Chapter 327: 《Ordinary Road》

The stage lights for the *Masked Singer* grand finale were very bright; when they all gathered at the exit of the stage passage, it made it so people could only vaguely see human silhouettes.

At the same time, mist would also rise at this moment, creating a sense of illusion.

The overall effect was a bit like a famous scene of walking against the light in the drama *Guardian* from Earth.

Everyone was already a bit familiar with the silhouette of the 【Superstar】. They knew he wasn't very tall, and his body proportions could only be considered alright.

But the man beside him not only had an upright posture, his body proportions were even those of a model.

Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs.

Isn't this exactly the same as in the poster?

Damn it, the production team actually didn't play any tricks this time; they didn't intentionally throw out smoke bombs to deceive the netizens.

Teacher 【Earth】 is actually really a model!

I have to say, people are visual animals, especially when everything you see forms a strong contrast with everything you imagined.

"He's actually not a short, fat man!"

"With this physique, he can still drift through the sea of people and experience the vicissitudes of life?"

"Amazing! I've fallen for him entirely!"

"If you don't look at his face, he could even rival those Idols."

It wasn't just the ordinary audience; even the professional judging panel were all looking at each other in dismay.

The women's eyes lit up, while the men felt confused.

"This industry is getting harder and harder to survive in. We're all working behind the scenes, so why are you managing your physique so well?"

"Does this count as a form of involution?"

"What happened to the agreement that working behind the scenes only requires talent?"

Now, Teacher 【Earth】 has become even more of a Legend.

Wealthy, charismatic, and with excellent physique management—he is clearly a... person of extreme self-discipline!

Because everyone's guesses about his age remained at their original views. Once a man reaches a certain age, whether it's his metabolism or other aspects, it will be different from when he was young, so many people who were very thin when young will gain weight as they grow older.

Honestly, even with both masked, the Heavenly King Superstar Wu Yuefeng standing beside 【Earth】 did not possess any advantage.

And what made everyone even more curious was the mask 【Earth】 was wearing on his face.

It was a cartoon human face with a relatively realistic art style, only the features were plain and unremarkable, or one could say slightly ugly.

Everyone didn't understand why he would choose such a mask.

The most absurd thing was that because this person's personality was so strong, everyone would overthink it, and the direction of their imagination would be very skewed.

"Is he asking everyone to focus more on the inner self?"

"Inner beauty is the true beauty!"

"Raise your standards, and leave behind low-level interests! Don't think about that man-woman stuff all day long!"

"I agree with raising standards, but I object to calling this a low-level interest."

"Even if he really looks like this in person, I'll still be his fan!"

Everyone had different views and opinions, focusing both on the mask and on... what was beneath the mask!

Only Xu Chujing, sitting in the center of the guest seats, looked at this mask, her whole body trembling slightly, as if struck by lightning.

She remembered her initial dream again, the dream where she turned into a white Cat, pure white all over without a single stray hair.

The blurred face of the man in the dream seemed to become a little clearer at this moment.

She looked at this mask and couldn't look away at all.

………

………

In the center of the stage, the 【Superstar】 and 【Earth】 stood on the left and right.

It was strange; everyone felt that even the 【Superstar】 had changed a lot today.

Although his face was masked, he gave people the feeling that he was more confident.

It seemed like even his walking posture had changed.

The ordinary audience didn't know that all of this stemmed from that damn, overwhelming sense of security.

As for Luo Mo, standing here wearing a mask, he felt a bit like he was back on Earth.

"Once upon a time, I also had a turning point in my career while under a mask," he thought to himself.

Many people might have forgotten that Luo Mo on Earth didn't develop well at the beginning, until he coincidentally participated in *Masked Dance King*, gained a batch of fans, accumulated popularity, and his career finally took a turn for the better.

Therefore, also wearing a mask, he had a strange, indescribable feeling about himself.

This feeling was very wondrous; he felt both excited and suppressed.

Amidst the screams of the audience, Luo Mo took a simple deep breath and adjusted his state.

Searching for the state for when he would be Singing later!

The prelude of the song sounded at this moment, and the song title began to appear on the big screen.

——*Ordinary Road*.

As for below the song title, there were a few extremely familiar lines of text.

【Lyricist: Earth】.

【Composer: Earth】.

【Arranger: Earth】.

The prelude of the whole song felt completely different in style from his many previous works.

The 【Superstar】 was the first to start Singing:

"Wandering, On the Road,

Are you leaving, Via——Via——,

Fragile, proud,

That was once what I looked like too.】"

When Li Junyi sang this song, his entire vocal style and state were different from his performance in the previous program.

That sense of warmth seemed a bit weaker, but the sense of story and narrative was stronger.

The lyrics in this section were able to touch him.

He was someone who ran from a small place to a big city to struggle for success; he originally thought he was excellent enough at Dancing and Singing, but later discovered he was still far off.

Therefore, the two lines of lyrics, 【Fragile】 and 【Proud】, could be said to be a true portrayal of him.

He still carried the pride from when he was in a small place, and would not immediately erase all this past just because he suddenly became indistinguishable from the Masses.

But the more a person carries pride, the easier it is indeed to be shattered when suddenly facing these things.

The original singer of this song is Pu Shu, who is considered a maverick in the entertainment industry.

There are many contradictory aspects to him, and many traits that shouldn't have appeared in the entertainment industry.

As for him, before Han Han invited him to sing the theme song for the movie "The Continent", he had already retreated from the view of the Masses for a long, long time.

Although many people were still listening to his classic works like "Those Flowers", they could not see him.

You might find it hard to imagine that some people can live off one song for a lifetime and make money crazily. Yet, because of some of his own traits, Pu Shu often lived in extreme financial straits, even poverty, after producing so many classic songs.

This song, "Ordinary Road", is a song that makes many people feel it sounds good from the very beginning.

So, as soon as the 【Superstar】 opened his mouth to sing these few lines, the bullet comments began to flood the screen.

"Sounds good!"

"Although the vocal style has changed, it still has a lot of flavor!"

"Loved it, loved it!"

And just at this moment, 【Earth】 picked up the microphone in his hand.

All the audience's eyes lit up instantly, filled with immense anticipation.

Everyone had a common thought in their minds—can 【Earth】 actually Sing?

Some songs, it seems, can be sung with feeling even without much singing technique, such as "Laughing at the Vast Sea" that Luo Mo wrote earlier.

There are many versions by old men on the internet, and the netizens' evaluations are all: "All emotion, no technique."

Will Teacher 【Earth】 also follow this route?

The singing voice began to echo throughout the venue.

"【Boiling, uneasy.

Where are you going, Via——Via——,

Enigmatic, silent,

Are you really listening to the story?】"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the whole venue fell into a brief dead silence.

The professional judging panel was completely stunned.

The audience at the scene was also stunned.

Only Xu Chujing sat there, wearing a smile.

The bullet comments in the Live Broadcast instantly spread like a tidal wave, and the netizens exploded.

"Sounds good! This vocal line is amazing!"

"Ahhh! I feel like my ears are pregnant!"

"I'm listening with headphones, I'm really captivated!"

"Very magnetic, it sounds so comfortable!"

Luo Mo himself has a versatile vocal style; when singing songs of different styles, his vocal style is different.

And Luo Mo had not tried works in the style of "Ordinary Road" much before.

He changed the position of his vocal production.

It wasn't that he deliberately disguised himself to cater to the program "Masked Singer", or deliberately wanted to make the audience unable to recognize him.

It was more that he was looking for the most suitable way to sing this song.

What he wanted to do was to interpret the song well and sing it well.

Of course, even in this situation, there were still a small number of listeners who felt this voice sounded a bit familiar.

But regardless, this stage was undoubtedly going to explode!

【Earth】 not only really knows how to Sing, but also sings so well, with such feeling, and such flavor.

Most importantly, the lyrics of this song are also very interesting.

——"【Enigmatic, silent】."

Isn't Teacher 【Earth】 one of the biggest mysteries of the entire program?

And from beginning to end, he had never appeared in public, and from beginning to end, he had remained silent.

The remaining grand finale Singers all had their expressions turn a bit ugly.

Even the Heavenly King Superstar Wu Yuefeng suddenly felt a tightness in his chest.

At first, when this "pay-to-win player" 【Earth】 came to the stage to assist in singing, it gave people the feeling of crashing the party.

His identity and nature were different.

But when he opened his mouth to sing, everyone didn't just feel like he was crashing the party.

Is this definitely not someone coming to steal our jobs?

The strangest thing is that as professional Singers, they are quite sensitive to voices.

Therefore, they also felt that this singing voice was a bit off, and the more they listened, the more off it felt.

There was another point that was also magical, and that was that Earth's Typhoon was too steady!

For a first-time stage appearance, the Typhoon shouldn't be this steady.

This was the grand finale with a massive live audience, with such a huge scene laid out right here!

The guests on site even included a top-tier diva like Xu Chujing; the scale had already been set, and it was set very large!

Even if an ordinary person sings well in daily life, it is very easy for them to lose their composure when stepping onto this kind of stage.

This Guest Singer is extremely terrifying!

It would be one thing to have a natural aura, and one thing to have talent, but the Singing skills are also this remarkable!

The many things about him, when added together, made these opponents feel fear in their hearts.

Earth: Are you ready to be dominated?
