It is known that most of the contestants are amateur performers, except for Ji Ruochu, they basically do not appear on camera, let alone any film or television works.

Apparently, the culprit who torments Yuan Xiyuan with post-viewing impressions of television works every year... must be Ji Ruochu, the queen of the holiday season.

"So, I hope through this challenge, I can make my girlfriend realize her partner's true ability. If I succeed in this challenge, then..."

Then what?

Everyone was obviously very curious.

"I hope she can watch one or two fewer of her idol's works every year, and watch me more instead."

The next second, bursts of thunderous laughter erupted on site, apparently finding the contrast between Yuan Xiyuan's previous assertiveness and his current humbleness very amusing.

"You wish!"

Just as everyone was teasing Yuan Xiyuan's submissiveness, Chai Jiazi, who was sitting next to Ji Ruochu, suddenly jumped out.

The young lady was clearly furious: "If you have any objections, come at me, don't bully my idol!"

Everyone: ... Sᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Comments:

[Isn't this girl's idol worship making her delusional?]

[Exactly, this is a competition, isn't her idol worship a bit too fanatical?]

[Look at this, these are Ji Ruochu's fans.]

...

Apparently, no one expected Chai Jiazi's reaction to be so intense, but the host reacted quickly, laughing: "Oh? Is contestant Chai Jiazi issuing a challenge directly to Yuan Xiyuan? Yuan Xiyuan, will you accept the challenge?"

At this point, not only the comments but also the contestants on site began to cheer them on.

Logically speaking, in this situation, Yuan Xiyuan should have backed down gracefully, then used his formidable strength to crush Chai Jiazi and ascend to the Pioneer Seat - that would have been the normal course of action. However...

"Okay, then I'll choose Bei Lingyu."

Bei Lingyu, who was drinking water at the time... silently swallowed his water and stood up to accept the challenge with an expression of disbelief.

Ji Ruochu on the other side, who was already eager to stand up: ??

Everyone: ...

Hello? What is this situation?

Wait, what kind of game are you three playing?

"Bei Lingyu, do you have anything to say about this sudden challenge?" the host asked with a smile after a brief moment of confusion.

"..." The person in question seemed very exasperated, "I'm already used to it."

"Oh? How are you used to it? Please elaborate."

Everyone on site was full of curiosity, apparently, from the conversation between the three of them, people had already started to figure out the relationship between Chai Jiazi and Yuan Xiyuan.

But previously, Chai Jiazi and Bei Lingyu also seemed very familiar with each other, could it be that...

"We three grew up together, and they started secretly dating in middle school, but I've always been the one getting blamed."

Wow—

The venue was filled with various expressions of shock. The camera turned to Yuan Xiyuan, who had a nonchalant expression, looking at his good friend as if to say: We're all good friends, why bring this up?

Then the camera moved to Chai Jiazi, who was whispering with Ji Ruochu. The post-production team was quite skilled, playing the sound of what she said:

"Darling, rest assured, with me here, he doesn't have a single chance of challenging you."

Ji Ruochu next to her... smiled weakly and unconvincingly: Thank you.

The comments were laughing uncontrollably, and Bei Lingyu's complaints continued:

"This guy is really cunning. He could easily get first place, but he always controls his score, then finds excuses for me and Chai Jiazi to tutor him.

Every time we tutor him, they just flirt with each other, disgusting me to no end."

The venue was instantly filled with laughter, satisfying the craving for drama among the studious contestants.

"It seems today's PK Battle between you three is a combination of new and old grievances?" The host smiled as he brought the conversation back on track, "Since that's the case, I won't say much more, let's proceed directly to our Pioneer Seat PK Battle."

As the host finished speaking, the large screen on site instantly displayed the new challenge rules, and the previously relaxed atmosphere instantly dissipated.

Everyone focused their attention on the new rules, except for Ji Ruochu... whose expression was listless, her face filled with boredom.

While everyone was fervently discussing the mechanisms and difficulties of the PK Battle, Ji Ruochu casually glanced over, then changed the hand propping up her chin.

By the time Bei Lingyu and Yuan Xiyuan had entered the intense trial and competition, Ji Ruochu was already leaning back lazily and comfortably against the Pioneer Seat.

Thus, by the time Bei Lingyu and Yuan Xiyuan's battle had reached a white-hot stage, Ji Ruochu's fans in the comments were worried that she might have fallen asleep.

If it weren't for Ji Ruochu clapping in a timely manner to congratulate Yuan Xiyuan on his narrow victory over Bei Lingyu, everyone might have thought she had indeed entered the realm of dreams.

Fortunately, the program's competition format was very compact, and as soon as Yuan Xiyuan sat down, the host announced that the 84 contestants who had previously advanced would be facing their Circle Challenge.

"In this round of competition, there are only 44 advancement spots, and the remaining 40 contestants will automatically become members of the C Circle."

Upon hearing this, the contestants became tense again, while Ji Ruochu remained calm and unflustered, until—

"Of course, the contestant who gets first place in this Circle Challenge will still have the opportunity to challenge the Pioneer Seat!"

At that moment, the most excited was not the contestants' seats, but Ji Ruochu, who was sitting on the Pioneer Seat and might face a challenge.

The cameraman, as if having anticipated Ji Ruochu's reaction, immediately gave her a close-up shot.

At that moment, everyone clearly saw the excitement and light in her eyes.

"It seems someone on the Pioneer Seat is already eager to be challenged."

As soon as these words were spoken, good-natured laughter instantly arose.

"Contestant Ji Ruochu, would you like to issue a challenge to the other contestants? This could increase the likelihood of being chosen to challenge."

"Yes." The girl brushed aside the messy hair on her forehead and smiled—
