"Heavens… Who on earth is that participant?" Elder Jing mumbled in a dazed voice as he stared at the figure wearing a black jade mask with wide eyes.

'This Yuan… He wasn't using all of his abilities during our one-on-one? Was he… looking down on me?' Song Ling'er stared at Yuan with clear disbelief in her eyes.

It was simply unthinkable that someone would look down on her— the Sect Master of the Heavenly Melody Academy, feeling an indescribable sensation in her heart after learning this.

Of course, Yuan wasn't purposefully looking down on Song Ling'er during their one-on-one; it was just that he didn't feel being so serious in a friendly competition between two zither players, and he saw it more of a friendly spar.

However, as someone who was conditioned to perform his very best during competitions, now that he was actually participating in one, he'd unconsciously flipped his 'serious' switch on and played the zither with absolute focus and seriousness, especially since this is a music competition.

Meanwhile, the audience and the participants alike stared at Yuan with shock and disbelief written all over their faces. Although most of the spectators didn't comprehend the situation and just how amazing Yuan's performance just now truly was, they knew that it was the best thing they've heard today and most likely their entire lives.

As for the other participants, they were gobsmacked by Yuan's performance, and they could still see the illusion of flowers even though many moments had passed since they heard the three music notes!

'Yuan… you…'

Even Fei Yuyan was staring at Yuan with a gawking expression on her face, feeling her heart racing at this moment.

After a long moment of silence that lasted for a few minutes, Song Ling'er finally snapped out of her daze, and for the first time in this competition, she gave a verdict first, "Ten points."
