I don't want to be an elf!

To win the Star Dance Festival, you must use hundreds of your peers as stepping stones to claim that prestigious trophy.

Every member of the Star Pulse Generation who enrolls in one of the six academies is undoubtedly an outstanding individual in their respective country or region.

Those qualified to participate in the Star Dance Festival are the elite among the best.

Most of them have been training hard since childhood, studying how to use the power of stars and how to combine it with the Huang-style weaponry. To put it bluntly, if they were to actually go to the battlefield, each of them would be able to fight against a hundred people, or even become a superhuman who could form an army on their own.

And Miku Izayoi...

Pedra genuinely didn't believe that a girl who made her career as an idol could be particularly outstanding in combat.

While manipulating other people's minds is an almost unsolvable ability, it is not without its limitations.

Judging from Miku Izayoi's previous statements, people who possess stellar power or a large amount of stellar power can resist her mental manipulation.

If this is the only skill she can boast about, then she will never be able to participate in the Star Dance Festival.

However, putting aside the facts, if she really has the ability to win first place in the Star Dance Festival, then her goal is indeed possible to achieve.

Moreover, it will be achieved in the fastest and most efficient way.

Her goal is to replace Sylvia as the number one diva of Hexagram, attracting the cheers and adoration of girls.

However, if she joins the Quinvian Children's Academy, she will at most receive the same level of promotion and channels as Sylvia.

Given the same level of resources, it would be extremely difficult for her to surpass Sylvia, who has already established a solid foundation in the industry for several years.

Therefore, if she wants to achieve her goals, she must do something that Sylvia was unable to do.

Winning the championship at the Star Dance Festival would be the best choice.

Even Sylvia, known as the "Witch of War," a powerful figure endowed with almost omnipotent talents by the power of the stars, only managed to secure second place at the Royal Dragon Star Dance Festival.

This is also the best result that Quineve Children's Academy has achieved in the three categories of Star Dance Festival, Phoenix, Griffin and King Dragon since its establishment.

Because idol girls who devote all their time to singing and dancing will be absolutely crushed by the Star Pulse Era, who are dedicated to honing their combat skills, unless their Star Power and Huang-style weaponry can overwhelm them by a level.

It was precisely because the Star Dance Festival was so disadvantageous for Quinvion Girls' Academy that Pedra shifted her focus entirely to idol activities.

How strong are you in combat?

Although she was determined that Miku Izayoi could never win, she still patiently asked, "The Star Dance Festival is not a stage where singing and dancing determine the winner. It is a gladiatorial arena where you fight to the death. If you don't have enough strength, you will only lose face."

“You don’t need to worry about that,” Miku Izayoi said calmly. “I will find a strong enough teammate to be my tool in the Phoenix Star Dance Festival and help me win the championship.”

"How about this, you join the Quincy Children's Academy, and you can choose any of the twelve students on the first page."

When faced with Pedra's proposal, Miku Izayoi merely chuckled coldly twice.

The first twelve are the twelve strongest students from each academy.

However, the twelve individuals who are the first to emerge from each academy also have their own unique value.

In a school like Quinv Children's Academy, which almost never participates in the Star Dance Festival, the twelve members of the First Page would probably not even rank in the top fifty of other schools.

"Okay, then I'll choose Sylvia."

"Well... she's very busy."

"Then there's no need to continue the conversation. I don't think I'm interested in anyone else except her."

Miku Izayoi's choice was within Pedra's expectations.

Pedra's rejection was also within Miku Izayoi's expectations.

In the entire Quinvian Academy, only Sylvia, who once won second place in the one-on-one Royal Dragon Star Dance Festival, has the ability to become her partner in the Phoenix Star Dance Festival.

As for everyone else…

"To be honest, your invitation is very tempting. I've longed to visit the Aoi Envy Girls' Academy, which is full of adorable children," Miku Izayoi said with great regret. "However, I must win the Star Dance Festival first place. If I truly become the number one diva of the Hexagram, then even more girls will be willing to throw themselves at me."

Pedra's lips twitched a few times.

Is the reason this guy wants to become an idol really just to play around with women?

It's not like I'm in a band!

She didn't know what to say anymore.

"But..."

Just as Pedra was about to give up, Miku Izayoi spoke up again, saying leisurely, "Compared to other academies, I still prefer the all-girls Aoi Envy Girls' Academy. If you can do me a small favor, I might as well join you."

"what!"

Upon hearing that there was still a possibility of getting this top idol prospect to join her academy, Pedra's hope was immediately rekindled: "Just tell me if it's within my power."

"very good."

Seeing that Pedra agreed, the corners of her eyes curved slightly, revealing a very beautiful smile: "I will choose a student from another academy who is suitable to be a tool, and you will be responsible for helping me snatch that student."

"Stealing students from other colleges?"

Upon hearing this request, Petora hesitated for a moment.

This is no simple request.

After all, among the other five academies, only twelve students from the first page meet Miku Izayoi's selection criteria.

These top talents are highly valued by all colleges.

If you want to poach students from other colleges, even if the other college is willing, they will never give in.

However, this is the only way to get Miku Izayoi to join them.

"Ugh......"

Pedra sighed deeply.

Now, they're sure to get ripped off by other conglomerates.

But her mood quickly improved.

Let them extort money if they want; as long as they can bring Miku Izayoi back, it's all worth it.

The value created by this idol in the future will be rewarded many times over.

“Okay, I agree.” Pedra nodded. “But I have one condition.”

"what?"

"It can't be a boy."

"Are you joking?"

Miku Izayoi's expression immediately turned to disgust.

That expression made it seem as if the words she had just uttered were some kind of unclean and filthy language, disgusting just to hear.

Pedro was somewhat puzzled by Miku Izayoi's strong reaction.

She originally thought that this guy simply liked girls.

Now it seems that there might also be elements of misogyny involved?

No wonder she only talked about girls from the very beginning. Even after becoming the number one songstress of the six-pointed star, she only wanted to be adored by girls, as if she had forgotten that men existed in the world.

So she really does hate men.

"Sorry, let's get back to the main topic."

Pedra unknowingly stepped on another landmine, leaving her slightly embarrassed.

This guy's triggers are really strange, one after another, even she was caught off guard.

Although she really wanted to know why Izayoi Miku hated men so much, she knew she wouldn't get an answer if she asked directly.

So she kept this question to herself, planning to ask about it when she had the chance later. For now, she forced the topic back to the main point.

“Although I am the chairperson, I do not have the power to take away students,” Pedra said. “Unless you can persuade that student beforehand, I cannot use my position to arrange for her to transfer to Quinnway Children’s Academy.”

"Of course."

"However, your mind manipulation shouldn't work on the strong, right?" Pedra's eyes held a hint of curiosity. "To win the Phoenix Star Dance Festival, you'll need to select at least the top five from the twelve members of the starting page from other academies, but those people would never consider joining an idol academy like ours. How exactly do you plan to convince them?"

"My methods for persuading girls don't just rely on brainwashing."

The displeasure on Miku Izayoi's face faded, replaced by an expression that was hard to describe.

"In short, all you need to do is prepare the transfer procedures, and I'll take care of the rest."

Chapter Twenty: The New Star in the Hexagram

Although the process was somewhat bumpy, Pedra and Miku Izayoi still reached a consensus.

With the deliberate guidance of Yao Guangxing, the news quickly spread throughout the entire six-pointed star system.

The mysterious new idol who won first place in the idol selection but did not appear at the award ceremony became a student at Quinnville Girls' Academy and signed an S-level contract with the Warren & Warren Foundation behind her.

This news shocked many people.

The idol industry is a significant source of income for Warren & Warren, and the conglomerate has always maintained a very strict attitude towards its idols, with absolutely no room for compromise.

While Warren & Warren doesn't have many S-level idols, it's not a small number either.

However, very few people sign an S-class contract right from their debut.

Currently, only two idol groups at Quinvion Girls' Academy have debuted with S-class contracts.

One is the solo idol Sylvia, the undisputed number one diva in the world, and also the most popular idol at Quinvion Girls' Academy.

The other one is a five-member idol group, also a world-class rock band, [Lusa Luca], who is the second most popular at Quinvion Girls' Academy.

Miku Izayoi became the third S-class idol at the current Aoi Eunwha Girls' Academy to debut at her peak.

The news sparked curiosity among many people about this idol of unknown origin.

Some questioned her qualifications, some questioned her abilities, and some even questioned whether she had gotten in through connections or back channels...

But Miku Izayoi quickly answered these questions with her actions.

A month passed quickly after the contract was signed.

During that month, she held four live concerts in the six-pointed star.

With the backing of the Kwai Enwei Children's Academy and the Warren & Warren Foundation, and with the help of extensive channels and promotions, the number of people buying concert tickets has increased each time.
