Chapter 15: Individual Performance
Shen Lou stood in the middle of the huge stage while wearing a formal dark red coat. He was standing straight like steel and had the temperament of a mix of arrogance and pride. Shen Lou has a cold and strong features and it was his perfect arc jawline that stood out on him. Just by looking at him, anyone can distinguish him as a capable opponent.
And when he opened his thin lips to sing, his strong range of voice was quickly acknowledged. Even though Shen Lou was singing the same lyrics and dancing with the same movements, instead of being like the tiny light on the galaxy, he exudes a feeling of being proud.
His message was to tell that since he's born, he was already destined to stand on stage. That even if he's just a tiny light, one will always notice him and never treat him as no one.
And he successfully ignited everyone's heart to believe we are not born for nothing, so as we chase our dreams, let us be proud to stand even amidst the others' dazzling light in the universe.
Shen Lou is strong, worthy of being the highest participant in this competition. So when he ended his fiery performance, a huge applause welcomed him with great enthusiasm. For the first trainee to perform, instead of getting pressured, he showcased his ability with confidence. It was as if telling them that it is them to be afraid that he's the first, not anybody around the stadium.
The three mentors sitting in front also clap their hands as an acknowledgement for his outstanding performance. When the light went up again, Lin Yu was the first to speak while smiling as he evaluated the young man with approval.
"It was too good. Classmate Shen, you managed to let us witness how the song can transform into another version. You made the song your own which is one of the core that a performer needs. Great job!" Pei Roujin and Xu Xinyi also nod to agree about Lin Yu's evaluation and as expected, Shen Lou was automatically placed on Class S.
Even if it's already expected, everyone still couldn't help but gasp. Class S, that's the highest class that only seven participants can enter. They will have the highest priority inside the training camp and are already considered to have the high possibility of a position to debut.
Jiang Su went on the stage and put the heptagon shaped with a carved golden five leaf clover badge on his chest which signifies his class.
Shen Lou smiles simply after hearing his class and bow slightly before walking off the stage. Along the way, he receives praises from the trainees which he only responds as a casual nod. But even if he looks arrogant, no one will question it after seeing what he's capable of.
Suddenly, Shen Lou's eyes meet Qin An. The latter still has the stoic expression on his face but his eyes have a faint eagerness. It was only a second eye contact, but he seems to feel like he met a strong opponent. Shen Lou raises his brow. Strong opponent? Most likely not.
Or not now.
Shen Lou was actually one of those who voted for Qin An. It's not that he was satisfied with the latter's performance but he feels like he somewhat sees himself in him. They are like two strong people in their own fields. Shen Lou can easily perceive Qin An's arrogance back then. It was really like him. But, Qin An's territory is not on stage, so he was also not expecting for the latter to pass.
After that, although he was quite disappointed, he didn't care about it. Who would have thought that he'll be back immediately? So seeing the latter's constant changes everyday, even if he hasn't seen his progress, the calmness around him intrigues him.
He's sure that he already has something inside his pocket to have this attitude. Did Shen Lou feel threatened? Never. Rather, his blood boils for eagerness instead.
