Chapter 698 - Season One’s King

Chapter 698: Season One’s King

Zhang Tao was dumbfounded!

Binbin was stunned!

Huang Xing was stunned!

The little fresh meats stared at the live stream in astonishment!

Superman!

Superman!

Superman!

Fluorescent panels with the word ‘Superman’ appeared in a dense mass in the audience, dotting the background like stars!

Ye Lingchen saw it too.

He could not resist smiling under that mask.

He then sang with all his heart.

“I’m gonna make it——!

“Natural

“A beating heart of stone”

In the audience, the little fresh meat’s fans were all stunned silly when they saw the crowd holding up Superman’s name beside them!

Good God!

Why were there so many people?

HOW!

Was it…real?

“You gotta be so cold

“Yeah, you’re a na-tu-ral

“Na-tu-ral

“Yeah, you’re a na-tu-ral.”

Sensei Teng smiled.

So did Sensei Luo.

Jay Chou and Andy Lau looked at each other in shock and began laughing all of a sudden.

They really did not expect that scene!

No one had expected that to happen!

Many people were dumbfounded during the live stream and could only watch as the audience went ballistic.

Not only the scene, but the barrage in the live broadcast room also went wild, and Superman has already swept the screen!

Superman had that many fans! When did he get so many fans? His charisma surpassed even that of the little fresh meat!

Su Mo covered her mouth and smiled while tears flowed down her cheek.

“This guy is amazing! He’s just, amazingly ridiculously amazing. He’s practically building his popularity through sheer talent!”

At a certain media company.

Many reporters were dumbfounded.

“This…what is going on?”

“Who knows!?”

“Who said his popularity can’t be compared to little fresh meat?”

“This is just scary!”

…

Countless people in the music industry were talking about it.

“Who is this Superman?”

“Who is this great god in our industry? He’s just too powerful!”

“It’s amazing. This song is just amazing!”

…

Untamed!

Indeed, the song could be described as untamed!

The song nearly penetrated into the human soul and left everyone’s hair standing on end.

Conquering all hardships, fighting to the death, and succeeding at all costs—the world may be cruel, but ‘you’re a natural’!

It was electrifying!

Utterly electrifying!

In the live stream.

[F*ck! It sounds amazing! This song is so powerful!]

[I’m getting goosebumps. Ah, I’m getting an audiogasm!]

[Huhuu, I cried for the third time now. I feel like the whole world is mine when I listen to this song.]

[Too awesome. Superman is an otherworldly talent!]

[Damn, someone told me to support Zhang Tao, but Superman’s power has converted me into his fan.]

[Same here, upstairs.]

[It’s a comeback! Superman will be the champion!]

…

The live stream continues.

Zhang Tao took the stage.

His heart skipped a beat the moment stepped up, as he suddenly realized that everything had changed. The audience applauded and cheered him, but the atmosphere was a little different from before and lacked the wild intensity. In fact, he actually felt that the audience did not applaud him as they did for Superman!

What did that mean?

Zhang Tao did not dare to think much about it.

Could it have been a coincidence that the audience happened to be Superman’s fans, while his own did not attend?

Zhang Tao comforted himself.

It was not yet time for him to relax. He had to give it his all!

The music had already begun playing.

Zhang Tao took a deep breath. Giving his best was the only thing he could do in that situation!

The song he was about to sing was his greatest one yet. It was capable of stirring emotion and could easily win over the fans’ support.

His voice appeared gradually and he sang as perfectly as could be.

Thunderous applause sounded in his ears and Zhang Tao could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He smiled, bowed slightly, then walked off the stage.

…

Offstage.

Everyone could feel the tense atmosphere as they exchanged glances and waited for the result.

[F*CK, it seems that Superman has put so much pressure on Zhang Tao that his style had changed completely.]

[This is the first time I’ve seen a little fresh meat look so serious.]

[Hahaha, all I can say is, Superman is too strong.]

[Taotao looks serious! We must support our Taotao.]

Over at the guest table of King of Masked Singers, the coaches and the guests inhaled sharply.

“Who do you think sings better?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? It has to be Superman! There’s no point in making a comparison at all.”

“Who do you think will win, then?”

“Hard to say. That little fresh meat has too many fans, but Superman has also gained a lot of support by virtue of his power alone.”

“The results will be out soon. Let’s wait and see.”

“Actually… I have a faint guess on who Superman might be, but I can’t say for sure yet.”

“Oh?”

“We couldn’t find anyone like him in the entire music industry. Take a look at the one on the coach’s seat.”

Looking over at the direction that he pointed at, Chen Xiaoyan was seen sitting there clenching her rosy fists. Her beautiful eyes stared at the stage and she looked extremely nervous, almost as though she was lost.

…

Once the performance was over, it was time for the voting.

Netizens and fans on both sides of the divide were shoring up support!

[Hurry up and vote for Taotao! Quick!]

[Requesting assistance! Rise up, fan group!]

[Superman sang incredibly well, so everyone, vote for him!]

[Don’t vote for those little fresh meat if you’re a man!]

[F*CK OFF, upstairs!]

The fans caused a ruckus online.

…

One minute.

Two minutes.

Three minutes.

Voting closed!

The audience was feeling tense!

The people sitting in front of the live stream held their breaths!

Those from the entertainment industry watched eagerly!

King of Masked Singers…who would it be?

Zhang Tao was calm on the surface, but his heart was pounding madly. He reminisced about his performance on stage and found no faults with it. He could even say that his singing exceeded expectations and there was no reason to lose. He wanted to win! He had to win!

The emcee Luo Sisi took the stage. “Voting is now closed and the final result has been released. In a moment, I’ll announce the name of the singer who won the first season of King of Masked Singers. It’s—”

One second.

Two seconds.

Luo Sisi then yelled, “Superman!”

…

Over at the guest seats.

Sensei Teng, Sensei Luo and Ms. Feather stood up at the same time.

“He won!”

“The first season’s champion!”

“Not bad of him to receive recognition from the music industry’s members!”

Backstage.

Su Mo screamed hysterically. “Ah! Ah! Ah! He actually won! He’s the champion! I actually welcomed a champion! This is the best moment in my entire life!”

Entertainment news media.

“This… how is this even possible?”

“Superman is the champion? It’s incredible!”

“This guy is just too powerful!”

“Zhang Tao actually lost?”

Livestream.

[The champion is Superman?!]

[This is too f*cking unexpected. I never expected this to happen. Never at all!]

[F*CK, was three little fresh meat crushed one by one by this ruthless man?]

[Yes, this is incredible! It’s as if he brushed away all those difficulties in his quest for success.]

[It’s amazing. But Superman really does sing well.]

[I cried all three times when he sang. It’s lucky that he’s become the champion.]

[Hurry up and release the album. I’ll play these three songs on repeat!]

[Hahahaha, I support Superman! Now you know who Superman is!]

He reached the and became King of Masked Singers with Natural!

His song was directed to everyone. It was a song of determination, of resolution, and every note was filled with infinite power. Everyone’s ears were still echoing with the roar of that song and they were all fired up!

Ye Lingchen shone brightly that day. The song, music, and competition was over, but everyone still wanted more, unable to calm down.

“Superman!”

“Superman!”

“Superman!”

Someone started chanting, and the rest of the audience immediately joined in with wild abandon…
