After the eighth round of the competition ended, Lin Yuan received a notification from Tong Shuwen. Since "Our Song" was going to have a surprise elimination round, eliminating some singers, not leaving much time for the continents to prepare for the stage, Lin Yuan could take the opportunity to rest for a month.
Tong Shuwen said with a smile, "Come back in a month as a guest performer. By then, Qin Continent might need you not only for the dance portion but also to take part in composing."
Next up are the elimination rounds.
No need for dance support.
Without the competition disrupting his usual updates, Lin Yuan could finally continue writing the Galaxy Empire base series novels without distraction.
Just shortly after Wan Yi’s robot dance video went viral globally, Lin Yuan officially finished writing the entire Galaxy Empire base series.
Mission accomplished!
Time to continue the Literary Duel!
In a great mood, before going to sleep, Lin Yuan logged into Xian Yu’s account to browse the blog, and the first thing he saw was Wan Yi’s robot dance imitation video trending, which made him even happier. He couldn’t help but give the video a like, pleased to see the new dance gaining promotion in different ways.
After liking the video,
Lin Yuan went to sleep.
Xian Yu’s action of liking Wan Yi’s robot dance video overnight caught the attention of netizens across the continents, sparking widespread laughter and discussion:
"Fish Papa liked Wan Yi’s video!"
"The imitator is recognized by the original creator!"
"Wan Yi is willing to lower himself to imitate the robot dance and even publicly released this tutorial video, showing he has seen through the rankings and knows he’s about to be squeezed out of the top ten by Fish Papa."
"Now it’s the end of April, the May rankings are about to update, Wan Yi, being in the tenth place, might only have less than twenty-four hours before a new owner arrives."
"The new owner is definitely Fish!"
"Fish Papa entering the top ten of the dance rankings is without a doubt, so tomorrow we might witness a historic moment where Xian Yu becomes the first person on Blue Star to enter the top ten of both Blue Star arts lists!"
"Top ten of both lists!"
"From music to dance, two completely different art fields, but equally important top lists, entering the top ten of both is something Blue Star absolutely can’t find a second one!
"It hasn’t happened yet, has it?"
"It’s already a done deal, the recent dances Fish Papa came up with are not simple at all, surely he’ll receive high praise from the Literature and Art Association!"
Xian Yu is already in the top ten of the Blue Star music rankings.
If Xian Yu also makes it to the top ten of the dance rankings, he would be the first on Blue Star to make it to the top ten of both lists!
After the Blue Star rankings are out.
Xian Yu is not the only one who can appear on multiple different rankings.
While cross-field success is rare, it doesn’t mean it’s nonexistent.
Blue Star’s eight continents are vast and rich, and there are indeed some truly talented individuals.
However, being able to appear on different rankings and achieve very high positions, even having the hope to achieve a top ten status in both lists, currently, there is only Xian Yu!
In the morning’s living room.
Mom made a bowl of noodles for Lin Yuan.
It contained two poached eggs.
Big Yaoyao glanced at her bowl, then at Lin Yuan’s bowl, and immediately pouted, "Why does Brother have one more egg than me? Brother, give me one."
Elder sister laughed:
"Mom is using two eggs to wish your brother luck in the top ten of both lists tonight. If you take it, who knows, your brother’s dual-list top ten might fly away."
Lin Yuan laughed and gave Big Yaoyao one.
Big Yaoyao hesitated but eventually returned the egg to Lin Yuan:
"I won’t take it today."
"These eggs are even soft-boiled."
Lin Yuan ate an egg and said it on purpose.
Big Yaoyao’s eyes went wide, she recently also really liked soft-boiled eggs, finding them tastier than fully cooked ones.
But her own egg didn’t seem to have that effect, mom made it fully cooked.
"Top ten of both lists is more important!"
Big Yaoyao seemed quite superstitious too, she actually refrained from taking from Lin Yuan.
The news was all over the place outside.
"Tonight at midnight, we might witness history!"
"The battle for the top ten in the dance rankings!"
"Xian Yu’s ascent a certainty?"
"Conquering the dance list, Xian Yu will reach dual-list top ten!"
"The first dual-list top ten celebrity on Blue Star might be born tonight at midnight!"
"Countdown to the rankings update started!"
Countless people were paying attention.
"Is Xian Yu really going for the top ten of both lists?"
"Music and dance, both entering the global top ten, what kind of concept is this?"
"An unprecedented genius."
"Many people are waiting to see tonight’s rankings update."
"This isn’t a media hype, it’s truly a historical moment, after all, it’s the first dual-list top ten big shot born on Blue Star."
"It gives us in the music world some pride too!"
"After all, Xian Yu has always been one of the representatives of our Blue Star music."
All recent discussions revolved around Xian Yu!
"Xian Yu’s dual-list top ten is solid, I heard Wan Yi was hanging out with friends today and jokingly said, in the future, just holding onto the 11th place would be wonderful."
"Ol’ Wan’s attitude is pretty good."
"Mainly because no one can stop Xian Yu from entering the top ten even if their attitude is bad."
"Recently, the circle has been overwhelmed by the Xian Yu trend."
"Almost every dancer is learning Xian Yu’s dances."
