The 11th person to appear is Fang Shuyao.

Before this, she had joked with Lu Wanxing that she might be the last to appear, after all, this had been verified earlier.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the host picked her name from the remaining contestants.

Lu Wanxing blinked: "It seems that some words cannot be said."

For example, when you set a goal, once you say it, it will turn out to be the opposite of what it was.

Fang Shuyao pursed her lips and took a deep breath, "Then I'll go on stage first."

Her reaction seemed much better than before.

Lu Wanxing was about to make a few more jokes when he saw Fang Shuyao start to move her hands and feet awkwardly after taking only two steps, and she immediately shut up.

The two children nearby couldn't help but whisper, "Sister Shuyao walks so strangely!"

"Shh." Lu Wanxing put his index finger to his lips, signaling the two not to say anything more, let alone remind him.

"It will be fine after your sister Shuyao comes on stage."

Just as Lu Wanxing said, Fang Shuyao calmed down a lot as soon as she stepped onto the stage.

Especially after the prelude, her aura was almost fully released. As soon as she opened her mouth, a familiar feeling came to her, but also a refreshing feeling.

This song is still Bai Lian's work.

It’s just that the level of the lyrics of this song is not as good as his previous song, but he did put a lot of thought into the melody.

Perhaps considering that the second round mainly tests the singers' singing skills, Bai Lian did not hesitate to add difficulty to the melody.

Especially the continuous high notes in the chorus, the moment Fang Shuyao sang it, it shocked the whole audience.

Many teachers in the audience were either amazed or very satisfied.

Even Qin Liao sighed: "I didn't expect Bai Lian and Fang Shuyao to be such a good pairing."

Yuan Wei beside him nodded: "Yes, but Bai Lian's lyrics for this song still need to be polished."

"Maybe two days isn't enough." Another teacher in charge said, "Bai Lian relies on inspiration most of the time when writing songs. He can only finish a song in one go when he has inspiration."

The teacher in the back row heard the conversation, coughed twice, and asked curiously:

"This person on the stage should be the first place winner of the preliminary round, right? Professional singers who have debuted are different. Whether it's their stage presence or their singing, the difference from others is very obvious!"

The teacher beside her sighed:

"Of course. Without these skills, how could Fang Shuyao possibly beat Yan Sui?"

If Fang Shuyao didn't sing well, Yan Sui's fans would probably chase her and scold her until the end of time, and Yan Sui himself might not help to restrain his fans' words and actions.

"That's not necessarily true." Qin Liao said with a smile.

"Eh? Could there be something more powerful?"

"I do not believe."

"Come to think of it, the person who collaborated with Fang Shuyao was not Lu Wantang, but Bai Lian. Could it be that the student who collaborated with Lu Wantang is the one that the dean said might take first place?"

"Who is Lu Wantang?" The teacher who asked the question only teaches vocal music and usually pays more attention to singers.

"She is a student who is minoring in composition." The person next to her answered her, "Dean, you seem to be very optimistic about her?"

He was even optimistic that Lu Wantang was only a lyricist and composer, not a singer, which made Qin Liao have expectations for her collaborators.

Qin Liao smiled and said, "She has the ability."

"Since the dean has said so, we must investigate it carefully."

"With this attitude of the dean... aren't you worried that we will raise the selection standards?"

Qin Liao raised his eyebrows. Although he didn't respond, his calm look seemed to be saying "Do whatever you want".

This clearly shows that they feel that even if they conduct a rigorous and detailed examination and raise the selection standards, Lu Wantang and his collaborators will be able to satisfy them.

The teachers around were skeptical about this.

On the stage, after a long interlude, Fang Shuyao's singing had entered the second half.

Although Bai Lian's song has many flaws, the lyrics and music are tailor-made for Fang Shuyao's voice and singing style.

This makes her singing twice as beautiful.

The composition students sitting on both sides of the front row couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"As expected of Bai Lian, the melody of this song is so well written."

"It looks like Bai Lian will definitely be the one to take the spot on the representative team. There are only four spots left."

"There are only three left. Have you forgotten about Lu Wantang?"

"What if they don't perform well in the second round?"

"Hey! That's a bit too much. Everyone is looking forward to winning."

"It has to be Fang Shuyao. If anyone else were to sing this song, they would either not be able to sing it well or their singing would not sound good."

"Yes, yes, Bai Lian and Lu Wantang work really well together."

……

Even Bai Lian and Lu Wantang, who were sitting in the front row, could hear a few sporadic discussions from time to time.

Neither of them really cared about what others thought.

The former thinks that Lu Wantang is very powerful and those people are just jealous.

The latter was more focused on Fang Shuyao singing on the stage, and was also commenting on Bai Lian's new song in his heart.

Soon, the song ended and the teachers gave a rare and warm round of applause.

"Next, it's our 12th contestant—"

As the female host spoke, everyone looked at the big screen.

Regardless of whether they are singers or composers, none of them want their names to appear after Bai Lian and Fang Shuyao.

Some people even started praying.

"stop!"

At the host's command, the jumping names stopped changing instantly.

"Huh - luckily it wasn't us." Someone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it Yan Yu? He ranked very high in the first round, so he should be able to fight, right?"

"That's because he worked with Sang Yu in the first round. Look at his partners this round..."

Because Yan Yu’s collaborator was in the audience, the discussions soon died down.

As expected, Yan Yu's performance on stage made the teachers, who had been so enthusiastic about Fang Shuyao's singing, feel like they were poured with a bucket of cold water, and their reactions became much duller.

Yan Yu himself made a mistake and sang the second chorus too late.

While everyone felt regretful and puzzled, they also recognized Sang Yu's abilities.

Next, the 13th contestant who was to perform after Yan Yu was also determined after the male host's 'drawing'.

"Let us invite——"

"Lu Wanxing!"

All contestants knew that the person working with Lu Wanxing was none other than Lu Wantang, who had been quite controversial not long ago.

Regardless of what everyone was thinking, they were all curious or looking forward to what the second song Lu Wantang had prepared would be like.

"Speaking of which, Yan Yu is really unlucky. Fang Shuyao in front and Lu Wanxing in the back. Being surrounded by these two, the contrast is too obvious. How can he have a chance to join the representative team?"

"That is to say, even if the song written by Lu Wantang is not good, Lu Wanxing's singing skills are still very impressive."

"What a pity! I thought Yan Yu would definitely be able to join the representative team. He's pretty good, right?"

……

Amid the discussions, no one noticed that someone in the back row used the excuse of going to the restroom and slipped backstage.
