Chapter 124 Part 2: Tang Liuli’s “Heart Flow,” Galaxies and Flames, Ultimate Victory. (2)

For over a month since Tang Liuli silently disappeared from the spotlight, countless fans have been speculating about why this once cheerful and inspiring child star transformed into a melancholic, socially anxious girl, as if she had lost her sparkle.

Tang Liuli has never directly addressed the reason, her Weibo posts remaining formulaic and detached, as if deliberately erasing, or even avoiding mention of, the six years she vanished from the public eye.

As the girl begins to sing, after just a few seconds, all the fans feel a pang in their hearts, realizing one truth – their beloved child star is using this song to respond to her six-year absence.

Tang Liuli’s singing grows increasingly emotional, like a slowly rising tsunami. Her breath remains steady despite the frequent dance movements, building toward a powerful climax.

Kirimi Miyuki’s song “Heart Flow” continues to shine brilliantly, elevating the stage atmosphere to new heights.

In comparison, Chu Wang Shu appears subdued and less prominent.

The reason is straightforward: in the trio’s version of “Into the New World,” the Carry Center and lead singer account for 80% of the presence, leaving the third person with minimal contribution.

One should understand that synchronizing with teammates at such a high level is already challenging enough to serve as effective background support in the dance.

Chu Wang Shu wasn’t discouraged. She had no reason to outshine Little Sakura, who had been in the industry for seven years, with her amateur efforts, nor did she expect to surpass the childhood idol who was nationally popular six years ago.

Little Qing once told her that it’s acceptable not to be first.

Dad said it’s fine not to push herself too hard.

So, there’s no need for worry or anxiety.

She simply needs to improve quietly within her capabilities.

With this mindset, even during complex dance sequences involving multiple steps and high-difficulty kicks and waves, she successfully maintained her teammates’ rhythm, demonstrating perfect coordination with them, becoming an essential element in the harmonious “Heart Flow.”

This is the nature of a girl group, where even though some members shine brighter on stage, the occasional contributions from supporting members can still be appreciated by the audience, becoming a unique element that influences the group’s style and charm.

Chu Wang Shu may not shine brightly enough now, but her presence ensures her teammates can perform without concern.

Kirimi Miyuki’s eyebrows curved upward, her lips forming a perfect smile. She took a deep breath, then assumed the singing role, later passing it to the lead singer when changing positions again.

Tang Liuli’s singing resonated powerfully. Her voice seemed to transcend time, utilizing a once-quiet soul that gradually found courage, as if igniting the world with meteor-like passion.

“No need for extra words in sight, just this frozen moment in time.”

– I have conveyed my answer.

“I love you, and with this feeling, the confusion and wandering come to an end.”

– I want to explore more interests, to discover life’s meaning, to become an independent adult. Love built on this foundation is mature rather than consuming.

“The ever-changing sadness in this world, now saying goodbye.”

– From today onward, I sincerely bid farewell to the past.

“I chase after a blurry light on countless unknown paths.”

Even if it’s difficult, it’s acceptable. It doesn’t matter if you feel embarrassed about retreating in the future.

“We will always be together, until our worlds meet again.”

One day, I will become mature and sensible, without losing my youthful passion, becoming the idol that fulfills your expectations and is truly admirable and cherished by you.

The sound lingers.

The vast night sky filled with stars once again spread across the field of vision, but this time, instead of being extinguished by the Great Devil, all the stars reignited one after another as Tang Liuli continued singing.

Swish, swish.

As the strong wind blows, the waves surge.

All the flames burn fiercely under the influence of the dual [Heart Flow] in the song “Encounter With the World.”

In this moment, as if gathering myriad emotions, the dim night sky suddenly becomes radiant, weaving a magnificent galaxy that heals the soul.

Tang Liuli found herself in a strange and magical scene, her eyes wide with surprise. It differed from feeling her mother’s spirit or accepting others’ emotions previously.

The emotions from the audience and fans were gentle and remarkable, like soft moonlight, bringing warmth and comforting words. They filled her soul with pure love.

So, her talent could manifest this gently…

The stage performance gradually concluded.

Countless powerful emotions infused with magic surged into the moon wings on her chest, the sapphire blue gemstones shimmering. It was like a breakthrough, imparting a hint of spirituality to the Artificial Lantern.

Tang Liuli remained entranced for some time; she hadn’t anticipated any of this before going on stage.

By channeling her emotions into the performance and using “Heart Flow” to sing “Encounter With the World,” many questions she had been contemplating lately suddenly found answers. This resulted in a truly memorable stage performance.

Kirimi Miyuki’s breathing quickened slightly, a thin layer of sweat appearing on her fair neck. Her smile when facing the camera remained genuine and joyful, filled with passion and happiness.

It felt wonderful to return to the stage, completing another impressive performance within her capabilities.

The Rose Oath badge gleamed in the light, its platinum flower bud seemingly blooming for real, emanating a wondrous spiritual energy on the extraordinarily pure stage, absorbing substantial magic and connecting deeply with souls.

Clearly, although Tang Liuli possessed superior talents in Heart Flow, Kirimi excelled in purity, matching and even surpassing her opponent’s progress.

This is the primary reason why Dream Weaver Rabbit continuously monitors Kirimi Miyuki.

Chen Yining exists for Ji Shuzhu; Xie Qingxuan aims to destroy her sister’s dreams; Tang Liuli is gifted in this area, but her purity, development, and ambitions in the idol field remain too shallow.

Currently, only her Heart Flow is purely dedicated to the stage and idol profession.

Its high purity, even desires toward Chu Yuanqing, cannot be contaminated with any impurities.

Chu Wang Shu felt relieved, sharing a relaxed, joyful smile with her teammates, savoring the satisfaction of completing the performance, temporarily forgetting about winning or losing. Her thoughts accelerated momentarily, making the stage lights flicker vividly.

However, this sensation vanished instantly, like an illusion.

Meanwhile, comments in the live broadcast room surged like a tsunami:

“Amazing! I thought Great Devil’s team would win, but I never expected Little Sakura’s team to draw ‘Encounter With the World,’ nor did I anticipate the three of them performing the essence of this dance so effectively.”

“This is a stage performance that honors my youth; I acknowledge their purity as idols.”

“Tang Liuli is truly surprising. Is this the genuine value of the only Grade A lead singer in Sea City’s ‘Dazzling Stage’? Her singing nearly moved me to tears.”

“Incredible, even starting from an extremely disadvantageous position, they managed to reverse the situation? I’m almost forgetting Honey Qing’s performance of ‘ACUTE’ now.”

“Tang Liuli’s vocal ability and tone are so distinctive, and I clearly sense her delivering a uniquely personal rendition of ‘Encounter With the World,’ filled with intense personal emotions that captivate even non-fans.”

“Say no more, I’m already crying. I wish I could confront Liuli’s guardian and question them intensely.”

Elsewhere, more viewers remain focused on the outcome of this PK match.

Is the winner of this competition the brand new version of ‘ACUTE’ created by Great Devil’s ‘Heart Flow,’ Chu Yuanqing’s charm, and Ji Shuzhu’s choreography combined?

Or is it the reinterpretation of ‘Encounter With the World’ led by Tang Liuli and Kirimi Miyuki’s dual ‘Heart Flow,’ with Chu Wang Shu serving as the stabilizing element?

Zhao Dapan remained silent, feeling outpaced by younger generations, giving him a sense of lagging behind. He responded confidently, demonstrating his perspective.

Luo Siling found it challenging to differentiate between the two performances emotionally, so she assigned a symbolic deduction of 1 point.

Chen Baijiu was deeply moved. If “Encounter With the World” had been presented in its complete version, it would certainly rank among the finest. However, the abbreviated version lacked the advantages of group choreography, leaving a sense of incompleteness.

The original dance was designed for a group, so with fewer performers, the visual impact diminishes. The pressure falls on the lead dancer and main singer, Kirimi Miyuki and Tang Liuli, both of whom delivered exceptional performances.

And thus…

“I’m only deducting 1.5 points from your dance.”

With those words, the historic record for the lowest deduction in stage effects was broken, as this team achieved a remarkably high score that exceeded expectations.

– 2.5 points deducted.

The four mentors quickly reached agreement on the stage effects score, under the watchful eyes of countless viewers in the live studio. The four scores were revealed sequentially, resulting in a total of 48 points with only 2 points deducted.

Kirimi Miyuki’s team’s final score was officially announced amidst thunderous cheers and excitement.

– 95 points.

This marks the highest score in PK competition history and sufficiently surpasses the excellent performance of “ACUTE.”

With this, the outcome on stage has been decided.
