“Wei Kang and Ai Wan? Is this even legal? How could they allow Senior Song's own disciples to join this competition? They will obviously dominate the entire competition!” Xuan Wuhan complained in a sighing voice, and he continued, "I just hope they are no better than Yuan."
"I've never heard of them playing before, but I don't think Disciple Yuan will be left behind them." Elder Shan said, continuing with a smile on her pretty face, "After all, she defeated their master, Senior Song, in a one-on-one battle."
While the audience was talking about Wei Kang and Ai Wan, Song Ling’er spoke first for the first time, "You may start."
The place instantly became quiet, and everyone there looked at Wei Kang who was the first to leave with an intense gaze.
After taking a deep breath, Wei Kang moved his hand in an elegant and precise manner, playing three musical notes in succession, his aura emanating with confidence and elegance.
Ting~ Ting~ Ting~
Three beautiful musical tones that appealed to his listeners echoed in the area.
“Aaahh Beautiful music notes”
"As expected of Senior Fairy Song”'s student she is on a completely different level compared to the other participants …"
"Indeed .. No one else has managed to make my heart tremble in such a way."
A while later, Senior Zou and Elder Jing turned to look at Song Ling’er, giving him the opportunity to leave first as they were his students.
However, Song Ling’er remained silent, his intentions clear.
Senior Zou and Elder Jing exchanged glances before nodding.
The next moment, Senior Zou spoke with a smile on his face, “That's great, Junior Wei. I expected nothing less from one of Senior Song's disciples. Even though it was only three notes of music, I was able to fully grasp your deep understanding of the zither with that brief appearance earlier. I'll give you ten points. ”
The crowd cheered in excitement after hearing Senior Zou give his first perfect score, which was foreseen.
“I agree with Senior Zou. It's just three notes of music, but I've wanted to hear more. Good job." Elder Jing praised Wei Kang.
“Thank you, Senior.” Wei Kang stood up and bowed to them before turning to look at Song Ling’er who had yet to give his assessment.
After a moment of awkward silence, Song Ling’er finally spoke in an indifferent voice, "Do you remember what I said about being complacent?"
“I know, Guru.” Wei Kang nodded, feeling an unpleasant feeling coming from Song Ling’er's tone.
“Then what was that trash? I've heard better voices than pigs. What a great disappointment to you, Wei Kang. Zero points.” Song Ling’er said in a cold voice.
“Poin Z-Zero?”
Everyone there including Wei Kang himself was confused by Song Ling’er's harsh judgment. How could such an outstanding performance be worth less than another one that was obviously worse, let alone zero points?
“Maybe he was very rude to her because of their teacher and student relationship. You often see this” when the teacher intentionally demeans their own students so that they can grow stronger and faster.”
While everyone there felt that Wei Kang deserved a much better point than zero, who would dare to oppose Song Ling’er's decision? Regarding his own students, no less.
"Continue." Song Ling’er said to her a moment later.
"Yes sir."
Ai Wan nodded, and she proceeded to take 30 seconds of full-time preparation to calm her mind and focus on the zither in front of her.
After taking a deep breath, Ai Wan played the three musical notes in a similar way to Wei Kang, but produced a completely different sound, even giving it its unique atmosphere.
The audience could feel their body relax after hearing these musical notes.
“Sound so strong yet peaceful How did she create such a beautiful sound?”
“I almost fell asleep after listening to his music record!”
Some time later, Senior Zou spoke with a smile on his face, “Great! It's only been half a year since I last heard you play and you've improved a lot since then! That's definitely 10 points from me! ”
"I can't speak, really." Elder Jing spoke next, and he said, "This is also 10 points certain of me."
After the two judges finished their appraisals, everyone turned to look at Song Ling’er, and Ai Wan gulped nervously.
After a moment of silence, Song Ling’er said in a calm voice, “I'm glad to see that at least one of my students is listening to my words. Nine points.”
A bright smile appeared on Ai Wan's face after hearing Song Ling’er's decision, and she immediately bowed, "Thank you, Master!"
‘Che ..’ Wei Kang sneered inwardly when Ai Wan was not scolded as if she had been humiliated in front of millions by their master, feeling extremely salty.
After Song Ling’er's disciple turn, the next hundred teams failed to produce anything worthy of praise, as the standards had been raised very high by Ai Wan and Wei Kang regardless of the score.
In fact, it was so boring that some people started to fall asleep.
Half an hour later, three unexpected beautiful musical notes echoed in the area, sweeping away the audience's drowsiness in an instant.
"W-Who played those three notes?" Someone in the audience asked.
“It was a beautiful young elf” I think it was Fairy Fei of the Dragon Essence Temple.”
"Oh! I know about him! He finished 7th in the last competition!”
"Wow! She was not only beautiful but also an outstanding zither expert! I think Senior disciple Fairy Song finally has a real opponent in this sitar competition! ”
“Are you sure he only ranks 7th? That doesn't seem right! The three musical notes were no less majestic than Ai Wan or Wei Kang, who could easily reach the top 3 if they participated in the competition!”
"I'm sure! I can't even imagine how much he's been training since then for him to reach this level in such a short time!”
The audience was fascinated by Fei Yuyan's appearance, completely unaware of the fact that her improvement was due to practicing with Yuan, and it was only for one short week!
