The person who was ultimately chosen was a young man who looked old, but was actually a young man who had just come of age. He was not tall, thin and skinny, and had little expression on his face, looking somewhat fierce.
However, when he speaks, he has a kind of honest and simple feeling.
Shang Hongbing did not register online; he only showed up at Feiyang Entertainment on the day of the interview.
He used to farm in his hometown and stay with his grandparents. He heard that it was easy to find work on the island, so he came here with his friends from the village.
The travel expenses alone wiped out all his savings, and he even got separated from his friends after arriving on the island.
He ended up accidentally stumbling upon the audition site for the host of "Clash of the Gods". The staff mistakenly thought he hadn't agreed to the form, so they gave him an application form to fill out.
During the interview, he thought it was some strange place, wondering why everyone was competing to see who had the toughest life.
When it was his turn, all he said when a staff member asked him if he was brave was, "Yes." He didn't say anything else.
Lin Xiaoxiao was also dumbfounded. This person didn't seem to know how to host. He was like a saw, not moving or saying a word.
Well, I already said I'd leave it to fate, so let's leave it to fate. As for the show not being exciting enough or no one warming up the audience, we'll just have to think of other solutions.
However, Lin Xiaoxiao's worries were completely unnecessary.
When the five hundred contestants arrived at the audition site, they were all dressed in long robes or had shaved heads and were carrying fly whisks. Each one of them was more talkative than the last.
At the scene, someone dressed in cosplay costume said to the camera, "I have a sixth sense that is different from ordinary people."
"I am the true successor of Longhu Mountain."
"I am the thirty-seventh generation disciple of Longhu Mountain."
Before the host even entered the venue, people had already started arguing with each other. Upon closer listening, it was discovered that there were more than a dozen successors of Longhushan Mountain, and they didn't even know each other. Some even claimed that they were the true inheritors.
Fortunately, they didn't physically attack each other; they just muttered some kind of incantation, trying to curse each other.
The other person was not to be outdone, and even started walking in circles, holding a yellow talisman in his hand. After standing still, the yellow talisman burned.
This person realized that his own skillful cooking couldn't impress the other party.
The other party scoffed, "Hmph, we're all in this together, we all know each other, who do you think you can fool?!"
Before the host, Shang Hongbing, even entered the scene, they were already locked in a fierce battle—of course, it was a battle of momentum, not actual physical combat.
Of course, there are also many bald monks, some with ordination scars on their heads and some without. Some even revealed on camera that their families have worshipped household spirits for generations.
Suddenly, there are those who can see the future after waking up, those with the ability to see ghosts, those who can dream about many things, and those who claim to be the reincarnation of a silent immortal from the upper realm. Of course, there are also regulars with Taoist certificates and cultivation certificates.
All sorts of schools of thought gathered together.
Wow, so many people! I can't believe there are so many people in this industry!
[These are after the program team has selected the applicants; there are many more people who signed up.]
[Haha, I've seen several pieces of yellow paper spontaneously combust, and everyone else just ignores them. I've never thought this looked so funny before.]
[That's nothing. Didn't you see some people sitting there talking to thin air?]
Which one? There are quite a few.
[Why do I feel like I'm seeing ethnic minorities too?! Seriously? Tibetans are here too! Did they all travel all the way from the mainland to this little island? This is like a battle of the gods!]
[Isn't this just a war of the gods? The funniest thing is that the Longhu Mountain's heritage is ridiculously abundant.]
[There are Taoist priests from Maoshan?! Where is Maoshan?! Does anyone know? It sounds really powerful.]
[I even saw a feng shui master with a compass! He looked so young and handsome.]
[It's unbelievable that I'd see Taoist priests and Buddhist monks fighting one day! I was always curious about that when I watched zombie movies as a kid. Director Lin, if you're good at making movies, please make more.]
No, the first challenge is finding hidden boxes—twelve in total—within a twelve-hour time limit.
Shang Hongbing walked through the crowd, not even raising an eyebrow at those who were muttering things to him that he couldn't understand. After reading out the task, he simply stood still and pressed the button.
A giant countdown timer started lighting up.
[Exciting! There are twelve in total. The first one to find advances. So exciting!]
They all headed up the mountain, running incredibly fast, lifting their long robes and taking off as if afraid of being too slow. I felt a certain mystique surrounding these Taoist priests; they were just ordinary people, walking on foot, yet I subconsciously felt they might possess some kind of magical skill.
The feng shui master has started using the compass, but his brow is furrowed so tightly. Could something be wrong? I'm scared.
[Haha, someone even tried to test the host, hoping to deduce where the box was hidden by the host's reaction. The host didn't say a word, just stood there with his arms crossed, completely bewildered.]
[One contestant actually lay down and fell asleep!!! Wasn't he supposed to be searching? Why is he sleeping?!]
"Oh, you mean this? This person said her ability exists in dreams."
[That guy who claims to have an amazing sixth sense is actually throwing tree branches, hahaha, that's how I throw erasers during exams too.]
I don't know when the first answer will be submitted.
[This level seems to be two consecutive levels. The first level is to find a box, but nobody knows what the box looks like, or how big or small it is. The second level is to find the box and then describe what's inside. This design seems quite reasonable.]
