After her explosive announcement, Song Ling'er returned to her seat in a casual manner, almost like it was just another day for her.

Meanwhile, the crowd exploded into another commotion.

"Senior Fairy Song will be accepting another disciple?! But if I remember correctly, she'd mentioned that she won't be accepting any more disciples after accepting her current two disciples six years ago!"

However, not everybody was excited about Song Ling'er's announcement.

"She's really sneaky… I didn't think she would strike back so quickly…" Elder Shan felt her eyebrows twitch upon hearing Song Ling'er's announcement.

"Since she already knows that Disciple Yuan has what it takes to achieve first place if not guaranteed to take first place, she purposefully announced that she'll accept the first place as her disciple to use the crowd to pressure Disciple Yuan into accepting. What a brilliant yet shameless move!" Elder Xuan shook his head, unsure whether to laugh or cry at Song Ling'er's desperate attempt to force Yuan into joining the Heavenly Melody Academy.

"What if Disciple Yuan doesn't actually achieve first place? What then? Will she simply change her mind?" Xuan Wuhan couldn't help but that.

"No, that's not possible. Although there are two other judges there, Senior Song's judgement will easily outweigh their judgement. If she says first place belongs to Disciple Yuan, he will undoubtedly get first place! Who will dare to refute her judgement? Who has the credentials to challenge her judgement? Nobody!" Elder Xuan explained to her. "Furthermore, with Disciple Yuan's abilities, nobody would find Senior Song's judgement unfair!"

"T-This is really unfair! A scandal! How can someone as prestigious as Senior Song lower herself to such a degree just to recruit Disciple Yuan? I cannot understand this…" Xuan Wuhan sighed.

Elder Xuan and Elder Shan looked at Xuan Wuhan with weird looks. If Xuan Wuhan knew just how talented Yuan was, she would understand Song Ling'er's desperation. In fact, if the roles were reversed, their Sect Master Long Yijun would undoubtedly be doing the same thing as Song Ling'er— doing whatever he could to poach Yuan.

Sometime later, Senior Zou cleared his throat, and he spoke in a clear voice, "Now let's talk about the competition itself."

"There will be three different parts in the competition, and you will be scored from one to ten by each judge. At the end of the competition, whichever team has the most points will be declared first place."
