"Damn, this Zhao Yihua looked harmless when he first came on stage, but he killed it the moment he opened his mouth!"
"I'm shocked, his voice sounds so good singing this song."
"Hahaha, isn't that normal? When I heard Ting Yu in the city qualifiers, he brought a bunch of newcomers and completely dominated the King of Singers."
"Perhaps the momentum from the city qualifiers has faded, so some trolls are seizing the opportunity to lash out."
"I admit I had a narrow perspective, actually doubting Ting Yu's choice of singer..."
"Wuwuwu... being proven wrong by Ting Yu feels so good."
"Holy crap, you guys are truly perverted."
The barrage of comments scrolled furiously.
This song, "He Must Really Love You," combined with Zhao Yihua's performance, was absolutely stunning. Coupled with the doubts many had about his voice earlier, the show's impact was amplified.
The editors were very skilled, constantly cutting to the resident singers and their uncomfortable expressions. This gradually made many viewers feel more at ease.
"It's hard to imagine that a song sung with such a voice could be so infectious. Perhaps this is the ability of Ting Yu, the God of Music. He can write music that perfectly suits the singer. He demonstrated this ability in the city qualifiers, yet I doubted him just now. I shouldn't have. Zhao Yihua, you sang very well, your voice has a unique character!"
Singer God Li Chengsheng was slapping his thigh so hard it almost hurt.
He recalled saying that Ting Yu was giving haters a chance to attack him when the performance began, and his face immediately flushed with embarrassment.
However, having been in the entertainment industry for decades, his skin was thicker than most. After just a second of awkwardness, he recovered.
Despite the embarrassment, he still had to praise.
This song, "He Must Really Love You," would definitely become Zhao Yihua's signature hit. Moreover, even if many tried to cover it, they wouldn't be able to capture his unique flavor. This was the unique privilege of singers with distinctive voices in the music scene.
This was also why Dark Night Rabbit was so shocking on the Masked Singer stage, changing his vocal tones so many times, each one leaving people stunned.
Any one of those vocal tones would be envied by many singers. He possessed so many, which was why he was called a bug-level existence.
"Thank you, Teacher Li Chengsheng!"
On stage, Zhao Yihua, standing in front of the other singers, bowed deeply to Li Chengsheng.
His eyes were slightly red, the nervousness on his face had vanished, and his gaze was filled with unprecedented confidence.
Having loved music since he was a child, fate seemed to play a trick on him by giving him a hoarse voice. Because of his hoarse voice, his musical journey over the years had been incredibly difficult.
He had endured countless disdainful glances, been mocked for covers, and rejected by entertainment companies.
Fortunately, he met Ting Yu. He was the first person to tell Zhao Yihua that his voice was very unique and even wrote songs for this newcomer.
Now, even the Singer God praised his distinctive voice.
Tonight, he was destined to be the most dazzling presence in the entire venue!

Among a host of trending topics.
Three words stood out exceptionally.
This world never lacked listeners who could empathize.
Because of this song, they shared their stories in the comment section.
"Just got cheated on, listening on repeat, not clinging is my last bit of stubbornness!"
"So many people you thought would never betray you were precisely because you assumed they wouldn't..."
"I nominate Zhao Yihua as the second generation of devoted simps!"
"Haha, the devoted simp Zhang Yang, the under-the-car battle god Zhao Yihua."
"Be careful when driving in winter, because there might be cats, dogs, and Hua-ge under your car..."
"I hid under the car, holding a steel bar, wanting to give you a fatal blow. You walked closer and closer, with so many brothers, I was caught off guard and could only stand there frozen..."
"Damn, I actually sang along!"
"As expected, where there are silly netizens, even the saddest love songs don't feel sad anymore."
"If you're told to listen to sad songs, you'll be very sad."
"Get out with your nonsense literature!"
No one could have imagined.
This originally extremely humble love song would become so cheerful in the comments of witty netizens.
Under-the-car battle god.
Second generation of devoted simps.
These memes emerged endlessly.
"The effect is better than I imagined," even Su Yu was a bit surprised.
This was actually normal. As netizens said, his current influence meant one song could elevate a singer. For example, a singer who was previously second-tier could reach the level of a top-tier artist after singing his song, even if this popularity was temporary, it was still astonishing.
Now, many singers wanted to sing a Ting Yu song without any share of the profits.
However, Xinghui had never agreed to these singers' requests. Zhao Yuan always left the decision to Su Yu; she wouldn't make decisions for him.
And now, when Su Yu selected singers, he was no longer as casual as before, considering various factors.
The phone rang.
It was his father-in-law calling.
"Dad, what's up?"
"Xiao Yu, the recording for the next episode of King of Singers should be soon, right? When are you coming to Kyoto?"
"Uh... I'll be there this afternoon."
Su Yu detected a hint of hesitation in Lin Chaoyang's voice.
"Ahem... would you be interested in meeting some old friends with me tonight?" Lin Chaoyang stammered.
Su Yu immediately became vigilant. Lin Chaoyang had exhibited this state twice before: the first time was during the city qualifiers, and the second time was on Masked Singer.
"I just remembered I have something else to attend to, so I might not be able to come to Kyoto until tomorrow," Su Yu quickly said.
He could guess what was going on. Recently, King of Love Songs had been high-profilely inviting him to participate online.
However, *Masked Singer* was finally ending in two months. Su Yu felt it wouldn't be too much to rest for a while and go on vacation abroad with Lin Yanyu, right?
After all, Lin Chaoyang had promised him this.
Participating in more shows would surely exhaust him...
"Alas... alright, I'm an old man, and you're my only daughter. Finally, my daughter found a handsome, dashing, and talented partner, and I wanted to show him off, but..." Lin Chaoyang sighed feebly.
"Okay, okay, I'll go..."
Su Yu couldn't hold back any longer.
If Lin Chaoyang put it that way, it was hard for him to refuse.
"Hahaha, that's my good son-in-law! The circle isn't that big, and it isn't that small either. It's good to socialize more and meet more people; it will benefit you in the future," Lin Chaoyang chuckled, his voice no longer sounding weak.
"Understood, we'll be there shortly," Su Yu agreed.
He was trapped.
Completely trapped.
As expected of the old fox, Lin Chaoyang. To get him to attend the gathering.
He could even say things like "handsome, dashing, and talented."
However.
Why did he feel a little smug inside when praised by such an entertainment giant...
