Side Story: First Time Participating in the Diva Competition (22)

Originally, I just wanted to take advantage of the popularity of this Sen Star Person. After all, the advanced civilization of Shui Lingjiao brought a lot of popularity to their competition, and this popularity came from an advanced civilization, which was much more powerful than that of other lower-level civilizations.

Therefore, they also wanted to take advantage of Su Xi's racial popularity to attract more advanced civilizations to their competition.

But now it seems like things have gone too far.

It allowed a Diva without vocal power to win first place...

To be honest, the organizers initially thought Su Xi's third-place finish was due to their efforts, but now the situation seems to be getting a bit out of control.

When the supervisor saw that Su Xi had won first place, his heart sank.

He quickly instructed his subordinates to tweak the script for the next part.

Su Xi needs to be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise, if the previous Starry Sky Diva investigate, they will face considerable trouble.

Su Xi's side.

Not long after leaving the small village, a magnificent carriage from the capital appeared before Su Xi.

This is the treatment all the Diva made it to the semi-finals received, but Su Xi didn't expect that the carriage could find them in such a remote place.

Wow, those two carriages are so cool!

Miboli circled the carriage several times, exclaiming in amazement.

"Hello, Ms. Su Xi, please get in the car."

The coachman extended a respectful invitation.

The two arrived at the capital of the Diamond Empire quickly by carriage.

As the center of the entire virtual continent, this imperial capital is incredibly prosperous, teeming with people, including all sorts of aliens.

However, after being transported to so many planets, Su Xi had gotten used to the appearance of these aliens and did not show much surprise.

After finding a place to stay...

The script indicates that the semi-final stage will open in three days.

There are four semi-final stages, located in the four directions of the capital, and the script does not restrict which stage the Diva can perform on.

Miboli's eyes widened instantly upon seeing the explanation. "No restrictions?"

"This kind of rule has never appeared before. Shouldn't the Diva be randomly assigned to the four stages? What does it mean to set no restrictions now?"

Su Xi thought for a moment and said calmly, "There shouldn't be any restrictions on which stage the Diva can perform on, or rather, Diva has entered the semi-finals can perform on any of these four stages."

"Huh? On four stages?"

Miboli was a little confused at first, then quickly came to her senses. "You mean, high-class Diva like Xi Youlan and Shui Lingjiao might appear on all four stages?"

"But why are they doing this?"

The number of Diva eliminated is fixed, and the reason is self-evident.

It was probably to prevent her from advancing to the finals.

She's still live streaming right now, and after two rounds of elimination, she has even more viewers in her live stream, so she can't just casually voice these speculations.

Because she had no evidence, and even if she did have evidence, there would be no benefit in confronting the organizers.

From now on, we can only deal with things as they come.

"The annual Heaven-Sent Diva Contest is about to begin again."

"Oh wow, I wonder what kind of songs we'll hear this year."

As the Heaven-Sent Diva entered the capital one after another, the local NPCs began discussing matters related to Diva.

The Diva who have made it this far are all rumored to be famous.

For example, Xi Youlan, her rumors are spreading like wildfire in brothels, and all those people who like to seduce others want to meet this Diva.

As for Su Xi, her rumors are quite simple.

Sen Star Person Diva sings her heart out.

Rumors are circulating that a Diva has appeared who can express your thoughts, and that singer is Su Xi.

The annual festival of the virtual continent has begun, and the streets of the capital are filled with joy.

Su Xi and Miboli visited the four stages in advance to scout out the locations and learn about the stories behind each place.

Hard work pays off.

Each of the four stages located in the capital city has its own focus.

The Eastern stage is decorated in a classical style, and the songs will undoubtedly be in the ancient style as well. The Western stage is decorated in a war-themed style, so singing war-related songs on this stage will definitely be no problem.

The northern style is fairy tale-like, and there are many children there, so the songs should definitely be romantic and carefree, like "The Little Fly". The southern stage decorations are more trendy, so it should be a stage suitable for pop songs.

Although the script states that the Diva is free to sing whatever songs she wants and on which stage she chooses to sing, the style of the stage does reveal that this freedom is still somewhat limited.

In fact, this is only the first step in the knockout stage.

Standing on the wrong stage or singing the wrong song could make you the first to be eliminated.

"Miss Su, which of the four stages do you plan to choose?"

Miboli came over to inquire.

Su Xi shook her head. "I haven't decided yet, let's see how it goes."

The semi-finals lasted quite a long time, and the Diva could go on stage once a day. If they were not satisfied with their first performance, they could go on stage again the next day until they were satisfied.

However, there is no doubt that the later you sing, the more you lose.

Because NPCs can also get tired.

Now, Su Xi wants to see where these talented Diva will choose to perform, and then avoid them.

With a huge music library at her disposal, she has no shortage of songs. Not to mention these four styles, Su Xi has many more.

Day 1.

Su Xi and Miboli arrived on the stage in the East.

On the first day, many high-ranking Diva said they would make the first move. On the Eastern stage, Yu Feixiang appeared. She was a being whose race and appearance were similar to Xi Youlan. However, her wings were much smaller than Xi Youlan's, and her wings were not evolved from her shoulder bones, but from her tailbone. Therefore, her wings were only slightly above her buttocks.

Before she started singing, Yu Feixiang played music for a while, and only began her performance when the audience was already captivated.

The song ended.

The NPCs and audience present all gave Yu Feixiang high praise.

As for the exact figures, we'll have to wait until after the semifinals to find out.

"A grand chorus..."

The power of a solo chorus is truly impressive; Yu Feixiang is indeed a talented Diva.

It seems that if Hong Yu hadn't been caught off guard by the ghost NPC, she would definitely have advanced even if she sang off-key.

"Sister Yu's singing is amazing!" Miboli said, her face filled with emotion and tears streaming down her face.

Su Xi complained, "Can you stand up before you speak?"

"Huh?" Miboli then realized that she was kneeling on the ground.

She covered her face shyly and said, "Sister Yu's power is majesty. When I see her singing, I am reminded of my father... so I couldn't help but kneel down."

Majesty...

I really did feel like I was looking up at the person on stage just now; I realized that's the power of her voice.

The power of a voice that can command respect.

It seems pretty impressive.

Su Xi glanced thoughtfully at the Diva on the stage.

As a result, the other party also turned their gaze towards Su Xi, giving her a smiling look.

Those eyes were filled with hostility.

Su Xi sensed Yu Feixiang's hostility. She was surprised, but did not show it on the surface.

But we also have some general guesses.

Miboli excitedly asked Su Xi, "Miss Su, do you want to sing in the chorus like Sister Yu?"

Su Xi: "Hmm... let's take a look first."

Yu Feixiang's voice is so captivating that it's likely the next Diva to appear won't have a very pleasant experience.

The Diva, a powerful weapon, entered the stage too early, causing too much disruption.

However, Su Xi also knew that this was not a fair competition, so she was not too upset.

It was just a moment of silence for the Diva was about to appear.

Since everyone had to queue up in advance according to the script before they could appear on stage, none of them expected that Yu Feixiang.

After listening to songs at the Oriental Stage all day, Su Xi and Miboli returned to their hotel.

The next three days.

Su Xi and Miboli went to three different stages with different styles.

The northern stage is occupied by a Diva from the Lily of the Suzuran tribe. This Diva's voice possesses the power of illusion, allowing her to draw others into her fantasies, perfectly matching the elegance of fairy tales.

On the Western stage, as a race of advanced civilization, especially one with a god of war, Shui Lingjiao possesses an exceptionally high level of understanding of war, thus she undoubtedly occupies that stage.

The final stage in the South, the stage for pop songs, was taken over by Xi Youlan.

For four days, you could see these high-class Diva taking the stage first every day, and then crushing the Diva who appeared later.

The methods they used were far more vicious than Su Xi had imagined.

That is, each of these Diva occupies a stage, and each day is their first appearance.

What should have been a stage for free singing was turned into something resembling a singing competition by these Diva.

Miboli's expression wasn't good either. After Su Xi pointed it out, she understood what these Diva were doing, but with so many people watching, she could only keep quiet.

Because her strength and status are insufficient to make these things clear.

"Miss Su, they're always the first to go on stage every day, what are you planning to do?"

Su Xi narrowed her eyes and smiled, "No rush."

These Diva, or the people behind Diva, simply want to get rid of her.

Although the number of eliminated Diva is fixed, there will still be twenty Diva make it to the finals.

Besides the four Diva who dominated the stage and were able to advance, there are 16 other places available.

Don't assume that just because there are many places left to go and Su Xi is currently popular, she can rank in the top 20.

This is incorrect.

Now, these four Diva use their vocal power to bombard the ears of NPCs and the audience every day when they take the stage. In addition, with the vocal power of other Diva, Su Xi, as a pure vocal Diva, is definitely at a great disadvantage!

Su Xi could even say outright that she was certain to lose this round of the competition.

But there is another uncertain opportunity.

They went too far.

This uncertain opportunity will become increasingly clear because of their excessive actions.

That's the audience.

After the initial excitement of learning that their idol sings every day, they gradually calm down and start to think about why they are doing such a thankless task.

As a well-known Diva with her own fans, she's practically guaranteed a spot in the finals. But why is she still performing every day?

"Miboli, you'll have to help me now. After this is done, I'll wear most of the clothes you design."

Su Xi smiled and said to Miboli.

Miboli, sharing the same hatred, nodded.

Now that Miboli is no longer a contestant, the organizers will not restrict her behavior.

Su Xi needs Miboli to guide the audience's discussion from the sidelines.

Let them understand that their idols are being suppressed.

Since the other party has resorted to such despicable tactics, Su Xi will not fight back openly.

You are despicable, and so am I.

Soon, many viewers had some questions about the current situation in the Diva Competition.

First, Diva like Xi Youlan and Shui Lingjiao have been performing on stage for three consecutive days. While this is a good thing, something feels off.

Secondly, Su Xi never sings, which puzzles the audience who watch her.

There isn't much time left until the end of the semifinals.

Seeing this, Miboli naturally seized the opportunity and quickly arranged for an online army to infiltrate the situation and subtly guide public opinion.

After all, if they aren't guided to think in this direction, they might not realize that this is targeting Su Xi until the very end.

Ever since Su Xi won first place last time, Yu Qingyu has never left Su Xi's live stream room, wanting to see what surprises this Sen Star Person can bring her next.

However, rumors circulated among his peers that some of the Starry Sky Diva were going to eliminate Su Xi.

He asked his colleague, looking completely bewildered, what had happened.

"Hehe, isn't it obvious? Su Xi was targeted in this semi-final."

"Ah?"

"Old Fish, you've been observing this Sen Star Person all this time, and she hasn't sung for so long. Do you think it's because she doesn't want to sing? It's because she simply can't! The entire four stages are enveloped by the vocal power of Xi Youlan, Yu Feixiang, Shui Lingjiao, and Fang Cao Yu every day. Other Diva with power can barely resist, but Su Xi has no power. How can Diva who is just a pure voice resist?!"

"Hiss!" After a little prompting, Yu Qingyu also came to her senses.

These Diva appeared on stage for several days in a row. At first, he thought they wanted to use the stage to attract more fans and further their careers. Now it seems that their motives are not so simple.

However, he had anticipated that the Starry Sky Diva wouldn't let the pure voice Diva take the stage, but he didn't expect her to use such a vicious tactic.

They occupy the stage every day, making it impossible for you to perform or sing under absolutely unfair conditions.

After Yu Qingyu figured it out, anger quickly welled up in her heart, and she started to stir up trouble.

Soon, Miboli gave Su Xi an OK sign.

The rumors that the Diva were bullying Su Xi have swept across half the arena, and Xi Youlan has stopped dominating the stage and no longer performs.

The other three Diva who dominated the stage also gradually stopped appearing.

Although the plan successfully persuaded the Diva to back down, it also attracted a lot of haters to Su Xi.

After all, in the eyes of those fans, this statement was completely unfounded, and moreover, why should their idol give way to Su Xi? It was unreasonable.

A war of public opinion is about to break out.

Then they were beaten and forced to retreat.

Yes, it's Su Xi's fans who are losing ground, because Su Xi is a newcomer and her fanbase wasn't very strong to begin with.

At this point, Su Xi realized that she had to step forward.

Otherwise, she would waste this brief period of free time she had gained.

Su Xi led Miboli straight to the stage in the north.

This time, without any backing or cheating that allowed the four Diva to dominate the stage, Su Xi easily secured the first spot to perform.

"Are we singing nursery rhymes again this time?" Miboli asked, her eyes wide.

Su Xi smiled but did not answer.
