Chapter 229 Burning with Passion! A song, "A Pure Heart," ignites the entire venue!

That's it!

Wang Ye finished reading the song's description.

As mentioned above, this song is known as the "Chinese rock version of Forrest Gump" in a parallel world. The entire song has no fancy or pretentious rhetoric, relying entirely on unreserved sincerity and a crazy madness that lives to the death!

Especially the iconic, almost heart-wrenching, broken-voice roar in the chorus, which directly shoves the core spirit of "rather than lingering on, burn brightly" into the soul!

To use it as the grand finale at the 20th anniversary celebration?

This isn't a school song at all; it's like dropping a mental bomb in the auditorium!

"Bought it!"

[Ding! 1000 Godly Coins deducted!]

[Successfully purchased the complete copyright and master tapes of the hit song "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart"!]

[Automatically synchronizing with the national copyright database; full scores for all instruments have been sent to the host's personal terminal!]

The massive melodic lines and the soaring distorted soundscape of the electric guitar flowed wildly through the nervous system.

Wang Ye felt a surge of heat coursing through his body.

"Next Friday, things are going to get interesting."

Wang Ye laughed, slammed on the gas, and roared away.

……

Time flies.

A whole week flew by in the midst of intense, closed-door rehearsals.

In the past few days, the soundproof door to the music club's activity room has hardly been opened.

Yu Hongyao and Luo Ning went from being skeptical at first, to feeling a chill run down their spines when they received the full score, and then being so shocked by the lyrics during their first rehearsal that they trembled all over.

The two stunning beauties looked at Wang Ye with eyes that had completely turned into fanatical worship.

Wang Ye could point out that the bassist was half a beat too slow, without even looking at the sheet music, just by closing his eyes. He could pinpoint every chord syncopation and every accented bass note.

His masterful musical talent completely overwhelmed the core members of the music club, who revered him as a god.

……

Before you knew it, it was Friday evening.

The 20th Anniversary Celebration Gala of Kede College has officially begun!

A large auditorium on campus with a capacity of several thousand people!

Looking around, all I could see were dark, densely packed heads.

The first three rows of the auditorium were filled with senior directors of Northern Tianyuan Education Group, leaders of the college's Party Committee, heads of various departments, as well as well-known alumni and business representatives who were invited back to the school.

Behind them were students from all departments across the university, waving glow sticks and banners, creating a deafening din.

In the backstage dressing room.

Many actors were nervously adjusting their costumes.

The biggest topic of discussion at the entire party had already exploded in various class groups and campus forums!

[Holy crap! Did you hear?! The grand finale is sung by Chairman Wang himself!!]

[Is it true?! Wang Ye, who's worth hundreds of millions and brought Gao Qiqiang to life, is going to sing on stage?!]

[I heard it's an original hardcore rock song that's never been released before! The entire music club provided the backing track!]

[Ahhh! Qiang Ge is going to sing again! I've been listening to "Sunny Day" from the welcome party on repeat every day, and tonight I'm going to fight tooth and nail to get a front-row seat!]

[Many female fans have already unfurled banners! Tonight, no one will steal the spotlight from my Brother Qiang!]

On the VIP viewing area on one side of the auditorium.

Xu An'an, wearing a light yellow fitted sweatshirt, was craning her neck excitedly to look around, a lollipop in her mouth.

Sitting next to her was Su Qingyan, dressed in an elegant trench coat.

Su Qingyan's posture was elegant and aloof, but her beautiful eyes were fixed on the gap in the stage curtain from beginning to end, with a soft light hidden in her eyes.

The two of them took a taxi from their own school to see Wang Ye's performance.

"Qingyan, what do you think Wang Ye is going to sing tonight?"

Xu An'an chewed the lollipop and muttered to herself.

"This guy is so secretive, he spends all his time in the school's music room."

"If he doesn't sing well, I'll beat him to a pulp when I get home tonight!"

Su Qingyan smiled slightly and spoke softly.

"When has anything he's ever produced ever disappointed us?"

……

The first half of the gala proceeded smoothly as planned.

First, the school leaders took the stage and delivered a formal speech that lasted for twenty minutes, with only sparse applause from the audience.

Following this were folk dances, poetry recitations, skits, and crosstalk performances from various departments.

The program was unremarkable, and many students in the audience had already started looking down at their phones or dozing off.

Until 9:40 p.m.

All the overhead lights in the entire auditorium suddenly went out without warning!

Snapped!

The entire venue was plunged into deathly darkness!

The thousands of teachers and students who were originally drowsy were suddenly startled and raised their heads in unison!

next second!

Rumble—!!

A burst of blood-red flames suddenly erupted on the huge 4K ice screen directly behind the stage!

Two white beams of light, as sharp as swords, pierced the darkness and struck the center of the stage!

The curtain rises!

A fully-staffed live rock band was suddenly presented to everyone!

On the left, Luo Ning, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, wearing a leather jacket and shorts, held a shiny black Fender four-string bass in her hand, exuding a cool and fierce aura!

On the right, Yu Hongyao took off her usual conservative trench coat and put on a tailor-made black fitted modified cheongsam. The hem of the cheongsam fluttered gently in the breeze from the fan, and her slender fingers pressed on a red top-of-the-line Nord synthesizer keyboard!

The drummer sits behind a high platform, his two hammers suspended in the air!

And in the very center of the stage!

Wang Ye wore a clean and crisp all-black work shirt, with the cuffs rolled up to his forearms, revealing his well-defined and muscular forearms.

He wore dark sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and his expression was calm and nonchalant.

A scarlet Gibson limited edition heavy metal electric guitar was slung across his chest!

The moment the beam of light fell on him, his flawless, top-tier handsome face was magnified infinitely on the big screen!

"Wang Ye——!!"

"Brother Qiang—!!"

"Aaaaaah! Chairman Wang is so incredibly handsome!!"

The thousands of students in the audience went completely crazy!

The deafening screams and cheers instantly ripped off the ceiling of the auditorium like a tsunami!

The middle-aged directors of Tianyuan Group in the front row pushed up their glasses in fright, their faces filled with horror.

Wang Ye didn't utter a single unnecessary word.

He raised his hand and gently placed his index finger to his lips.

"Shhh."

With just one gesture, the overwhelming aura emanating from the large screen instantly silenced the noisy auditorium within two seconds!

Wang Ye casually placed one hand on the standing microphone, his deep gaze sweeping over the sea of ​​people below the stage through his dark glasses, revealing a carefree smile.

A deep, mellow voice, transmitted through top-of-the-line recording equipment, boomed into everyone's eardrums like a subwoofer:

"I heard that the school leaders and some old fogies want a proper, eulogistic 20th anniversary song."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the department leaders and board members in the front row froze instantly, while the students in the back row were already twitching with excitement.

Wang Ye chuckled lightly, his tone casual, yet every word carried an arrogant air of shattering all rules:

"But I think that youth is never a rehearsed script, much less a compromise of following the rules."

"It should be the wildness of living towards death, the courage to never kneel before fate even if it means getting hurt."

His eyes suddenly sharpened, and his voice, like a declaration of war, resounded throughout the entire auditorium:

"A song titled 'Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart'—"

"This is for all of you in the audience who refuse to accept your fate!"

Wang Ye lowered his head, his long, strong right index finger and thumb gripping the paddle tightly.

A sudden downward cut at the wrist!

Clang—!!

A high-pitched, sharp electric guitar solo with an extreme metallic overdrive and tearing sensation pierced everyone's eardrums like a red-hot heavy sword!

Immediately afterwards!

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The bass drum of the jazz drum set off like a muffled thunderclap, and the low bass in Luo Ning's hands rolled across the ground like a tidal wave crashing against the shore!

Yu Hongyao's synthesizer strings unfold a vast and magnificent backdrop!

The prelude, though only eight bars long, was so intensely powerful that it made everyone in the audience's scalps tingle!

Wang Ye stepped in front of the upright condenser microphone and sang the first line of the lyrics:

Where exactly is this world filled with flowers...?

"If it really exists, then I will definitely go..."

"I want to stand on the highest peak there..."

"I don't care if it's a cliff or a steep slope—!!"

The first line of the verse lands!

The hairs on the bodies of all two thousand people in the audience stood on end!

There was absolutely no affected or pretentious whining!

That straightforward, raw, yet resolute voice, carrying the power of facing death to live, struck the hearts of every college student like a heavy hammer through the sixteen line array speakers on site!

Several department leaders who had been watching the spectacle with their arms crossed suddenly sat up straight, their eyes wide open!

Wang Ye's fingers flew across the strings, the strumming rhythm becoming increasingly dense, his emotions building up layer by layer, like the surging tide before a storm!

"Live life to the fullest, love with all your might, even if it means sacrificing your life..."

"I don't seek anyone's approval, I just want to be true to myself..."

"I have never chosen to give up on my ideals..."

Even on the darkest, most gloomy days—!!

"Maybe I just don't have the talent..."

"But I have the naivety to dream..."

"I will prove it... with my whole life—!!"

"Maybe I'm just clumsy with my hands..."

"But I am willing to keep exploring..."

"Give your all in your youth...so you have no regrets!!"

As the drumbeats accelerated wildly, the air pressure in the venue plummeted to an extreme!

Everyone's heart was in their throat, and blood rushed back to their heads!

In that very instant!

Wang Ye suddenly ripped off his coat!

His right arm swung up in mid-air in a sweeping motion like a windmill!

Behind them, Yu Hongyao and Luo Ning's harmonies rose up as if the sky had shattered!

refrain!

A god-level nuclear explosion has arrived!

Wang Ye tilted his head back, veins bulging on his neck, his masterful singing skills having completely broken through the limits!

That wasn't a delicate falsetto produced in a greenhouse; it was a broken roar, a piercing scream that punched and roared at fate with a signature sense of tearing apart!

"Run forward—!!"

"Facing cold stares and ridicule—!!"

"How can one truly appreciate the vastness of life without experiencing hardship?!"

"Fate cannot force us to kneel and beg for mercy—!!"

Even if my arms are stained with blood—!!

Rumble—!!!

The moment the words "Run forward!" were shouted out!

The air inside the entire auditorium seemed to ignite instantly!

With a loud bang!

The thousands of students who were sitting in the audience all jumped up from their chairs almost simultaneously!

Everyone's eyes were bloodshot, their bodies were trembling, and goosebumps were erupting from their scalps all the way to their heels!

"Holy crap—!!"

"What the hell is this?!"

Countless boys in the back row roared!

Several elderly professors in the front row were so excited that they were trembling and their eyes were moist!

On stage, Wang Ye was unrestrained and wild, the guitar strings vibrating wildly at his fingertips, exuding an arrogant and domineering aura!

The singing continued, the heart-wrenching sound waves soaring straight to the sky!

Keep running—!!

"With the pride of a child—!!"

"How can you see the brilliance of life without persevering to the very end?!"

"Rather than merely prolonging my existence..."

"Let's burn brightly—!!"

"It will sprout again someday—!!"

"For the sake of what's beautiful in my heart..."

"Never compromise...until we grow old—!!"

The final note, accompanied by the sharp, sustained whistling of the guitar and the booming of the heavy drum, brought it to a complete close!

Wang Ye raised the electric guitar high with one hand, large beads of sweat sliding down his hard jawline, his chest heaving violently.

On stage, Yu Hongyao placed her hands on the piano keys, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, gazing intently at the man who seemed like a god.

Luo Ning held Beth tightly, panting heavily, his body limp.

offstage.

Absolute silence for a full five seconds.

immediately!

boom--!!!!

Thunderous applause, frantic stomping, and heart-wrenching screams erupted throughout the auditorium like a volcanic eruption!

"Wang Ye!!"

"Wang Ye!!"

"Rather than linger on in vain, burn brightly!"

Thousands of people raised their arms and shouted in unison, the sound almost lifting the roof off!

In the VIP seats, Xu An'an wiped away her tears while clapping frantically until her voice was hoarse.

Su Qingyan gazed at Wang Ye, who was the center of attention under the spotlight, her eyes glistening with tears, and a beautiful smile curving her lips.

【Ding! 】

Wang Ye glanced at the crowd below the stage and began to speak:

"On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the school, I wish Kede College continued success and prosperity."

"But once you step out of this door, don't become a potted plant in a greenhouse; go and be a wildfire that burns across the wilderness for me."

He casually flicked the guitar pick towards the roaring crowd below, a wild and unrestrained smile on his face:

"The show's over. The world is vast; it's your time to make it! Go and explore!"
