After Fang You finished punishing Asai Reina, Xia Nuo sidled up to him:
"You You, let me ask you a question."
"What is it?" Fang You frowned.
"Didn't you eat enough last night? Why were you hitting so gently?"
?
Stinky Nuo Nuo!
As Asai Reina realized she was due for a more severe beating, she saw Xia Nuo being grabbed by Fang You and given a firm slap on the drum.
It was crisp and loud.
"Does it hurt?"
"Not at all, not at all!" Xia Nuo said, shaking her head with a smile.
Smack!
"Does it hurt?"
"Not one bit!"
Xia Nuo was still grinning playfully.
Upon seeing Xia Nuo being sternly dealt with by Fang You, Asai Reina suddenly felt somewhat displeased:
"Nuo Nuo, you didn't break any rules, you shouldn't be hit, only Ling Nai is allowed to be!"
"Alright then, your turn."
Xia Nuo, rubbing her somewhat numb drum, was about to make way for Ling Nai when a pillow came flying and hit Fang You in the back.
"Ayu, are you also asking for a spanking?"
Luo Xianyu grumbled but didn't speak, then slowly walked up to the front.
...
These rambunctious kids, even eager to line up to play the drum, unbelievable.
But Ayu always acts so fragile, I can't hit too hard, I'll just pretend a bit.
Fang You, not using too much force, slapped Luo Xianyu's drum.
Umm...
Whimper...
The smile on Luo Xianyu's face suddenly vanished.
She silently lowered her head.
Xia Nuo and Asai Reina hurried over to check when they noticed.
Whimpering—
Large teardrops fell from Luo Xianyu's face!
Fang You had made Ayu cry!
Before their parents could find out, the children quickly took turns comforting the wailing Ayu.
Just then, a system notification popped up in Fang You's display:
[Congratulations, you made a girl cry! Growth Energy +1000, current growth level Lv6 (46011/50000)]
[Unlocked Talent [Pleasure Offender]: Every time you slap a girl's drum, you will gain at least 1 point of Emotional Energy]
[Growth Potential: You can accumulate pleasure experience from similar behavior, upgrade to obtain more Emotional Energy from more ways]
What's there to congratulate, huh!
And what's so good about growing this talent?
Fang You suddenly felt the system's deep malice.
So, the children played while preparing their performances.
Quickly, the fateful June 20th arrived.
Moe King Championship night!
"Hello to the audience in front of the TV and everyone here, welcome to watch 'The Ultimate Moe Kid Show,' a large-scale parent-child variety talent show broadcast jointly by Huashi ZZTV and Yingdu YBS! Thank you all for coming, and once again, we have a full house at Yingdu Dome Sports Stadium! I am your familiar old friend, Big Dong!"
"Hello, everyone! I'm your host, Gugu Zi! Yay—"
Gugu Zi lifted a leg and winked at the camera.
Accompanied by a wave of cheers, rising slowly from the stage's lift, the star that appeared was—
The most popular and powerful newcomer, topping the charts, Meng Zifan!
The entire venue of star-chasing fans were shouting Meng Zifan's name!
Meng Zifan too danced along with the dynamic music, fully enjoying the allure of the stage!
[I am gentle, considerate, and bursting with energy]
[I ease into all kinds of musical styles with a light heart]
[Wave your arms, keep up with the beat]
[Every vein in your body is pulsing]
[Admit it, you've fallen for me]
Qu Mo swayed with the rhythm, his styled hair flying every which way.
Ordinary people can only think of that well-known "Juju Hero" song, the "Lalala Hey I Want to Fly a Plane."
But I am no longer that childish kid.
I'll choose a song that's more mature and cool!
[I am the god of men, spinning for myself alone]
[Nothing is impossible for me]
.net
[Let the whole world follow]
[Intoxicated to the point of no return]
[Check out my charming smile]
[So handsome it's incurable]
"It's 'The Song of the God of Men' from the newest movie 'The Battle of Destiny' by 'Juju Stick'!"
"These lyrics, so funny hahaha, who came up with these?"
"Zi Fan, Zi Fan, I love you! I want to have your monkeys!"
"Who's that kid? Why is he always stealing the spotlight from my idol, looking like a pig!"
Today, Qu Mo is still sweating non-stop!
His drumsticks flew with every hit!
But this time, it wasn't tears or pee.
It was sweat, drizzled with passion!
You You, let's see how you can beat me!
At this moment, Qu Mo also immersed himself in the atmosphere of the song, dancing to the rhythm as if he himself was that god of men.
...
[I, Oh~oh~oh, am the god of men]
[I make mirrors shatter]
[You, Ey~ey~ey, scream for me]
[Head over heels, oh oh oh——]
After striking the last beat with his drumsticks, Qu Mo proceeded to the front of the stage.
He faintly heard the rising cheers.
Shout, cry out.
Call out my name.
Let that little baby know who the one and only Drum Prodigy on the 'Mightiest Moe Kid Show' stage really is!
The voices became clearer and clearer.
...
But somehow, it seemed a bit off...
"Zi Fan—— Zi Fan—— Zi Fan——"
As he watched the man at the front of the stage basking in the enthusiastic cheers of his fans, Qu Mo finally realized a bitter truth:
He had been, been upstaged by that smug guy!
