I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 699: Plant Affinity MAX

A champion was born!

The King of Masked Singers was born!

The next day.

In the morning.

News headlines were churned in a frenzy.

[The Masked Singer Ends!]

[The number of live stream viewers online has hit an amazing record!]

[Superman won the championship against all odds!]

[Thumping loss for the popular little fresh meat!]

[A shocking night!]

On Weibo:

[Damn it. This is just scary. Did y’all watch the live stream? The number of people online in the live stream was amazing!]

[Yes, King of Masked Singers set a new record this time.]

[I feel that there will never be that high a number of online users within the next ten years.]

[Superman has become the King of Singers.]

[I loooooove listening to Superman’s songs so much. They’re so nice.]

[It’s a pity I don’t know who Superman is, even until now.]

[The King of Masked Singers program group were also fooled. They actually let Superman leave like that.]

It was then that a Weibo account named Celebrity Spy suddenly posted a status.

[I’m sure everyone wants to know exactly where this godly Superman came from. To be honest, I have the same questions as everyone else. Relying on talent alone and almost zero popularity, the fact that Superman was able to slaughter those little fresh meat and eliminate all three popular ones was an unbelievable feat. However, those are the facts and it has already happened. Who would have that kind of strength?

There’s no harm for all of us to make a bold guess, since there are very few who actually have this kind of power. We’ve already ran through every single singer in the music industry who can even remotely approach that kind of strength, yet none of our guesses were accurate. However! There is one person we did haven’t guessed—Singer Y!

I was initially skeptical of that possibility, but after careful consideration, there’s a high chance that it might be the case! Everyone knows how powerful Singer Y is, and Superman sang an original song this time too. Aren’t there similarities to Singer Y? Also, have another look at the tutors onstage. One of them is Chen Xiaoyan, so she may well have invited Singer Y to show up. Am I right?]

That post enlightened everyone, who felt as though the truth had been laid bare in front of them.

[OMG! After listening to your analysis, I really think that might be the case!]

[Yes. It’s an original song and it was sung so perfectly. It can only be Singer Y!]

[Damn, it ought to have been an easy guess. Why didn’t I think of it?]

[Singer Y! He actually went onstage, ah~~~!]

[I’m so emotional right now! No wonder he could slay that little fresh meat. This is only right and just.]

[Yeah, Singer Y symbolizes the pinnacle of the music industry.]

…

Singer Y neither acknowledged or denied the online speculation. On the third day, another piece of news once again made its rounds—it lit up the internet and immediately exposed Superman’s identity.

QQ Music’s official website released a message: [The company has signed a contract with Singer Y. Love Story in Guangdong, The Ordinary Road, The Way You Were, and Natural will be released on this platform one after another, so stay tuned!]

Subsequently, some of the more well-informed managed to dig up the price of the contract—it was worth 90 million!

That was right! A full 90 million RMB!

One should also consider that Canton Love Story was a cover. If the four songs were all original, the earnings were estimated to exceed 100 million!

The entire network was stunned silly when it was released.

[So it was Singer Y! This is just awesome!]

[That’s just insane! 90 million for just a few songs.]

[He’s too rich! He’s a money maker!]

[Singer Y, please take me as a sugar baby! I know many positions! It’s true. I’m a professional!]

[My god, I don’t even dare to dream of having so much money. I envy and hate him at the same time!]

[Having talent (read: money) means that he can do whatever he wants.]

…

Ye Lingchen had already returned to Miracle Island by the time he became the internet’s focal point.

He counted his popularity points and could not resist smiling.

Ever since the hacker war, he had prepared the filming of Drawing Sword, and when coupled with the popularity of King of Masked Singers, his popularity points had increased by more than 3 million during this period, reaching a total of 23 million!

Compared with a couple of earth-shattering events he had done in the past, an increase in popularity by 3 million did not seem much, but one must realize that it was nothing more than just singing. It was estimated that at least 50 million people would have had to hear his songs before he could gain 4 million in his popularity. After all, singing was very different from saving people with medical skills.

Of course, all that happened barely after his participation in the show. His popularity would only increase once he recorded those three songs.

Ye Lingchen could not sit still when he looked at his current popularity points. In the end, he could not control himself from summoning the system interface.

There were already five advanced skills: Parkour(Advanced), Animal Taming(Advanced), Eight Extremities Brute Training(Advanced), Arhat Fist Force(Advanced) and Formation(Advanced).

As for intermediate skills, there were only two left: Wood Spirit Constitution(Intermediate) and Dog Language(Intermediate).

Fifteen basic skills remained: Cultivation(Basic), Cat Language(Basic), Refining: Defense(Basic), Dragon-Catcher Hand(Basic), Bird Language(Basic), Diatribe(Basic), Gastronomy(Basic), Heavenly Voice(Basic), Transfiguration(Basic), Qi Divination(Basic), Water Spirit Constitution(Basic), Dragon Seeking Formula(Basic), Poison Immunity(Basic), Bug Language(Basic), Acupuncture(Basic).

As for skills with 100% proficiency: Heart Destroying Palm, Wind Legs, Biology, Chemistry, Calligraphy, Drawing, Ball Games, Western Medicine, Deutsche, Russian…

He already had five advanced skills, and each of them was very practical. Not only were they able to increase his combat effectiveness, but it was also able to increase the combat effectiveness of those around him.

When he saw his intermediate skills however, Ye Lingchen could not help but sigh. Wood Spirit Constitution was good, but Dog Language left him speechless.

Now that he could communicate with dogs perfectly with his intermediate Dog Language, what use was there to upgrade it to advanced?

Still, he had been coveting the Wood Spirit Constitution for a long time and he was determined to upgrade it.

’10 million popularity points are at stake and it must not end up being used for Dog Language!’

Ye Lingchen prayed in his heart, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva and… Started!

He used up 10 million popularity points to upgrade his advanced skills!

The dark golden glow flickered across both skills quickly. The speed was so fast that Ye Lingchen’s heart began beating rapidly too.

With only two choices, his heart palpitated even more and felt increasingly nervous.

‘Wood Spirit Constitution! Please let it be Wood Spirit Constitution!’

Ye Lingchen roared in his heart.

Finally, the speed of the glow slowed gradually and Ye Lingchen’s gaze became serious.

Ding!

With a soft sound, the glow finally froze on Wood Spirit Constitution (intermediate)!

F*CK!

Ye Lingchen’s heart suddenly felt relieved and he cursed smugly.

After the dazzling light flickered—

Wood Spirit Constitution(Advanced): Peak wood constitution attributes. Your affinity with plants has reached MAX. You now have the power to control plants!
