed, what a joke, if he couldn’t manage this gadget, how could he call himself a top Computer Science student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he controlled the camera to rotate, the live broadcast room exploded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shit, this many people?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It must be over ten thousand, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the dense crowd, a bunch of guys were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you kidding, our Tsinghua’s new student welcome event, could it be weak?” He Yang laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, screams suddenly erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Jiu, Zhang Fan, Meng Xinyu, and Zuo Qingluo slowly made their way towards the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By their side, Zhang Xian and a group of others were guarding them like bodyguards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“An Jiu, An Jiu, An Jiu!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tens of thousands of people stood up at the same time, even though they were behind computer screens, the group from the Face-Slapping Group could feel the explosive atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Yang also busily adjusted the camera!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Woah, Zhang Fan, Zhang Fan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My god, Zhang Fan is the first to go on stage, that’s freaking awesome!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, that girl is so beautiful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absolutely gorgeous, and a mixed-race beauty at that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, what the hell are you dumbasses looking at?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re here to watch Zhang Fan!” a group of girls immediately scolded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahem, watch Zhang Fan, sure, but in our spare time, let’s appreciate some beauties, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just at that moment, Zhang Xian and his group made their move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of instruments began to play suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1302,"2026-06-08T10:03:05.886Z",1,"novelbin.me","23424857bb26e3f3e716bc9e00a2550dfc4752ac13abfd3dcafdef77236aa0d6","the-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-chapter-428","the-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-chapter-426",1920,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-strongest-face-slapping-king-in-the-city-cover.jpg"]
