"You guys are doomed to lose, you won't be able to take away the Haidong Image Ambassador title from me and Bi Jian!"
Shu Yinyin walked down the stage with her head held high, speaking to Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue through her nostrils.
However, Gu Yu didn't even bother to turn his head to look at her.
He didn't even care about the title of Haidong Image Ambassador...
If it weren't for his girlfriend wanting to fight for this honor, he'd be in bed playing games right now!
"Feeling nervous?"
Lin Xinyue, too, ignored Shu Yinyin and Bi Jian, stood up, and gently massaged Gu Yu's shoulders and hands to help him relax his muscles.
"Not nervous~ With you here, there's nothing to be nervous about~"
Gu Yu grabbed her hand, grinned, and his smile spread across his face, warmth twinkling in his eyes.
"Such a sweet talker! Alright, it's our turn to go on stage now!"
Lin Xinyue gave Gu Yu a white look and gently pulled him up.
Side by side, they walked towards the bright lights of the stage, like a divine couple heading together towards the hall of a wedding ceremony.
"Damn it! How can those two be so shameless in showing their love!"
Shu Yinyin stomped her feet in anger, intending to slap their faces when she got off the stage.
But those two had ignored her from the beginning to the end!
This gave her the frustrating feeling of punching cotton.
Bi Jian quickly wrapped his arms around Shu Yinyin's waist, stroking her lovely back to soothe her.
"Ah, Yinyin! Those two definitely know they can't compete with us, so they're pretending not to hear us to ease their embarrassment!" Read further adventures at m vl_em|p_yr
"Didn't you see our performance on stage? All the students stood up to cheer and support us, right?"
"Plus, we took the opportunity to win over a wave of popularity votes backstage, so this competition is almost in the bag!"
Calmed by Bi Jian's soft consolations, Shu Yinyin's temper gradually subsided.
But she still felt it shouldn't end there.
"Come with me, let's give those two a little 'surprise'!"
Shu Yinyin looked at the two on stage taking a bow, a sinister glint flashing in her eyes, and without another word, she dragged Bi Jian towards the control room backstage.

"We're going to make them take a nasty fall!"
"Take a fall?"
"Right!"
The two disappeared backstage, while Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue on the stage were getting into the zone.
Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue stood side by side, looking up at the colorful sea before them, as the special effect lights flashed overhead, placing them as if in a dreamlike cyberpunk world.
"Hubby!!!"
"Wifey!"
"Gu Yu, I love you! Lin, I'm your fan!"
"Ahh—my Yubao~ I sneaked in! Aunty will take you home to collect the rent after the show~"
"Let me go, I can pay for a ticket!!! Ahhh, nooo~"
"..."
As the interlopers who had blended into the celebration were led away by security enforcing order, the entire venue's atmosphere reached its apex since the start of the celebration!
The screamings of idol-loving girls were continuous in the audience.
If it weren't for the red banner hanging high in the dome that read "Happy 120th Anniversary to Haidong University!", those watching the live broadcast from outside would have thought it was a Gu Yu concert!
Many people came to the event primarily because of the video of Gu Yu's fame-making confession and singing.
Now that Gu Yu had appeared, the anticipation of all the audience, both inside and outside the venue, was at its peak!
Even Gu Yu on stage did not expect to be so popular.
He was already somewhat nervous, but now, hearing so many people calling his name, his palms and the back of his hands were all sweaty!
Just then, a cool small hand suddenly squeezed into his palm.
Gu Yu turned to look and saw Lin Xinyue's eyes curved like crescents as she smiled at him, her eyes full of encouragement.
Feeling the strength transmitted from Lin Xinyue's fingers, Gu Yu took a deep breath, suppressed all the impetuousness and panic in his heart, and concentrated all his attention on the warm-up music in his earphones.
"What undefeated general ever exists, It's just one who repeatedly walks the path of the Lonely Brave to protect his country behind him!"
"What invincible warrior ever exists, It's just an ordinary person who, knowing it's impossible, still strives to reach the summit!"
"We live in a world of confusion, where everyone charges forward with a heart full of Lonely Brave!"
"Next up, please welcome Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue to sing 'Lonely Brave' for us!"
After the male and female hosts delivered their impassioned lines, they quickly retreated, leaving the stage to Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue.
Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue turned around to face each other, the colorful stage lights suddenly went out, leaving only the central spotlight shining.
[Detected singing occasion, you have one 'Song God State' available! Would you like to use it?]
Gu Yu had just raised the microphone when a system message suddenly popped up in his mind.
"Song God State? Use it!"
He then remembered that when he exchanged for the singing skill before, the system had given him a one-time use of the Song God State, which he had forgotten all about!
Isn't this perfect timing?
[Song God State has been activated!]
With the system prompt, Gu Yu suddenly felt an unprecedented focus filling his mind.
All external noise was blocked out by his ears, leaving only the music from his headphones clear and distinct.
The audience waving their phone flashlights on the stage could no longer distract him; his eyes now saw only Lin Xinyue and the stage!
A sonorous breath circulated through his abdomen, lungs, and oral and nasal cavity, as if he had just chewed ten sticks of mint gum, feeling so fresh and clear!
His breathing became more rhythmic, his whole state was tuned to the peak, as if his arm and microphone had merged!
The accompaniment started!
The whole venue instantly fell silent, and Gu Yu slowly closed his eyes.
Lin Xinyue watched Gu Yu with eyes full of tenderness, and as he closed his eyes, she felt Gu Yu's tense body suddenly relax, his movements becoming incredibly coordinated.
Suddenly, she remembered what Gui Anni had said, that the best state for singing is to be natural.
At this moment, Gu Yu seemed to have become one with the accompaniment, gently swaying to the rhythm of the music.
Unconsciously, Lin Xinyue was also drawn into this rhythm by Gu Yu.
She also closed her eyes slowly, savoring the emotions in the accompaniment.
"This is... the naturalness I emphasized..."
Gui Anni, who was sitting in the third row on the side of the stage, suddenly stood up, staring in disbelief at the two with their eyes closed.
Such a state was indeed precious!
Especially in such a large performance venue, many people tend to become nervous and flustered, leading to a significant dip in their singing level.
However, there are exceptions, and a small few, when faced with this situation and overcoming the initial nervousness, can quickly adjust their body and mind to a state that fits the environment!
At this moment, it was clear that Gu Yu had entered that state!
She had taught students for so many years and had rarely encountered such a situation!
Those students who went out from her guidance always made a big splash in the entertainment circle!
For this reason, Gui Anni had even coined a term for this trait.
It was the Song God State!
Gui Anni silently counted the seconds in her heart; the intro to "Lonely Brave" was twenty seconds, with each second reducing her anticipation grew!
"Come on!"
Gui Anni watched the two on the stage without blinking, quietly clenching her fists and whispering cheers for them!
