I became a movie star at the age of three; Dilraba and I are childhood sweethearts.

The second, the third, the fourth...

Several contestants in a row, regardless of gender or singing style, all said the same thing as the first thing after finishing their performance.

"I came for Teacher Xiao."

Then, Xiao Chen rejected them all with the same gentle yet firm reasons.

And these people, just like the first girl, gave up the competition immediately after being rejected.

It seemed that for them, the only reason to come to this stage was because of Xiao Chen.

Adam, both amused and exasperated, shouted at Xiao Chen.

"Hey buddy, can you open a shop first?"

"If you don't choose someone soon, we'll all be unemployed today!"

Blake echoed this sentiment.

"Yeah, Xiao, let's spare the brothers' lives!"

"You've scared away all the promising young talents!"

Xiao Chen simply shrugged, looking completely innocent.

That expression seemed to say: This isn't my fault.

The audience burst into laughter at the scene, maximizing the dramatic effect of the show.

Just then, the stage lift slowly rose.

A petite figure appeared under the light.

She was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, had long hair, and looked a little nervous, gripping the microphone tightly.

Compared to the other contestants with strong presence, she seemed so inconspicuous.

Blake even whispered to Katie.

"This girl looks like she wandered onto the wrong film set."

The music begins with an ethereal piano melody.

When the girl closed her eyes and opened them again, her entire aura had changed.

She brought the microphone to her lips and parted her lips slightly.

"The bubbles in the sunlight are colorful..."

Just one sentence.

There's only this one line in the lyrics.

A clear and penetrating female voice, like a bullet, accurately struck the ears of everyone in the studio.

That voice had a unique metallic quality, a touch of ethereal mystery, and the power of a volcanic eruption.

Adam, who had been sitting idly in the mentor's chair, suddenly sat up straight.

The teasing on Katie and Blake's faces vanished instantly, replaced by utter shock.

What an amazing voice!

Xiao Chen remained calm and politely declined all offers from the contestants.

The moment I heard those lyrics, my body trembled almost imperceptibly.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

The sound pierced the eardrums and struck the soul.

Xiao Chen immediately recognized the girl on stage as G.E.M.

That voice sounds so familiar!

Xiao Chen's memories came flooding back like a tide.

In her past life, she was the Iron Lung Little Queen who conquered the entire Chinese music scene with her powerful high notes and unparalleled singing skills.

She was standing right in front of him, alive and well.

Inexperienced and nervous, yet already showing remarkable talent.

G.E.M.'s vocal qualities are a natural gift.

He was determined to have this piece of jade.

Adam held his head in his hands, leaned forward, and almost bounced off the mentor's chair.

"Oh my god!"

"Is that voice... real?"

Even on the stage of the American "The Voice" where there are many talented people, G.E.M.'s vocal qualities are still exceptional.

Katie's eyes widened, her mouth slightly open, and she muttered to herself.

"There is a giant living in her voice."

G.E.M. continued singing, her body swaying gently to the melody.

Every note seemed to burst forth with energy from the depths of her soul.

"The more you expect, the more you get hurt..."

During the high notes, she showed no signs of strain; instead, she pierced the air of the entire studio like a drawn sword.

That immense power gave everyone goosebumps.

Just before that high note had completely faded.

Snapped!

A crisp, loud bang.

Xiao Chen slammed down the red button in front of him, and the entire mentor chair spun around with a "whoosh"!

Decisive and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.

This move was faster and more decisive than any of the previous contestants' reactions.

The audience was taken aback at first.

Immediately erupting was a deafening roar of screams and applause!

This was Xiao Chen's first time turning around!

On stage, G.E.M., who was immersed in the music with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes when she heard the sound of a chair turning.

When he saw that captivating face smiling at him.

Her pupils dilated instantly, her eyes filled with a mixture of ecstasy and disbelief.

It's him!

It's really him!

For this moment, she flew halfway around the world from the port city of Dragon Kingdom.

Xiao Chen.

Her childhood idol whom she has loved since she was a child!

The immense excitement transformed into even greater motivation for the performance.

G.E.M. gripped the microphone tightly, pouring all her emotions into the last line of the lyrics.

"It's all just foam..."

She used an extremely ornate tone transition technique with the word "沫" (mo), building up the tone layer by layer.

Finally, it transformed into a sonic wave and exploded with a deafening roar!

Extremely powerful!

The atmosphere at the scene was completely ignited!

The music stopped, and G.E.M. was slightly out of breath.

But her gaze remained fixed on Xiao Chen, as if he were the only person left in the world.

Adam also turned his chair, and at that moment he stood up and clapped vigorously.

Wow!

"Girl, what's your name?"

"Your performance just now was absolutely phenomenal!"

Snapped!

Another sound.

Katie also turned around for her.

Although Blake didn't turn around, his face was full of admiration.

"Shaw, are your ears radar?"

"While I was still hesitating, you had already made your move."

The host walked onto the stage and handed the microphone to G.E.M.

"Hello, please tell us your name and where you are from?"

Deng Ziqi took a deep breath, trying to calm her excited emotions, but her gaze remained fixed on Xiao Chen.

"Hello everyone, my name is Deng Ziqi, and I come from Gang City, Longguo."

Upon hearing this answer, both Adam and Katie wore expressions that conveyed a mix of "I knew it" and "Oh no!"

They all remembered Xiao Chen's rules.

The host said with a smile.

"G.E.M., congratulations! You've received four judges' turns!"

"Now, let's hear how the mentors will convince you to join their team."

"Adam, would you like to go first?"

Adam eagerly interrupted.

"G.M., listen, your voice is a gift from God, but gifts also need the most gorgeous wrapping."

"My team has the best producers in the world."

"We can create a top-tier album for you, making you the next international superstar!"

"Come join my team, I promise!"

Not to be outdone, Katie gave G.E.M. a flirty wink.

"Honey, don't listen to that old man."

"Your stage presence still has room for improvement, and I am an expert in this area."

"Join me, and I will make you shine on stage and become the most dazzling queen."

"We women should help other women, right?"

The audience was amused by the two mentors' "battle to recruit" and burst into laughter.

All eyes were on G.E.M., awaiting her choice.
