When the trainees arrived, the guest performers were already waiting.

Shen Shiqing and Xing Jianan stood together, their faces cold, and they did not exchange any words.

Lu Jingchu and Shi Xia stood together, looking like an older brother leading a younger sister, although, well, it seemed that was indeed the case.

Xia Chun and Song Zhihuai were together, standing very close to each other, but Song Zhihuai seemed a little impatient.

Wen Xinran and Qin Shiyue stood to the side, occasionally exchanging whispers, and seemed to have a good relationship.

"Holy crap!!! It's actually Actor Lu!!!"

"How could I possibly be worthy of meeting Actor Lu here..."

"Mom and Dad, I've made something of myself!!!"

"They all look so good..."

This was the trainees' first reaction upon seeing the guest performers.

"Welcome, teachers! Hello, teachers!" Rows of teachers bowed in unison.

"Hello." Of course, they responded politely.

Wen Silin, as the initiator of the program, began to warm up the audience.

"Does everyone see that the guest performers are happy?"

"happy!!!"

"Are you looking forward to collaborating with them?!"

"expect!!!"

The boy's voice was loud and clear, radiating an irresistible youthful energy.

"Does anyone have a guest performer they'd like to choose?" Wen Silin deliberately threw out a question.

Discussions then began to ripple through the crowd.

"Can I choose for myself?"

"Wow, if I could choose, I'd want to choose..."

"Among them, only Senior Qin Shiyue and Senior Shi Xia come from professional idol groups, right?"

"I really want to choose them too, I feel like they have a better chance of winning."

"Who are those two cold-faced seniors? They don't seem very approachable."

Shen Shiqing knew that the person was talking about her.

Two of them had cold faces, and of course, there was also Xing Jianan.

But I don't think I gave them a cold look, did I? Shen Shiqing thought for a moment, then smiled at the student who had spoken, her eyes crinkling.

"Holy crap!!! Wow, so beautiful!!! That senior just smiled at me!!!" the student said to his friend next to him. Shen Shiqing looked at his name tag: Gu Yu.

Hmm, that's a good name.

I knew Shen Shiqing before; he was quite popular, otherwise he wouldn't have made it to the third round. His fans affectionately call him "Guyu Brother".

She has a pretty good appearance, Shen Shiqing thought. Her expressions are also very rich, and her thoughts are written all over her face. She seems to be a simple person.

His friend next to him also looked in Shen Shiqing's direction, and Shen Shiqing nodded to him and waved gently.

The student then pretended to be about to collapse as if he had been hit in the heart, as if he urgently needed artificial respiration.

"Looks like a drama queen," Shen Shiqing thought. "Qi Yuan seems pretty good too."

Shen Shiqing also noticed several people secretly watching her, and she would start to dodge whenever she looked in that direction.

Like a little hamster.

Shen Shiqing recognized a few of them; they were popular candidates for debut, and some of them even matched her aesthetic preferences, so she paid more attention to them.

Shen Shiqing also knew a little about the contestants' personal information and experiences.

This is her work ethic; it's never a bad thing to know more about her.

Of course, Shen Shiqing also heard some negative comments, which seemed to indicate that people were not very satisfied with her.

Shen Shiqing understood, after all, these students hadn't been in contact with the outside world for a long time, and they didn't even know that everything had changed so drastically.

I guess people's impressions of her are still stuck in the past, which is understandable.

"You guys actually started making selections?" Wen Silin chuckled. "I was just joking with everyone. The guest performers for each group were already decided before you arrived."

The commotion subsided, and the contestants began to listen attentively.

"Next, let me announce the guest performers for each group. The guest performers for 'Magic' are Mr. Shen Shiqing and Mr. Xing Jianan."

As soon as he finished speaking...

People started whispering among themselves again.

"No way? Is Shen Shiqing the same Shen Shiqing we know?"

"Wasn't she covered in scandals before? Now she's allowed to be a guest?"

Is something happening outside that I don't know about?

"It's okay, it's okay, she's not in our group anyway."

"That's true, that's true."

...

The members of the "magic" group immediately sided with Shen Shiqing and Xing Jianan upon hearing this, very consciously.

"The guest performers for the group 'Nana' are Teacher Lu Jingchu and our Shi Xia. Please have the students stand behind them." Wen Silin was also Shi Xia's mentor before, so they were quite familiar with each other.

The members of the "nana" group rushed over almost immediately.

This lineup is incredibly strong.

First is Lu Jingchu. Lu Jingchu has high national recognition, and his popularity goes without saying, which will likely have a significant impact on their group's votes.

Secondly, there's Shi Xia. Shi Xia comes from a professional singing and dancing girl group. Although she's a bit cute, her skills are undeniable. As their senior, she will be a great help to their stage performance.

"The guest performers for the 'Comet XP' group are Ms. Wen Xinran and Ms. Qin Shiyue."

The third group, consisting of Li Yuyan, Mo Ling, Gu Yu, Jiang Yixuan, Lu Jiayuan, and Qi Yuan, also stood behind them.

"The guest performers for the group 'Flashlight' are teacher Song Zhihuai and teacher Xia Chun."

He Muyan, Lin Yu'an, Lin Yunan, Ji Haoran, Su Xunnan, and Fu Yu'an from this group all greeted them.

But they couldn't figure out who Song Zhihuai was. They'd never heard of him before. Was he the one who became famous these past two months?

At this point, they had no idea that running into Song Zhihuai and his group meant they were in deep trouble.

"Alright, now it's the 'party party' group's turn. Come on, guess who your guest performer is?"

Wen Silin deliberately kept everyone in suspense.

“It’s someone you know very well.” Then she added, “And he’s incredibly strong.”

The trainees of "Party Party" were initially confused, thinking they wouldn't have any guest performers.

Hearing Wen Silin's words, they perked up and became much more excited.

Could it be Skyline?!

I heard they're coming, is that true?!

But with so many people in their group, it's impossible for them all to be our guest performers.

So who exactly is it?

Lu Xiangnan tugged at Song Yu next to him in "Party Party," and Song Yu looked at Li Muye, who in turn looked at Lin Mufan, who of course didn't know who it was either.

So the pressure fell on his teammate Suzhou Ning. Suzhou Ning looked around but couldn't come up with a solution, so he pinned his hopes on Ling Jue.

Ling Jue pondered for a moment.

An answer is becoming clear.

But he wasn't sure either.

"It can't be ours..."

"Our what?" Lu Xiangnan looked at Ling Jue, his eyes filled with clear stupidity.

“Mentor,” Ling Jue said calmly, and at the same time, the door opened.

Their mentor did indeed come in.

“Hey kids from ‘Party Party,’ come here!” This is Yu Jiangnan.

"Are you happy to see us?" Jolie found their surprised expressions somewhat amusing.

"Yeah, I'm happy." A group of people transformed into robots that could only nod.

"Just be happy, and keep up the good work!"

"But why did you all dress up? So elaborate to welcome me?" Yu Jiangnan joked. "Xiao Xiang seems a little reluctant~"

"No, it was just a little unexpected, um, a little shy."

"Yes, I really didn't expect that."

"Sister Yu looks beautiful today too."

"That's right, so is Teacher Qiao."

They were saying things to praise others, but their expressions were already showing sadness.

"I'm so happy."

————————————

Lu Xiangnan: So all that dressing up was for nothing?!

Song Yu: Don't you look at yourself? You're like a peacock.

Ling Jue: I feel a little bit sad.

Suzhou Ning: Okay, I'm going next door to check out the handsome male and beautiful female teachers...

Lin Mufan: I even wore my suit...

Li Muye: I even dyed my hair...

Yu Jiangnan: You're so happy you feel a mix of emotions?

Joachim: Yes, they were so happy they were practically eating grains.
