Chapter 474: Turn the Tide
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Of course, you can choose to take a break if you want to be ousted in the first round.” Shen Xi added while staring at the skeptical-looking trainees.
The trainees signed up to join the show and went through screening by the production team, not to be out in the competition before it even began. It was everyone’s dream to go into showbiz.
Moreover, every dog had its day. They were only dejected and discouraged only because the production crew planned to sacrifice them by putting the irresponsible mentor first.
The trainees felt the heat through Yun Xiao’s words. Even if they were about to be eliminated and knocked out in the first round, they were going to make a grand exit and show the fans and mentors their hard work and improvement. They were not leaving with a tail between their legs.
Standing in the forefront, Shen Xi led the dance. From the get-go, no one could take their eyes away from her suave movements that spoke of nothing but precision.
Group F members had a trained eye to discern by the first move of his arm that Yun Xiao was skilled in this dance.
Whatever the truth, be it a last-minute preparation on Yun Xiao’s part, or a script arranged by the production crew, or maybe he was a professional dancer; the trainees were filled with hope and the will to fight, fully aware that they were not ditched by their mentor and the production team.
As a qualified teacher, Shen Xi taught them the dance while breaking down the steps for them to get the gist. At the same time, she eyed every single person in the mirror and corrected their movements and mistakes.
It dawned on Group F that Mr. Yun Xiao made a complicated dance appear rather simple.
Mr. Yun Xiao might not say much, but every word that came out of his mouth was on point. Similar to the assessment he wrote about them in his notebook, Mr. Yun Xiao hit the nail on the head about his observation on them. They could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Nevertheless, Mr. Yun Xiao was a strict teacher. He seemed to have eyes at the back of his head as he was able to keep an eye on every trainee and pick up on any slight mistake they made.
At this point, they would be stupid to think Mr. Yun Xiao learned the dance at the last minute. He was definitely a highly trained dancer.
Han Yan watched through the mirror everybody’s expression going from skepticism to shock and trust, before pure admiration finally. Feeling that she was no longer alone in this whirlwind of emotions, Han Yan danced her heart out.
Last night, she had the same exact expression when she saw Mr. Yun Xiao dancing.
Ye Weiyang kept working hard on her dance. However, she was happy to see Group F approving of Mr. Yun Xiao.
Gu Yang went to observe all the groups starting from Group A. There was nothing much to worry about in Group A and B, but Group C and D did take more of his time.
Group C’s mentor, Su Muyan was a singing idol and did not have a professional background in dancing while Group D’s mentor, Xia Mi was a professional dancer but not a professional singer. Gu Yang would need to pay mind to these groups.
Gu Yang arrived at Group F’s studio an hour later. Pushing the door open, he was shocked to find Mr. Yun Xiao leading Group F in their dance practice.
Mr. Yun Xiao turned out to be quite the dancer! Cosmos Entertainment did not send an amateur to the show. It was all their presumption.
It was hard to tell where Mr. Yun Xiao stood proficiently in dancing. The dance to the theme song was choreographed with simple moves, considering the varying competency among trainees. It could not be identified how good of a dancer he was with the absence of difficult stunts.
Nevertheless, as a professional, Gu Yang could tell Yun Xiao was a seasoned dancer. He was spot on when teaching and correcting the trainees.
This level of supervision was common during one-on-one sessions, but to pick up a blunder in a group of eighteen took more than just skills, it also required a discerning eye. Not everyone was capable of doing so.
Sure, Mr. Yun Xiao appeared to be a pro at dancing, but Gu Yang was far from being blown away. He could handle this level of supervision, and so could Xia Mi.
The other three mentors were singers and not professional dancers. Such group supervision would take a toll on them.
Half an hour later.
Shen Xi called for a break.

The trainees were so worn out that they sprawled on the ground. There was a sense of unity among the trainees as they took care of one another, offering towels to wipe away the sweat and water to quench the thirst.
The current state of Mr. Yun Xiao was another blow to their pride. Ah, the effects of compare and despair!
Here they were dog-tired while Mr. Yun Xiao did not even stop to catch his breath despite executing the moves and guidance simultaneously. That was some amazing stamina and lung capacity he had!
The group may be dead on their feet, but they were excited and gleeful in spirit. Instead of proving Mr. Yun Xiao wrong, they ended up eating their words. Well, at least they were in it together.
These young girls chatted among themselves in hushed tones. Not ones to hold a grudge, they were now newly converted fans and *ss-kissers of Mr. Yun Xiao.
The girls could finally hold their heads high. Well, they were going to show it to the other groups who looked down on Mr. Yun Xiao. They would be the last ones laughing when the other groups found out Mr. Yun Xiao could dance.
All talk was cheap at this point. Mr. Yun Xiao’s skills were enough to do all the talking. No one in Group F dared to challenge Mr. Yun Xiao’s credentials. What would it make of them if Mr. Yun Xiao was considered an amateur? They were trash in comparison!
Shen Xi opened a bottle of water and approached Gu Yang to nod in greeting.
Having watched for quite a while, Gu Yang acknowledged Mr. Yun Xiao was good enough to lead Group F. He observed the latter’s aloof demeanor and could not resist asking, “Why didn’t you say you’re a great dancer?”
Shen Xi looked at him strangely. “Is there a need to?”
Gu Yang felt embarrassed. Yes, Mr. Yun Xiao was right. Was it necessary to mention that fact when action speaks louder than words? He cleared his throat. “Yes, you’re right. There’s no need, Mr. Yun Xiao.”
Mr. Yun Xiao never said he did not know how to dance. It was all their assumption. That was humiliating.
“It’s half-past nine. Your turn.” Shen Xi reminded him.
In the next hour, Mr. Gu Yang would be working on the trainees’ combination of vocals, dance, and rap.
Gu Yang invited Mr. Yun Xiao. “Join us!”
Shen Xi leaned against a nearby chair. “I’m tired.”
Gu Yang smiled helplessly. “…”
What was there to say?
There was no way to carry on the conversation with him!
Chief director of the production team, Su Botao nestled in a corner of Group F’s studio and hung out with the cameramen. He proudly boasted to his chief writer. “I told you Mr. Yun Xiao can do it. I can read him a mile away!”
“Sure.” The chief writer cleared his throat. A clear hint of disdain flashed past his eyes.
Ha. Su Botao agreed to let Mr. Yun Xiao take on Group F in the heat of the moment yesterday, and then came running to him in private, dreading and drowning in regret for two hours. Su Botao was afraid Mr. Yun Xiao would ruin the show.
It was Su Muyan’s turn to provide vocal training after Gu Yang’s one-hour session.
Su Muyan cheerfully greeted the person who was seated and fiddling on his phone. Hiding his contempt, he politely asked for Mr. Yun Xiao’s advice. “If you have the time, why don’t you head on to Group C and guide the kids on the dance.”
Gu Yang found Su Muyan’s attitude distasteful. Anyone could see that Su Muyan was trying to make Mr. Yun Xiao look bad. If Su Muyan thought he could get to Mr. Yun Xiao, he got another thing coming.
However, it was not just him, but all of them were greatly mistaken. This incident was a reminder to Gu Yang not to judge people through hearsay or have prejudice. Otherwise, he would be left to eat a humble pie.
With star-struck eyes, the trainees of Group F held their breaths on Mr. Yun Xiao’s answer. This was a great opportunity. He should go there and bring it on!
They wanted Mr. Yun Xiao to hurry to Group C and show those skeptical trainees who the boss was!
Group F wished they could turn into Mr. Yun Xiao and throw those wise guys a curveball themselves. Oh, the thought of it put them on top of the world!
The production team was equally eager as they screamed in their minds to usher Mr.. Yun Xiao to go. A program with scenes of turning the tide made good TV!
