Number One Under Heaven

Chapter 105 - Very Rarely Do I Get To Play For Others

"Tian Yi... is your name?"

Tang Yi did not miss it when Qiu Heng spoke to him.

They had the same given name... was this a coincidence... or was this fate?

"Then Junior Brother Tian, what was it about my performance that did you not find satisfying?" she asked him.

Tian Yi looked at her with a strange face. What did he do to get caught up in this? Where did she get this idea of him not finding it not satisfying?

Although he was confused at her actions, he still sort of knew what she was trying to ask.

"Your zither playing... was not bad---"

The muscle on Tang Yi's face uncontrollably twitched. Not bad? Just not bad? All she had done was just 'not bad'?!

The audience went into an uproar when they heard that. Not bad?! Their ears were literally getting orgasms from experiencing her zither play and all he said was 'not bad'? If he's not deaf, then who in this world can be considered deaf?!

Little did they know that 'not bad' was already a very good compliment from somebody like him.

Tian Yi ignored the uproar and continued, "It's not bad, but... what are you confused about?" he asked her.

Tang Yi lifted her eyebrows in surprise, "Confused? You are saying that I am confused?"

He nodded, "Your skills are no doubt better than the girls behind you, but if I had to compare you two, then I would say I had gotten more enjoyment from them."

Tang Yi frowned upon hearing that. She was better than her fellow disciples yet he liked their performance better than hers? What was the logic in that?

The girls behind her were a bit shocked when they heard that he enjoyed their performance better than their senior apprentice-sister Tang. That was truly something they had never expected to hear.

Maybe this kid was extremely bad at comparing things? Maybe he's piss poor with his judgment? They could not help but doubt his words.

The audience also could not help but laugh at his words.

"Fairy Tang is worse than the others? Are you deaf? Hahaha!"

They were indeed worse than Tang Yi, and it was a fact. Yet the girls still frowned upon hearing that. While they were aware of such facts, it still did not feel good to hear such statements. They rather listen to this young man bullshit than hear the audience speaking of facts.

"Can you elaborate? What do you mean by that?" Tang Yi asked him.

Tian Yi nodded, "Their music brought joy, sorrow, excitement, and all sorts of emotions within their notes, yet yours... they were nothing but empty notes. No happiness, joy, or excitement could be felt from your notes---"

"Bullshit! I was excited when I heard Fairy Tang's songs!"

"Yeah! What empty notes? Your words are empty!"

"Silence!"

Tang Yi shouted, silencing the audience.

A serious expression hung on her fairy-like face, and she continued, "Even if what you said is true... t-that m-my notes are e-empty... how does that make me confused?" she had a hard time calling her own notes 'empty'.

Tian Yi shrugged his shoulders at her question, "Just a feeling," he said nonchalantly.

"..."

A vein unknowingly bulged on Tang Yi's forehead, she was clearly mad at that half-assed answer.
