Tokyo: The evil god doesn't want to be the top star

Chapter 172: Innate Street Dance Holy Body
What Kitamura Hanamichi didn't mention is that when street dance was just becoming popular in District 11, he was the first person from District 11 to win the World Street Dance Championship. In the street dance circle, he was known as the "OG among OGs".

So, when he first entered the classroom and saw that Xia Fan did not recognize him, he confirmed that the other party was really an outsider with no dance foundation.

"Xia Jun, your physical condition, strength, control and coordination have already reached the level of a professional dancer..."

"Especially your talent for body control and movement imitation, which is something I have never seen before in my many years of teaching street dance."

"Your only weakness is your lack of flexibility, the lack of interaction between your movements and the music, and your dance moves have not yet developed a personal style."

"Also, if you just rely on imitation, the expressiveness of your dance will be limited by the level of the person you're imitating, and you won't be able to compete with others in freestyle..."

After introducing himself, Kitamura Hanamichi gave an objective comment on Xia Fan's situation.

"so……"

Xia Fan listened carefully, nodded honestly, and waited for this "former world champion" to guide him in the direction of his future studies.

"So, don't participate in any crappy talent shows. Join my dance team and strive to become a world-class dancer."

"what?"

But what he waited for was the warm hand extended by Kitamura Hanamichi.

"The problems I mentioned just now are all because you are just a beginner..."

"You are only nineteen years old, right? With my careful instruction, and your rare dancing talent, I guarantee that you will become a world-class dancer in two years. You may even become the master of all street dance genres."

Seeing Xia Fan's confused face, Kitamura Hanamichi began to explain excitedly.

Street dance, in addition to long-term hard practice and immersion in cultural atmosphere, also requires talent.

The reason why he engaged in teaching and promoting street dance after retiring was not only to make this dance more popular, but also to discover suitable "seedlings" and break the embarrassing situation that District 11 has not produced a street dance world champion in the past 20 years since him.

In Beicun's opinion, Xia Fan can contribute a dance performance that is similar to his own in appearance but not in spirit just by relying on his physical fitness, control ability and imitation ability...

In the first class, he was able to reach a level that many dance enthusiasts may not be able to reach in their entire lives. What an amazing talent this is.

It can be called the innate holy body of street dance.

In his mind, he had already imagined Xia Fan battling with several black people, showing off various dance moves in turn, and finally performing some showy power moves that blew up the whole audience.

"Ah... I'm sorry, I've already signed up for the talent show, so I can't not participate."

"My current focus of study still needs to be on making my debut through a talent show..."

Xia Fan touched his head apologetically and did not shake the other person's hand that was hanging in the air.

Not to mention that Bethesda had finally made room for him, if he didn't participate, Uncle Higashino would face a huge penalty.

"Tsk, that kind of idol show, there is no fighting atmosphere at all, and the limp dance performances are all child's play..."

"With your physical fitness and imitation ability, you can easily pass the test by practicing the original choreography video a few times."

When it comes to "idols" and "talent shows", Kitamura Hanamichi withdrew his hands in embarrassment, with a look of disdain on his face.

"No, it would be boring if I just passed easily..."

"So, if you have a dance performance later, you can break down the movements for me, and I will borrow the movements and dance them myself, and then record a teaching video for you..."

"Even if it's a style of dance I'm not good at, I can help you find a dancer of the same level as me to demonstrate it to you."

"The condition is that you have to come to my studio and take the basic street dance class."

Touching his stubbled chin, he smiled sinisterly and made a suggestion to Xia Fan.

"With Kitamura-sensei's personal demonstration, it will definitely surpass the level of the 'original jump', so of course it's good..."

“But your studio’s street dance classes aren’t very expensive, right?”

Xia Fan confirmed cautiously. "Expensive? Just like today, I will teach you one-on-one..."

“Tuition is free!”

Kitamura patted his chest generously.

Although he was rejected by Xia Fan today, as the "first generation street dance old boy", Kitamura Hanamichi naturally has an indomitable heart.

As long as Xia Fan is willing to learn from him and feel the joy of street dance, participating in street dance competitions will be a natural and gradual process.

"Free? That's fine."

Xia Fan originally needed dance training courses. Now the courses were free, and he also had a "former world champion" as his dance technical consultant. It was a treatment that others would envy, so he naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse.

"Then it's a deal, let's do a Dap to show our sincerity..."

"DAP?"

"What, you don't know how to do it? Just bump fists like this, and move your fingers like this, like this... You are indeed a genius at imitation, you have done it really well!"

So, the two of them, each with their own thoughts, did a fancy fist bump and reached an agreement.

……

Half an hour later.

In the deserted dance studio, the locker in the corner suddenly opened by itself from the inside...

"Hehe, the way Master Xia Fan learns to dance is so handsome, cool, and cute."

The petite Yui Aiba walked out of the closet with a satisfied blush on her face.

"What a pity. I don't have enough time to install a camera in the lounge. I can't enjoy Mr. Xia Fan's lunch break..."

She lay down, searching around like a dog, and suddenly stretched out her finger and touched the wooden floor...

"I've been staring at this for a long time. Master Xia Fan's precious..."

She held a drop of crystal clear water on her fingertips as if it were a treasure, then put it into her mouth and sucked it hard.

"The afternoon class is a vocal lesson. It's really hard."

After doing all this, Yui Aiba's face flushed. She took out her tablet computer with an unsatisfied look and checked the course materials.

"Speaking of which, Master Xia Fan suddenly signed up for body shaping, dancing, and vocal courses. Is he preparing for some important performance?"

"We need to investigate thoroughly..."

Aiba Yui seemed to have realized something, so she spread out the Magic Keyboard and started typing away.

……

"Mr. Xia, this is the lunch prepared for you by the academy. Because you have vocal lessons in the afternoon, you cannot eat spicy, hot, greasy, or irritating foods, nor can you drink overly sweet drinks, and you should not eat too much..."

"After you finish your meal, you can take a nap here. During this time, remember to drink small sips of water to moisten your throat and ensure that your vocal cords are in the best condition."

After the dance class, Xia Fan was taken to a separate lounge by the staff and lunch was thoughtfully prepared for her.

"So professional, is there so much to it?"

After taking a shower in the lounge and changing out of his sweaty clothes, Xia Fan ate a light lunch and finally had time to look at his phone.

"Horiie Tsubasa: The finals of the campus singing competition will be held next week. I have selected a few songs. You can take a look at them when you have time. We can discuss it later when we meet."

Following Horie Tsubasa's message, there was also a list of alternative song links.
