Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

By 11 PM, Heloise’s support rate was at 86,580,000. At the same time, Li Nianwei’s support rate was at 84,200,000.

“I won. Hahaha! I won! Finally, I definitely won! 2,200,000 and one hour remaining, I’ll see what you can do this time, hahaha!” Heloise was so excited that her face turned red. She wanted to announce to the entire Shenluo City that she, without a doubt, won!

Inside Kristel’s apartment.

The four judges stared at the computer screen intensely. They shook their heads helplessly in unison.

“She lost.” Kristel looked very depressed. “Hai, this child Li Nianwei. Why did she not listen to our advice? If she moved a little, hai…”

Just as Kristel felt sorry for Li Nianwei, Franklin at the side suddenly yelled loudly, “This isn’t right, this isn’t right! The data is strange, there’s something strange going on!”

“What’s strange?” Kristel, Lake, and Brianna rushed forward at the same time and asked, “What’s going on?”

“Hurry, look at this.” Franklin pointed at the computer screen. “Originally, Heloise and Li Nianwei’s battles had resulted in support rates over 85,000,000. However, how could the other few contestants that we passed with all lights have such high stats?! Qi Shengjie’s support rate exceeded 60,000,000?!”

“Oh god.” Lake drew in a cold breath. “The support rate this time is way too strange, right?!”

Something happened. Something big happened in this year’s Sing! Milky Way!

…

Inside the Wales Family Manor, in a huge conference room that spanned over 80,000 square meters.

This was the number one conference room inside the Wales Family Manor, it was the biggest one as well. Today, it was used as the venue for the press conference—the birth of the singer with the highest support rate in the history of Sing! Milky Way. This type of huge news required a huge conference room like this.

At the moment, countless reporters were gathered here. They discussed quietly.

“This year’s Sing! Milky Way probably has the most intense competition ever, right? A support rate of over 85,000,000. That’s terrifying.”

“Right. By 12 AM, a conservative estimate would be 87,000,000. That’s terrifying. The previous record-holder for the support rate was only 65,000,000. This time it increased by over 20,000,000!”

“Yes. We did not wait in vain today.”

Just as the reporters discussed quietly, someone suddenly yelled loudly, “God, why are all the stats so high this time?!”

“What? It can’t be? Who else has high stats?! How high?”

All the reporters turned on their portable mini projection computers. Blue lights flashed across the entire huge conference room. Everyone was stunned as they saw the image appear on their screens.

Heloise’s support rate: 86,923,654; Li Nianwei’s support rate: 85,062,153!

Of course, this was not important. The important things were the other contestants.

Qi Shengjie’s support rate: 65,213,648.

Brittany’s support rate: 64,621,154.

Phillis’ support rate rate: 62,132,584.

Terrifying, it was terrifying!

“Everyone has such a high support rate this year?” The reporters stared at one another with their mouths agape! “This… this…”

By then, a smart reporter was the first to react. “Stop saying what, this is too strange this time. Everyone, try to contact your companies, see what the top has to say!”

…

On the other side.

Heloise changed into a beautiful nightgown. She was waiting for the time for the celebration to arrive. She planned for what to say and do when she met the reporters. She even planned out how to “nicely” mock Li Nianwei.

However, before she could leave, a bodyguard ran in, full of sweat. He yelled as soon as he entered the room, “Miss, something’s wrong! Something big happened!”

“What big thing can happen at this time.” Heloise smiled and said, “Don’t make such a fuss. It’s inappropriate! Li Nianwei is over two million votes behind me in support rate. You think she can still overtake me at this point?”

“It’s really something big!” The bodyguard hurriedly said, “Li Nianwei’s support rate did not make a comeback. The key thing is the others! There are seven contestants within this batch of singers who have support rates over 60,000,000! Now that the reporters heard about the news, they all contacted their headquarters and left!”

“What did you say?!” Heloise was stunned as she heard that. After the initial shock, she screamed hysterically. “How is that possible! How is that possible! The previous champion only had 65,000,000. This year there are seven?! How is that possible!”

“However, Miss, it’s true…” The bodyguard hurriedly explained.

Heloise ran in front of the computer. Once she saw the numbers, the color drained from her face and she weakly collapsed on the floor.

Heloise’s support rate: 87,125,463.

Li Nianwei’s support rate: 85,321,564.

Qi Shengjie’s support rate: 65,213,648.

Brittany’s support rate: 64,621,154.

Phillis’ support rate rate: 62,132,584.

“It’s over… it’s over!” Heloise sat on the floor. This time, it was really over.

If only Li Nianwei and her stats were high, it would have been fine. However, if everyone’s stats were high…

It was like the College Entrance Examination. If one or two people achieved perfect scores in one venue, it would be fine. However, if all the students in a single classroom received perfect scores, what would be the consequence?

Very simply, re-test! Furthermore, there would be stringent supervision!

“Dong—”

At the same time, the midnight bell signifying 12 AM rang.

***

It seemed things were serious this time.

Sing! Milky Way’s executives were extremely angry!

Shenluo City, in the Sing! Milky Way’s office building, inside the largest conference room.

“Rigged! It’s so obvious that this is rigged!” The Sing! Milky Way’s Shenluo City Branch Executive slammed the table and yelled, “This is challenging our bottom line! It’s an obvious declaration of war against us! This is not acceptable! This is definitely not acceptable! There are seven singers with support rate over 60,000,000. Who the heck are they trying to fool?!”

Everyone else stayed silent like cicadas in winter.

It was understandable why the executive was so angry.

Seven singers with support rate over 60,000,000. This definitely was challenging their bottom line.

After all, in the Sing! Milky Way’s Main City-level finals, anyone with support rate over 60,000,000 could be considered a genius. Two contestants with support rates over 85,000,000 was already fake enough. In the end, five more contestants popped up with support rates over 60,000,000!

Who the heck were they trying to fool!

What was the highest support rate in the other main cities? There were only a few dozen of them with over 60,000,000! Only a few dozen from over 3000 main cities. Now, seven popped up from Shenluo City alone, and two of them had over 85,000,000. Was this a game to them?

“Investigate! Investigate thoroughly and completely!” The executive slammed the table and roared. “Unless you delete all their fake and tampered data, all of you can go home and consider yourselves fired!”

He could not be blamed for his rage. The key thing was that Sing! Milky Way was a competition for the whole Milky Way, not just for Shenluo City.

Even if the Shenluo side could pretend to ignore the high support rate, there was no way that the other branches in the other main cities would tolerate that.

…

Hence, this year’s Sing! Milky Way, in an unprecedented manner, collaborated with the Galaxy Aristocrats and thoroughly investigated all the singers’ stats. Especially so for the seven singers with support rates over 60,000,000.

Then, when the final confirmed stats without the tampered and faked data were finally revealed on the Internet in front of everyone, the whole world went silent.

Li Nianwei’s support rate: 85,321,564.

Heloise’s support rate: 57,125,463.

Qi Shengjie’s support rate: 35,213,648.

Brittany’s support rate: 34,621,154.

Phillis’ support rate rate: 32,132,584…

…

St. Homburg Grand Hotel’s doors were soon flooded with reporters.

Sing! Milky Way’s Main City-level winner was born! Her support rate reached an unprecedented 85,000,000! The most crucial thing was that her support rate contained zero traces of tampered or fake data!

With her emotional and beautiful rendition of the song “Time Boils the Rain” that acted as a tearjerker and reminded everyone of their most tender memories, Li Nianwei’s name would leave behind a heavy mark on the music history of Shenluo City and even the entire Galaxy Alliance!

All the reporters went crazy.

Heloise, who was ranked second, also had a support rate of over 57,000,000. However, who could care about the life of a second-place who lost nearly 30,000,000 support rate? Of course, it was impossible for there to be absolutely no reporters at all. Shenluo City was huge. Some smaller companies would still go…

However, even though the reporters were fueled with a burning passion, they all received the same answer despite their efforts—the Young Master had just returned home, so Li Nianwei would not be accepting any interviews. Everything would have to wait until the celebrations were over.

Now the reporters were even more curious…

“Young Master? Is that the person Miss Li Nianwei said she was waiting for? God, she is the champion of Shenluo City. She is the huge new superstar with a support rate of over 85,000,000! What kind of person is worth it for her to act this way?”

“I don’t know. I really don’t know this time. Young Master, I don’t know what kind of name is that. It seems like he’s pretty terrifying. He can make Miss Li Nianwei so infatuated!”

“Hai, yes. Who knows how many people will have their hearts broken because of this? However, speaking of which, Miss Li Nianwei is really a goddess-tier person. I have never spotted a single flaw on her face. That’s unbelievable!”

“That’s true. Who knows how many years will have to pass again before someone else like that comes along. It’s not easy. However, the problem is that we can’t get an interview. What do we do now?”

“Wait! If nothing else can be done, we wait!”

Just like that, even though Hong Dali had not entered the pugilistic world, the pugilistic world was already full of stories about him.

Countless people were infinitely curious about the Young Master that their goddess Li Nianwei was waiting for. People did not know what kind of character could cause Li Nianwei to be so infatuated.

He must be someone perfect, right? The only thing was that nobody knew where he was…

Of course, if people found out that the mysterious Young Master was actually the biggest prodigal in the history of the universe, who could predict what they might think…

If only they knew that the Young Master was currently lying on the goddess Li Nianwei’s lap and eating Dali Beans…
