Chapter 184: Semifinals, Begin! (Third Update) (Please Vote)
Watching Nana Li push open the glass door and leave, Lin Tian felt somewhat confused.
What was she talking about?
Only those who won had the right to continue pursuing their musical dreams—was that what she meant?
For any musician with their eyes set on a world championship, losing meant being shut out of both the Dragon Qin Cup and the Kohl Cup for a full two years.
Calling it a "fight to the death" would not be an exaggeration.
Two years was enough to change far too many people and things. By then, no one knew what the situation would be.
No matter the reason,
after watching enough competitive matches, one came to understand.
Some people truly could not afford to wait two years.
Lin Tian turned and looked at Gan Yan Yu.
The young woman stared blankly in the direction Nana Li had left.
"Teacher Gan."
"Huh?"
"Stop spacing out. We still need to practice our piece!"
After another two hours of ensemble practice,
it was already past eleven at night.
Although they had become so familiar with Salut d'Amour that they could recite the score backward,
they still had not achieved the effect they wanted.
Just a little short.
Still just a little short!
At this level, the semifinals would be risky!
"Lin Tian, let's change to another piece."
Gan Yan Yu suddenly said.
"Huh?"
Lin Tian had not expected Gan Yan Yu to suggest it herself.
She did not seem like someone who would give up halfway when it came to performing.
"Lin Tian, you've already played very well. I was the one holding you back. If it isn't working now, perhaps the time simply hasn't come yet."
Gan Yan Yu stood and walked over beside the piano.
