Side Story: Entering the Diva Competition for the First Time (4)

This secluded Sen Star Person town, though similar to the real Sen Star Person, is a virtual world where they aren't enslaved, so the atmosphere of the entire village seems much more relaxed and pleasant.

The town's style is quite similar to that of backward towns in Western Europe, with low houses, colorful window frames, and fragrant flowers blooming in every window, making everything seem so harmonious and natural.

Su Xi strolled along the streets of the small town, enjoying its unique tranquility.

Her appearance was outstanding even among the Sen Star Person, attracting the attention and greetings of many NPCs.

She's quite popular in terms of her character design.

Arriving at the relatively bustling downtown area of the town, the atmosphere became much more lively. The streets and harbors were filled with all kinds of goods, from spices to flowers, from handicrafts to fresh fruits and vegetables, a dazzling array.

Just as Su Xi was observing and gaining inspiration, a Sen Star Person of similar build, laughing and joking, suddenly bumped into her.

The two staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.

The basket the girl was carrying fell from her hand, spilling out the spices inside.

Su Xi looked up and saw that it was her friend from the story, Hicks.

Although they are friends, Hicks is much older than Su Xi. Of course, in a long-lived race, age is just a number.

Su Xi calmly helped her pick up the fallen spices.

"Oh, it's Su Xi! I thought it was someone else. Ouch, you bumped my nose and it hurts so much!" Hicks said with tears in his eyes.

"Who told you not to watch where you're going?" Su Xi chuckled in response.

Hicks pouted and rubbed her nose a little shyly.

At this moment, Hicks's partner, Luther, ran over and inquired about Hicks's condition with concern.

In the story, Luther is a male Sen Star Person, but he looks no different from a girl. Both of them are Su Xi's friends.

Since they are friends, Su Xi naturally has to follow the script and treat both of them as friends.

Hicks asked, "By the way, Su Xi, you're an adult now, right? What do you want to do next?"

I plan to...

Before Su Xi could finish speaking, Hicks asked excitedly, "Want to become a tailor with me? Tailors can make all sorts of beautiful clothes!"

Su Xi shook her head and said, "I plan to become a bard."

"A bard?"

Hicks's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this. "It seems like no one has chosen this profession for a long time!"

Luther looked over curiously. "A bard, it seems you're going to travel all over the place, which might be more dangerous than for a merchant like me?"

Luther was a merchant who helped the town buy and sell goods outside, often requiring him to travel long distances.

"I guess so?" Su Xi smiled nonchalantly.

It's described as dangerous, but it's all part of the script. Unless the Diamond Civilization goes crazy, they won't let her encounter any strange dangers.

Hicks asked with some concern, "Can you do this?"

"Rest assured."

"Sigh, fine, it's your choice."

Hicks sighed and then picked up the basket, saying, "These are spices Luther brought back for me. See if you like them. I'll make them into a sachet and give it to you."

"I like everything you made," Su Xi said casually.

Hicks' eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "These spices are all very expensive! There's rosemary, thyme..."

She introduced these spices to Su Xi as if they were her most prized possessions.

Su Xi listened patiently until she accompanied the two to their doorstep, at which point Su Xi parted ways with them.

Before parting, Hicks said that because the merchant had brought back supplies, there would be a bonfire party that night, and he told Su Xi to remember to attend.

"Bonfire party..."

Su Xi seemed to be deep in thought. So the bonfire party mentioned in the script was tonight.

It seems the organizers didn't intend for participants to stay in the Novice Village for that long.

After all, the audience comes to watch the singing, not to see the Diva playing house in the Novice Village, so it's normal for her to be fast.

Meanwhile, the organizing committee for the Starry Sky Diva Competition was busy in their office.

Even though intelligent life has freed them from a lot of work, this program is still open to the entire Silver Vortex Galaxy, and they still need to be responsible for a lot of work to ensure that nothing goes wrong during the competition.

"Have any accidents occurred so far? Have any of the players who entered the virtual world encountered any problems?" the team leader asked the group.

"No!" everyone said in unison.

"Very good, start broadcasting the live stream."

Because of past experiences with various problems encountered by Diva when entering the virtual world, the competition footage is now generally only made available to the public after the Diva have adapted to the virtual world for a while.

With so many participants, they needed to monitor each player's condition in real time after the screen was opened.

Especially Shui Lingjiao and Su Xi.

These two Diva from an advanced civilization attracted the attention of the entire office.

"This Su Xi... I think she's very much my type..."

"Tch, you're just being a sucker for power!" one employee retorted.

"What do you mean? The Sen Star Race is now completely isolated. How could I possibly admire them? This is slander against me!"

"Hmm... I also think she's quite cute."

The other office staff echoed this sentiment.

"As long as this Sen Star Person's singing ability is not a problem, then you should prepare to use her identity to attract traffic."

"We should see her abilities soon; her current script assignment is to sing at tonight's bonfire party."

A group of employees gathered around Su Xi to watch and discuss.

At this moment, the audience waiting outside for the Starry Sky Diva Competition broadcast were quickly connected to the screen as soon as it opened, allowing them to participate in watching the Diva's performances up close in an immersive way.

Yu Qingyu, a music connoisseur, quickly connected to the IP address and planned to enter Shui Lingjiao's room as soon as possible.

The next moment, the room showed that it was full.

"Damn, what kind of network are they using? It's so fast!" Yu Qingyu couldn't help but curse.

To manage the audience, the Starry Sky Diva Competition has a limit on the number of people allowed in each contestant's room during the preliminary rounds.

As one of Shui Lingjiao's fans, Yu Qingyu naturally knew that she was participating in this Diva Competition, but she didn't expect to be a step too late.

"There's nothing I can do but look at other people's reposts."

Yu Qingyu thought regretfully.

Reposting isn't as satisfying as watching live, but he had no other choice.

"Now we can only look at other Diva. I heard that Xi Youlan, Hong Yu, and Yu Feixiang are all participating. Since we can't see Shui Lingjiao, it's not bad to see these other singers."

Yu Qingyu thought to herself.

However, unsurprisingly, all the Diva's rooms were fully booked.

"Hiss, does this mean I'll only get to see these Diva after the official start of the competition?!"

Yu Qingyu was speechless. Now he could only go into the square to see if there were any other attractive Diva.

At that moment, he saw one of the images in the square, which read "Diva from the Sen Star Race".

"The Sen Star Race... is that advanced civilization that has been isolated for thousands of years?!"
