In Country S, inside an old English castle, there lived a group of either rich or noble people.

Putting aside their wealth and means, the fact that they are almost all of noble descent is enough to keep the media talking for days.

But more than half a year ago, these people sitting here were the most troublesome existences for all walks of life in Country S. They were the youngest generation of the nobles, and also the most talented generation in business and other aspects.

They are extremely wealthy and talented, but also extremely arrogant and conceited. It's not that they are invincible to each other. They have clashed with each other several times, almost causing the economic chaos and collapse of Country S, making the people of Country S love and hate them.

I love their country for having such a group of outstanding young talents, but I also hate that they are like terrible demons without shackles. If they are not controlled, they will be completely unbalanced.

It would be great if someone could keep an eye on them. Countless people in the upper echelons of Country S thought so, but unfortunately, their older generation was obviously old and could no longer recognize the younger generation.

Until... I heard that the new heir to the SD Foundation, a silver-haired young noble, came to power and was harvesting market share with extremely fast and ruthless means, and was completely encroaching on the market share held by that group of young talents.

Suddenly, the entire S country market was like an extremely terrifying stormy battlefield, and there was a feeling that it was about to completely collapse, and almost all people's hearts were in a state of tension.

It is almost conceivable that after such a group of outstanding young talents compete with each other, the best outcome would probably be mutual defeat, and the worst outcome... would be total annihilation.

After all, they are the most outstanding and craziest generation, but no one is willing to submit to anyone else.

However, to everyone's surprise, the storm did not last long. After only three days, the entire market became extremely quiet and stable.

Moreover, the situation of fighting and killing each other that everyone had worried about did not occur at all. Instead, they became very docile all of a sudden.

That group of extremely arrogant and conceited young talents were suddenly all conquered by the silver-haired young noble from the SD Group. They were all very well-behaved and obedient, and it was impossible to imagine how arrogant and conceited those guys were before.

While those guys in the upper echelons of Country S breathed a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but mention the name of SD Foundation again and sighed.

As expected, every time it was the turn of that silver-haired family to emerge and take over the SD Foundation, it was like they came out of nowhere, unstoppable, and every silver-haired person who was born would inherit their family's unique name:

Silver-haired Andre.

Of course, this is all what the outside world sees.

But in fact, the silver-haired Andre and the young nobles, for the Silver Dragon Andre, there is only one reason:

He was awakened.

I was awakened again for no reason.

The strong temper when waking up will make Silver Dragon Andre's temper become extremely violent, and his already cruel methods will become even crueler and more unscrupulous until he calms down.

Unfortunately, that group of arrogant young talents happened to run into the trap, and were suppressed in one breath by the grumpy Andre.

Of course, he wasn't much better when he was sober.

"I really think, Andre, you need to change your bad temper. I seriously doubt how you raised your cubs with a temper like that. Our cubs didn't cry, which means they were really sensible."

As Tulong sipped his red wine, he looked up at the silver dragon Andre, who was half-leaning over like a boneless person, letting his silver hair hang loose, and looked listless and indifferent. He couldn't help but complain a few words.

Andrei didn't even raise his eyelids. He only hummed twice and then slumped down in the chair like a boneless person.

"I just woke up suddenly and couldn't help but lose my temper. If you want me to be less grumpy, I need to get a good night's sleep. It's been a long time since I had a good night's sleep. Do you think I'm to blame for this?"

This is really your fault.

The Earth Dragon couldn't help but complain in his heart. No one could disturb the dragon's sleep. Besides, the other five dragons knew that the Silver Dragon was picky and grumpy, so they would not come here to cause trouble.

In other words, basically, Silver Dragon can control how long he wants to sleep and when he wants to wake up, and there is no such thing as "disturbing" him.

Moreover, Tulong believed that Andre, the silver dragon, was no better than the golden dragon Will, who always liked to find similar human substitutes and had not yet gotten over the fact that their dragon cub had disappeared.

The most obvious evidence is that the Silver Dragon suddenly woke up for no apparent reason, which happened after the collapse of Dragon Island.

And Andre was the one who slept the longest among the six dragons. He was unwilling to wake up. Once he was "awakened", he would make all kinds of ugly faces and toss around until he was tired, and then he would fall asleep again quickly.

Things like the "Global All-Round Artist Competition" were created in this way.

But it’s also a good thing. For him, a bored earth dragon, and the red dragon next to him, it can be considered a pastime.

Tulong Zhao Yan thought so.

At this moment, the young talents in front of them seemed to be talking about something, and suddenly started to make a noise, and said in the direction of Andre:

"Boss, according to reports from those down below, it looks like this year's All-Around Artist Competition will have some very interesting prizes. Today's ratings alone have already reached the level of the second day of the broadcast."

"I also heard that this year's model group has a strong team player, which has created a good atmosphere from the start. I wonder if things will start to fall out when the competition officially begins. It was like that last year. There was a pair of sister models who talked about how close they were before the competition, but who knew that once the competition started, they were the ones who started to quarrel the most."

"Tsk tsk, I'm different. I'm a bit superficial. I only care about whether she's a beauty or not. I haven't seen a beautiful girl who can move my heart for two months~"

The group of young talents joked with each other that the high ratings reported below made them have certain expectations for this program.

And because they will appear as judges in batches to score, Andre stipulated that they cannot watch the live broadcast of the contestants' dormitory in advance. They can only directly contact, watch, and evaluate the contestants when the competition starts tomorrow.

This model is simply great for that group of young talents who are also bored, adding a bit of freshness and mystery.

Moreover, in the first three rounds of this all-round artist competition, the finalists were not allowed to take off their masks, so they could only rely on their own intuition to score and select points.

This adds another big prize, to see which blindly selected artist has the highest appearance after removing the mask, and whoever has the highest appearance will win.

Of course, these are of little interest to the Silver Dragon, the Red Dragon and the Earth Dragon. The Red Dragon is only interested in the cooking aspect, while the Silver Dragon and the Earth Dragon are so bored that they have nothing to entertain themselves with.

Until Honglong felt his phone vibrate a few times, he subconsciously opened Weibo and took a look. When he saw who sent the message, he exclaimed "Huh" in surprise.

"What's wrong? Norton, is there something wrong?"

"It's not me who has the problem. It's He Long, Will, and Ed. They got together at some point and said they were coming."

Black dragon, golden dragon and tree dragon?

The shout from the red dragon Norton really piqued the interest of the other two dragons, especially the silver dragon, who raised his eyebrows for a rare moment.

He wasn't surprised that the Black Dragon and the Golden Dragon were hanging out together, but it was rare for that Tree Dragon Ed to hang out with two brainless guys?

Not only did they hang out together, but they also came to his place. Hadn't they always been uninterested in his activities? And now, they were actually coming?

Thinking of this, Silver Dragon Andre subconsciously flipped through his phone, and sure enough, he saw the three dragons saying in the chat group that they had arrived in Country S and were about to come over.

No, it’s not about to come, but it has already come.

Dragons of the natural attribute are most sensitive to dragons of the same natural attribute. In just a moment, the earth dragon had already sensed something. It turned around and stared at the direction of the gate, saying with certainty:

"Andre, I think the guards in your territory should be strengthened. No need to watch them, they are already here."

"Your perception is indeed the strongest, Zhao Yan."

Just as Earth Dragon Zhao Yan finished speaking, a very familiar and elegant voice was heard outside the door. Whose voice could it be but Tree Dragon Ed's?

The next moment, the figures of the Black Dragon, the Golden Dragon and the Tree Dragon appeared in front of everyone in the living room, and they quickly recognized the identities of the three people in front of them.

After all, the young talents here are no ordinary people. They have more or less contact with other consortiums in business, so they naturally recognize who the real owners behind these consortiums are. Even Ed, who rarely shows up, can recognize them.

However, what they never expected was that their big boss Andre had a special relationship with the three financial groups BD, GD and TD.

It can be seen from the natural movements of the three people opposite when they came in. They were so natural that they could choose a comfortable position to sit down without the consent of the castle owner.

The owner of the castle, Andre, had no objection to the actions of the three people opposite him. It was obvious at a glance that they were very familiar with each other.

No, to be precise, it is not just Andre's SD Group that is on good terms with the BD, GD and TD Groups, but there are six groups present, and their relationships are surprisingly average.

Aren’t Mr. Zhao Yan on the left and Mr. Norton on the right the big bosses of the two major conglomerates, ED and RD?

Suddenly, this group of talented young people felt that the air around them was a little suffocating.

The six big bosses of the consortium gathered together. Their faces, half-smiling and half-smiling, made them unable to help but step back a few steps. They retreated again and again, until they had no more room to retreat. They collided with each other and whispered "fuck" to each other.

"Fuck, you stepped on my limited edition sneakers. Why did you take them off? There are so many places to stand in front. It hurts so much!!"

"Fuck me! They're just limited edition sneakers! I'll buy you two pairs later. There are so many empty seats up front. Switch with me and I'll give you my spot!"

"Fuck, calm down. I don't need a pair of limited edition sneakers. I won't trade them even if you give me ten pairs. I won't trade them even if you kill me. Do you think I haven't lived long enough?"

In the corner, a group of guys, all of whom were "chosen ones", were "huddled" together like a series of frightened quails at this moment, arguing with each other until their faces turned red and their necks became thick, just to hide themselves a little deeper and in a safer area. It was really "spectacular" for a while.

But all these little noises disappeared as soon as Andre opened his mouth for the first sentence. The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and the only sound was the sound of the six big bosses of the consortium gently stirring the tea sets.

"Three of you, long time no see. What brings you here today? I remember there's nothing here for you six to be concerned about, Andre? Could it be that you're concerned about Norton's craftsmanship?"

"Forget it, Andre. Don't drag me into your verbal fight. I, Norton, may be dumb, but I'm not stupid. If you drag me into this, don't blame me for getting irritable and rude."

Red-haired Norton spoke bluntly. He had known for a long time that it would be no fun if he got together with the other five guys. He had been a cannon fodder for so many years, couldn't he be smarter?

However, speaking of cannon fodder, Norton really thought of a guy, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the golden dragon Will who always came last in every fight.

"Speaking of which, Will, what have you been busy with lately? It's not like there's been any unusual activity from the GD Foundation in Country M. Why haven't you posted about your substitute human on WeChat Moments in the past few months? And there haven't been any updates at all? Have you changed your personality? This isn't like you. Are you hiding something?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Will, who had just taken a sip of red wine, choked several times, attracting the other four gazes.

However, unlike the inquiry in Andre, Norton and Zhao Yan's eyes, the expressions in He Long and Ed's eyes were clearly warning and stupid.

Did he find the real cub? If he had found the real cub, why would he show it off? Will is not stupid. He will not show off his cub everywhere and attract competitors.

Over time, wouldn't he have forgotten about posting photos of his baby on WeChat Moments?

However, Will was a bit stupid, but when it came to 'fighting for the cub', his desire to survive was extremely strong. After choking twice, he quickly returned to normal, curled his lips very calmly, and said:

"I just found it a bit boring, didn't I? So I stopped looking. Just like you said, no matter how much a human looks like a cub, it's still not a cub. I stopped looking because I found it boring. Naturally, there's nothing good to post on my Moments. Have you ever seen me post anything else on Moments?"

Will said it seriously, and when you think about it, it's true. Although Will seemed very active in the circle of friends before, there was nothing else except posting pictures of puppies replacing humans. What Will said didn't sound fake.

But... Norton always felt that Will was a little weird. He seemed a lot more serious than before, and could even speak in such organized words. Could it be that he had changed because he had been with Ed and He Long for a long time?

Norton was puzzled, and his eyes could not help but stay on Will for a while, until He Long started to speak, and then Norton drew his attention back to what He Long said:

"Nothing much, Andre. We just haven't gotten together in a while. Of course, that's just a facade. Our goal is the 'All-Around Artist Competition'. Will and I were bored, so we talked about you. Speaking of the many shows and entertainment options you have, we decided to come join in the fun. As for Ed, we just happened to meet him on the street, so we decided to come along. What do you think? The three of us can join in the fun, right?"

To be honest, Andre didn't believe a word of this. It sounded too much like the 'answer' that Ed had given to He Long, something about meeting him on the road, or him just being bored. It was too fake. Don't think Andre couldn't hear it.

From the posture of these three dragons, it is obvious that they came together and had discussed it beforehand.

Andre even suspected that, of He Long's words just now, only the sentence "Our goal is the 'All-Round Artist Competition'" was true, and the rest were false. But there shouldn't be anything in the 'All-Round Artist Competition' that is worthy of their attention, right?

However, no matter how confused I was, wouldn't I know what the three dragons across from me were up to? The truth would naturally come out.

Thinking of this, Andre became more interested. It was just a matter of inserting a few people on the judges' panel. It was not a problem at all for him.

What's more, at this moment, Andre was aroused by the three dragons including Black Dragon and He Long. He wanted to see what these three dragons were planning under their noses.

So, Andre nodded and added He Long, Will and Ed to the permanent judges.

The 'Global All-Round Artist Competition' has a total of ten judges, three elimination rounds, three elimination rounds, and a final round of the finals.

In order to ensure fairness, the judges for the first three elimination rounds cannot be the same as the judges for the last three elimination rounds. Obviously, in Andre's opinion, the first three elimination rounds without showing up are more interesting than the last three rounds, and He Long and the others seem to think so too.

So, naturally, the judges for the first three elimination rounds were Andre and his six dragons, as well as four other guest judges.

The more professional judges, as well as other invited judges, will be placed in the last three elimination rounds.

Such a decision made Andre and others regret it so much after they found out who was on the field.

Of course, this is a story for later. At the moment, Andre, who doesn't care about the 'All-Round Artist Contest' at all, doesn't think there is anything wrong with his arrangement.

Time flies.

Especially for the artists who have just arrived at the dormitory, the time is so fast that it is terrifying. It feels like they have just arrived one moment, and the next moment they open their eyes, they have to enter a very tense and fierce competition.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the competition team gathered on time. They had to prepare their own costumes, but there was only one requirement: they had to wear the mask they chose yesterday. This mask would be worn for three rounds of eliminations. In the fourth round, the mask would be taken off for the overall comprehensive scoring.

In other words, the first three rounds are favorable for artists with high popularity and outstanding talents. If they want to compete with their looks, they must first survive the first three rounds of eliminations.

To be honest, this is very disadvantageous for some artists who rely on their looks to get ahead, but it also eliminates the existence of vase artists.

However, the cruelty of the 'All-Around Artist Competition' had already been witnessed before they even arrived at the dormitory. The most obvious proof of this was:

The contestants' number plates were arranged in the order of their arrival at the dormitory. Yaya was number one and Lin Long was number two, but yesterday, the largest number they saw on the number plate was only eighty-eight.

In other words...

"Unfortunately, after yesterday's impromptu coping skills test, only eighty-eight of the one hundred finalists have been selected. The other twelve have already been eliminated! They haven't even officially started filming yet, so they're out of our competition. But don't lose heart. If you're brave and daring enough, you can come back and challenge us again in the next four years. Okay, getting back to business. Your host, the famous commentator David, will be hosting the entire competition. My exquisite and charming beauties, are you ready?"

"We will be live-recording the entire event. Our cameras may magnify every flaw of yours, but conversely, your strengths will also be magnified and visible to everyone. Before we begin our first round of eliminations, let me introduce you to the ten judges for the first three rounds. Wow, this list of judges is incredible! Girls, you'll be excited once you hear it. No, to be more precise, everyone will be excited once they hear this list. Our ten judges are..."

As the host David spoke excitedly, he waved his arm towards the big screen behind him. The big screen flashed, revealing the gorgeous judges' stage indoors.

Two or three names of young talents were reported, some of whom Lin Long did not know very well, but who should be very famous in Country S, because Lin Long could hear the girls around him couldn't help but cheer in surprise.

To be honest, since she really didn't know who the judges were, Lin Long didn't really pay attention to who they were. She guessed the fourth judge would be the same...

Lin Long subconsciously thought so, and at this moment, the host David's voice came out again:

"Now, let's welcome our fourth judge, He Long—"

Oh, the fourth judge's name is He Long... Hmm? Wait? He Long? Doesn't that sound a bit off?

Almost in an instant, Lin Long realized what the host was reading and raised her head abruptly. As expected, she saw a face that belonged only to her Black Dragon father, He Long!

Lin Long: “…”
