After listening to the first half of the song, Bai Lian's mood almost instantly fell to the bottom.

Even though he is not a very good songwriter yet, it is certain that the song written by Lu Wantang will most likely become popular and has the potential to hit the top three on the new song chart.

However, human joys and sorrows are not shared.

While he was in mixed emotions, those who were paying attention to the preliminary round of the college league seemed to feel that the winner had been decided when they saw that the song written by Bai Lian was temporarily ranked first among all the contestants.

Those who knew Bai Lian’s contact information even sent him messages of congratulations directly.

Even in the competition group, many people were affected and were discussing how good Bai Lian's song was.

"Half a day has passed, and Bai Lian is still first. It seems that he is the first in this preliminary round!"

"That's amazing, you're worthy of being a master in the composition department."

"Should we also praise Fang Shuyao? I feel like the two of you work well together?"

"There's no need to praise Fang Shuyao. Everyone knows that she's the best singer. It feels a bit redundant to praise her."

"To be honest, the fact that Bai Lian got first place must have a lot to do with Fang Shuyao, right? After all, Fang Shuyao is very popular in the two southeastern continents!"

"That's true, but cooperation is the result of a two-way choice. Fang Shuyao should have chosen the best song, right?"

"It's a pity that there's only one day. If there were a few more days, maybe Bai Lian's song could have made it to the top of the charts? But there's no way he could have topped the new song charts. Teacher Zigui is still better."

……

Most people seem to only see the results.

After listening to the song, Bai Lian checked the group chat messages and was filled with confusion.

What are these people talking about? It's only been half a day, and they think he's number one? Have they listened to the other contestants' songs carefully? Are there only so many people in the school who love to follow the trend?

Countless questions lingered in his mind.

Seeing all those compliments, and some people specifically tagging him and sending him "blessings", Bai Lian felt so embarrassed for the first time that he dug his toes into the ground.

If he could really maintain his first place, it would be fine if these people just congratulated him. He might even be quite happy in his heart.

But his chances of getting first place are shrinking!

Didn't you see that the song sung by Lu Wanxing is rising in the rankings at a very high speed? !

No one else could understand how speechless Bai Lian was.

Seeing that some people in the group were talking about himself and his new song, and some were praising it after some analysis, he couldn't help but make the first statement in the group.

Bai Lian: [Thank you for your support, but it’s not the last minute, I’m not number one yet, I hope you won’t spread rumors.]

This sentence was like a huge rock thrown into the lake, instantly making the entire group chat 'boil'.

"It's Bai Lian! I thought you wouldn't look at the group chat, but it turns out you've been peeking at the screen the whole time?"

"Are you being too modest? Now that you've been ranked first, how can you be considered a rumourmonger?"

"Are you all fans of Bai Lian? I think Bai Lian is right. Until the last moment, it is still unknown who will win..."

"It doesn't matter if he's a fan or not. People are saying this because they saw the ranking. Bai Lian is indeed number one, and the song he wrote is really nice."

"Maybe I'm not being modest?"

"Maybe Bai Lian listened to someone's song and felt that his first place was not so secure?"

"Isn't that possible? Bai Lian is quite famous in the composition department, and his homework is often specially analyzed by the teacher."

……

Maybe Bai Lian was too euphemistic.

——After all, if we directly say that Lu Wantang wrote better songs, his ranking will only drop faster.

Many people didn't understand what he really meant.

But there are also people like Bai Lian who are patiently prepared to listen to all the participating songs.

After learning that Bai Lian was temporarily ranked first, they all listened to Bai Lian's new song first.

After listening to it, those with higher appreciation ability, while affirming the quality of Bai Lian's new song in their hearts, couldn't help but feel that Bai Lian's ability to take first place had a lot to do with Fang Shuyao.

If someone else sang this song, it would never be possible for it to get first place so easily!

These people thought so, and then tacitly clicked on "Practicing Love", which is currently ranked second.

……

'Memory is really arrogant'

'Street lights illuminate the pain'

The second verse has a similar melody.

The lyrics personify memory and describe the troubles that memory brings to people in an extremely vivid way. The high level of the lyrics is beyond doubt.

'How many times have lovers looked at the moon together'

'How many times has it seen oblivion in the sky'

'How panicked'

Looking up at the moon from the street lamp, and then "seeing" our story from the perspective of the moon, it is not unique, many people have experienced it.

The lyrics have a very strong sense of imagery.

The "how much" of repetition undoubtedly emphasizes how long the time is and how deep the memory is.

'The sadness of practicing love'

'Learn to let go of old desires'

……

……

'I can't stand this'

The drum beats in the second chorus make people feel uneasy.

The narrative feeling of telling someone else's story in the previous paragraph has turned into reality at this moment, and the singer and the audience seem to have become characters in the story.

The end of the sentence is no longer filled with restrained sadness, the suppressed emotions are slowly getting out of control.

The bass sound suspended above the drum beats highlights the uneasiness and tension.

'Laughing and saying love makes people crazy'

'Crying and saying love makes people nervous'

'If you can't forget that person, surrender'

The vibrato and crying tone in this passage make people more empathetic and give people goose bumps.

'Practicing the joys and sorrows of love'

'Our efforts are not simple'

……

……

'I can't stand this'

The tone of the violin gradually rose, and then faded away, just like a love that ended without a result.

The whole song is roughly in the elegant key of E flat major. As the emotions in the main part slowly rise, the use of steps and leaps makes the emotions fluctuate, which also enhances the melody.

Not to mention the chorus, which uses the 4536 chord commonly used in pop songs. The composer is very skilled in using this chord, perfectly creating a specific emotional atmosphere.

Not only that, Lu Wanxing's singing can be described as brilliant.

Anyone who has listened to this song carefully will feel that Bai Lian’s first place ranking is already secured.

Unless this day passes quickly, there is a high probability that Lu Wantang will catch up. No, maybe he will definitely catch up!

After listening to the song sung by Lu Wanxing, someone was dissatisfied with the content of the group chat and directly posted:

"I recommend you listen to "Practicing Love" sung by Lu Wanxing, you will be pleasantly surprised:)"

This sentence made the original praise and congratulations to Bai Lian slowly disappear without a trace.

Instead, there is another debate about the first ownership.

However, this time, no one dared to underestimate Lu Wantang.

Even though in everyone's eyes, she was just a minor in composition, suspected of having used backdoors to enter the preliminary round, and had only released two or three songs.
