Side Story: First Time Participating in the Diva Competition (14)

Viewers watching Su Xi were a bit confused.

The current situation is like a minor internet celebrity being mentioned and praised by a top-tier celebrity.

This has led many to suspect that there might have been some kind of underhanded deal involved.

Even Yu Qingyu thought so.

In the end, Su Xi sighed, took the clothing data from Miboli, and fulfilled Miboli's request.

Changing clothes is too easy in the virtual world. As long as you have the data, you can do it with a thought. In reality, she would never wear any clothes other than the Saintess Set.

Because of laziness.

The Saintess Set allows you to freely transform as long as you wear it. It also has high defense and comes with its own cleansing effect. Wearing other clothes is not only troublesome, but also makes you dirty.

On a side note, Su Xi still can't quite get the straps on Kurumi Incarnation's spirit dress right.

Not to mention other clothes.

After spending nearly an hour and a half changing her clothes, Miboli looked at the photos she had taken and left satisfied.

Before leaving, Miboli congratulated her, saying, "Congratulations, Miss Su Xi! Your popularity seems to have suddenly skyrocketed. You're about to enter the top ten!"

Huh?

Su Xi was a little surprised.

What's going on?

Although she had a surge in popularity before, it stabilized afterward. How come she suddenly has such a large surge in popularity again? It has even pushed her popularity to almost the top ten.

This is something that would never happen to a new Diva.

Su Xi also found this strange, so she quickly logged off and returned to the real world.

Su Xi hadn't paid much attention to the popularity charts before, because those who could stay on them were all Diva had been famous in the real world for a long time. Where would she, Diva with no fame, no talent, and no connections, get popularity?

But the situation is different now.

On the overall popularity chart, Su Xi ranked eleventh, and her popularity is still rising rapidly, getting closer and closer to the tenth place.

Su Xi rubbed her eyes, a little confused. "What's going on?"

"I've only sung one song so far, where did all this popularity come from?"

Hearing Su Xi's surprised exclamation, Alif, who was standing nearby, also checked the popularity rankings and frowned.

"Either someone is buying your ranking, or the Diamond Civilization is planning to use you to break into new circles."

"Break out of your comfort zone?" Su Xi asked curiously.

Buying a ranking is impossible. Su Xi knows that she is not Sen Star Person from the Sen Star Civilization at all. In this star system, she doesn't even know many people. How could anyone possibly buy her a ranking?

Therefore, Su Xi is more concerned about what Alif said about breaking out of the circle.

Alif nodded and said, "I guess the organizers of the Diva Competition tried using your identity to generate some buzz, and they felt it worked well, so they gave you a huge boost in traffic this time."

"Yeah..."

Su Xi didn't know the reason behind it either, and could only look at herself appearing on the popularity chart with a bit of confusion.

After observing the Diva on the charts for a while, Su Xi looked utterly despairing.

Everyone here is a pro player, and she's the only newbie. What's the point of her playing?

This situation is no less dire than her, a level four creator, infiltrating a group of High Kami.

"Since the official organization recommends you, you can take advantage of this opportunity to sing a few more songs and retain some of these passersby. You can also earn a considerable amount of money, since you can't win first place anyway."

Alif said.

"You're right."

Anyway, she never expected to go very far; Su Xi was just taken aback by her sudden surge in popularity.

Re-enter the virtual world.

At this point, the script was updated.

Su Xi looked over and saw that the town mayor's wife had passed away and the mayor would be holding a funeral for her.

As Heaven-Sent Diva, please compose a song for this and sing it at the church the following day.

The mayor will welcome you.

"His wife passed away?"

Su Xi seemed to be deep in thought, not expecting that this singing session would have a theme.

Last time I left the village, there were no theme restrictions; as long as I got the approval of the clan NPCs, that was enough. I didn't expect that there would be theme restrictions after advancing.

The theme of the song is now clearly limited to the mayor and his wife.

This day was reserved for the Diva to create their works.

Currently, we only know of Diva, Xi Youlan and Miboli. We don't know where the other seven Diva are or what kind of people they are.

Su Xi shook her head and then began to think of a song that fit the theme.

Miboli knocked on the door, entered, and said, "Miss Su Xi, the script has been updated!"

"Yes, I saw it."

"Wow, Miss Su Xi looks so confident. Do you already have a plan?" Miboli asked, her eyes sparkling.

Su Xi shook her head.

There's no such thing as being confident; they've just given up.

But I still have to sing.

Miboli waved her hand and said, "Alright, then I won't bother you any longer. I'm really looking forward to Miss Su Xi and Miss You Lan's new song!"

"Yes, I'm also looking forward to your new song," Su Xi replied.

Miboli simply shook her head, sighed, and walked out.

Does this guy have so little confidence in himself?

Su Xi remained silent.

She at least had the power of her voice, yet she wasn't this dejected.

However, she herself had the idea of giving up, and she was too embarrassed to say it to Miboli.

Of course, this is also related to Su Xi's clear self-awareness. When facing Diva with powerful voice, she is already at a disadvantage, and when facing Diva like Xi Youlan, she is at an even greater disadvantage.

There is virtually no hope of winning a place.

However, Su Xi was not without experience. She had recently learned about the Starry Sky Diva and knew that the best way to gain more recognition was to evoke emotions.

Even those Diva who possess the power of their voices mostly use their power to evoke the emotions of the audience, thereby gaining their identification.

In other words, highbrow art is useless in the starry sky, and no one will appreciate or interpret it.

Because in the starry sky, all the techniques related to singing have reached their peak.

More than the song, lyrics, or melody, what audiences are really looking forward to is whether the song can evoke their emotions or desires.

After figuring out the direction for her song selection, Su Xi spent a day wandering around the town, learning about the story between the town mayor and his wife.

Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that the story between the town mayor and his wife was quite ordinary.

After all, this is one of the central towns of the Diamond Empire, so there is a certain level of security. In addition, the mayor's family grew up in this town, and the mayor and his wife are childhood sweethearts.

Everything was natural and orderly, everything was ordinary and mundane.

"Such an ordinary story, apart from the mayor's personal struggle, doesn't seem to have anything worth turning into a song," Su Xi with a hint of helplessness.

Singing about the town mayor's personal struggle wouldn't fit the theme.
