Side Story: First Time Participating in the Diva Competition (18)
Soon, all the Diva ahead of Su Xi had sung their songs.
Yu Qingyu silently ranked the Diva in her mind. Xing Yue Shi, who performed first, only ranked fifth at most.
It was Su Xi's turn to take the stage.
Xi Youlan's fans and viewers also noticed her.
After all, this Diva was the first person to show kindness to Miss Youlan, and all her fans were curious about the relationship between Su Xi and Xi Youlan.
Besides Xi Youlan's fans, the audience in the other Diva' rooms were also very curious about Su Xi.
After all, among the current popularity charts, only this newcomer Sen Star Person Diva, is a newcomer.
As Su Xi's singing began, all the noise temporarily subsided, as if they had been infected by the song of the Little Fly, and a tranquil and natural atmosphere surrounded everyone.
Some scoffed, saying that singing a children's song in such a competition was inappropriate. Others thought the song was beautiful and praised Su Xi's talent, while still others felt the melody was too simple and that singing it in such a competition offered virtually no hope of advancing...
Of course, the result was unexpected by everyone.
Su Xi advanced, ranking third, which was just the threshold for advancement.
Everyone felt strange. Su Xi's song was simple and lacked vocal power. Although it stirred the emotions of the NPCs, for these discerning viewers, the song was pleasant to listen to, but not outstanding.
Compared to other songs by Diva, "The Little Fly" can only be considered barely acceptable.
For a moment, everyone wondered if there was something fishy going on.
Yu Qingyu pondered for a moment and said, "It's unlikely to be a conspiracy. How could the Diamond Civilization do something like this for a Sen Star Person Diva?"
"I suspect that Su Xi was able to advance because of Xi Youlan."
"Her singing voice was so powerful that all the Diva who sang after her paled in comparison. Only Su Xi managed to stir the emotions of the NPCs with a simple song, leaving an impression on them and allowing her to advance."
The audience members in the other rooms were also analyzing the process.
It's quite obvious that even the audience members were affected by Xi Youlan's singing and didn't remember the Diva came on stage after her. The NPCs in the story would likely feel the same way.
Only Su Xi entered the arena at the very end, when Xi Youlan's influence was at its lowest, successfully attracting the attention of most of the NPCs.
"This Sen Star Person's songs are quite good. At least the melodies are easy to remember and catchy. These simple songs also make it easy for the audience to sing along, further weakening Miss Youlan's influence on them."
"Hiss, so in that case, her choice to sing nursery rhymes was actually the best one?"
These NPCs won't sing along to songs with deeper meaning, so after Xi Youlan, singing children's songs is the best choice.
Everyone admired Su Xi's wise choice.
"Advanced civilizations are indeed formidable."
"Hehe, what about those people who were just laughing at Su Xi for singing nursery rhymes? If she hadn't sung nursery rhymes, she might not have even advanced."
"This Sen Star Person understands that she has no vocal power, so she has the audience sing along with her, achieving a similar power of resonance to the Xing Yue Shi in another way, which is indeed not to be underestimated."
"This is ultimately just a clever trick, not something that can be taken seriously."
Everyone received an explanation.
Yu Qingyu, one of the interpreters, still felt something was off.
He felt that the order of appearance was a bit strange, because no matter how you looked at it, the order was very advantageous to the last Diva to appear.
Oh well, maybe this is just her luck.
Yu Qingyu shook her head, thinking to herself.
The song "The Little Fly" doesn't contain any vocal power. Although Su Xi used melody to assist in creating atmosphere and enhancing the song's expressiveness, it's still different from those other Diva. Therefore, there's still a slight disdain for Su Xi's advancement.
However, after other Diva covered Su Xi's songs, not only did "The Little Fly," but other songs she had sung also became popular in certain regions.
In particular, simple children's songs like "The Little Fly" quickly became popular hits through word of mouth.
If it weren't for the subsequent illegal activities that forced Diamond Civilization to intervene and reduce the popularity of these songs, Su Xi's name would probably have spread rapidly throughout Silver Vortex Society.
After finishing her singing, Su Xi returned to the real world.
Upon her return, Alif congratulated her, saying, "Congratulations on advancing!"
"Hehe, it's just luck. How much prize money can I get at least after advancing this time?" Su Xi asked impatiently.
"We've passed two rounds of the competition so far, and we've earned about five million Silver Whirl Coin."
"Five million? That's not much." Su Xi was a little speechless.
Alif shook her head. "They've only gone through two rounds, so the prize money definitely won't be much. At least 90% of the Diva were eliminated in the first round, and these Diva would have received a reward of 100,000 just for participating. How much prize money do you think the Diamond Civilization would have to give out with so many Diva?"
"Therefore, the prize money won't be much in the earlier rounds; it will only increase several times over if you advance to the later rounds."
In fact, five million Silver Whirl Coin is a huge sum of money for ordinary people, and even for a Second-tier Civilization that has just joined the Silver Vortex Society, it is a considerable amount of start-up capital. It's just that Su Xi, as a bounty hunter, has taken on a quick money-making mission like the Corpse Star, so she doesn't care about this amount of money.
I've been staying indoors for several days in a row.
Since the next phase of the script had just begun, Alif took Su Xi out for a stroll.
Su Xi had become quite accustomed to the environment of outer space, but today, while traveling with Alif, she felt a lot of attention that she didn't usually receive.
In the starry sky, because there are many races and different aesthetics, even by human standards, Su Xi is very beautiful, but in some races she is very ugly.
In addition, the Sen Star Race had disappeared for over a thousand years. When she and Alif went out, only a few people who recognized the Sen Star Person would pay attention to them, but never as many as today.
"Why do I feel like there are more people watching us now?" Su Xi frowned.
Alif chuckled, "You're a popular Diva in the Starry Sky Diva Competition now, isn't it normal for them to recognize you?"
Furthermore, their Silver Whirl identity information allows the other party to easily identify them as bounty hunters.
In order to accept missions, the identities of bounty hunters are all public, so as long as these alien beings recognize Su Xi's identity, they will naturally know that she is the Sen Star Person Diva whose popularity has recently skyrocketed.
When a popular Diva appears in such a place, people will naturally cast curious glances at her.
"Tsk, it's a bit annoying to be stared at while just going shopping."
