Chapter 133, third update, a book titled "The Princess's Growth Record"...
A novel titled "The Princess's Growth Record" and two songs that complement the plot are enough to completely captivate the naive beastmen.
In just seven days, singer Shadow and author Cat have become household names in the beastman world.
Songs with lyrics have finally entered the public eye. No matter who you are, you can't deny that when a melody is combined with corresponding lyrics, it's not just a matter of one plus one equals two, but a shock greater than two.
"Well done! Your idea is brilliant, let's release a few more songs right away!" Anke sent the message early in the morning.
Sang Zhitao jumped out of her chicken coop, ate a few bites of grain, and then flew to the table.
Connecting the converter, looking at the screen, he replied, "My typing speed can't keep up with the song's pace. Without the novel, people won't understand the lyrics. I'll finish writing a few plot points first, and then upload them slowly."
Anke tried to persuade her a few more times, but seeing that she was determined, she could only give up and continue to persuade her: "Okay, then would you like to participate in a program? There's a singing competition event recently."
Sang Zhitao opened the link sent by Anke. It was an event jointly produced by the largest television station in the orc world and several well-known entertainment companies.
To prevent excessive idolization of certain animal forms from affecting fairness, participants are required to register using humanoid characters.
This is also why Anke came to find her. After all, she had already told Anke that she would not show herself. Although Anke did not know the reason, she could guess that it might be because of her beast form. After all, there are always some beastmen who are unwilling to show their true form due to various reasons such as physical defects or ugly fur.
Sang Zhitao flipped through the event details and discovered that this was not only a competition that tested singing skills, but also the number of songs the singers knew or their own creative abilities.
Because all songs are drawn by lottery on the spot and performed live, if you don't have enough songwriting ability or don't know many songs, you'll basically be eliminated on the spot.
“Okay.” Sang Zhitao thought for a moment. In the original book, the original owner also participated in this event and even met the love of her life because of it.
Anke was overjoyed to receive her reply and quickly asked for her address and body data, planning to make her a few battle robes first and then customize a few sets of jewelry for her.
Sang Zhitao knew that An Ke was a high-ranking nobleman in the beastman world, who was not only powerful but also rich, so she naturally didn't stand on ceremony with her.
In the days that followed, Sang Zhitao basically spent her time in a cycle of writing novels, finding songs, singing songs, and uploading songs.
She spent the rest of the time discussing the competition with Anke. By the time the competition was about to start, her first novel was basically finished.
Finally, she uploaded a song called "Castle": "I walked straight to the castle, where its subjects treated me like a queen..."
A song known on Earth as the queen's coronation anthem brought the life of the former Princess Moon, now Queen Moon, to a close.
This fast-paced and powerful song was extremely popular among orcs who revered strength, and it quickly became a hit in the orc world, especially among young people, almost everyone had heard it.
In shops throughout the streets and alleys, this song is used as background music. Every customer who walks into a shop to this song is moved by this nameless passion and ends up buying more items than expected.
"I never knew you were so beautiful!" Anke was a woman nearing thirty. She had thought the singer, Shadow, was a cool and aloof young man, but she was surprised to find an extremely cute girl.
Sang Zhitao twitched her lips. She was so happy being a little yellow chick that she forgot she could become human.
When she transformed to give Anke her measurements, she looked at herself in the mirror and was speechless.
Standing at 1.42 meters tall, with a chubby baby face, creamy yellow hair, and short arms and legs, he looks only eleven or twelve years old.
Although she was somewhat speechless, she still chose to give Anke her measurements, thinking that Anke wouldn't do anything about it once she knew her measurements.
But she never expected that the other party would not even look at the size and directly hand it over to a private tailor, which is why she showed this kind of aunt-like smile when she saw her for the first time today.
"Speaking of which, are you really nineteen years old?" An Ke hugged Sang Zhitao and kneaded her for a while before finally pulling her out of his arms and asking curiously.
Sang Zhitao, who was already nearly suffocating from being buried under those weapons, nodded with a slight dizziness.
"Oh! So cute~" Seeing her like this, An hugged her and kissed her a few more times before saying with some concern, "What if you draw an uncommon word? Such a cute little girl would really be at a disadvantage."
"Which ones are considered niche?" Sang Zhitao asked curiously.
Anke thought for a moment and said, "You're not fierce at all when you sing about killers or demons. It's easy to lead people astray no matter how you sing."
Sang Zhitao thought for a moment. In the beastman world, the portrayal of such heinous characters as murderers is basically limited to the most basic level: fierce and evil is extreme evil, and gentle and kind is kind.
She stroked her chin and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of these people. I'll show you what another kind of evil is."
She thought of all the portrayals of villains on Earth, especially the expressions of seemingly innocent and well-behaved girls when they committed heinous acts, and she felt an even stronger urge to show the beastman world what villains were like.
"Hello, contestant number 68, please prepare to enter." A staff member came over to inform them.
“This event involves many families, so you don’t need to worry about fairness. The rest is up to you.” An Ke gave her a big hug before watching her go inside.
"Welcome to the Soul Singer Competition. Today's contestants are the internet celebrity and top lyricist, Shadow, and the classic old song cover artist, Lazy Rabbit."
"Please have the two contestants draw lots to select the performance material for this round."
As soon as the host finished speaking, a button rose up on the stage. Sang Zhitao and the boy opposite her exchanged a glance, then took a few steps forward together and came to the button.
"The number one lyricist?! Hmph, I'll show you what real lyric writing is!" Lazy Rabbit raised her chin slightly and glanced at him arrogantly.
Because Sang Zhitao wrote the lyrics ahead of time, the entire competition differed from what was written in the novel; at least the people who faced off in the first duel were different.
Even so, Sang Zhitao didn't care about the other party's attitude. After all, this kind of person looked like a vicious cannon fodder, the kind who would be slapped in the face very quickly.
Lazy Rabbit, seeing that she was ignoring her, gave a disgruntled snort and raised a finger to lightly tap the button.
Sang Zhitao glanced down at him and pressed down with his force.
The word "cat" quickly appeared on the large screen above.
"Cat?" Sang Zhitao was taken aback; she hadn't expected the competition's word to be so abstract.
"Hmph, you're doomed!" Lazy Rabbit smiled smugly and turned back to the preparation area.
Sang Zhitao couldn't help but twitch her eye, and speechlessly walked towards the preparation area behind her.
"The keyword for this match is cat. Both contestants, please decide on the song format. If you choose an existing song, you can start the match immediately. If you choose a self-composed song, you need to submit it in ten minutes."
After both contestants had made their decisions, the host continued, "Both contestants have chosen songs that are already available. Now we will draw lots to determine the order of selection."
"Congratulations to Lazy Rabbit for performing first. Shadow, please get ready."
Lazy Rabbit walked triumphantly to the center of the stage. The opening melody was very lively, just like a kitten dancing. Then came a song with lyrics he had written, which told the story of a kitten playing outdoors. It sounded very cute, with very ornate and sophisticated lyrics. You could vaguely see traces of imitation of Sang Zhitao's previous songs.
Aside from a few English songs, the lyrics for Sang Zhitao's songs are mostly in the ancient style, with elegant and beautiful lyrics, but they are not suitable for a theme like cats.
So although Sang Zhitao was somewhat surprised that he would choose to write lyrics for a song, and was also surprised that his lyric-writing skills were actually quite good, he wasn't worried, since it still sounded a bit out of place.
but……
Sang Zhitao frowned slightly. The word "cat" was an extremely obscure one, yet the other party happened to have a song with lyrics already written on it, which showed that the other party had prepared in advance. This was interesting.
Anke clearly said that this competition was very fair, but now this situation has occurred, which is enough to show that Anke's words are not so accurate.
She narrowed her eyes slightly. This competition was very different from the original book in terms of both format and participants. She couldn't be sure if it was still the same person from the original book who was making the move, but the one who could keep it from An Ke must also be a nobleman.
She didn't know that Anke, who was offstage, was even more shocked than she was. When she saw the title "Cat," Anke just frowned. After all, with several nobles involved and a stage set up by several major companies and a TV station, it was understandable that the title was a bit off-topic.
When An Ke saw Lazy Rabbit directly present a song with lyrics that met the requirements, she instantly had a bad feeling. This sense of crisis turned into a tense atmosphere, and she immediately took out her phone and dialed a number.
"You plotted against me?!" she demanded directly.
A cool male voice came from the other end of the phone. He chuckled twice: "Where did you scheme?"
Anke gave a mocking smile and recounted the whole story: "If you hadn't leaked the questions, I don't believe he just happened to have prepared a song with suitable lyrics!"
"Why not? She's a star promoted by the Rabbit Clan, it's normal." The man didn't care about her questioning at all.
"What exactly do you want to do?!" Anke felt that the man's words were full of calculation.
Before the man could reply, she continued, "I don't care what you're planning to do, but you can't scheme against my people. If you do this again in the next match, don't blame me for turning against you."
The man seemed to recall Anke's past achievements, cleared his throat, and softened his voice: "I understand. I will tell the rabbit clan. Don't worry."
After listening, Anke silently agreed and then hung up the phone.
It's not that she doesn't want to turn against them now, but there are too many people watching this competition, some of whom are even more powerful than her family. She herself isn't highly regarded by her family, so she doesn't dare to or has the ability to resist them. All she can do is use her family's influence to deter them from going too far.
With a heavy sigh, Anke took the phone and returned to her seat.
It was now Sang Zhitao's turn to appear. She had originally chosen another song, but after hearing the song with lyrics written by Lazy Rabbit, she changed it at the last minute.
"Cat Duet" is a song composed entirely of the word "meow" by an Earth composer.
And she will show the other party a song that she can perfectly perform, even if it only has one lyric.
