Chapter 94: Is She Qualified?!

Translator: Lordbluefire 

The moment Yan Zijing entered, she saw Shen Ruojing who was clad in white.

In addition to the white feather mask, it made Shen Ruojing seem like an immortal maiden!

Seeing it, Yan Zijing immediately fell in love with the attire, hence, she forced Bai Shanshan to come here to ask.

Shen Ruojing narrowed her eyes and calmly spoke, “I’m not willing.”

Bai Shanshan also felt that her request was a little overboard, and tears could be seen in her eyes. This 100 kg fatty almost seemed like a child as she mumbled, “Oh, oh. Okay.”

She hurriedly left. After that, Shen Ruojing heard Yan Zijing angrily scolding her in a low voice, “She is just a newbie, does she know the rules?”

Shen Ruojing wanted to say something, but Jing Zhen already recognized her voice. He then asked with disbelief, “Jingjing?”

“Mn.”

After that, Shen Ruojing just sat there and felt bored. Hence, she took out her phone and discovered a message Ye Lu sent her. [Remember that we have an appointment to do an operation for Mr. Yun tonight~]

Shen Ruojing replied: [Sure.]

After sending the message, Shen Qianhui came over. “I’ve greeted them. Later on, you will be the first to go. It doesn’t matter if you sing well or not, just treat it as getting the ball rolling!”

Jing Zhen also laughed. “A day’s tour at Masked Singers. Jingjing, your retirement life is pretty good!”

Shen Ruojing. “…”

Very soon, the time to record the program arrived.

She was indeed the first to go on stage. After Shen Ruojing walked up the stage, her gaze casually swept through the judges, and she discovered that there was actually someone she was familiar with among the four judges. It was none other than Yang Zhiqin.

“White Feather, can you introduce yourself?” The host asked, “Are you an actress or a singer?”

Shen Ruojing calmly replied, “I’m neither.”

There was a voice-changer inside the mask so when her voice rang out, it was an electronic voice.

When Shen Ruojing said this, Yang Zhiqin who was seated in the judges’ area glanced over. Why did White Feather’s aura and her way of speaking resemble Anonymous a little?

Just when she was pondering, the host laughed. “Alright. In that case, let us invite White Feather to play a song for us!”

Shen Ruojing walked to the piano and began playing [Ranryo-O]

Because this was a singing program, she added the words from an ancient poem to it.

~~~

Fierce horses, long lances, iron masks

Armor, cloaks, swords, and guts.

…

A long screech, riding a horse to block a thousand enemies.

Despite the superiority in enemy numbers.

Iron hooves trample upon the mountains.

…

A hundred refinements until one’s fingers grow soft.

Whose daughter~

A shallow paper crane filled with meaning.

In the blink of an eye, a cup of poisoned wine.

A scope of yellow soil.

How much lamentation is hidden within?

Thousand years later~

When someone reminisces…

They play a song on the guitar.

Ranryo-O appears again.

~~~

Her cool voice and perfect pitch, in addition to the forceful metal music, made this performance have an extremely high appreciation value despite her not singing a single sentence.

After her performance ended, the audience burst into intense applause.

Yang Zhiqin’s eyes turned even brighter. Today, everyone here was from the entertainment industry, and the judges were famous heavenly kings and queens. However, they were all inferior to Yang Zhiqin who was a musician. Hence, through Shen Ruojing’s hand movements when she played the piano earlier, Yang Zhiqin immediately recognized her!

The host went up the stage again. “Such a performance method is really special. In addition, White Feather’s voice is also very unique!”

Yang Zhiqin nodded and laughed. “Correct, Teacher White Feather’s voice is like a clear piece of jade entering water. In the blazing summer, it relieves the heat. In addition, I like your performance very much.”

However, a judge at the side frowned. “However, we are a singing variety show…Teacher White Feather’s performance…I’m afraid the effect wouldn’t be too good.”

Shen Ruojing was very carefree. “It doesn’t matter.”

After the performance ended, the performer could sit near the judges’ area and watch the remaining performances together. Hence, Shen Ruojing walked over and sat behind Yang Zhiqin.

After that, a few other performers went up. The majority of them were actors, but their singing skills were very impressive too and received good evaluations from the judges.

Jing Zhen also went up the stage, singing his new song [Life is a Game]. His powerful low notes received a good evaluation from the judges unanimously.

In the end, the final performer today was Yan Zijing.

She looked graceful in the red dress. Coupled with the gold mask, her entire person looked radiant.

She sang the song which made her famous. The moment her voice rang out, her dolphin voice wowed the crowd. It was clear and had a sense of holiness. Because of it, the entire song sounded as though it was sung by a fairy from the immortal world!

“Yan Zijing! Yan Zijing!”

“Ahhh~ Sister’s dolphin voice is so good!”

“I knelt immediately when I heard her voice! In the entire entertainment industry, she’s probably the only one who has such an empty and holy-sounding voice!”

“…”

Shen Ruojing sat on a chair that was specially prepared behind the judges. This place was very close to the audience seat, so she could directly hear the comments of the audience.

It seemed like Yan Zijing was indeed very popular.

However…

She frowned.

When Yan Zijing sang this, the judges began laughing.

“I think I’ve managed to guess who she is!”

“Yeah, her voice is too unique and many people are imitating her during these years, but none has succeeded. Hence, her identity can only be Yan Zijing…”

“Her voice is too moving. It is simply a voice from the heavens!”

The other three judges gave very high evaluations, but when Yang Zhiqin’s turn arrived, she furrowed her brows. “Although her voice is very pleasant, I keep feeling that something is wrong, but I’m unable to discern what it is exactly…”

When Yang Zhiqin said this, she suddenly recalled that there was an expert behind her. Hence, she turned her head and looked at Shen Ruojing. “Teacher White Feather, how do you feel about her song?”

Shen Ruojing frowned. She suddenly laughed and spoke, “The song is nice to listen to, and she is indeed pretty. However, the song and her give off a feeling like their essence is clashing. They are somewhat incompatible.”

The moment Yan Zijing opened her mouth, Shen Ruojing felt uncomfortable…

It was one thing if she wasn’t acquainted with Yan Zijing, but they had had an interaction backstage. Yan Zijing was a very overbearing person, but her dolphin voice earlier, as well as the emotions portrayed by the song… were completely incompatible with her true personality!

It seemed as though…someone was singing for her!

Shen Ruojing spoke the truth, but she neglected the fact that this was a variety show.

And it was also a live broadcast!

The moment she said this, the bullet screen and the live audience instantly went mad.

——Why should Teacher Yang care about White Feather? Who the hell is she? How can she even evaluate Yan Zijing?

——Correct. What nonsense was her performance? The way she sang sounded like a stranger, so she must be a newbie. What qualifications does she have to critique Yan Zijing?

——The song and Yan Zijing are incompatible? Is she trying to say that Yan Zijing is lip-syncing? However, we know that Yan Zijing is a professional singer and she has always sung live!

The audience on the scene began booing, and someone directly scolded her.

“White Feather, who the hell do you think you are? On what grounds are you qualified to evaluate Yan Zijing?”

“Yup…A small-time celebrity actually dares to slander others like this?”

“…”

Yang Zhiqin frowned. She grew somewhat angry. “Giving an evaluation is one’s freedom. In addition, she is the one most qualified here to evaluate others!”

The audience booed again.

Yan Zijing really knew how to act. She bit her lips and appeared aggrieved. “I’ve remembered Teacher White Feather’s evaluation…”

As she said this, her fans immediately grew more impulsive and started cursing even more vehemently on the bullet screen.

In fact, people even began to curse the program team on Weibo.

The director found Shen Qianhui and asked anxiously, “What should we do?”

Shen Qianhui was also very angry when she saw her daughter getting scolded. She coldly laughed. “Yan Zijing agreed to participate because I promised to give her a song by Teacher Anonymous…Don’t be anxious, the elimination list will be announced soon. Get Jingjing to reveal her identity, so Yan Zijing and the audience can see if my daughter has the qualifications to critique her or not!”
