Three months is enough time for her to understand the world.
This kingdom called Music Kingdom is a country where music reigns supreme. Everyone here can sing, especially the girls, who all come to the castle to learn to sing for a year before they turn 10.
Therefore, what she thought was a school was not a school at all, but rather the castle where Princess Taya lived. And the place they lived in was the princess's territory.
It is said that singing can defeat dragons. And the content of the songs must be something you experience for yourself.
To be honest, this feels really absurd, incredibly absurd. But everyone here is taking it very seriously.
The problem is, Shang Qu herself can't sing, and besides, she prefers martial arts to singing.
However, Shang Qu discovered that although Princess Taya never personally taught them to sing, she had perfect pitch and her ears were extremely sensitive; she could always tell if someone wasn't singing.
Shang Qu didn't want to be beheaded for not speaking, so she started singing when others were singing.
Shang Qu just remembered that when she first sang, she was just doing it to get it over with, so she felt that all she had to do was make a sound.
Seeing the children here all belting out high notes right from the start, she also yelled at the top of her lungs, "That's a magical road to heaven, hey hey~~~!"
"puff!"
As soon as Shang Qu sang a line, he saw Taya, who was drinking black tea in front of him, spit out the tea.
Shang Qu found it strange that the elegant princess was making such an unseemly gesture, but when she saw Taya Chao looking over, she was startled and continued, "Bring the warmth of humanity to the frontier."
"green......"
"Alright, shut up!" Seeing that Taya had already walked up to him, Shang Qu blinked his innocent eyes, pretending to be young.
"You sounded awful from the very first line. What's wrong with your voice?"
Taya was met with Shangqu's innocent gaze.
In truth, Shang Qu was thinking, "I'm just not cut out for singing, so please let me leave early."
However, to Shang Qu's surprise, Taya's reply was: "From today onwards, you will stay in the castle, and I will give you extra training! Within our territory, there will be absolutely no one who is tone-deaf!"
No, why act impulsively? She doesn't care. So what if she's tone-deaf? As long as she's skilled in martial arts, that's all that matters.
But it's clear that Taya is very serious about this, and she actually trains her to practice her voice every day.
This training lasted for three months, leaving her with only time to practice martial arts during her evening rest periods.
Moreover, she couldn't open her own space and couldn't use medicine to improve her physical condition, which greatly hindered her practice of internal energy cultivation.
Fortunately, it was only a year. Shang Qu could only sigh and hope that she could find the medicinal herbs she needed in this world after she was free.
"You're actually distracting me! You're the most talentless child I've ever seen!"
Shang Qu's response was simply to blink innocently.
Taya laughed in exasperation: "Stop acting like that! Do you think I'm still the same person I was when we first met? If you dare to use your voice again today, I'll..."
Before Taya could finish speaking, a guard rushed in anxiously: "Princess, something terrible has happened! A dragon has attacked the city!"
Taya, who was still angry, suddenly became serious: "The dragon has awakened ahead of schedule? Send word to everyone to the underground shelter!"
After saying that, Taya glanced at the innocent Shang Qu and said, "Take her away too."
After saying that, Taya left without looking back.
Shang Qu had known Taya for three months, and this was the first time he'd seen her so serious. But... do dragons really exist in this world?
Taking advantage of the guards' distraction, Shang Qu casually said, "I'm going to find Angie! We'll go into the shelter together." Then, he flashed away, avoiding the crowd, and headed in the direction Taya had just left.
From the guard's perspective, everyone knew how to get to the shelter, and he didn't think Shang Qu would have missed it. Therefore, he overlooked her presence.
Just as Shangqu lost track of Taya, he suddenly heard a beautiful song.
That voice? It's Taya!
The instant Taya's voice came out, Shang Qu suddenly felt himself making contact with space.
Shang Qu was both amused and exasperated, so the way she opened her space was through Taya's singing.
Just as Shang Qu was speechless, she suddenly saw a bird fall straight down from the sky. Then she felt that the surroundings were extremely quiet, as if the whole world had become quiet.
Even she herself felt a little sleepy.
Wait, feeling sleepy? So, can Taya's voice put people to sleep?
Not wanting to be disturbed by the music, Shang Qu used her internal energy to shield her hearing. Her drowsiness vanished. Only then did she realize she had guessed correctly.
Knowing where the sound had just come from, Shang Qu ran straight towards the sound.
From afar, Shang Qu could see Taya standing on the high platform of the castle, singing loudly. At that moment, she was like a singer, radiating dazzling light on the stage.
Shangqu then realized that Taya not only had perfect pitch, but also sang very well.
However, her singing voice has a magical quality, so she shouldn't sing easily.
However, compared to Taya's singing, Shangqu was more curious about the giant dragon.
Do dragons really exist in this world?
Just as Shang Qu thought this, she felt the ground tremble. And the tremors became more and more frequent. Just when Shang Qu thought it was an earthquake, she saw that the area outside the castle, which she had always thought was a large mountain, began to move.
Then, the mountain suddenly stood up and shot a long line of fire into the air.
Shang Qu stared wide-eyed at the scene before her, unable to believe what she was seeing. The enormous black creature in front of her, which looked like a dragon with four legs, resembled a Qilin, but was much longer and had wings, must be the giant dragon that people here often talked about.
So, dragons really do exist?
Is Nataya singing to make the dragon fall back into sleep?
But why does Shangqu feel that the dragon not only doesn't sleep, but is even more agitated?
As the dragon approached, and Taya continued singing, Shang Qu had a bad feeling.
Ignoring the risk of being exposed, she quickly pulled Taya away the instant the dragon breathed fire at her.
This was the first time Shang Qu had seen a hint of fear in Taya's eyes. But it was only for a moment; her pride wouldn't allow her to show weakness in front of her people.
"What are you doing here? Why aren't you asleep? Did my singing not work?"
The moment Shangqu pulled away from Taya, he regained his hearing. Hearing Taya's words, Shangqu explained, "I plugged my ears. Now is not the time to talk about this. Do you know its weakness?"
