For the next ten minutes, Shengnian was very enthusiastic and kept chatting with Lu Wantang about various topics.

Lu Wantang occasionally responded with a few words, but spent most of the time listening.

I have to say, compared to the passionless and mechanical speeches of the leaders on the stage, Shengnian’s daily life was much more interesting.

I don’t know if he talks too much and too frequently, so that people around him don’t have the patience to listen to him.

Anyway, before Yuan Wei came back, Sheng Nian exchanged contact information with Lu Wantang on the grounds that they got along very well.

During this time, Lu Wantang also heard a small discussion behind him, in which the name of "Beizhou Conservatory of Music" appeared many times.

Lu Wantang leaned back slightly and could clearly hear what they were talking about.

"The one in front, with short brown-black hair and wearing an indigo suit, is the captain of the Beizhou Conservatory of Music? Isn't the captain Amy Yip? The teacher also said that Amy Yip is the top student in their school."

"Maybe Ye Zijin didn't want to be the captain, and this person just got lucky?"

"What kind of bargain is this? That guy's name seems to be Shengnian. I heard someone say that Ye Zijin privately admitted that she is not as good as him."

"Heard? Who told you that? It can't be some distorted rumor, right?"

"I heard it from my classmates, it's true."

"Your classmate? Which one are you?"

"Ah, I'm Zheng Chuxue from the Composition Department of Beizhou University. Nice to meet you."

"So you are Zheng Chuxue! You are the captain of Beizhou University, right? If you said that, then this rumor is very credible."

"But in her prime, she only released one song, right? She doesn't even have any works. How can she compare with Amy Yip? I don't understand!"

If there were question marks on several people's heads, they would have probably taken shape by now.

However, it was precisely because of their surprise that Lu Wantang was able to hear clearly what they were talking about.

The short-haired girl who spoke to them was Zheng Chuxue, who was ranked second on the composition list by Lu Wantang.

Judging from his appearance alone, he seems to be a person from a wealthy family, well-educated, and his every move is elegant and intellectual.

However, what she didn't expect was that the focus of their discussion soon shifted from Shengnian to herself.

"Who is that person next to Shengnian? Is he from which school in Nanzhou?"

"She shouldn't be from Nanzhou. Not long ago, all the contestants from Nanzhou gathered together. She's so beautiful, there's no way I don't remember her."

"She's not from Beizhou either. I haven't seen her information."

"Then she can only be from Dongzhou School. There doesn't seem to be anyone worth noting in Dongzhou School. Shengnian was talking and laughing with her. Maybe he was just trying to flirt with her?"

"What? I thought that people who keep company with good people are good and bad people are bad. When you are in your prime, you will communicate more with people of the same level."

"That is to say, a pretty face is nothing more than a fragile vase..."

"Maybe it's a honey trap? Don't just climb over tonight—"

Lu Wantang had a feeling that these people would say something unpleasant sooner or later, as they were not good enough. She had already prepared for this and even planned to memorize their faces.

Unexpectedly, the person behind me suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his words.

She couldn't help but look back.

Perhaps because the movement was too big and obvious, Shengnian next to him also turned around.

They saw the boy sitting in the same row of seats as them, biting a huge apple.

The apple was obviously forced in there by someone. If it had been pushed in any further, the jaw would most likely have been dislocated.

The culprit was smiling gently.

"No one who is well-educated would denigrate women."

"Student, you need to be taught a lesson."

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself."

The boy was very dissatisfied when he heard this.

The tall and strong man next to Zheng Chuxue, who had originally had no sense of existence, was now counting his fingers and staring at him with a bad look.

The boy immediately became timid and even put down his hand when he wanted to take out the apple.

Sheng Nian whispered beside him, "That should be a bodyguard, right? Wow! He brought a bodyguard with him to the lottery."

"And it looks like a good show just happened over there."

Lu Wantang hummed, and just as he was about to look away, his eyes met Zheng Chuxue's.

She nodded slightly and resumed her original position.

Sheng Nian, on the other hand, took a few more glances and muttered, "This person looks familiar. I seem to have seen her somewhere."

“The one who impressed me the most was probably also a composer.”

"It is indeed the composer." Lu Wantang said, "Her name is Zheng Chuxue."

"Huh? It's her? Do you know her?"

"I don't know them. I just remember some of their general information."

"You have a good memory then! But I didn't expect that the captains of most of the participating teams from different schools are composers."

"Ah."

Lu Wantang returned to his previous state of occasionally responding.

Yuan Wei didn't come back until the draw officially began.

At this time, the name of the first school has appeared on the big screen on the stage.

Sheng Nian stood up immediately and smiled at Lu Wantang: "I'm going to draw a lot and will be back soon."

Yuan Wei glanced at the young man's back and said, "Is that the captain of the Beizhou Conservatory of Music? Do you know him?"

Lu Wantang nodded: "His name is Shengnian."

"Why not Amy Yip?" Yuan Wei asked the same question.

"It is said that he is more responsible."

Yuan Wei did not comment, but only said, "It is a good thing to communicate more with peers. We can learn from each other."

"Ah."

While the two were talking, Shengnian had already drawn the lot.

Beizhou Conservatory of Music drew the letter C and the number 6.

This means they are in Group C in the group stage.

The order of appearance for the exhibition match is 6.

After Shengnian came back, he smiled proudly and said, "It seems that I am lucky today. 6 is a very auspicious number."

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Chuxue also came on stage.

She drew the letter B and the number 10.

"I'm in Group B in the group stage, and I'll be the tenth one to go on stage in the exhibition match."

Shengnian nodded and watched the representative from Tamagawa University go on stage.

"Tamagawa, they are in Group A in the group stage, and they are the 18th to play in the exhibition match. Their luck is average."

After saying that, he suddenly turned to Lu Wantang and said, "It seems that the first 10 schools that come on stage to draw lots will not be assigned to the same group."

Lu Wantang tilted his head.

Sheng Nian thought she didn't understand, so he explained, "The order of the draw this time is based on the odds ranking."

“The higher the odds, the later the draw order.”

Lu Wantang nodded, which means that the order of the draw is also based on the "strength ranking" recognized by the public.

It really is - it's even more annoying.

Lu Wantang quickly concealed his emotions, but Shengnian didn't notice and continued to talk about his speculation.

"The authorities may have made such a 'fine-tuning' for the sake of fairness. You are from Linhai University, right? It seems that there is a chance that we will be in the same group."

"Only two teams from each group can advance, so you better do your best!"

Cheering for your opponent means looking down on yourself?

Lu Wantang couldn't help but turn his head and look at him.

Seeing that Shengnian's eyes were full of sincerity and had no other meaning, he suddenly smiled.

"Thank you. We will."
