Chapter 135 Stage Accident
Jiang Songchu's team also practiced for a long time, but did not stay past midnight.
Under You Qin's guidance, everyone finished their practice in an orderly manner and returned to the lounge with a lot of gains and expectations.
They know that proper rest is essential for a better start.
The next day, the ten teams made a neat appearance in the contestant seats of "Elegant Dance".
Some teams were full of energy, their eyes sparkling with confidence; others were listless, clearly having expended too much energy in practice.
Qi Shao returned to the stage to announce the start of today's competition.
His voice was full of anticipation and encouragement: "Contestants, are you ready to take on the challenge? Today, you will compete in pairs to determine the winning team. The order of the matches will be decided by the mentors on site."
As soon as he finished speaking, a murmur of discussion arose from the crowd.
The contestants speculated about their potential opponents and the order of their matches, while the mentors began to discuss the matter seriously.
With the mentors' decisions announced, the competition officially began.
Qi Shao stood in the center of the stage, his eyes sharp as he swept over the dark mass of people below.
His voice echoed throughout the venue through the microphone: "Dear contestants and audience members, after the two teams have finished their performances, the real-time voting channel will be opened. Voting will last for five minutes and will include both online and offline votes."
A murmur rippled through the audience as the contestants exchanged nervous glances, as if checking each other's preparations.
The audience excitedly took out their phones, ready to vote for their favorite team at any time.
Qi Shao continued, "Please invite the first team to come up on stage and prepare."
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtains on both sides of the stage slowly opened, and the two teams walked onto the stage from both sides.
Their costumes were gorgeous and unique, and their faces all wore expressions of anticipation.
Jiang Songchu's team was placed in the third group, and their opponent was Tang Xuanjiao's team.
Soon, it was Jiang Songchu's team's turn to perform. The five of them encouraged each other and began their performance.
Jiang Songchu's team worked late into the night in the practice room. After discussion, they decided to perform a creative dance that blends classical and modern elements.
All five are experienced dancers. Although each has their own area of expertise, they have all studied the dance to some extent because of the fame of "Tsuki Kizuna".
Therefore, the dance performed this time is based on "Moon's Bond" created by Jiang Songchu, combining the elegance of classical dance with the vitality of modern dance, aiming to showcase the diversity and innovation of the team members.
After determining the dance style, Jiang Songchu and her team members began to choreograph the dance in earnest.
They practiced each movement repeatedly, striving for precision and perfection.
As the team leader, Jiang Songchu not only devoted herself wholeheartedly to the dance, but also constantly provided suggestions and guidance to the team members to help them better integrate into the dance.
As the familiar music played, everyone had their own highlight and moment.
In the climax of the dance, Jiang Songchu led the team in a wonderful group dance, showcasing the team's tacit understanding and strength.
At the end of the dance, she performed a highly challenging solo, bringing the entire performance to a climax and leaving a deep impression on the audience.
After the performance, the audience applauded for a long time, and the live comments were also full of support for the team and Jiang Songchu. Everyone was amazed by the wonderful group dance and Jiang Songchu's high-difficulty move of hanging upside down in the air at the end.
Instructor Mao Xiaozhen commented excitedly, "The unique feature of this dance lies in its diverse fusion. It possesses the elegance and charm of classical dance, the vitality and passion of modern dance, and also incorporates the exotic flair of belly dance. It's simply perfect!"
Duan Jian nodded in approval: "The choreography of the dance is ingenious, the movements are fluid, and the music has been carefully selected and perfectly matches the dance."
Song Chuanqiong simply smiled and commented, "Jiang Songchu's performance has once again impressed me."
Luo Jiarui's response was even simpler: "Keep up the good work!"
When it was Tang Xuanjiao's team's turn to perform, the stage lights suddenly lit up like stars, enveloping the five members in dazzling light and shadow.
The music started, surging like a tide, driving their dance steps.
However, beneath this seemingly harmonious surface, turbulent undercurrents lurk.
As the music started, their movements became somewhat chaotic. Sometimes someone would step on another person's foot, and other times several people would scramble to get closer to the camera, trying to leave a deeper impression on the audience.
Tang Xuanjiao was positioned in the center of the group, and the spotlight in the center position made her shine even brighter.
Although no one dared to compete with Tang Xuanjiao for the center position, the other team members were still looking for opportunities to get more screen time.
Tang Xuanjiao was already indignant about losing to Jiang Songchu, and seeing her teammates being so uncooperative only made her angrier.
She thought to herself, if things continue like this, they will definitely lose to Jiang Songchu again.
She then glanced around and noticed that her teammates always seemed to be a beat behind or rushing ahead, and some even deliberately squeezed next to her, trying to steal some of the spotlight.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she plotted how to break the deadlock.
As the dance reached its climax, the center of the stage slowly rose, creating a dreamlike and stunning visual effect that captivated the audience.
Her eyes flashed, and an idea instantly came to her.
Tang Xuanjiao used a turn in her dance to quietly retreat behind an amateur team member named Jin Yue.
Jin Yue was completely absorbed in her performance, her face radiating confidence and enthusiasm, unaware of the danger behind her.
The music reached its most exciting point, and Jin Yue was about to make another large movement.
After Tang Xuanjiao raised her eyes to confirm that the camera was directly in front of her, a subtle smile appeared on her lips. She turned slightly to the side and casually stretched her foot to where Jin Yue was about to land, then gently hooked her toe.
Jin Yue's body instantly became uncontrollable, like a kite with a broken string, she lost her balance and staggered forward a few steps.
"Ah—" Jin Yue let out a terrified scream, and her body fell forward uncontrollably.
The audience's eyes were instantly drawn to her. Her figure arced through the air before crashing heavily off the stage.
A loud "bang" echoed across the stage like a thunderclap.
The entire scene fell into a deathly silence, with only the music still playing and Jin Yue's painful groans echoing in the air.
Tang Xuanjiao watched this scene with a hint of smugness in her heart.
But she quickly adjusted her expression, feigning horror as she exclaimed, "Why did you steal the center position and step on me! If you wanted the center position, just say so! How could you be so careless? What are we going to do now!"
