Chapter 168: Celestial Bane’s Debut!

Chapter 168: Celestial Bane’s Debut!

China’s Top Voice’s preliminaries came to an end. The semifinals and finals would be conducted on the next weekend.

Ye Lingchen left the hall immediately and took the bus home.

Chen Xiaoyan sent a private message to Ye Lingchen. [Y, thank you. China’s Top Voice just contacted me to discuss copyrights and collaborations with them. Moreover, Tencent Music and NetEase Music also contacted me separately. I’d like to listen to your thoughts on the matter.]

[Just accept the deal with the highest bidder,] Ye Lingchen replied.

He cared not for the money, but rather the sincerity of the other party.

Chen Xiaoyan was not expecting such a reply from Ye Lingchen. She was dumbfounded for a moment before finally replying, [Mm, okay.]

Singer Y’s Weibo went crazy with countless comments from netizens.

[Seniors are meant to be surpassed by their juniors! Only Y is qualified to say such a phrase!]

[Sob sob sob, Y’s song is too amazing. Hurry up and produce a record of Chaser of the Light and Boundless Sea and Sky please? I want to loop them indefinitely!]

[When will the third song come out? I’m looking forward to it!]

[Will Chen Xiaoyan continue to sing new songs for the semifinals? I love you!]

[Every song is a classic. I hope Y will continue this!]

…

Apart from the countless comments from the fans, there were also well-wishers from various music platforms.

Tencent Music, [Y’s songs are all classics. The lyrics are deep and the melody was expertly done. We hope to collaborate with Y!]

Cool Music, [When we heard Boundless Sea and Sky, we were all silent. This song is just too good, indescribably good, to the point that we didn’t dare interrupt! We only wanted to listen quietly. We hope that Y can come out with even better work. Of course, we would also love to collaborate with Y!]

NetEase Music, [Unbelievable! Y only used half a day to create a classic such as Boundless Sea and Sky fit the situation so well. We can’t deny that he’s a musical genius!

Countless comments from the morning lights[1] further flooded the page!

The comments section was fully taken over.

[Us morning lights are grateful to Sensei Y!]

[Hopefully, Sensei Y can continue his collaboration with Chen Xiaoyan.]

[Ahhh, I suddenly think that Sensei Y and Chen Xiaoyan are a good match for each other. Are they a couple?]

[Thank you Sensei Y for helping Chen Xiaoyan through that difficult time and allowed us to hear such a nice song. Thank you!]

[Who said that internet celebrities can’t make it big? We have all seen how much effort Chen Xiaoyan had put in. This is so moving!]

…

[Sensei Y, I’m Little Beanie from TikTok. Can you give me some guidance?]

[Sensei Y, I’m a livestreamer with decent singing skills. Can you have a look?]

[Sensei Y, can I have a sing-along[2] with you? Thank you very much!]

…

Countless private messages flooded in, with the majority of them asking for sing-alongs.

Ye Lingchen chose to ignore them.

He was not that bored yet.

Ring ring ring!

The sound of the phone awakened Ye Lingchen from his nap. It was from an unknown caller, but the number was quite amazing.

12345****.

With such an amazing number, he surmised that it had a 99.9 percent chance to be a scam call. Ye Lingchen cut off the call immediately and continued his nap.

Ring ring ring!

In just a moment, it started ringing again.

It was then quickly cut off.

Ring ring ring!

The third time!

That finally piqued Ye Lingchen’s attention. A normal scammer would never be so dedicated.

Out of curiosity, Ye Lingchen answered the phone.

“Hello, is this Ye Lingchen?”

Ye Lingchen raised his eyebrow at the familiar voice, then answered with a quiet hum.

“Hehe, I’m Zhang He, the president of Capital City Basketball Association [2]. Do you still remember me?”

A sudden realization dawned on Ye Lingchen. He laughed, “Of course I remember President Zhang.”

“Student Ye, I’ve been thinking about your proposal from before. It’s not impossible for you to have full freedom and exemption from training!” President Zhang announced, then continued, “The contract is drafted. Can you come over tomorrow to go through the details with us?”

“Of course!” Ye Lingchen nodded.

Both of them agreed on a meeting time and ended the call.

By the time he’s back in Hill Spring Residences, it was already 7pm.

Ye Lingchen sat in front of his computer and logged onto the author’s corner.

During this time, Celestial Bane had totaled over 60,000 words. Due to xianxia genre’s lack of popularity, the competition was lax and the novel had already gone on the new title recommendation for the third time.

The new title recommendation was the first recommendation for each new novel. It could only be considered a small push.

After a round of new title recommendations, one could roughly tell the future of that novel.

Compared to when it first started, Celestial Bane’s result was much better. With only three times of new title recommendations, the novel was added to the library of over five thousand people and had over two hundred reviews. That result was considered overwhelming.

As for this day, Yogurt had told Ye Lingchen to get more chapters ready as Celestial Bane was arranged for a PK.

PK was a very cruel system. Ten plus novels were recommended at one go. The ones that performed well would be sent into the next round of recommendations, then rinse and repeat. It was a trial by fire for the novels.

Ye Lingchen sat in front of his computer and tuned the world out, crunching out content on his keyboard.

Superpower, Secret Heritage, Displacement…chapter after chapter was written.

At the same time, Yuewen’s website was bustling with activity!

Celestial Bane was like a boulder dropped into a still lake, stirring up huge waves.

The exposure of a PK recommendation was far beyond the new title recommendation. Celestial Bane had entered the sights of even more readers!

[F*ck! F*ck! F*ck! Best book in the world! I can’t believe such an epic book exists in this world!]

[It’s too interesting. Author please update fasterrrrr!]

[I’ve just only realized the existence of this wonderful book online. It’s amazing!]

[OMG, I’m hooked even though I have never read any xianxia stories before. I didn’t expect it to be this nice. Author please keep it up!]

[It’s xianxia! Finally a real xianxia novel! I’ve been waiting for so long, this godly creation is finally here!]

Other than those comments, the gifts section had also turned lively.

[(Gift) User Mewtwo gifted Celestial Bane 6666 coins! This book is amazing! Here’s some support. Hopefully, the following chapters will be more interesting!]

[(Gift) User Lingyun Dream gifted Celestial Bane 6666 coins! This book is amazing! Here’s some support. Hopefully, the following chapters will be more interesting!]

…

The page was uniformly flooded with gifts and favorable comments. The PK had only started for a short time, yet he had already received over a hundred gifts. A shocking sight to behold.

Before PK, Celestial Bane was merely placed 21st on the new title rankings. However, after PK, it finally rose in rank at a terrifying speed. Blowing the minds of all that witnessed it!

By the time Ye Lingchen uploaded his third chapter for the day, two hours had passed. His recommendation votes went from 8,967 to 13,567 in an explosive manner.

Of course, Ye Lingchen did not even notice those things. Instead, he washed up and went to bed…

[2] 约歌 (literally, singing date). Sing-along is a feature in Kugou Music (given the pseudonym of Cool music by the author) that allows users to sing-along with friends, similar to Smule.

[3] The same person gifted him twice. It’s not a duplicate.
