At this time, Ashe, who was in the last round of the first round, finally stepped onto the stage.

For him, he could only perform this song as if it were his last one.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't under a lot of pressure.

Now Ashe's heart is still pounding, and his little heart is about to jump out of his chest.

But the more this happens, the more Ashe feels like she can perform better when singing. This must be a kind of external pressure!

Su Yin stared at Ai Xi, and for some reason, she could see a sense of tragedy in her.

"I only now realize how fiercely competitive our show is. With so many people competing, the fact that you've made it this far is incredible."

"But if you want to go further, you will face more challenges. Especially since your opponents are improving, even if you maintain your previous level, you will still be at a disadvantage."

Listening to Su Yin's words, Lin Xuan'er beside her agreed deeply:

"That's true. I don't think the audience really cares about whether you've made a breakthrough. Look at Sister Wen Yuan. She didn't change her style tonight. She stayed in her comfort zone."

"But so what? As long as she improves on her existing style, the audience will give her positive feedback."

Tang Yue nodded, glanced at Su Yin, and then said:

"I don't really know much about rap, but I think Ash's performances in every episode have been pretty much the same, except for the time when he sang a love song that really impressed me."

"It just feels very ordinary, without too many highlights."

Wang Xingrui hummed, "As for rap, it seems like it's not easy to improve, especially for us laymen to hear the difference."

"Look at Xiao Xiao Su. When she first started rapping, she was a bit like the Alvin and the Chipmunks. But when she learned to rap fast, melodious, and rhyme, we thought she was amazing. But after more than a year, Xiao Xiao Su feels the same to me now, but maybe she has actually improved."

Su Yin coughed and said:

"But honestly, I have made some progress. Just like you said, not a lot."

"Anyway, for Ashe, if he wants to change his fate this round and continue rapping, it's basically impossible. But he probably doesn't have the courage to do anything fancy in such a crucial game as the finals."

Su Yin is indeed very good at judging people.

Ashe still brought a rap this time. Compared with the previous one, it is a melodic rap and sounds very pleasant.

However, the problem is also obvious. This is not the first time that the audience has listened to Ash's melodic rap, and the same sense of novelty as before is no longer there.

Most importantly, his performance looked very ordinary, which made people lose the desire to comment.

Tang Yue shook her head. "I don't even know if he's already decided to give up, but I really think he should be fourth tonight."

Su Yin sighed a bit, "It's still this style of music; it's a bit niche. You can get to the top with dedicated fans, no problem. But getting first place is absolutely impossible without idiomatic discs. Speaking of which, if it was Aovina who made it to the finals in the American region, maybe the results would be different."

"That's true." Wang Xingrui nodded. "Her singing skills, performance experience, and music style are all particularly suitable for this competition."

"But her popularity has indeed never increased."

At this time, many American audiences looked a little sad.

Ashe's performance even stopped them from getting excited.

It has neither the shocking live effects of Wen Yuan nor the unforgettable stage performance of Moonlight Girl.

He just stood on the stage alone and sang a song under the lights.

If you don’t know, you might think he is a guest invited by the program team to warm up the audience!

Of course, the audience was unhappy, but they still had to give him the tickets.

After Ashe stepped down, he walked straight across the corridor and punched the wall hard.

"Depend on!"

He frowned and showed a desperate expression.

His agent happened to pass by him at that moment. He sighed, "It can't be helped. It has nothing to do with your performance. It's really just the limitations of the music style. Think about it, we're already pretty good at making it to the finals."

"I know." Ashe touched his nose. "I originally thought that winning this tournament was easy. Now I see how stupid I was at the beginning. How could I have been so blindly confident?"

The manager patted Ash's shoulder and said, "That's not confidence. You simply didn't expect this kind of result. Who would have thought that there are so many outstanding singers in the world besides Moonlight Girl?"

"This isn't without its benefits. At least it's made many of our American peers realize that our music is no longer leading the pack, and that many are catching up fast. Perhaps it's time for us to learn from China."

"It still sounds a bit awkward." Ai Xi touched his nose. "But you're right, Chinese music is on the rise now. With Moonlight Girls and Zhou Yiyang, this is normal. Most importantly, Zhou Yiyang has also improved various systems. From selection, to promotion, song promotion, to awards, everything is formalized."

"Yeah," the agent smiled. "He's really amazing. Can you imagine? A few years ago, China couldn't even compare to Korea and Japan in music. But now, they're getting stronger and stronger, with a wide fan base all over the world. Most importantly, in addition to Moonlight Girls, they can also promote other outstanding people."

On the other side, Jin Xiuyu has already gone on stage.

When she finished watching Ashley's performance, a smug expression appeared on her face.

This is very true, Ashe's poor performance is actually a good thing for her.

Jin Xiuyu also calmed down and prepared for the next performance.

Now her only opponent is Wen Yuan. All she has to do is to stabilize her performance and do her best within her ability.

Tang Yue first took a look at Jin Xiu Yu's dress. She had to say that it was quite bright and beautiful, which made people feel amazing at first sight.

"She chose this dress very well. It exposes a large part of her back. Her back is really beautiful."

"But this outfit," Su Yin raised her eyebrows, "doesn't look like something for dancing? So, is Jin Xiuyu's second song a slow one?"

"That's normal!" Lin Xuan'er said, "She's actually a 50/50 split between fast and slow songs. The slow songs require more technique, though. I wonder how her voice is tonight."

Kim Soo-ok picked up the microphone and sang the theme song of a Goryeo TV series that was very popular all over the world.
