Chapter 14: Assessment Ranking Test

Time passes quickly just like that and today, the assessment ranking test will begin. Most trainees didn't even have a fair amount of sleep because of mixed feelings as they saw how time flashes bit by bit. Nervousness and excitement fully bloomed inside their hearts as they waited for their turn to perform.

Jiang Su once again stood in the middle of the huge platform while they were sitting a bit far around him.

"Good day, trainees! Today is the time we've been waiting for! Are you all ready for the assessment ranking test?!"

"Yes!" The crowd cheered.

"Very well. Before that, let us all witness the mentor's performance of 'Galaxy With You'! Around applause please!"

Everyone's eyes brighten and they straighten up subconsciously. They had witnessed Lin Yu's performance on the virtual data during their practice so they aren't expecting much. However, they want to see Xu Xinyi and Pei Roujin's performance too. Especially Xu Xinyi since she's the center and became the leader of her former group. As for Pei Roujin, even if he's not a performer, since he was qualified to be a mentor, then he definitely has skills to show off today.

They wonder, will the doubt around him as a mentor fade away or it will only get worse? That's what they have to see today.

After Jiang Su left the stage, the stadium dimmed again until one by one, countless tiny lights began to lighten around. They could gradually see the comets, the stars— the whole galaxy around them. It was as if they were suddenly brought around here. Then the next second, the familiar melody started along with Lin Yu's voice.

"We've been longing for a dream
A wish that starts within..."

Lin Yu was wearing a plain white shirt with a dark blue coat drop off on his shoulders. It has a small silver chain around the pocket on the chest and it glistens as he moves around. Lin Yu still has the gentle temperament around him as if he was making someone think about how your dream started in the past. When all we just do is to dream what we want and wish for it to happen like a tiny light was born on the galaxy who's eager to lighten the endless darkness.

He perfectly brought the audience to the nostalgia and succeeded in igniting the first fire that grew inside them when they started dreaming to become an idol.

After him, Pei Roujin also entered the stage. He was still wearing his golden rimmed glasses and dark blue long sleeves. And because he buttoned it up to the collar, he looks abstinent and strict. However, when he starts his part, the trainees around couldn't help but brighten even more.

Pei Roujin's voice isn't as good as Lin Yu actually. But it still sounds comfortable to listen to. And as he sings the lyrics, they only realize how suited he is to singing this part.

Because just like how Lin Yu let them see a tiny light born on the galaxy, Pei Roujin let them see how that tiny light awakens about the real struggle of the world. The tiny light finally realizes how hard it is for everyone to see its light because of how large the darkness around him.

"When we realize how it seems endless
The wish that seems too hard to reach
I dimmed and asked myself..."

The trainees felt like they were brought to the time when they kept on training everyday without rest. At that time, they also felt how much time and effort they have to sacrifice just to have the possibility of reaching their dream. However, there is always someone who's greater than them. Even if they paid greater than them, someone is always destined to defeat them just like that. It was as if they, who are too tiny to light the endless darkness of the galaxy, are not qualified to dream about lightening the world.
