Get the perfect music system at the start

Their strength is undeniable, but they are the second contestant to be challenged due to relatively low online popularity.

The camera panned to the dynamic little box in the other dimension.

The dance steps unfolded instantly, and the vibrant music ignited the entire venue. Chenchen Li Jiachen excitedly exclaimed, "Conquer everything with your strength! You're the most dazzling star tonight!"

The audience screamed continuously, and the cool performance made the live broadcast room boil with excitement, with comments flying everywhere.

After the competition, the number of people who stood up to challenge the competitor stunned the audience.

Looking at everyone who had stood up, Zhang Dada said in surprise, "Cui Zhixuan and Xu Fan from the talent track, Yang Yuhao and Deng Jiachen from the appearance track, and all the other contestants, are you all going to challenge the Little Box?"

Everyone's answer was exactly the same: Yes!

Just then, Li Jiachen, the mentor of the star contestant, suddenly stood up and said, "I think you have all underestimated the power of Little Box. You think he comes from another dimension, you think he is artificial intelligence and therefore look down on him. You will suffer the consequences."

Xue Laiyi shook his head and said, "Actually, I think Chenchen is wrong. Xiao Hezi's strength is indeed obvious, but the strength of our Duxiu track's contestants is not bad either. Don't forget Xu Fan's existence."

Li Jiachen said, "I don't deny that Xu Fan's songs are very good, but not every song can conquer all of us. At least in my opinion, his earlier songs like 'If One Day I Become Very Rich' or 'Feeling Like a Superstar' are worthless. Whether it's the arrangement or the lyrics, they seem very amateurish, you know?"

Xue Laiyi stood up and said, "We are a music program. Do we only want flashy performances? I can hear his attitude towards the song and his love for music in every song by Xu Fan. A toast to the sunrise, a toast to the moonlight, a toast to freedom, a toast to death. Such touching lyrics, is this what you call a novice?"

Li Jiachen said, "Three years ago, I was also a contestant on a variety show. Now that I'm in this position, I have to be responsible for the music. I don't deny that the lyrics of 'Xiao Chou' are indeed classic and deeply rooted in people's hearts, even keeping countless musicians up all night. But in terms of arrangement, I still think Xu Fan is still lacking."

When Zhang Dada, the host, saw the two arguing and even sparking some conflict, he hadn't had a chance to speak when Xue Laiyi spoke up again: "Xu Fan has the right and the ability to challenge Xiao Hezi. I think his song is already very good. When we pursue music, we should sometimes pay more attention to the emotions that music conveys. I believe that in terms of emotion, Xiao Hezi from another dimension is no match for Xu Fan."

In an instant, anger erupted.

No one knows why Li Jiachen suddenly lost her temper, and why she was so arrogant, with her target being Xu Fan.

Xu Fan, sitting in the back, was also somewhat surprised.

I don't think I have any connection with Li Jiachen. Could it really be because my song is so bad?

Of course, he couldn't help but feel grateful to his mentor, Xue Laiyi, for at least standing up for him when facing the strong-willed Li Jiachen.

At the same time, the live stream room also became lively.

"Holy crap, they said they'd challenge us to a fight on live stream tonight, and they actually did it."

"Dr. Xue, we support you. Who can blame us for liking superstar Kris Wu?"

"Don't be afraid, Chenchen, your support team is ready."

"Breaking news from 'The Coming One': The talent mentors and the strength mentors actually did this kind of thing over this matter."

"Hey upstairs, explain yourself! What exactly is going on?"

The live stream was buzzing with excitement, which the judges were well aware of. Yang Xiaomi quickly stood up and said, "We are currently at the competition venue, and all our footage is being broadcast live. Please be mindful of how you speak."

Li Jiachen looked at Xue Laiyi, suddenly smiled and said, "Just kidding, everyone. Skill will determine everything. Little Box's song is really good. Please continue the battle."

Xue Laiyi returned to his seat without saying a word.

Zhang Dada subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead; the scene just now was indeed quite tense.

These scenes were all broadcast live.

Although the production team changed the camera immediately during the argument, the sound was clearly not turned off.

Since it's a live broadcast, any unexpected situation could happen.

So Zhang Dada was indeed nervous at this moment, but his years of experience as a host allowed him to quickly adjust his state and say, "Now let's invite the next challenger, our beauty star mentor Yang Xiaomi, to make your choice."

Yang Xiaomi said, "In the beauty category, it's not just about looks; you also need to prove your abilities. Deng Jiachen, please begin your performance!"

Deng Jiachen is indeed good-looking, but after he sang, Xu Fan couldn't help but shake his head. Zhong Yixuan next to him whispered, "This song is not suitable for him at all."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "So, sometimes the best songs are the ones that suit you best."

Zhong Yixuan nodded thoughtfully.

After Deng Jiachen finished his song, Zhang Dada handed over the choice to Xue Laiyi as the next challenger.

Xue Laiyi looked them over for a while, then suddenly turned to Xu Fan and asked, "Why do you want to challenge Little Box?"

Xu Fan thought for a moment and said, "It's getting late, I want to go home as soon as possible."

Xue Laiyi was taken aback and asked, "Go back? Go back where?"

Xu Fan said, "Home! Where else can I go?"

Xue Laiyi opened his mouth, speechless after being rebuked, and could only take a deep breath and say, "You're the one."

Xu Fan stood up and walked calmly and gently onto the stage.

The audience screamed suddenly, and the live stream chat was flooded with comments.

Xu Fan's words were naturally broadcast live. He appeared quite shy on camera, but spoke with such confidence, as if he really just wanted to go home.

Of course, this is not the main reason why viewers at the venue and those outside the online live stream went crazy.

What truly drove them crazy was the song "Xiao Chou," which filled countless netizens with anticipation for Xu Fan, and Xu Fan's trip to Zhoucheng to do volunteer work further gained him countless fans.

===Chapter 38 A Song for Mom===

Xu Fan stood on the stage.

Zhang Dada came over and said, "Little Box is the most special one in our Tomorrow's Child. As someone from another dimension, it is loved by countless netizens. Xu Fan, let me ask you, are you confident that you can beat him?"

Xu Fan, holding the microphone and adjusting his black-rimmed glasses, said, "I feel that competing against him would be like me representing humanity against a singer from the world of anime and manga. It seems only right that I should beat him."

Zhang Dada was stunned for a moment, while countless people in the audience burst into laughter again.

Zhang Dada looked at Xu Fan and said, "It's truly great that you can represent all of humanity and do something for the first time."

Xue Laiyi, for some unknown reason, suddenly burst into laughter like a duck, causing the entire audience to laugh along.

The live stream room was filled with a barrage of comments.

"Superstar is so cute. I can almost see him raising his middle finger and saying: I'm going to lead humanity to destroy you."

"Is Xue Dada trying to make me laugh to death? That laughter made me burst out laughing."

"Isn't anime good? I just like little boxes, and yes, I support superstars!"

"The person upstairs is a big liar. He made me like the little box too. Fine, I'll support the superstar too."

"I like anime, but I don't support the little box."

After Zhang Dada eased the atmosphere a bit, he looked at Xu Fan and noticed that Xu Fan was gripping his microphone tightly with both hands. So he said to the camera, "Superstar, after your song 'Sorrow' came out last week, it garnered over 300 million plays on Tencent Music in just one week. Xiao Zihan, a top-tier singer in my WeChat Moments, called me immediately and said, 'I'm releasing an album, I need to contact him, could you give me his WeChat?'"

Upon hearing this, the audience screamed again, and the live broadcast room cheered as well. Zhang Dada continued, "Xiao Zihan asked me several questions in a row. I can only say that I don't have WeChat, so I can only ask for you. We have also seen many stars and singers in our music industry praising your songs. They are all saying that Xue Laiyi's track has produced a singing god, and his songs can touch people's hearts."

The camera focused on Xue Laiyi, whose eyes were full of encouragement.

The camera focused on Xu Fan, whose eyes were blank, as if he was wondering if Zhang Dada was talking about him.

Zhang Dada finally turned his gaze to Xu Fan and said, "Superstar, with so much praise, wouldn't you like to join one of the nine major idol labels?"

Xu Fan gripped the microphone tightly, put it to his lips, and said earnestly, "I want to get in."

Zhang Dada continued, "Then you must choose to defeat the little box. Are you ready?"

Xu Fan nodded and said, "I believe my emotions are definitely more intense than those of artificial intelligence."

This is not only due to his self-confidence, but also because he gained a certain singing bonus during his previous missions.

Zhang Dada suddenly looked at Xue Laiyi in the Star Recommendation Seat and said, "So, Xue Laiyi from the Duxiu track, what would you like to say to our superstar before the competition?"

Xue Laiyi looked at Xu Fan seriously and said, "Xu Fan, you are under a lot of pressure right now. Because you sang a divine song like 'Xiao Chou' in the last round, everyone has high expectations for you. If the next song is not good, everyone will lose their expectations for you. So whether you are a singing god or a demigod, you really need to put in more effort than others and write better songs."

Xu Fan nodded and said, "Thank you, Teacher Xue, no problem."

Xue Laiyi didn't say anything more, but just made a cheering gesture. Zhang Dada then asked, "So, superstar, what kind of song are you bringing today?"

Xu Fan looked at the camera, gripped the microphone tightly, and looked somewhat melancholy behind his black-rimmed glasses. He said, "I'd like to share a song I wrote for my mother, 'When You're Old,' with you all."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience screamed.

Some fans spontaneously created a catchphrase and shouted wildly at the scene.

"Salute to the superstar! 666! No wrinkles, no weight gain!"

The song "Sorrow" has resonated deeply with countless people, prompting them to reflect on the word "respect." One cup is a toast to freedom, another to death, and now, fans are offering a toast to their superstar.

The viewers in the live stream immediately started spamming comments.

The barrage of comments was uniformly in praise of the superstar, saying "666, may he never get wrinkles or gain weight."

Xu Fan held his guitar, then looked up at the audience, and in the camera's view, he was looking at all the netizens.

clap clap clap!

The gazes that seemed to await applause drove the fans wild, eliciting continuous applause.

The music that had been prepared beforehand suddenly started playing, and Xu Fan prepared to sing.

The song "When You Are Old" is one that he bought for 500,000 yuan in the Qingliangzhi Mall. The melody of the song is very gentle and heartwarming.

Most importantly, he had always wanted to write a song for his mother, but he found it difficult to write one every time he picked up a pen. However, this song made him think of his mother.

The guitar and accompaniment started almost simultaneously.

The guitar part of this song is not in the accompaniment.

Xu Fan is now a guitar master, so the moment the guitar music started, the audience in the live stream and at the venue were instantly surprised. Xue Laiyi, sitting in the star recommendation seat, exclaimed in surprise, "His guitar playing is better than before, did you notice?"

Yang Xiaomi said, "Although I don't know much about guitar, his expression seemed a little different when he played it. Maybe it's because this song was written for his mother!"

The live stream chat room erupted in excitement.

Xu Fan was self-taught in guitar before, but now he plays guitar with a sense of complete mastery.

The identity of a guitar master is indeed different.

Xu Fan's voice finally emerged softly from his throat, and the scene instantly fell into complete silence.

When you are old, your hair is white, and you are sleepy

When you are old and can no longer walk, dozing by the fire, reminiscing about your youth.

How many loved your moments of glad grace, and admired your beauty, whether sincerely or feigned.

Only one person still loves your devout soul and the wrinkles on your aging face.

The moment the sound appeared, Xue Laiyi stood up abruptly, but kept his body still without making a sound.
