Chapter 11: Assessment Practice

Immediately after Qin An fixed himself on his room, he adjusted his state again before he went out and let the robot lead him to an unoccupied training room. The medium size practice room is just like the normal mirror room on Earth. Just a huge mirror wall with a small desk on the side.

Because this building block mental power so the participants cannot contact the outside world, they prepared an gadgets themselves. Qin An went towards the wall on the side and a series of light buttons was quickly revealed in front of him and a virtual screen. He clicked on the only video inside and immediately, the whole room went dim and he saw a virtual body of a person standing in front of him.

It was Lin Yu. He was still standing with his gentle temperament and his smile became wider when he saw him.

"Hello, classmate. I am your mentor Lin Yu. Today, I will demonstrate to you the first assessment that you have to take. For our official ranking to classify which class you'll be in, an assessment test will be performed a few days later. You have to perform the OST of Lucky99 and let us see your own interpretation and best performance." His voice was like a summer breeze echoed in the whole room, faintly giving others a relief. "Please watch the performance carefully and study well, classmate."

After that, a melodic sound from the piano starts as Lin Yu also opens his lips to sing.

"We've been longing for a dream
A wish that starts within
You and I dance towards the galaxy
Hoping to be each other's star..."

Lin Yu also begins moving with elegance as he performs the steps with perfect accuracy. He was very elegant and exquisite, like a rose fully revealing its beauty that could hook anyone. As he also sings the lyrics, Qin An feels as if Lin Yu was telling him that they are like someone who keeps on dancing on the lonely and wide galaxy. They are eager to move endlessly until they become a star that'll give a light for anyone who's looking up to them.

So that the galaxy won't be as lonely as it could be, and you would see that there's light means there's always hope.

"I'll be the guide watching you
We'll be the light
As you are also my star
Lighting my galaxy, always my hope, my love."

As Lin Yu sings the final words of the song, he makes a turn before stretching his right hand forward as if offering his own self towards the audience. His eyes were full of gentleness and he finished his performance naturally, easy and happy.

A second happens for his final end before he stands straight again. "This is our OST for Lucky99. It's entitled Galaxy With You. We'll be expecting your performance after that. Please practice well and do your best. Good luck, classmate."

Then, Lin Yu's virtual body disappears and the light turns back inside the practice room. Qin An was left staring at his own reflection on the mirror wall in front of him.

Pei Roujin and Xu Xinyi's evaluation of him on that day was rooted in his mind. He knew that they were right. He has to learn to become a human.

However, thinking about Lin Yu's performance earlier, he was at a loss. What the mentor showed him was an emotion with hope, happiness, gentleness and inspiration. From the lyrics itself, it tells that the song is about giving hope for everyone. Qin An can actually understand that.

But, he doesn't know how to feel that way. His emotional intelligence is practically zero. Even if he studied and learned various emotions in the past few days, it'll never be enough for him to feel enough empathy.

Just as he was thinking deeply about how to solve this, the door opened and Pei Roujin was revealed.

Qin An quickly remembers the greeting ritual for seniors. Even if his movement was stiff, he still bows his head lightly and tries to relax himself.
