Chapter 50: Divine Immortal Chanting
Before 8:00 PM on Saturday, Xiao Cai and Xiao Fang, these two best friends, gathered happily at home, waiting for the broadcast of *Creating Idols*.
Thinking back, Xiao Cai fell into the "Mo Sheng Ren" pit after watching the first episode; she was originally just following the crowd for fun, but ended up finding she couldn't climb back out.
As for Xiao Fang, this little rich girl who loves wearing JK Uniforms, she was previously a fan of Ji Kangdong, and even though Xiao Cai frantically pushed Luo Mo, she remained unmoved.
As it turned out, after listening to *Gentle* and *Confession Night*, and adding the fact that Luo Mo is indeed even more handsome than Ji Kangdong, she chose to cheat for a week and decisively voted for Luo Mo.
She originally thought this wasn't love, just a fleeting sense of novelty.
In the end, she found she couldn't go back.
From the "I'm no longer pure" feeling during her first time cheating, she evolved into "Hey! I'm just a scumbag girl," and decisively threw herself into Luo Mo's embrace.
Sorry Ji Kangdong, I have already become Luo Mo's shape.
And so, the two best friends often bickered recently, resulting in a situation of "two women fighting for one husband."
Xiao Cai looked at Xiao Fang with an unhappy face and said, "You little hussy, did you forget what you said in the group that day? How do I remember someone saying my Ji Kangdong is the best in the world?"
Xiao Fang tidied her pleated skirt, and while cutting watermelon for Xiao Cai, said, "Big sister, don't be so distant; we are all one family. If you call me little sister, I won't fight you over who is the big one."
She handed half the watermelon to Xiao Cai and continued to tease, "In the future, you take Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I'll take Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, and on Sunday we'll all be together—wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Xiao Cai wasn't as open as Xiao Fang; she couldn't handle this kind of joke. After letting out a few strange cries, she took the watermelon and admitted defeat: "Shut up, it's starting."
On the tablet, the second half of the second episode of *Creating Idols* officially began broadcasting.
The two sisters sat cross-legged on the sofa together; Xiao Cai had bare legs, while Xiao Fang was wearing a JK Uniform, so she had white silk stockings on her legs.
The two women uniformly placed half a watermelon on their laps, and with a sense of ritual, clapped their hands together and said full of energy: "Let's dig in!"
At the start of the program, the first to go on stage was Shen Mingliu's team.
Xiao Cai took a vicious bite of watermelon and said, "I don't know what's so good about this Shen Mingliu; his eyes look like a fox's, yet he can still rank first on the popularity list."
If it were in the past, Xiao Fang, as a fan of Ji Kangdong, might have argued a few words for Shen Mingliu, who also belonged to Xingshi Entertainment, but tonight, she just took a big bite of watermelon too, and followed up viciously:
"Exactly, exactly!"
In the first public performance, Shen Mingliu's dancing was actually quite good, and finally, when freezing for the ending pose, he even winked at the camera.
Xiao Fang and Xiao Cai looked at each other, then said in perfect unison: "Disgusting!"
Looking at the screen full of 【So handsome】 and 【Ah, I'm dead】 in the bullet comments, they both sneered.
Heh, if this is called handsome, then wouldn't our Luo Mo count as a divine face?
Xiao Cai raised her right hand and stroked Xiao Fang's calf, which was covered in white silk stockings, and said, "Check how many votes Luo Mo is behind Shen Mingliu."
Xiao Fang slapped Xiao Cai's hand away and said, "Stop touching, you're getting watermelon juice on my white silks."
She picked up her phone, checked the 【Popularity Support Ranking】, and said, "It's quite a lot, let me calculate."
"Shen Mingliu is still first, Luo Mo is now tenth, there's still a gap of over five million votes."
Xiao Cai was stunned and said, "Ah? The gap is that big?"
Xiao Fang nodded and said, "What did you expect? His fans are spending real money to vote, and he had built-in popularity from the start. He opened up a huge gap in votes in the first two weeks. Back then, besides being handsome, what else did Luo Mo have?"
"Then can he catch up?" Xiao Cai asked.
Xiao Fang shook her head and said, "It's hard. If you don't spend money to boost the ranking, as time passes, the gap will only get bigger. Unless the number of voters directly crushes the others, relying on the free weekly votes to make a comeback against the wind."
Votes are cast once a week, so money actually plays a very big role.
She handed the phone to Xiao Cai and said, "Look! It's not that I still have feelings for my ex-husband; we're just talking based on data. Look at this vote curve; although Luo Mo has been growing steadily, judging by this momentum, let alone Shen Mingliu, it's even hard to surpass Ji Kangdong."
Xiao Cai said dejectedly, "Fine, whatever, at worst I'll top up a yuan for Luo Mo later!"
"Hahahaha, watch first, watch first, I'm still looking forward to his song."
In the eager anticipation of this pair of best friends, the last to appear, the Anonymous Team, finally took the stage.
The song title appeared on the subtitles—*Big Fish*.
At the same time, it also marked who the leader and C-Position of the Anonymous Team were.
"Ah? Luo Mo isn't the C-Position?" They were a bit speechless.
"Tong Shu? I don't have much of an impression; seems like a small internet celebrity?" Xiao Fang asked.
"Not really, but he seems to have a good relationship with Luo Mo. I noticed a few shots earlier where they were eating together," Xiao Cai, as a "veteran fan," replied.
But as soon as the singing of this song spread, Xiao Cai and Xiao Fang's eyes lit up.
Catchy! Too catchy!
This style was completely different from *Gentle*.
The lyrics of the song *Gentle* were a bit heartbreaking, while the lyrics of this *Big Fish* were of the kind that carried a sense of story.
Most importantly, this harmony seemed very impressive!
"Who is doing the harmony? Did the program team hire a female Singer?" The two were puzzled.
And when it reached the chorus, Tong Shu, who had been standing in the Corner, finally stepped forward a few steps and began to show himself.
"【Watching you fly far away, watching you leave me...】"
Indistinguishable as male or female, ethereal and clear.
Xiao Cai and Xiao Fang were both stunned listening.
"This vocal range is just too unique!"
"And his Singing technique is so steady; it was him doing the harmony just now, right?"
The two women were dumbfounded, completely attracted by this voice. They felt the pleasantness of this song was maxed out, feeling as if it were tailor-made by Luo Mo for this Tong Shu!
The bullet comments also exploded in an instant, with overwhelming messages saying it was good, saying it was stunning.
Previously, there were still people in the bullet comments mocking, saying Tong Shu was worthy of being the C-Position?
Now he proved himself with his strength.
He is the one with the most unique vocal range among the 100 trainees!
Is Luo Mo acting on emotion?
Bullshit! He has a discerning eye for talent!
By the time the song reached its second pass, with the chorus sung by Luo Mo and Tong Shu together, many people felt it was absolutely superb!
This stage and the stages of the previous groups were simply not on the same level.
Admittedly, the original song brought by Ji Kangdong and Meng Yangguang was of a sufficient standard. After all, it was bought out by Xingshi Entertainment at a high price.
Xingshi Entertainment is not bad!
But compared to "Big Fish," the gap is a bit large.
The barrage went crazy once again.
"God-tier singing! Is this fucking god-tier singing?"
"This is a fucking legendary stage!"
"Alright, welcome everyone to the live broadcast of the Creating Idols grand finale."
"The show can just end right here!"
When the final chorus ended, the accompaniment was still echoing.
Everyone felt that, up to this point, this song "Big Fish" could be considered a perfect conclusion.
However, the most stunning part of this song was precisely hidden at the very end.
The four trainees left the Center Position of the stage to Tong Shu and Luo Mo.
The chanting at the end of "Big Fish" began to echo across the stage.
Siren and opera singer, breathy vocals and Opera Singing.
Xiao Fang and Xiao Cai instantly got goosebumps!
The two, who were sitting cross-legged, couldn't help but rub their legs hard with their hands to get their arms and legs back to normal.
Superb, absolutely superb!
Who could have imagined that a song would actually have a hidden easter egg at the end.
Xiao Fang stared blankly at Xiao Cai and said, "I take back what I said just now. I feel like we can still push even higher on the Popularity Support Ranking."
Saturday night was destined to be a restless night.
The previously unknown Tong Shu was unstoppable on the Popularity Support Ranking, and his ranking began to rise continuously.
Luo Mo, who was already in the top tier, was also constantly closing the gap, blowing past the ninth and eighth places, whose vote counts were not that far off!
"Big Fish" climbed the Weibo Hot Search at night and directly Air Dropped onto the Penguin Music Rising Chart and New Song Chart...
——Turning the rivers and overturning the seas.
