As Ran Youqing’s voice fell, the camera was pointed at Long Mu, and everyone looked over.
The brothers around him hugged him and wished him well. And with red eyes, he excitedly stepped forward to receive his results.
“Thank you!” He took it respectfully with both hands and bowed to Ran Youqing.
Sheng Ziyou was not surprised by this student’s performance. In fact, he didn’t like to show off or steal the spotlight.
It was true that his achievements were related to the fact that he was a trainee chosen by the program team, but more importantly, it was due to his strength.
He was a capable but low-key student, but he was luckier than Jing Xianglei and Dou Xuan.
The latter were low-key, which meant there were no shots, while the former always had quite a few shots.
When the program production team hosted the show, they claimed that there would be no shady dealings and that every vote would be fair and verifiable.
It was true that there had been rumors among the contestants that the production team rigged Long Mu’s votes, but Sheng Ziyou felt that this student still had the ability to deserve this result.
However, there were still some students with this ability who had not been seen by the audience.
Long Mu had a very deep voice. Like Gu Yuzheng, the audience could easily recognize their voices whenever they spoke.
A highly recognizable and charming voice.
Moreover, this student was very humble and low-key. He may not be as good-looking as Lu He, but he was also in the upper tier.
Ran Youqing opened another envelope. Sheng Ziyou withdrew her thoughts and looked over.
There was a very surprising name in the envelope, because Ran Youqing looked slightly surprised at that moment.
But soon, Ran Youqing smiled and said with a little joy: “Seventh place – Fu Jiahuan!”
“Ah! Ahhhh! Brother Huan!”
“Fu Jiahuan!”
“Brother Huan——”
….
Fu Jiahuan was very popular among the students, and as soon as his advancement was announced, many students cheered for him.
Jing Xianglei hugged him and smiled: “Brother Huan, I told you, you could get in!”
He was very happy, he was really happy for Fu Jiahuan.
It would be good if some of them could advance.
Fu Jiahuan also hugged Jing Xianglei tightly, blinked his eyes, and held back his tears: “There is a chance, you still have a chance.”
Jing Xianglei smiled and nodded.
The remaining students hugged Fu Jiahuan and were happy for him. Sheng Ziyou sighed softly.
They are still happy for others, but they don’t know that they themselves… are about to leave with regret.
Selection competition, fan voting, and investor market.
Fu Jiahuan really didn’t expect that he would achieve this result. Before the performance, his ranking hovered around 15th. The last time he saw it, it was jumping back and forth between 12th and 15th. He thought he was leaving, but he didn’t expect that the group of fans who supported him were still doing their best for him even till yesterday.
He stepped forward, took the transcript respectfully, and looked up at Sheng Ziyou standing next to Ran Youqing, full of gratitude.
If it weren’t for Teacher Sheng… he would have been eliminated in this round.
Sheng Ziyou smiled and nodded at him.
Fu Jiahuan said excitedly: “Crab, crab.”
He was so excited that he actually spoke in Sichuan and Chongqing dialect.
The tense atmosphere was instantly broken and everyone burst into laughter.
Fu Jiahuan scratched his head and ran towards the direction where he had already advanced.
Qu Feng shrugged and chuckled, “Now there are only the top six students for our debut position and the eighteenth student left. Let’s announce the debut position first.”
He picked up the sixth place envelope: “I will announce the sixth place student first!”
The six people who would debut were actually already very obvious, they were Jiao Xiu, Gu Yuzheng, Ji Ran, Guan Yike, Lu He, and Feng Yuanxuan.
It was just that their votes had always been pretty close, but they didn’t know if the specific rankings would be reshuffled after this performance?
“Sixth place—Ji Ran!”
“Ah?” The students made surprised sounds.
Sheng Ziyou was also stunned for a moment, somewhat unexpectedly.
You should know that Ji Ran got the first place in the initial test. When the first voting channel was opened, he topped the list with countless votes higher than other students.
At that time, some people jokingly said that Ji Ran would debut as the center.
They just didn’t expect…
His ranking was getting lower and lower. This time he was already on the verge of falling out of the debut group. Would the next time…
Ji Ran’s face turned pale for a moment. But he tried his best to smile as he stepped forward to receive his results.
The students were so surprised that they even forgot to congratulate him.
There was really no need to congratulate. This was not a happy occasion for Ji Ran.
Ji Ran walked aside with his grades, looking a little dazed. Lin Yidong beside him was talking to him with concern, but he turned a deaf ear to him.
Why?
Ji Ran wondered if it was because he had stomach discomfort recently that he was unable to maintain the “foodie” image that his fans liked.
Or was he not feeling well and not dancing well?
Sheng Ziyou looked at Ji Ran with complicated eyes. When she met him in her previous life, he was also in a bad situation.
This person always seemed to have to work twice as hard as others to get the same results as others.
In fact, for Sheng Ziyou, he was sick that day but insisted on finishing the whole exciting dance, and his performance made the audience unable to tell that he was actually unwell, which was already quite amazing.
This required great perseverance and endurance.
But his ranking had indeed been declining.
Sheng Ziyou shook her head and no longer paid attention to Ji Ran.
At this time, Qu Feng had already opened the envelope of the fifth place winner. He took a look and said –
“This student… well, he’s very cute, very honest, and willing to take responsibility. Although he’s only eighteen years old, he’s already a man.”
Almost as soon as Qu Feng spoke the words of frankness, everyone looked at Lu He.
Someone pushed him, and someone whispered in his ear—it must be you.
But Lu He stared at Qu Feng nervously, his heart beating faster.
“He is——Lu He!”
Lu He covered his mouth excitedly and hugged the people around him. He faced the students and took a step forward. Jing Xianglei saw it, smiled and walked forward, and the two hugged each other.
Everything was implied.
“Thank you!” Lu He said excitedly while holding the report card. He was ranked fifth before the performance, but after the performance, and after he admitted to the scene of the car accident, he was still ranked fifth. Lu He was really satisfied and grateful.
He ran towards Fu Jiahuan, who picked him up, and the students who advanced to the next level hugged each other again.
“The fourth one is Pippi in the hearts of fans. His rap skills impress all the mentors. He is Guan Yike!” Qu Feng didn’t keep anyone in suspense and directly read out Guan Yike’s name.
Guan Yike walked forward with a smile to receive the result, which was as expected.
There were still the “Buddhist brother” Feng Yuanxuan, the “shy boy” Jiao Xiu, and the calm and generous Gu Yuzheng.
The strength that Feng Yuanxuan displayed in the last performance pushed him directly from sixth place into the top three.
As for the specific rankings of the three of them, not to mention the students, even Sheng Ziyou was quite curious.
“Now I announce the third place. He can sing, dance and… speak. He is——”
“Gu Yuzheng!” the students responded excitedly.
Among the three students, Gu Yuzheng had the strongest rapping ability, there was almost no suspense.
“Yes, he is Gu Yuzheng!”
Gu Yuzheng laughed, hugged the people around him tightly, and pounded their backs with his fists, to share his joy, but also to say goodbye.
The brothers he was holding beside him may very likely leave them today.
Qu Feng held the last two letters: “Okay, there are two left, so let’s take a look at the first one first?”
He suddenly blinked and teased, wanting to see the first place result first.
So, Qu Feng directly opened the first envelope, took a look, and raised his eyebrows.
Ran Youqing couldn’t help but turn his head to look, then smiled.
Jiao Xiu clenched his hands tightly and stared at the envelope.
On the contrary, Feng Yuanxuan was not nervous at all. He was a low-key person and was very happy to be in the top three.
First, he was not greedy.
“Then let me first talk about the first one’s characteristics. He is in the vocal group.”
There was a chorus of “cut” at the scene. These two were from the vocal group, and this feature seemed to have not been mentioned.
“His high notes rocked the house!”
“Ah——” a student let out a short cry of surprise.
It’s Feng Yuanxuan!
Feng Yuanxuan got first place!
Sheng Ziyou couldn’t help but nod. This person…well deserved the title.
“He is Feng Yuanxuan!”
As Qu Feng finished speaking, Jiao Xiu’s face stiffened for a moment, but soon he smiled, turned around, and hugged Feng Yuanxuan to congratulate him.
“Congratulations.” Jiao Xiu said with a chuckle, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Feng Yuanxuan was completely confused. He really couldn’t imagine that he was number one!
The result was almost a foregone conclusion. Jiao Xiu came in second. The two of them received their scores and joined the qualifying queue.
Among the remaining nineteen students, only one could stay.
There were many outstanding students among them, including Nie Yuanjie who was good at singing and dancing, Dou Xuan, the “big brother” who had debuted for many years and had great strength, Jing Xianglei who was low-key but had full professional ability, Yang Junkun who was good-looking and had a good personality, and so on.
There were so many outstanding students, but only one could stay.
After Fu Jiahuan left, Jing Xianglei and Dou Xuan stood together. They looked at each other and smiled, both feeling relieved.
A low-key little brother who had no camera presence but had perfect professional skills, and an older brother who was very powerful but was born at the wrong time.
Ran Youqing looked up at the sky, and Sheng Ziyou knew that his eyes were a little wet.
These two students were both students he liked and admired.
Qu Feng also let out a long sigh: “We must part ways one day. I declare that the eighteenth place is——”
Sheng Ziyou’s heart was beating like thunder. There was no sound on the entire mountaintop. The rising sun had already climbed quite high.
Nineteen students faced the sun. These energetic and dazzling young men shone brightly at this moment.
“Jing Xianglei!”
“Brother Lei——” Lu He rushed over with his face covered.
Sheng Ziyou loosened her clenched fists and let out a long sigh.
Ran Youqing hit his head with his fist, his face showing both sadness and joy.
“The future is still long. The students who are leaving should never forget today and the sun we saw this morning!”
The students who advanced did not need to speak, but the students who left were asked to say a few words each and then leave one by one.
The cable car was running over there. After saying goodbye to everyone, they walked towards the cable car and waved goodbye.
This goodbye meant goodbye to this show completely.
It was also possible that they would say goodbye to the audience completely.
Dou Xuan was the last to speak, and the cable car door was open waiting for him.
He blinked his red eyes, held the microphone, exhaled deeply, and then smiled.
“I’m leaving. It’s okay. I’m relieved.”
He was free, this was his last chance.
After ten years, he finally stopped struggling in this circle and tried hard to find his own way out.
Born at the wrong time, this was his fate, and today, he accepted it.
Dou Xuan handed the microphone to Qu Feng, waved his hand and turned to leave.
He stood in front of the cable car door, smiled at everyone, and then shouted–
“Don’t cry!”
Just these three words made many students, who were in tears, cover their faces and cry out loud.
This was the first time that Sheng Ziyou’s eyes turned red since she went up the mountain.
Dou Xuan debuted as a teenager, and when he left, he still looked like a teenager, full of youthful vigor and vitality.
——”After traveling for half a lifetime, I still feel like a young man when I return.”
