836 Young Master, Thank Young Master

In the virtual world, Heloise in her make-up room.

With Li Tianxing supporting her secretly, Heloise's backing was rather strong. Her spirit and energy were greatly increased as a result. One could only see confidence from her face.

"I must be the best!" Heloise cheered for herself. "The other singers are not worth mentioning! As long as I perform well, I will be able to gain countless fans. With popularity, my future will be bright!"

Heloise was extremely confident in this.

She was quite talented and was very different from ordinary singers. Otherwise, she wouldn't have the guts to seek Yin Tianzong's support.

Of course, there was a small hiccup in the process, but the final result was pretty good—she actually received the support of Li Tianxing, which was stronger than Yin Tianzong. That was really a sudden glimpse of hope in the dark mist of bewilderment. The world was wonderful and unexpected.

"These people have good vision, hehe. I like it. I need to prepare well for today's semi-finals." Heloise said, proud of herself. "Young Master Tianxing has arranged for the most professional dancers.

…

In the virtual world.

Hong Dali's lackeys had gathered. Ling Xiaoyi asked softly, "Sister Nianwei, it's almost time, right? Should we set off to the arena now?"

"En, it's almost time." Li Nianwei looked around at the continuous flow of people and secretly cheered herself on. "For Young Master's sake, you can do it!"

"Sister Nianwei, go for it!" The others cheered for Li Nianwei. "Sister Nianwei, you can sing so well and you're so beautiful. Hehe. You will definitely cause a sensation this time, you can do it!"

"En." Li Nianwei was confident in her singing. "In that case, let's set off!"

At the portal network, Li Nianwei presented her card and a white light flashed across. Li Nianwei appeared directly at the make-up hall. At this time, all the contestants had already arrived to prepare for the competition which would begin in another twenty minutes.

Li Nianwei's entrance caught the attention of the singers who had already put on makeup and were waiting to enter the arena.

"Quick, look. Someone else is here. She's so beautiful. I wonder what is her ranking."

"I don't know. I don't remember seeing her previously."

"Who knows. Maybe she's a string-puller. If she got the backing of someone powerful, it was possible to join the competition halfway."

"En, that's true. She's so beautiful, I wonder how well she sings. However, she had to depend on backing. Her singing should be mediocre."

"Yes, yes. She must have advanced with the help of strong backing. Otherwise, wouldn't she be wasting her beautiful looks? Haha!"

Why else would people say women tend to be more jealous. Li Nianwei had nothing to do with them, but the problem was that she was too beautiful—the highest charisma level of 125 determined by the System was no joke.

So, these jealous women initially whispered among themselves, then they slowly moved further and further away from Li Nianwei. In the end, they formed their own group and completely isolated Li Nianwei.

Those of the same occupation were enemies. It was obvious at this point.

As for the male singers, their eyes were full of Li Nianwei. They secretly looked at her from top to bottom. Some had wanted to chat her up but did not have the guts. Of course, it was inevitable for them to observe her from afar.

Of course, Shenluo City had the best singer, Heloise. Others did not have much hope in taking the first place. Hence, they naturally thought of finding a backing to secure the second or third place—some approached Heloise directly. "Sister Heloise, it seems a rather strong newcomer has joined our area competition."

"Humph, are you reporting to me about every Tom, Dick, and Harry?" Heloise's condescending voice was heard from the room. "Don't disturb me. Don't you know I'm busy?"

"I'm sorry. But the newcomer is really beautiful." The person continued to feed information. "Everyone is jealous. But those male singers are all ogling at her. It's infuriating."

"So beautiful?" Heloise mumbled, then said lazily, "Alright, I'll go take a look at this person."

The room door opened and Heloise walked out.

She was in a yellow gown and her train dragged on the ground. Pushed up bosoms with a tiny waist, matching her thick makeup. She looked coquettish.

"Where?" Heloise was like the queen as she lifted her head slightly. "I want to see who exactly this person is."

They soon arrived at the make-up hall. Heloise scanned the hall to see Li Nianwei, who was sticking out of the crowd. "En, it's you."

"It's been a long time." Li Nianwei's voice was neither too far nor too near. To be honest, she had really forgotten Heloise. Hence, when she saw her, Li Nianwei's heart jumped a beat. But she soon calmed down—a small opponent like Heloise, she probably did not know that Li Nianwei had gone to Earth to fight the Zergs with Young Master. Hence, she felt at ease.

"It's been a long time." Sure enough, Heloise circled Li Nianwei twice. She didn't care that Li Nianwei had appeared here. "Aiya, you're quite capable. It's really stressful. But this is Sing! Milky Way, what is important is talent. In that case," She used her finger to lift Li Nianwei's chin. "ready to experience the bitter taste of failure?"

Heloise had Li Tianxing behind her back. There was naturally no need for her to be courteous towards Li Nianwei.

As the queen around here, Heloise's words received warm applause from all the women around her—at this moment, of course, flattering was absolutely needed.

Li Nianwei was not angry. She looked at Heloise and smiled. "Don't worry. I won't let you down."

"En, you've got attitude." Both of them were like a Queen looking at a peasant. Heloise was high up there and Li Nianwei was in leather without make-up. Heloise smiled. "Semi-finals, only three will be selected out of one hundred, to compete against singers from over three thousand main cities. You have to be prepared, the competition is…"

She whispered into Li Nianwei's ear, "very ruthless!"

Saying that she laughed out loud. "Alright, I won't scare you anymore. Good luck. Of course, you are bound to fail. This will not change. Haha!"

"If it were in the past," Seeing the furious Heloise, Li Nianwei smiled calmly. "I would have been angry. But now, no longer. Because… we are not competing for ourselves. Young Master has become my biggest support…" She thought this in her heart. Li Nianwei began to remember what happened three years ago.

Three years ago.

On Earth, Li Nianwei had just finished Year 2 in University.

Talented and obsessed with music, Li Nianwei was the most beautiful girl in the campus. Countless rich men's sons surrounded her like houseflies. She was the most popular girl in school.

If it were someone else, they would probably date someone with the most powerful family background. With strong backing, they would then enter the entertainment business directly.

Of course, everything came with a price. In order to gain something, something else must be lost.

That way, they may look glamorous on the outside, but might not necessarily be happy.

Many celebrities who got married to rich families were not living the life they thought they would. Not to mention those that depended on others to become celebrities.

Hence, Li Nianwei did not date a single man in school. She did not want to depend on anybody. She had dreams.

She strongly believed that with talent, she would be able to succeed.

When she graduated, she chose to sign as a singer under a relatively good entertainment company.

But when she entered the entertainment business, she realized that the water there was much deeper than she had imagined.

The Director of the company was interested in her and wanted to provide for her.

She rejected decisively. At that moment, she realized that could probably be the end of her career in the music industry.

What was most important for singers?

The answer was definite—good songs.

Without good songs, looks would not get them anywhere. The Director did not get what he wanted. The result was simple, there would be no good songs for her to sing.

Without good songs, no matter how good her voice was, listeners wouldn't listen to her. Everything was useless.

Li Nianwei had intended to break her contract and join another company. But she could not afford to breach the contract. She had signed a five-year contract. How long did a singer's career last? If she really waited for five years, she would have grown old. How would she succeed, then?

She was desperate, there was no road to Heaven and no door to the Earth. She thought of giving up. Perhaps she was not suitable to be in the entertainment business.

But right at this moment, she met Young Master Hong Dali.

In an instant, the skies turned blue, the grass turned green. The world was no longer gray…

"Young Master, thank you." Li Nianwei's tears welled up. "If not for you, my dreams would have been completely dashed…"
