"When I become the second owner of the corpse, I can use the

skills he had during his lifetime. Except for soul skills, other skills
will not be discounted." Xia Bai said.

He looks dull, but his mind actually likes to move, shielding

himself from the outside world and focusing on areas of
interest. He had thought about why soul skills were not
guaranteed to be fully usable.

"I feel that my physical skills can indeed be fully used." He has
never really used the earthworm arm, but he has a feeling that he
can break through the roof of the hospital if he wants to.

"As for soul skills, they may be incomplete, have reduced

power, or cannot be used. Soul skills should be related to the
human soul. People have three souls and seven souls. After death,
the three souls return to heaven, and there is only the soul in the
body. But in fact, many When people talk about soul, they mean
soul. There is soul and soul. Maybe this is how the game system
determines that the soul of soul skills includes soul. After death,
the body only has the incomplete soul, so the soul skill is also
incomplete. I can't use it completely. ."

"..."

Erwa was dumbfounded.

Yang Mei didn't know how to feel.

It was the first time that Hua Haoming saw someone analyzing
their own skills in this way. Generally, if a player has a skill, he
would be grateful and use it. Who would think about why the
game system only provides some skills, and why the skills cannot
be extended.

Ling Changye... felt Xia Bai's sincerity and attitude.

Xia Bai looked at Ling Changye with a pair of round almond

eyes.

Ling Changye: "Each member of the attack team has a special

establishment and must be approved by the director of the
Tourism Administration. I cannot have the final say alone. I will
report your situation and you will be notified."
 Xia Bai nodded immediately, "Hey!"

He wanted to ask them again if they had seen his grandfather's

skills. Ling Changye is the captain of the attack team, Yang Mei is
the player with the highest points, and Erwa is the player who has
played the most games. They are probably the group of players
who are most likely to have met Grandpa.

When he was about to ask, Guo Yang came in.

Guo Yang was very excited to meet so many idols. He didn't

know where to get a medical record and asked them to sign it.

"..."

After Guo Yang came in, other people came in one after
another. Xia Bai gave up when he saw this. Now they are
acquaintances who can talk to each other. There will be
opportunities to ask in the future, so there is no rush.

He saw that Lao Ma had already limped away with someone, so

he left the ward to chase him.

Xia Bai: "Old Ma, what are your plans for the future?"

Xia Bai is the person Ma Tongfeng is most grateful to in the

world. He did not hide anything from Xia Bai and said: "They
found me a job and asked me if I would like to I don't want to do
it. That job is simply to save people who want to commit suicide."

He said: "I'm not sure if I can do it. I want to follow it and see.
They said that if I finally choose to stay in the job, they will Help
me heal my leg."

"It's very good." Xia Bai said: "Old Ma, congratulations to you."

Old Ma was still not in high spirits, and his eyes were red on
his vicissitudes of life, full of signs of being destroyed by time
and society. He was tired, but he showed He Jiaxiu's first smile
after his death, even if it was small, "Thank you, Xia Bai. You said
my life is not cheap. If I can still save other people's lives, I will
definitely work hard to let It has some value."
 Lao Ma followed the staff.

The hospital corridor is used to witnessing the joys and

sorrows of life and death, but this time period was even more
tragic and exciting. Desperate cries and crazy

laughter came from nowhere, and the dim light fell on his
limping and thin background. Tiny glimmers of light on dry hair.

Outside the window, the urgent sound of ambulances could be

heard one after another. Maybe it won't be long before their
world can no longer maintain even the superficial peace and is
about to collapse.

Seeing the old horse walking hard with a limp, Xia Bai seemed
to see the backs of many people.

A peaceful life is born in the twilight, and a broken world looks

for the glimmer of light.

Xia Bai pursed his lips and walked towards his and Zhong
Zicang's room. He also had his work tomorrow.

After Xia Bai went downstairs, Hua Haoming, who was standing
not far behind him, asked Ling Changye: "Why did you lie to him?
You can obviously make the decision alone. The director is just
going through the motions."

He didn't understand. "You don't have a partner yet, Xia Bai is

the most suitable partner for you. When he grows up a little more,
and has more bodies and skills, how can you two combine
endlessly? Let alone the attack team, he can even enter
Wangchuan."

Most of the members of their attack team will have a

partner. There are games appearing everywhere, and there are
many games that need to be overcome. It is impossible for all
members of the attack team to go to the same game, and it is very
dangerous to go alone, so there will be a group of partners to go
to the game together. Over time, it will become a matter of life
and death. Dependent partners.

As the captain, Ling Changye has never had a partner.

 His skills are special, he becomes stronger when he is strong,
but is very limited when he is weak.

Erwa is powerful, but he doesn't use any skills. He may not use
them once every ten times he enters the game.

Yang Mei's skills are very useful, but Ling Changye thinks
others are stupid and doesn't like to use his skills.

In the past two years, he has always played games with

teammates or alone. He has never had a partner. This may be
related to his free spirit and the fact that he has never met the
right person.

Hua Haoming now feels that the right person has appeared.

Ling Changye pulled the windbreaker off his shoulders and

said: "I don't need a partner, but I will seriously consider his
attack on the strong team. He has just acquired skills and has not
yet developed them. If he is concerned about attacking the strong
team so early, it may not necessarily be the case. Good thing."

After saying that, he turned back and accurately caught the two
eavesdroppers.

Erwa stood behind the door holding his precious popcorn, with
Yang eyebrows peeping higher up.

Yang Mei said: "Captain, let Xia Bai come. I feel that he wants
to sleep with you." "

..."

Yang Mei said seriously, "I have felt it in the past few days. Xia
Bai doesn't want to sleep with me, but wants to sleep with you." .
When you were retelling the game to the institute, I looked in
from outside the door. Xia Bai's eyes fell on you several times. He
was greedy for your body."

Hua Haoming: "..."

He and Xia Bai were in a There is a copy of alienation, and he

has a lot of say. He felt that he had to change the word "body" to
"corpse".
 Excessive use of soul skills will indeed affect the soul. He
sincerely advised Yang Mei, "Don't use the lover card when you
enter the game recently."

Ling Changye's long eyelashes were slightly lowered, with a

thoughtful look on his face.

No, he wouldn't really believe it, would he? Hua Haoming

asked: "Captain, what are you thinking about?"

Ling Changye: "I was thinking, he can't be my partner, it's too

dangerous."

Hua Haoming felt it made sense, there is a partner who can

covet his body at any time It is indeed dangerous. If Xia Bai
encounters a copy of Heping Medical College again, what if Xia
Bai can't hold back and turns his body into a corpse

It was 11:35 at night.

When Xia Bai returned (), Zhong Zicang thought he had gone
out for a walk.

In the past few days?()_[((), their volunteers immediately

returned to this safe place after completing their work and did
not go out. Xia Bai was contrary to them. He would go out for a
walk whenever he had free time.

Zhong Zicang even tried to persuade him earnestly at the

beginning. Later, when he saw that he was always trying to sneak
out, he gave up.

When he saw him come back, he simply said as usual, "Junior

Xia Bai is back?"

Xia Bai said "hmm" without mentioning it. Game, "Senior, I'm
going to take a shower first."

Zhong Zicang: "You go, use the bathroom as you like, I've
already finished it."
 Xia Bai went to the bathroom with a change of clothes. His
clothes got wet countless times in the game. A little
uncomfortable. In fact, he was a little envious of Ling Changye's
change of clothes.

After lying on the bed wearing pajamas that smelled of washing

powder and sunshine, Xia Bai first fed sister Xuemu, and then
went to the player communication center for a walk.

As usual, more than half of the posts on the home page of the
Player Communication Center are related to the game maps
unlocked that day. The

game app will announce it, and the Game Management Bureau
will not hide it from the players. Most of the time, the
communication center will get relevant information quickly.

Today, except for the Harmony Cinema There is also a popular

post about Gu Quankun.

Gu Quankun is a player on the ranking list. His best result in

history is ranked 29th, often appearing between 35 and 50.
Yesterday he was ranked 42nd on the ranking list. position
suddenly disappeared today.

There are two possibilities for not being in the standings. One
is that the ranking has dropped to outside 50, and the other is
that it is dead.

Points are accumulated over time. Generally speaking,

promotion and decline can occur within one or two days. The
amplitude will not be very large, so among the many posts of
Harmony Cinema, one appeared discussing Gu Quankun.

"Gu Quankun disappeared from the rankings, isn't he dead?"

Host: rt, Gu Quankun and I Quan Kun has played the game
together once. I feel that he is experienced in the game and cruel.
He does not regard the life of novice players as his life, but only
serves as a tool to clear the level. How could such a person die?

2L: No, that’s a ranking. The boss on the list, is it just that his
ranking has dropped?
 3L: Just drop it, it means he is dead. Use your brain, if it has
dropped, the points below him must have increased at the same
time, and there is only one today The game has been cleared.
Could it be that they all went to that game?

4L: It’s unlikely that they all went to that game. But Gu
Quankun went to that game, so he was more likely to die in it.

5L: It’s not surprising that Gu Quankun died. That's it. Getting
on the list is all about tricking people and clearing questions. His
earthworm arm is very strong, but it's nothing among the real big
guys.

6L: I haven't fought him upstairs, right? ?His earthworm arms

can burrow in the ground to escape, can fly long to attack, are
strong and sharp, can attack and defend, you think that's it? Let
me tell you, there is no simple one on the list.

Xia Bai was stunned when he saw this. Stopped. Unexpectedly,

he discovered more uses for earthworm arms here.

Burrowing in the ground.

It is very reasonable for earthworms to burrow in the ground.

In this way, when the ghost school beauty was chasing Gu

Quankun, his first choice might actually be to burrow in the
ground. He hid in a hole in the ground, but he pulled him to block
the ghost school belle. He himself

had a big responsibility for being killed by the ghost school

belle.

Xia Bai watched the discussion about the Harmony Cinema for a
while, most of which focused on Erwa, Ling Changye and Gu
Quankun and others all went to the Harmony Cinema to watch a
movie. They had not seen a movie for a long time. Finally, a safe
cinema appeared, so of course they had to go.

Xia Bai exited and took a look at the ticket sales of Harmony
Cinema.

Harmony Cinema was not damaged by the game and could

continue to operate normally the next day. Not to mention the
next day, the theater was fully sold out in the past week.

"..."

It seems that he is really depressed. Of course, there should be

people watching the excitement. Recently, many players have
gathered in Quanguang City.

Will Sister You Yue get a salary increase?

After reading it, Xia Bai returned to the personal page of the
game app and opened the dead body book.

Gu Quankun is lying on the first page. Like sister Xuemu, he

can also move in the dead body book. Xia Bai actually wanted to
summon him and try to see if he was missing his soul as he
guessed-->>

AD4
The body says that there may still be one or two souls left, but
the three souls are gone.

He reached out and poked Gu Quankun, and Gu Quankun

immediately hugged his finger.

Xia Bai: "?"

He found a wet tissue to wipe his hands.

Sure enough, his soul was missing and he became a fool.

There was a soft snoring next to him, and Zhong Zicang fell
asleep.

It was past twelve o'clock, and Xia Bai was about to go to bed.
When he was about to put down his phone, something suddenly
occurred to him, so he picked it up again and searched for a name
on the Internet, Huang Weiping.

When the Cast Away movie first started, the names of the
director and producer appeared. Huang Weiping is the director of
"Desert Island Escape".
 Xia Bai stared at the webpage for a long time. In reality, there
really was an unknown young director named Huang Weiping.

He directed two commercials, a micro-movie and a major online

movie. They were all very ordinary works that received few
criticisms.

What made Xia Bai even more chilled was that he saw the
director saying that he would make a movie that would shock the
film industry. Because he was too confused, few people paid
attention to him. Even if the people who paid attention to him saw
it, they thought he was talking big words and bragging, and his
words did not attract any attention at all.

Not only did he find a medical student Chu Xuelin in reality, he

also found a down-and-out director Huang Weiping. Is this all a
coincidence?

Xia Bai couldn't sleep.

He thought for a while and sent a message to Hua Haoming,

[Are you asleep? ]

Hua Haoming: [Not yet, is there anything wrong? ]

Xia Bai: [I found Chu Xuelin, a female student who graduated

from Heping Medical College, and also found Huang Weiping, a
director with the same name and identity as in the copy of
Harmony Cinema. ]

After a while, the other side replied: [You only found out after
entering two games? ]

Xia Bai: [What do you mean? ]

Hua Haoming: [Yes, the stories in some game maps are indeed
related to reality. Some things that are hidden in reality and
unknown to the public due to various reasons will be exaggerated
in the game. For example, Chu Xuelin did die. She may have died
from medical corruption, but she probably did not have a sister in
her mouth. Her unknown death was adapted into a game story by
the game. ]

Even though she had guessed a little, Xia Bai still felt a lot of
emotions after seeing Hua Haoming's reply.

Hua Haoming: [I just watched the copy of the Harmony Cinema

you entered. The director may indeed want to make a movie that
is very real in some aspects,

but it is not as exaggerated as in the game. If so many people

died on an island, how could it happen? No news at all? There is
also no movie news coming out. They are just inspiration for the
game. ]

Xia Bai: [Is Huang Weiping still alive? ]

Hua Haoming: [Dead. Chu Xuelin also died. Games love to find
inspiration from dead people. ]

If the background story of the game dungeon map originates

from reality, from unknown stories in reality, then it is indeed
very appropriate for the players to name the game Seeking Truth.

Hua Haoming: [Don’t tell anyone about this. This is also the
reason why teams such as the Holy Journey Guild can develop. In
addition to the game they say helps humans evolve, this is also
promoted by them as "doing justice for heaven." ]

Xia Bai: [Okay. ]

Before ending the chat, Hua Haoming pushed him a person's

business card.

Hua Haoming only said: [Captain’s. ]

Xia Bai thought about it and applied to be added as a friend.

Ten minutes later, my friend passed.

Ling Changye sent a [Hello] Erwa emoticon, and Xia Bai

responded with a [Hello] silly dog emoticon, and then they
stopped talking.

Ling Changye's online name is [Don't come to me if you have

nothing to do], and his avatar is a black coffin that makes people
lose the desire to chat.

When Xia Bai renamed him, he thought about it. First, he

thought of him lying on the altar looking like he was about to die
in the game. Then he thought of how he had just been sewn up by
himself. Finally, he thought of the way he had used it in the game.
Skills, a [cc] was noted.

Xia Bai: [I thought your skill was regeneration, limb

combination or something like that. ]

cc: [If you want to say that, I do. Those are my physical skills.

Xia Bai was stunned for a moment. Indeed, neither the game
nor the players said that a person can only have one skill . There
should be only one soul skill, but having soul skills does not mean
that you cannot have physical skills and prop skills, especially for
people who have played many games and can get game rewards in
most cases.

Maybe it was the darkness that was causing trouble. Seeing

Ling Changye answered this question, Xia Bai asked another
question that he really wanted to know at this time.

Xia Bai: [Why were you pulled into the movie? ]

After asking, he felt a little regretful. Ling Changye didn't

answer when asked by the institute before. At that time, he said
that it involved personal privacy. It was indeed a very private
matter. They all knew that it was related to personal experience
and desires in the heart, and it was very private. thing.

cc: [Should be similar to you. ]

Xia Bai was stunned for a moment, then blankly pressed the
phone and stuffed it under the pillow.
 There was no "tying" there anymore. Ling Changye put his
phone on the table and entered the bathroom. When he came out
of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe, a message occupied the
center of the screen.

Dirty Bag: [Oh. ]

Ling Changye sat on the sofa, holding the phone between his
long and strong index and middle fingers and turning it around,
looking out the window.

In Quanguang City, which has been riddled with holes by the

game, there are not many lights at night, and there is a darkness
that cannot be seen in the distance. The lighted rooms in high-
rise buildings are as rare as the stars in the night sky of big
cities.

The brightest thing is this orthopedic hospital. I don’t know

where another game has been cleared. The ambulance is shouting
and rushing this way. The rush brings a burst of panic and sad
cries. There is a busy group below, shouting. , crying, comforting
sounds...all become black and white without

emotion .

Turning around and around, the mobile phone that was twirling
between several fingers stopped.

Ling Changye sent a message to Zangzhangbao: [If you can

accept playing the game once a week and traveling around
frequently, I will update your identity information with the Game
Management Bureau tomorrow. Xia

Bai appeared at the door of the VIP ward where Ling Changye
stayed at dawn the next day.

He didn't see the message on his phone when he fell asleep

last night. When he opened his eyes this morning and saw it, he
immediately sat up from the bed. He only brushed his teeth,
splashed some water on his face and rushed over.
 As soon as he appeared at the door, the door opened.

Ling Changye looked like he had just woken up. He was wearing
pajamas, and his phoenix eyes drooped sleepily. He only opened
one to face the rising sun and looked at Xia Bai, "Come in. ()"

Xia Bai went in obediently.

The VIP ward was of course a single room or a suite. Xia Bai sat
on the sofa and waited for Ling Changye to wash up and change
clothes.

This wait is an hour.

Xia Bai: ...hellip;...□()_[(()"

It was the first time he knew that it took so long to wash and
change clothes. When Ling Changye came out, he felt that it
should have been such a long wait.

Ling Changye looked brand new again , wearing a clean and

refreshing loose white shirt and simple black pants. Every hair
exuded a relaxed and free atmosphere, and it felt like it had been
carefully taken care of.

He brought two cups of black tea over and handed one of them
to Xia Bai At that time, Xia Bai saw that he was wearing an
unknown blue gemstone on his middle finger without any inlay
and only a simple ancient silver ring. The gemstone was as low-
key and deep as the clear sea water. At the same time,

Xia Bai smelled a hint of Ruo There is the aroma of Ruowu. He

has grown up in the mountains and fields since he was a child. He
has smelled all kinds of grass and trees, but he can't tell which
kind of nature this scent belongs to. It is like an undiscovered
mysterious area where seawater and trees coexist.

Xia Bai When looking at the ring, Ling Changye had already
turned on his phone, and Yang Mei and Hua Haoming, who had
received the news, also came.
 Xia Bai didn't know which ward Ling Changye lived in, so he
asked Hua Haoming. Hua Haoming learned that Xia Bai He was
about to join the attack team, so he naturally wanted to come and
take a look. On the way here, he was stuck by the clingy Yang Mei.

They came together to witness and welcome Xia Bai to join

their team.

Ling Changye asked Xia Bai: "Have you thought about it?

" Bai nodded seriously, "Think about it, I want to play more
games, once a week is no problem."

Ling Changye pushed the phone to him and asked him to fill in
his information.

In the real world, some confidential web pages cannot be

opened on the phone. Yes, even if it can be opened, it cannot be
operated. You have to open it on an office computer in a specific
location.

It will be different after the game comes, because every player

has a game app on their mobile phone. This app is higher than
real-life technology and pretends to be relevant to the player. For
information about life and death, the mobile phone has become
the safest and highest authority office tool.

The information entry point for the members of the attack team
of the Action Department of the Game Management Bureau is on
Ling Changye's mobile phone.

At this time, Xia Bai is "adding new members" Enter his

detailed information in one column.

As he entered it, the three people were telling him about the
information about the attack team and the Game Management
Bureau.

Ling Changye: "The attack team belongs to the Operations

Department of the Game Management Bureau, and there are 49
members including you. Seven of them belong to the Wangchuan
Group."

The Game Management Bureau is an official organization with

four departments, two colleges and one station, namely the
Information Department, Logistics Department, External Relations
Department, Action Department, Research Institute

(), Education Institute and Rescue Station.

The Information Department is responsible for collecting and

entering all player information, contacting players, publishing
news, personnel management, etc. The

Logistics Department is responsible for a lot of things. It is

indeed the largest department with the largest number of teams
and personnel in the Game Management Bureau.

The rescue station is due to the pressure of the Logistics

Department It is a part that is separated from the game because it
is too big. It is not responsible for player rescue inside the game,
but for the society. It is a mobile station for emergency rescue.
Like this time, the game frequently comes to Quanguang City and
sends rescue applications to the rescue station. The entire rescue
station They will be stationed here.

The External Liaison Department, as the name suggests, is to

contact departments from all walks of life outside the Game
Bureau. For example, when Lao Yang needs to go to the police
station to investigate a person, he needs to go through the
External Liaison Department. When a large-scale game map occurs
in the local area, the External Liaison Department We will contact
the relevant local departments for cooperation and assistance.

The operations department naturally focuses on actions, mainly

focusing on breaking and cleaning the game, and the core is the
attack team. In addition, if there are players who use their skills
to organize themselves to harm society, it will also require
someone from the Operations Department to deal with it, and they
often deal with groups such as the Holy Tour Guild. In short, he is
the representative of the combat effectiveness of the Game
Management Bureau.

Of course, the research institute is engaged in research, that is,

studying games, the advent of games, game clearance strategies,
game expulsions, etc.

The Education Institute sounds very gentle. It is a place where

players are managed and educated, but those who leave the circle
are players' prisons.

Some of these things Xia Bai had known for a long time, and
some things he only knew after they told him.

For example, he knew about the attack team and thought that
there were only about ten people in the team. After all, Hua
Haoming said "our team", he didn't expect there to be so many
people. Come to think of it, there are so many games that need to
be solved, how can a dozen or so people be busy?

He didn't know that there was also a Wangchuan group in the

attack team, which sounded more like a death squad. Ling
Changye, Yang Mei and Hua Haoming were all inside.

After Xia Bai filled out the information, Ling Changye read it
over and submitted it for him.

Xia Bai officially became the 49th member of the attack team of
the Operations Department of the Game Management Bureau. !
 Chapter 41

Ling Changye: "The first purpose of our attack team is to clear

t h e g a m e . T h i s i s o u r t o p p r i o r i t y, e v e r y t h i n g e l s e m u s t c o m e

Xia Bai heard Hua Haoming mention it in the copy of Heping

M e d i c a l C o l l e g e . A c c o r d i n g t o H u a H a o m i n g I t ’s h u m a n l i f e t h a t
comes first.

It can be understood that each depar tment of the Game

Management Bureau has different responsibilities. There is a
rescue team to rescue people. The attack team was originally
established to clear the game, and everything serves to clear the
game.

H o w e v e r, i n p r a c t i c e i n t h e g a m e , i t i s u n a v o i d a b l e t o b e c o l d -
blooded and unkind, which may be one of the reasons why the
offensive team has mixed reputations outside.

Ling Changye specifically told him again, maybe because he

saw some of his behavior in the game, which was inconsistent with
the purpose of the attack team.

Xia Bai said with a blank face, "Oh."

It would be more convenient for him to sign a corpse contract

if he did more good deeds to save people and leave a good
i m p r e s s i o n o n o t h e r s . I n t h e f u t u r e , h e w i l l u s e m o r e n e a r- d e a t h

Ling Changye glanced at him and pulled him into a group

called [Bows and Arrows].

Ya n g M e i h a d b e e n h o l d i n g h e r c e l l p h o n e , a s i f s h e w a s
waiting for this moment. As soon as Xia Bai entered the group, he
sent a welcome emoticon of his own.
 Then the group was flooded with emoticons, and at first glance,
a l m o s t a l l o f t h e m w e r e E r b a ' s o r Ya n g M e i ' s e m o t i c o n s .

After thinking about it, Xia Bai used his own.

Lin Xiang took several photos of him in a daze and sent them
to him.

Xia Bai: [Thank you.jpg]

Next is a series of [stolen] emoticons.

"..."

In addition to this group, Xia Bai also added two people who
applied to be his friends.

The Information Depar tment was ver y fast. Within ten minutes
of Xia Bai becoming a member of the attack team, they arranged
for him to have a life assistant and a game work assistant.
 They took the initiative to add Xia Bai and star ted a group with
Xia Bai. The group name was [Xia Bai].

have any needs, you can tell me and I will arrange it for you. ]

Xia Bai was confused. He can still understand a work assistant,

why is there a life assistant?

Xia Bai asked the three of them: "The attack team also has a
life service team?"

Ya n g M e i : " Ye s , t h e r e i s a s e r v i c e t e a m o f f i f t y p e o p l e , a n d t h e i r

they called the singer She sang it to me at the hotel

Xia Bai: "..."

Xia Bai wanted to know what his life assistant could do.

Xia Bai was silent.

He said: "Xia Bai, after the advent of the game, the social

Xia Bai could understand after thinking about it that the game
had changed a lot. Skilled players had become a new group of
strong players. They could also join the attack team and were
ready to become mar tyrs at any time. They deser ved the best
treatment.

H o w e v e r, t h i s c h a n g e w a s t o o f a s t f o r h i m . B e f o r e , h e w a s s t i l l
someone who saved up his tuition fees and was not even willing to
buy supplies. Even with the skills, he thought he would be a little
corpse picker in the game.

Before he joined the attack team, he never thought that he

would receive such good treatment. He just wanted to use his
identity as a member of the attack team to find the God of Joy
and his grandfather's pa st.

L i n g C h a n g y e : " G i v e y o u a n a d a p t a t i o n p e r i o d . Yo u a r e n o t
suitable for frequent games with other members, nor for being
noticed. I will tell them not to reveal the identity of your attack
team members yet."

Xia Bai nodded, "I I also want to finish my volunteer work

first."
 Ling Changye agreed, "But you can do some team work ."

Hua Haoming heard what he said and suddenly looked at Xia

B a i w i t h s y m p a t h y.

Xia Bai was curious: "What kind of job?"

L i n g C h a n g y e : " Ta k e c a r e o f a b a b y. "

Xia Bai: "..."

How can I keep a low profile with this person?

of clothes do you like me to wear? JK uniform, Lolita, or more
mature?"

Xia Bai: "..."

He looked helplessly at the other two people in the room.

Ling Changye picked up the teacup and drank the tea with his
eyes down. This tea was probably the best black tea he had ever
tasted. He drank it with great concentration.

Hua Haoming turned to look at the bright morning sun outside

t h e w i n d o w, " T h e w e a t h e r i s s o n i c e t o d a y, a n d t h e s a l a r y o f t h e
attack team is quite high."

Xia Bai: "..."

In another VIP ward separated by a wall, Er wa was holding Bao

Bao in his arms. The popcorn bucket is attached to the wall to
listen to.

His physical skills are related to the force of nature. Even if the
soundproofing of the ward is good, he can keenly pick up some
sounds. He knew that Xia Bai was going to join the attack team,
and when he heard that Xia Bai was going to take care of the
b a b y, h e h u r r i e d l y c h a n g e d i n t o c u t e w a r m y e l l o w c l o t h e s a n d

seemed to be no sound.

He ran to the door in panic and excitement, looked out through

The light in Er w a's eyes extinguished little by little and turned

into little pearls.

X i a B a i a n d h i s t e a m w i l l b e o n d u t y f r o m 1 0 a m t o 6 p m t o d a y.

The hospital has a restaurant that is open to all residents of

the hospital free of charge. Song Lu said that she would transfer
Xia Bai to a VIP ward to live in, and she could also eat better in
the ward. Xia Bai refused. Since he had to complete his volunteer
work first, he would not take over the task of the attack team, but
would eat and live with the volunteers first.

Ya n g M e i f o l l o w e d X i a B a i t o t h e r e s t a u r a n t t o e a t .

He was wearing a pure white shir t with long sleeves, a pink and
purple plaid bow tie at the collar of the shir t, and a pink and
purple plaid pleated miniskir t, revealing a pair of long white and
straight legs. He was wearing piles of socks and a pair of black
buckled leather shoes. Xia Bai's arms attracted countless gazes
a l o n g t h e w a y.

When someone looked at him for a long time, he would wave

h i s h a n d t o g r e e t t h e m a n d s a y s o f t l y, " H e l l o . "

Three people bumped into a pillar on the road.

Finally arriving at the restaurant, Zhong Zicang, who was about

to greet him, was stunned.

and said, "Please take a seat."

A f ter s i t t i n g d o w n , h e a s ked , " Wai t , w i l l you t a ke c a re of m e i n

Hua Haoming had already thought of what to say for them. Xia

He pressed Xia Bai's arm to pick up vegetables for him. I

blankly pushed away the hand that wanted to hold my arm. I just
like to eat white rice. ?()?[()"

" Poof ! " " Z h o n g Z i c a n g s pa t o u t a m o u t h f u l of c h i c ken s o u p .

Xia Bai's expression became more and more dull.

It was very difficult to eat a meal.

 Xia Bai had never been so eager to work.

During this period, the entertainment industry in Quanguang

City was severely impacted, and the amusement parks were the
wor s t among them. There were only a few Parents bring their
children to the amusement park , and the entire amusement park is

When they took photos and talked about clothing and skin

really stupid and had no social experience.

He sat down next to Xia Bai and asked Xia Bai: "Brother Xia Bai,

On the way back in the ambulance, Zhong Zicang said: "It

Before Xia Bai entered the Harmony Cinema, due to the

decrease in games, the students in the other bus from Heping

They have been in Quanguang City for thirteen days. During

these thir teen days, they conducted a total of ten rescue
operations. The one on the first day was the most tragic, and the
three rescue operations on the third day were the most tiring.
Even if it was an easy two days, My ner ves are always tense. When

Zhong Zicang stood at the front of the bus and said that he

was shrouded in darkness. The lights clearly distinguished the
high-rise buildings. There were many residential buildings with
lights, and office buildings with sparse lights. One high-

rise building was an exception. Some of them recognized it.

That's the Huaning T V Center Building.

The historical city of Quanguang City is the capital city of

Huaning Province. It is not the most economically developed city
in Huaning Province, but it is the political and cultural center of

The TV Center Building is one of the few office buildings in

Quanguang City that still has many lights on at night. I don’t
know exactly which floor there was a fire light on.

The driver said: "It seems something happened at the Provincial

At this time, they were on the Cultural Avenue outside the

The driver said: "It looks like, what about us? "

They are responsible for rescuing players in the game. This kind
of thing should not be their business, and it has nothing to do
with these students from Heping Medical College.

D r i v e r : " O k a y. "

They paused for a moment, and when they were about to

continue walking, the car in front also left and turned into the
road leading to the fire. After their car followed, the car behind
also followed, and only the ambulance pulling the injured player
continued on the same path.

Half way thro ugh the walk , the driver's intercom came fro m the
voice of the ambulance driver in front: "Ambulance No. 1022,

are fights between player teams, or players use skills to carr y out

Zhong Zicang immediately told the driver: "Go!"

The driver replied: "Ambulance No. 1022 will be there soon."

At such a close distance, it arrived in less than two minutes.

Huaning TV station consists of a main building and a podium

building, half surrounding a square, and they stood on this square
and looked up.
 "The fire seems to have been put out. It's on the thir teenth
f l o o r. "

"Shall we go up now?"

" O f c o u r s e w e g o u p i m m e d i a t e l y, t h e i n j u r e d c a n' t w a i t . "

"Let's go!"

Huaning TV has launched several good variety shows in the

past two years. The TV station is usually ver y busy outside and the

seen.

The lobby on the first floor is spacious and spacious, with

several elevators. They use two elevators to go up to the 13th
f l o o r.

When they arrived, the fighting had stopped, but the

atmosphere was still tense. Overall, it seemed that three par ties
w e r e c o n f r o n t i n g e a c h o t h e r.

Xia Bai saw a familiar person.

L i n g C h a n g y e s t o o d i n f r o n t o f s e v e r a l p e o p l e . H e d i d n' t
recognize those people, but they looked either relaxed or
powerful, not like ordinar y people.

Hearing someone approaching, Ling Changye glanced towards

them. When he passed Xia Bai, his eyes were the same as when he
passed other people.

() They all wear white coats, and you can tell what they do at a
glance.

A bald man on the opposite side laughed, "As expected of the

To u r i s m A u t h o r i t y , t h e r e s c u e t e a m a r r i v e d i n s u c h a t i m e l y

a windbreaker several times, and also saw him missing arms and
legs several times. It is reasonable to suspect that his habit of
wearing a windbreaker star ted fro m him. Star ting fro m his legs,
the windbreaker draped over his body could cover his missing
a r m s b e t t e r t h a n w e a r i n g i t o n h i s b o d y.

His back was bent in a small arc, he lowered his head to look at
the tragically dead player at his feet, and turned him over with his
f e e t . S h e s a i d , " Yo u ' r e w e l c o m e . S i n c e w e k n o w e a c h o t h e r, t h e r e ' s
no need to talk nonsense. Could you please come with us to the
Education Institute?" "

The other par ty just laughed.

Ling Changye raised his eyes and waved his hand, "Players

these two societies. "

O n t h e 1 3 t h f l o o r, n o t c o u n t i n g v o l u n t e e r s , t h e r e w e r e a b o u t
twenty people. A dozen people were lying on the ground. Blood

extinguished left behind a smoky smoke that filled the room like
gray mist. There were people with different expressions on their
faces.

A g r o u p o f p e o p l e l o o k e d a t e a c h o t h e r. T h r e e o f t h e i n j u r e d

continued running for ten seconds. Come here.

The fewer people left, the more tense the atmosphere becomes.

Ling Changye turned to look at them, "The rescue team goes

down and waits. "
 The volunteers were infected by the tense atmosphere. They
had seen many bloody scenes after games, but this was the first
time they saw this kind of tense confrontation between players.
The people on this entire floor looked like they were all big. Dude,
no one is easy to mess with. It seems like he will kill someone in
the next second.

They also understood the meaning of the attack team

c a p t a i n ’s w o r d s . T h e y w e r e a b o u t t o f i g h t a n d a s k e d t h e m t o g o

They subconsciously looked at Zhong Zicang, Just as Zhong

Zicang was about to speak , the three people who ran away at first
came back , followed by several people, all of whom had ugly
f a c e s . T h e p e r s o n a t t h e f r o n t s a i d n e r v o u s l y : " W e c a n' t g e t o u t .
We seem to be involved in the game." . "!
 Chapter 42

Upon hearing the news, the atmosphere on the 13th floor

suddenly changed.

The tension is still there, but it is not the tension of a three-

par ty confrontation. At this time, they all know that clearing the
game is the most important thing at the moment.

In this world, except for the attacking team, almost no one

wants to enter the game. Even among the attacking teams, not
ever yone wants to enter the game. After the vast majority of
players have entered the game, even if they have skills, they only
want to use them outside the game. They will also be nervous and
cautious when facing the game. After all, the game is almost a
narrow escape.

Ling Changye noticed the expressions of these people and

laughed. Because of his relaxed and casual feeling, when he
smiled and talked to people, he seemed to be chatting with
r e l a t i v e s a n d f r i e n d s . " T h e p e o p l e o f t h e H o l y Tr a v e l G u i l d s u p p o r t
g a m e s s o m u c h t h a t t h e y a l m o s t r e g a r d g a m e s a s g o d s . " Yo u m u s t
be happy to enter the game, right?"

"..."

Most of the volunteers have entered the game for the first
time, but they have already felt how bloody and terrifying the
game is in advance during the rescues after the game. When being
involved in the game, the panic is much more profound than that
of ignorant newcomers.

Hearing Ling Changye ask this, his tension was inexplicably

relieved a lot.

T h e b a l d m a n g r i t t e d h i s t e e t h a n d s m i l e d , " Ye s , m a n y s t u p i d ,
weak and inferior humans will be screened out again. Of course we
a r e h a p p y. "
 As he said that, he glanced at Xia Bai and his group of
volunteers with a sinister smile.

The people wearing white coats and protective clothing are

naturally from the rescue team of the Logistics Depar tment of the
G a m e M a n a g e m e n t B u r e a u . W h o d o e s n' t k n o w t h a t t h e r e s c u e
team of the Game Management Bureau, except for a few
therapeutic players, are all unskilled people.

The volunteers said nothing.

This game does not require people from the Game Management
Bureau to come out to educate people.

While the game was locked, they were divided into three
groups, each occupying a corner position on the 13th floor to
d i s c u s s s e p a r a t e l y.

O n t h e H o l y To u r G u i l d s i d e , t h e r e a r e a t o t a l o f 1 5 g u i l d
players plus the players who came to seek refuge.

T h e b a l d h e a d w a s o b v i o u s l y t h e l e a d e r, a n d h i s f o l l o w e r a s k e d
him ner vously: "Brother Qiang, what should we do?" The

bald head had a sinister look on his face, looking at people like
a beast, "Why are you ner vous? It seems that our side has the
a d v a n t a g e a t t h e m o m e n t . J u s t n o w L i n g L i n g C h a n g Ye a s k e d u s

Another Holy Journey The players in the guild also said: "Those

"

N o . " T h e f o l l o w e r f r o w n e d a n d s a i d , " Yo u d i d n ' t r e a l i z e t h a t

they Are they pretty good-looking over there?"

Both of them were stunned. They were both people who had
played in more than one game, and they immediately understood
what he was talking about.

The game has to do with where the game lands. They were
locked into a game at the Provincial Radio Center building, and
this game is likely to be related to what often happens here.

Huaning TV is a relatively famous TV station. Almost ever yone

has watched its programs. There are many excellent TV series. It is
even more famous for its variety shows, which have both good
r e p u t a t i o n a n d p o p u l a r i t y.

They had seen it here in advance. The podium below was mostly
used for offices. In addition to offices and large conference
rooms, the main building also had many studios.

Therefore, they are likely to shoot a movie or TV show here, or

par ticipate in a variety show-related TV show - these are all
related to appearance.

The woman next to the bald man flipped her long black hair
and asked, "Am I not good-looking?"

The bald man also laughed, with blood coming from the corners
of his mouth. "There are so many good-looking people, have they
all become star s ? Are they famous in the enter tainment industr y?"
How many of them are simple? It depends on the means and
w h e t h e r y o u h a v e t h e d e s t i n y. "

there are 13 people in total. There were six people on Ling

Of so many people, perhaps only Xia Bai really understood what

not the attack team. It may be that the opponent is not that
simple, so he, who has just finished walking his baby for a week ,
is allowed to come to the town.

In the Game Management Bureau's online class, Xia Bai saw a

Management Bureau only records that two players exploded and
died in front of him.

He entered the game with his wife and met almost no

opponents. A group of par tners from the attack team entered a
game with them but failed to come out in the end. I don’t know
if it has anything to do with them.

facial features are exposed is ver y beautiful, but a little thin, with
sunken eye sockets, some traces of time, and also the tenderness
left by the years.

[The game is loa ded and the special map Huaning T V Station is
online. ]

All players who are sizing each other up and thinking about
themselves are in awe.

Xia Bai has entered two games on normal maps, and this is the
first time he has entered a special map.

Anyone who has watched the online popular science courses of

the Game Management Bureau, or has been diving in the player
exchange center for a few days, will know that ordinar y maps have

the truth.

There is no fixed gameplay for special maps, and there are

various forms. Special maps are not necessarily more difficult than
ordinar y maps. Just like Er w a's copy of Qili Village Primar y
School, a group of children play a game, and the winner passes
the level. But there are

"Please all trainees gather in the studio on the first floor

below! Please gather all the trainees in the studio on the first
floor below!"

Not daring to disobey the game orders, all three groups of

players immediately took the elevator down.

T h e y o r i g i n a l l y d i d n' t k n o w t h a t t h e r e w a s a s t u d i o o n t h e f i r s t
floor of the main building of Huaning T V Station. Of cour s e it's
probably only in the game. As soon as the elevator door opened,
they felt that this place was obviously different from the 13th
f l o o r.

It is autumn in Quanguang City at this time. The autumn air is

c r i s p a n d t h e w e a t h e r h a s b e g u n t o b e c o m e a l i t t l e d r y. M a y b e i t ' s
because it's undergro und. The gro und floor is damp and dark . It
feels wet and feels like it's summer at the seaside, and even the
fishy smell of the sea is there.

The first floor below is ver y spacious, but the floor height is
not as high as the one above. It looks a bit depressing in the dim
light, especially when there are several expressionless staff
standing in the corridor in front.

A f t e r t h e y g o t o u t o f t h e e l e v a t o r, t h e e l e v a t o r d o o r s l a m m e d
shut behind them.

Xia Bai turned around and found that the elevator on the first
floor below did not have an elevator button, which meant that
they could not use the elevator to get out from here, they could
only get in and out.

He was not the only one to realize that this discover y added to
a layer of panic that they seemed to be trapped in this depressing
subterranean level.

The studio is easy to find. There are only four practice rooms
a n d a l a r g e s t u d i o o n t h e f i r s t f l o o r. A f t e r p a s s i n g t h e s t a f f w h o

studio.

There is a large stage at the front of the studio. The lights on

the stage are bright and dazzling. The stage below is relatively
dark . There are many red leather seats. Three people are already
sitting in the front row of the seats.

J u s t l o o k i n g a t t h e b a c k , t h e r e i s a b l a c k- h a i r e d w o m a n w e a r i n g

c u r l y h a i r.

No one spoke. After the players came in,

two players wanted to sit quietly on the seats. A whip appeared

o u t o f t h i n a i r a n d k n o c k e d t h e m o v e r. I t w a s r e a l l y k n o c k e d o v e r.
It was whipped from the seats to the wall. Blood immediately

exposed white bones quickly turned black . He was screaming in
pain and rolling on the ground.

The woman in the red dress stood up, holding the blood-red
whip in her hand, and said in a sharp voice, as if coming from a
s m a l l t h r o a t : " I s t h i s y o u r e t i q u e t t e i f y o u d o n' t s a y h e l l o t o y o u r

"I heard it." "

"I heard it!"

"Did you hear it?"

"I heard it. !"

Until all players He bowed and answered her loudly before she
closed her voice with satisfaction.

The man beside her slowly stood up, his face was very serious,
and there was no flexible expression that a living person should
have. His face was sullen, and the corners of his mouth were
drooping. "I am the producer of Idol 404." The

curly-haired woman on his right continued. Standing up, she

was a woman with no flaws from her body to her face. She was so
perfect that she said, "I am your senior in the first season and
also your talent instructor in this season."

Xia Bai has never seen it . There were talent show variety
shows. In high school, several girls in the class were fans of the
s h o w, a n d t h e y of t e n d i s c u s s e d i t i n t h e c l a s s . A t t h a t t i m e , h e
was... in a daze, thinking about the happy god at home.

But he could tell a lot about their draft from these three
people who were probably judges.

The producer represents the capital side, and of course, may

also represent the thing called traffic that they mentioned.

A bodybuilding teacher and a talent instructor explained that

the most important thing in this talent show is talent and
appearance, and these two items may be equally important.

T h e p r o d u c e r s a i d : " Yo u k n o w i n y o u r h e a r t w h a t k i n d o f

" R e m e m b e r, t r a f f i c c o m e s f i r s t , a n d f a n s a r e G o d . " A f t e r

the producer finished speaking, on the front, back , left, and

right walls of the studio, a large

() screen almost covering the entire wall lit up, pointing in the
direction of the stage from all directions, like A pair of eyes, as
long as they look up, they can see the comments of those eyes on
them through barrage.

【Will 404 start this year? 】

【 I c a n' t w a i t . ]

[Let me see how this year's trainees are doing. 】

The producer said: "Well, the preliminar y rating will now

officially begin. Please take a seat."

The players quickly took their seats, and the two players who
were beaten to pieces just now were also helped to their seats.

Ya n g M e i p u l l e d X i a B a i t o s i t n e x t t o L i n g C h a n g y e a n d
squeezed into the last row to sit down.

"The trainees who heard their names please come on stage to

perform." The producer looked at the trainees' information and
did not give them time to prepare. He said without looking back :
"First place, Liao Manni."

A wom a n w i t h a h o t f i g u re s a i d Wal k i n g o n to t h e s t a g e , Xi a B a i
recognized her as the woman standing next to the bald head of
t h e H o l y To u r G u i l d .

With her hot figure and beautiful facial features, she is

someone who can make her debut in the hear ts of players. No
wonder she exuded confidence in every step she took.

After Liao Manni came on stage, she pushed her right long hair
b e h i n d h e r s h o u l d e r, r e v e a l i n g h e r w h i t e c o l l a r b o n e , f o l d e d h e r
hands on her vagina, bent down and bowed, "Hello, three judges,
and ever yone in the audience." There was

a b i g s c r e e n b e h i n d h e r, a n d t h e y W h i l e s e e i n g h e r, y o u c a n s e e
the barrage on the big screen.

[ W e l l , t h i s l o o k s o k a y. 】

【I don’t know what talent I have. ]

[ T h e s k i n i s a b i t y e l l o w. 】

【 To o m u c h e y e d r a m a . ]

[No, my breasts are sagging. 】

Xia Bai immediately lowered his head to look at his flat chest
w h e n h e s a w Ya n g M e i .

"..."
 Liao Manni could also see the barrage on the left and right of
the auditorium and on the big screen at the back , especially the
o n e a t t h e b a c k f a c i n g h e r. H e r e x p r e s s i o n c h a n g e d w h e n s h e s a w
the barrage.

[What? This expression management is terrible. ]

[Is she dissatisfied with our comments? ]

[I will give you the first F level first. ]

T h e m u s c l e s o n L i a o M a n n i 's f a c e t w i t c h e d s l i g h t l y, v e r y l i g h t l y,
b u t t h e s t a g e l i g h t s w e r e s o b r i g h t t h a t t h e y a l l f o c u s e d o n h e r,
and any subtle expression could be clearly seen.

The physique teacher suddenly said, "The audience said you

c a n' t m a n a g e y o u r e x p r e s s i o n s w e l l . D i d n' t y o u h e a r ? W h y d o n' t
you laugh?"

T h e y d i d n' t k n o w w h a t t h e o t h e r t w o j u d g e s w e r e l i k e . T h i s
physique teacher was currently the most terrifying one among the
players. The whip she placed next to her was full of blood, as if it
could be whipped back at any moment and hit her to the bone.

Liao Manni immediately laughed, which was a little forced and

embarrassing, and was once again amplified by the light.

[ L a u g h i n g i s t o o u g l y. ]

[What, did we force her to laugh? 】

【Laughing feels like cr y ing. Am I here to see someone cr y? 】

The physical teacher held her whip, "Did we force you to

p a r t i c i p a t e i n t h e s h o w ? T h i s i s t h e o p p o r t u n i t y y o u a s k e d f o r. I t ' s
so funny!" The

s m i l e o n L i a o M a n n i ' s f a c e b e c a m e b i g g e r a n d b i g g e r, a n d t h e
enlarged smile made her smile The tension is also amplified.

"Are you going to laugh?" The physique teacher slapped his

whip on the ground with a loud "snap", which was even more
n e r v e - w r a c k i n g t h a n b e i n g h i t o n t h e b o d y.

The producer pulled out her information and pressed it on the

table, staring at h e r g l o o m i l y, h i s e y e s s e e m e d t o b e e a t i n g
people, and the dissatisfaction on his face seemed to condense
into black water and drip on

the ground .

The barrage scrolled faster and faster on the four large

screens, and it was so dense that it seemed like you could hear
the dissatisfied curses, and it seemed like pairs of staring eyes
were turning.

T h e s m i l e o n L i a o M a n n i ' s f a c e g o t e v e n b i g g e r. S h e s e e m e d t o
have forgotten how to smile. She could only pull her mouth wider
a n d w i d e r, a l m o s t a l l h e r t e e t h w e r e e x p o s e d , a n d h e r e y e s b u r s t
into tears.

Not only was she ner vous, but the players in the audience were
a l s o n e r v o u s . T h e y o p e n e d t h e i r m o u t h s i n v o l u n t a r i l y.

Even someone like Liao Manni, who they think can debut on the
spot, behaves like this on stage. What will happen if they go up?

The faint sound of rapid breathing and the ner vous faces in the
audience once again aggravated Liao Manni's ner vousness. She
felt like her whole body was buzzing, but her mind was clear at
the critical moment. She knew that this would only get wor s e. It's
g e t t i n g w o r s e . S h e c o u l d n' t l a u g h , s h e m i g h t d i e f r o m a s m i l e .

She said tremblingly: "I bring a jazz dance to the audience. I

hope you like it."

S h e d i d n' t g i v e t h e b o d y b u i l d i n g t e a c h e r a c h a n c e t o s p e a k ,
and she jumped up as soon as she finished speaking.

I t c a n b e s e e n t h a t t h e f i r s t f e w m o v e m e n t s a r e v e r y s t i f f, a n d

W i t h o u t b a c k- v i e w i n g m u s i c , i t w o u l d b e d i f f i c u l t f o r a p e r s o n
to dance under the quiet gaze of so many unknown and scar y
people, and it would be difficult to bring the audience into the
dance, but Xia Bai felt her rhythm.

After she finished dancing, her eyes were slightly lowered, as if

s h e d i d n' t w a n t t o l o o k a t t h e s c r e e n . S h e w a s s c o l d e d b y t h e
bodybuilding teacher again, "What kind of attitude do you have?
I s t h i s h o w y o u r c o m p a n y t e a c h e s y o u ? Yo u d o n ' t e v e n l o o k a t t h e
audience to communicate on stage?"

Liao Manni took a deep breath and raised her head with a
smile.

S h e r e a l l y d o e s n' t s e e m t o b e a b l e t o s m i l e . T h e p l a y e r s i n t h e
audience all thought so.

The bodybuilding teacher was so angry that she turned black,

" Yo u h a v e t h e u g l i e s t m o u t h I h a v e e v e r s e e n . Ta k e a g o o d l o o k i n

T h e r e a r e s i x l e v e l s o f A B C D E F, a n d L i a o M a n n i o n l y g o t a n E i n
the end.

The audience ratings will be directly counted on the big screen,

t h e r e a r e 2 1 C , 1 6 0 D, 6 5 0 E , a n d 1 5 9 F.

T h e b o d y b u i l d i n g t e a c h e r g a v e i t a n F, t h e t a l e n t i n s t r u c t o r
gave it an E, and the producer also gave it an E.

T h e b o d y b u i l d i n g t e a c h e r s a i d : " Yo u s h o u l d b e g l a d t h a t t h i s i s
the initial rating. If you get an E in the future ratings..."

S h e d i d n' t s a y w h a t w o u l d h a p p e n , s h e j u s t s t u c k o u t h e r
tongue and licked her lower lip.

Ya n g M e i t o o k o u t a p e n a n d a s m a l l n o t e b o o k f r o m n o w h e r e ,
wrote on it and asked Ling Changye: "Captain, how is she
dancing?"
 Since the two players were split, the player sitting in the seat
N o o n e s p o k e . Ya n g M e i a l s o k n e w t h a t h e c o u l d n o t s p e a k , s o h e
wrote.

X i a B a i s a w L i n g C h a n g y e w r i t i n g b a c k t o h i m i n t h e s a m e w a y.
The handwriting was flying and phoenix dancing. He wrote ver y
casually and in one stroke, "Professional level, Liao Manni should
b e a p r o f e s s i o n a l d a n c e r. "

Ya n g M e i : " A h , t h i s 4 0 4 t r a i n e e r a t i n g I s i t s o s t r i c t ? "

Ling Changye knew that people around him might be watching,

so he wrote down two more possibilities: "First, the rating is
strict. Second, the direction is wrong."

S e e i n g t h a t Ya n g M e i w a n t e d t o a s k a g a i n , h e w r o t e d o w n i n

T h e p r o d u c e r c a l l e d a n o t h e r p e r s o n's n a m e : " J i a C a i h u a . "

[Can you be

an idol with such a tacky name? ]

[Jia Hua. I think this name is good. ]

J i a C a i h u a i s a m a l e p l a y e r. B e f o r e h e e v e n s t o o d u p , h e s a w

and strange judges staring at him.

" L a u g h , l a u g h . . . " h e r e m i n d e d h i m s e l f, b u t t h e s e w o r d s c l e a r l y
spread throughout the studio through the microphone on the
stage.
 [Hahaha!]

[Is his character a clown? ]

[Look at his legs shaking, hahaha! 】

The physical teacher whipped the whip to the ground. He shook

e v e n h a r d e r. M a y b e h e l e a r n e d i t f r o m L i a o M a n n i . H e i m m e d i a t e l y

B u t h i s v o i c e w a s s t i l l t h e r e . Tr e m b l i n g , t h i s k i n d o f t r e m b l i n g
is more obvious when singing, trembling, por tamento, and cr ying
throughout the whole song.

There are two emotions that are ver y easy to relate to, one is
embarrassment, and the other is ner vousness. His whole person is
filled with these two emotions, and the players are also ner vous.
T h e y d o n' t k n o w w h a t h e s i n g s , a n d t h e i r d a y s a r e l i k e y e a r s .

Those audiences would not even get pleasure from him.

C l a s s F.

Jia Caihua saw the pro ducer's gloomy eyes when he announced
the results, as if he were looking at a dead person. His hear t
s k i p p e d a b e a t a n d h e r a n a w a y q u i c k l y, f o r g e t t i n g t o e v e n b o w.

After Jia Caihua, the next three players are all F-level.

There are more and more barrages on the screen, and people
are getting more and more dissatisfied. The atmosphere in the
studio is getting more and more tense. Many players are obviously
ver y powerful players with skills. I don’t know why they are so
ner vous in this environment, or even can’t. Dare to breathe
l o u d l y.

They were sitting behind the three judges, and they felt that
b l a c k e n e r g y w a s c o m i n g f r o m t h e p r o d u c e r ' s b o d y. H i s v o i c e

p e o p l e's h e a r t s .
 "Next, Shi Danfeng."

Xia Bai saw the president's wife of Banyue Gro up slowly stand
up. !
 Chapter 43

Shi Danfeng wore a black shir t. On the neck exposed at the collar
of the shir t, there was still a drop of blood that had not been
wiped off and was printed on the hollow of the skinny neck .

[Only the facial features are a little bit discernible. 】

【Old and thin. ]

[ W h y i s you r h a i r s o m e s s y? W h y a re you s o d i r ty? N o re s p e c t

for the stage at all! ]

[ T h e r e a r e w r i n k l e s a t t h e c o r n e r s o f m y e y e s . S i s t e r, d o y o u
still want to make a debut? 】

【This old woman is no good. I am not gerontophiliac, so I'll

give you an F first. 】

Barrages and comments came from all directions, but she was
not affected at all. She stood on the stage and bowed, "Hello,
judges."

Then she looked straight ahead, on the wall behind the seats.
On the screen, those barrages passed through her eyes. She
smiled and bowed again, "Hello, audience."

J u s t s i t t i n g b e l o w, t h e p l a y e r s c a n f e e l h o w m e a n a n d v i o l e n t
the barrages on the screen are. Judging from the performance of
the previous players, it may be even more unbearable when
standing on the stage and facing these.

Not only are they faced with the pressure of an unknown

audience behind the barrage that can determine their life or
death, but also their anger and personal attacks. When people are
a f r a i d , i t i s e a s y t o b e c o m e u n c o n f i d e n t a n d i n f e r i o r, a n d t h e n
become even more panicked.

L i a o M a n n i f r o m t h e H o l y To u r G u i l d , w h o w a s t h e f i r s t t o g o
up, gradually lost her strength under the harsh attacks.

But Shi Danfeng was really not ner vous at all. The lights on the
stage were too strong and ever ything was visible. There was
nothing to hide or hide. She always had a light smile on her face
and a smile in her eyes. She looked up. Look at the screen, look at
the audience and say hello to them one by one.

She seems to be a star who is used to being watched. No, even

the most popular star may not be able to do this on such a
terrifying stage.

[This is interesting. ]

[This expression is awesome. ]

[ I h a v e n' t s e e n s u c h a f u n t r a i n e e f o r a l o n g t i m e . S h e a r o u s e d
my interest. ]

A t t h e j u d g e s ' t a b l e , t h e b o d y b u i l d i n g t e a c h e r l o o k e d u p a t h e r.
She, who often cursed and threatened other trainees, could not
say a word this time.

Seeing that she was silent, the talent instructor asked: "Shi
Danfeng, what is the talent show you brought to the first stage?
Do you need us to prepare props?" "

Thank you, judges, no need." She said: "I will bring you a song
Song."

Ta l e n t i n s t r u c t o r : " A h , o k a y , y o u s t a r t . "

[What, just a song? ]

[ A s I s a y b l u n t l y, s i n g i n g i s t h e m o s t b o r i n g t h i n g . ]

[Singing is the talent with the lowest threshold. Those who

have no talent can sing. 】

Indeed, these players are not real trainees or ar t students.

M a n y o f t h e m d o n o t h a v e g o o d a c t i n g t a l e n t s . Tw o o f t h e f o u r i n

P l a y e r s w h o w e r e r e a d y t o s i n g w e r e a l r e a d y s t a r t i n g t o w o r r y.

Shi Danfeng was still unaffected. She combed her hair with her
h a n d s a n d s a n g s o f t l y, " T h e c a m e l l i a s a t h o m e a r e b l o o m i n g , t h e

She

sang It was a song that seemed to be a folk song. In fact, her

voice was not ver y nice, it was slightly hoarse, and the difficulty
of the song was not high. For some reason, Xia Bai felt that it
sounded better the more she listened to it.

A hand waved before his eyes. Xia Bai's eyes followed the long

was completely awake before he looked up.

M a n y p e o p l e's r a t i n g s h a v e b e g u n t o a p p e a r o n t h e b a r r a g e . A t

Shi Danfeng stopped singing, and Xia Bai put her hand down,
just in time to hear the producer announce her score, C.

T h i s i s t h e h i g h e s t r e s u l t s o f a r. S h i D a n f e n g u s e d h e r s k i l l s a n d

Gaming Administration, his name was Ji Jianping.

Ji Jianping is a man in his twenties, with an average

appearance, but very imposing. After he went up, he showed a less
stiff smile, and then said directly: "I will bring you a sword
dance."

That sword may be his weapon , danced ver y well, but only got

Before the rating began, the producer specifically said that this

clear disadvantage.

After writing, he turned on his mobile phone and opened the

game app without waiting for others to reply to him.

He sat between Xia Bai and Ling Changye. Most of the players'
mobile phones had a layer of anti-privacy film, and his also had

only occasionally heard classmates talk about fans, career fans,

boyfriend fans. Of course, there are also mom fans, so you can
choose your son.

No wonder Ling Changye said they had an advantage. This was

such an advantage.

Ling Changye shook his head before going up. He put his
windbreaker on the seat and Shi Shiran walked to the stage.

he really looked like a young master from a wealthy family with
nothing to do. He was a little noble, ver y laid-back , and had a

[Am I the only one who thinks his smile is fake? ]

[ L o o k s l i k e a p r e t t y b o y. ]

[Pretending to be cool, even wearing an emerald ring when

performing on stage. ]

Ling Changye said with a smile: "Hello judges and audience, I

am trainee Ling Changye, please take care of me."

He was not in a hurr y to star t the performance like those

players, leaving just the right time to watch the barrage, Also give
the judges a chance to speak.

Neither judge found a thorn in his side. The talent instructor

asked: "What is the talent show you are bringing? Do you need
any props?"

" Ye s , p l e a s e g i v e m e a s u o n a . " L i n g C h a n g y e s a i d p o l i t e l y.

All players were stunned.

Many players have gradually realized that they do not

necessarily have to perform singing and dancing on stage like idol
trainees. They can perform some special and skill-related
p e r f o r m a n c e s . P l a y e r s f r o m t h e H o l y To u r G u i l d a n d t h e B a n Yu e
Group thought that Ling Changye was also aware of it and wanted
to take the oppor tunity to guess what his skills were.
U n e x p e c t e d l y, h e a s k e d f o r a s u o n a .

Even if you don’t talk about those scheming people, Suona is

completely incompatible with him!

T h e s u o n a w a s b r o u g h t u p q u i c k l y.

gaming. They seem to have all the props you want, and the quality
is ver y good. This suona seemed to be made of brass. When Ling
Changye held it in his hand, the dark blue jadeite and brass
echoed under the lights that filled the stage. The suona seemed to
have suddenly lost the temperament of the gangster instrument
a n d b e c a m e m o r e r e t r o a n d s o b e r. E l e g a n t t a s t e .

Ling Changye put the suona reed into his mouth, lowered his
eyes and started blowing.

Af ter listening for a few seconds, Xia Bai's eyes lit up

held in Minshi Village, he was always there, and he often went to
the funeral director to watch. After watching it too much, I
became familiar with the fun at funerals.

What Ling Changye played was a piece of mourning music, an

adapted version of "Sorrowful Music" that Xia Bai had heard.

When it comes to which musical instrument is a perfect match

for mourning music, Xia Bai would definitely choose the
suona. The musical instrument born in the vast land of the nor th
can best express the rich and tragic emotions hear tily and
r e p r e s s e d l y.

This adapted "Elegy" temporarily switches to a major key at the

becomes more and more passionate. The sadness of the tune is
added to the tragic and decisive tone. .

H e a c t e d o u t a p e r s o n's d e a t h .

He held the brass suona with his strong fingers, his upper and

The sound of mournful music sounded like a ghost wailing

At some point, the barrages on the four screens suddenly

disappeared. Xia Bai looked up and saw several ratings popping
up among the scattered barrages, several of which were B and C.
He even saw an A.

He looked back at Ling Changye on the stage. Ling Changye

they were ghosts.

rating of C or above. Adding the judges' ratings, his final rating
was C, which is currently the highest.

Just like when he left, Shi Shiran sat back in his seat.

Ling Changye opened a door for everyone, and the players who
went up later all leaned in this direction.

A male player from the Half Moon Group went up and danced a
sacrificial dance. His body was soft and powerful, and he applied
piety and faith to every move he made. He also got an E rank.

He was cr ying because of the bad words in the barrage, maybe

because of his grievance.

A f t e r Ya n g M e i , t h e s t u d i o f e l l i n t o s i l e n c e a n d t e n s i o n a g a i n .
The players on stage faced two terrifying judges, full of vicious
and malicious barrages, and the unknown and terrifying
punishment closely connected behind them. The tension escalated
step by step, getting more and more The more depressed.

The next slight rebound was when the bald man from the Holy

The bald guy got a D grade.

After him, players used their skills one after another and
worked hard to create unique performances to attract the
attention of the audience.

When it was Xia Bai's turn, there were only two people in the

Xia Bai confirmed again: "Is it really an anatomy teacher? I

want to give an anatomy propaganda class. Only anatomy teachers
who have signed the contract can do it. ()"... The

gave him the donation contract Look , Xia Bai watched it

carefully before star ting.

He really gave the ghosts an anatomy experiment class, using

the medical knowledge he learned at Heping Medical College. "In
fact, there are many medical anatomy documentaries and popular

What he wanted to say was that there is such a popular science

film for humans to watch. Xia Bai felt that not only humans have
the right to watch it, but these ghosts also have rights. Some of
them may have donated their bodies and become anatomy
teachers, and they have the right to Knowing what the general
teacher is like in the laborator y building of the medical school, he
wanted to take this oppor tunity to make up for the loopholes in

Xia Bai came back with a blank expression.

Ya n g M e i c a m e o v e r t o c o m f o r t h i m , " I l i k e y o u r p e r f o r m a n c e
the most."

The producer turned his head with a sullen face when he heard
the voice. He saw one of the trainees he had given an A , and the
other was the trainee with the highest rating. Then he turned
back . Headed.

Xia Bai only felt a hint of sadness. He was originally in a weak

mood. When he came back , there was nothing left. He nodded to
Ya n g M e i a n d w h i s p e r e d : " I t h i n k m y p e r f o r m a n c e i s q u i t e

g o t a n F.

A total of 44 players performed on stage without interruption.

They lasted for nearly two hours under high pressure. It was
a l r e a d y p a s t o n e o' c l o c k i n t h e m i d d l e o f t h e n i g h t i n t h e g a m e .
Ever yone was exhausted and their ner ves were hard to relax and
were tense at all times.

After about twenty minutes, the two judges stood up. The
producer in the middle took the list and said: "Based on the
r a t i n g s f r o m t h e f i r s t s t a g e j u s t n o w, w e d i v i d e d y o u i n t o t w o

He said categor y two, not group two.

" M e d i u m t r a i n e e s : Yo u M o h a n , W a n g Q i u , S u n L i j i e . . . a t o t a l o f

These 13 were all F in the initial ratings, but they were not
hopeless. Many viewers also gave other ratings, and Another thing
they have in common is that they all have good looks.

"Inferior trainees: Xia Bai, Zhong Zicang, Zhang Runyue... a

total of 24 trainees."

N e e d l e s s t o s a y, t h e s e 2 4 a r e d e f i n e d b y " i n f e r i o r " .

producer said: "From now on, all your activities and treatment
in 404 will be based on level. , but the categor y level is not fixed,
the only thing that is fixed is your combination. It doesn’t matter
if you are a low-level trainee this week , don’t give up, and work
h a r d t o b e c o m e a h i g h - l e v e l t r a i n e e .”

“Let me tell you the rules of the competition. It will be done

ever y week in the next four weeks. There are competitions and
assessments, including two individual performance assessments
and two team performance assessments." "The

individual assessment will refine the trainee levels. The first

time will be on Sunday of the first week . All those rated F in the
individual assessment will be eliminated. , in the second single
assessment, all trainees rated E-level and below will be
eliminated. The trainees in the top combinations will have a
chance to perform again." "The

team performance competition is also called the category

competition, and the group with the worst performance will be
eliminated from the group. The bottom 30% of the trainees with
scores and at least 2 trainees, and the group with the worst scores
will become the lower trainee combination. The group with the
middle score will eliminate the bottom 10% of the trainees with no
less than 1 trainee. Only the ones with the best results will not be
eliminated and will become the top trainee

combination."

The players were caught off guard by the rules of the game.

It turns out that they are two clubs: the Gaming Administration,
t h e H o l y To u r G u i l d , a n d t h e B a n Yu e G r o u p . B u t n o w t h e m e m b e r s
of the two groups have been disrupted and re-divided into two
groups. From now on, they will have to compete with each other
for sur vival.

T h e y d i d n' t k n o w h o w t o p l a y t h i s g a m e f o r a w h i l e .

At the same time, the players in the lower group are desperate.
They have seen clearly that almost all the upper levels are skilled
bosses, and there are also many powerful bosses in the middle
group. The president of the Half Moon Group is there.

They are definitely not as good as those in the upper group,

and even the middle group is too difficult to win. They have to be
eliminated from their group ever y time, and 7 people have to be
eliminated the first time, not to mention the individual
competition. How are they going to do it? Reach E level or above?
 Producer : "Do you have any questions about grouping and
competition?"

A player from the lower group raised his hand, "May I ask the
p r o d u c e r, i f I g e t a C l e v e l i n t h e p e r s o n a l a s s e s s m e n t r a t i n g , w h a t
is my status?"

According to the initial stage Ranking, he should be a top

trainee.

P ro d u c e r : " Per s o n a l a s s e s s m e n t o n l y a f f e c t s t h e i n d i v i d u a l l e vel

and does not affect the group level. If your group is a lower group
at that time, then you are a C-level trainee in the lower group. If
your group is a upper group at that time , you will be a C-level
trainee in the upper gro up. Star ting fro m the next competition,
the trainees will be divided into individual levels strictly
according to the ABCDE level."

In other words, they are tied to the group.

Even if a trainee is at the lowest level, as long as his group

achieves the best results in the group competition and becomes a
top group, he does not need to be eliminated in the group
competition.

A trainee in the mid-level group raised his hand and asked: "If
we are eliminated, then...will we leave the 404 program group?"

H e a s k e d v e r y u n c e r t a i n l y, m a y b e e v e n h e t h o u g h t i t w a s
impossible.

All players are ver y concerned about this issue. The essence of
the problem is player punishment. They all look at the two judges.

Both judges had smiles on their faces, and they looked ver y
s i m i l a r, b o t h h a p p y a n d w e i r d . T h e p r o d u c e r o n l y s a i d : " N o ,
Luoqing is not a hear tless thing. Why are you going?"

What does that mean?

Without giving them a chance to continue asking questions, the

p r o d u c e r c o n t i n u e d : " Yo u m a y f e e l t h a t t h e r a t i n g c r i t e r i a a r e n o t

is indeed not that accurate. I will tell you this important question

Yo u k n o w t h e d i r e c t i o n , b u t h o w s h o u l d y o u w o r k h a r d ? I s t h e

The producer said: "Let me introduce to you the staff of our

program team."

" To m y r i g h t . " H e p o i n t e d t o t h e p h y s i c a l t e a c h e r. S h e w a s n o t

members. We will pay attention to your topics, audience love,
traffic fans and other data, and at the same time be responsible
for your daily life."

At this point, the players thought that tonight It was about to

end. They were already exhausted and were bombarded by these
game rules and the gameplay clues behind them. They urgently
n e e d e d t o g o b a c k a n d s o r t i t o u t , b u t t h e y d i d n' t e x p e c t t h a t i t

"At the end of the night," the producer said, "Each of your two
groups selects a captain to lead and manage the internal affairs of
your gro up. Star ting fro m the top gro up." The

b a l d h e a d i m m e d i a t e l y r a i s e d h i s h a n d , " P r o d u c e r, I r e c o m m e n d
myself to be the captain. "

"I disagree." Ling Changye and Shi Danfeng said at the same
time.

Guangyou snor ted coldly and looked at them with a ferocious

s m i l e , " T h e n I d o n' t a g r e e w i t h a n y o f y o u w a n t i n g t o b e t h e
captain!"

"Bang!"

"Ah!" As

soon as the bald head finished speaking, the whip in the

bodybuilding teacher's hand danced again. He stood up, threw it
directly at the bald head, and pulled out a piece of white bone on
his arm.

" D i d n' t I r e m i n d y o u ? I s t h i s y o u r a t t i t u d e w h e n t a l k i n g t o
high-level trainees?" Her voice was sharp and harsh. "Next time
you do this, the whip will not hit your arm, but your face. Do you
understand? ?"

T h e b a l d h e a d w a s s o p a i n f u l t h a t h e w a s s w e a t i n g a l l o v e r.
Before the initial rating, he saw two players being whipped and
rolling on the ground. He thought they were useless players. When
he was actually whipped, he realized that he was here. He was
unable to fight back under the whip, and the protective tools he
secretly added to his body were useless.

T h e o t h e r s d i d n' t d a r e t o b r e a t h e w h e n t h e y s a w t h e i r b a l d
heads whipped like this. They have a deep understanding of the
hierarchical differences between trainees and between trainees
and judges, and the dignity and inferiority wrapped in etiquette.

middle group live in double rooms, and those in the lower group
live in six-person rooms.

When they were divided into dormitories, they chatted for a

while. The lower group only had four rooms in total, but there
were 9 female players and 15 male players, and there was also the
i s s u e o f m i x e d g e n d e r.

his head and pretended not to see it.

In the end, the middle group vacated a double room for the
two girls from the lower group to live in.

At this time, there is no deep sense of group hostility between

them, because there are people from their own clubs in different
g r o u p s , a n d t h e y w i l l h e l p e a c h o t h e r.

When they finally lay down on the bed, it was already past two
o' c l o c k a t n i g h t .

Not only do the trainees in the lower group have to squeeze

into a room with six people, but the room is also ver y small, just
like a hard sleeper on a train. There is a bed frame on the left and
right sides of the small room, and each bed frame has a top bunk ,
a middle bunk and a bottom bunk . , the size of the bed is also

This one of them The six people in the room were all severely
frustrated after being scolded and frightened on stage. They also
heard a series of competition rules that were unfavorable to them.
They felt the level difference among the trainees. Then they saw

Zhong Zicang was speechless.

The boy regretted what he said. They all knew that Zhong
Zicang was the most uncomfor table and stressed person to be
i n v o l v e d i n t h e g a m e . O r i g i n a l l y, t h e y w e r e a b o u t t o l e a v e
Quanguang City and go back to school. Who would have thought
that they would be involved in the game like this.

The boy at the top of the door said coldly: "Is that interesting?

behind his glasses was ver y pale. He said, "Although we may not
be able to surpass the upper group, the middle group and we are
both F-level. We strive to Effor ts can be surpassed, so we can live
in a spacious double room and reduce the elimination of
teammates." "

H o w e v e r, t h e r e a r e s e v e r a l s k i l l e d p l a y e r s i n t h e m i d d l e g r o u p . "
The boy was still not confident.

Zhong Zicang said: "They are still F-level even if they have
skills. Captain Ling got C-level without using skills. This is not a
pure competition of skills. As long as we think hard about good
t a l e n t s , w e c a n a c h i e v e g o o d r e s u l t s . Yo u m u s t k n o w t h a t t h e
second round of C-level company Even a solo player will not be
eliminated."

His words comfor ted several boys in the room.

Their room was occupied by volunteers from Heping Medical

College. Xia Bai lay on the bed frame opposite the door and said
nothing, holding the family tree and listening to them.

Z h o n g Z i c a n g : " D o n' t t h i n k t o o m u c h . I f y o u s t i l l h a v e e n e r g y,

brainstorm and see if you can

optimize it."

Seeing that they had stabilized, Zhong Zicang also went to

bed. When he climbed up the bunk , he pa tted Xia Bai's ankle and
s a id, "J unior Xia Ba i, toda y 's per f orma nce is ver y mea ningf ul. "

Xia Bai said "hmm", knowing that he was afraid that he would
be scolded by so many viewers for being depressed, so he said: " I
t h i n k s o t o o , t h a n k y o u , s e n i o r. "

Zhong Zicang was the last one to lie on the bed, and their
dormitor y became quiet. Ever yone thinks about their tomorrow
q u i e t l y o r s a d l y.
 The other dormitories in the lower group, as well as the
dormitories in the middle group, were ver y similar to their
d o r m i t o r y, i n t h a t t h e y w e r e h e l p l e s s u n d e r p r e s s u r e .

In the four th dormitor y of the superior group, Liao Manni

climbed onto Baldhead's sof t and spa cious bed like a snake, and
b r e a t h e d i n h i s e a r c o q u e t t i s h l y, " B r o t h e r Q i a n g , d i d y o u m i s s

Baldhead turned over and pressed her against him. Next, he

said hurriedly: "I star ted thinking about it when you were dancing
on the stage. Come and help my brother relieve the pain."

I n t h e s e c o n d d o r m i t o r y o f t h e s u p e r i o r g r o u p , Yo u M o h a n a n d
Shi Danfeng had both washed up. Han laid the floor beside the
bed. Before going to bed, Han raised his head and smiled at Shi
Danfeng and said, "Afeng, good night."

Shi Danfeng was also smiling at him. Maybe it's because thin
p e o p l e t e n d t o l o o k o l d e r, s o w h e n she smiled with her skinny
face, There were obvious lines, but those lines added a lot of

This night, there were different emotions in different rooms,

just like different lives.
 "Dingle bell!——"

Xia Bai felt that he was woken up by the ringing of the bell not
long after he slept.

He vaguely heard someone cur s e, "It's only fucking five

Ling Changye glanced at his dumbfounded face and said, "I'm

Xia Bai raised his eyes, her round almond eyes focused on him,
" Yo u k n o w ? "

Ling Changye: "When you were performing, many viewers told

you to stop, but I still watched A barrage came up and it was
[wasting natural resources]."

Xia Bai looked at him for a few more seconds and said nothing.

you testing?"
 Why did he feel like he was not on the same channel as them?

Ling Changye said: "Ghosts all want a home."

He was right. Xia Bai's per formance yesterday was for the
purpose of popularizing science and also for testing. There are
many folk

legends similar to ghosts. One is that ghosts scare away or

the human world instead of him. ()

His grandfather told him that there was something similar in

the exorcism of corpses. The exorcists should always be careful
not to let ghosts take over their happy souls.

Many ghosts are ver y greedy for complete corpses. Ling

Changye used a ver y vivid expression, in the form of souls The
ghosts who have been wandering for a long time really want a
home and want to physically experience the life they have lost for
a long time.

desire.

If this is the case, star ting from this desire, the performance of
the program will definitely be no worse than the ordinar y program
that pleases the ghost audience.

[All trainees are invited to the studio for a morning meeting. 】

The studio has also changed its appearance, with a new look,
but there are only twenty seats. There are seven red single sofas

can only Stand and listen.

This show really reminds the trainees of the status gap at ever y
turn.

On the stage, two judges were already sitting on it.

"All trainees, please take a seat," the producer said.

W h e n I s e e t h e u p p e r- l e v e l t r a i n e e s a n d t h e m i d d l e - l e v e l

Maybe the second-class trainees sitting in the crowded and

stiff seats will feel a gap in their hearts when they see the top-
class trainees sitting in the soft and comfor table sofa in front of
them.

O n o n l y t h e s e c o n d d a y, t h e y a l r e a d y f e l t a n i m b a l a n c e .

week's tasks. Of cour s e, I briefly mentioned it last night. This
Sunday we will have a solo assessment performance." "

Same as the first stage, our solo performance The assessment

performance will also be conducted live online. This is the first
competition performance. There will be more viewers, and our
scoring will be stricter and more standardized. Now I will
announce the scoring standards." "The

judges and the audience will evaluate each performance. The

trainees on stage are rated for their appearance and talent, with
appearance accounting for 60% of the score and talent accounting
f o r 4 0 % . A t t h e s a m e t i m e , t h e a u d i e n c e's s c o r e a c c o u n t s f o r 9 0 %
of the final score and the judges' score accounts for 10% of the
final score."

Hearing this The appearance of this performance was 20%

higher than the talent. The players were surprised. Some were
happy and some were sad.

The bodybuilding teacher seemed to have read their thoughts.

S h e a s k e d i n a s h a r p v o i c e : " W h a t 's w r o n g ? I s n' t t h i s v e r y

and chilling to my heart.

Many of them subconsciously opened their mouths like they did

last night.
 The talent instructor said: "I am also in the office on the
s e c o n d f l o o r. I f y o u h a v e a n y q u e s t i o n s a b o u t t h e t a l e n t s h o w , y o u

performance."

The trainees returned to their respective practice rooms.

There is too much pressure for a solo this time. According to

the last rating, 37 people will be eliminated. This time the rating
may be more stringent, and they may not be able to achieve it
even if they try their best.

In the practice room of the lower group, a group of people

discussed and discussed, but could not find any good ideas, and
the atmosphere became increasingly anxious.

Z h o n g Z i c a n g s a w t h a t X i a B a i h a d b e e n s i l e n t a n d d i d n' t k n o w
what he was thinking. He knew that Xia Bai was a player who had
played the game and was not as stupid as he seemed, so he asked
him, "Xia Bai, what are you thinking about?"

Xia Bai: "I'm thinking, what exactly is this show going to turn
us into? Do we have to become like a talent teacher to pass the
level?"

They suddenly understood that there was a correct final

direction and a success stor y around them - outstanding
g r a d u a t e s . Ta l e n t i n s t r u c t o r.

Recalling her appearance, Xia Bai murmured: "Is she like this in
the beginning? What did she go through? What exactly did she
perform on the stage when she became the champion?"!
 Chapter 45 Huaning TV 5

They immediately understood that instead of scratching their

heads and suffering here, it would be better to go to the talent
instructor and ask.

I m m e d i a t e l y, m a n y t r a i n e e s m a d e a n a p p o i n t m e n t t o g o t o t h e

Xia Bai also followed. He had his own idea and just wanted to
v i s i t t h e t h i r d f l o o r.

The negative three floors are cooler than the negative two
f l o o r s . T h e r e i s a l a y e r o f g r a y c o o l n e s s l i n g e r i n g i n t h e c o r r i d o r.
Except for the three judges' offices with house numbers, the other
r o o m s h a v e o l d a n d c l o s e d d o o r s a n d n o h o u s e n u m b e r s . I d o n' t
know what they are doing. What.

There was an assistant outside the door of both teachers'

offices, telling them that only one person could enter at a time.

T h e r e i s n o o n e h e r e w i t h t h e t a l e n t i n s t r u c t o r, s o y o u c a n g o
i n d i r e c t l y. T h e r e w e r e a l r e a d y t h r e e p e o p l e l i n i n g u p a t t h e
bodybuilding teacher's side, and Xia Bai saw that the one at the
front was Liao Manni.

Appearance plays a large par t in the scoring. The judges and

the audience have not yet figured out the aesthetics of the
contest. Many trainees cannot think of good talent ideas. The first
thing they think of is to find a bodybuilding teacher to see if
there is any way to improve their appearance.

Xia Bai thought for a moment and went to line up there.

When he went to line up, Liao Manni happened to go in. It took

about twenty minutes for her to come out, with a worried look on
her face.
 T h e p e o p l e w h o w e n t i n a f t e r t h a t w e r e s i m i l a r t o h e r, a n d n o
one was happy when they came out.

Xia Bai entered four th.

The physique teacher's office is as big as three of their

dormitories. She is sitting on the office chair in the middle, with
her blood whip on the desk . Behind her is a mirror on the wall.
P e o p l e w h o e n t e r w i l l i n e v i t a b l y s e e t h e i r r e f l e c t i o n s i n t h e m i r r o r.

from different directions capturing different par ts of him and
magnifying them on the mirror wall, like a human body puzzle that
w a s n o t p u t t o g e t h e r. E v e r y f a c i a l f e a t u r e a n d p a r t w a s t h e r e ,
shaking messily with his movements.

" H e l l o , t e a c h e r. " X i a B a i b o w e d .

The bodybuilding teacher looked in a good mood and said,

"Please sit down."

Xia Bai sat down on the seat in front of the office, surrounded
by several flashing lenses and mirrors. No matter where he looked,
h e c o u l d s e e h i m s e l f, a n d e v e n S e e y o u r p o r e s .

The body shape teacher asked: "Do you have any questions
about your appearance that you want to ask me?"

Xia Bai nodded, putting his hands on his knees like an obedient
p r i m a r y s c h o o l s t u d e n t , " E x c u s e m e , t e a c h e r, w h e r e c a n I i m p r o v e
my appearance?"

The body shape teacher asked His eyes were like those of
snakes, with a slight ver tical pupil feeling, deep and sharp, and
they slowly scanned his face, nodding and shaking their heads.

N o r m a l l y, t h e a v e r a g e p e r s o n w o u l d h a v e b e e n n e r v o u s w h e n
being looked at like this, and as she kept shaking her head, she
began to think about where she had made her shake her head, and
w h a t f l a w s h e r f a c i a l f e a t u r e s h a d . H o w e v e r, X i a B a i d i d n ' t c h a n g e
a t a l l , a n d s t i l l l o o k e d d u m b . H e l o o k e d a t h e r b l a n k l y.

Seeing this, the bodybuilding teacher said directly: "First of all,

t h e r e i s s o m e t h i n g w r o n g w i t h y o u r e y e s . Yo u l o o k t o o d u l l . "

After saying that, Xia Bai saw his own eyes in several mirrors.
So many eyes appeared at the same time from different angles.
Some are enlarged versions, and it seems difficult to find the
problem.

X i a B a i b l i n k e d , " T h a t 's b e c a u s e I h a v e n' t e n c o u n t e r e d a n y t h i n g

Management is impor tant, your poor facial expression
management alone can cause you to be demoted one level in the
new standard solo."

Xia Bai twitched the corner of his mouth and laughed.

be less than 180cm. Male trainees who are less than 180cm are
disabled." "

I am 177cm, not really 180cm, but I am much higher than

average. Regarding male height, teachers should go online less
a n d l o o k m o r e a t r e a l i t y. I n r e a l i t y , I a m q u i t e t a l l . " X i a B a i s a i d .

The physique teacher frowned: "Are you refuting me? In the 404
program group, male trainees who are not 180 are useless! If you
d o n' t b e l i e v e m e , w a i t u n t i l y o u c o m e o n s t a g e a n d s e e . " "

Also, you are a male trainee, so thin, with no muscles at all.

What's that? "
 X i a B a i o p e n e d X i a n's w a i s t s h i r t , " A l i t t l e b i t . "

The physique teacher took a deep breath and almost went to

get the whip, his voice was sharp and hoarse, "Since you are so
confident, why did you come to me? Xia Bai: "

I saw that there is a beautician in the teacher's team. Can the

t e a c h e r g i v e m e s o m e s k i n c a r e p r o d u c t s ? I h a v e n' t u s e d t h e m

Bai: "Oh."

Xia Bai went out, holding a bottle of facial cream in his hand.

The number of people queuing outside did not increase, and it

was time for breakfast.

T h e r e s t a u r a n t i s a t t h e e a s t e n d o f t h e s e c o n d f l o o r, a v e r y
small restaurant where low-level trainees can only eat white rice

As soon as he asked, Ling Changye came to the restaurant.

When he saw them walking towards this side, his eyes fell on Xia
Bai. Cream on white hand.

Xia Bai immediately stuffed the cream into his pocket, "It was
g i v e n b y t h e p h y s i q u e t e a c h e r. "

Breakfast time was only 40 minutes, and the time was ver y
concentrated. Many trainees came to eat, and more and more

During the initial rating, people who sang and danced generally
had ver y poor results. For example, people who used their skills
like a bald man were surprised, even if they were frightened, their
results were good.

H o w e v e r, h o w c a n o r d i n a r y p l a y e r s h a v e s o m a n y u n i q u e t a l e n t

The trainees in the lower group were even more miserable.

Xia Bai was the only one among them who had seen the

In the silence, Ling Changye said "hmm".

After hearing the response, Xia Bai

added : "I have muscles."

the enviro nment in the bodybuilding teacher's office in detail.

Zhang Runyue said: "That's actually under s tandable. Liao Manni

was originally more concerned about her face. She was attacked
by the judges and the audience on the stage last night, and she

That night, there were two situations among the players. One
was that they were worried about what show to perform, and the
other was that they looked in the mirror and touched their faces
from time to time.

Ling Changye: "pua."

Xia Bai, who had just been online for a few months, asked:

suppression. The team leader said that the physical teacher is
tr ying to improve our appearance."

Xia Bai suddenly realized that the physical teacher and maybe
the entire program team were really tr ying to improve our
appearance.

They par ticipated in the preliminar y stage first, where they

were ridiculed and judged one by one by thousands of violent and

 The mirrors and lenses in her office, as well as the cruel
environment of the entire program, are all tools for her pua.

Xia Bai has already felt the impor tance of appearance in real

In Idol 404, no one can say it is not important.

Many players are not in the mood to discuss it, and Zhong

the night with many worries.

First, they needed time to practice well, and second, if they
needed any special performance props, they needed to contact
them in advance. The program team said.

After Zhong Zicang finished breakfast, he organized a group

discussion with his group in the practice room.

Still no one said that when people are under high pressure,
sometimes inspiration will burst out, and sometimes the brain will
not move at all. Even if inspiration bursts out, it will not be as
good as the first stage. Many performances may be covered.

Zhang Runyue Said: "This can be used in our combination

competition. Let's put our profession on the stage together and
use the latest medical technology to rescue people who are dying.
They were not rescued back then. It may be regretful or painful.
Let them know We will work hard to reduce this regret and pain."

Zhong Zicang said: "This

combined with the first [warming the world] direction. "

O k a y, k e e p t h i s o n e t o o . "

Under the leadership of Zhong Zicang, the people in the lower

group began to think carefully and par ticipate in discussions, and
i d e a s e m e r g e d o n e a f t e r a n o t h e r.

The haze in the lower gro up's practice ro om was gradually

Zhong Zicang had comfor ted them before, saying that if they
thought hard, they could at least surpass the mid-level group and
at least clear the solo game, but they only took it as comfort.

players.

A s l o n g a s t h e y w o r k r e a l l y h a r d a n d p r e p a r e c a r e f u l l y.

Xia Bai looked at Zhong Zicang and saw that he finally had a
smile on his face. There was darkness under his crooked eyes. He
might not have slept last night.

He now knows why Zhong Zicang is the president of the

Student Union of Heping Medical College. He is not the kind of
person who just shouts slogans. He really works hard to find
solutions for everyone, and he is also very smart.

After the group discussion, ever yone dispersed to think about

their own programs, but they did not stay in isolation and
discussed together in twos and threes.

Zhang Runyue gestured to Zhong Zicang with a crooked thumb,

This was what Zhong Zicang had compared in the ambulance

The people of Hua Countr y have the blood of infrastructure

flowing in their bones. Xia Bai has heard of many programs about
home renovation and house building. The devils in his program
should like it.

becoming more ner vous and anxious during the
preparation. According to the initial stage rating,

more than half of the people will be eliminated. They have a

direction, but can they break through the F level under the more
stringent scoring standards?
 They dare not think so much. They can only fill ever y second
with practice, thinking about the performance all the time,
thinking about the details of ever y second on the stage,
practicing body posture and expression management, and
improving their hairstyle and overall styling.

T h e l i g h t s i n t h e d o r m i t o r y a r e t u r n e d o f f a t t w o o' c l o c k . I n
order to practice for a while, many trainees rush to wash up ten

wash up. The public restroom has a long pool with seven or eight
faucets, which can accommodate many people to wash up at the
same time.

On Thursday night, after Xia Bai washed her face, she looked up
in the mirror and saw a row of trainees who were brushing their
teeth. They all stood upright, with standard smiles showing eight

In the dark and smelly bathroom, this scene seemed ver y

strange, and Xia Bai, who had never been afraid of death,
suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

The dead are dead, but the people are alive. Living is not only
alive, but also flexible.

Xia Bai ran quickly with a small basin in hand.

nothing to do with groups. All those rated F will be eliminated,
and they will be disadvantaged in the upper group. Ever yone in
this group seemed to be at ease, and there was no discussion or
discussion, which made him even more anxious and unable to
sleep all night long.

He deeply felt the hopelessness of ordinar y people in front of a

group of big guys.

The physique teacher seemed to understand his thoughts very

well and told him: "Because you are in the upper class, the judges

When he first thought about his performance, he thought it was

good, but later he felt that among all the novel performances, his

became and the less confident he became.

In fact, he came here with this idea in mind, and the physical

The physical teacher said to her : "Do you think you really have

not E enough because you are the first one to go on stage. We
assume that being the first to go on stage has a disadvantage,

She knew that plastic surger y was risky and was not a
necessary option in life, but many people still went for plastic
surger y without hesitation. It is because of them The society in
China values faces too much, because many people go there with
the attitude of using their faces to change their lives.

Indeed, she knows some people who have changed their life
trajectories through face transplantation.

High returns and high risks go hand in hand, and plastic

surger y here may have many benefits. The risk is high, but the
reward is also the highest, which is life.

t o L i a o M a n n i ' s p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. H e h a d b e e n w a i t i n g a t t h e d o o r
a n d w a s m o v e d w h e n h e s a w h e r.

After hearing this, ever yone in the practice room ran to the
d o o r o f t h e p r a c t i c e r o o m a n d l o o k e d o u t s i d e . W h e n t h e y r a n o v e r,
Liao Manni happened to pass by the door of their practice room.

Zhong Zicang squeezed a seat for Xia Bai. Xia Bai, squeezed by
a group of trainees, saw Liao Manni walking past him elegantly
and confidently with a smile on her feet in 13cm red-soled high
heels.

She kept the corners of her mouth raised, extending the arc
just to the tips of her ears, as if she was holding an invisible
chopstick , revealing just the right eight bright white teeth, and
her smile was standard and natural.

For the first time, Xia Bai knew that smiling lips could have
s u c h a b i g i m p a c t o n a p e r s o n's f a c i a l f e a t u r e s a n d o v e r a l l
temperament. A perfect smile made her apple muscles rise,
optimized the cur ve of her eyelids, and brought about She is so
confident from the inside out that she even walks better than
before.
 At this time, Liao Manni was even more dazzling than when she
saw her on the 13th floor - this was the common thought of all
the trainees in the lower group, including Xia Bai.

But Xia Bai could see something strange. Her smile was really
natural, not as stiff as on the stage. What was strange was that
Xia Bai felt another kind of stiffness that was hard to detect.

H e o p e n e d h i s e y e s a n d l o o k e d c a r e f u l l y, b u t a f t e r t w o s t e p s o f
L i a o M a n n i , h e c o u l d n' t s e e h e r a n y m o r e .

Xia Bai only smelled the smell of disinfectant that was always
present in the hospital.

"She is so beautiful, my God!"

"Did she have plastic surger y on her mouth? The plastic surger y
effect is great!"

"She looks like there is nothing wrong at all, she is so natural.

I f I h a d n' t s e e n h e r b e f o r e , I w o u l d n o t h a v e k n o w n a b o u t h e r
p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. I t ' s o v e r ! "

After Liao Manni left, the players in their practice room star ted
discussing in various ways. Ever yone was not calm and could not
t h i n k a b o u t t h e i r p r o g r a m q u i e t l y.

Xia Bai saw heartbeat on their faces.

H o w m u c h c a n you i m p ro ve you r p e r f o r ma n c e i n o n e d a y? B u t a
plastic surger y has improved her appearance to another level.

Maybe not only their practice room, but also the other two
p r a c t i c e r o o m s c a n' t c a l m d o w n a n d p r a c t i c e . T h e r e a r e t o o m a n y
p e o p l e w h o a r e i n t e r e s t e d i n p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. T h e i r o n l y c o n c e r n i s
the side effects, so they all stare at Liao Manni, wanting to know
how she feels and whether she has any problems.

That night, the dormitor y area changed from its usual

d e p r e s s i v e s t a t e t o b e c o m i n g a n x i o u s a n d l i v e l y.
 When Xia Bai came back with a small basin, the news he heard
f r o m o u t s i d e w a s b e i n g d i s c u s s e d i n t h e d o r m i t o r y.

Hu Yihang said: "Liao Manni said that the plastic surger y only

Wan g M i n g , w h o w a s o n t h e l o wer b u n k of H u Y i h a n g , s a i d , “ I s
there really such a good thing? Why does it sound so unreliable?”

All the benefits are seen in one thing, and there are no
disadvantages, even for children. Know there is a problem.

" T h e p r o g r a m t e a m h a s a p l a n . T h e y d o n' t g i v e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y
for free. What will it cost in exchange for it?" Hu Yihang said: "But

" A h , l e t ' s p u t i t t h a t w a y. , b u t i t s o u n d s s a f e r. I k n e w t h i s b i t c h

Ye s , I f e e l a b i t l i k e t h e o n e i n t h e m o v i e , w h e r e w e t r a d e s o u l s ,
love, family affection, etc., Of course, if you only need plastic

T h e r e w a s a l i v e l y d i s c u s s i o n i n t h e d o r m i t o r y, a n d t h e y s e e m e d
to feel more at ease.

Maybe they feel at ease knowing what the plastic surger y will
cost. At least they know that the program team is not giving the
plastic surger y for free. They all know the truth, there is no good
thing if it is free.

Maybe they know that plastic surger y requires sacrifices, so not

a l l p l a y e r s w i l l g o f o r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d t h e y w i l l n o t b e s o
embarrassed. If they can accept the exchange of the program
team, they can still gain an advantage in the game.
 Xia Bai lay on the bed and listened to their discussion. She
took a little cream and warmed it in her palms. After rubbing it,
she pressed it carefully on her face. She touched her soft face,
l o o k e d o u t t h e d o o r, a n d l a y d o w n .

F r i d a y.

With less than two days left before the solo, the trainees are
getting more and more anxious.

After Feng Sheng talked with Liao Manni, he went to the

bodybuilding teacher to have a plastic surger y before breakfast.
A f t e r t h e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, h e c a m e t o t h e c a f e t e r i a f o r b r e a k f a s t .

Feng Sheng had a nose job because he originally had a flat

n o s e . I f y o u a s k w h i c h f a c i a l f e a t u r e s c a n b e s t e n h a n c e a p e r s o n's

temperament. There may be some celebrities with single eyelids
and small eyes, but there are not many with flat noses and garlic.
Nasal.

He was originally a bit rough, but after having a nose job, he

became much more refined. It can be said that he changed from a
b o d y g u a r d t o a C E O.

X i a B a i l o o k e d o v e r t h e r e a n d s a i d b l a n k l y, " I w a n t t o t o u c h i t

"..."

Ling Changye: "I'll let you touch it when I get it."

 C u r r e n t l y, o n e o f t h e o n e s u n d e r g o i n g p l a s t i c s u r g e r y i s L i a o

Association.

Although it is a group competition, the competition has not yet

star ted. They do not have a strong sense of grouping yet. They are
still more inclined to unite the club and regard the other two
clubs as enemies. They probably do not want to share news with
them, so naturally they will not let them touch.

"I'll touch it for you at noon." Hu Yihang suddenly said from

the table next to him.

Several people turned to look at him. Zhong Zicang asked: "Hu

Yihang, have you thought about it?"

H u Y i h a n g s a i d : " I w a n t t o h a v e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a t l e a s t a s k
w h a t I c a n e x c h a n g e f o r i t . I f I c a n' t a c c e p t i t , I w o n' t h a v e i t . I f I
can accept it, I'll do it."

They were originally practicing in the lower group. There is a

gap between students and other groups. If ever yone else has been
cured but they are still not cured, is it possible for them to
survive?

T h e s e w e r e h i s t h o u g h t s , b u t h e d i d n' t s a y t h e m . H e k n e w t h a t

"I suggest you think about it carefully and see the follow-up
situation of two people undergoing plastic surger y before making
a decision. If you really think about it, I will respect your
decision." Zhong Zicang said.

Hu Yihang nodded, "Well, this is my business."

H e w i l l d e c i d e b y h i m s e l f. I f s o m e t h i n g h a p p e n s , h e d o e s n ' t
want Zhong Zicang to be responsible or have any emotions.
 Not long after breakfast, Hu Yihang went to the physical fitness
teacher's office. He went ba ck ver y late. There were two player s
l i n i n g u p b e f o r e h i m . E a c h p l a y e r h a d t o w a i t f o r a l m o s t a n h o u r.
In the

practice room, other players were practicing while waiting for

Z h o n g Z i c a n g r e m i n d e d t h e m : " P r a c t i c e h a r d , d o n' t t a l k a b o u t
other things, practice your smile well, practice it to Liao Manni's

U n f o r t u n a t e l y, t h e e f f e c t i s n o t g r e a t , a n d m a n y p l a y e r s i n t h e
practice room can no longer calm down. I have made up my mind
to practice, and I want to know what plastic surger y is all about.

H u Y i h a n g d i d n' t c o m e b a c k u n t i l a f t e r 1 1 n o o n .

Hu Yihang's surger y was on his eyes. He had his double eyelids

cut, and it seemed that something else had been done to make his
eyes feel completely different from before. It was a bit hard to
l o o k a w a y.

" Yo u h a v e c h a n g e d s o m u c h ! "

"Their plastic surger y technology is really awesome!"

" S t a y s t e a d y , b r o t h e r, y o u a r e s t e a d y ! "

"In exchange for the oppor tunity to have plastic surger y?" "

What to exchange for the oppor tunity to have plastic surger y?"
It was the question that everyone was most concerned about. Hu
Yihang knew it. He rubbed the end of his eyes and his mood
h a d n' t c a l m e d d o w n y e t . H e t o o k a b r e a t h , n o t s u r e w h e t h e r i t w a s

I f i t ' s n o t f a i r, I w o n ' t c h a n g e i t . "

"How fair can it be?" Zhong Zicang asked.

 " E x c h a n g e f o r w h a t e v e r y o u w a n t . " H e h a l f- c o v e r e d h i s e y e s ,
" M y e y e s w e r e a b i t s m a l l a n d l o o k e d q u i t e g l o o m y, s o I h a d m y
eyes corrected. I, I changed my eyes to a pair that suits me. In
exchange, I want to hand my eyes over to them and put them in
their plastic surger y material librar y to find a suitable new

owner ."

All the players were stunned.

N o w o n d e r h e s a i d i t w a s f a i r, a n e y e f o r a n e y e , i t r e a l l y
s o u n d e d f a i r.

"In that case, Liao Manni and the others..."

"Liao Manni changed her mouth into a smiling lip, and Feng
Sheng also changed into a nose." "

But, th e h uma n body 's immune s ys tem re jects f ore ign org a ns
and tissues." As soon as Zhang Runyue finished speaking, she felt
that what she said was ridiculous. She was talking about biology
and medicine in a weird game. This was no place for
science. "What is this?"

X i a B a i s a i d b l a n k l y, " H u m a n b o d y g r a f t i n g ? "

"..."

Could you please stop creating such a terrifying word?

Hu Yihang immediately covered his eyes, "Xia Bai, what

nonsense are you talking about! Do you still want to touch my
eyes?"

Xia Bai immediately said: "It's just an eye change, maybe it's
s a f e r t h a n f i l l i n g i t w i t h o t h e r m a t e r i a l s . To u c h i t f o r m e " ? "

Hu Yihang lowered his head. His breath was still ver y unstable,
" J u s t t o u c h y o u r e y e s . Yo u d o n ' t w a n t t o w i p e y o u r e y e b a l l s , d o
you?"
 He also wanted to be touched, and inexplicably felt that this
would make him feel more at ease. .

X i a B a i s h o o t s f i r s t H e p a t t e d h i s s h o u l d e r, w h i c h m a d e H u
Yihang feel more at ease. Then he carefully touched his eyes
through his eyelids and asked him: "How do you feel?"

H u Y i h a n g c l o s e d h i s e y e s a n d b r e a t h e d s l o w l y. I t b e c a m e

cold."

Xia Bai touched me for a while and then withdrew his hand,
saying only: "The technique is very good."

He finished touching me , several people came over to touch it

again, and they all mar veled that the technique was really good,
and the incision could not be seen, but the eyes were still slightly
congested, red and swollen.

I t w a s n' t u n t i l t h e m e a l b e l l r a n g t h a t H u Y i h a n g e s c a p e d f r o m

cursing, "I'll charge for touching you again, you stinky gangsters!"

He no longer looked ner vous and said this As he spoke, his

eyes moved, making his facial features lively and even a little
c h a r m i n g . H e r e a l l y l o o k e d l i k e a p e r s o n w h o c o u l d c h a r g e m o n e y.
The other players were stunned when they saw him.

"Hu Yihang... Hu Yihang, you are so awesome now!"

Not only the trainees in the lower group, but also the trainees
i n t h e u p p e r g r o u p w e r e l o o k i n g t h i s w a y. H u Y i h a n g f e l t a l i t t l e

" W h a t d i d h e s a y ? " L i n g C h a n g y e a n d Ya n g M e i w a l k e d u p t o

Xia Bai told them what Hu Yihang said again.

After he finished speaking, Ling Changye asked, "Did you find

anything?"

" H i s e y e s a r e d e a d . " X i a B a i s a i d c a l m l y.

Ya n g M e i ' s e y e s w i d e n e d l i t t l e b y l i t t l e , a n d s h e h u r r i e d l y
covered her mouth. She only let out a little bit and made a small
sound, "How do you know? His eyes are ver y smar t when I see
him. How could he be dead?"

X i a B a i d i d n' t k n o w w h a t t o t e l l t h e m s o t h a t t h e y c o u l d b e l i e v e

Both

of them both Lost in thought, not knowing what to think .

Xia Bai was tr ying hard to think about how to make them
believe in him. He knew that what he said was unconvincing.

Hu Yihang's eyes were indeed ver y lively when he smiled (), and
they were not like the eyes of a dead person in the eyes of
ordinar y people.

While he was thinking hard (), he heard the two of them say in
unison: "I believe it."

Xia Bai: "...?"

What were they thinking about just now?

Ling Changye seemed to really believe it, trusting his

professionalism and said, "Go on."

"Huh? Oh." Xia Bai took the trust of the two of them and
c o n t i n u e d : " L i a o M a n n i ' s m o u t h s h o u l d b e d e a d t o o . Ye s , i n s t e a d

of a dead person who could smile."

Combined with what Hu Yihang said, they now understand what

this sentence means.

the materials for our plastic surger y are from trainee NPCs who
died in the past. If we fail to clear the game, our facial features
will also be given to future ones. Do players use it?"

Xia Bai felt that what he said was meaningless, but encouraged

Ya n g M e i : " I w i l l d e f i n i t e l y w o r k h a r d , b u t h o w s h o u l d I w o r k

Xia Bai turned to Ling Changye and asked, "Do you want to tell
them?"

" I l i s t e n t o t h e c a p t a i n . " X i a B a i n o d d e d b l a n k l y.

Ling Changye looked at him again, but said nothing.

Xia Bai was still curious: "What are the dangers of using dead

Xia Bai thought of the talent instructor's eerily per fect face,

observe Hu Yihang tonight, and we will decide whether to tell
t h e m t o m o r r o w. "

X i a B a i n o d d e d o b e d i e n t l y.

They finally entered the restaurant, where other players had

already star ted eating.

Xia Bai got the white rice belonging to his inferior trainee

 Others in the Game Management Bureau were discussing who
h a d u n d e r g o n e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y t o d a y. T h e t h r e e o f t h e m f o l l o w e d
the names they mentioned and observed the trainees, focusing
their attention on Liao Manni, Feng Sheng and Hu Yihang.

Liao Manni no longer looked in the mirror as frequently as

before. She lowered her head while eating. Viewed from the side,
the corners of her mouth were still raised while eating.

I f y o u s a w t h i s s c e n e o n a n o r m a l d a y, e v e r y o n e w o u l d
definitely find it strange, but under the pressure of death, they
practice all the time, especially their smiles. They practice smiling
when brushing their teeth, and it is not strange to smile when
eating - in the minds of other trainees.

Feng Sheng picked up a piece of spicy chicken and was about

to eat it when he suddenly sniffed. Shi Danfeng asked him what
was wrong. He shook his head and continued to eat. But not long
a f t e r, h e t o u c h e d h i s n o s e a g a i n a n d p u t t h e f i n g e r s t h a t t o u c h e d
the bottom of his nose to his nostrils to smell.

H u Y i h a n g k e p t s m i l i n g a n d s e e m e d v e r y h a p p y, b u t
occasionally he would get lost in thought, rub his eyes and
continue talking to others with a smile.

After lunch, more players went for plastic surger y in the

afternoon. Those who went there might not be able to finish it
t h a t d a y, s o t h e y w e r e s c h e d u l e d f o r t o m o r r o w. A f t e r h e a r i n g t h e

In addition to practicing smiling, Xia Bai had been observing

Hu Yihang in the practice room and found that sometimes he
would turn his face away without turning his eyes, or when he was
l o o k i n g o u t t h e w i n d o w , h i s e y e s w o u l d t u r n t o t h e m i r r o r.

H e d i d n' t k n o w i f H u Y i h a n g h a d n o t i c e d i t .

After returning to the dormitor y in the evening, Xia Bai washed

u p e a r l y, l a y d o w n o n t h e b e d , w r a p p e d h e r s e l f t i g h t l y i n a c l a m m y
quilt, and continued to obser ve Hu Yihang through the gaps in the
quilt.

H e a l w a y s f e l t t h a t t h i s t h i n g w a s v e r y f a m i l i a r, a s i f i t w a s n o t
the first time he had done it. He was so skilled that he wrapped
h i m s e l f t i g h t l y i n t h e q u i l t a n d f e l t s o r r y f o r h i m s e l f.

A f t e r t h e l i g h t s i n t h e d o r m i t o r y w e r e t u r n e d o f f, h i s h e a d c a m e
out from under the quilt.

Hu Yihang slept in the middle bunk like him

, and he could see his face when he turned sideways.

A f t e r t h e l i g h t s w e r e t u r n e d o f f, w h e n e v e r y o n e w a s g e t t i n g
ready to sleep, Hu Yihang rubbed his eyes and planned to
s l e e p . N o t l o n g a f t e r, h e o p e n e d h i s e y e s a g a i n , p u t h i s h a n d s o n
his eyes and stroked them carefully several times, and then closed
his eyes.

After repeating this three or four times, he actually fell asleep.

X i a B a i c o u l d n' t s l e e p y e t . H e k e p t s t a r i n g a t H u Y i h a n g ,
stubbornly resisting sleepiness.

He touched his eyes and wondered what would happen if he got

d a r k c i r c l e s u n d e r h i s e y e s . I t w o u l d n' t l o o k g o o d .

Xia Bai pursed her lips and continued to stare at Hu Yihang

quietly in the silent night.

I don’t know how much time passed, maybe it was almost

dawn, and Hu Yihang opened his eyes.

Xia Bai lowered her eyelashes and looked at it with only a

narrow line of sight.

T h e e y e s t u r n e d a r o u n d q u i c k l y, a n d s u d d e n l y t h e y w o u l d o p e n
ver y wide, and the eye sockets would almost burst open, and then
tears would overflow from the eye sockets, as if they were caused
by rapid rotation.
 There was a lot of sweat on Hu Yihang's forehead. He stretched
o u t o n e h a n d a s i f h e w a s s t r u g g l i n g . H e d i d n' t k n o w w h e t h e r t h e
sweat on his forehead was from fatigue or pain.

The more he struggled, the faster his eyes moved. Xia Bai
secretly opened his eyes wide and saw that the tears were still
f l o w i n g o u t , a n d t h e y w e r e a l r e a d y a l i t t l e b l o o d y.

Did he see something, or did it see something?

What did it see, and what did he see?

S u d d e n l y, H u Y i h a n g s a t u p s u d d e n l y, a n d t h e i r o n f r a m e b e d
made a "squeak" sound, which was ver y loud in the dark and small
room, but it did not wake up the other roommates who only slept
l e s s t h a n f o u r h o u r s a d a y.

T h e r o o m o n t h e s e c o n d f l o o r n a t u r a l l y h a s n o b a l c o n y, n o

of breathing is moist and decaying, half faint light, half deep
darkness, sitting in the middle , it is easy to feel confused about
not knowing where you are, not just the time.

H u Y i h a n g t u r n e d h i s h e a d s l o w l y. Ve r y s l o w m o v e m e n t s w o u l d

Those eyes filled with tear s and bloodshot eyes met Xia Bai's
quiet eyes.

H u Y i h a n g o p e n e d h i s m o u t h , b u t n o t h i n g c a m e o u t , s i l e n t l y.

Xia Bai stared at his mouth, as if she understood what he was

saying.

Whose eyes are in my eye sockets. !

 Chapter 47

After Hu Yihang asked about the terms of exchange, he made the

d e c i s i o n t o u n d e r g o p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d e v e r y t h i n g b e c a m e q u i c k
a n d e a s y.

The plastic surger y only took more than ten minutes. After the
p l a s t i c s u r g e r y , h e s a w a b r a n d n e w s e l f i n t h e m i r r o r.

He is an ordinar y-looking person. Long-term and intensive

s t u d y h a s m a d e h i s e y e s s h o r t - s i g h t e d a n d l a c k s l u s t e r. H e l o o k s a
little gloomy when he looks at people, which makes him look even
g l o o m i e r. E v e n i f h e h a s g o o d g r a d e s , h e r a r e l y a t t r a c t s m u c h
attention. moment.

There was a boy in the same grade in his high school who was
like the protagonist of the novel. He had good grades and was
handsome. As long as this boy was around, he could only stand
b e h i n d h i m a n d s t a n d i n h i s s h a d o w.

My first reaction when I saw myself in the mirror was that if he

r e t u r n e d t o h i g h s c h o o l n o w, h e w o u l d d e f i n i t e l y b e t h e o n e w h o
attracted the most attention. He would be the one who would be
discussed by his classmates during class, and he would be the one
who spoke on behalf of the students. He would receive many love
letters. It must be him.

His appearance finally matched his grades.

When he realized what his first reaction was, he suddenly

discovered that deep down in his hear t, he had always cared about
his own appearance. That's why he was so concerned when he
heard that the body teacher could have plastic surger y here.

Zhong Zicang suggested that he watch it again. He knew that

this kind of program that did not treat people as human beings
must have bad intentions. Plastic surger y is not that
s i m p l e . H o w e v e r, w i t h o u t s k i l l s , h o w c a n t h e y s u r v i v e i n t h i s c r u e l

E v e n i n r e a l i t y, t h e r e i s n o s u c h t h i n g a s o n l y b e n e f i t s w i t h o u t
any sacrifice, and there is no path without any risks, let alone in
this horror game.

I f t h i s i s t h e l a s t g a m e i n h i s l i f e , h e d o e s n' t w a n t t o l o s e o n
appearance again.

S e e i n g h i m s e l f i n t h e m i r r o r, h e h a d a n e x p e r i e n c e h e h a d n e v e r
had before, but there was a vague unease of desolation. For a
brief moment, the person he saw through these eyes seemed to be
s o m e o n e h e d i d n' t r e c o g n i z e .

With excitement and slight uneasiness, he returned to the

practice room. When Xia Bai touched his eyes, he regained a warm
s e n s e o f r e a l i t y.

In fact, he does not resist being touched by others. He will feel

at ease when he feels the warmth of others.

He was slowly reduced to nothing but excitement, especially as

they looked at his face in awe.

It's amazing, is this what it feels like to have a beautiful face?

Occasionally he would be a little unable to react, maybe this

face needed to be adapted to, and occasionally he would be in a
trance, giving rise to a sense of panic that was unreal.

This kind of panic deepened when he was about to go to bed.

N i g h t w a s t h e t i m e w h e n p e o p l e's v a r i o u s e m o t i o n s b e g a n t o

w e n t o u t i n t h e d o r m i t o r y.

He touched his eyes well, hesitated, and finally closed them.

H e d i d n' t k n o w h o w m u c h t i m e h a d p a s s e d , b u t h e s a w h i s h i g h
school classmates and saw their surprised eyes when they saw
him.

He was so excited that waves of heat surged in his hear t.

 He stood on the podium and looked proudly at the faces
l o o k i n g u p a t h i m . T h o s e f a c e s w e r e f u l l o f e n v y, a d o r a t i o n ,
fascination, and...fear?

Rolling his eyes, he saw clearly that the audience was full of
strange trainees in stage costumes. They looked at him with
s y m p a t h y a n d h o r r o r.

S t a n d o n t h e s t a g e b y y o u r s e l f.

There was an F on the barrage.

F.

F.

F.

F is the most frightening denial in his life

Where are his classmates?

Where are his classmates!

He looked around in horror for his high school classmates.

These trainees seem to be his classmates? What do his

classmates look like?

In his second year of high school, were the classmates he

watched ever y day and all the time, these trainees?

In a crowded and depressing room, repeating the same thing

day after day in order to cross the single-plank bridge, for fear of
becoming the eliminated person, their facial features gradually
blurred and overlapped, and they gradually became the same
person.

It's not like this, it's not like this, it's not like this!
 H u Y i h a n g s a t u p s u d d e n l y, s i t t i n g o n t h e i r o n b e d t h a t w a s
h a l f d a r k a n d h a l f l i g h t . H e c o u l d n' t t e l l w h e r e i t w a s f o r a
moment. Is this the lower bunk in the high school dormitor y?

Until he saw Xia Bai's quiet eyes.

Quiet, natural and warm.

Normal eyes can speak . Even in such a pair of eyes that were so
quiet and unmotivated, he saw Xia Bai asking him, what did he
see?

What did he see? What did he see again, whose eyes were in his
eyes.

In the four th dormitor y of the top trainees, Liao Manni smiled

and kissed the corner of the ba ld head's eyes, while the ba ld head
h e l d h e r c h i n a n d l o o k e d a t h e r.

Liao Manni had just finished plastic surger y last night. She was
afraid that she was still unstable, so she just obser ved her bald
h e a d c a r e f u l l y w i t h o u t t o u c h i n g h e r.

A f t e r a d a y, h e r m o u t h s e e m e d t o b e s t a b l e , w i t h a c h a r m i n g
and sweet smile, which made Liao Manni's face look so beautiful
under the light.

A mouth can make a person look so much more beautiful.

A strange new red lip.

The bald man became more and more excited as he watched. He

sat on the end of the bed, pulled Liao Manni who was standing on
the ground in front of him, and squatted down.

"Hiss—why is it so cold?" The bald head shivered.

Liao Manni just looked up at him with a smile, speechless.

A t a r o u n d t w o o' c l o c k i n t h e m o r n i n g , a f t e r t h e b a l d h e a d f e l l
asleep, Liao Manni touched her mouth, looking confused.

S h e w a s t h e f i r s t o n e t o u n d e r g o p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. I t h a s b e e n
m o r e t h a n t w e n t y h o u r s s i n c e h e r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d s h e i s s t i l l
smiling.

A f t e r l a u g h i n g f o r s o l o n g , h e r l i p s s t i l l h a v e n' t w a r m e d u p .

So what.

L i a o M a n n i t u r n e d o v e r a n d f e l l a s l e e p c a r e l e s s l y.

S h e i s t h e f i r s t o n e t o h a v e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d s h e i s t h e l e a s t
bothered about it. What is there to be worried about? This is not
h e r f i r s t t i m e t o h a v e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y.

Those players and top students face plastic surger y as if they

were facing a scourge. Their entanglement is so ridiculous.

Ah, they are struggling because they have a choice. They don’t
know that if people live purely by their faces and treat beauty as a
god, they won’t struggle. How can they struggle with becoming
beautiful? How can life be entangled?

T h e y a r e d i f f e r e n t f r o m h e r, a d a n c e r w h o l i v e s b y h e r f a c e .
They are not as good as her at this time.

They should soon know what it feels like to rely on their face
to survive.

Wai t .

A f t e r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, L i a o M a n n i r e g a i n e d h e r c o n f i d e n c e a n d
opened her eyes with a lot of confusion.

What does it smell like?

What is the smell that she hates and resists the most?

W h y c a n' t s h e r e m e m b e r w h a t s h e t a s t e d j u s t n o w ?
 I t ’s b e t t e r i f y o u c a n ’ t r e m e m b e r i t .

S h e d i d n' t w a n t t o t h i n k a b o u t i t a t a l l .

It would be best if this smell disappeared from her life.

L i a o M a n n i t u r n e d o v e r a g a i n a n d f e l l a s l e e p e a s i l y.

S a t u r d a y a t f i v e o' c l o c k .

All the trainees were woken up by the ringing of the bell,

s t a r t i n g a n e w d a y, t h e l a s t d a y o f s o l o w o r k .

Different from the usual scolding, Xia Bai and his trainees'
dormitory was very quiet.

Af ter hearing Hu Yihang's words, Zhong Zicang's face turned

s o l e m n , " Yo u m e a n , t h e e y e s y o u r e p l a c e d h a v e t h e c o n s c i o u s n e s s

woke up, he never closed his eyes again. There were a few red
bloodshot eyes, his brain was confused, and his words were
c o n f u s e d . Wan g M i n g w a s c o n f u s e d ,

"Is it strange or familiar? Are you dreaming? ah? I definitely

experiences and new things. "

What he said made sense. Everyone else in the dormitory

thought Hu Yihang was dreaming, which is a ver y common
dreaming phenomenon.

Xia Bai said: "I saw him open his eyes, and his eyes kept
moving.

Wa n g M i n g : " H e k e e p s r o l l i n g h i s e y e s , a n d h e c a n' t s e e t h o s e

" I c a n h e a r i t n o w. " "

..."

Zhong Zicang said: "Xia Bai reminded me, where do you think
Hu Yihang's eyes came fro m?" Not just his, but also Liao Manni's
mouth and Feng Sheng's nose. "

Hu Yihang said: "The body teacher said that the essence of

plastic surger y is exchange, which is the optimization and
reorganization of facial features. My eyes are used by the right
person, and the eyes on my face are those of others in the plastic
s u r g e r y m a t e r i a l l i b r a r y, a n d t h a t p e r s o n m a y a l s o u s e t h e m . W h a t
did the eyes look like? "

W h y d o you s a y i t s o n o r ma l l y? A re t h e f a c i a l f e a t u re s

Zicang frowned.

" I d i d n ' t s a y t h a t ! I t ' s a b o d y t e a c h e r. I ' m j u s t r e p e a t i n g i t .

Also, what exactly do you want to ask? "Hu Yihang's voice became
m u c h l o u d e r. H e w a s a l r e a d y a n x i o u s a n d d i d n ' t w a n t t o d i s c u s s
this issue in depth.

"What I want to know is that if the original owner of your eyes

replaced other facial features with them, then the original owner
p r o b a b l y a l s o b e l o n g e d t o t h e p r o g r a m t e a m . Tr a i n e e , i s h e s t i l l
alive? Zhong Zicang said: "According to what the producer said,
they may not be able to survive after being eliminated. For many
of the plastic surger y materials you mentioned, will their original
owners be dead?" Zhong

Zicang's face was serious and his voice was stern: "If their
original owner died, would the ghost still be on the show set or
e l s e w h e re n e a r b y?" D o n ’ t f o rg e t t h a t o u r a u d i e n c e a re a l l g h o s t s .
This is a place where ghosts are common. If they are still there,
will they be resentful or use their five senses to invade
you? Didn’t you say you saw strange people and scenes? "

The dormitory was quiet.

Hu Yihang touched his wide eyes

() and took a step back .

Zhong Zicang's voice sof tened a little, but his words were still
s h a r p , " Yo u d o n ' t w a n t t o g o i n t o d e t a i l s , s o m e o f t h e m a r e

Zicang said.

Xia Bai squatted beside him, put his hands on his bent knees,
and looked at him with a slight cur vature. . His eyes were focused,
and there were still no messy things. They were as clean as when

the world.

When Zhong Zicang saw him for the first time, he felt that he
was someone who wanted to let people know their secrets. Sure
enough, he read it right.

"It is impossible for all difficult games that have not been
cleared to be cleared by the attack team. Sometimes the Game
Management Bureau will issue bounty tasks in the player
communication center and find other players to clear the level."

Zhong Zicang: "..."

That little bit of sadness and frustration was replaced by Xia

B a i ' s " h a p p y g o d " " r u s h e d a w a y.

Sometimes, Zhong Zicang felt that Xia Bai was a weird little
s p i r i t w h o d i d n' t u n d e r s t a n d t h e w o r l d .

" L e t 's g o , i t 's t i m e t o g o h a v e b r e a k f a s t . I f y o u d o n' t g o , y o u

Only then did Xia Bai realize that there were only two of them
left in the practice room. He quickly stood up and had to eat.
 The two of them went to the small canteen two or three
m i n u tes l a te. W h e n t h e y a r r i ved , Wan g Wei a n d Z h a n g R u n y u e h a d
just walked from inside to the door of the canteen.

S e e i n g t h e m , Wan g Wei 's e yes l i t u p .

Xia Bai saw a lunch box and a bottle of milk in her hand. That

"It's good that you guys are here." Zhang Runyue said, "We

Wan g Wei w a l ked u p to h i m a n d p u t i t i n to h i s h a n d ,

"President, please eat some. I believe you will not go for plastic
s u r g e r y. "

The milk in her hand was still warm, warm and hot. If she
received such a milk in school, A bottle of milk may be a common
thing, but here, they are not qualified to drink milk .

Z h o n g Z i c a n g l o o ked a t Wan g Wei , " W h e re d i d you g e t t h e

Zhang Runyue said with a smile: "She exchanged the bracelet

Zhong Zicang was stunned for a moment, then looked down at

Xia Bai and said, "Xia Bai

Xia Bai was still at a loss, "Oh."

Wa n g W e i : " T h a t 's w h y I w o n' t g o f o r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y ! "

Xia Bai: "Ah."

Zhang Runyue looked at this and then looked at this That one,
suppressing a smile, said, "Since ever yone is here, let's go in and
eat."

The four of them walked into the canteen and looked around.

Wan g Wei s a i d : " P re s i d e n t , w h a t you a re d o i n g i s m e a n i n g f u l .

did not go."

The player who originally signed up last night to have plastic

surger y before breakfast today The player was sitting on the west
side of the restaurant eating.

He only glanced at the player and walked inside. Zhang Runyue

Zhong Zicang: "That bracelet."

I n Wan g Wei 's word s U n d e r Wei 's e x p e c t a n t g a z e , Z h o n g Z i c a n g

hesitated, rubbed the warm bottle, and drank the milk.

After being involved in this horror game for nearly a week , he

drank milk for the first time, a bottle of warm milk .

B u t t h i s t i m e , I d o n' t k n o w i f w h a t h e s a i d i s t r u e .

Xia Bai glanced over there and ate his rice.

The atmosphere in the cafeteria this morning was depressing

and anxious.

"Will they go for plastic surger y?"

I t ' s o n e d a y. "

Xia Bai nodded, took out the cream from his pocket, and
applied it while watching them. This morning we were discussing

Noticing Ling Changye looking at him, he raised his head and

said, "Look at me, did I stay up late yesterday to obser ve that Hu

Ling Changye looked at him again, without saying whether he

The skin care exper t looked at the black porcelain bottle again,
smiled with his eyes bent, and put the eye cream in his pocket.

Ya n g M e i : " Yo u p u t i t o n . "

Xia Bai lowered his head: "I'm so embarrassed."

Ya n g M e i w a s c o n f u s e d , " Yo u d o n ' t e v e n f e e l e m b a r r a s s e d w h e n
you put on facial cream, so why do you feel embarrassed when you

Xia Bai: "Because it's stolen goods. ?"

"..."

As Ling Changye said, I originally wanted to have plastic

She said, "I want to be clean."

While they were talking, a trainee who had just undergone

worr y about it. There are no more places for plastic surger y today!
All the people in line were rushed back by the assistant." As

soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the practice

room was different again.

It's one thing to hesitate to do something, but it's another

thing to be hesitant to do it.

" O o p s ! I s h o u l d g o f o r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. W h a t a m I s t r u g g l i n g

" W h a t s h o u l d I d o ? W h a t s h o u l d I d o ? T h e r e's n o c h a n c e ! "

" T h e y w i n b a s e d o n t h e i r l o o k s . W h a t s h o u l d w e d o ? I f w e c a n' t

Z i c a n g a n g r i l y. " I c o u l d h a v e h a d p l a s t i c s u r g e r y ! I h a d a s p o t

took away my spot!"

Z h o n g Z i c a n g s m i l e d a n d s a i d , " S o r r y. "

Wan g Wei re p l i e d a n g r i l y : " E ven i f W i t h o u t t h e p re s i d e n t tel l i n g

you, do you know that no one else will take your place?"
 Soon, another trainee came back , and his place for plastic

have this awareness of how to get along with each other before.
When it comes to life and death interests, they all seem to have
thought of what the producer said. The treatment and benefits
that trainees of different levels receive here are completely
different. .

After hearing that there were no more places, many trainees

w a n t e d t o h a v e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, s o h i g h - l e v e l t r a i n e e s a s ke d l o w -

Those who were robbed of their plastic surger y spots should

have hated the high-level trainees who had robbed them of their
spots, but it seemed that they also hated Zhong Zicang.

T h e t w o g i r l s w a n t e d t o c o m f o r t Z h o n g Z i c a n g , b u t t h e y d i d n' t

Human beings are like this. When they are panicked and helpless,
they will always find someone to complain to."

He was not forcing a smile . , as if he really didn’t care.

S e e i n g t h i s , t h e t w o g i r l s b r e a t h e d a s i g h o f r e l i e f.

Xia Bai was curious, had Zhong Zicang thought about this when
he called everyone together in the morning.

He must have thought of it, that's why he was so calm.

B y n i n e o' c l o c k i n t h e e v e n i n g , a t o t a l o f e l e v e n t r a i n e e s h a d

level trainees, and two high-level trainees.
 That night, more than half of the trainees were awake. The

The studio was the same as the last time they came, except for
the judges, there were only twenty

The producer looked a little excited, "Dear trainees, the first

solo performance assessment is finally about to begin. How are
you preparing for your performance?"

soon as he finished speaking, the four walls surrounded him.

Four familiar big screens appeared again. Seeing these big screens

There is indeed a ghost inside.

[Ah, ah, my spiritual food, how can I survive 404 without

He said a lot, "I learned a girl group dance this week , I hope you

With his awesome skills, careful makeup, and dancing with

He held a plain white hard-cover book and read a memorial

speech in front of a black cur tain.

His voice was a little low to begin with, but it was rare for him
to be sincere. He slowly mourned the death of his son, and vividly
expressed the grief of a father with white hair and a son with

Players from the Holy Journey Guild and the Banyue Group were
also surprised. How could Ling Changye perform so... It was
ordinar y to him. They had high expectations for Ling Changye, but

staff ? Qionglu is out of skills?

The bald man smiled mockingly and excitedly when he first

star ted to read the memorial speech.

Ling Changye usually looked confident and calm, but he

thought Ling Changye had some wonderful performance.

He might get an F and be eliminated.

said that he was a hidden ace.

Many trainees have question marks on their faces.

I played the suona and this time I used my breath to read the
memorial speech, which moved the ghosts very much.

Only Xia Bai was dumbfounded and knew what was going on.

The player looked at him dressed as a father and read a

memorial speech for his son. He just thought that he reminded the

"dads" appearing on the screen.

Ling Changye also got a B in the player's confusion.

Next came Shi Danfeng and Liu Qiang. They both had skills and
performed a similar show with the same skills as last time.
H o w e v e r, S h i D a n f e n g g o t a D a n d B a l d h e a d g o t a n E , b o t h o f
which were one level lower than the first stage.

Sure enough, as the producer said, the ratings are stricter this
time.

Producer : "Next, Liao Manni."

The first person to undergo plastic surger y came on stage.

All players stared at her and the barrage.

 L i a o M a n n i w a l k e d o n t o t h e s t a g e c o n f i d e n t l y, s h o w i n g a
standard sweet smile to the judges and the big screen. She no
longer had the stiffness of the first stage, "Hello ever yone, I will
dance a folk dance for you tonight."

[Wow! She has made great progress! ]

[ Ye s , y o u h a v e a n i c e m o u t h . ]

Xia Bai's hear t skipped a beat. He knew that Liao Manni would
definitely be able to pass the solo assessment. Most people who
undergo plastic surger y can pass the solo assessment as long as
their performance is qualified.

The advantage gained by players who undergo plastic surger y

is not just appearance, which accounts for 60%.

And the par ts themselves that they acquired through plastic

surger y

Those are the body par ts of a dead person. For players, having

H e h a s a l r e a d y c o n f i r m e d t h e g h o s t a u d i e n c e's l o v e f o r c o r p s e s
through the first stage. Ling Changye compared the corpse to the
home that ghosts want.

Players have dead people, which are excellent par ts of the

corpse. In addition to increasing the appearance, it will also
increase the likeability of the ghosts. The likeability will directly

Sure enough, under the strict scoring standards, Liao Manni's

performance did not improve much, but she still got an E.

knees were hur ting.

so shocked that they forgot to breathe.

assessment, the next person to take the stage is Sun Lijie."

Sun Lijie is a pretty good-looking male player with a pair of

ver y bright and beautiful eyes. According to his results, he is the
t h i r d p e r s o n t o t a k e t h e s t a g e i n t h e m i d d l e g r o u p . m a l e p l a y e r,

After a series of wonderful performances or good-looking

presentation, he was the first player who was not a top-notch
g r o u p p l a y e r t o t a k e t h e s t a g e w i t h o u t p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. , i t c a n b e
seen that he is a little nervous.

As he becomes ner vous, his vivid facial features will become

awkward and cramped, or even slightly deformed and become
u g l y. A t t h e s a m e t i m e , t h e u b i q u i t o u s s t r o n g l i g h t s o n t h e s t a g e
will amplify all this.

[Expression management: 0 points. 】

[I'm used to seeing eye-catching things, but something

suddenly comes.]

Seeing the barrage, Sun Lijie became even more ner vous, and
he was shaking with nervousness.

This tension is ver y empathetic to the trainees. This is a direct

matter of life and death. The barrage It was almost a death
sentence for him.

Imagine that he was standing on the stage at this time, and he

was already out of breath.

But on the trainee stage, which emphasizes expression

management, you must not be nervous. Serious nervousness is
a l s o a s e l f - d e a t h . D e a t h p e n a l t y.

Sun Lijie tried his best to smile, but burst into tears.

M a n y t r a i n e e s l o o k e d a w a y. S o m e w e r e t o o n e r v o u s , a f r a i d o f

the ending. .

Sun Lijie played two roles and performed a sketch. He

was so ner vous and performed the sketch with tears in his eyes.
The effect can be imagined.

His trembling movements on the stage were helpless, and

ever yone could hear his heavy intermittent breathing. His voice
had obvious vibrato and cr ying, and he forgot his lines several
times... This was a frightening tor ture for the other trainees
watching.

I n t h e e n d , h e c o u l d n' t h o l d i t a n y m o r e , a n d g a v e u p a m i d t h e
curses on the four screens. He collapsed and cried.

The three judges sat in front in silence and gloom, and the
studio suddenly became so quiet that it was hard to breathe.

All F's were written on the ba rrage.

" D o n' t , d o n' t , l e t m e g o , p l e a s e . " H e s t o o d o n t h e s t a g e a n d

k o w t o w e d t o t h e t h r e e j u d g e s a n d t h e b i g s c r e e n , " I d o n' t w a n t t o
die! Please, please..."

The three judges remained silent, like corpses that had been
dead for many years.

They sat or stood behind the judges and could not see the
judges' expressions. They only saw that Sun Lijie did not get a
response from the judges and began to run away on the stage.

He ran in a state of collapse, as if he could not escape from all

d i r e c t i o n s . F.

A hole formed by two F's facing each other appeared in the

middle of the stage. In a panic, he fell directly into a hole. It
seemed like a vacuum zone, absorbing all sounds and expelling
only blood.

With so much blood, it was probably a Ever ything that a person

has.

It turns out that all the blood of one person cannot cover the
stage.!
 Chapter 49

The sound of heavy and ner vous breathing lingered in his ears.
Standing in the fro nt ro w of the lower gro up of trainees, Xia Bai
saw that many middle and lower group trainees were trembling
a n d t h e i r f a c e s w e r e a s w h i t e a s p a p e r.

This is the first player to die on stage.

This is the first time they face the consequences of being

eliminated and see the death of the eliminated person.

In fact, they did not see the specific process. They only saw
Sun Lijie running away in panic. They only saw him fall into a
strange hole and all his blood was drained out.

But there was too much blood, and the studio was filled with a
strong smell of blood. His breaths flowed down his nose and
m o u t h i n t o h i s t i g h t b o d y, c a u s i n g h i m t o r e t c h i n g i n w a v e s .

【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ]

[Dead, dead, hahahahaha! 】

【So much blood, so excited. 】

【Ah ah ah, my blood is starting to boil too! My feeling must

be right! ]

[Keep going! do not stop! 】

The excited barrage made them even more frightened. It was as

if they really saw through these barrage the ferocious evil spirits
worming their way towards the screen, tr ying to eat their flesh
and blood.

" D o n' t b e n e r v o u s , d o n' t b e n e r v o u s . "

Xia Bai heard Zhong Zicang next to him constantly softly

comfor ting the people around him. He knew that as long as he was
nervous on this stage, it would be the end. Nervousness was fatal.
 H o w e v e r, i t i s d i f f i c u l t n o t t o b e n e r v o u s i n s u c h a n

y o u b e c o m e . T h i s i s t h e b i g g e s t t e s t o f a p e r s o n ' s m e n t a l i t y.

He heard a small sobbing sound that lasted only a few seconds

before disappearing.

Wan g Wei w a s b i t i n g t h e ba c k of h e r h a n d h a rd to s u p p re s s t h e
sounds in her mouth, but the trembling of her body could not be
stopped by biting the back of her hand.

She slowly stopped trembling, and she looked up at Zhong

Z i c a n g b e s i d e h e r. H e r m o i s t e y e s w e r e a l i t t l e d a z e d , b u t t h e y
were bright.

Seeing this, Xia Bai looked down and saw Zhong Zicang holding
Wan g Wei 's h a n d .

He held her hand and she stopped shaking.

Xia Bai looked at it for several seconds, and her body felt a
little warm. She raised her head and continued to look at the
stage.

The producer wasted no time and said in a deep voice:

" U n f o r t u n a t e l y, S u n L i j i e f a i l e d t o p a s s t h e a s s e s s m e n t a n d w a s

my attention to the next trainee, Song Chenkai."

The stage was not even cleared and the next trainee was
allowed to go up.

When they looked carefully at the blood on the stage, they

found that there was much less blood on the stage and had
seeped under the stage.

Even though it was a lot less, there was still a large amount of
blood on the stage. I had just seen the death of my companion,
and stepping on his blood at the place where he died, how could I
not be nervous.
 Song Chenkai is the only volunteer from Heping Medical
College in the secondar y group.

T h e y a l l l o o ked u p a t h i m , m o s t l y e n c o u r a g i n g . Per h a p s w h e n
he saw the blood and evil ghosts lingering in the horror studio,
and a group of companions encouraging him, he felt more at ease.

Song Chenkai also looked at them. His hands were tightly

holding the middle line of his pants. His eyes passed through each
of his classmates and finally landed on Xia Bai.

S e e i n g t h a t h e d i d n' t s a y a n y t h i n g , t h e p r o d u c e r a s k e d : " S o n g

Song Chenkai glanced at the barrage (), and his voice suddenly

he wanted to perform a corpse burial.

Even what Song Chenkai said just now was what Xia Bai said

They all knew that Xia Bai's per formance was encoffining. Xia
Bai told them as soon as he decided. At that time, Ling Changye
said that the show was good, so he no longer worried about Xia
Bai.

But , according to the pro gram team's differential treatment of

different trainees, they will agree to give the props of the lower
trainee Xia Bai to the middle trainee Song Chenkai. Xia Bai has
never thought about other programs. What program can he think
of at the moment? Ner vous, just make do with an ordinar y

He still remembered that that night, the two A bus drove out
from Heping Medical College and stopped outside the university
town. Zhong Zicang told them the real situation in Quanguang

under their control, the students in the three rescue vehicles all
chose to come to the rescue.

 All the volunteers in this game were people who had made firm
choices twice before. They were all people who touched his hear t
and made him look up, including Song Chenkai.

doesn’t seem surprising that people would make another choice.

He knew it was a game.

It is the game that is distorting the once shining soul. It is the

game that likes to study and test human nature again and again.

The producer asked Song Chenkai: "Do you really want to use
the corpse we prepared for your performance?"

" Ye s ! " S o n g C h e n k a i s t e p p e d o n t h e b l o o d o f a t r a i n e e a n d s a i d

was normal for him to use the props of an inferior trainee, and it
was nothing impor tant. "Bring the prepared body here."

to all the staff for your hard work ."

He saw that ever ything was going well in the barrage, and he
became even more excited, and his hands were shaking with
excitement.

He survived.

His guess was correct. Xia Bai's pro gram was indeed ver y
popular among ghost viewers. At that time, when he first heard
about Xia Bai's pro gram, he thought it was ver y good. The more
he thought about it, the better it became. It could be said to be
the best among non-skilled programs and he would definitely pass
the assessment.

Even though he knew ver y well, he had never had the idea of
plagiarism before

of his feet. , from bottom to top, blood rushed into his head,
giving him this idea.

He took two years of anatomy experimental classes at Heping

Medical College, and also practiced with a teacher in the hospital
for such a long time. As a freshman, he must be fine if he is ready
to be buried.

He knew that encoffining was the restoration of the corpse. In

simple terms, it was the sewing and beautification of the corpse.
He would be fine with the sewing. He had faced so many anatomy

Xia Bai was just a freshman,

how could he challenge such an extreme limit and commit

suicide?

He finally under s tood why Xia Bai's eyes were so quiet.

【What's the meaning? Are you kidding us? ]

[What are you doing? My expectations have been raised so high

and you're not going to per form again? 】

【He must be buried for me! 】

The producer also said: "I have just confirmed with you, the
props have been brought up, you have to perform this, and you
are not a trainee in the upper group, you do not have a chance to
do it again. ()"

Song Chenkai stiffened He stood there, feeling at a loss when

What Xia Bai repor ted was the broken corpse.

At that time, Zhong Zicang asked him to play it safe and repor t

only give him something worse than he thought.

corpses. The joy of having a clean home is proof of that.

Therefore, he was sure that he would be buried in pieces.

Others may not be able to do it. Encoffining and dissection are

still different. Even if you have studied at Heping Medical College,
you may not be able to encr ypt corpses with many problems.

Everyone knows what Xia Bai is going to perform. His

 () props are still there, but his performance is no longer new to
the audience.

Xia Bai: "Judges and audience Good afternoon, the program I

will perform for you is Encoffinment. "

[Laughing to death, here comes another entombment.]

were not only timid, but also ver y gentle, as if he was not facing
the terrifying body fragments, but the body of a loved one with
warmth. As the human body became complete, his clear eyes even

down. The direction of the barrage had already changed, but no
one seemed to notice.

of home. The gentle wife and mother were the first things that
popped up when a person thought of home.

ever ything related to the skill.

If in a game, he sees a player mobilizing and using skills, he

can copy the player's skills and use them freely at any time. If he
feels that this skill is not useful in the game at that time, 24
hours later , he can copy it with another player and use it with
another skill.

If he does not see the player using the skill, but only sees the
results after the player uses the skill, he can also directly copy the
player's results. It is not so flexible, but if the opponent is
accumulation type Skills can be used directly with less effor t.

Therefore, once he encounters a player using a skill, or sees a

player who has used a skill, a layer of dark blue light will appear
in his eyes. The blue light represents that he is analyzing and
replicating others. skills, which also meant that that was when he
w a t c h e d t h e m o s t s e r i o u s l y.

They all knew that Xia Bai had no skills.

That day when they were in the ward and reciting the copy of

was when he saw the corpses in the movie being destroyed and
dismembered.

In addition to a soul skill re-engraving, Ling Changye also has a

speculated He had been dismembered and endured the most
painful death alone at the bottom of the sea before he acquired
such a heaven-defying skill.

The last dungeon at the Or thopedic Hospital was par ticularly

difficult for them. Ling Changye had to take care of it. In the end,
he was also dismembered by the medical demon in that hospital
again and did not respond for a long time.

It was Xia Bai who picked him up bit by bit from the mountain
of corpses and sea of blood, and sewed him up like this.

On the stage, the corpse has taken shape.

From a bucket of blood to a complete corpse, this is a strange

and magical thing, and it even makes people paradoxically think
of the magic of nature.

It's not the magic of nature, but the magic of Xia Bai's hands.

He took a wet towel and wiped away the dirt on the body bit by

eyes, and every movement was gentle and powerful.
 Grandpa also wondered why he was not afraid of dead bodies
at all.

away from for the rest of his life.

There was no trace of acting on his par t, ever ything was

instinctive, even the smile at the end was not a successful
expression management.

A white chrysanthemum is placed on the heart. The person

under his hand seems to have just died, or died in a sweet dream,
without being run over by a car or experiencing pain.

The barrage is filled with A and B.

Looking at those A's and the text ba rrage that had not
appeared for a long time, all players knew that he had become the
favorite, maybe even respected boy of the ghosts.

Xia Bai's final grade was also B. He could have gone for an A ,

 Chapter 50

In a square studio of about 100 square meters, once the door is

closed, the four walls are completely covered by large screens,
which are full of ghost words and cruel words, surrounding a
bloody stage. Under the gazes of the three judges and the ghosts,
The trainees stepped on layers of blood, some pretended to have
the facial features of dead people, and some cut open their own
skills, tr ying their best to make them laugh and pray for their own
sur vival.

In the end, there were only 12 trainees left in the lower group.

Xia Bai, Zhong Zicang, Zhang Runyue and the four plastic
surgeons passed the examination. Of the remaining 17 people,
only 5 completed their creative programs under high pressure and
passed the assessment.

The remaining 12 people all died, including 5 volunteers.

Including Song Chenkai from the middle group, there were 12

volunteers here, 6 died, and only 6 remained.

A drop of blood was spattered on his mouth. When he smiled, the

After the four screens disappeared, all the exhausted trainees

they seemed to have a lot of it on their bodies, but the ner ves
that had been tense for five or six hours finally relaxed.

The legs of several trainees from the lower group who had been
standing up suddenly went limp. They supported each other to
prevent them from collapsing in front of the three judges.

The producer took the list and began to announce the results
of this assessment: "For this single assessment performance, there
a r e t h r e e p e o p l e i n B g r a d e , n a m e l y Ya n g M e i , L i n g C h a n g y e a n d

grade, Shi Danfeng . Congratulations to the above trainees."

"The remaining 21 trainees are all E-levels. I hope these

trainees will continue to work hard. After all, all E-level trainees
will be eliminated in the next single assessment, and the ratings
will be more stringent next time."

Just in High Pressure The trainee who was able to breathe

suddenly became in pain again. He was so depressed that he
c o u l d n' t b r e a t h e .

"At present, all members of the upper group have passed, and
there are still 7 people. 6 people have been eliminated from the
middle group, and 7 people are left. 12 people have been
eliminated from the lower group, and 12 people are left."

" W e w i l l h a v e a t e a m c o m p e t i t i o n n e x t S u n d a y. W e ’ l l d i s c u s s

This may be the only bit of warmth the program team has
s h o w n s o f a r. N o s p e c i f i c c o m p e t i t i o n a n d s c o r i n g r u l e s w e r e

None of them had lunch, but the restaurant was not open at
this time. Many trainees were exhausted and had no strength to
go out. They sat directly in the studio and stared at the blood-
stained stage. There were also a few who never wanted to smell
this place again. With the smell of blood, he dragged his tired
body to the nearby practice room.

" B r o t h e r X i a B a i , y o u p e r f o r m e d s o w e l l t o d a y. " Ya n g M e i c a m e
to Xia Bai's side and praised him without hesitation, "Both the
captain and I were dumbfounded."

Xia Bai turned to look at Ling Changye, who said:

"Congratulations ."

Xia Bai stared at him and said in surprise: "Are you still
dumbfounded?"

L i n g C h a n g y e s m i l e d , " H e's t a l k i n g n o n s e n s e . "

Xia Bai probably thought that her not going for plastic surger y
had something to do with what he said about it.

just born in the most difficult place of death, and withered before
he could express it.

This bracelet that will never go back is the most meaningful to

give to Zhong Zicang.

Xia Bai looked at the bracelet and quickly figured out that he
was a ver y indifferent person, but he had returned to normal when
he took the bracelet to find Zhong Zicang.

He handed the bracelet to Zhong Zicang. This is a star and

moon bracelet, with a moon in the middle and small yellow
diamond stars on both sides, shining with little bits of light.
Zhong Zicang holds it in his broad hand, as if he is holding the
l i g h t o f t h e g a l a x y.

Zhong Zicang sat on the floor of the practice room, staring at

the bracelet with his lowered eyes, the emotion in his eyes
u n c l e a r.

 Because he is really a good president and cares about his
classmates.

H o w e v e r, h e m u s t r e m e m b e r t h e b o t t l e o f h o t m i l k .

After Xia Bai got the B grade, he had a separate room and took
a hot bath in his room. Only then did the bloody smell of the
studio really leave him.

A f t e r t a k i n g a s h o w e r, t h e y w e n t t o h a v e d i n n e r. I t w a s a t a c i t

during the meal. It was a rare time to breathe.

The few voices in the restaurant were all talking about things

Seeing Xia Bai looking at them, they not only did not hide it,
but also came to their table with the photo, said a few words

before looking at Ling Changye.

Ling Changye shook his head, and Xia Bai was stunned again
after hearing this.

This reminded Xia Bai that now was a good time for him to ask

two is the captain of the attack team, and the other is a player
who has entered the game many times and ranks first in the points
rankings. Even the president of the Half Moon Group is looking for
them. How can he waste such a good resource?

A f t e r d i n n e r, X i a B a i i n v i t e d t h e t w o o f t h e m i n t o h i s r o o m .

Ling Changye asked directly: "If you have anything you want to

" Ye s ! I h a v e s e e n i t ! " Ya n g M e i s a i d e x c i t e d l y.

Xia Bai immediately looked at him, "Where is it?"

Ya n g M e i : " H u a H a o m i n g ' s p l a c e , h e s a i d h e b o u g h t i t f r o m a
fool!"

Xia Bai: "..."

 One hundred thousand yuan a piece is indeed a bargain. .

He looked at Ling Changye again, and Ling Changye shook his

h e a d , " I h a v e n' t s e e n i t f r o m a n y o n e e l s e . W h o s e i s t h i s ? "

The last time he lied to him was exposed, Xia Bai was honest
t h i s t i m e a n d d i d n' t h i d e i t a n y m o r e , t e l l i n g h i m t h a t h i s
g r a n d f a t h e r s t i l l h a d t h e G o d o f J o y. t o l d t h e m a b o u t i t .

"If your grandfather is the god of joy brought out of the game,
then he is definitely not simple. The Game Management Bureau
should have records of such people. It is a bit strange that there
is no record at all." Ling Changye said.

X i a B a i : " M y g r a n d f a t h e r i s v e r y l o w - k e y. H e h a s a l w a y s l i v e d i n

This can be said.

Ling Changye nodded, slowly stroking the corpse-suppressing

brought out the God of Joy in the game, since he can bring it out
alive, it means that the game has been cleared and there is no way

Xia Bai sat on the bed, a little disappointed.

L i n g C h a n g y e s a t o n t h e s o f a a n d d i d n' t s a y m u c h .

He knew that Xia Bai should have thought of this, but he just
d i d n' t w a n t t o a c c e p t i t .

Ling Changye glanced at him. Xia Bai lowered his head and sat
beside the bed. His face showed the blankness that his soul was
not at home, but when his soul ran away from home, there was a
trace of sadness at home, suppressing his eyelashes and leaving a
s h a d o w.
 Ling Changye looked at it for two more seconds under the
s h a d o w o f h i s e y e l a s h e s , " T h e r e i s a n o t h e r p o s s i b i l i t y. T h e y a r e

no longer there. The game makes the best use of things, which
may bring them to In other games."

"Huh? Maybe they are working in other game worlds?" Xia Bai
immediately raised his head.

Ling

Xia Bai took out the family tree and said, "There are no photos,
but I drew por traits of them. Look ." "

..."

X i a B a i t o l d Ya n g M e i a b o u t h i s f a m i l y h i s t o r y. Ya n g M e i w a s

Ling Changye played with the ring on his hand and said without
looking ba ck : "It's just because it's hard for you to die that you

Ling Changye turned his head in the middle of the night and
l o o k e d a t h i m w i t h a s m i l e , " Ye s . "

When he said "yes", it was the same as saying he was willing to

go drinking with Xia Bai.

Ya n g M e i : " S u r e e n o u g h , i t d o e s n ' t w e i g h a n y t h i n g a t a l l . "

game. Xia Bai touched his phone with a dull expression. He just
signed the captain of the offensive team and the two big guys who
topped the rankings?

They said a few more words, Then they went back to their
rooms.

Xia Bai stared at the two prepared corpses in the game app for
a long time, then clicked on the chat software. After entering the
game on his phone, there was no internet connection, so he could
only open the game app.

Xia Bai thought about it Thinking about it, he took out a

treasure.

After Ling Changye took a bath and was about to lie down on
the bed, his movements suddenly stopped.

He lowered his eyes without changing his expression and saw a

gray-purple ghost hand stretching out from under the bed. , the
cold breath forced goosebumps to form on his ankles.

Just when the weapon was about to be drawn out, the ghost
hand opened, revealing a small note inside.

"..."

Ling Changye picked up the note and it read: "Effective. "

He knew what was working.

He found the pen and wrote back the word "well".

be that happy in this game. Ling

Changye was stunned for a moment, and after a few minutes he

replied: "Is it possible to be happy when you play mourning music
for the first time and read a memorial speech for the second
time?" "

Ling Changye stared at the note for a long time and replied: "I
learned it by chance. "

Xia Bai also stared at the note for a while. Ling Changye often

Feng Sheng kept sniffling in his sleep. In the dream, his mother

flowers the most. "

All The trainees got up to the ringing of the bell and ended
their shor t break .

[All trainees are asked to gather in the studio.]

On the way to the studio, Xia Bai was bumped by Hu Yihang. Hu

No." Ling Changye shook his head, "He should know the studio,
but it feels unfamiliar to him." "

The three of them deliberately slowed down and obser ved the

Xia Bai thought of Zhong Zicang's words about ghosts using

the five senses to invade, "It was the vision of the owner of the
eyes that replaced Hu Yihang's vision. Hu Yihang's head is now
full of things that his eyes saw in the past, but what he saw in the
past is no longer there?"

"That's not right." Before Ling Changye could speak , Xia Bai
denied his guess, "According to our guess, the facial features on
their faces are probably from the former trainees. The former
trainees were ver y fond of the studio. Are you unfamiliar? Are you
so confused about the smell of perfume?"

L i n g C h a n g y e : " T h e p r o d u c e r i s h e r e , g o i n f i r s t a n d t a l k l a t e r. "

Just like last Monday morning, they gathered in the studio to

talk about this week's competition.

The producer is still standing among the judges. On the left is

the talent instructor with impeccable appearance and smile, and
on the right is the physique instructor holding a blood whip.

" T h e f i r s t t e a m c o m p e t i t i o n w i l l b e h e l d t h i s S u n d a y. L e t m e
talk about the rules of the competition first. The team
competition is held between three groups. Ever y trainee in the
t h r e e g r o u p s m u s t p a r t i c i p a t e . T h e y a r e d i v i d e d i n t o u p p e r, m i d d l e
and lower groups. The equal groups will perform on the stage in
turn. Af ter each gro up's per formance, the judges and the audience
will score the gro up's per formance. Af ter the three gro ups'
p e r f o r m a n c e s , n e w u p p e r, m i d d l e a n d l o w e r g r o u p s w i l l b e c r e a t e d
based on the scores."

"I have already mentioned the elimination rules for the three
groups before. The new lower group will eliminate the bottom 30%
of the group and no less than two trainees, the middle group will
eliminate 10% and no less than one trainee, and the upper group
will eliminate No need to eliminate."

"As for the scoring criteria for the team competition, the basics
a r e a p p e a r a n c e a n d t a l e n t . N e e d l e s s t o s a y, a p p e a r a n c e s t i l l
a c c o u n t s f o r 6 0 % . Ta l e n t i s t h e s c o r e f o r y o u r g r o u p ' s p r o g r a m . I
believe you have already seen it this time. Including the creativity
of the program, the completeness of the performance, the team
competition and the cooperation of the group, etc." After

the producer explained the rules and arrangements, he asked as

bef ore : "Do you h a ve a ny ques tions a bout th is Sunda y 's ga me?"

A A trainee from the lower group asked: "If our group is third
in the team competition, or is it still the lower group, 30% is 3.6
people. How many people will be eliminated?"

Producer : "Rounding up, four will be eliminated. ."

"After the trainees at the end of the group are eliminated, how
are they ranked at the end? In the group competition, are there
individual votes or ratings?"

Producer : "This is a good question. It is indeed. A large par t of

the results in the team competition is It is a summar y of the
individual results. There is no doubt that 60% of the results are
appearance, and the remaining 40% of the talent will be
considered for the teamwork effect." "

S o , b a s i c a l l y, w h e n y o u r t e a m r e s u l t s a r e r e l e a s e d , t h e
individual results will also be released. In addition, the audience
love I mentioned before will also be reflected in the results. At
the end of the program, the audience will

select their favorite three trainees based on your live

performance, etc., and each exercise One vote for each student.
The individual appearance score and the number of votes received
are the only two factors that affect the elimination order within
the group."

A l l t h e t r a i n e e s w e r e s t u n n e d . T h e p r o d u c e r d i d n' t k n o w w h y,
and what he said was more complicated, but after analysis, the
team competition The scoring criteria can be summed up in one
point: appearance is more impor tant.

" S i n g l e a p p e a r a n c e" f i r s t d i r e c t l y a f f e c t s t h e g r o u p r e s u l t s
when aggregated. At the same time, it is a single determining
factor in the fatal elimination order that trainees are most
concerned about. This is not just that, in fact, it also indirectly
affects the "audience likeability ". "It's hard for the audience not
to be affected by appearance when they cast their vote.
 " T h e n t h e t a l e n t s h o w. . . "

the producer interrupted the trainee who spoke out, "the talent
show accounts for 40% of your gro up's per formance. At the same
t i m e , t h e a u d i e n c e's v o t i n g i s b a s e d o n y o u r l i v e p e r f o r m a n c e .
I s n' t i t m a i n l y a b o u t y o u r t a l e n t p e r f o r m a n c e ? ? "

Thinking they are fools.

O n l y Ya n g M e i d i d n ' t h e a r i t . H e s a i d i t w a s s o c o m p l i c a t e d j u s t
to make the increase in the actual propor tion of appearance sound
rational, right?

"If there are no problems, you can go prepare for the group
performance." The producer said, closing the door to their doubts.

The rules of the game cannot be changed by them, so the

trainees went back to their respective training rooms helplessly
a n d a n g r i l y. T h e l o w e r a n d m i d d l e g r o u p s a r e p a r t i c u l a r l y h e a v y -
handed. They all know that they will be eliminated in these two
groups.

In the practice room of the lower group, Zhong Zicang

organized ever yone as before, "In the morning, let's fir s t think
about whether there are any good program ideas. After breakfast,
w e w i l l d i s c u s s i t t o g e t h e r. I t i s b e s t t o d e c i d e o n t h e p r o g r a m
before lunch and star t training in the afternoon. ."

H e w a s s t i l l s t e a d i l y b o o s t i n g e v e r y o n e's m o r a l e , " I k n o w t h a t
the upper group is ver y strong, but the individual assessment has
proven that there is not much difference between us and the
m i d d l e g r o u p . N o t c o u n t i n g p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, o u r e l i m i n a t i o n r a t e i s
lower than theirs, so, We have a high chance of at least surpassing
them and becoming the middle group, so that we can eliminate
three less people."

At this time, ever yone had no objections and wanted to

cooperate well and practice the program well, but things changed
after breakfast.

While eating breakfast, they noticed that the two E-level

trainees from the intermediate group were not here. When they
inquired, they found out that they were actually going to the
b o d y b u i l d i n g t e a c h e r f o r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y r i g h t n o w, i n c l u d i n g o n e

"How can this compare?" Even Zhang Runyue, who had always
been emotionally stable, was a little unable to hold back .

I w e n t f o r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y o n M o n d a y. A r e t h e y j u s t s t u c k i n t h i s
game together?

Zhong Zicang acted ver y calmly: "The new rules of the team
competition have increased the impor tance of appearance. It's not
surprising that they did this."

Zhang Runyue: "But, it is obvious that there is something

w r o n g w i t h t h e p e o p l e w h o h a v e u n d e r g o n e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d
they are still so impa tient. It's better to have plastic surger y

than to die." Zhong Zicang seemed to have turned away from

p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. " T h e s o l o p e r f o r m a n c e a s s e s s m e n t h a s p r o v e n t h a t
plastic surger y can save lives. How many people in the studio

oppor tunity may be snatched away by high-level trainees in a few
days."

Zhang Runyue turned to look at Zhong Zicang, admiring him for

being able to analyze this calmly at this time.

S e e i n g t h a t e v e r y o n e o n l y c a r e d a b o u t p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, Z h o n g
Zicang thought for a while and asked Hu Yihang directly: "Are you
willing to tell ever yone what the sequelae of your plastic surger y
are?"

This is something that all the players in the lower group are
concerned about, and now they are unified. , all looked at Hu
Yihang.

Hu Yihang looked at Zhong Zicang a little confused.

 Zhong Zicang: "Are you unfamiliar with me? Do you still know
who I am?"

Hu Yihang nodded, sitting in the corner looking a little scared.

Zhong Zicang obser ved him and asked warmly: "Are you
forgetting something?"

Hu Yihang nodded again.

Zhong Zicang continued to ask: "Can you tell us, your

classmates and par tners, before you forget ever ything, what are
the sequelae and what are the specific conditions?"

Hu Yihang came from Heping Medical College. A volunteer who

c a m e t o t h e T V s t a t i o n f o r r e s c u e . H i s e y e s w e r e a l i t t l e g l o o m y.
He was not a calm person. He was the one who questioned Zhong
Z i c a n g f o r t h e f i r s t t i m e i n t h e d o r m i t o r y. H e t o l d Z h o n g Z i c a n g
that plastic surger y was his own business and that Zhong Zicang
did not need it. He is also in charge.

A f t e r p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, h e h a d a p a i r of s m i l i n g e y e s , a n d h e
successfully passed the single-person assessment. He became
dazed and quiet, a little lost, and subconsciously looked for
people he was familiar with.

Zhong Zicang: "Can you tell us?"

H e s a i d : " Ye s . "

Before giving details, he said inexplicably: "My name is Hu

Yihang."

E v e r y o n e a r o u n d w a s s t u n n e d , a n d X i a B a i s a i d : " Yo u r n a m e i s
Hu Yihang ."

Hu Yihang looked at Xia Bai for a while, and then said: "It was
confusing at first, and my memory was a bit confusing."

He took out a small book from his pocket with his records on
it, "Look , I wrote , my memor y was confused on the first night.
This is what I summarized the next morning. The confusion was all
w h a t I s a w a n d w h a t m y e y e s s a w. "

H u Y i h a n g r e a l i z e d t h e r e w a s a p r o b l e m t h e n e x t d a y. H e w a s
afraid that his mind would It was confusing and I couldn’t
remember it, so I wrote it down in a small notebook .

[I don’t know if I forgot or if I suddenly disappeared, like a

puzzle piece of myself falling apar t bit by bit, ever ything related

[Since these eyes were installed in my eye sockets, they are

absorbing, they are swallowing,

ever y thing about me "seeing ()", my soul is going to be

s w a l l o w e d b y i t , I a m a b o u t t o l o s e m y s e l f. 】

The trainees looked at his beautiful eyes again, feeling chills in

their hearts.

So, these eyes are devouring ever ything Hu Yihang has to say
about seeing? ()_[(()"?

H u m a n m e m o r y , e v e n t h e s e l f, h a s t o o m a n y t h i n g s r e l a t e d t o

When everything he sees will be swallowed up by these dead eyes,
what will he have lef t?

They understood that Hu Yihang started Why do you say he is

Hu Yihang?

He is afraid that if he is completely devoured, he may not be

him anymore.

"Then Liao Manni changed her mouth, who is she?" A trainee

a s k e d a n d a n s w e r e d h i m s e l f, " S h e w a s d e v o u r e d b y t h a t d e a d

Another trainee said: "Feng Sheng changed his nose, and what
he was swallowed It's ever y thing related to "smell"."

"Smell" is also an impor tant par t of life.

They looked at the other three people in the practice room who
h a d u n d e r g o n e p l a s t i c s u r g e r y. S o m e o f t h e m w e r e s i l e n t , a n d

It turns out that this is the essence of plastic surger y

e x c h a n g e , e x c h a n g i n g t h e i n n e r s e l f f o r e x t e r n a l b e a u t y. T h e

lower training room was silent.

 Zhong Zicang looked at them one by one, "Do you still want to

"How to win? In the middle group, two people have already

Zhong Zicang did the same thing again. This time he obtained
Hu Yihang's permission and showed all the trainees the small
notebook he recorded, and spread out the results of plastic
s u r g e r y t o t h e m . T h e y d i d n' t

allow them not to believe it. As long as he confirms with the

p l a y e r s i n t h e s a m e g r o u p w h o h a v e h a d p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, h e c a n
confirm that he is not an alarmist.

() In the afternoon they were finally able to calm down a little

and discuss their game program.

Before star ting, Zhong Zicang said: "Let me explain first that
the program is related to the life and death of each of us. If you
have good program ideas, you cannot tell people outside the
group. ()"

He was war y of Xia Bai's pro gram ideas being plagiarized. It

happened again.

He took out a piece of shimmering paper that he had prepared

in advance, and it said on it that no creative ideas in the group
could be spread outside. This is a contract item I bought from the
game mall. If you agree, ever yone will be on it one by one. Sign, if
you violate the contract, you will be punished by the game. ()"

M a n y t r a i n e e s s i g n e d i m m e d i a t e l y, b u t t w o t r a i n e e s w e r e
hesitant.

Z h o n g Z i c a n g s a i d : " I f y o u d o n' t s i g n a n d d o n' t c a r e a b o u t t h e

The two players still signed.

After signing, Zhong Zicang and many trainees breathed a sigh

o f r e l i e f. T h e y c o u l d d i s c u s s w i t h c o n f i d e n c e a n d e x p r e s s t h e i r
thoughts without reser vation.

be used this time? Let's add some things that the ghost audience
would like to see? "

A trainee said: "Can Xia Bai perform the coffin performance

again? This is absolutely amazing. "

Zhong Zicang shook his head, "I've already performed it, and
t h e e f f e c t w o n' t b e a s g o o d i f I t r y i t a g a i n . L e t ’s t h i n k a b o u t w h y
ghost viewers like to be buried so much, and we can expand in
this direction. "

Zhang Runyue: "Then Xia Bai, your performance of the burial

really touched their hear ts. "

X i a B a i n o d d e d i m p o l i t e l y.

"This direction is too impor tant. Zhong Zicang said happily:

"How can we use this direction?"

A volunteer named Tian Sihan said: "We must do what they

want and prepare a lot of corpses. " "

No, the program team will not give us so many corpses.

" " Z h o n g Z i c a n g s h o o k h i s h e a d . A s t h e t e a m l e a d e r, h e w e n t t o

the program team. There were two corpses on the list at that time.
The producers asked for a while, saying that corpses are not easy
to find. I used to think that corpses are not easy to find

corpses, and this is not the only reason.

“One performance should only require a maximum of two

corpses. "Zhong Zicang said.

Zhang Runyue: "First of all, we must come to these two corpses

and find a way to add them to our program. "
 All the trainees in the lower group agreed that since the ghost

Ding Jingchen: "Then if we add two corpses, how can we make

the best use of them? What will we perform? "

T h e y d i d n' t t h i n k o f a g o o d i d e a a t t h e m o m e n t . T h e e m e r g e n c y
room is tr ying to rescue dying people. Adding corpses is

contrary to their original idea.

Seeing this, Xia Bai expressed his thoughts: "Since the ghost
audience likes corpses , then we can install the corpse. "

Ever yone looked at him, and Zhong Zicang asked: "Junior Xia
Bai, if you have any ideas, just say it. "

"Um. Xia Bai said: "The ghost audience likes corpses, so we tr y

our best to show them corpses, and we also lean in the direction
they like. This is what I call pretending to be corpses." If you

Wonderful! " "Tian Sihan said: "Not only is the program

creative and poking fun at the audience, each of us will also make
the audience like it more. Hu

Yihang reacted for a while and whispered: "In this case, I can
also act as a corpse. It's not that difficult. Thank you, Xia Bai." "

The other three plastic surger y people also looked at Xia Bai.

They were originally worried that as their egos were devoured,

their reactions would be much slower and they would not be able
to perform well. If it was a dead corpse, it would not be so
difficult for them to act
 - —They were already becoming like zombies.

“Good indeed. "Zhang Runyue said: "I was still thinking before
that if it were an emergency room, our roles would be unfairly

loved by the ghost audience. No matter how you are eliminated, it
will not be your turn. If you are the exorcist, the distribution will

Xia Bai looked at the other people in the group, and they
nodded one by one.

"Xia Bai, what the captain said makes perfect sense, and you

sp;"That is, how to drive away corpses, does anyone know? Do we

want to discuss it?"

Xia Bai pursed his lips and took out two corpse-suppressing
talismans and corpse-controlling talismans, "I can, this is my
skill , can suppress corpses and control corpses, this is reser ved
for those two corpses."

"..."

The practice room was quiet for a moment.

D i n g J i n g c h e n s a i d : " I d o n ' t k n o w w h y , b u t I f e e l v e r y h a p p y. I

"I actually see hope, it's incredible."

Zhang Runyue looked at the dumbfounded Xia Bai and smiled,

"The captain is right, as long as we prepare the program well, we
can pass the level. Single-player assessment for Junior Xia Bai

Zhong Zicang also smiled. He seemed to have not laughed for a

long time. He looked at the eleven players in the group and said,
" D o n' t t h i n k a b o u t p l a s t i c s u r g e r y a n y m o r e . L e t 's p u t a l l o u r m i n d s

"Okay!"

After the discussion, Zhong Zicang walked to Xia Bai by the

window and said to him: "Xia Bai, thank you."

Xia Bai Bai looked at it still dumbfounded, "Ever yone has a

Zhong Zicang smiled, but if you expose your skills, it may be

spread.

"..."

The trainees in the lower group and the upper group were
silent.

Xia Bai asked: "Ever y time you enter the game, are you the
same as Er wa? Are you accompanied by someone from the attack
team?"

Ya n g M e i : " B r o t h e r, h o w d o y o u k n o w ? "

Xia Bai: "Other w ise, it's hard for me to imagine how you
sur vived from so many games, even if you have useful skills."

Ya n g E y e b r o w : " . . . "

After eating, the twelve people in the lower group immediately

returned to the practice room. They spent an afternoon
completing the program and writing a personal stor y for each

 The director is Zhong Zicang, the technical director is Xia Bai.

They personally par ticipate in their own makeup, personally

design the costumes and hand them over to the program team.
They all come up with their own makeup, and the technical

With this configuration, not to mention their lower group, even

the two cranes at the end of the upper group were a little worried.

that even they are afraid of it.

The people in the lower group took a few bites of food and
returned to the practice room with a box of lunch.

Zhong Zicang came back later than them and explained the
situation to them: "It is indeed the middle group, and it is indeed
the second plastic surger y last week . And they took up the rest of

Ye s , i t ' s u s e l e s s t o s a y t h i s n o w . T h e y h a v e n o t h i n g t o d o .

The atmosphere in the practice room was oppressive and silent.

Zhong Zicang broke the silence and said with a smile: "Is this
scar y? Who said that Junior Xia

He was a serious person, but at this time he was a bit teasing

them. He seemed really relieved. This relaxed attitude made
others relax too.

" Ye s , I a m v e r y c o n f i d e n t i n o u r p r o g r a m . I d o n ' t b e l i e v e t h e y

"

This time, there were no complaints or angr y people in the

practice room. They were just angr y for a while and then star ted
to prepare together again.

Eat together ? The proposal of dinner was approved by all the

trainees. They had been close to each other a lot in the past few
days. They wanted to have dinner together as a group alone to
face tomorro w's scar y but not so scar y assessment.

" Yo u c a n a l s o e a t s o m e o f X i a B a i ' s h e a r t y d i s h e s . " Z h a n g

showing a relieved smile under the shaky light, "I'm ver y happy
when you say that."

Zhong Zicang left and walked down the stairs next to him.

They continued to rehearse in the practice room. After

practicing normally twice, they began to rehearse with their eyes
closed. When they could find their position with their eyes closed
a n d c o m p l e t e t h e p e r f o r m a n c e s m o o t h l y, t h e y k n e w t h a t t h e y

Should we wait in line twice for the last time when he comes?"
Ding Jingchen asked.

Z h a n g R u n y u e : " I t ' s b e e n m o r e t h a n a n h o u r. I s t h e c a p t a i n s o

Xia Bai's hear t skipped a beat when thinking of Zhong Zicang's

Just one of them is scar y enough. How does it feel when they
all come together? He seemed to have increased in height, and his

Xia Bai raised his head and looked at him, "Zhong Zicang, Can

Zhong Zicang smiled and was stunned for a moment, "What?

What are you going to do?"
 Xia Bai: "I will take you back to school."

Zhong Zicang looked at Xia Bai for a long time, his smiling eyes
slightly After a few twitches, what finally emerged was a smile,
but it seemed like it was more than just a smile.

" Ta k e m e b a c k t o s c h o o l . " H e r e p e a t e d , r a i s i n g t h e c o r n e r s o f

Zhang Zicang smiled and sighed: "I originally wanted to be an

anatomy teacher after my death. Being a anatomy teacher at my
alma mater is much better than being a plastic surger y material
here."

X i a B a i N o d d i n g , " O k a y. "

Zhong Zicang looked at the other people, "If they also..."

Xia Bai looked at Zheng Shaoning who was closest to him,

Xia Bai knew what Zhong Zicang meant. If something happened

to him, let him fulfill his wish and take them back to school. He
had asked all the remaining volunteers in their school .

D i n g J i n g c h e n : " I s t h e r e s t i l l m e ? W h y d i d n' t y o u a s k ? "

Xia Bai was stunned for a moment and asked: "Ding Jingchen,

They were the earliest ones. When the trainees from the waiting
group and the middle group came, they would look at them,
mainly looking at Zhong Zicang, who could no longer see his
original appearance, and was also surprised by their calmness. The

tension and panic in their faces and limbs were obviously less

other people.

Mei, who had put on makeup, walked over to them and thrust a
bottle of milk into Zhong Zicang's hand. Zhong Zicang was
stunned for a moment and passed. After a few seconds, he slowly
said: "Thank you."

Xia Bai and Zhong Zicang drank the warm milk, and then he ran
to Ling Changye and said something to him.

After the three judges took their seats, the four screens slowly
landed.

"The competition rules and elimination rules have been

welcome the trainees of the upper group. "

Without any pause or relaxation, the competition performance

just started.

The seven trainees in the superior group stood up from the

The seven trainees greeted the audience and judges one by one.
With a row of people standing on the stage like this, it was clear
at a glance who was calm and who was nervous.

The most ner vous ones were Liao Manni and Feng Sheng, the
only two people in the upper class who had undergone plastic
s u r g e r y, a n d t h e y a l s o h a d n o s k i l l s .

Liao Manni still had the standard sweet smile on her face, no

After they performed, they stood on the stage waiting for their
scores.

On the big screen behind the stage, a small spinning white

chr ysanthemum appeared, and the scores were being tallied.

81230 points.

This is the first score. No one knows whether this score is ver y
high, but judging from the barrage reactions, it is definitely not

Producer : "Thank you for the performance of the upper group.

Now we invite the trainees from the middle group."

After the trainees from the upper group came down, the
trainees from the middle group immediately went up.

This is a group of trainees with good looks and average

looks. If an ordinar y person transforms the worst par t of his face
into the most perfect appearance, his overall appearance will be
greatly improved.

years after his death."

"I am in the show . Dezhong plays a ghost who has become

more and more lonely three years after his death and has
forgotten how to speak ."

...

The trainees in the lower group were stunned, they were

pretending to be corpses, and the middle group were pretending
to be ghosts.

The reason for pretending to be a corpse is because the ghost

audience likes corpses, so they act in the direction that the ghost

ghosts who had a bad life after death. It is likely that they are

ghosts.

Not only do they have great looks, but their programs are also

They stared ner vously at the little chr ysanthemum spinning on

the big screen.

T h e r e ' s n o t h i n g t o b e a f r a i d o f, i s t h e r e ?

and they were really deeply moved by him. So relieved, not so
ner vous anymore.

He also said, believe us.

They believe in themselves, they have good ideas, and they

train until they can accurately perform with their eyes closed and
successfully complete the performance.

Zhong Zicang took them to the stage and stood among them.

He paused for a few seconds and did not speak

i m m e d i a t e l y. T h e t r a i n e e s w e r e n o t i n a h u r r y a n d w a i t e d f o r h i m

for a few seconds and said politely: "We are trainees in the lower

The trainees on the stage are all dressed as corpses, with gray-
purple skin, stiff faces and bodies, some have red lips that extend
to their ears, and some have long nails. They were all in the zone
from the moment they took the stage.

【Wow! The person speaking is amazing! 】

【The chosen idol! King of heaven! ]

[Oh my God! Look what I see? ! Corpses all over the stage! ]
 As soon as Xia Bai sat down, two corpses with corpse-
controlling charms appeared from under the stage,

pushing the popularity of the barrage to a new high.

[ A h a h a h , i t ’s X i a B a i ! ]

[ M y t r e a s u r e b o y, h e c a n a l s o c o n t r o l c o r p s e s ! ]

Xia Bai lifted the two corpses up from the ground, "Mom and
D a d , t h e n i g h t i s v e r y n i c e t o n i g h t , l e t ' s c o n t i n u e o n o u r w a y. "

Not only the ghost audience, but also the trainees present were
slightly stunned.

Most people here have heard of corpse chasers. In the past,

corpse chasers were people who brought people back to their
hometown after they died in a foreign land. They collected the
money and traveled thousands of miles to deliver the intact
corpses to their homes. They respectfully called these corpses the
G o d o f J o y, b u t m o s t o f t h e m d i d n o t r e c o g n i z e t h e m .

This corpse chaser was chasing his own parents.

His parents were dead and he was bringing them home.

For some reason, they all felt the loneliness of the corpse
c h a s e r. H e m i g h t n o t h a v e a n y r e l a t i v e s i n t h i s w o r l d a n y m o r e , a n d
the living people he met would avoid him.

the road. The villagers said that their corpses contained infectious
diseases and could not be left in the village.

He listened to their stories and took them with him.

The abandoned corpse was no longer alone. They were playing

The exorcists took them in and buried them all in their yard. At
night they would dig them out and bask in the moonlight

Under the moonlight, a smile appeared on his face, "I have a

and stay with me! ]

After the lower group finished their performance, they pulled

each other to their feet. The producer did not let them come
down, but asked the trainees from the other two groups to come
on stage and announce the final results of the three groups
t o g e t h e r.

The results of the upper group have come out. In the first

 T h e b a r s o f t h e t w o g r o u p s b e g a n t o r i s e r a p i d l y.

All the trainees looked up at the big screen, staring tightly and
without breathing.

The data of the middle group and the lower group were evenly
matched, and finally the middle group surpassed the upper group
by 82,250.

The lower group surpassed the middle group, 85980.

"Wow——" A cr y overflowed from the lower group. !

 Chapter 53

The tallest column of the lower group was moved to the front and
became the upper group.

The middle group is still the middle group.

The upper group became the lower group.

tears flowed down.

The two trainees in the upper group panicked. They became the
new lower group, and 30% of them were eliminated. There were 7
people in their group, so rounding up, they ended up with two
people.

T h e y f e l t t h r e a t e n e d y e s t e r d a y, b u t t h e y n e v e r t h o u g h t t h e y

They may be eliminated.

laughter with unknown meaning.

After hearing the voice, the bald man suddenly looked at Ling
Changye, his eyes widened, "Ling Changye, you did it on purpose!"

He quickly looked at Liao Manni beside him, who was trembling

a n d l o o k i n g a t h i m i n f e a r. " M a n n i e . . . "

Pro ducer : "The gro up results are out, let's take a look at the

group, and one trainee will be eliminated from the middle group."

They thought the producer had told them the elimination list. ,
the names of the eliminated people should appear on the big
screen, and ever yone will look back .

War m b l o o d s pa t tere d o n h i s f a c e .
 S e v e r a l p e o p l e t u r n e d a r o u n d b l a n k l y.

The people around him were gone, leaving only a patch of

blood on their bodies, dripping down.

The lower group eliminated Liao Manni and Feng Sheng, and
the middle group eliminated the players who were the first to
undergo plastic surger y last week .

The bald head subconsciously reached out to the side, and what
h e p u l l e d o u t w a s a b a l l o f a i r. T h e r e m u s t b e t h i c k b l o o d i n t h e

He stared into the hole below and saw only darkness.

Liao Manni disappeared inside without even screaming.

H e s t a r e d a t L i n g C h a n g y e w i t h s p l i t t i n g e y e s . Yo u M o h a n ' s
unexplained laughter made him guess whether Ling Changye was

perform well at all.

B e c a u s e h e d i d n' t w a n t t h e i r t e a m t o w i n .

If their group is eliminated, the ones most likely to be

eliminated are Liao Manni and Feng Sheng, a member of the Holy
Tr a v e l G u i l d a n d a m e m b e r o f t h e H a l f M o o n G r o u p .

But if Zhong Zicang's gro up is eliminated, at least two people

from the Gaming Administration will be eliminated.

Ling Changye felt his gaze and turned to smile at him. There
was some apology in the smile, which was a polite response from
the family members of the deceased opposite.

B a l d Q i a n g ' s b r e a t h i n g b e c a m e h e a v i e r a n d h e a v i e r, a n d h i s
eyes became more and more fierce.

assessment. I hope ever yone will continue to work hard, especially
the E-level trainees who performed the individual assessment last
time. All candidates who take the E-level assessment will be
eliminated."

After the producer finished speaking, he left with the other two
judges.

As soon as they left, the bald man rushed to Ling Changye and
asked loudly: "Did you let our team lose on purpose?"

Ling Changye asked him gently: "When I organized ever yone to

come up with a program at the beginning, who was the least
cooperative? ?"

"Do I have that much power to make our team lose on purpose?
Do I have that much power to prevent them from working hard and
not getting plastic surger y?"

He looked at the bald head with eyes so red that they seemed
to be bleeding. He stretched out his hand and pushed away He

She stared at the bald head with faint eyes for two seconds,

Xia Bai asked him: "Did you do it on purpose?"

After Ling Changye finished speaking, he turned to look at him

"Thank you. "Xia Bai was a little embarrassed to be praised by

him, and gave him an even dumber face.

Ling Changye: "..."

After the three performances, it happened to be lunch time,

and all the trainees walked to the restaurant.

Xia Bai and the others formed a superior group, and they could
all eat a box lunch of four dishes and one soup.

Xia Bai also saw that they did not take this assessment
seriously for various reasons. "It will be different next time."

After eating, the trainees in the new top group began to simply

began to lose themselves and lost their minds.

They finally decided that the two of them would live in one
room.

Xia Bai also moved from living alone to living in the same room
as Zhong Zicang. The two trainees helped them move Zhong
Zicang's bed to Xia Bai's ro om.

Looking at these two beds, Xia Bai thought of how they lived in
the same ward in the or thopedic hospital.

At that time, Zhong Zicang had great energy and quick

reactions. He dealt with many things ever y day and never forgot
to take care of him.

At this time, the room cleaning process in the sub-silo will

had a corpse with Zhong Zicang. After the appointment, Xia Bai
discovered something in the game app.

In the skill book , whether the corpse picked up by Xia Bai has
skills or not will increase the number of skill levels for him. Even
when he is just preparing the corpse, it will be different in the
skill book.

Among the several players picked up in this game, Zhong

Thinking back , Zhong Zicang may indeed have skills. If he was a

player without skills, why would he go with his brother to take on
the difficult bounty mission from the Game Management Bureau to
conquer the game map where his brother died.

But if he has skills, why not use them?

Why go for full-body plastic surger y without losing yourself ?

Xia Bai was really curious.

"I do have skills." Zhong Zicang thought for a while, then sat
on the bed and told Xia Bai.

Xia Bai did not rush him, and slowly asked and answered, "What
is the skill?"
 Zhong Zicang said after dozens of seconds: "The ring of time
and space. It can bind someone, a ver y trustwor thy person, no
matter where they are, both par ties can When any one of them
n e e d s t h e o t h e r, t h e o t h e r w i l l b e a b l e t o c o m e t o t h e i r s i d e , n o
matter life or death."

Xia Bai was stunned.

He knew who Zhong Zicang was bound to.

He knew why Zhong Zicang would rather have a full body

plastic surger y than use skills.

" S e n i o r, I u n d e r s t a n d . " X i a B a i s a i d .

Z h o n g Z i c a n g n o d d e d s l o w l y, a n d c a l l e d " J u n i o r X i a B a i " a s i f t o

" I w e n t t o t a k e a s h o w e r. " Z h o n g Z i c a n g s a i d .

Xia Bai nodded, "Go ahead."

As expected, Zhong Zicang's condition deteriorated much faster

than other plastic surger y players.

That night, Xia Bai saw that he kept his eyes open, tr ying to
fight against sleepiness. He could understand this feeling, and he
was par ticularly afraid of being swallowed too much in his sleep,
l o s i n g h i m s e l f, a n d n o t b e i n g a b l e t o w a k e u p .

He still fell asleep in a trance.

A t f i v e o' c l o c k t h e n e x t m o r n i n g , a l l t h e t r a i n e e s g o t u p t o t h e
sound of the bell.

As usual on Monday morning, they went to the studio to listen

to the producer explain the rules and rating standards for this
Sunda y 's per f orma nce a s s es s ment.

"This time it's ver y simple. This is the second time. I believe
ever yone is familiar with it. The only difference from the first solo
assessment is that this time we have added factors such as traffic
and fans. Dataization is to convert the performance time into
data. The number of viewers will be added to the assessment
criteria. I hope all trainees will find ways to attract more viewers."

They can under s tand the meaning of the pro ducer's words,
which the talent instructor has already reminded them, to attract
attention.

The difficulty increased again, but the trainees' reactions were

less intense and they seemed to have become numb. Some people
were no longer emotionally sensitive and slow to react.

In the more spacious training room for the upper class, twelve
t r a i n e e s s a t t o g e t h e r.

Zhong Zicang held his cell phone and read the words on it:
"Before discussing the program

, I have something to tell you. I am no longer suitable to be

your captain. I suggest that next, let Junior Xia Bai and Senior
Sister Zhang Runyue Lead everyone to complete the next game."

H e f l i p p e d t h r o u g h h i s p h o n e a n d c o n t i n u e d r e a d i n g : " I c a n' t
remember your names." He

h a d e x p e c t e d t h i s d a y f o r a l o n g t i m e , b u t h e d i d n' t e x p e c t i t
to happen so soon.

At this time, the eleven trainees said nothing and all nodded in
agreement.

Zhong Zicang looked at Zhang Runyue. Zhang Runyue, who was

always emotionally stable, quickly took over his work . She asked
ever yone: "What do you think about this week's solo per formance?
D o n' t w o r r y, e v e r y o n e h a s s i g n e d c o n f i d e n t i a l i t y p r o p s . "

Ding Jingchen: "Me too, I have some ideas, but I know that I

Several trainees think so.

trainees, we have the right to snatch plastic surger y oppor tunities
from other groups. "

After she analyzed this, the trainee who had not expected it
raised his head in surprise.

"That's true!
 "Is this the inexhaustible road? " "

God, we really want to thank us for working so hard last week!

"

"Thank you also Xia Bai! " "

But, the people who have had plastic surger y last week ..."

There are four people in their group who have had plastic
surger y last week , and Zhong Zicang, who has had plastic surger y
a l l o v e r h i s b o d y. T h e

four people who have had plastic surger y have been there for a
long time. After realizing it, he lowered his head sadly and
r e g r e t t e d w h y h e d i d n' t l i s t e n t o t h e c a p t a i n a n d p e r s i s t f o r a

Zhang Runyue said: "Players who have not had plastic surger y

Without

so much panic, the show was better prepared.

 The only thing that distracted them was Zhong Zicang.

They heard that the players in the mid-level group who had
undergone secondar y plastic surger y were almost the same as him.

They didn’t dare to think too much, so they took Zhong Zicang
like a child, taking him to the practice room, taking him to eat,
a n d t a k i n g h i m b a c k t o t h e d o r m i t o r y. . O n

Xia Bai hurriedly took out his mobile phone and opened the
game app, saw the second body that was successfully picked up,
Zhong Zicang.

He was stunned for a moment.

Zhong Zicang was dead.

It was Zhang Runyue who approached him first, stood behind

Zhong Zicang could no longer respond.

Several sobs rang out in the practice room.

Xia Bai stepped for ward to turn him around, but suddenly felt a
bone-chilling wind blowing past him and stopping in front of him.
 He looked up in a daze. , the ring of time and space, regardless
of life or death.

Is this, is it, is my brother here?

Zhong Zicang, who went for full-body plastic surger y without

calling his brother to help, was finally swallowed up to the point
where he could not remember anything, just like when a baby was
born, he instinctively needed Brother?

H o w e v e r, X i a B a i c o u l d n ' t s e e a n y t h i n g . H e o n l y s a w s o m e t h i n g
that Zhong Zicang was squatting and covering, which was a small
notebook.

Like Hu Yihang, he recorded ever ything about him, thinking

that he wanted to give it to others. As a trainee reference, he
remembered it in much more detail than Hu Yihang.

O n t h e m i d d l e p a g e o f t h e n o t e b o o k , h e w r o t e : [ Yo u m u s t

When they appeared, the people in the practice room stopped

crying.

They practiced hard in silence, with only the thoughts in their

minds That sentence, you must pass the game.

secondar y plastic surger y did not pass the game. They were stuck
on the stage for too long. Another one tried his best but still
failed.

He stood calmly on the stage and watched Xia Bai fall onto the
stage.

Can he still take them out of the game?

Xia Bai reassured them.

He could bring out Gu Quankun, who died somewhere in the

game, and they would definitely be taken out. He has the highest
authority to mobilize their corpses.

situation, the three players who were the first to have plastic
surger y and had plastic surger y twice stood on the stage and
forgot about their programs and did not know what to do. The

upper group was not eliminated. This time they Ever yone
became serious, maximized the effect of the skill stage, and all
passed the assessment. On

died. After they slept, they didn’t know what was happening in
their dreams. They were also taken away

by the physical teacher's team.

There were only six people left in the upper group.

One trainee in the middle group also died, leaving only two
people.

The lower group There are still five people.

Ding Jingchen said: "Then he shot himself in the foot. The

elimination in the team competition is not just based on
propor tion, they will be eliminated. If he becomes the lower
group, he himself will have to be eliminated."

In the lower group, 30% and no less than 2 trainees will be

eliminated.

10% and no less than 1 trainee will be eliminated from the

middle group.

The elimination rules after "and" will finally be used in the

final round.

When she said this, she looked at Xia Bai.

Xia Bai nodded.

During the meal, he also said this to the three people in the
lower group.

Ling Changye said: "Everyone depends on their ability this

time."

" A h ? Yo u g u y s a r e g o i n g t o o , w o n ' t y o u b e a b l e t o s q u e e z e i n ? "

Mei Jiaying said.

Xia Bai looked up at them and opened his mouth to say that
after they leave the game, treating the players can repair their
faces, but the self they lack may not be able to help them get
them back .

 On Saturday afternoon, he was the only one staying in the
practice room. The door was wide open, and he saw one or two
s t r a n g e p e o p l e p a s s i n g b y t h e d o o r, a n d t h e r e w a s a h i n t o f
familiarity among the strangeness.

The first person to return to the advanced training room was a

She sat next to Xia Bai, "Xia Bai, look at my mouth."

Xia Bai knew from the voice that it was Zhang Runyue. , it can
be seen that her mouth is...

" S e n i o r Wan g Wei ? "

Wan g Wei h a s a b e a u t i f u l m o u t h , w h i c h i s a ver y e ye- c a tc h i n g

Zhang Runyue smiled with a standard smile and nodded with

red eyes, "I have Weiwei's mouth, and the mouth talking to you
now is Weiwei. I feel that Weiwei's favorite food is peaches, and I

War m a n d wei rd .

At this time, many trainees came back , and Xia Bai finally
understood where the familiarity he had glimpsed on the faces of
strangers in other groups came from.

M a n y p e o p l e g o f o r f u l l - b o d y p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, w h i c h r e q u i r e s
more organs. The plastic surgeon uses the facial features of the
recently deceased trainee.

He remembered Hu Yihang saying that the initial feeling was

confusion, as if he could see the pictures that the owner of the
eyes had seen. This shows that when the plastic surger y was first
carried out, the facial features that were replaced did have par t of
t h e c o n s c i o u s n e s s o f t h e o r i g i n a l o w n e r.

 Chapter 54

The six players in the upper group, except Xia Bai, all had full-
b o d y p l a s t i c s u r g e r y.

Because they had the advantage of being in the upper class,

they did it all on Saturday afternoon and evening just like last
week.

The other two groups knew what their group was thinking, and
just in case, those who wanted plastic surger y went there on

be so ruthless, so they only had two or three plastic surgeries.
Seeing how curly they were, it was too late to go for plastic

He has already seen it from Zhong Zicang. Even if he undergoes

full-body plastic surger y for one night, his reaction will be much

Danfeng only had a nose job and had her whole body skin
changed.

He also carefully analyzed the current situation.

At present, the biggest disadvantage is the middle group. They

only have two people left. The other player has not yet had a full-
b o d y p l a s t i c s u r g e r y, a n d i t s e e m s t h a t h e c a n n o l o n g e r h o l d
on. The middle group is most likely to become the lower group,
with two people eliminated.

Their lower group looks about the same as the upper group.
No, in fact, the upper group seems to have a greater advantage.

eliminated were him and Shi Danfeng.

He was probably more likely to be eliminated, he made such a

poor impression on the judges, and his par t of the show was
mediocre. Ling Changye must have given him the bad par t on
purpose.

The blood whip did not hit the person like before, but crawled
onto the ba ld head's face, and the lines and spikes of the blood
whip turned into small tentacles like blood vessels. , along the

The bald head fell to the ground in pain, tr ying to roll away

After reading out the competition rules and scoring standards

as usual, the producer said: "Then, The competition officially
star ted, first we invite the trainees from the upper group."

Six trainees from the upper group went up, and almost no one
was nervous.

Zhang Runyue stood in the middle and said: "Good morning,

judges and audience, we are in the upper group. The trainee of ,
the performance brought to you today is ballroom dancing. "

[Huh?]

The six people saw the barrage, but they were not ner vous at
all.

The five trainees looked at Xia Bai, and Xia Bai snapped his
fingers with a blank face. A corpse appeared behind each of the
six, and the other six in the upper class died. The trainees
appeared neatly on the stage.

[Holy shit!]

[Oops! Why did they appear?]

After standing on the stage and letting the audience and

judges see them, Xia Bai summoned these corpses again. It was

They have confidence in their group, but if there is an accident

and they become the elimination group, they cannot let Xia Bai,

know that the corpse they like is Xia Bai was summoned.
 Once the body came out, they lost no time.

The six men turned around, faced their companions behind

them, and stretched out their hands to them.

Six corpses, slowly put his hands in their hands.

Ballroom dancing is the most common social dance on

If not for his son, he would have been kidnapped by those

She closed her eyes and opened them with a smile, using her
skills to help them.

Without looking, she knew how crazy the barrage was.

Snooping, curiosity and crazy desire are the darkness in their
bones. They spread from life to death. Even if they become ghosts,
the darkness of human nature is still there.

The other trainees intuitively felt how crazy the barrage was

entire studio.

After the performance, even the three judges did not react to
the performance for a moment.

Zhang Runyue whispered: "They may win. ()"

Ye s .

Because in the next two competitions, the number of viewers

watching during the performance was included in the scoring
system, which is one of the manifestations of traffic that the
producer has always said.

It turned out that the talent instructor had already told them
the secret of the final competition. She had always said that if you
dig deep, the effect would be astonishing.

Producer : The performance of the middle group is ver y

exciting. Now we invite the lower group. ⒊()⒊[()"

only had an ordinar y face. His bald head was already shaking
and sweating ner vously under the strong intimidation of the
middle group.

In the last competition where all the contestants were perfect

and stunning, he held back the lower group too much, even with
the "lover filter" "Mirror" and "Dad Filter"

() are here, and their group may really become an inferior

group again.

After seeing the cooperation of the president and his wife just

two people are eliminated , the other one besides the bald head
must be from the business depar tment.

As he expected, the bald head was indeed a hindrance, and Shi

Danfeng would not appear on the elimination list.

This time the performance of the upper class group was ver y
attentive, not as good as last time. Coping is a complete group

This is a hero who was dismembered and died miserably on the

people picked up the corpse and put it together thousands of
miles away to piece together a complete body for him. In tears,
t h e h e r o r e o p e n e d t h e s t o r y.

Piecing together the corpse already touched the love of the

ghost audience. This is another living person turning into a
corpse. The double reversal performance of the corpse opening its
eyes was supposed to be very effective.

B u t t h e b a l d h e a d w a s t o o m u c h o f a h i n d r a n c e . B u t w h e n Ta n g
Ying ran over with the corpse in his arms, he suddenly collapsed
on the ground with a red face, and his body swelled in several
p l a c e s . T h e n , t h e b a l d h e a d T h e r e w a s a l s o a n a b n o r m a l i t y,
something was stirring under the clothes.

Xia Bai's hand was tangled in sister Xuemu's hair again. He now

It was desire, specifically Qingyu. .

He can use this to make the human body expand and burst, and
S h i D a n f e n g ’s s k i l l i s t h e c h a r m s y s t e m . A c c o r d i n g t o t h e
information of the Game Management Bureau, when the two of
them entered the game at the same time, they had not
encountered an opponent.

At this time, they were cooperating again. The performance of

the two people in the middle group just now was not just their
performance, they

were setting up a net at the same time. Many people were

c a u g h t i n t h e n e t , t h e m o s t f a t a l o n e s w e r e B a l d h e a d a n d Ta n g
Ying on the stage.

After the performance, Ling Changye looked at Qingming, but

w h e n h e l o o k e d a t Yo u M o h a n a n d S h i D a n f e n g , h e f r o w n e d , j u s t
for a moment, and then smiled at them.

Yo u M o h a n a n d S h i D a n f e n g a l s o s m i l e d a t h i m .

They seemed to be eating in the cafeteria that day and looking

a t p h o t o s o f t h e i r s o n t o g e t h e r. A t t h e t i m e , t h e y w e r e p o l i t e a n d
harmonious.

Producer : "We have invited the other two groups of trainees to

come on stage. The exciting time has come. Who are the trainees
w h o c a n d e b u t tod a y?" L e t 's f i r s t l o o k a t t h e s c o re s f o r e a c h

On the big screen, three small white chr ysanthemums began to

rotate. After the rotation, the three green cylinders began to rise
r a p i d l y. T h e

cylinders on both sides stopped. The upper group was still

pressing the lower group, but the middle group was still rising. ,
surpassing the top group.

This time the producer did not announce the elimination list.
He said: "Everyone is most concerned about the debut list. Which
trainees of our program can successfully debut this season?" First
of all, let us congratulate Xia Bai. "

After the producer finished speaking, Xia Bai heard the familiar
voice.
