Chapter 494: Chapter 470: Bombing (Added more updates for Separation Fate)_1
“Whether dictated by predictions or pessimism, everything still comes down to the competition itself in the end.
The next day.
Lin Yuan sat in Lil Goodoong’s car, heading to the music center to prepare for the third recording of ‘The Masked Singer’.
During the drive.
Lil Goodoong was quite indignant: “Those people went too far, Mr. Lin shouldn’t be upset for them.”
Lin Yuan: “…”
The one who was really upset was Lil Goodoong.
Lin Yuan himself didn’t feel much.
Of course, Lin Yuan would read the comments online, and he even liked many of them as a guest, some of the evaluations were very objective.
Yes.
If his singing skills don’t improve, he wouldn’t last long in the competition, no matter how many trump cards he has, they can’t cover up the deficiency in his singing skills.
But some comments are not fair!
Like what Leng Quan said on his live broadcast, Lin Yuan doesn’t believe that with his professionalism, he couldn’t tell anything about the third episode, he doesn’t understand why he chose to play dumb.

While Lin Yuan isn’t that good, he isn’t that bad either. Even without the skill book from the Gold Treasure Chest to enhance his vocal skills, Lin Yuan was confident he wouldn’t be eliminated in the third round.
Also, not all powerful songs require extremely high singing skills. A second-rate singing skill is enough to deliver.
For example…
And sometimes when singing, emotion may be even more important than singing skills. What’s the difference between that and a singing machine, if you only have singing skills?
In any case, Lin Yuan has decided!
This episode today, he’s going to completely reverse some people’s impressions of his performances in the previous two episodes!
With that in mind.
The car arrived at the production team.
When Lin Yuan got out of the car wearing his mask, there was a sudden burst of cheers, far louder than the previous episode. Even the security guards nearby were startled!
“Prince of Lanling!”
“Prince of Lanling, keep going!”
“Prince of Lanling, I will always support you, I only support you today!”
“Prince of Lanling, you’re great!”
“I love you, Prince of Lanling!”
“Don’t listen to the internet, just sing your song well, ‘Boy’ is great. I’ve downloaded it to show my support!”
“Prince of Lanling, I argued with someone over you all night!”
“I came from Sun City to support you!”
“…”
Lin Yuan paused slightly.
He looked at the faces in the crowd, and suddenly had a strange feeling that he’d never had before.
If it weren’t for the comments on the internet, Lin Yuan would almost doubt if he’d taken the first place in the previous competition and as a result got so much support right now.
‘It seems like I’ve overlooked something.’
The thought suddenly popped into Lin Yuan’s mind.
Last night.
When he read the comments online, he surely didn’t get angry, he even liked some of the comments…
It was quite calm!
Rational!
Cool-headed!
But at this moment, listening to the cheering voices, he suddenly felt an indescribable emotion forming and rising in his chest.
It’s not clear, not expressible.
A lot of words are stuck in his chest.
Seeing the indifferent, passionate, plain, or smiling faces in the crowd, he finally knew what he had overlooked.
He suddenly remembered…
Last night, when many people were talking down his singing, there were actually a few faint voices arguing.
He suddenly remembered…
Last night, after Leng Quan ended his live stream, someone had left a comment under ‘Boy’:
“Keep singing, and I will keep listening – no matter where you sing.”
He suddenly remembered…
Last night, on the music forum, someone was repeatedly sharing ‘Boy’, trying to tell more people that the song is worth listening to repeatedly.
Although such efforts seemed a little futile and even a bit ridiculous.
And the responses were not very pleasant.
The poster still stubbornly argued his point.
Back then, Lin Yuan just felt relieved, as there were still people who could appreciate his sincerity, and that was enough.
But just that was all.
But now, when he thought back on these seemingly powerless words of support, they seemed to feel completely different.
So, there are things that I completely didn’t care about, but some people care so much…
So, it’s not that I wasn’t upset, but others were upset for me…
So, I am so important to some people…
“Teacher Prince of Lanling.”
Tongtong came up to him, puzzled, “Why aren’t you going in?”
Lin Yuan didn’t say a word, but turned around and bowed to the crowd.
What is singing?
Is it because I want to sing, so I sing?
But when this love can be felt by some people, am I still fighting alone?
At this moment, it seemed as though the sun was suddenly shining brilliantly.
His silhouette disappeared from the sight of the crowd.
…
Lin Yuan walked ahead in silence.
Tongtong looked at Prince of Lanling, her eyes filled with worry.
She felt that he seemed colder today than the previous two rounds, and she had a vague feeling that he was like a flame gradually burning.
This felt like a contradiction.
She bit her lip.
She didn’t know how to comfort him.
It seemed that Prince of Lanling was indeed affected by some of the voices on the internet.
Rehearsal…
Waiting…
In the end, the Prince of Lanling didn’t say a word from beginning to end, it was eerily silent.
Then came the drawing of lots.
Prince of Lanling remained silent, just shaking his head.
Tongtong understood his meaning, reached into the box and pulled out a ball.
“Prince of Lanling…”
Tongtong bitterly smiled as she revealed the order of performance in her hand.
The No.1 ball!
Today, Prince of Lanling was starting the show!
Prince of Lanling nodded, leaning against the sofa, his emotions accumulating and gradually surging.
And in Tongtong’s eyes, worry was intensifying.
Starting!
He had drawn the first performance slot!
Despite carrying immense pressure, he had to be the first one on stage, facing the audience’s varied emotions. Seeing him, the audience would most likely think of those online comments; they might even gossip while listening to his song…
This order was terrible.
Actually, whether Prince of Lanling won or lost had nothing to do with Tongtong.
If Prince of Lanling were eliminated, new singers would appear.
Tongtong would still stay on stage as an assistant manager, accompanying new singers.
But honestly—
Tongtong liked being with Prince of Lanling.
Although Prince of Lanling was somewhat casual in his speech, in her heart, Tongtong felt that what he said was reasonable.
Online, people said Prince of Lanling’s sharp tongue was for gaining attention.
However, Tongtong didn’t feel a trace of malice from Prince of Lanling.
When Prince of Lanling spoke about Yuan Xi, the expression hidden beneath his disguise was likely one of regret.
When he gave his opinion on Zhao Ying Ge, the expression hidden beneath his disguise was likely one of helplessness.
Would Prince of Lanling be eliminated today?
Tongtong wasn’t sure, but she had faintly heard some noise.
The performance of the replacement singer during rehearsal was excellent…
On TV.
The stage curtain had been lifted.
The host was controlling the scene.
At the same time.
The loudspeaker sounded a notification: “The first singer Prince of Lanling, please get ready.”
It’s time to start…
The emotion on Lin Yuan’s face was hidden under the mask. He stood up strongly and walked towards the stage with Tongtong.
“Prince of Lanling…”
Tongtong looked at Lin Yuan, her worried gaze deepening.
“Don’t worry.”
Lin Yuan spoke, his voice hinting a trace of laughter.
Tongtong was startled. This was the first thing Prince of Lanling has said to her today, and it was the first time she heard such a straightforward expression of his emotions. Is he comforting me? Shouldn’t I be the one comforting him?
At this moment.
Lin Yuan had walked to the center of the stage, and no one could see that the smile under his mask had completely disappeared!
Under the stage.
The audience’s gaze, along with countless lights, were all focused on him, accompanied by various voices.
“The first one is Prince of Lanling?”
“It’s going to be a duet, right?”
“Sounds pretty good.”
“It just feels a bit dull after listening to it too many times.”
“It’s always the same.”
“This guy really knows how to get attention.”
“Don’t say that, I really like him.”
“Me too, I think his words make sense, it’s just that some people don’t want to hear because of his different status.”
“I’ll still support him even if he gets eliminated.”
“You guys only like him because he did well in his first episode.”
“…”
At the judges’ front row, the camera captures Leng Quan’s face. As expected, he was one of the judges for the third episode.
Leng Quan even smiled at the camera.
However, the expressions of the four judges were somewhat serious, and their eyes seemed to hold some hidden worries.
In the seats for the 500 audience members, there were all sorts of human reactions.
Suddenly.
The heavy sound of drums began to play and the stage lights turned into a phantom blue. The dazzling display on stage seemed to hide a deadly intent!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
In front of the big drum, the drummer was furiously swinging his mallets, the rhythm being heavy and powerful.
Then there was a brief pause in the sound of the drums.
The sound of the pipa came through!
In the center of the stage.
Lin Yuan’s hand, which was holding the raised microphone, suddenly tightened. In the close-up given by the camera, even his knuckles were turning pale!
At the same time.
His voice roared like a cannonball, resulting in a loud explosion!
“The boundless sea laughs!”
“Coast to coast, tides surge!”
“Drifting with the waves, mark this moment!”
As if some force was gripping the back of their necks, everyone’s scalp went numb and goosebumps appeared!
Like a quick camera pan.
The scenes from the doorway and the previous night flashed through Lin Yuan’s mind.
His hoarse and heroic voice was amplified to mimic a firework’s energetic burst. His emotions, which had been simmering unknowingly, finally exploded—
“Heaven laughs!”
“Worldly tides surge!”
“Who wins or loses, Only the heavens know!”
The beat of the drums stirred everyone’s hearts, the strum of the pipa struck everyone’s nerves, and the singing resounded in everyone’s eardrums.
Let the dragons roar and the tigers howl-
In the silent place, heard the startling thunder!!!
