Discover hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Eagerly awaited by everyone!

In the anticipation of countless people.

November 30 quietly arrived...

Since midnight marks the start of the December War of the Gods, countless music fans were guarding music apps that night, waiting for the release of songs by Xian Yu and Yang ZhongMing.

Of course.

The other composers who released music during this period were also the focus of public attention.

Nevertheless, compared to the showdown between Xian Yu and Yang ZhongMing, the works of other composers may lack a bit of spectacle.

Therefore, people are more interested in these two.

Qin Continent.

Rong City.

Inside a certain top-notch club, a group of people are holding a closed-door gathering.

This club is called the "Rong City Music Club", which includes thirty well-known top-notch composers.

These thirty composers may come from different music companies, but because they all live in the same city, they joined together to form this club—

The lowest threshold to join this club is to become a top-notch composer.

Among the members of the club, their relationships with each other are also very good.

They like to get together to exchange ideas about music when they are free.

The War of the Gods is a significant event for the whole music circle, so today all thirty members of the club are here, making it quite a gathering with a hint of "wine and music discussion".

It's like a poetry gathering organized by a group of talents.

This has been a recurring event before the start of the War of the Gods every year.

At present, it is eleven o'clock in the evening on November 30.

While waiting for the official start of the War of the Gods, the attendees are casually chatting:

"Time flies, and another year is about to pass."

"From the 'Masked Singer' that started in February to 'Our Song' held in the middle of the year, the music scene has been quite lively this year."

"I feel that most of the exciting events in the music scene this year are centered around Xian Yu, his performance in the Masked Singer as the Prince of Lanling was truly exciting, and his performance in 'Our Song' was also well recognized!"

"At the end of the year's War of the Gods, Xian Yu is still the focus of everyone's attention."

"We, a group of top-notch composers, are naturally considered gods compared to ordinary composers, but even for us so-called top-notch composers, the War of the Gods is like a battle of the gods!"

"Speaking of Xian Yu, Brother Li should have deep feelings!"

"Yes, Brother Li is the only one among us who has directly competed with Xian Yu."

"Moreover, at that time, Xian Yu was not yet the famous Maestro Junior, and Brother Li had not yet become a top-notch composer."

"..."

Everyone laughed and looked at a tall man with thinning hair.

The man said somewhat helplessly, "Every time the War of the Gods comes around, you guys make fun of me about this."

While claiming to be helpless, it was apparent from the corners of the man's mouth that he was actually smiling.

As if having competed with the nascent Xian Yu somehow gave him a sense of honor.

In fact.

When he first joined the club, he often boasted to other top-notch composers:

"I debuted at the same time as Xian Yu. During the competition for the Newcomer of the Season that year, he came in first. It's a bit embarrassing, I came in a bit behind him and got third place."

Despite claiming to be embarrassed, when he was boasting, there was no embarrassment on this man's face, but rather a sense of self-satisfaction—

This man's name is Li Yang.

Years ago, he debuted at the same time as Xian Yu, and the newcomer Xian Yu took the top spot in that month's Newcomer of the Season with his song "Life Like A Summer Flower".

As for Li Yang, he was the third-ranked composer of the Newcomer Season that year.

"All to die."

Li Yang's line, which first appeared in Chapter 9, has been circulating for many years and has been passed along through countless people.

But at that time, Li Yang could not imagine:

That one day in the future.

Xian Yu would become the famous Maestro Junior.

And even compete on the same stage as legendary figures like Yang Zhongming!

And that he could only struggle to become a top-notch composer.

In fact, becoming a top-notch composer a few years after debut is already quite remarkable.

If we don't compare him to Xian Yu, Li Yang could be considered a "genius composer" however you look at it.

...

Everyone was laughing and joking around.

They just liked seeing Li Yang's seemingly discontented, but actually pride-filled expression.

After a while of jokes and laughter.

Everyone began discussing the competition between Xian Yu and Yang Zhongming:

"Although Xian Yu has been the focus this year, it seems unlikely that he will clinch the triple crown title in the War of the Gods."

"Just like the character Sun Wukong, no matter how powerful he is, he can't escape the palm of the Buddha."

"Father Yang's strength is truly terrifying."

"Unless Xian Yu outperforms."

"It's still very difficult for Xian Yu to win even if he outperforms. Father Yang would have to perform poorly for that to happen."

"Brother Li, do you think Xian Yu can become the triple champion?"

"..."

Li Yang snorted.

What can I think?

I have an idea for you all.

Just as Li Yang was about to speak, the club's clock suddenly struck.

"It's twelve o'clock!"

Li Yang suddenly perked up!

The expressions of the other composers also gradually turned solemn.

The main event is here!

Someone suggested, "Shall we listen to Father Yang's song first?"

Everyone nodded.

Someone began to play Yang Zhongming's song-

The standard and grade of the club are high, and the external sound system is produced in Chu Continent, and the sound quality is professional.

"Father Yang's song is called 'Blue Star'!"

"Wow!"

"The name of the song is so bold!"

"Judging by the name, it's a big song."

"I have a feeling this song won't let us down!"

"With this title, how can it disappoint?"

"Moreover, this is Yang Zhongming's song!"

"..."

In the midst of these comments, 'Blue Star' started playing.

The performer is Starlight's King of Singing, Lan Yan!

Lan Yan's talent is undoubtedly exceptional.

The song "Red Sun" that Xian Yu won the first God War with was also sung by Lan Yan.

The effect was generally recognized as good.

This time was no exception.

With Lan Yan's voice resounding, all the ace composers were instantly immersed in the atmosphere created by the song.

Magnificent!

Grand!

Each line of the prelude indirectly corresponded to a continent.

And when it reached the main part of the song, it closely followed the theme of "Blue Star Unification".

This song, is indeed monumental!

Inside the club, it was incredibly quiet.

Only 'Blue Star's' voice, resonating throughout the hall.

The composers went from initial enjoyment to wonder and then astonishment.

When the song ended, the only feeling left in everyone's hearts was:

Worthy of Yang Zhongming!

For a while, no one spoke.

In the end, it was Li Yang who broke the silence:

"This song can shame ninety percent of the maestros."

Everyone finally came back to their senses, but no one denied it, just nodded in agreement one after another.

They are all top composers. Even though they might not possess the skills of a maestro, they do have a keen ear for music and their judgement of song quality far surpasses that of an ordinary person.

Yang Zhongming's song is both artistically and commercially exceptional.

Despite having the entire Blue Star as its theme, the melody is not too complex. If anything, this simplicity adds a touch of returning to the original state...

Four words:

Great music is easy.

After a long time, a composer laughed bitterly, "Should the other maestros bother to compete?"

Being the top chart hit maker among the maestros is no joke, but even if the other composers' songs are not up to par, they definitely hold value in giving a listen.

Li Yang spoke again, "Let's play Xian Yu's song next."

For this Gods War, everyone was extremely curious and expectant of Yang Zhongming's song.

Indeed, Yang Zhongming lived up to everyone's curiosity and expectations!

Under such circumstances, everyone believed that Xian Yu had little chances of winning.

Despite Xian Yu's song being the second most anticipated piece.

Not just Xian Yu.

Other maestros also faced slim chances.

Yang Zhongming's song was simply too powerful!

But Li Yang, he always cared about Xian Yu, even though Yang Zhongming's song was nearly in an unbeatable position!

"Xian Yu's song, titled 'East Wind Breaks', is written, composed and sung by him..."

The composer responsible for playing the music began to speak, briefly introducing Xian Yu's song information.

While everyone casually nodded, they were still whispering about the composition technique of 'Blue Star', obviously not yet out of the shock brought by Yang Zhongming's song.

However.

Not knowing from which moment, the scene suddenly became quiet once more, and everyone halted their discussions about 'Blue Star'.

Meanwhile.

Xian Yu's voice slowly emerged in the music, carrying a hint of sadness and loneliness:

"A light of sorrow, standing alone by the window."

"I am standing behind the door, pretending you haven't left yet..."
