Chapter 651: Unfair

“If the Music Association is this unpredictable, then does it really have any rules?”

“That’s right. If the Music Association is like that, then what’s the point of us working so hard after passing the assessment? We might as well not participate in the assessment!”

Everyone became even more agitated.

If they stopped taking the assessment, then the Music Association would simply lose its status, would they not?

If the Music Association wouldn’t be able to handle this matter today, then they’d use this opportunity to tell all their friends how they had been scammed.

If they really cared about their thoughts, then they would seek justice for them.

What they didn’t expect was for the old man to appear unfazed by their words.

His words were clear—like a bullet that had shot through everyone’s hearts.

“If you’ve really been deprived of your place in the Music Association, then shouldn’t you use this time of rejection to reflect on your own strengths and weaknesses? Didn’t you come here to improve yourself?”

“Or did you come all the way here due to our reputation?”

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed and they all looked away.

How many people participated in the assessment because they love music?

Didn’t all of them only decide to join the Music Association due to their supreme status in the city?

They only wanted to use music to be granted entry into this prestigious organization.

It seemed that their intention had been exposed.

At this point, everyone flushed bright red.

Someone straightened his back. “We want to enter the Music Association to improve our current music level. If we’d be able to enter and ask for guidance from a good teacher then wouldn’t that help us improve?”

He took a deep breath. “Although we may not be good in some areas, you can’t ignore the talents that had guaranteed us this score in the first place. Why do you have to cancel our qualification without any explanation?”

The individual appeared anxious as he tried to explain his side.

The people behind him began chiming in.

“Yeah, we entered the association because of this! Couldn’t the Music Association give us a chance to grow within the organization? Why would you say that we’ve come all the way for its fame and status?”

Everyone agreed.

The old man’s decision had different degrees of influence on all the examinees who had participated.

Other than the Glory Orchestra, no one had passed the third assessment.

Needless to say, those who had passed the first and second assessments felt hopeless now that there had been a change of rules.

There hadn’t been a change of rules before.

So wasn’t this unfair?

Or has their assessment been unfair in the first place?

After hearing their objections, the judges’ faces turned cold.

Cheng Yan leaned forward slightly as he gazed at everyone with sharp eyes. “I think you should all remember that this proposal had only been put forward by the participants in your assessment.”

“At that time, if you hadn’t decided that Yao Tang had failed the assessment, then the Association wouldn’t have conducted a separate assessment for her.”

“Now that she had passed, you feel that the Association is being unfair because you don’t think you can face the struggle she had earlier? What place do you think this is? A place where you could just play around and get lucky?”

Cheng Yan hadn’t said anything when she was placed in a difficult position.

On one hand, he believed that she’d be able to solve it on her own.

On the other hand, he wanted to see if these people would be able to help her. What he didn’t expect was for them to be so shameless in accusing her of something just for their own gain.

Fortunately, Yao Tang managed to surprise him.

If he hadn’t come today, he wouldn’t have known that she’d be this good.

The other judges also had looks of disdain on their faces.
