    The trainees were all surprised.


    Other songs that the fans had chosen were in line with the style of their idols, so logically, Lin Shanchu’s fans would have chosen ‘Valley of A Thousand Despairs’.


    Lin Shanchu’s fans are thergest in number and the most influential. It’s hard to believe they didn’t have this kind of tacit understanding, right?


    The other trainees were more curious than Lin Shanchu herself about what song her fans had chosen for her.


    Thement section was still sympathizing with Lin Shanchu.


    [I can’t take it anymore. I really want to tell them…]


    [I can’t wait to see their reaction once they find out which song Lin Shanchu’s fans had chosen.]


    [Lin Shanchu has no clue.]


    [The fans are ruthless.] [Can someone tell me which song is it??]


    [It’s ‘Ind in the Sky’!]


    [What the hell???]


    At the same time, the host finally revealed, “…The song the fans had chosen for her was ‘Ind in the Sky’!”


    As soon as his voice trailed off, the entire studio fell into a familiar silence.


    Soon after, the scene flooded with ovepping discussions.


    “Why would they choose this song?”


    “F * ck, no way!”


    “Her fans… really have unique ideas.”


    Yun Wu nced at Lin Shanchu, hesitant to speak the words at the tip of her tongue.


    Lin Shanchu asked with a faint voice, “Is it that ‘Ind in the Sky’ where Ran Zhimo sings while holding up three fingers?” Yun Wu nodded.


    Lin Shanchu froze upon Yun Wu’s confirmation.


    Yun Wu tried tofort her, ” Rap isn’t that difficult. It’s actually quite…” Looking at Lin Shanchu’s hopelessly nk face, Yun Wu trailed off.


    To a non-professional, rap was not something that could be mastered in a short period.


    Comment section:


    [I’m imagining Lin Shanchu in a dress while performing this. That would really be awkward…]


    [Help, I’m about to bury my head in the sand.]


    [I bet Lin Shanchu is really thanking you guys right now.]


    [Why are Lin Shanchu’s fans doing this?]


    [I’m one of the fans who voted for ‘Ind in the Sky.’ Our point is to have President Lin put on a show!]


    [That’s right. We did thorough research. Lin Shanchu doesn’t have any foundation in rap, hence why we chose this.]


    The other fans were all shocked.


    [I can tell from Lin Shanchu’s expression that you guys really… understood her so well.]


    They even went so far as to find Lin Shanchu’s weak spot.


    The recording continued.


    “Other than that, for this performance, there will be seven guests coborating with each team member toplete the subsequent adaptation and performance. ”


    The host continued, “This is the finalpetition before the finals. I wish you all great sess.”


    The audience in the live broadcast instantly erupted.


    Names of male idols and male celebrities flooded the chat.


    Completely in the dark about who the guests would be, someone started a


    conversauonreau:


    [Do you think they invited Tang Qidai to coborate with Lin Shanchu?]


    [Pfft! Tang Qidai?]


    [With the style of this production crew, it’s possible.] [I’m already getting excited. Hahahaha.]


    [Why not go one step further and invite Lu Shiyuan as well?]


    [If Lin Shanchu, Lu Shiyuan, and Tang Qidai were to quarrel on stage, wouldn’t the viewership ratings explode?]


    [Hahahaha! I’m dead, you guys really dare to dream. My God…]


    The news of Lin Shanchu’s fans voting for ‘Ind in the Sky’ was trending.


    Theizensmented in all sorts of ways: [Lin Shanchu? ‘Ind in the Sky’? Am I hallucinating?]


    [Isn’t ‘Ind in the Sky’ a rap song?]


    [Are Lin Shanchu’s fans serious?]


    [They said that the fans deliberately chose this song to get Lin Shanchu eliminated.]


    [I mean, a crazy idol will have crazy fans right?]


    [I was about to lose interest in ‘My Stage’, but once I heard Lin Shanchu was performing ‘Ind in the Sky’… hey!]


    [Ohh, I get why now! Lin Shanchu’s haters are her biggest fans..] In the previous episodes, everyone wanted to see Lin Shanchu fail.


    However, not only did she not fail, she thrived.


    When the show allowed the fans to vote for the songs, everyone thought the fans would choose the most suitable song to showcase Lin Shanchu’s abilities.


    Therefore, their expectations weren’t that high.


    No one expected Lin Shanchu’s fans toe up with such a move at thest minute.


    This time, she was really going to beughed at.


    Netizens from all walks of life became spirited and even spread the news:


    “Have you heard? Lin Shanchu is performing ‘Ind in the Sky’.”


    Netizens couldn’t resist leavingments on Lin Shanchu’s Weibo:


    [This is both tragic and funny.]


    [Even though I criticize you, it doesn’t stop me from feeling bad for you.]


    [Even though I nder you, I’ll be understanding this time and go easy on you.]


    [Have your fandom been infiltrated by the enemy?]


    [Your fans are even more malicious than the haters. You realize that, right?]


    Lin Shanchu couldn’t care less anymore.


    This time, she was truly unable to perform.


    No matter who joined her, she was bound to fail miserably.


    Her fans really understood her too much to the point they knew to target her weak spot.


    “Lin Shanchu, I’m here!” Ran Zhimo rushed towards her.


    Lin Shanchu pushed her away, “Think again.”


    “There’s no need for thinking, I’m here to join you!” Ran Zhimo stood behind her anyway.


    “I can’t rap,” Lin Shanchu said very straightforwardly.


    “I know, I’ll teach you,” Ran Zhimo had a look of sympathy on her.


    Lin Shanchu had no words.


    She thought that this time, just like before, none of the contestants would want to join her team.


    But the reality was just the opposite.


    Contestants who could rap werepeting to join Lin Shanchu’s team.


    Each time someone came, Lin Shanchu would ask, “Have you thought it through?”


    The contestants nodded firmly, some even eagerly, as if they were afraid there wouldn’t be any spots left if they waited too long.


    Fine then.


    She didn’t understand what these girls were thinking.


    She couldn’t see through her own fans’ thoughts either.


    Wen Tongtong walked up to her and stopped.


    With a look of defeat, Lin Shanchu asked, “You want to join me too?”


    Wen Tongtong shook her head. She raised a hand to pat her shoulder and said,


    “Good luck!”


    Since the beginning of the selection process, every contestant who passed by Lin Shanchu, regardless of whether or not they were familiar with her, would sincerely wish her ‘Good luck’.


    Lin Shanchu’s ears were getting numb from hearing it.


    Thement section took amusement to Lin Shanchu’s hopelessness.


    [Lin Shanchu really looks pitiful, hahaha. ]


    [Yup, that’s her. Miserable, but funny.]


    [This is ridiculous. Even the haters were starting to sympathize with her.]


    [Lin Shanchu’s fans, pleasee and take a good look at her. Don’t you feel guilty?]


    [The heartache is temporary. Once Lin Shanchu is eliminated, plenty of production crews were waiting to snatch her up!]


    [As a bystander, I think it’s a shame if Lin Shanchu isn’t able to deliver. But I still feel this is too… ridiculous.]


    In all of the selection processes in the past, Lin Shanchu’s team was always thest to get filled.


    But this time, her team was the first to reach maximum capacity..
