Chapter 1002: The King of Masked Singers is on fire!



Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

On TV.

The Clown had narrowly defeated The Yak.

The netizens started an endless debate.

"Was there even a need to think? Of course the vote goes to The Clown!"

"It actually got decided by just a few votes?"

"This song that The Yak performed was much worse than The Clown\'s!"

"Yeah, what were the live audience members thinking!"

"Even a fool should be able to deduce which was the better song. How could The Clown have nearly lost this round? "

Next up, the three defeated contestants proceeded to the elimination round and battled each other.

The three contestants were: King of Oddity, Sunset Glow, and The Yak.

This segment was recorded after Zhang Ye had left the studio that day. He had not watched it yet and was naturally interested as he stared unblinkingly at the television.

King of Oddity kicked off the elimination round of performances.

He stuck to his beautiful portamento technique and rap, and he performed well.

After him was Sunset Glow.

"Do you remember what we used to have?

"Holding hands and living simply.

"We weren\'t yet 18 then.

"But we\'d still speak our minds to each other."

It was a love song.

A slow but tasteful love song.

In this second round of performances, Sunset Glow performed rather stunningly. There were no higher pitches, none at all, but she still managed to capture the hearts of many in the audience!

The three contestants took their turns and finished performing.

Eventually, the results of the voting came out!

Sunset Glow easily remained in the competition while The Yak and King of Oddity were both eliminated!

"Take it off!"

"Take it off!"

"Take it off!"

The live audience all stood up and started shouting!

Chen Guang also stood up!

Amy also said excitedly, "Who are you!"

Dong Shanshan smiled and said, "You can choose to reveal your identity, or you can choose to exit the stage with your mask on."

King of Oddity laughed a little and thought for a moment. Then he grabbed his mask and took it off with everyone\'s attention on him.

When the television audience saw the face beneath the mask, many of them were startled!

Chen Guang was stunned. "Little Chi?"

King of Oddity smiled and said, "Hello, Senior Bro."

Amy also knew him personally. "Oh my god! How could it be you!"

Chi Yi! It was Chi Yi, who was from the same agency as Chen Guang!

The Internet also blew up!

"Damn! It\'s our Chi Yi!"

"Why is it him?"

"Man, that\'s a C-list celebrity!"

"In the music industry, Chi Yi was considered quite a big name some years ago. When he first debuted, he was known as a pretty boy to many and had also won an award for best song! He had a glorious past and surely counted as one of the top 30 people in the music industry at that time. But later, for reasons unknown, he stopped releasing albums and switched to acting in movies. Although he was also very popular in the film industry and is a C-list celebrity now, a lot of people still felt it sad that he did not continue his singing career!"

"Why would he be participating in this show?"

"Has Chi Yi gone back to singing?"

"He sang really well! His singing is as good as before!"

"Ahhh, my Little Chi!"

This was an extremely popular celebrity idol!

What\'s more, Chi Yi was a C-list celebrity as well!

After the astonishment faded, everyone thought of something. For someone who was so popular and good at singing, and had been even a professional singer, if this was any other singing show, he definitely would have been saved for a much later appearance. But on the stage of King of Masked Singers, Chi Yi had actually been eliminated in the first episode? What the fuck?! Then who the hell could the remaining masked singers be?! Thinking of this, the audience\'s curiosity suddenly erupted!

King of Oddity turned out to be Chi Yi!

Then who was the other one?

Who was The Yak?

The camera cut to The Yak.

Dong Shanshan asked, "You can choose to reveal your identity, or you can—"

"I choose not to reveal my identity," said The Yak before Dong Shanshan could finish.

The audience was taken aback.

Amy asked anxiously, "Why not?"

Zhang Xia persuaded, "I don\'t think it matters much as those who reveal their identities are definitely not considered losers. There aren\'t any losers at all here today. Also, we really wish to know who you are."

Wang Zhuishu added, "You sang really well!"

But The Yak did not say anything.

Dong Shanshan nodded and said, "OK, we respect your choice."

The Yak bowed to the audience and then mysteriously departed from the stage just like that, still wearing his mask. Perhaps no one in the audience would ever know who this man was.

The netizens were all vexed.

"Reveal your identity, dammit!"

"*faints* Why didn\'t he reveal himself?"

"How very suspenseful!"

"Who could that guy be?"

"*flips table* I\'m so pissed!"

Everyone could only feel that way. If the contestant did not want to reveal their identity, there was nothing they could do about it!

"It\'s time for the next round!"

"Right, it\'s time to battle for the first episode\'s Masked King!"

"Who do you guys think has the best chance of winning?"

"Sunflower of course!"

"Definitely Petal Shower!"

"Right, it\'s basically just between these two. Although I also like The Clown, his voice is really not in good shape. It sounds quite hoarse, and judging from the earlier voting by the live audience members, The Clown stands no chance."

"But why are there people saying that The Clown was crowned the first episode\'s Masked King?"

"That\'s not possible."

"It\'s probably just a rumor."

"When he\'s like that, how can he fight for the throne of the Masked King?"

"Yeah, whether he can even sing his next song at all is questionable."

...

At Old Rao\'s house.

Zhang Ye had been through the final round of this episode\'s competition and already knew the results, so he didn\'t have much interest in the latter part of the show. As he watched, his eyes began to droop and he fell asleep unknowingly.

By the time he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning. He had fallen asleep on the sofa, and someone had covered him with a blanket. The sky was bright and the chirping of birds drifted in from outside.

Zhang Ye got up from the sofa and went to the bathroom. He could feel that his body was in much better condition now. It seemed that Old Rao\'s medicinal herb concoction was actually quite effective, and he didn\'t drink it for nothing.

The front door opened.

Yang Shu came back carrying some things.

"Senior Bro, you\'re up?"

"Where\'d you go?"

"To buy breakfast for you."

"Oh."

"By the way, here\'s today\'s newspapers."

Zhang Ye felt rather happy deep down inside. It was worth taking in this junior martial sister of his. Just look at all that she had done. "Where\'s Old Rao and Chenchen?"

"Master Rao took the kid out for morning exercises," Yang Shu replied.

Zhang Ye nodded then flipped open one of the newspapers.

"Chi Yi participates in King of Masked Singers!"

"King of Masked Singers\' premiere episode! Chi Yi gets eliminated!"

"The Clown crowned first Masked King!"

"\'Wild Rose\' search term trends to top spot!"

"King of Masked Singers\' premiere episode a hit! Trending #1 on Weibo! "

"Who is The Clown? "

"Speculation on Petal Shower\'s identity! "

The newspapers were all full of news regarding King of Masked Singers!

While eating breakfast, Zhang Ye browsed through Weibo and realized that there were also an overwhelming amount of discussions online!

"That was so fun!"

"King of Masked Singers\' first episode was so damn interesting!"

"Much love to Petal Shower!"

"Much love to The Clown. I love him so much!"

"The Clown was so cool. That last song, \'Wild Rose,\' made me cry for real!"

"Me too. \'I am a beautiful, beautiful wild rose.\' I was totally pulled in and have already listened to it more than 10 times. Each time I hear it, I shed some tears!"

"Poor Chi Yi!"

"Chi Yi is supposed to be a really good singer and very popular too. How did he get eliminated!"

"The Yak is such a coward! He was too scared to even show his face!"

"Yeah, what a cheat! Even now, no one knows who he is!"

"When will the next episode be broadcast? Hurry up! I can\'t wait! I wanna continue listening to The Clown sing! His songs are so amazingly touching!"

"The next Masked King will definitely be Sunflower!"

"Get lost! It\'ll definitely be our Petal Shower!"

"Who\'s the most popular right now?"

"A poll shows that most people are interested in The Clown."

"The Clown? He only won because of luck."

"Nonsense! Go and check out today\'s Top Chinese Music Chart!"

Zhang Ye decided to do so. He found out that on the music industry\'s authoritative Top Chinese Music Chart, seven out of the top ten spots were taken by songs that were performed on King of Masked Singers!

#10: King of Oddity\'s "Idiot."

#9: A new song by a big name of the music industry.

#8: Sunflower in the Starlight\'s "Like Smoke, As Water."

#7: Sunset Glow\'s "My Past Lover."

#5: The Clown\'s "Wolf."

#4: Petal Shower\'s "On a Little Night Like This."

#3 was the song that Zhang Ye wrote and composed for Spring Garden—"Super Star." This song had already been charting for some time.

Number 2 was also another song performed by Petal Shower.

Then, impressively, at first place was "Wild Rose"!

Even on the monthly rankings of the Top Chinese Music Chart, although "Wild Rose" had only charted for a day since getting published last night, it had already shot up on the monthly chart to 11th!

In only a single day!

In the short span of barely a day!

"Wild Rose" had been shared and recommended like crazy!

Zhang Ye was sitting in the apartment and eating breakfast when he suddenly heard the tone-deaf singing of some men floating in from outside the windows. "I\'m a beautiful, beautiful wild rose. / Hating the Heavens for being unfair."

There were already people who knew how to sing the song!

So you could imagine just how quickly the song had propagated through the masses!

Even Zhang Ye himself had not expected this. A slightly more niche song from his previous world had such a great influence and spread so quickly over here. Such news was very encouraging to him. Together with the newspaper articles and looking at the heated discussions online, Zhang Ye could already feel it clearly.

King of Masked Singers was on fire!
