As the previous singers performed,
the gap between them gradually became apparent.
Especially the new replacement singer named Zhan Ma, who almost crushed Hei Wu Shi to win.
Moreover, Zhan Ma started with a song that emphasized breath control, clearly challenging An Ye Tu.
"Well done!"
"An Ye Tu has met his match this time."
"Haha, Zhan Ma will teach you what breath control is!"
"I'm dying of laughter, An Ye Tu needs Zhan Ma to teach him breath control, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard."
"No spoilers, these haters don't have much time to be happy, let's enjoy the show!"
In the barrage of comments, many haters, seeing how powerful Zhan Ma was and how impressive his breath control was, immediately thought he was a contender for the King of Singers this week.
However, every now and then, a few comments said things that others couldn't understand.
What did "don't have much time to be happy" mean?
Finally.
An Ye Tu took the stage.
The screen also displayed the information for his first song.
"Qiqiu"
Performed by: An Ye Tu
Lyrics by: Ting Yu
Music by: Ting Yu
As the first verse began.
All the viewers were stunned.
The overwhelming barrage of comments also visibly decreased.
"Hiss... holy crap!"
Du Shangcun jumped so high off the sofa that his phone slipped from his hand due to his sudden movement.
It fell to the ground with a crack, the screen shattering, but the sound persisted.
"Black, white, red, yellow,
purple, green, blue, gray,
yours, mine, his, hers..."
The song playing from the phone seemed to mock Du Shangcun, making him feel terrible.
Du Shangcun quickly walked over to the phone on the ground and bent down to pick it up.
He tenderly touched the cracks on the screen.
The entire screen had five cracks running through it, and it had shattered into a spiderweb pattern from hitting the floor tiles in the upper right corner.
The screen was completely black and unreadable.
"It's broken!"
Du Shangcun grumbled as he pressed the power button on the side.
But he still wanted to watch the show, so he had to grab a tablet from the nearby coffee table.
At this time.
An Ye Tu's "Qiqiu" had finished.
The style of the comments had also changed.
"Haha, surprised?"
"This is what you guys said about An Ye Tu's breath control being bad?"
"Hiss... this is too amazing!"
"I was trying to follow along with the lyrics, and I ran out of breath halfway through. Let alone him singing, his lung capacity is truly terrifying!"
"Cracked! With his lung capacity, is he even human?"
At this moment, the audience was shocked.
Those who had been criticizing An Ye Tu were now silent.
This song perfectly showcased An Ye Tu's lung capacity.
It could absolutely be described as terrifying!
The elimination round didn't garner much attention.
Everyone was still immersed in the terrifying "Qiqiu" by An Ye Tu.
Only when the elimination spots were announced did people snap back to reality.
This week, the old faces of "Qiqiu Queen" and "Hei Wu Shi" were actually eliminated.
That's right, the remaining one was the replacement singer "Gu Du De Yue Liang," who had lost to An Ye Tu.
When "Qiqiu Queen" revealed her face, no one was surprised, as her identity had already been guessed by most.
It was Zhang Xiaoqi, whom everyone had called "ill-fated."
With tears in her eyes, she bowed deeply to the audience.
She was already very satisfied with her journey so far.
Being able to return to the stage, sing so many songs, and even sing a song by Teacher Ting Yu, she had no regrets.
Moreover, Zhang Xiaoqi was filled with hope for the future, as she had already joined the singer group of Teacher Ting Yu.
This meant she was one of Teacher Ting Yu's people, and she would have opportunities to sing his songs in the future!
When "Hei Wu Shi" revealed his face.
Everyone was greatly surprised.
They had a very deep impression of him.
This Vietnamese singer was the "King of Pretension," Zhu Xinyu, who had been completely dominated by Zhang Wei's "Fu Huang" in the city competition.
Furthermore, Hu Yang, who wrote his song, had created the largest point difference in the city competition.
He was almost shaved bald.
"I love this stage, goodbye!"
Zhu Xinyu placed a finger on his lips and gave a very nonchalant kiss to the audience.
Zhu Xinyu enjoyed putting on a show, and even when he was embarrassed after a failed attempt, he felt no shame; it was his fun, which was why he had such powerful stage presence.
As the two singers were eliminated.
The King of Singers competition for this episode began.
An Ye Tu still performed last.
After Wu Mian Qi Shi and Zhan Ma finished their performances.
An Ye Tu took the stage.
Standing by the piano.
"Mei Li Kai Guo"
Performed by: An Ye Tu
Lyrics by: Ting Yu
Music by: Ting Yu
When the song information appeared.
The comments suddenly increased.
"High energy ahead!"
"High energy ahead!"
"Here it comes! Here it comes!"
"High energy ahead, god-tier live performance preview!"
"Haha, everyone get seated, the moment of sustained output is coming!"
Even Guan Xian sat up straight and posted "High energy ahead" in the comments.
When he heard "Mei Li Kai Guo" live, he almost peed himself!
It could indeed be called a god-tier live performance.
As An Ye Tu began to sing.
Du Shangcun watched the tablet nervously, his heart growing restless.
Although the first half of the song was very nice, it didn't feel extraordinarily difficult.
However, in the latter part, it soared!
"I gazed at the distant peak, but missed the turning intersection..."
The camera swept over An Ye Tu.
He stood quietly by the piano, with no extraneous movements.
Nor did he seem to be singing with heart-wrenching emotion.
It was as if he was singing plainly, but his song was far from plain!
A series of high notes exploded, with no audible breaths, making Du Shangcun's mind buzz.
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!"
His teeth gritted together.
He gasped for air.
This was too outrageous!
"I'm stunned, this vocal pressure is god-tier!"
"Compared to the previous song 'Qiqiu,' this song is definitely a bombshell. The demands on singing skill, pitch, and breath control are all too high!"
"Damn, how did he manage such a smooth diminuendo to crescendo?"
"In the latter half, I couldn't hear any breathing points at all, you might as well call it 'no breathing'!"
"Too brutal, whether it's Ting Yu or An Ye Tu, the two of them combined are mercilessly slapping the haters' faces!"
"My mom asked me why I was listening to the song on my knees!"
When the entire song finished.
Everyone was shocked.
An Ye Tu's performance of this song was truly terrifying.
The long, perfect final section included almost all the techniques in the song.
This performance, even if placed in the finals, would definitely give "Jia Mian Ge Wang" a stable presence.
It could be considered somewhat wasteful to place this song here.
However, many people also knew the reason: this song by An Ye Tu was undoubtedly the best answer to the public opinion!
