"Congratulations to Class B for winning the award. I hope students from other classes won't be discouraged." Pan Li encouraged everyone, "Do you remember what I said on the first day of recording the show? This process is full of challenges and opportunities, and you need to grab the opportunities with your own hands."

"Many students may think, why didn't you tell me in advance about such an important thing as MV shooting? If I had prepared early, I could have memorized the lyrics." Pan Li said, "But there are no ifs. Opportunities don't wait for anyone. Only those who are always prepared and smart and careful enough are worthy of its favor."

“Instead of wasting time worrying and regretting, it is better to reflect on how you will seize the next opportunity when it comes.”

These words touched the hearts of many students. Many of them were originally dejected because they missed the opportunity to be on camera, but after hearing these words, they rekindled their fighting spirit and looked more energetic than before.

"Now, I'll give you all an hour to have breakfast," Pan Li's expression softened as he saw that his goal had been achieved. "Only after you've eaten enough will you have the energy to attend class. At nine o'clock, each class will go to their respective practice rooms. Your vocal teacher will be waiting for you there."

＿＿

In the morning, there was a vocal music class, and the students officially began to learn the theme song of Dream Maker, "Summer Journey". This song is dynamic, catchy, and sounds very brainwashing, but when you really learn it, you find that it is not easy to sing at all.

"This pitch is too high... My throat is broken!"

"This rap lyrics are too dense! I'll feel suffocated after singing it!"

"Help, I can't breathe!"

Class B's practice room was filled with wailing. The more they sang, the more they doubted their lives. However, the vocal teacher spared no effort to discourage them: "You are out of breath now. What will you do when you add the dance? You only have five days to learn the theme song. You better hurry up."

Qiu Shuang was a little depressed. He used to think that he was a good singer and a good microphone master in KTV. But after coming to the show, he found that he was really "KTV level". His vocal skills were so lacking and there were loopholes everywhere.

He glanced around and walked to the corner of the south wall of the practice room, sitting cross-legged beside Ye Ying. "Little Ye, can you show me how to sing this part? I can't do it no matter how hard I practice."

Ye Ying glanced at the part he circled and sang it softly.

Qiu Shuang was both impressed and amazed: "Why do you sing so easily? The lyrics are so dense, I always feel like I'm going to die."

"You need to find the breathing point and take a breath on the weak beats. Don't use up all your breath in one go." Ye Ying explained to him, "You also need to consciously save your breath when singing."

Seeing that Qiu Shuang still looked half-understood, Ye Ying thought for a moment and said, "I've seen some training techniques. You can usually do some breathing exercises, open your mouth and stick out your tongue, then inhale and exhale, each time for one to two minutes. It's very effective in training your breath control and endurance."

He then demonstrated it to Qiu Shuang: "Just like this. Like a puppy panting."

Qiu Shuang looked at the boy sticking out his tongue and demonstrating to him seriously, and suddenly burst out laughing.

Ye Ying was a little confused: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Qiu Shuang coughed, smiling, "I just think you're a little cute."

When I first met Ye Ying, it was easy to mistakenly think that she was aloof and difficult to get along with. However, from many details, it can be seen that Ye Ying is not cold, but introverted, and even has a little bit of social phobia.

He is not good at actively communicating with others, nor is he used to being the center of attention. He seems to minimize his presence, and it would be best if no one noticed him, which is his most comfortable state.

Qiu Shuang felt surprised. With Ye Ying's excellent appearance and strength, he should have been the kind of person who received much attention since he was a child. He didn't know why he developed such a personality.

"What are you two whispering about?" A little curly-haired boy flew over and sat down next to him on the other side of Ye Ying. "Yingying, I'm not very good at singing the high notes. Can you teach me?"

After saying that, he quickly stuck out his tongue at Qiu Shuang and hugged Ye Ying's arm.

There were 21 students in a class and only one vocal teacher, so many people came to ask Ye Ying spontaneously, calling him "Brother Ye" in a very affectionate way. Xu Qiongzhi asked suspiciously, "Are you guys pretending to be young? Ye Ying is not even 18 years old!" I am the only one younger than him here!

"This has nothing to do with age." Luo Zihui said solemnly, "With such strength, I must respectfully call you Big Brother!"

The boys laughed and joked for a while, then continued to practice seriously. The morning passed by unknowingly. After lunch and a nap, they started the dance class in the afternoon. The dance teacher took them through the dance, and then they started practicing on their own.

Everything went smoothly in Ye Ying's vocal class in the morning, and she was praised by the teacher as an excellent role model. However, when it came to the dance class in the afternoon, she was like riding a descending elevator, and went from being the top student in the class to being the last one.

People who have a dance foundation will be able to learn the dance very quickly because they have learned many basic movements and all they have to do is reorganize the chaotic movements in their minds.

But Ye Ying had no basics at all. His memory was strong and his reaction speed was not slow, but his eyes and brain did not work together this time, and his body and limbs were completely out of control. All his joints were extremely stiff, and he could not keep up with the rhythm even after jumping three times.

He gasped for breath, feeling a rare sense of helplessness in the matter of studying.

"Brother Ye, don't worry, I'll teach you!"

The classmates were all very enthusiastic. Ye Ying helped them win exclusive footage in the MV, and she patiently answered their vocal questions in the morning. Although these big boys didn't say it, they were very grateful in their hearts. Now they finally found the opportunity to "repay the favor" and immediately swarmed around her.

"Ye Ying, don't move your lower body during this movement. Keep your lower body steady."

"Here you need to reach your neck forward and lift your chin slightly...yes, yes, that's it!"

"You need to thrust your hips here... Look, thrust like me!"

It was of course a good thing to have someone to teach her, and Ye Ying was very grateful for the enthusiasm of her classmates, but the problem was...

There are too many people.

Seven or eight boys surrounded him and chattered, explaining and demonstrating the movements. Ye Ying couldn't keep up with them and her ears were about to explode.

Qiu Shuang said with a smile: "Okay, there are so many of you teaching together, who should he learn from? Let him digest it first, and then ask you if he doesn't understand."

The boys thought about it and said, "Then Ye Ying, feel free to ask any questions you have!" Then they dispersed and went back to practice.

"Don't worry, there are still four days left." Qiu Shuang comforted, "Your vocal music is fine, use the rest of the time to practice dancing, and you will definitely remember it."

Xu Qiongzhi also nodded vigorously: "It's hard to dance without any basic skills. Yingying, don't worry too much. If you have any questions, just come and ask me!"

Such encouragement and concern were somewhat unfamiliar to Ye Ying. He didn't know what to feel in his heart. The sound lingered on the tip of his tongue, and in the end he just whispered "thank you".

Qiu Shuang smiled and patted his shoulder generously: "We are all friends, you are welcome."

The afternoon classes lasted until 5:30, and there were no more classes in the evening, so students could rest or practice freely. Ye Ying had a simple meal and went back to practice for another three hours. Although she barely remembered the movements, her dancing was stiffer than a robot, as if every gear was barely rubbed in, but it was very stiff and dry, and it made a rough "creaking" sound when it turned, and it was facing collapse at any time.

"I'm so tired... I'll call it a day and continue tomorrow."

The students woke up early this morning, had a busy day of classes, and practiced independently until ten o'clock in the evening. They were so tired that they all prepared to go back to the dormitory to sleep.

"Yingying," Xu Qiongzhi was a little surprised to see that Ye Ying had no intention of leaving, "Aren't you going back yet?"

Ye Ying said, "Hmm," I want to stay a little longer."

Xu Qiongzhi wanted to stay with him, but her eyelids were drooping from sleepiness, and she wanted to go back and take a shower. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Come on, I'll accompany you tomorrow!"

Ye Ying waved at him, turned on the music, and danced again.

He had seldom exercised so much before. The muscles in his arms, thighs and waist were sore and painful, and his throat was dry from lack of water. He felt extremely uncomfortable.

He also understood that dancing was not his strong point, and it was undoubtedly a pipe dream to catch up with those who had put in years of hard work in just a few days, but he just didn't want to give up.

His character of doing everything to perfection and his extreme self-discipline made it impossible for him to accept being the worst.

Ye Ying picked up a towel and wiped the sweat off her chin. She couldn't stand the dryness in her throat anymore, so she left the practice room and went to the refrigerator to get some water. There were four practice rooms on this floor, one for each class. Most people had gone back to rest at this time, and only a few people were left in each class to practice.

At the end of the corridor is Class A's practice room. The door is half open and the theme song is playing inside, as well as the voices of several students talking.

The level of students in Class A is the highest and they learn quickly, but many of them stay behind to practice more. It seems that the competition here is more intense than imagined.

The more outstanding a person is, the more unwilling he is to fall behind others.

Ye Ying couldn't help but take a few steps closer, and through the half-open door, she saw a boy dancing.

The boy is tall and has long legs, a well-proportioned body, and every joint of his shoulders, arms, and knees is incredibly flexible. The same dance moves are particularly cool and beautiful when performed by him. He looks relaxed and casual, as if he is strolling on the street, but every move is precisely and perfectly timed, and at the same time combines amazing strength and beauty.

Ye Ying didn't realize that he held his breath involuntarily. When the music stopped and the boy pulled up the hem of his shirt to wipe his face, he suddenly came back to his senses.

Ye Ying gently let out the breath that was stuck in her chest. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, before she even raised her front foot, she suddenly heard the boy who had just finished dancing in the room shout, "You're leaving after watching this?"

He was stunned for a moment, looked up, and met He Xizhou's smiling eyes.

"Brother He, who are you talking to?" a student from Class A asked in the room.

"A little classmate." He Xizhou walked to the door with long legs and asked, "How is the dance practice going?"

The tone was familiar, as if this was not just the third time they met.

Ye Ying paused for a moment, and suddenly felt like a student who was caught by the dean for a random check of his homework: "...not so good."

"Come here." He Xizhou said as he walked into the room. His tone and movements were so natural, and he had a convincing aura. Ye Ying followed him in unconsciously and met the gaze of the students in Class A in the room.

There were six members of Class A who stayed behind for extra practice. They were all a little surprised to see Ye Ying. Li Jingfei nodded at him, and Ming Yuechen from Fenghua Entertainment also smiled at him.

He Xizhou turned on the music and turned around to ask, "Can you dance for me?"

Ye Ying was stunned for a moment, a little hesitant. He Xizhou then realized something, glanced at the people in the practice room who were paying attention to this place, and was about to say to Ye Ying, "Why don't we go out?", but Ye Ying had already started dancing to the beat.

His memory was indeed good. Even though he had no basic knowledge, he could still copy all the dance moves by rote memorization. But remembering does not mean dancing well. After the dance was over, Ye Ying clearly heard two students in Class A sneer without disguising.

He slowly calmed his breathing, his expression calm.

He was indeed much worse than others in dancing, so he had no reason to complain about being laughed at.

He Xizhou suddenly made a "tsk" sound and said in a rather strange tone: "It's normal to be able to dance like this after practicing for an afternoon, but some people have practiced for several years but are still half-baked. How dare you laugh at others?"

The two students didn't expect that He Xizhou would confront them in person for Ye Ying. They felt embarrassed for a moment. They wanted to fight back but it was unreasonable, and they couldn't afford to offend He Xizhou, so they threw their towels, stood up, closed the door and left without saying a word.

Ye Ying was also a little surprised: "You..."

"It's okay." He Xizhou snorted coldly, "This kind of person will never amount to anything."

Ye Ying is popular in Class B because he helps the students in Class B, but this may not be the case with others.

Only with camera shots can you get exposure, and only with exposure can you have the opportunity to attract fans and gain popularity. But not everyone can have camera shots, and only those students with explosive points will be edited into the program in the later stage.

The show has only been recorded for two days, and Ye Ying has already had several highlights?

The vocal skills on the first stage amazed the audience, and the super memory of the theme song once again sparked a topic, not to mention that it was revealed that she was the second place in the college entrance examination. With so many halos, how could she not be photographed? How could she not attract attention?

But his more shots mean that others have fewer shots.

The trainees all came here to debut and form a group. Who would be willing to go for nothing and be someone else's foil? No matter how friendly they were on the surface, they were secretly competitive. Seeing Ye Ying's successive successes, some people were inevitably jealous and naturally had no good attitude towards him.

He Xizhou got back to the point and looked at Ye Ying thoughtfully, as if he was thinking about his performance just now. He Xizhou's dancing skills were no less than those of professional instructors. Ye Ying thought she would be criticized badly, but she didn't expect the other party to say, "It seems that you are quite popular in class B."

Ye Ying: “?”

He Xizhou: "Your dancing looks like you were taught by several people, and your movements and habits are all different."

The eyes are really powerful. Ye Ying nodded: "I don't know how to dance, and I can't learn it by watching videos. I can only ask someone to teach me."

He Xizhou frowned: "Don't learn from them. The more you learn, the worse you will dance."

Ye Ying: “…”

Could you please not be so blunt?

"Come and learn from me in the remaining nights." He Xizhou raised his chin towards him, with a kind of arrogant and confident smile, but his words were completely irrefutable, "I am the most standard."
