Li Qing's natural voice was soft and faintly ethereal. The rasp and anguish he produced through technique were passable, but no more than that.

Still, passable was good enough.

Livestream audiences were fairly forgiving, especially toward good-looking streamers.

Besides, what mattered most for a pop singer was having a distinctive voice.

And a chance to make it big.

Li Qing asked, "What difference does the completion rating make?"

"Of course it matters," the system said. "Put simply, completion measures how well you understand and perform a song. The better you sing it, the more people will sing it, and the faster your reputation will grow."

"Oh."

Qin Qing said, "In other words, it measures how well you sing."

[Ding! The host has triggered a new mission.]

System notification:

[Mission name: A master craftsman does not show unfinished work.]

[Mission objective: Reach a completion rating above 90% on any song awarded by the system.]

[Time limit: 72 hours.]

[Reward: A song suited to the host's voice.]

[Penalty: None.]

It really did hand out missions at the drop of a hat.

Li Qing woke with tears in the corners of his eyes.
