Chapter 609: The Theme Is Youth

Dai Zhu said, “So fast? But there are only 17 contestants in total. If they eliminate five people in the morning and five more in the afternoon, won’t there only be seven people left on the day of the official compet.i.tion?”

Lu Qi nodded and said, “Yes. Then, the first place will be chosen among these seven people.”

“Oh my G.o.d!” Dai Zhu covered her mouth in shock and said, “I didn’t expect the compet.i.tion to be so fierce!”

As she said this, the counter had already calculated the scores. Among the last five contestants, apart from Tang Mi, the other four were not students of Ivy League University.

Dai Zhu gloated and said, “They said that Jiang Yu would lose face if she went on stage. I think it should be them who lose face! If they were eliminated in the preliminaries. Wouldn’t it be embarra.s.sing if it was disclosed?”

Tian Guo secretly laughed and said, “That’s right! I think they are the ones who will be embarra.s.sed!”

Lu Qi said, “Alright, the results of the compet.i.tion are out. Let’s go find Xiao Yu and have lunch together.”

“Okay!”

However, when the three of them found Jiang Yu, they found that Mo Long had taken Jiang Yu to the car before them.

Dai Zhu said, “… This Mo Long! How can he be so fast!”

Tian Guo pulled Lu Qi and Dai Zhu over and said, “Then let’s go eat. Hurry up and finish it. When we come back, we can watch the preliminaries in the afternoon!”

Dai Zhu mumbled and said, “I still don’t know what theme the judges will give this afternoon…”

After lunch, the three of them quickly returned to the audience seats. There was still a small number of people who had not finished eating and returned.

However, there were still a few minutes left before the afternoon preliminaries began. The judges had already sat down at the judges’ seats and were discussing the theme of this preliminaries.

A few minutes pa.s.sed and the afternoon preliminaries officially began. The judges had already thought of the theme — youth.

Above the stage, there was a sign hung with a ribbon. The word “Youth” was written on it. It was the theme of this preliminaries.

“I’m optimistic about Jiang Yu!” Dai Zhu was very excited and said, “Jiang Yu is in the prime of her youth! Such a song will not be a problem for her!”

Tian Guo was a little worried and said, “But the rest of the contestants are around the same age. Everyone is in the prime of their youth.”

“This…” Dai Zhu was also a little worried.

The first contestant was a foreign student from the art department of Jiangnan University. Her name was Kana.

She bowed politely and then began to play the piano impromptu — The Youth In Her Eyes.

She played the tune very cheerfully, as if the youth in her eyes was very lively and without any worries.

The judges were very satisfied with Kana’s tune. They kept nodding their heads and even secretly saying something to praise this contestant’s extraordinary strength. If she was given guidance, she would definitely have great achievements in the future.

Dai Zhu was a little anxious and said, “How did the first contestant win the judges’ favor? What about Jiang Yu?”

Lu Qi patted her hand to comfort her and said, “It’s okay. Xiao Yu won’t be like them.”

Kana ended her performance. The other contestants backstage also planned to follow Kana’s playstyle and write according to Kana’s playstyle.

It was fine to listen to such a tune once or twice, but if one listened to it too many times, they would get bored.

Therefore, the judges kept nodding their heads from the beginning until they became expressionless and shook their heads in the end. They were all saying that the contestants in the later stages could not advance and were destined to be eliminated.

When it was Jiang Yu’s turn, one of the judges asked, “Jiang Yu, I heard that you are the only contestant who is not a music student. Moreover, you have not studied piano systematically, right?”

Jiang Yu replied respectfully, “Yes.”

The judge asked again, “And I heard that you taught yourself how to play the piano, right?”
