Ye Xiao's head throbbed, and a mechanical electronic voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"System binding failed, retrying..."
"System binding failed, retrying..."
"System binding failed, retrying..."
"Warning: If binding fails, the host will be destroyed. System binding failed, retrying... Remaining attempts: 3."
Hearing this, Ye Xiao shivered all over. Destroy the host? Was he going to die right after he arrived? How could that be?
That's right, Ye Xiao had transmigrated.
After enduring countless hardships, he had finally seized a rare opportunity to star in a low-budget TV series, planning to spread his wings.
During an ordinary audition, in an ordinary scene, a common decorative chandelier fell directly in front of him.
Without hesitation, he lunged to push away the actress who was about to be hit, and he himself was struck squarely by the chandelier.
When he opened his eyes again, he had transmigrated into the body of a young man from Xia Country, also named Ye Xiao.
But as soon as he opened his eyes, he was facing a life-or-death moment!
He listened nervously to the voice in his mind until only one chance remained, and he heard: "System binding successful." Only then did he finally relax.
This transmigration was truly exciting; it almost ended before it even began.
The next second, the system's voice boomed in Ye Xiao's mind: "Congratulations, Host, for successfully binding the Ultimate Music Library System. To avoid copyright disputes, all songs in this world have been deleted from the music library."
Ye Xiao was stunned. What Music Library System? He was an actor! Why a music library? What use was that? System, did you know he was tone-deaf?
However, upon hearing "copyright disputes," Ye Xiao's expression became meaningful. He hadn't expected this system to be so particular and copyright-conscious.
Without giving Ye Xiao time to think, a huge display screen appeared in front of him the next second, with text that read: "This system is not free to use. Please earn Music Circle points as soon as possible, or the consequences will be severe!"
Ye Xiao was startled again. He quickly asked, "What are the consequences?"
The display screen clearly showed four large characters: "Destroy the host."
"..." Ye Xiao fell silent. This system was too terrifying; it wanted to destroy him at the drop of a hat. It seemed he was in constant danger of losing his life since transmigrating.
At this moment, he really wanted to ask the system if he could transmigrate back. He didn't want to stay here.
The system continued to introduce itself: "The Host will have a certain chance to gain Music Circle points when engaging in any music-related activities on this planet. The amount of Music Circle points will be determined by the Host's influence in the Music Circle. After obtaining a certain amount of Music Circle points, corresponding rewards will also be received."
"Please draw a novice gift package."
The next moment, Ye Xiao seemed to enter a mysterious space, with several shimmering golden orbs floating in front of him. He casually poked one of the orbs with his hand.
Instantly, the orb emitted an even more dazzling golden light. The next second, he returned to reality, a piece of paper in his hand—just one piece of paper, covered in dense text and a bunch of scribbles.
Ye Xiao quietly stared at the "novice gift package" in his hand, then threw it on the ground and cursed: "System, are you kidding me?! What kind of novice gift package is this?! At least give me something I can understand!
"These are clearly foreign words! I'm a native-born Hua Country person, I hate foreign culture the most. Are you deliberately trying to kill me?!"
Suddenly, he was pulled back into that space. This time, the orbs one after another emitted dazzling light, transforming into sheets of paper under Ye Xiao's gaze. He saw the contents written on the papers and was instantly dumbfounded.
He saw the titles on several papers clearly written: "Love Even If We Die," "When," "Above the Moon," "Lonely Sandbar Cold," "flammable and explosive"...
At this point, he finally realized that these papers were indeed songs, and the scribbles were musical scores. It just so happened that he had drawn a foreign song he couldn't understand.
Ye Xiao thought, did the system pull him back into space just to prove that the system was fine?
The next second, he returned to reality, and the huge display screen reappeared, clearly stating: Earn 100 points, 3 days limit!
Ye Xiao struggled to sit up, feeling a bit confused. What now? The novice reward was a foreign song he couldn't understand.
Three days? What could he do in three days?
He diligently searched the original host's memories and learned that this planet he was on was not Earth but was called Bluestar, seemingly a parallel world somewhat similar to Earth.
Bluestar did not have as many countries; instead, there were only six major powers that divided the world equally.
There was no war here, or rather, from a certain point onwards, there had been no more wars, because the military power of each country had developed to the point where it could destroy the entire planet.
And from that moment on, everyone laid down their weapons, because weapons themselves had lost their meaning.
In this world without war, it instead led to various countries vigorously promoting their own cultures, attempting to gradually influence other countries through cultural output, and ultimately gaining greater discourse power in the world.
It was precisely because of this that the arts held increasing weight in this world, which also promoted the rapid development of the Entertainment Circle in various countries.
Of course, in this war without smoke, Xia Country firmly held an absolute leading position due to its long history and extremely exaggerated cultural heritage.
What a great place, how suitable for him, but System Big Brother! He was an actor before!
Although they were both in the Entertainment Circle, the Music Circle was completely unrelated! You gave him a song he couldn't understand, but you didn't tell him how to earn points with it!
Forget it, since he was here, he would make the best of it. He would take it one step at a time! Years of scrambling and working hard in the Entertainment Circle had forged Ye Xiao's optimism, which far surpassed that of ordinary people.
He got up and walked to the mirror, carefully examining himself.
He had to admit, the original host's appearance was also good. A tall guy at 180cm, with exceptionally delicate features. His eyebrows were slender and soft, his eyes bright and clear, and his gaze revealed a gentle and refined temperament. What a handsome young man.
The only flaw was that he was too thin, and his complexion was too pale, making him appear somewhat sickly.
This sickliness was genuinely sickly. In his memories, the original host had suffered a serious illness during his college entrance examination year and had been undergoing expensive medical treatment until recently when he recovered and was discharged.
But the original host still died; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to transmigrate.
As for the cause of death, it seemed to be related to a beautiful woman in the original host's memories.
However, the original host indeed looked good. If he had looked like this originally, he wouldn't have taken so long to become a leading actor.
Just as Ye Xiao was admiring himself in the mirror, a female voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Auntie and Uncle, hello, I'd like to talk to Ye Xiao!"
Huh! Why was this voice so familiar? Why did his body start trembling uncontrollably as soon as he heard this voice?
Before Ye Xiao could go out, there was another clatter at the door, followed by a roguish voice: "I say, when are you two going to pay back the money you owe us?"
